Chapter 66 kills two birds with one stone
Zhang Wanru received a call from Zhang Xuemei after breakfast: "Auntie, early this morning, Mayor Bi arranged for someone to come to the resort to pay all the money. Are you still coming back? ”
"Not going back for a while. You manage the resort well, you pay attention to the home appliances, communicate more with Manager Meng, if he comes to the provincial branch, you can drive with him to have a look. If you need to buy goods, you can call the head office. ”
"Okay."
In the morning, Zhang Wanru was on the construction site and told Ji Yuqing and Engineer Mi that the shed that made bricks, doors and windows by herself after the Spring Festival would be relocated to Jiangcheng. Before moving, make a budget as soon as possible for the hollow bricks, doors and windows needed for the construction site that just won the bid. Let them make it as soon as possible. In case it will have to be transported here from Jiangcheng next year.
Engineer Mi nodded in approval, thought for a while and said, "Okay, make a budget, and I'll tell them personally." ”
Ji Yuqing asked: "Do you want to go to Jiangcheng City and buy a piece of land?" ”
"Yes. I want to go over and take a look. Although my second brother is now the mayor, he is worried that he will not be able to make political achievements. I go and see if there are any good projects and I will invest in them. It is also a precursor to the past development of our real estate. ”
Ji Yuqing smiled and said, "Okay, you can go." It's best to find a good project over there next year, and we have a lot of people on the site. The winning bid for this property will only build six buildings. If there is a project in Jiangcheng, you might as well do it on both sides at the same time. Now we are really not short of money. ”
Jiangcheng City is located more than 40 kilometers away from the provincial capital in the south, separated by a mountain range, in the north of the Yellow River, because of this mother river, Jiangcheng can be watered a large area of land, agriculture is more dominant.
Zhang Wanru greeted the warm sunshine and cool autumn breeze and drove on the highway leading to Jiangcheng. Calculate the time in my heart, there are more than 20 days, the old people will come to the resort, I must do what I want to do as soon as possible during this time, and when the old people come, I have to stay in the resort to accompany the guests.
When the car drove out of the mountains, there was an endless plain in front of you, with patches of flat land and rivers. The villages are all flat-roofed houses, and each village is very large, but it is rare to see factories and high-rise buildings.
In the past, I came to Jiangcheng Cotton Mill from Fengcheng City to buy cloth, and I have a better understanding of the east of Jiangcheng. At this time, seeing the environment in Jiangcheng City, I really can't think of what kind of project to invest in.
She drove along the road to observe the farmland on the side of the road, and saw a large cabbage field around a town called Fangxia. She drove along the trail and saw that the cabbage was growing very well. Some farmers are growing garlic. Suddenly there was an inspiration.
Thinking of his classmate Wang Zhiyong, I remember that at that class reunion, he once said that she not only grows vegetables but also breeds, chickens, pigs and mushrooms. If Jiangcheng City sets aside a part of the land to make vegetable greenhouses, plus breeding. This is not only a big granary, but also a vegetable and breeding base.
This is the vegetable basket project, the people's livelihood event. It is in line with the national policy.
This idea made Zhang Wanru more confident, and she invested in this project herself, and it was best to go to Wang Zhiyong to learn from it. If the industry is underdeveloped, then first focus on the superior resources and do what you can.
Thinking of this, Zhang Wanru drove towards Jiangcheng, and began to think about the plan in her mind.
When I arrived in the urban area and came to the office area of the municipal party committee, I saw that there were only four five-story office buildings, which were indeed not very bright. She called her second brother and told him that he was already downstairs in the office.
The second brother Zhang Bin hurriedly went downstairs, saw his sister who had been looking forward to it for a long time, and said with a smile: "Are you done?" ”
The two went upstairs while talking, and Zhang Wanru asked, "Yes." Do you know I'm back home? ”
"Yes, I've asked my eldest brother."
When I came to the office, the second brother was busy making tea for my sister.
Zhang Wanru sat on the sofa and looked at the decoration of the office, which was not luxurious at all, and it was not as atmospheric as her own office.
