Chapter 25 Yangshui Station

Ma Defu told the new director of Yuquan Camp about the construction of Yangshui Station, but he did not intend to report it up because he did not think this method was feasible.
Ma Defu couldn't help but miss his ex-supervisor and Zhang Shucheng. If he hadn't been transferred to study, he would definitely find a way to do this when he heard this.
Chen Jinshan accidentally met Ma Defu. Seeing Ma Defu's expression of disappointment, he couldn't help but ask what was going on.
Ma Defu talked about the urgency of building Yangshui Station, and also talked about the issue of An Yongfu preparing to bid for the bid and advance funding to build Yangshui Station.
"This is a good thing, why do I feel a little disappointed?"
"Our Jintan Village belongs to Yuquanying, but the superiors disagree. They think this is too risky. The construction of Yangshui Station requires waiting for the county to notify it."
Chen Jinshan thought that his current Minning Village and Jintan Village were actually the same village, with two teams, but because Minning Village is a cooperation between the east and the west, it is actually under independent jurisdiction. If he builds Yangshui Station here, he doesn’t have to discuss it with the county. As long as he applies, he will probably pass it.
"I think we can build Yangshui Station in the name of Minning Village as a cooperative project, so that the approval will be faster. In addition, there is no problem with the bidding and even advance funding construction mentioned by Comrade An Yongfu, which can be regarded as helping our government solve the problem."
"In this way, you go back to Minning Village with me, we will draft a document and submit a formal application to the above!"
Ma Defu didn't expect that the turn of things had changed. Things that had thought there was no hope now have turned around again.
Wu Yuejuan and Yang County Magistrate both saw the report Chen Jinshan wrote. They originally wanted to solve the local water use problem, but many projects were in trouble because of the water use problem. Now if Zhao Shucheng is really allowed to advance funding to build, the construction will be completed this year. There is no need to worry about the development of Yuquanying at that time, and it can even benefit more immigrants.
Chen Jinshan saw the approval of the construction of Yangshui Station. After finding that there was indeed no problem, he held a bidding meeting directly in Minning Village. However, because the company needed to advance funds to build it on its own, Zhao Shucheng finally only bids and successfully obtained the project.
"Yongfu, have you really got the project to build Yangshui Station? Can we start construction?"
Li Dayou also heard the news that Zhao Shucheng won the bid and came to inquire with excitement.
Zhao Shucheng shook his head and said, "Uncle Dayou, I did get the construction of Yangshui Station, but the construction cannot be started yet."
"Why? We will not need the water from Qingtongxia when we build the Yangshui Station earlier. Are you worried about wages? Don't worry, Russians can do it, how about it?"
"Uncle Dayou, this is not a problem of whether the wages are not paid. We must first build the Yangshui Station in one step. We will strive for decades to avoid any problems in this Yangshui Station and can continue to operate. In addition, how to build the Yangshui Station, which is more appropriate to build there? These are all some problems. Special people need to plan for us. It is only the first step for us to get the project now, and then the key to the problem is."
Li Dayou wanted to have a Yangshui Station, which belongs to his village, and asked directly: "What do you mean? Will the Yangshui Station be no longer built?"
Zhao Shucheng said: "Why didn't you do it? But I will invite experts to plan for us first, and then start construction."
"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and invite an expert?"
Zhao Shucheng said helplessly: "I have invited experts to check it out, but he must have time to check where the right place is, how to build it, etc. When construction needs to start, I will definitely contact the people in our village."
"Okay, if you start construction, you must tell me that I will also contribute."
"Don't worry, Uncle Dayou. If we really build Yangshui Station, our village and even the people in the surrounding villages have to do their part. Not only Yangshui Station, but also ditches in their respective areas must be built to avoid wasting water sources."
Zhao Shucheng was relieved when he saw Li Dayou leaving. This was not the first person to ask about the Yangshui Station, nor would he be the last person to ask. His uncle had come to ask specifically before, and he had also given up a lot of verbal explanations.
Seeing Zhao Shucheng's tired look, Li Shuihua couldn't help but ask, "Yongfu, why don't you go and have a rest?"
"No, maybe there are other people coming to ask. If I hide, they will think I am lying to others. Let's explain it to them. You said that there are so few people in the village who know how to read, otherwise I would just put the plan on the bulletin board, and there would definitely be no such things."
As the two were talking, they saw someone coming again, but they were not from the village, but Chen Jinshan.
"Hello, County Magistrate Chen, hello."
Chen Jinshan looked at the man in front of him seriously, which was very different from the literati who could write books in his impression. He had a unique temperament of a man from the northwest, with toughness, rebelliousness, etc., which could be attached to him.
"It's great. I've long wanted to come and see the powerful people in our Yuquan Camp, but because we were both busy, we finally met. It's really not easy."
