Chapter 862 Ninety-nine years plus preferential leasehold
"Fourth, I have good news for you!" After the Grandmaster picked up the phone, Boss Zhong's voice full of joy rang out.
"The four of us spent two months in Mozambique, not only in Maputo and Gaza, but also in Inhambane, Manica, Sofala and even in the northernmost Zambizia. What a place, what a place! We were all amazed at how fertile the land was. I think that the land here is more fertile than the best land in our country, and even the black soil in Liaodong is not as good as the land here. My God, the grass here is all one person tall, how fertile the land must be!"
The grandmaster smiled and said, "Boss, I have been to the provinces you mentioned, but I once drove your younger siblings there on the prairie!"
"Haha, I've forgotten about it. I said the fourth, let's settle in Mozambique, the land situation here is so good! This is simply a large piece of virgin land that has never been developed!"
Of course, the Grandmaster thought to himself. The province of Gaza is located between the Limpo and Shangane rivers, both of which are very rich in water, and Mozambique is also an important habitat for African wildebeests, with hundreds of thousands or even millions of African wildebeests in the territory. These wildebeests will pass through Gaza Province during their migration, and for hundreds of thousands of years, the "organic fertilizer" left by these millions of wildebeest during their migration has all cheapened this land, and it is no wonder that the land here is not fertile.
The Grandmaster asked, "Boss, have you been in contact with the higher-ups over there?"
"Well, I have been in contact with them, and I have had a few in-depth exchanges with their president and the Minister of Agriculture. Both President Armando and Minister Karaman are very interested in the idea of farming and pasture farming in Gaza Province, and it is clear that they are very welcome to us to do large-scale farming and pasture. ”
"Did they make any conditions?"
"What else can they offer? Oh my God, I really never thought that this place would be so poor. Hehe, to tell you a joke, most of the local aborigines are all in an iron pot. The house where these natives lived, it couldn't be called a house at all, it was just a few branches built up and covered with a layer of grass, and this was where they lived. Once he moves, Brother Hei will put the big iron pot on top of his head, and then lead the small one to leave, we think it's incredible, but people are happy in it...... Immeasurable Tianzun, buddy, I'm really eye-opening. ”
Boss Zhong sighed for a while before he continued: "People are poor and fertile, this is the basic situation over there. It is definitely better to grow food there than at home, but unfortunately the local aborigines don't know how to grow food at all, and they are blind to such a fertile land. Because the locals don't grow food, they often go hungry. As the president and the minister of agriculture for these ordinary people, these Mozambican high-level officials certainly want us to go there to grow food, at least we can produce food to make up for the huge food shortage in their country, so they don't have any requirements at all. Oh, if there's a requirement, it's that once our farms have food production, they want to be able to buy our food at their domestic prices. ”
This is not a requirement at all, in fact, since the Grandmaster planned to build a large farm and ranch in Africa, he has been thinking about selling grain to his black brothers in Africa.
Because it is almost impossible to buy food back home.
In this world, food prices vary from country to country, but one thing is for sure, Dahua's domestic food prices are the highest in the world.
Just like Dahua's rice, the domestic purchase price is basically 1.3 yuan a catty. If it is converted to Huaxia coins in the previous life, it is close to ten yuan a catty. If the price of rice in Huaxia in the previous life was such a price, it is estimated that the farmers and uncles would be able to wake up happily from sleeping.
The main reason for this situation is Dahua's protection of domestic grain.
Dahua is the country with the largest grain consumption in the world, but the 2.5 billion mu of arable land can only ensure that the domestic people are fed.
It is not that Dahua does not import grain from abroad, but the imported grain and cash crops are used for industrial purposes, and the imported grain and cash crops will not enter Dahua's domestic grain circulation market.
Just like corn in the United States, Dahua's import price is much lower than the purchase price of domestic corn, but these imported corn can only be used for feed, starch and other industrial products. Therefore, even if the price of domestic corn is much higher than that of imported corn, Dahua's domestic farmers will not be affected by this.
Agriculture is the foundation of a country, and Dahua would rather buy domestic grain at a high price due to losses than let go of the grain market and let low-priced grain from abroad hit the domestic grain market.
Dahua is also the most powerful country in the world, and no one wants to provoke it. Therefore, Dahua has been so strong to protect its domestic food industry, and the rest of the world is no different.
If you are not convinced, let's compare and compare and see if your food is good or the ICBM and aircraft carrier battle group in my Dahua hand is powerful!
That's how Lao Tzu hangs! You can't do it even if you're not convinced!
Therefore, even if the Grandmaster is a Dahua person, but your grain is not grown in China, then you will not be able to enter the Dahua grain market.
Not to mention that the Grandmaster is just a Jeju King, even His Majesty the Emperor Hwa will not break this bottom limit that has been insisted on for hundreds of years!
Therefore, no matter how low the price of the grain grown by the Grandmaster in Africa, it is impossible to sell it in Dahua. This food can only be exported to other countries or simply consumed locally.
Besides, the cost of growing food in a place like Mozambique is much lower than that of other countries, and even if it is sold to the black brother, there is definitely a lot of profit to be made.
"Boss, we can agree to their request, anyway, our grain can't be sold back to China, it can be consumed locally, and it can save freight. Promise them, but we also have to ask for as long as possible to extend the lease of the land, preferably for a period of ninety-nine years plus the right of first refusal!"
Boss Zhong laughed, "Damn, you're really ruthless fourth! But I like it! Don't worry, as long as you and the sixth agree, then I'm ready to have a good talk with their president and the minister of agriculture." In addition, you can find a barrister for me in China, and if the negotiation is over, a lawyer is required to sign the contract. ”
"Okay! I'll leave this matter to me, and I'll have the lawyer come to you tomorrow!"
