Chapter 61: Rouge Rice

Just as Li Ming and Liang Weidong were eating peanuts, drinking liquor, and chatting, the TV in the small restaurant was turned on by the boss.

The two unconsciously looked at the TV, which happened to broadcast the news of the local station in Shonan City.

I saw a female host say: "Good news is frequent, and the research of rouge rice of our county Academy of Agricultural Sciences has made great progress......"

Later, before the host finished speaking, Li Ming heard Liang Weidong let out a long sigh.

Raising his eyebrows, he asked, "Weidong, what are you sighing?" ”

Liang Weidong shook his head and said with some emotion: "It's a failure again." ”

Li Ming: "......"

Seeing that Li Ming didn't understand what he meant, Liang Weidong said: "Don't listen to the news and frighten, he said that there has been major progress, but in fact he has failed again, just find a good way to say it for yourself." ”

Li Ming also had a little understanding of the technical terms in this regard, and said with a smile: "Failure is failure, why are you so excited." ”

mentioned this incident, Liang Weidong came to the fire: "Can I not be excited, I am in charge of the agriculture of our county, because farming is not profitable, the farmers in our county are less than half of what they were ten years ago, and a large area of high-quality farmland is uncultivated, and I am sad to death." ”

"What does that have to do with rouge." Li Ming asked puzzled.

"You don't know, this rouge rice is a treasure, the price of a kilogram has reached 4,000 yuan, I thought that the Academy of Agricultural Sciences could study the method of large-scale cultivation of rouge rice, so that farmers can come back to farm, but this year, there is no hope." Liang Weidong said angrily.

Li Ming didn't listen to other words, only the price of this rouge rice made Li Ming hear it.

He asked: "How much can this rouge rice yield per acre of land under normal circumstances?" ”

"According to the estimation of the occasionally successful cultivation of cochineal rice, one acre of land is about 20 kilograms."

"How much is in demand?" Li Ming asked with a glint in his eyes.

"It's too big, don't you know, isn't our country rich, because of the propaganda of the Kyoto Red Society, a large number of rich people in the country want to buy rouge rice.

Because the place of origin is in our southern part of Shonan, every year at the end of autumn, a big businessman calls to inquire.

So far, according to the demand I have learned, at least dozens of tons are needed, and this is still under the condition that the price remains the same, and if the price of cochineal rice is greatly reduced, there must be more people willing to spend money to buy it. ”

This rouge rice once appeared in "Dream of Red Mansions", the old grandmother of the Jia family, a nobleman in Kyoto during the Qing Dynasty, accidentally got a bowl of rouge rice sent by others, and after eating a bite, she sighed that the taste was particularly sweet and couldn't bear to eat a second bite, and gave it to his granddaughter-in-law Wang Xifeng.

Li Ming calculated, 20 kilograms per mu of land, 4,000 yuan per kilogram, that is, 80,000 yuan, and 100 acres of land is 2 tons, worth 8 million.

There are more than 300,000 yuan in his pocket, and it is not a problem to contract a few hundred acres of land to get a dozen tons of output, thinking that he can make so much money from farming, Li Ming said excitedly: "Weidong, can you get me the seeds of rouge rice?" ”

Liang Weidong said inexplicably: "What are you doing?" ”

"Farming."

"Stop, will you?"

Li Ming really can't, but with the ancient tree clone, will he worry that he won't be able to plant it?

Thousand-year-old ginseng itself can be cultivated with the spiritual fluid of ancient trees, not to mention this kind of rice that grows in one year.

"You don't care if I can get it, you just say if you can get it." Li Ming asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes, you can't get more, a few catties are still fine." Liang Weidong said speechlessly.

"Okay, if you have seeds."

Li Ming didn't care about the number of seeds at all, even if there was only one seed, Li Ming believed that as long as a drop of spiritual liquid passed, this seed could be turned into a bumper harvest in an instant.

Ever since the spiritual fluid produced by the ancient tree clone doubled, Li Ming had always wanted to find a better industry to do.

Ginseng is not a long-term solution, and I can always keep getting thousand-year-old ginseng and hundred-year-old ginseng, which is too suspicious.

If someone wants to investigate, they can find the problem at once.

Ginseng is not high-tech, to put it bluntly, it is a kind of herb that grows in the ground, and if Li Ming can find it continuously, it will naturally be followed by people who are interested in it.

If it is found that Li Ming did not go to the ginseng production area, he can continue to make ginseng in the house alone.

The secret of this ancient tree clone in Li Ming's hands is bound to be unkept, there are three sects and nine streams in society, and Li Ming doesn't want to get into unnecessary trouble.

Let Li Ming open a ginseng company by himself to falsify accounts, and he has to recruit people, which is easier to be discovered.

Now hearing Liang Weidong talk about rouge rice, Li Ming suddenly found a solution, isn't it over planting rice by himself.

Dozens of tons of demand, a year is hundreds of millions of profits, rather than frightened to cultivate ginseng, it is better to plant rice directly, when the time comes, take advantage of the slack period, occasionally get a few thousand years of ginseng, make a little extra money, no one will doubt, how good.

Moreover, the most important thing is that Li Ming believes that Cheng Fei's family, who is in the jade business, has a net income of tens of millions a year.

Farming and selling ginseng by himself is definitely richer than Cheng Fei, thinking that the bumper harvest of rouge rice he planted in a few months will be able to earn tens of millions of income, Li Mingzhen wanted to show off in front of Cheng Fei.

The best way to deal with this kind of rich second generation who likes to use money to bully others is to be richer than him.

Is there anything more cool than slapping your face with money?

