Mountain Village Chicken Tycoon

Chapter 71

If the environmental pollution caused by blind economic development is not taken seriously, the consequences in the future will be very scary.

In 2003, the phenomenon of indiscriminate mining in coal mines was very serious, and the phenomenon of overloaded and speeding large trucks transporting coal was also very serious, making the entire coal mining area a mess of smoke.At one time, the pollution in Jin Province was worse than that in Hebei Province. Later, the disorderly development of iron and steel enterprises in Ji Province caused the pollution in Ji Province to surpass Jin Province and become the most polluted place in the country.

There are not many coal mines in Luzhong City, but there are a few. The most important factor affecting the environment of Laigang County is the Luzhong Iron and Steel Plant.

This is a large steel factory with an annual output of 500 million tons of steel. For a small county with an area of ​​only 23 square kilometers and a population of only [-], the pollution is devastating.

By 2007, if you drove to the coking plant in the Luzhong Iron and Steel Plant, and got out of the car, the heavily polluted air outside would be overwhelming.

In Gangcheng County, the life expectancy of ordinary people is very impressive.

Looking at the polluted holly trees on both sides of the road and the black soot on the road, Zhao Qingshan frowned: "Is it necessary?"

Zhao Qingshan was a little helpless. If economic development must be at the cost of polluting the environment, then what is the point of economic development?
What kind of benefits has the so-called economic prosperity brought to ordinary people?
Are people living after 2018 happier than people living in 1978?
Yes, in 1978, supplies were scarcer than in 2018.In 1978, ordinary people could not eat meat once a year, they had no cars to travel, and their clothes were not as bright as later.However, people in 2018 could not breathe the fresh air in 1978, drink the clean water in 1978, or eat the healthy vegetables and meat in 1978.

In 2006, at the coking plant of Luzhong Iron and Steel Plant, five or six people were found to have lung cancer. They were all young people in their 40s and [-]s. What terrible air pollution!
Zhao Qingshan clenched his fists and made up his mind: with my current ability, I want to ensure that the East Ridge, Nanshan and Beihe of Phoenix Mountain will not be polluted; The environment of this town is not polluted; if I develop better in the next step, then I must protect the environment of the entire Laigang County; of course, I must work hard to develop in order to improve the environment of Luzhong City To protect...even, the entire Qilu Province, the entire East China, and the whole country's environment are also protected.

Zhao Qingshan took out the mobile phone in his pocket and checked the time. It was already 02:30 in the afternoon. Li Hong probably woke up even if he took a nap at this time.

Because chicken farmers usually stay up late at night, they will go to bed at noon.

"Hey, is that Brother Li? I'm Xiao Zhao. I'm in Sidian Town right now. There's a telegraph pole next to me. Okay, let me walk to the east."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Qingshan walked east along an asphalt road covered with soot.

After walking less than 100 meters, a middle-aged man with thinning forehead came out from the alley in front, and waved to Zhao Qingshan with a smile.

This is Li Hong, a chick dealer who specializes in selling chickens.

There is a large red jade chicken hatchery in Sidian Town, and these chick dealers have monopolized the hatchery's chick sales, and those small chicken farmers who want to raise chickens can only go through the hands of these chick dealers Come to ask for goods.

During the period from 1993 to 2001, there were still a lot of farmers raising chickens in the countryside, and then these big chicken dealers sold the chickens to the countryside for wholesale to peddlers, and let the peddlers go to the village to sell them.

It costs [-] cents for big dealers to get chicks from the hatchery, and then it costs one yuan and ten cents to peddlers, but it costs two yuan to ordinary people.

However, by 2003, the sales of chicklings in rural areas had shrunk to a very small level, almost less than 20.00% of the original value. Therefore, the chickling dealers ordered from hatcheries were mainly sold. To the chicken farmer.

The hatchery in Sidian mainly hatches red jade chickens. Of course, as long as there are breeding eggs, they can also hatch grass chickens, no-Ma chickens, laying hens, and white-feathered chickens.

Zhao Qingshan asked Li Hong to help contact a batch of No-Majs, and the old roosters he supplied to Qishan were mainly No-Majs.

Zhao Qingshan took two quick steps, came to Li Hong, reached out and shook Li Hong's hand: "Brother Li, I have to trouble you again."

"Xiao Zhao, don't be polite, I'm just here to do this, so there's no trouble. Is your chicken coop ready?"

Li Hong didn't know that Zhao Qingshan bought all the chicken coops from the chicken farmer at the bottom of the mountain, and then Zhao Qingshan said: "The chicken coops are all ready, I'll bring you some Luzhong specialties for you to try."

Li Hong smiled and took the two packages that Zhao Qingshan handed over, and said: "We are all acquaintances, so don't spend money like this in the future."

What Zhao Qingshan brought was a pack of sausages from Taishunzhai and a gift box of Xiangshan melon seeds, both of which are special products of Luzhong City.

When they arrived at Li Hong's house, Zhao Qingshan saw that his house was in the south of the village, at the end of the alley.There is a plain here, and you can't even see a mountain at all.

Li Hong's family lived in a small two-story building. In the whole village, their family could be considered relatively wealthy.After all, while raising chickens, he also sold chicken seedlings, so naturally he made a lot of money.

Li Hong's chicken farm is next to their house, separated by a road about ten meters wide, which is the place where the cart stops when the chickens are gone.

Their family raises laying hens, and he and his wife are the ones who do the work. Because Li Hong often has to go out to distribute chicks, his wife is responsible for taking care of the children and the chicken coop at home.

He has two daughters, the eldest is 11 years old and the youngest is three.

When Zhao Qingshan came in, he saw Li Hong's two daughters, and was suddenly a little embarrassed to realize that he didn't buy anything for the children.

The two girls were so nervous that they hid behind their mother, not even daring to look at Zhao Qingshan.

"My daughter is too shy. This is your Uncle Zhao."

However, despite Li Hong's encouragement, his two daughters dare not come out from behind their mother.

Li Hong handed the sausage and melon seeds brought by Zhao Qingshan to his wife, and said, "Xiao Zhao brought it here, you are so kind."

Li Hong's wife also smiled and said, "That's right, you're very polite."

Looking at the Xiangshan gift bag in Li Hong's wife's hand, Zhao Qingshan hurriedly realized, pointed and said, "There is nothing, just some sausages and melon seeds. Quickly unpack the melon seeds and give them to the children."

Seeing that there were melon seeds to eat, Li Hong's two daughters became lively, and gradually, they dared to talk to Zhao Qingshan.
