Chapter 192: Planning for the Coming Year

Liang Sanping was very afraid, and now he is really afraid. He has seen too many things that ruin the credibility and brand he has worked so hard to build because of carelessness or indifference. There are really too many of these kinds of things.

Many people don't have any bad intentions, maybe they just want a little bit of small profits. But in the end, it was they who were buried.

Once Liang Sanping's hometown of Gui Province, he felt that he had lost a few cents. And the liquor that has been banned from being sold by industrial alcohol mixed with water is sold to their relatives.

This ultimately led to the death of a relative who had drunk industrial alcohol and water, and he was imprisoned for it. A little greed is unacceptable, Liang Sanping knows better than anyone what this kind of small greed will bring.

In the past, the development of out-of-season melons and vegetables in Qiongdao was not all smooth sailing. Some people once put stones and stone bricks into baskets of melons and vegetables because they would increase the weight.

As a result, the deceived businessmen decided to unite and directly refuse the melons and vegetables in a certain place. That year, the area where bricks and stones were put in was heavily damaged. As long as it is said that it is that area, people will not accept it at all.

The deceived businessman even angrily hung bricks and stones in front of the door of the purchase point and pasted a note. It is said: Qiongdao XX melon. But in the end, it has not been found out who did this.

The credibility that had been painstakingly built up for years was completely bankrupt overnight. Even though the locals wanted to ask someone else to help sell their melons and vegetables on their behalf, they all refused when they heard about the brick incident.

It's just because of a person's greed, just because he just wants to gain weight and earn more money. But in the end, it was the credibility of the entire region that went bankrupt. almost let the fledgling Qiongdao vegetables end up.

Later, people learned from the pain and finally found a sincere apology from the merchant. And to ensure that there will never be similar things in the future, and at the same time strictly control the quality. This made the merchants come back with suspicion.

Also from that time. Vegetable farmers spontaneously formed an unwritten, unnamed alliance. Anyone who uses his hands and feet in vegetables will unite to boycott him and reject him.

For many years after that, there was no such problem with the vegetables of Qiongdao. Everyone knows what will happen if such a problem arises. No one is going to joke about their jobs.

"In terms of quality, we must establish a complete and strict implementation system. Otherwise, once there is a problem, it will be our painstaking efforts for many years. It's all in vain......"

Liang Sanping said to Xia Zhendong with emotion, and Xia Zhendong couldn't help but nod when he saw what Liang Sanping said. There are many such examples abroad. Xia Zhendong didn't want to be one of those failed cases.

"On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, it's time for us to move." Liang Sanping smiled and summed up with Xia Zhendong: "Don't move the others first, so let's get the pineapples in the new land first, and then gradually plant the fruits ......."

Following their plans, Liang Sanping and Xia Zhendong began to tell their thoughts. Doing things must be done step by step, and in Liang Sanping's opinion, this matter must be in a hurry. Vegetables are only the preliminary stage of his entire agricultural development plan.

What follows. It is the cultivation of other cash crops. The method of intercropping is adopted, after all, melons and vegetables are only grown in winter. If it is only to grow melons and vegetables, then the large area of land is a bit wasted.

Bananas, rubber, betel nuts, lychees, longan...... and so on, these cash crops can be planted on a large scale. As long as the sales channel is good, these are good projects.

The preliminary situation has been mentioned by Liang Sanping in his plan. The first thing to do is the cultivation of bananas and pineapples. These two harvest periods are the fastest, while rubber, betel nut, etc., require at least several years of cultivation before the harvest period can be achieved.

At the same time, these require a greater investment of time and energy. You also have to learn technology. I also have to prepare pesticides and a large number of fertilizers, and I don't have so much money after a few years of investment. It needs to be done step by step.

"Basically, your plan is already perfect. What we have to do now is to achieve him step by step. Xia Zhendong poured Liang Sanping a glass of wine and said, "We still have a long way to go......"

"It's okay to go on." But I saw Liang Sanping smile and said: "The betel nut project, in fact, I am very optimistic." There is not much land to be desired, so you can interplant. And there is less demand for pesticides and fertilizers. It's just a little more drenched. ”

When Xia Zhendong heard this, he couldn't help but look at Liang Sanping suspiciously: "Although betel nut has a certain medicinal value, how much can it be used medicinally?!" If you usually eat it, I haven't seen anyone else who has eaten betel nut when I go to Qiongdao and Treasure Island. Sanping, is your decision ......?"

Xia Zhendong didn't say what he said next. But Liang Sanping knew that he was wondering if he had made a wrong decision. Liang Sanping smiled and did not explain. It was difficult for him to explain to Xia Zhendong that it was a province more than a thousand kilometers away from Qiongdao.

In the hometown of the old man who founded the republic, there will be a large number of people who like to eat betel nut. Even they love to eat betel nut, which has a history of hundreds of years. So much so that the way they treat their guests is the same as that of the people of Qiongdao, using betel nuts.