"Mr. Chen, don't say that. If you want to see me, just a phone call."
"Different, different. By the way, what did you think about your Yangshui Station?"
"I can either not build the Yangshui Station. Once construction starts, we will definitely build a bigger one, so that it will last longer. I have asked experts to make plans before, and when the plan is completed, it will be able to build it."
"Well, I heard the villagers discuss this, but are you really willing to advance funding? This is not a small amount of money. It seems that Yuquanying or Minning Village does not have much money at the moment, so you can't return the money to you within one or two years."
"I'm not worried about this. Anyway, the court will give me the money sooner or later, so this is not a problem. Besides, as long as the problem of Yangshui Station can be solved, the development of Yuquanying will embark on the road of telling the truth, so there is no need to worry about future development issues."
"No, not bad, by the way, do you have any good suggestions for the development of Minning Village? The earthworm breeding, earthworm raising chickens, and even drilling wells you made before were very helpful for the development of Jintan Village and even Yuquanying."
Zhao Shucheng looked at Chen Jinshan with a serious look and knew that he really wanted to listen to Zhao Shucheng's suggestions. He was not those who only used superficial skills but actually acted as postures.
"Mr. Chen County Magistrate, if you have any suggestions, I really have a lot of them. Our Yuquanying is a Gobi Desert, and there are some deserts around it. There are very winds and sandstorms here often occur. The problem of sand control will become a big problem in the future. Before, everyone in Yuquanying was poor and didn't care about the issue of sand control at all, but with the improvement of living standards, sand control has become the top priority."
"Of course, if you rely solely on the government's strong recommendation, I'm afraid not many people are willing to really plant trees and control sand. This requires economic benefits to drive it. Moreover, this cannot be successful in the short term, and it requires long-term work."
Zhao Shucheng was talking and looking at Chen Jinshan, wanting to see if the other party was willing to do such a thing. Fortunately, Chen Jinshan had no intention of impatientness and was thinking about it.
Chen Jinshan really didn't expect that there would be a different receipt in Zhao Shucheng. It's good. When he heard Zhao Shucheng's words just now, he also thought of the professor he met on the train, Ling Yinong. The other party was studying sand control or mushroom grass. This could be achieved by controlling sand and making profits.
"Of course, sand control is not the most important thing. The most important thing is to make the people in the village rich. Although the breeding of earthworms and chickens made everyone rich before, this is just a small amount of money. Each household cannot raise many chickens at all. There are up to fifty chickens in a crop, and only 50 chickens can be raised a year. If there are more food and earthworms at home, they will not be able to supply them, so they can only buy grain and feed them."
"So I'm thinking about how to make the villagers earn more money? Then I need to ask for money from the fields. The price of grain cannot be sold. After many years, the price of grain is similar, so if you want to get rich, you can only find a way to grow some cash crops."
"When I went to the Agricultural Science Institute with Ma Defu before, I found that they had done a lot of research, but because the people here have not solved the problem of food and clothing, they have no idea of ​​letting them grow cash crops. But now every household has some spare money, and the next thing to grow cash crops is feasible."
"The first is the cultivation of Chinese medicinal materials. This is the most profitable and most in line with the Gobi Desert. The wolfberry here in Ningxia is the best in the country. Not only is it full of grains, but it also has more sweetness and nutritional content than wolfberry in other places."
"Well, think about whether to plant one acre of wolfberry, one acre of astragalus, and one acre of daylily in your home field. When you see which one can make more money, you will mobilize everyone to plant it. You can also try other fruit trees, walnuts, red dates, etc. Not only do you want to plant the most, but grapes."
Chen Jinshan asked curiously: "Why?"
"Well, I have read a lot of books and have some understanding of grape planting places in many areas. Most of them are similar to Jintan Village. The soil here has high sand and gravel content, altitude, sunshine, and climatic conditions. I went to Shanghai to drink red wine once before, and the price was much higher than our white wine. Wow, thinking that if grapes can be really grown here, it will be processed into red wine, not to mention the foreign red wine brands, but just comparing domestic red wine, this is more money than growing grain. Moreover, if you can't make red wine, just selling grapes and making raisins can make a lot of money."
Chen Jinshan was very interested in Zhao Shucheng's words, but he had not undergone relevant research and could not guarantee the project prospects, but it did not prevent him from asking why Zhao Shucheng did not grow grapes.
"Then why don't you plant grapes?"
"What can we do? It's because grape planting is a large-scale thing that has high returns. It's only six acres of land. There are too many projects, so we can only put it back."
"Mr. Chen, if you want to rent land to plant grapes, can you give me 100 acres of land?"
Chen Jinshan shook his head and said, "It is definitely not possible now. Now the land is mainly for immigrants. Only in the later stage can the land be contracted to individuals. Moreover, this is not something I can decide by myself, so I need to report it before talking about it."
