Chapter 862: Great Changes in Hometown
For Wu Xiaozheng, after the annual meeting, this year's work will really come to an end.
The next day, when Shen Mo, Liu Zhijun and others had to be busy with the company's Spring Festival holiday arrangements, he returned to Xiangshui with his family.
Of course, there were also Zhuang Ningwen, Ma Li and Zhang Ying who returned with him.
Zhuang Ningwen followed him home for the New Year, and as for Zhang Ying and Ma Li, they wanted to return to their hometown in Xiangshui.
Of course, they were not in a hurry to go back, but to follow Wu Xiaozheng to see the legendary Xiangshui New Village.
Speaking of which, Wu Xiaozheng hasn't been back for months.
And this time, he soon felt the great changes in his hometown.
On the way back, he found that the entire Shonan region had undergone certain changes.
What made him feel the most was the large number of vegetable greenhouses on both sides of the road.
This made Wu Xiaozheng very interested.
You must know that the appearance of vegetable greenhouses in southern Hunan is his suggestion to Yang Guiping during the Spring Festival last year, and then Chengguan Town took the lead in inviting experts from the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences to build the first batch of vegetable greenhouses.
He didn't expect that now the vegetable greenhouse has expanded to the entire Shonan region.
For this reason, he also deliberately stopped the car, walked into a vegetable greenhouse to take a look, and found that most of the vegetables planted in it were the raw vegetables needed by Chef Wu's food processing factory, such as peppers, soybeans, radish, beans, kohlrabi, etc.
In this way, these vegetable greenhouses are supporting growers in food processing plants.
This is the change that Wu Xiaozheng is most happy to see.
As a relatively underdeveloped region, the agricultural population accounts for more than 85% of the total population, and for most rural families, their economic resources are nothing more than two points, one is farming, and the other is going out to work.
If you go out to work, only young and middle-aged people can afford it, and there is also uncertainty, so most rural people still make a fuss about their own one-third of an acre.
Before that, farming was also unreliable, for example, at this time last year, many farmers wanted to cry because of the unsalable turnips.
It's different now.
With the existence of Chef Wu's food processing factory, growing cash crops has become a stable and reliable source of income for most farmers.
Speaking of which, the reason why there are vegetable greenhouses all over the Shonan region has a lot to do with the rapid development of food processing plants.
In the beginning, when the food factory was just starting out, the procurement of raw materials for agricultural products was limited to cooperative farmers in Chengguan Town.
Gradually, the cooperative farmers in Chengguan Town could no longer meet the raw material supply needs of the food processing factory, and the scope of procurement slowly expanded to the entire Xiangshui County, and eventually to the entire southern Hunan region.
In the process of development, Chef Wu has explored a new type of cooperation model.
In this new type of cooperation, Chef Wu no longer signs underwriting contracts directly with farmers, but with townships one by one.
Every quarter, Chef Wu will make a plan according to the raw material demand of the three subordinate enterprises in the next six months, and after the plan is completed, the raw material procurement index will be issued to each cooperative township, and the purchase guide price will be given in advance.
After obtaining their own procurement indicators, the cooperative townships will decompose the indicators to the farmers in their own townships and towns, so that they can plant in a planned manner.
Then when it comes to the harvest season, it will be purchased by the township and sent to Chef Wu.
In this way, farmers still do not have to worry about the problem of unsalable agricultural products, and Chef Wu has also simplified the procurement process.
This is another win-win cooperation model.
For farmers, they have a stable and reliable income.
As far as the government is concerned, they have done practical things for the local people, have achieved results, and can also obtain a certain amount of financial revenue as a result.
For Chef Wu, the raw materials are also guaranteed.
Speaking of which, in the Shonan area, there is also a very interesting thing that has happened, that is, the grain station system that is about to close its doors has been resurrected from the dead, and it has good benefits.
This is also the reason why Wu's enterprise held an annual meeting, and Liao Hongcai must lead the team to support the party.
A high-speed development of Wu's enterprise has benefited the people of the entire Shonan region, and the government's performance has also been reflected.
I'm really embarrassed not to hold this scene.
The changes in the Shonan region are not limited to vegetable greenhouses.
Another big change is that new houses are being built everywhere.
For the farmers, their quest is really simple.
They are busy every day, and their most basic need is to keep the family fed and clothed.
After the basic needs are met, there is another higher pursuit, that is, to build a big house to make the family live more comfortably.
Many farmers have been busy all their lives, and their biggest pursuit is to be able to build a decent and beautiful house.
In the Shonan region, many people's pursuit has accelerated again.
With money in hand, many farmers began to renovate their houses.
Due to historical reasons, most of the farmhouses in the Shonan area were dilapidated adobe houses or even thatched houses.
Now, many adobe and thatched houses have been torn down and replaced by beautiful, spacious and bright red brick and cement houses, and many new houses are still under construction.
It can be said that the entire Shonan area has become a large construction site.
For this change, the deepest feeling is Zhuang Ningwen, who came to the countryside for the first time in China.
"When I was in the United States before, I saw a lot of propaganda photos about the rural areas in China, which is different from what I saw!"
Wu Xiaozheng smiled and did not answer.
But at this time his heart was proud.
He was thinking that if Zhuang Ningwen had come to China a few years ago and came to the southern Hunan region, then she would not have said such a thing.
Because the rural areas of southern Hunan at that time were not much different from those photos abroad that deliberately publicized how poor and backward China was.
And the reason why there is such a huge change now is related to him and the development of his Wu enterprise.
This gave him a great sense of accomplishment again.
"There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy. ”
He couldn't help but think of this sentence in Du Fu's "Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind".
Du Da Poet's dream is now being gradually realized by him in another way, and it is difficult not to be proud.
"Don't worry, what you see is only the past of Chinese mainland, now it is different, China has embarked on the track of rapid development, this change, will be faster and faster year by year, soon, domestic development will catch up with the United States." ”
Wu Xiaozheng still said this to Zhuang Ningwen very proudly.
Wu Minxia, who was following on the side, also interjected.
"This is not a big change, if you want to say that there is a big change, you have to go to see our Xiangshui New Village, you can see it in a while. ”
Xiangshui New Village, a place that Wu Xiaozheng can be more proud of.
