【069】 Planting base
In the past few hundred years, the ancestors of Ginkgo Village have relied on the fertile fields reclaimed around Jinghu Lake to support their families. Of course, Ginkgo Village, which is backed by Biluo Snow Mountain, has naturally learned to seek out the mountains, and has reproduced in this poor mountain and bad water for generations.
However, with the changes of the times, these conditions that could support their families in the old era gradually fell behind. After entering the 21st century, Ginkgo Village was able to maintain food and clothing, and it was quite difficult to make a fortune. Especially after the policy of closure and forest cultivation was introduced, hunting in the mountains was greatly restricted. The villagers could only eat enough and their living money became increasingly scarce.
Over the years, young and middle-aged people in Ginkgo Village have gone out to work in coastal areas, using their youth, sweat and even tears to obtain the income necessary for their family survival. In the past two years, a large amount of land in Ginkgo Village, which is mainly the elderly and weak, has been abandoned. After all, digging food from the soil is not an easy task, and the income is also low.
However, when the vegetables produced in the vegetable garden of Xiaojia Farm were very popular and generated a lot of income for Xiaojia Farm, the villagers of Ginkgo Village could no longer sit still. The conservative income of a mu of land a year was about 20,000 yuan, even if it was reduced by half, it was enough for the villagers to flock to it.
In Ginkgo Village, almost every household has ten or eight acres of land on the edge of Jinhu Lake. If you can earn 100,000 yuan by growing vegetables, life will be much better. In addition, although Ginkgo Village has flooded with many tourists, it does not require too much manpower to receive tourists, and there are still a lot of idle labor in the village.
Furthermore, the villagers still have a strong sense of farmers in their bones. They think that throwing the land away in this way is a great sin!
In Ginkgo Village, 80% of the villagers' surname is Xiao, and most of the other villagers also have various marriages with the Xiao family. Everyone in the entire village is related to the relationship, and it can be related by turning two turns.
For several consecutive days, Xiao Jinxu, as the head of the Xiao family, and the director of the Ginkgo Village Committee, was soon approached by his tribe and villagers.
The villagers knew in their hearts that the reason why the vegetables from Xiaojia Farm were sold at a good price was nothing more than finding high-end hotels outside to acquire them. This relationship is not something that ordinary people can do. Even if the villagers want to expand the vegetable planting area, they must first find a way out, so that they can be foolproof.
Soon, Xiao Jinxu was a little depressed by the villagers. But he was not the person who was talking to Xiao Family Farm. Many things cannot be decided in one sentence. He could only come to Xiao Feng and others to discuss them.
"Xiao Feng, now the tribe members see that the Caiyuanzi's income is not low, and they all want to join in. What do you think?" In front of Xiao Feng, the nephew, Xiao Jinxu rarely put on the airs of an elder. After all, all the changes in the village over the past six months have been in the eyes of Xiao Jinxu.
Xiao Jinxu knew about the Xiao family farm that several nephews and Xiao Dazhi had a good understanding of, but the specific situation was not clear. After all, he was not the direct person in charge. What's more, since the project of Ginkgo School and Ginkgo Health Center was launched, Xiao Jinxu has invested a lot of time and energy on the two construction sites, and it is reasonable to have no time to take care of it.
Therefore, when the tribe members and fellow villagers asked to join the "Xiao Family Green Vegetables" industry, Xiao Jinxu handed over the decision to Xiao Feng.
"There is no problem with this!" Xiao Feng said without being shy, "The farm's vegetable garden is just a demonstration area. The main purpose is to stimulate and encourage villagers to join, and build Ginkgo Village into a production base for high-end green vegetables!"
Xiao Feng had long expected the reactions of the tribe members and villagers, so it was normal for Xiao Jinxu to help the villagers go out.
"However, will so many families joining in the village have an impact on our vegetable garden?" Xiao Feng's pleasure made Xiao Jinxu happy, but he soon thought of some trouble.
No matter what, Xiao Jinxu is also the second generation boss of the Xiao family. His own interests will always be the first. Although he wants to seek benefits for the villagers and tribesmen, this is without damaging the rights and interests of the Xiao family.
Based on Xiao Jinxu's understanding of the various situations in Ginkgo Village, there are at least 2,000 mu of land suitable for growing vegetables by the lake. If all this land is used to grow vegetables, will it have an impact on the income of Xiaojia Farm?
"Uncle, you don't have to worry about this!" Xiao Feng waved his hand and said with a smile: "The market outside is so big that it is not something that only thousands of acres of land in Ginkgo Village can accommodate. If we want to create a brand of 'Ginkgo Village Green Vegetables', we must look farther away!"
In Xiao Feng's plan, Xiaojia Farm will open 1,000 acres of land, and the villagers of Ginkgo Village will reclaim another 2,000 acres, and the planting scale is also considered a waste of time. 3,000 acres of land, with an annual output of 10,000 tons of various types of vegetables, which seems to be a lot, but looking at the entire domestic market, it is simply a drop in the bucket!
Xiao Feng was not worried that the villagers' joining would harm the interests of the Xiao family, but instead allowed the Xiao family to gain more benefits!