He smiled and asked, "I heard from my father that you are very worried about how to carry out your work." After working as a deputy mayor for so many years, don't you have any ideas? ”
The second brother said a little frustratedly: There are endless ideas, but it is even more difficult to do.
In the past year, we have thought of all the ways we can think of. If the city's economy can't improve, I just don't have political achievements. I'm actually lined up there. There will be no significant improvement in the economy by growing food alone. Ordinary people don't make much money growing food, and they don't earn as much as those young people who go out to work for a year.
At present, in some areas, most of the people who farm at home are middle-aged and elderly, and some of them are old and neglect to manage their crops, and the harvest is not good. If I want to develop Jiangcheng City well, we must have a good reform plan.
I've wanted you to come over and see it for a long time, you've been clever and quirky since you were a child, and maybe you really have a good idea.
Zhang Wanru smiled at the second brother and said, "Haha, you don't have to flatter me, I will also find a way to help you." Actually, I've already figured out a way. It is to do vegetable greenhouses and breed. ”
"We have land here, there is no shortage of water. Farmers have also been mobilized to grow vegetables in the past. But it can't be formed, and often the vegetables can't be sold. Many vegetable farmers complained. The second brother said depressedly.
Zhang Wanru pursed her lips and smiled, "That's because you are not determined enough. The main thing is the lack of a good leader, and the second is the lack of money. That's what I thought, I have a classmate who raises chickens, pigs and mushrooms, and is also very good at growing vegetables. When I go to you, I'll start with that. You choose some people to learn these three kinds of farming in the past, and after learning the technology, they will do it themselves. I will also ask him to send someone to follow and guide them to set up the farm. ”
"Alas! It's difficult, it's difficult, and the investment in breeding will definitely not be less. Secondly, sales are also an issue. With so many problems out there, it's hard to get people mobilized. ”
Wanru took a sip of the teacup, looked at him and said with a smile: As long as you have the confidence to do it, there are always more ways than difficulties. When it comes to money, I will spend 50 million yuan to issue interest-free loans. It is best to concentrate on making vegetable greenhouses, and I will also donate 2 million yuan, and your city will be responsible for laying pipes for them to bring water directly into the vegetable greenhouses. Secondly, I will also hire agricultural technicians to guide them in growing vegetables scientifically.
The loan is for two years, so that all three of us are bound together and will do our best to do it well.
First: a large area of vegetables, to build a vegetable greenhouse, must form a scale. Then build a wholesale vegetable market, so that many vegetable sellers will come and buy it. In addition, it can also be purchased in a unified manner and transported to the vegetable market in other cities for sale. I will also build a vegetable processing factory, which can store some vegetables for sale during the Spring Festival, and also do vegetable processing.
Second: it is to engage in breeding, raising chickens, pigs, and mushrooms. Now do a good job in the vegetable basket project and solve the people's livelihood problems, which is your most important project at present. Don't underestimate these two, vegetables and meat, every household can't do without it. I also need three meals a day. If you want to do big things, start with small things.
Once the farmer tastes the sweetness, he will be full of energy. If many vegetable farmers and farmers can earn a lot of money, the young people who went out to work will also come back. If you can make a lot of money in your hometown, who wants to leave your hometown to work for others?
After hearing this, the second brother's eyes lit up at first, and then dimmed again, and said with a bitter face: "The shelf life of some vegetables is too short. In the past, planting vegetables ended in failure, and if the people were mobilized to grow vegetables, the first thing they were worried about was the problem of unsalable. One year, many people planted a lot of Chinese cabbage, lettuce, etc., but not only did they not make any money, but they also lost a lot. ”
Wanru frowned, thinking, this is once bitten by a snake, and she is afraid of the well rope for ten years.
