Chapter 418: The Trouble of Cooperative Planting
Song Chao and Li Mufei next to him gave Wu Ming a look desperately, and almost said directly that Wu Ming should be careful not to be fooled, but at this time, Ma Wenzheng seemed to be very excited: "If that's the case, then I must thank Mr. Wu." ”
Wu Ming laughed: "Why thank me, this is business, this matter is a matter of earning benefits for me, I didn't think about doing charity or anything, when the time comes, whether it is the local villagers or other people, they will get other dividends, they will get them with their own efforts." ”
Ma Wenzheng sighed: "To be honest, Mr. Wu, I asked you to do this, on the one hand, I want to avoid waiting for the approval process, I still understand you as a person, what to do, that is, you must be resolute and do it quickly, but now the actual situation in Calle County, I'm afraid there is no way to meet you, so I recommend you to use this method."
On the other hand, to be honest, it is also for me personally, so I have a little selfishness, if you do this, you don't need to ask, it will definitely create a great employment advantage for the local area, so that the villagers will most of the time focus on your planting contract, if there is no competition for those mountain hyssop, I believe that the two villages will have a lot less fighting, so that my pressure will be less. ”
Wu Ming nodded, in fact, Wu Ming could already see that Ma Wenzheng was doing this, and there must be self-interested factors in it, but now that he sees that Ma Wenzheng can tell himself openly and honestly, it can be regarded as a relatively upright person: "County Magistrate Ma, you don't have to worry too much about this matter, I have already said it, I am willing to accept this form of cooperation, it is my own business, who will bring benefits and disadvantages to when the time comes, it is all caused by objective conditions, and I don't have any subjective will in it."
But since you think this matter is good for you, then I will be cheeky to ask you for one thing, you said that this cooperative planting project, there must be a precedent, we are all laymen, when the time comes, please find someone to help me draft a cooperation agreement, and then in the later promotion process, help me and the villagers do more propaganda work. ”
"No problem, that's our job in itself. Ma Wenzheng said: "That...... Director Chen, go to this matter immediately, Xiao Zhou, you go to the county government guest house now, open a few rooms for Mr. Wu and them, and ask for the best room. ”
In the past, Wu Ming might have been polite, but now Wu Ming is very clear that Ma Wenzheng is doing this in order to accumulate some political achievements for himself, and since it is good for him to do this, then he should say it.
The money for opening a room, if you can save it, although you don't care much about money now, but after all, money is not blown by the wind, someone helps you spend it, so why break the bank.
After arriving at the guest house, Wu Ming had just closed the door and was about to rest, when he heard a knock at the door, opened the door and looked, no surprise, it was indeed Li Mufei and Song Chao.
Wu Ming looked at these two people and smiled: "What's the matter, what's the matter, why are you in such a hurry to come to me?"
"Wu Ming, did you take the wrong medicine? "Li Mufei said: 'This matter understands that the surnamed Ma treats you as a Kaizi, uses you as his shield, you spend the money, you take the risk, and the matter of making political achievements is his. ’
Wu Ming looked at Song Chao: "You think so too?"
Song Chao nodded: "To be honest, I do think so, but I didn't expect that Mr. Wu, you would really be fooled, do you have any other plans, and you want to use this matter to slap Ma Wenzheng?
Wu Ming smiled: "It's not early, it's time for dinner, by the way, the last time I came here, I remembered that the old Bayi barbecue here seems to be very good, otherwise I will take you to taste it." ”
"Wu Ming, when is it, can you say something serious. Li Mufei was a little anxious.
Wu Ming smiled: "Yes, I'm just talking about business now, what is more important than eating, let's go, I'm dying of hunger." ”
As soon as he walked out of the door of the guest house, Wu Ming saw that the previous two cars were still parked at the door, and the driver was standing next to him and chatting with the doorman of the guest house, and when he saw Wu Ming coming out, he hurried over: 'Mr. Wu, are you going out?'
Wu Ming nodded: "Yes, I'm going out, what's wrong?"
"Magistrate Ma said that he would have a banquet for you in the evening. "The driver said: 'He also said let us wait here, you have come from afar, if it is inconvenient to go out without a car, let us be on standby at any time.' ’
Wu Ming smiled slightly, and said to Song Chao and Li Mufei: "You see, the county magistrate Ma can be regarded as sincere to us, but the driver's brother, if you help me say hello to the county magistrate Ma, just say that we still have things to do now, so we won't eat together tonight, and after our project is confirmed, I will invite the county magistrate Ma to have a few drinks at the celebration banquet." ”
The driver looked a little embarrassed, but he didn't want to disobey Wu Ming's meaning, and immediately called Xiao Zhou, the secretary of the county magistrate of Ma, and Wu Ming said: "Last time, Director Kong of your investment promotion office here seemed to tell us, your Lao Bayi barbecue here seems to be very good, and I feel endless aftertaste after eating, this time I want to take my two friends to go again, then it will trouble you." ”
The driver nodded again and again, and took Wu Ming directly to the restaurant, and after a few people did it, the driver consciously returned to the car and waited for Wu Ming in the car.
