"Of course we can charge it~ But I don't know if we can charge it now~" Liang Sanping spread his hands and said: "It is normal for foreign research institutions to get sponsorship from enterprises. ”

But at home, at least for now, it won't work. Xia Zhendong could only sigh, the situation in China is not the same as abroad. At this time, the high-voltage line is still in storage.

No one dared to touch this line lightly, and the damage in that catastrophe was too great. Even now, everyone still doesn't dare to take it lightly......

"Forget it, it would be nice if we could get those machines. If there is money involved, then it is really unclear......" Xia Zhendong smiled bitterly.

This is the current situation, and the reforms continue. But everyone cautiously tentatively did not dare to take a step or enlarge their steps. I am afraid that if I make a mistake, I will fall into the abyss.

After resting for a while, Liu Lao and the others got up to freshen up in the afternoon, and then took Xia Zhendong directly to the Ministry of Agriculture and Reclamation to make a report.

"Hahaha...... Old Chen! You came all the way from afar, and you didn't rest for a while before rushing to me to report?! Don't be in a hurry......"

In the Ministry of Reclamation, Gao Donglei, the current Minister of Reclamation, smiled and invited Chen Lao and others to take a seat. After greeting them one by one, he patted Xia Zhendong on the shoulder and said.

"Xiao Xia, I have listened to the report of the comrades below. You've been doing a good job! This is very good, the work of the revolution must not be slackened! ”

"Yes! I have always kept your teachings in mind, and I dare not slack off! Seeing that Xia Zhendong was extremely excited, he bowed slightly to Minister Gao Donglei and said respectfully.

Gao Donglei nodded with satisfaction, and after leading everyone to their seats, the secretary served tea and quietly left the reception room.

"This is Xiao Liang, right?! You beat up Comrade Gou Jufeng at the banquet, this has spread in the imperial capital! But seeing Gao Donglei, he pointed at Liang Sanping with a smile and said: "I didn't expect you to be so hot when you are young, but it's not good to beat people!" ”

Gao Donglei is also an iron man who came out during the war, and this old man can be found in the War of Resistance and Liberation. And he is also the Minister of Agriculture and Reclamation, who has just resumed work for a long time and was transferred to the post last year.

"Hey, hey, hey...... This is young and angry. I couldn't hold back when I came...... Liang Sanping scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Be sure to pay attention next time!" Note ......"

"Stinky boy......" Gao Donglei scolded with a smile, and then sat down on the sofa and said, "Lao Liu, I have read the report and research results you gave, and I have transferred to it." Everyone is concerned about this matter! ”

"Tell me what you're going to do."

When it came to business, Gao Donglei's face was solemn. Liu Lao and the others spread out their notebooks and began to state their opinions and research results to Gao Donglei one by one.

“…… The geographical location of Qiong Island is unique, where the temperature is suitable for growing vegetables and fruits all year round. As a result, we included cucumbers, tomatoes, bok choy, and Shanghai greens...... and other vegetables were planted in research. We found that they are growing very well in Qiongdao. ”

"Of course, if it is planted on a large scale. Then we still have a certain need for fertilizer and pesticide input. But the cost is relatively low......"

"The total area of vegetable cultivation in Japan is 8.208 million mu, including 318,000 mu of greenhouse vegetables. In this respect, China is relatively backward at present. Although there is a certain amount of greenhouse vegetable cultivation, there is still a big gap compared to Japan. ”

"Japan's vegetable planting area accounts for one-tenth of the country's total cultivated area, with an annual output of 31.1 billion catties and an average yield of 3,780 catties per mu. Japan has a strong vegetable consumption habit, they consume an average of 254 catties of vegetables per person per year, and the consumption level accounts for the second place in the world, second only to Italy, which is the first in vegetable consumption. ”

"Italy consumes the most vegetables per capita in the world. They consume an average of 306 catties per person. ”

"Although Japan has a high self-sufficiency rate in vegetables. Even up to 99%. However, they also have times when they are short of vegetables and rely on imports. According to what we have gathered, there will be a shortage of vegetables in Japan during some special months. So this became our opportunity. ”

"For example, every year in February, Japan lacks a small amount of onions and cabbage in February. In August, a small amount of tomatoes and cucumbers are missing. In such seasons, the vegetables they need can only be imported from abroad. ”

"In 1976, for example, Japan imported 86,262 tons of vegetables. The transaction value reached 8 billion yen. According to the current international foreign exchange price of 1 US dollar to 360 yen, this is more than 200 million US dollars. And this is the reason why we have calculated that the Japanese vegetable import market can be 200 million US dollars! ”

After a pause, Liu Lao's gaze turned to Liang Sanping. Liang Sanping saw the old man's encouraging gaze, and his heart suddenly warmed. But he saw him say to Minister Gao Donglei, who was contemplating the record.