looked at him impatiently and said, "Second brother, I solved the problem of funds and sales for them, I have done it before, and I don't have the conditions I give, right?" The variety of vegetables grown in the greenhouse is almost uninterrupted throughout the year. Especially around the Spring Festival, not only the vegetables are fresh, but they can also be sold at a good price. I have solved their worries, if I am still afraid of wolves and tigers, I have no choice. Say a thousand things and ten thousand, or your work is not in place. If you can't make political achievements, you can't blame anyone. ”
Zhang Bin heard his sister say that it was reasonable, but he still didn't ask very down-to-earth in his heart: "If the problem of money and sales is solved, it is not a problem." Can you really do it? ”
Zhang Wanru rolled her eyes directly at him, and said angrily: Do you think I'm teasing you? Don't worry, I can do it. You are here as a grain producing area, a veritable granary, or mainly to grow grain, supplemented by vegetable cultivation and breeding.
When I go to the United States again, I will inspect the mechanization equipment there, and if it is suitable, I will buy you some equipment. At that time, mechanized farming will reduce the burden on farmers, and yields will increase, so that there will also be time to take care of the greenhouses. If you have both food and vegetables, you can definitely make money. At that time, many people will be more energetic and capable.
This year, you first mobilize one or two townships and start making vegetable greenhouses. After a year of experimentation, my ideas can be realized, and by then, there will be people in other towns and villages who will respond. In this way, vegetables, breeding, and grain will develop together, and you will not have to worry about the economy of your city. Your achievements are there.
The second brother looked at his sister with suspicion and asked, "Do you really take out 50 million yuan to issue interest-free loans?" ”
"Yes. Only when you have money can you do things, and only then can you have the confidence to do things. I lend them money to solve both their immediate needs and yours. I just lost a little bit of interest. No matter what you do, you need to pay before you can reap it. Don't be upset, I'll definitely be able to earn the money back in the future. You can tell you that the interest-free loan is limited to two years, and the special funds are used exclusively for breeding and building vegetable greenhouses. ”
The second brother's brows furrowed, this time with his sister's promise, at least he had confidence in his heart.
Seeing that the second brother had finally made up her mind, Wanru took out the check book from her handbag, filled out the check for 52 million, handed it to the second brother, and continued: "Hurry up sooner rather than later, take advantage of the fact that some land is not planted with other crops now, and act as soon as possible." As long as the land planning is integrated, it is very simple to make greenhouses, contact the manufacturers who produce greenhouses, and they will deliver them to help make it. For this money, you have to find someone who is specifically responsible for issuing interest-free loans. ”
The second brother took the check and saw that it was indeed real money, so it could not be faked. returned it to his sister and asked teasingly, "Aren't you afraid that someone will not repay the debt?" ”
"Don't be afraid, it doesn't matter if someone really pays the bills, even if our brothers pay the tuition; It can be said that even if I do charity. Don't worry so much if you want to do things. Dedication to success is the goal. Besides, the money is mine, I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? ”
"Okay. You still take the check first. We will hold a meeting to convey your ideas, and you will also attend, in order to enhance everyone's confidence, when the time comes, it is more appropriate for you to take out the check in front of other leaders of the municipal party committee. ”
The second brother pointed to the map of Jiangcheng on the wall and introduced: "You see that the north is a mountainous area, and we are separated from the provincial capital by this mountain range, which is only forty kilometers away. Our city has three counties, all of which are Pingchuan, and one of the most famous lakes is Chunyang Lake, which is diverted from the Yellow River. Secondly, there are many large and small lakes spread over the three counties. ”
"I saw it when I came over. If you plant mechanized like in other countries, you won't need many people to farm. Wanru said, looking at the map.
"Yes, some mechanized operations are now used, that is, for cultivation and harvesting, but because the land is relatively scattered, some farmers have less land and cannot use machinery."
"Yes, if you want to make a lot of people rich at once, it's impossible, so let's use one or two towns as a pilot first. If it's done well, it will drive a large area. Tomorrow, we're going to the north and we're going to build a vegetable base on both sides of the river. There are mountains here, the vegetation is also very good, and it is in the mountains to the north of here to build a breeding base, which is far away from cities and villages, and can also reduce pollution. ”
After hearing this, the second brother became more confident, and his mood was much more relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Well, it's very good, it's the same as our thoughts." Vegetables use a lot of water, and it is also convenient to irrigate along rivers. ”
He originally thought that Wanru's contribution of 50 million yuan was just a drop in the bucket for the three counties, but now it is more than enough to make a fuss about only one or two townships and towns.
