Chapter 933: Old Chen's support
Hearing what Xiao Ping said, Chen Lao immediately asked with interest: "Listen to what you mean, are you planning to use this money for charity?
Xiao Ping went around in such a big circle, waiting for the question of Chen Lao. Seeing that his plan was successful, he immediately said with a solemn expression: "To tell you the truth, I recently opened a seed base in Wuxi City, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, in cooperation with local farmers. A while ago, during the winter wheat harvest season, I learned that grain farmers in several towns near the seed base had been pitted miserably......"
Xiao Ping told Chen Lao what he heard about the grain farmers from Chen Lan, especially the tragic situation of Chen Lan's classmate who threw himself into the river because of this, and even more made a big deal of it.
After listening to Xiao Ping's words, Old Chen's relaxed expression gradually became solemn. While the plight of these farmers deserves sympathy, the issue of food security cannot be ignored for Chen, the country's leader.
It's just that the grain farmers around Wuxi City can buy fake seeds, and the state can allocate a certain amount of funds for disaster relief. However, if this situation is common throughout the province or even the whole country, it will cause a large-scale reduction in grain production or even a non-harvest, which is a very serious problem.
Xiao Ping explained in detail what happened to the grain farmers, and then explained to Chen Lao: "Didn't I set up a charitable foundation, I just want to use this money to help those grain farmers, try to help them make up for some losses, I can't let them work hard for more than half a year, and then they have to pay for it, and even ruin their family, right?"
"So you plan to use this money to help those grain farmers. Hearing this, Chen Lao also nodded again and again: "This idea is good. As an entrepreneur, you should have a sense of social responsibility, if everyone thinks like you. This society is much more harmonious. ”
Xiao Ping smiled modestly: "I'm not as noble as you say, but I just look at those grain farmers who are miserable." I want to help them. It was intended to use the funds of the charitable foundation, but now there is this windfall. You can use the Foundation's funds to help others. ”
Chen Lao nodded again and again: "Your idea is good, hurry up and get things done." However, the work of rescuing the peasants must be done, the work of punishing the criminals must not be slackened, and the profiteers who sell fake seeds must be punished!"
Speaking of this, Chen Lao paused for a moment, and then said to the secretary next to him: "Xiao Liu, you go and care about the investigation of this case." Tell the departments concerned that this kind of illegal and criminal behavior must never be tolerated and must be severely punished according to law!"
"I got it. Secretary Liu immediately answered, and then left to call.
Listened to Chen Lao's words. Xiao Ping knew that those guys who sold fake seeds were going to be unlucky. In fact, this kind of case is not difficult to crack, the key is whether the relevant departments pay enough attention. At present, Chen Lao personally intervened, and the days of impunity for those who caged the peasants were already numbered.
"Yes, these guys must not be spared!" Xiao Ping expressed support for Chen Lao's decision, and then shook his head again: "However, I heard that the phenomenon of selling fake seeds is very common now, and I am afraid that a batch of them will be caught and a batch will come, and the most unlucky ones are the vast number of grain farmers." ”
Who is Old Chen? Xiao Ping's abnormal appearance of worrying about the country and the people today already made him feel a little strange. Old Chen glanced at Xiao Ping up and down, shook his head slightly, and said, "Boy." Your performance today is a bit problematic, let's say, what are the intentions of bringing the topic to food farmers?"
Xiao Ping also knew that he couldn't hide it from Chen Lao, and he didn't feel the slightest embarrassment when it was exposed. He just smiled and said, "You see, I just think that instead of letting unscrupulous businessmen sell fake grain seeds to harm farmers, it is better for me to cultivate grain varieties with excellent traits and put them on the market." That's why I'm here to report back to you. Hear from you. ”
Chen Lao raised his eyebrows and said: "This is your company's business behavior, as long as it does not break the law and commit crimes." Why are you asking for my opinion?"
"Grain and vegetables are different. Xiao Ping said with a smile: "This thing is related to the country's food security, and I am afraid that if I plunge into it, I will get into trouble." There's not even a bone left after the most scarf. ”
Chen Lao said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a while, and my consciousness has improved quite quickly." Grain does involve food security, but with the current scale of your Xianhu company, isn't it too much to think about this?"
Xiao Ping said dissatisfiedly: "Old Chen, you look down on people." With the strength of the fairy pot company, it is only a matter of time before it dominates the grain market, and it is only necessary to look at the popularity of jade vegetables, and it will be too late to think about it when the time comes. ”
Hearing Xiao Ping's words, Chen Lao looked at him seriously and said, "Do you really intend to enter the grain market?"
Seeing Xiao Ping nodding again and again, Chen Lao asked him in a deep voice: "Then you should tell me, if the Xianhu Company starts to operate grain seeds, what is the market positioning? How is the price determined? Also, how much is the supply of grain seeds?"