"One of the more important reasons why we can export vegetables to Japan is that Japan is now developing and industrializing at a rapid pace. In particular, the increase in the use of chemical fertilizers in land has caused severe industrial pollution. ”

"In Japan itself, there are already voices calling for environmental protection. And on Qiongdao, at least for now, we have not been polluted by industrialization. This will also be a selling point for us to sell vegetables in Japan. ”

As he spoke, Liang Sanping opened his notebook and said to Gao Donglei: "Moreover, we also have the advantage of shipping. From Qiongdao to Japan, you can rely on sea transportation. Some of the vegetables can be transported to Japan by sea. This is a huge cost savings. At the same time, it also ensures the freshness of the vegetables......"

"And what about planting?! How much does it need to be invested, and how much arable land is suitable for vegetable cultivation in Qiongdao?! How do you proceed with the handover of vegetables on the Japanese side?! How to ensure the sales situation?! ”

When Gao Donglei heard this, he immediately raised his own question. And Liang Sanping closed his notebook and said to Gao Donglei: "So, this time we came to the imperial capital." On the one hand, it is to seek the support of the state so that we can give it a try. On the other hand, I also hope that the state can provide us with some assistance in this regard......"

Liang Sanping was a little helpless, this is not the time when the translators of later generations are running all over the street. It's not the time when Japanese companies are everywhere. At this time, if you want to contact foreign companies, the only way to get in touch with the country is to get through the country.

Of course, with a bit of luck, you'll come across a great opportunity. But Liang Sanping doesn't think that luck will always patronize him, and it would be smoother to enter this industry in a reliable way.

"In fact, we are also exporting vegetable seeds to Japan now......" Liang Sanping couldn't help but sigh when he saw Gao Donglei silent.

"Oh?! When have we ever exported seeds to Japan?! How come I, the Minister of Agriculture and Reclamation, don't know about this matter?! Gao Donglei was extremely surprised, it is said that he should know such a thing!

When Liang Sanping heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The Japanese didn't buy seeds through our hands. Our seeds were first sold to the Xiangjiang side, and then the Baodao people bought them. In the end, it changed hands to Japan......"

"Including our green hemp leaf cabbage, Xinmei radish, Jinyan No. 4 yellow, SC mustard, Zhangqiu green onion, Wuhan red cabbage, cantaloupe, Hanzhong winter leek, Guangzhou gourd...... Wait. Matsumoto Seed Company, Nagano Prefecture, Japan, all have sales ......"

Gao Donglei's face sank when he heard this, and the domestic export of seeds to the Xiangjiang area was for the sake of compatriots. I thought that Xiangjiang would be able to grow these seeds and achieve a certain level of self-sufficiency in vegetable supply.

And Xiangjiang was sold to Treasure Island, which is also acceptable. In the final analysis, although there is an ideological opposition with Treasure Island. But in the end, it's all family. It's okay to turn a blind eye.

But unexpectedly, they took the seeds and sold them to the Japanese for money. Won't we sell this ourselves?! Do you still need to go through your hands to make you an extra sum?!

"Humph! I'll bring this up at the meeting! But seeing Gao Donglei's face sank, he snorted coldly: "Since someone has done it, then we can't be regarded as setting a precedent." ”

After getting Gao Donglei's approval, Liang Sanping finally breathed a sigh of relief. Diplomatic relations between China and Japan were restored during the Tanaka era. It was not until 1978 that the two sides finally established the Sino-Japanese Treaty of Peace and Friendship after intensive negotiations on 16 points.

At least for now, the two sides will try to engage under the treaty. And it was also because he knew that the country had established this treaty that Liang Sanping dared to propose to export vegetables directly to Japan.

"You rest in the imperial capital first, and I'll do my best to make a report to the above. If necessary, you may report to your leaders in person. After Gao Donglei neatly recorded some of the situation in his notebook, he said, "It won't be long before there will be news." ”

The minister has said so, what else can everyone say?! Everyone laughed and talked for a while, Gao Donglei encouraged them a few words, and then sent them out of his office.

This is also a courtesy, and it is rare for a minister to send out of the office. But Liang Sanping knew that this was Gao Donglei's respect for Liu Lao and others.

After returning to the guest house, Liu Lao and the others washed their faces and called Liang Sanping and Xia Zhendong to their rooms.

"Xiao Xia, Xiao Liang, do you think our mention will be able to pass guò this time?!" Liu Lao and the others were still a little uneasy, after all, the objective difficulties mentioned by Gao Donglei were still there.

If you contact the Japanese side for sales, how to ship. These are all big problems that require the coordination of several other departments. These tomes aren't that easy to communicate with.

Yes, Liu Lao and others have no bottom in their hearts.

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. We've worked hard, and we can't control the next thing, right?! Liang Sanping smiled and said with relief to Liu Lao and the others.

"However, I am confident that the higher authorities will fully consider our request. After all, this is related to the issue of our foreign exchange reserves, and our country is very short of foreign exchange now......"