Wanru stared at the map and said, "After the two bases of vegetables and breeding are done." We started to get ready to do sales. My goal is to have the best markets in the surrounding cities, especially the provincial ones, which have a lot of residents. Play the vegetable brand of Jiangcheng, build a vegetable wholesale market as soon as possible, and attract some vegetable dealers to come and purchase. The next step is to build a vegetable processing plant. ”
"Okay. Although it is difficult to watch, as long as you do it, the more you do it, the more you experience. ”
"That's right, I'm also looking for someone to find an agricultural technician, and I can definitely come over around the Spring Festival. I will pay for him, you just have to mobilize the farmers, build the vegetable greenhouses in the first year, and engage in breeding to study for three months, so as to see how many people have the ability and courage to do it. Breeding can only be after the Spring Festival, this is not seasonal, morning and evening. ”
In the afternoon, in the small conference room of the municipal party committee, the members of the municipal party committee and Yu Cheng, the mayor of Yuquan Town, who was selected to make a greenhouse, and Zhang Wanru were all present.
Mayor Zhang explained the whole plan to everyone. Some leaders were overjoyed when they heard that someone had invested 50 million yuan as an interest-free loan to support vegetable farmers and farmers.
Especially Mayor Yu of Yuquan Town. Excitedly asked: "Thank you for the support of the leader." We will definitely cooperate with each other. When we go back, we will have a mobilization meeting. How much can a vegetable farmer borrow for a two-year interest-free loan? ”
Mayor Zhang pointed at Zhang Wanru and said with a smile: "This is our investor, let her explain it to everyone." ”
Zhang Wanru looked around at everyone and said with a smile: I can come over to invest, and I also have my eye on this project. Everyone's doubts are nothing more than sales issues. I am here to promise you that in three years, I will help you sell vegetables, not only to let vegetable farmers buy and sell freely in the wholesale market, but also to set up a vegetable processing factory that can store and process some vegetables.
The question raised by Mayor Yu just now is very good, the amount of interest-free loans is calculated according to the area of the greenhouse, that is to say, the amount of money spent by each family to build a greenhouse is the amount of money borrowed without interest. As long as the greenhouse is built, the water pipe is connected to the greenhouse, and the rest is vegetable seeds and fertilizers, which will not cost much. Right?
Vice Mayor Tang said with a smile: "It won't cost a lot to build a greenhouse of 50 million yuan. It is more expensive to engage in breeding. Can you use 20 million yuan to make greenhouses? The more vegetable greenhouses can form a scale, and the more vegetable merchants can be attracted in the future. ”
Mayor Zhang said with a smile: "We can grasp this matter at our own discretion." This year, we will try to mobilize farmers, if we do it first, the vegetables will be on the market before and after the Spring Festival, and the vegetable farmers will earn the first pot of gold, and the form will be better and better in the future. ”
The details were then discussed.
Zhang Wanru finally smiled and said, "You guys hurry up and do this." The day after tomorrow, I will go to the units engaged in breeding contact study, and I will pay them 100,000 yuan for room and board. As for going to many people, you have to look at it, and for the sake of future development, it is best for you to arrange for someone to follow you. As for how far they learn, that's your business. ”
In the evening, Zhang Wanru followed her second brother home, and the two simply fried two dishes and ate dinner.