Wu Ming asked people to serve some food and drink, and then spoke: "I know what you two think. ”
Li Mufei snorted, angrily picked up the wine glass and drank all the wine inside, grabbing it to cure the cough: "My God, what kind of wine is this, doesn't it mean that people here are forbidden to drink?"
Wu Ming smiled: "Where is there a real ban on alcohol in restaurants, if you have anything to say, say it now." ”
"Hmph, I'm going to say a lot. Li Mufei said: "Wu Ming, I really want to tell you about this matter, cooperative planting, it sounds very unfortunate, but to be honest, the agreement signed between dealers and individual farmers is basically one of the most non-binding agreements."
At that time, we were still in school, and I remember that it was said in the news at that time, when someone came to Panlong Town, they wanted to buy kudzu, and they offered high prices to farmers, and they also paid a deposit in advance, and as a result, when the harvest season, the other party's company disappeared directly, and later someone sued the company to the court, only to find that the company had been liquidated.
Later, those kudzu can only be processed at a cheap price, and it is better to focus on vegetables, you should have an impression of this matter. ”
Wu Ming smiled and nodded: "How could I forget, when I was in the first year of high school, my family was so anxious about my tuition fee, as soon as I heard that this could make money, I signed a contract and directly sent you a deposit at the price of 300 yuan per mu of land, my mother went directly to sign the contract at that time, our family had a total of five acres of land, and a deposit of 1,500 yuan was issued, and I used this money to pay the tuition fee for the second semester." ’
"Yes, but later, my uncle was from the county police department at the time, and he investigated today, and although the company that came to sign the contract with you at that time collapsed, the boss behind the company didn't have anything to do, and the people he sent to buy those kudzu at a cheap price were basically their gang. "Li Mufei said: 'In this way, the kudzu root per mu of land was sold for less than 600 yuan, which is almost not enough for fertilizer and irrigation fees!'
Wu Ming nodded: "Yes, this incident made my mother almost mad, but fortunately, someone found out about this matter later, and it seems that the boss was held responsible, isn't it?"
"Investigate the fart, if you really investigate, can you have compensation?" Li Mufei said: "These are all told to me by my uncle, you see, even if the farmers suffer losses, the local government is responsible for supporting them, and when the time comes, it will be a loss or a loss."
Now that you have changed your position, you are the boss of the company, they are growers, think about it, if the growers break the contract, who will the county government help at that time? Even if you fight a lawsuit with the local court and judge you to win, but with the bad deeds of these people, can they compensate you for the loss?"
Wu Ming smiled: "Yes, yes, what you said is right, Song Chao, what do you have to say, let's hold a criticism meeting today, say everything you need to criticize me, and I will correct it together when I go back." ’
"Wu Ming, I said why can't you be serious!" Li Mufei got angry: "I'm a human being, really." ”
Song Chao also sighed: "Mr. Wu, I mean the same as Li Mufei, and I also think that you have done something inappropriate." ”
Wu Ming smiled: "Okay, well, since you all say so, then I'll tell you what I think."
You all think that if I sign a contract with them, I can only bind me in the end, but I can't bind these growers, and in the end not only will my affairs be delayed, but the deposit I send out will also be wasted, is that what you mean?"
Both of them nodded: "That's what we mean, it doesn't matter if the deposit is lost, anyway, you Wu Ming is rich now, but you must know that if you delay production, the impact will be great." ’
Wu Ming said: "The reason why I agreed to Ma Wenzheng's statement is that I am confident that they will never do this!"
Li Mufei paused for a moment: 'Why, what is your reason, tell me about it?'
Wu Ming nodded and said, "Actually, it's very simple, think about it, the grapes we need are massive, not ten tons or twenty tons, right." ’
"That's right. Li Mufei said: "It's because of the large amount of eggs that you can't put all the eggs in one basket." ”
Wu Ming smiled: "Do you think there is such a big basket in Kahler County that can hold all my eggs? No need to ask, when the time comes, the number of farmers who have signed contracts with me will definitely not be less than 100 households, in such a situation, even if one or two, five or six, or even ten or twenty households default on the contract, will this have a great impact on me?"
Li Mufei paused for a moment: "What do you mean ......?"
"Yes, I'm sure you know that. Wu Ming said: "They may default, but they will never default in all." Because my plantation is here, they can see the benefits of the plantation, and there are interests behind them that drive them to make money from me, not to get a penny after defaulting. ”
"But it's still a bit risky. Li Mufei said: "After all, your agreement is too binding. ”
"Then I'll give you an analogy, if we pay a high price and buy land. Wu Ming said: "That is, we grow grapes for ourselves, we have a large number of skilled workers in Panlong County, but after all, far water does not fight near the fire, we have to recruit local plantation employees at that time, in this case, our costs will increase."
But in the end, as you said, the local water and soil conditions are very difficult to control, and if something goes wrong with us, we don't even have the right to recover at that time.
Therefore, this method may be a bit risky, but in fact, it is the best condition we can do at this stage, besides, after the contract is signed, I will shoot some special technical teams to come over, supervise and supervise them, and give technical guidance at the same time, the final risk is not big. ”
