1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

Chen Tiezhu didn't have as many burdens as Han Xiuying. When Ma Zhanhua invited him, he finished his meal happily.

After wiping his mouth, he went directly to Ma Zhanhua's office.

"You are so troublesome. Have you completed the formalities with Wei Dabao from the forest farm?" Ma Zhanhua asked with a smile.

"Not yet. I'm waiting for a call." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Although the leader has made the decision directly, we have to wait for the formal documents to be approved. After all, this time it has attracted too much attention. I have to be careful about what I say and do."

Ma Zhanhua looked at him with amusement, "Now, I feel that you are a little bit unsure about what you do. Tell me the bottom line, how confident are you in growing economic land."

"Leader, this is only you who asked. I won't tell anyone else." Chen Tiezhu thought for a while and said.

"As long as there is no flood disaster, I am still 70% sure. Let's talk about watermelons. As long as the fertilizer is guaranteed, it is not a big problem to achieve a yield of 5,000 kilograms per mu."

"Even if we sell it at a wholesale price of 10 cents, it will be 500 yuan. After planting watermelons, there are radishes and cabbages for the next crop. Even if they are cheaper, they can still create some income for me."

"And I am currently considering whether to go wholesale or retail. Basically, the price difference is double. Here, the freight fee will account for about half."

"But even so , even if all the miscellaneous expenses are deducted, it is still more profitable than farming in the field. Of course, if there is a flood, it will be over.

"If the weather is not hot in summer, the price of watermelons will definitely go down. When it is sold in small quantities, it seems to be as expensive as 20 cents per pound? In this case, it is only 1.23 cents.

"Planting and high yield are not a problem, because I am willing to invest. The quality of watermelons is not a problem either, we will take good care of them. But whether it is hot in summer depends on God.

"In addition to watermelons, I care more about It's greenhouse vegetables. I've been to the provincial capital, and I was so tempted by the green chives they were selling. "

"People's lives are better now, at least they don't have to be as tight on food and drink as before. It's not incomprehensible that rich people eat fresh vegetables in winter."

Ma Zhanhua nodded, "I heard you want to grow potatoes, is this okay? And such a large area of ​​radishes and cabbages, can they be sold well in the next autumn?"

"Leader, this involves my next plan." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Potatoes are a very popular home-cooked dish. But they have a disadvantage, which is that they are not easy to store. Even if they are carefully stored at home, they are easy to sprout."

"So my idea is to build a matching cold storage in the future. This cold storage is not only for storing potatoes, but also for our mushrooms."

"Seeing that I can make money by growing mushrooms, there will definitely be people who will follow me to grow them. So we have to think about the possible dangers in advance and have a place to store them, so that we can ensure the stability of the market price."

"So many mushrooms rushed to the market at once, which must have brought down the price at once. No matter how good the stuff is, you can't afford to have too many."

"Good guy, you are so thoughtful? Why didn't you say it earlier?" Hearing his words, Ma Zhanhua asked in surprise.

"Leader, you said that I haven't taken care of anything here yet, what can you say? Either you think I'm bragging, or you think I'm crazy because of poverty." Chen Tiezhu said with a wry smile.

"You chose to believe me because you have already recognized my development direction in your heart. So I thought about this matter in my heart."

"Otherwise, why did I have a headache building a factory in the village? At that time, I had to leave space for building a cold storage. Fortunately, the Zhang family that messed with me is completely finished, otherwise Luo would definitely be in trouble."

"I have to say it, your idea is really good and clear, and you are not messing around." Ma Zhanhua nodded.

"Don't worry, if you need electricity, I will go to the substation to run electricity for you. Haven't applied for a phone from the post office yet? The town will help you apply."

"Leader, I can apply, but I really don't have the spare money now." Chen Tiezhu said with a wry smile.

"Let's use the phone in the village first. The funds are indeed a bit tight now. Wait until I can breathe a sigh of relief, and then slowly study it."

"Ah..., yes, it's really too expensive to install a phone now." Ma Zhanhua nodded.

He only thought about helping Chen Tiezhu develop, but forgot to consider the cost.

Even the telephones in the town and the villages were all national quotas, so there was no need to spend money.He pulled the phone line over.

"It's nothing, I'll set up the phone when I have money." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

He didn't expect that he only revealed a little bit of the follow-up plan, and Ma Zhanhua would listen to it all at once.

"To be honest, I'm under a lot of pressure now." Ma Zhanhua said seriously.

"No matter what relationship you have, we will put the mushroom planting pilot in our town now. In my heart, I really hope that you can grow this mushroom well."

"The situation in our town has not been very good in the past two years. There are more and more places to spend money, and we can't put all the burdens on each village."

"I also know that many farmers are very dissatisfied with the current heavy burden. I want to reduce it, but what if I do? Our town can't do it."

"You just work hard, and when everyone has money in their pockets in the future, they won't care about these reserved funds. . Let's say that our town's nursing home should have been renovated a long time ago, but I don't have the money. "

"We can get through this winter, and there's no problem with food and drink. If it starts to rain next year, it will be difficult to repair, at least the roof will have to be renovated."

"Now the salary of each private teacher is 27 yuan, and it has to be managed by our town. Every year, this is a huge expense."

Chen Tiezhu grinned, "Leader, our lives are so hard?"

"What do you think? The New Year is coming soon, and I still have to go out to beg for alms." Ma Zhanhua said helplessly.

It's not that I deliberately complained to Chen Tiezhu, but these things really gave him a headache. I can't tell others, and I don't know what they will say about him if it gets out.

"Leader, hold on, maybe there will be new changes next year. Anyway, I will definitely work hard, and I don't know what I can do." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Hahahaha..., although you've made me nervous, I'm really looking forward to your troubles now." Ma Zhanhua said with a big laugh.

Let's give it a try, otherwise the situation in the county will be a dead end.

"Dangdangdang"

At this time, there was a light knock on the door, and Han Xiuying pushed the door open and walked in.

"Mayor Ma, the county just called me, and the approval document for Tiezhu to contract the forest farm land has been issued." Han Xiuying said with a smile.