Zhang Wanru said: "Brother, I handed over the check to Vice Mayor Tang. You must cheer up, our brothers are on the same side now, and we must go all out this time. This time, I came here for another reason, which was to buy a piece of land and move the site where I made hollow bricks and made doors and windows. ”
"No problem. The urban construction of our city is also very backward. I also have the idea of rebuilding the office building. Don't look at the city is not prosperous enough, but there are many rich farmers. If the vegetables and farming are successful, the whole city will be very popular at that time. We also hope that urban development will follow suit. Just let your real estate company come and build a decent living community or two, which is also to add luster to our city. ”
Zhang Wanru smiled and said, "I also have this intention." Since I came to help you, I will also develop urban construction. In the future, I will also help you attract investment and attract a few factories to come over. Of course, this is a later story, and the top priority is to succeed in vegetable and breeding. We will come over to build a living quarter, and when the provincial capital project is completed, we will come over to build an office building for you. In fact, you can also build dormitories for your employees, and you can earn some money by building dormitories, and then you will earn back all the money you need to build office buildings. ”
Zhang Bin looked at his sister, always so confident and always sunny. Today's arrival has opened a door in my heart, which is not only bright, but also full of hope and goals.
smiled and said, "That's it, just do as you say." I'm going to do my best to build the greenhouse first. ”
"I'll be back tomorrow afternoon. The day after tomorrow, I went to my classmates and contacted me about learning to breed. I will ask Ji Yuqing to bring an engineer to come to you, and you will first determine the location of the vegetable wholesale market and our vegetable processing plant. Let the meter engineering design the drawings, and then build the market first. If you don't have any money, I'll just want to pay you in advance and deduct it when we buy the land. ”
"You're not coming?"
"Yes, on October 9th, there are a few guests staying at the resort in the capital, and I have to go back to take care of them. I'll also take the time to come and have a look. ”
"That's it, I will also let experienced vegetable farmers first raise some vegetable seedlings, plant them after the greenhouse is done, and harvest a stubble around the Spring Festival."
There was no word all night, and dawn in the blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, Zhang Wanru got up early in the morning, knocked on the door of the second brother's bedroom, and said, "Get up quickly, let's drive to see the one-acre and three-point land under your jurisdiction." I have to leave this afternoon, don't waste time. ”
Zhang Bin came out of the bedroom sleepily and asked, "Do you always wake up so early?" It's not yet dawn. ”
Zhang Wanru smiled and said, "Don't talk nonsense. If you want to make a grade, but you still want to sleep in, how can you do it? After that you have to get up at five o'clock and go for an hour of morning running. Only then will you have the spirit. You can catch up on sleep at noon. ”
Zhang Bin drove his sister's car, and Wanru sat in the passenger seat, driving slowly around the streets of the city.
The various shops on both sides of the road are dilapidated, giving Wanru's first impression that this is a very backward city. The only thing that is famous is the textile factory. There are also three flour mills. This is followed by a few small factories, the tallest of which is six floors. There is a small wholesale market, and only here is it more popular.
In the whole city, there are only two east-west roads leading directly to the national highway, and there is only one road in the north-south direction, and the road is not very wide.
The second brother felt that Wanru was very disappointed with the environment here, and hurriedly said: "Outside the city, we still have a grain depot of thousands of acres. ”
At half past seven, the two brothers had breakfast at a food stall and came to the municipal party committee office together.
Mayor Zhang held a simple morning meeting, and took a car with the municipal party committee team to drive towards Yuquan Town, west of Jiangcheng City.
Along the way, Vice Mayor Tang also kept introducing Zhang Wanru. From time to time, I get out of the car to check that this is the river that has been diverted from the Yellow River. The river flows through many towns and villages, and also flows through several large and small lakes.
The second brother said: "We are optimistic about the land and water resources in this vicinity, and it is not far from the city. ”
Vice Mayor Tang also said with a smile: "We have discussed the re-planning of all the land here and making it a vegetable greenhouse." After the agricultural technician comes, it is also convenient to provide centralized guidance, and the vegetables can also be sold in a centralized manner, which is also easy to manage. ”
Wanru nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, since the skeleton of the greenhouse will be shipped soon to start installation, then act as soon as possible, plant early, and benefit early." Vegetables are inseparable from water, and when the farmers are slack in winter, they should build dams in the river as soon as possible to intercept part of the water, that is, in case the river is cut off, the stored water can also allow vegetable farmers to water vegetables. ”
The second brother and Vice Mayor Tang glanced at each other, thinking to themselves, she does have a vision, and this river really has a time when it stops.
