The corn in the village had been completely harvested, and the only land not contracted by Jiang Xiaobai in the entire Nanwan Village was the dozen or so acres owned by Liu Changhe's family.
Upon receiving Jiang Xiaobai's notice, the construction team had entered the village early in the morning. Several excavators, roaring and bustling, had started working in the village.
The originally scattered plots had been consolidated, and the ridges were removed, increasing the land use efficiency and merging the formerly fragmented plots into larger blocks.
The villagers came out of their homes, watching the excavators clawing at the land that had been tilled by their ancestors for generations.
Some astute villagers had already realized the hidden opportunities. Jiang Xiaobai's contracting of the land surely meant he was planning to plant something. Regardless of what he planted, it needed to be maintained, which meant manpower was required.
