While the snow had not yet melted, Xu Siwen went to contact the research and development of food preservation technology in cooperation with universities, and Mu Shanhe was also not idle, and began to negotiate with the county and the town. The newly added food processing plant will also set up a factory in Shuangdian.

Knowing that a company from Xiangcheng came to invest, and specialized in buying things like wild vegetables, the county and the town naturally would not object. It's just that Mushanhe is more responsible for acting as an intermediary, and the investment is entrusted to others.

When the forest farm officially started, Mu Shanhe also came to the door again and said: "Director Xu, I'm here to disturb you again." ”

"Look at what you said, I don't usually see you coming! You are a noble person with many things, and you can't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, right? ”

Xu Siyuan, who led Mu Shanhe into the office with a smile, has less than two years left before retirement. Although before retirement, there is no way to raise the next level. But when he retired from the position of field manager, he also felt satisfied.

After chatting for a while, Mu Shanhe also directly explained his intentions: "Uncle Xu, I may have to trouble you to report to the above, I plan to contract the regenerative forest near the farm." Can you help me ask, how much can it be contracted? ”

"What do you mean? If the above contracts 10,000 acres for you, it is difficult for you to contract too! ”

"As long as the price is right, I don't have a problem."

"What? Do you really want to contract so many regenerated forests, what are you doing with this? Even if we sell timber in the future, I'm afraid that those forests will not be cut down for a while. Didn't you contract thousands of acres before? ”

In the face of Xu Siyuan's inquiry, Mu Shanhe did not hide it: "This year, I plan to expand the scale of the farm, if I want to grow high-quality crops, I also have extremely high requirements for the surrounding environment, and the number of deer and roe deer will increase."

If the contracted forest area is larger, then I can directly release the deer and roe deer herds in the surrounding mountain forests. The deer antler velvet and musk powder harvested in this way must be of higher quality and the price will naturally be higher.

In addition, another reason why I dare to contract so many regenerated forests is that I have found a way to grow wild ginseng artificially. Although the survival rate is less than 30%, I believe that the more forests there are, the more wild ginseng will be in the future.

The price of wild ginseng is very expensive now, in terms of a 70-year contract period. If I transplant wild ginseng, it can grow in the forest for fifty or sixty years, and the price of a wild ginseng at that time, hehe, must be worth a lot of money, right? ”

"Are you sure it's wild ginseng, not understory ginseng?"

For today's Hewan Forest Farm, they have also begun to find some regenerated forests to plant understory ginseng. Compared with garden ginseng, the quality of understory ginseng is more similar to that of wild ginseng. Because the growth environment and cultivation methods of the two are still somewhat similar.

But after all, the understory ginseng is transplanted artificially, and it is certainly unlikely to be compared with wild ginseng. Moreover, the seeds of understory ginseng are not the same as the seeds of wild ginseng. It is precisely because of these that Xu Siyuan will ask more.

And Mu Shanhe said with a smile: "Uncle Xu, I am also a child who grew up in the forest area, how can I not distinguish between forest ginseng and wild ginseng!" It is really a seedling bred from the seeds of wild ginseng, and then transplanted into a living one. ”

For ginseng pickers who go into the mountains all year round to collect ginseng, they will also sprinkle the ripe ginseng seeds directly near the jungle where they dig into the ginseng when they encounter wild ginseng seeds. In this way, the people behind can dig ginseng nearby.

But in today's excavation methods, many people simply do not abide by the so-called rules of ginseng mining. No matter how many wild ginseng leaves you have, as long as these people see it, they will dig it up. Even if the year is not long, it can be sold for money after all.

As long as it can be sold for money, it is profitable. It is precisely because of this kind of digging method, regardless of size, as long as it is encountered, that the wild ginseng in the Changbai forest area has almost fallen into the situation of extinction, and it is difficult to find the trace of wild ginseng in the mountains.

If wild ginseng can really be transplanted and planted artificially, it will undoubtedly be a good thing for the Changbai Mountains. Knowing that Mu Shanhe would not joke about this kind of thing, Xu Siyuan quickly agreed and would report the matter.

In fact, compared with many state-owned forest farms in the south, the transfer of forest contract rights has begun. In the northern forest area, there are really not many people who are willing to spend money on regenerative forests. This kind of extra income is not even earned by the forestry department.

It's just that Mu Shanhe also stressed once again that this matter must be approved and recognized by the national forestry department. Only when he sees the authority of the state forestry department will he pay the corresponding contract fee. In doing so, we are avoiding future disputes.

In order to avoid contracting too many mountains and forests, so that the forestry department did not dare to approve it, Mu Shanhe also said directly: "Uncle Xu, I will send you a personal favor." When reporting to the leader, you can tell me that my contract fee can be paid in foreign exchange. ”

"What? Mountains and rivers, this is not a joke! ”

"Of course I know! Although the foreign exchange I can get is not too much, if I contract 10,000 acres of regenerated forest, I believe it should still be enough. If this can make foreign exchange, it will be a good thing for your forest farm after all, right? ”

"That's for sure! On our forest farm, in addition to cultivating a little ginseng land and selling it for money, there are really not many people who dare to contract regenerative forests like you. It's just that I didn't expect that you kid could still get foreign exchange? ”

"Hehe, weren't you curious before, why is there so much rice on my farm? All the rice produced last year was processed into rice and exported. The price is quite good, but it is difficult to promote the cultivation model. ”

"Why?"

"No pesticides, no chemical fertilizers, and organic fertilizers. The yield of rice grown in this way is not as high as that of other rice. All in all, it is difficult to grow such high-quality rice anywhere except my farm for the time being. ”

"No wonder you kid dare to play so big and build such a big farm. I heard, you're planning to expand your farm today? ”

"Hmmm! This year, I will not only expand the area of rice cultivation, but also try to sell the watermelons grown on the farm to foreign countries. I sell five cents in China, and many people are too expensive. Shipped abroad, I will sell it for five yuan at that time. ”

"You are a fool when you are a person, how can you buy five dollars a pound of watermelon?"

"Then you just wait and see, there are definitely more such fools abroad than you think."

After the two teased and joked, Mu Shanhe also handed the letter of intent to contract directly to Xu Siyuan, who then forwarded it to his superiors. When this new contract will be approved depends on the speed of the above.

But as far as Mu Shanhe guesses, I believe that the speed should be very fast this time. Because last time, he mentioned this matter to Liu Xingye. Since the state has a policy, Mushanhe is still willing to pay the contract fee in foreign exchange, so why not approve it?

Tens of thousands of acres of regenerated forests, although it sounds like a lot. But for the entire Shuangdian and even Xianqiao Town area, it seems a little insignificant. Moreover, the contract period is 70 years, and the state can still recover the property rights of forest land when the contract expires.

Of course, if Mushanhe wants to continue to contract, it will also have to pay the corresponding contracting fee. It's just that the contracting cost at that time, compared with now, I'm afraid it is really impossible to be as cheap as it is now!