"Don't dare to pay New Year's greetings, go into the house and eat betel nut." "Guests come to my house with a sip of betel nut and a cup of tea." "The more the betel nut is chewed, the stronger it becomes, this mouth comes out and that mouth enters", "Raising wives and cubs, firewood, rice, oil and salt; Welcome and treat, betel nut cigarettes"...... These proverbs are all from Xiangbei Province, where the betel nut of Qiongdao has a big market.

However, the way people in Xiangbei eat betel nut is a little different from that of Qiongdao. On the side of Qiongdao, raw betel nut is eaten with boiled snail shell ash and a locally produced leaf called "Lao Ye".

After chewing, a red juice is produced. This is very similar to the way of eating betel nut on the treasure island. And Xiangbei people eat betel nut to eat dried betel nut. And it's marinated.

In the early days of their marinade, they used lime water to sweeten it. Once boiling, apply to the dried betel nut. With the development of time, the marinade naturally developed with it. Added menthol, cinnamon oil...... and other formulas of betel nut, gradually becoming popular.

"Maritime merchants, Qiongguan collects their taxes, ranking five out of ten, taxes in northern Guangdong, betel nut taxes, tens of thousands of years old!" Liang Sanping put down his wine glass and said to Xia Zhendong: "This is the words in the "Lingwai Dai Answer" written by Zhou Qufei in the Song Dynasty, which clearly records the prosperity of the betel nut trade in ancient times!" ”

Liang Sanping looked at Xia Zhendong and said softly: "We were able to do this hundreds of years ago, no matter how we do it, it won't be worse than that, right?!" Also, as far as I know, there are many places in China where it is customary to eat betel nut......"

Liang Sanping almost didn't say it, but the betel nut industry in northern Hunan in later generations was a market of tens of billions. The surrounding industries and employment driven by it are extremely high. Don't look at this little betel nut, the value of a few dollars.

But its early industry is extremely huge. The rise of betel nut in northern Hunan once made many people mistakenly think that the origin of betel nut is Xiangbei. This couldn't help but make Liang Sanping smile bitterly.

Xia Zhendong doesn't know much about betel nuts, which is normal in Liang Sanping's opinion. After all, first of all, Xia Zhendong was not a native of Qiongdao, and the ten-year catastrophe also cut off a lot of trade.

Therefore, he did not know much about the betel nut industry and the history of betel nut. Even Xia Zhendong himself doesn't eat betel nut, and most of the people who are eating betel nut in Qiongdao now are local Li and Miao compatriots.

"I just know that betel nut has a high status in our village. I didn't expect it to have such a glorious history......" Xia Zhendong was stunned by Liang Sanping's words, and said with emotion after a while.

Betel nut is one of the most important fruits in the local area, and most local families not only eat it themselves, but also take it out for guests. Even when it is important to marry a man and a woman, the man must have betel nut if he wants to go to the woman's house for the dowry. The next dowry is directly called "betel nut" by the locals.

(Today, I am accompanying Fa Xiao and his father to Fa Xiao's girlfriend's house to talk about betel nuts, which is simply to talk about engagement.) In many local families in Qiongdao, not having betel nut is not a confirmation of the relationship between the two parties. Even if you get the certificate. )

"It still takes time for betel nut to be planted and harvested." Liang Sanping said to Xia Zhendong with a smile: "During this period, we can plant some other crops, and pineapples are a very good choice." ”

According to Liang Sanping's assumption, these crops need to be filled by other income before they can be directly grown. Pineapples are very good, and he also thinks about bananas. The intercropping pattern is adopted, and two portions are planted together.

"Let's rest for a few more days, and we will start work on the eighth day of the new year." Liang Sanping said to Xia Zhendong with a smile: "When the time comes, I will have to be busy with the affairs of the tertiary production company first." An Tianmin's side, you have worked so hard. ”

"It's so hard that it's nothing, but I haven't grown pineapples or betel nuts either. I still lack technical aspects. Xia Zhendong was very pragmatic and quickly revealed his shortcomings: "We also have to keep up with the training." ”

"Hmm...... There is no hurry to do this for the time being, and the melon and vegetable harvest will be in April and May! Liang Sanping smiled and said to Xia Zhendong: "There are supermarkets on the other side of Xiangjiang, and their demand is long-term. So we can leave some land for long-term planting. ”

"The rest of the land is re-planned after directly ploughing the land. The same is true in the village, and we can't move the cultivated land. But in other areas, such as mountains and slopes, we can consider replanting and planting some cash crops......"

Saying that, Liang Sanping stretched his legs with a smile: "Don't be idle in the rice field, I'll look for Teacher Liu in two days." Let's discuss the problem of rice farming, it would be a waste if you didn't raise something in so many fields! (To be continued......)