"That's good!" Xiao Jinxu didn't ask too many details, and nodded and said, "Then I'll go back and talk to you about the village representatives, settle the matter early, and start construction early when the weather is sunny!"
Xiao Jinxu, who is over 60 years old, has already passed the age of fighting for power and profit. His biggest wish is that his family will flourish and the villagers of Ginkgo Village can live a good life. Young people are motivated and hand over the family's industry to them. Xiao Jinxu is very relieved.
"Let's just ask the village representative to find Brother Tao and Xiaoqiang, they are all dealing with the farm's affairs!"
After the general direction of the matter was decided, the specific handling was handed over to several persons in charge of the farm. Xiao Feng, the hand-off manager, finally only provided space for the Lingquan soaked vegetable seeds!
Now, Xiao Feng needs more time to let Jinghu Ranch and Jinghu Dairy get on track as soon as possible so that he can have more funds and expand his career.
After Xiao Feng nodded, the negotiations between Xiao Family Farm and the villagers of Ginkgo Village officially kicked off. Xiao Feng did not come forward and left all the matter to Xiao Tao and Xiao Qiang to handle.
After bargaining, the villagers of Ginkgo Village agreed to invest in land and jointly established the "Ginkgo Village Green Vegetable Planting Base" with Xiaojia Farm to occupy 50% of the shares. Xiaojia Farm needs to be responsible for the operation and sales of the base, as well as all investments. The Xiaojia Farm will contract various work plans in the base to the villagers, and villagers can charge certain remuneration based on the difficulty of each work plan, which is also an important measure to mobilize the enthusiasm of the villagers.
Soon, after the plot close to the vegetable garden of Xiaojia Farm was measured, the large rotary tractor of Xiaojia Farm began to enter the site, and the vigorous construction started!
…………
"It's very fulfilling!" Standing on the dam, Xu Mengyao looked at the tractor roaring at the foot of the mountain and suddenly asked Xiao Feng.
Over the past few days, the negotiations between Xiao Family Farm and the villagers have become the hottest topic in Ginkgo Village. People in Ginkgo Village have heard of it, and Xu Mengyao is no exception.
With Xu Mengyao's knowledge, he naturally knew that this "green vegetable planting base" was actually a reflection of the Xiao family's concessions to the villagers. According to the popular company-to-farm business model, it is a blessing that villagers who only invest in the land can obtain 30% of the shares in the planting base. Even villagers in some places are often taken away by large companies at an annual rent of less than 1,000 yuan per mu and carried out large-scale centralized planting.
According to the current yield rate shown by Xiaojia Farm Vegetable Garden, the annual output value of each acre of land can be stable at about 20,000 yuan. 50% of the shares means that villagers can harvest 10,000 yuan per acre of land a year.
"There is too much money, it's just some digital changes!" Xiao Feng said with a faint smile: "Most of the villagers and relatives who have watched me grow up have the ability to make their lives better, why not do it?"
It is true that Xiao Feng can obtain the right to use these land from villagers at a low price by renting land and seeking more benefits. But in this way, he seems too greedy!
Ginkgo Village is said to be the place where the Xiao family started. How to drive the villagers to have common prosperity is Xiao Feng’s always thought.
From the current perspective, the launch of Jinghu Scenic Area and the "Green Vegetable Planting Base" will form two pillar industries, allowing Ginkgo Village to enter a well-off society.
"They are so lucky!" Xu Mengyao stayed for a while and whispered: "Ni Ni and I are also very lucky!"
In the past month since he was in charge of "Jinghu Dairy", Xu Mengyao has gradually integrated into the life of Ginkgo Village. After all, he is a villager of Ginkgo Village and knows very well about the various situations in the village.
It is precisely because of Xiao Feng's large-scale investment in the Jinghu area that Ginkgo Village has undergone earth-shaking changes over the past six months, and the villagers' per capita annual income has soared from the original 1,500 yuan to 6,000 yuan in 2008! According to some data in the first quarter of 2009, due to the opening of the Jinghu Scenic Area, the villagers' per capita income exceeded 5,000 in the first quarter, and the annual income exceeded 20,000 yuan.
Now that there is a ‘green vegetable planting base’, the income of the villagers in Ginkgo Village can increase, possibly reaching 30,000 yuan!
30,000 yuan is just a low income for domestic first-tier cities such as Haizhou and Kingsoft, but it is undoubtedly an astronomical figure in northwestern Yunnan!
It only takes two or three years to struggle on the poverty line to entering a well-off society. From this perspective, the villagers of Ginkgo Village are lucky enough.
As for Xu Mengyao herself, being able to enter Jinghu Dairy is considered to have found an important fulcrum of her own career; more importantly, because of Xiao Feng and his pet, Nini finally got rid of the mental nightmare brought by the car accident and gradually returned to normal.
Xu Mengyao believes that it won’t take long to hear her daughter’s voice again!
"Why are you so polite?" Xu Mengyao was so serious that Xiao Feng was at a loss.
Turning back to look at Xu Mengyao's face, which was like a freshly peeled egg, a faint fragrance drifted in with the wind, causing Xiao Feng's heart to jump wildly!