Xiao Ping has also been thinking about these questions recently, and immediately replied at this time: "Food is not as good as jade vegetables, it is a necessity of life, of course, it is aimed at the ordinary market." The price may be slightly higher than that of other grains. However, the high-yield grain varieties launched by the Xianhu company must taste better, so as to ensure that grain farmers will not suffer losses when buying our seeds. As for the supply, it depends on how large the seed base I have, and the larger the scale, the more the supply. ”
Chen Lao thought for a while and nodded: "It's not impossible for you to think about it, the key question now is how much you can increase grain production." If the increase in production is not large, your plan will not make much sense. ”
Xiao Ping groaned: "At present, the cultivation of grain seeds is still in the preliminary stage, and there is no guarantee of how much it can increase production, but ...... Thirty percent should always have. ”
"What? Sancheng!" This time it was Chen Lao's turn to be surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Can you guarantee that there are thirty percent?"
After soaking in the spring in the Demon Refining Pot, the yield of both vegetables and forage has increased significantly. Xiao Ping once asked Wang Dacang to calculate that the increase in the yield of jade vegetables is about 30%, and the situation of grain should be similar.
So in Xiao Ping's view, it is really not a big deal to increase production by three percent. Seeing that Old Chen, who usually collapsed in front of Mount Tai and did not change color, was so surprised, Xiao Ping was a little surprised and said: "It should be guaranteed, jade vegetables are like this, are you so surprised?"
Chen Lao couldn't help but laugh and said: "Boy, do you know how much grain production there is in the country? If it is really like what you said, even if only a small part of the country's grain fields use your grain seeds, it will be of great significance to the country's food security!"
Seeing that Chen Lao attached so much importance to this matter, Xiao Ping also became serious, and said with a serious expression: "Chen Lao, after I go back, I will urge the scientific research department to cultivate high-quality grain varieties as soon as possible, and then carefully calculate the increase in production." Rest assured, you won't be disappointed in the final results. ”
Seeing that Xiao Ping was so confident, Chen Lao also nodded again and again: "Yes, young people should be motivated." Well, when you've grown some of the grain, send some to me, and let me try to see it first. I don't want to really increase the output by 30 percent, even if it is only 10 percent, I will propose it at the meeting and vigorously support you in the name of the country to promote grain varieties!"
It is not easy for anyone to get such a clear commitment from Chen Lao. Of course, Xiao Ping knows that in addition to Chen Lao's concern about food security, trust in himself is also a very important factor.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ping immediately stood up, bowed respectfully to Chen Lao, and said, "Old Chen, please accept my sincere thanks!"
Chen Lao accepted Xiao Ping's salute without dodging, and then asked him with a smile: "What is sincere thanks?
After thanking Chen Lao seriously, Xiao Ping returned to his original lazy appearance, and replied with a smile: "Most of the time it is sincere, but it's ...... Occasionally, there are also one or two perfunctory things. ”
Except for Xiao Ping, no one dared to say such a thing to Chen Lao. However, Chen Lao was very happy when he heard it, pointed at Xiao Ping Dalu and said with a smile: "Ha Luha, this is a big truth, I love to hear it!"
It was rare for the surrounding staff to see Chen Lao smiling so happily, and they all cast envious glances at Xiao Ping. This young man is not simple, he can coax Chen Lao to be so happy, and his future prospects are limitless.
Although every time he meets Xiao Ping, Mr. Chen can always be in a good mood, but there is always more work waiting for him to deal with. The short half hour passed quickly, and Chen Lao had to continue working. Xiao Ping said goodbye with amusement and soon left Zizhu Garden.
This is the first time since Xiao Ping met Chen Lao that he has officially supported his commitment. Although he still seems very calm on the surface, he is actually happy in his heart.
After leaving Zizhu Garden, Xiao Ping, who couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, immediately called Zhang Yuxin and said: "Yuxin, tell you one thing, Elder Chen promised to support me to enter the grain market, as long as I can increase the grain output!"
Zhang Yuxin on the other end of the phone understood the weight of this promise better than Xiao Ping, and couldn't help but be happy for him, and couldn't help but say happily: "Being able to get the support of Chen Lao is very beneficial to our future development, which is great!"
Xiao Ping also nodded again and again: "As long as the company can cultivate high-yield grain varieties, then everything will be fine." ”
Zhang Yuxin encouraged Xiao Ping on the other end of the phone: "Then you have to come on, don't let Chen Lao down." ”
"Don't worry, I'm pretty sure of that. Xiao Ping was not worried about the problem of grain seeds, and then remembered one thing and said: "By the way, do you remember that I told you about the plight of grain farmers? I got a sum of money and wanted to invest it in a charitable foundation to help grain farmers who have suffered losses due to fake seeds, or I will leave this matter to you to be responsible, right?"
Zhang Yuxin is also one of the heads of the charity foundation, Xiao Ping thought that she would agree without hesitation, but Zhang Yuxin refused and said: "No!" (to be continued......)