Vice Mayor Tang smiled and said, "Yes, your suggestion is very good. It is sufficient to control the water level to a certain height without affecting the downstream irrigation. Secondly, you can also open the gate from Chunyang Lake to release water. ”
Zhang Wanru asked: "You contact the manufacturer of the greenhouse, and at the same time as the greenhouse, you should also install water pipes into the greenhouse as soon as possible." I donated 2 million yuan to lay the main pipeline. We must tell the peasants that time is running out, there will be no such shop in this village in the past, and interest-free loans are limited. Only when we are large enough can we make the sales channel smoother. ”
Then they came to the northernmost mountainous area of the township.
Vice Mayor Tang was very satisfied with Zhang Wanru's choice of this place as a breeding base.
He said with a smile: "Such a large area is enough to cover dozens of pig farms, chicken farms, and mushroom greenhouses." Not only does it avoid pollution, but it also reduces noise. ”
Zhang Wanru said: "You tell the people who go to study that if they come back and want to do it themselves, the first piglets, and the money to build the factory can be borrowed interest-free." You also have to connect the water pipes, and the farms also need water. ”
Near noon, on the way back to the city, Zhang Wanru said: "You still have to build roads, which is also very important, if the vegetables can not be transported out in time, it will be sad." Before the Spring Festival, I will rent a door in the vegetable market in several nearby cities, and I will also buy two large trucks so that they can deliver the vegetables they have bought to the markets. ”
In the afternoon, on the construction site of the provincial capital, Ji Yuqing saw Wanru coming back, and said with a smile: "We have to hurry up, it seems that we can't deliver the work this year." Winter is still a month away, and greening can't be done in the first place. ”
"Then don't worry, if there is a quality problem in a hurry, it will be even more troublesome at that time. What happened to the winning site? ”
"Each family gave them 20,000 yuan to rent a house and move out. Some people still think that there is little money. In the end, it rose to 23,000 yuan, and they all moved away. We must organize the demolition of the old building as soon as possible. Strive to dig up the underground garage within the first year, otherwise, you will have to pay millions of yuan in rental fees for each year of extension. ”
"I came up with the name of a neighborhood called Warm House, how about it?"
"Haha, we want to call it Equatorial House. Let's call it a warm home. ”
Zhang Wanru told Ji Yuqing about what she agreed with her second brother in Jiangcheng this time.
Finally, he said: "Early tomorrow morning, I will go to Wang Zhiyong." You take the time to go over to the second brother with the rice project, just like I said just now. As for the fact that we used to buy land to build a community, and to build an office building and a staff dormitory community for our second brother, we waited for the Spring Festival to come and ask my grandfather to come over and give us the land first. ”
"Okay. That's it. Have you chosen the site for your prefabrication yard? ”
"No, I've determined the general location, just somewhere east of Jiangcheng. You can also choose for me. ”
Ji Yuqing stared at Zhang Wanru for three minutes, thinking, it seems that she is really willing to spend the capital for her second brother, 50 million yuan, two years, interest alone is not a small number, plus donated 2 million yuan, hired agricultural technicians, and paid training fees. Millions of dollars have been wasted like this, and she is really a crazy woman.
Ji Yuqing also understood in her heart that Wanru helped her second brother, and she really couldn't stop it, and she was the biggest beneficiary. Although I really don't have much interest in selling vegetables, I don't want to pour cold water on her. If you think about it carefully, you will be relieved, Wanru's pattern is indeed not ordinary. Let's talk about the resort, she can arrange jobs for all the young people in the village in advance, which is a kind of restraint on the villagers.
Now that she has spent more than 50 million yuan to support the peasants there to make a fortune, isn't she paving the way for the next step of past development? This real estate will be completed within a year, and it is also necessary to find another way to find a project.