Just as he was proud, Li Ming suddenly thought of the problem of later sales, and said to Liang Weidong: "Brother, if my rouge rice is planted, who will buy it." ”

Liang Weidong said speechlessly: "If you can really grow it, I will help you contact the buyer and ensure that you produce and sell as much as you want." ”

"Then I'll thank you first."

……

Just as the two were chatting, Liang Weidong's mobile phone rang.

Seeing the three words Chen Tingting on the caller ID, Liang Weidong hurriedly said: "Brother, I'll answer the phone." ”

"I'm eating at a small restaurant."

……

"I'll send you the specific location on WeChat."

Seeing that Liang Weidong looked groveling when he called, Li Mingshu smiled and said, "Who made you so scared." ”

Liang Weidong, who hung up the phone, said with palpitations: "Who else can there be, the head of the Emei faction." ”

"Who?" Li Ming didn't understand.

"Exterminator - Chen Tingting." Liang Weidong gestured with the strength of the wine.

"Oh, I'll go, why did you give him such a nickname." Li Ming couldn't help laughing.

"You haven't seen it, we grew up together in the dean of the municipal party committee since childhood, although I am a few years older than him, but this girl has been a tyrant in the courtyard since she was a child." Liang Weidong recalled.

"You're still afraid of her." Li Ming said in surprise.

"Can you not be afraid, this little girl is amazing, her mouth is sweet and beautiful, and she is young, all the elders in the compound spoil her, who dares to bully her, she cries and complains, and in the end, we are inevitably beaten by our own parents."

Thinking of a sweet little girl crying in front of her parents, she pointed at herself and said that she was bullying her, if she was her mother and father, she would definitely not be able to spare herself, not to mention that she was the daughter of a colleague in the yard, and she couldn't spare herself.

Li Ming shuddered and said, "It's amazing." ”

"What's even more powerful, after this girl found out that we couldn't help her, she directly pulled up a group of teams and became the eldest sister, and she bullied us if she had nothing to do, alas, the days in the compound back then, not to mention how bitter it was."

Li Ming: "......"

As soon as Liang Weidong finished speaking, a sharp brake sounded, and the two looked at the door, only to see Chen Tingting, who looked like a princess, walking down from a white Mercedes-Benz car.

When you go up the stairs, you can flick your hair naturally, revealing a pretty face.

After walking in the door, I saw Liang Weidong and Li Ming, and walked straight over, and the high heels made a "click" sound when they stepped on the tiles.

Liang Weidong hurriedly greeted him and said attentively: "Oh, isn't this Tingting girl, why do you have time to find us." ”

Chen Tingting specially thanked Li Ming for coming, thinking that Li Ming saved her father, but she spoke to him like that at the time, and she was very sorry in her heart.

Again, Chen Tingting is also very curious, what kind of person is this Li Ming, the light breeze that says go, makes Chen Tingting very surprised.

Chen Tingting has a feeling of seeing a master outside the world.

Directly ignoring Liang Weidong, who was attentive, Chen Tingting walked directly in front of Li Ming, first bowed to Li Ming very seriously, and said, "Mr. Li, thank you for saving my father's life." ”

Listening to Liang Weidong's words just now, Li Ming thought that Chen Tingting was an arrogant and domineering woman, but seeing Chen Tingting's performance, Li Ming thought to himself, this Chen Tingting is still a very educated girl.

Dodging to avoid Chen Tingting's movements, Li Ming said with a smile: "Don't bow, I can't stand this." ”

Chen Tingting knew that a humble gentleman like Li Ming ate her set, straightened up, and said a little shyly: "I didn't speak in a good tone to you just now, please don't mind." ”

Liang Weidong, who was beside him, hurriedly handed over a stool and said, "Tingting, Li Ming is my brother, how can he mind." ”

Li Ming nodded and said, "I understand your mood at the time, it's just a mess if you care." ”

"Thank you." Chen Tingting blushed and said embarrassedly.

Recalling her impulsive tone at home just now, if it were her own, Chen Tingting would definitely be very angry.

I thought that Li Ming would treat him coldly when he saw him, but I didn't expect Li Ming to care at all.

The original awkward atmosphere dissipated in Li Ming's humble and gentlemanly style.

After sitting down, Chen Tingting said curiously to Liang Weidong: "Brother Weidong, how did you know such a miracle doctor." ”

When Liang Weidong's father was in a car accident, Chen Tingting was still studying abroad, and after hearing Liang Weidong tell Li Ming about saving his father's name, he said with admiration: "Mr. Li, I didn't expect you to be a master in the world." ”

Li Ming waved his hand and said, "Don't hold me high, I'm just an ordinary person, and I'll just say that I have studied Chinese medicine for two years." ”

Although Chen Tingting knew that Li Ming saved her father because of Liang Weidong, the tone of what she said just now made Chen Tingting feel guilty about Li Ming.

Chen Tingting, who thought she was powerful, hoped to repay Li Ming, so she asked from the side: "Mr. Li, I don't know what you do." ”

If you are a businessman who works hard in the society, you will hear the city. The eldest daughter will be grateful to Dade excitedly when she asks like this.

It's a pity that Li Ming is an exception, seeing Chen Tingting's slightly arrogant tone, Li Ming said with a smile: "I'm about to be a farmer." ”

"Peasantry?" Chen Tingting was stunned.

Seeing that Chen Tingting also encountered the same problem as himself, Liang Weidong snickered in his heart, if Li Ming is a person who can settle with money, why should Liang Weidong make so much effort to make friends with Li Ming.

He explained to Chen Tingting with a smile: "My brother is really going to be a farmer. ”
