Alpine Orchard

Chapter 433 Five Ditches

After Zhou An made a few phone calls, he said that the matter of finding someone was settled.

Ye Mo smiled. He is an agricultural production manager. In some places, he is called an orchard manager or a pastoral manager...

Academic qualifications, skills, etc. are actually not particularly important.

For an orchard with a certain scale, the management ability of the production manager is more important than the technology.A production manager who can call more than a dozen people in a few phone calls, at least to show that this person has a good interpersonal relationship.

And on the phone, Zhou An only said that Gao Shanping was being paid well and was recruiting...would you like to come and see.

"It's time to eat." Lin Xiaomian shouted.

Ye Mo got up and made a gesture of invitation, and the three went to the living room.

At noon, there are ham, twice-cooked pork, cold Zhe Ergen, boiled wax gourd... four dishes.

"Drink something?" Ye Mo said.

"I want to drive." Li Xuebin said with a smile: "You said to drink earlier, I brought the driver over."

"You know you're here for lunch, so why don't you bring the driver." Ye Mo looked at Master Zhou with a smile, and said, "Let's have some beer."

"I only have the capacity for a bottle of beer."

"It's the same with me." Ye Mo got up and brought a few cans of beer over, and said, "I'm the kind of drinker who doesn't persuade people. I drink for comfort..."

Zhou An nodded, took the beer, and opened it.

Ye Mo brought beer and a few bottles of juice...

"The temperature is getting warmer now, have the crayfish in the reservoir come out for activities?" Li Xuebin ate a piece of ham with fat, opened the juice, and said, "It's been a while since I ate crayfish, I'm panicking."

"I don't know, I haven't visited the reservoir yet." Ye Mo said, "Go and see later."

"I'm used to the crayfish from your side, but I always feel that the crayfish outside are not as tasty."

"Boss Zhang's New Zealand lobster, big aolong, and king crab are no better than my crayfish."

"It's not the same." Li Xuebin waved his hand: "It's okay to eat those things once in a while, but if you eat too much, it's not comfortable. It's still delicious to eat crayfish, spicy, minced garlic... paired with craft beer, Meidi very."

"Go and try a few ground cages later. I haven't eaten crayfish for a long time, let's see if I can catch more."

Zhou An looked at Li Xuebin, then at Ye Mo...

He has known Li Xuebin for seven or eight years, and he knows that this is a big boss with a net worth of over [-] million.Zhou An only knew Li Xuebin, and the relationship was very ordinary.

They say everyone is equal.

But in fact, people have classes.Birds of a feather flock together……

Zhou An has known Li Xuebin for many years, and at most they just meet and say hello, and they don't get along much.But looking at the relationship between Li Xuebin and Ye Mo, the relationship between the two seems to be very good.

Seeing Li Xuebin's attitude towards Ye Mo, Zhou An was quite surprised.

"By the way, do you still contract the land?" Li Xuebin looked at Ye Mo.

"Where is the land?"

"Hongge." Li Xuebin said: "Red Mountain Town is on the opposite side of the national road, and there are nearly [-] mu."

"You mean Wutiaogou Ecological Agriculture Company?" Ye Mo asked.

Li Xuebin nodded: "Wutiaogou is filing for bankruptcy, and the company's biggest asset is more than 9000 mu of land in Wutiaogou. A lawyer Lao Zhou knows is helping their company go bankrupt."

"Lawyers assisting companies in bankruptcy, is there such an operation?"

Lin Xiaomian gave Ye Mo a blank look, and said, "A big company is going bankrupt. If you want to go through the bankruptcy procedure as soon as possible, it's best to entrust a professional company lawyer to assist the company in bankruptcy, so as to avoid more losses."

"Such a big company, if it says it's bankrupt, is it bankrupt?" Ye Mo was a little surprised.

"Last year's climate was too extreme. There was no rainfall for more than half a month of extreme high temperature. Many orchards with poor irrigation conditions suffered heavy losses." Zhou An said.

"The main reason why Wutiaogou went bankrupt was because he wanted to engage in ecological and organic planting. If he didn't play well, he lost himself." Li Xuebin shrugged.

Organic farming is good, but the investment is too high.

Especially organic orchards, purely organic orchards...the output of orchards in the past few years was low, and the appearance of the orchards would not be very good.Organic orchards are a long-term investment, and the management costs are several times that of ordinary orchards.

"How much will it cost to take down the Wutiaogou land?" Ye Mo asked.

"Estimated, around 2 million."

"So expensive."

"More than 700 acres, and there are two dormitory buildings, multiple warehouses, and relatively complete irrigation... It's not cheap."

"[-] million, if you sell me, you can have [-] million." Ye Mo shook his head with a smile.

Even if there are 2 million yuan, Ye Mo will not invest in Wutiaogou, it is not worthwhile.

Ye Mo's Gaoshanping was acquired for 1600 million at that time, with a total area of ​​2600 mu...

Ye Mo has no money, and doesn't want to bother.

For the current Ye Mo, steady development is enough, don't take risks.

"You... Don't say two hundred million, one billion is worth it." Li Xuebin looked at Ye Mo: "For the land in Wutiaogou, Lao Zhou and I have a lot of ideas. We buy and sell fruits. I thought about setting up my own fruit planting base..."

Ye Mo nodded: "Then try it."

"Wutiaogou has 9600 mu, 5000 mu of coffee, 3000 mu of mango, and some scattered planting areas. If you are free these days, you can be my advisor and accompany me to see if Wutiaogou is worth investing in. After all, 2 million, we are a little uncertain." Li Xuebin said.

"I..." Ye Mo thought he couldn't understand these things, but just as soon as he left his mouth, he took it back and said, "My father-in-law will have a reception tomorrow, and my family will have a reception the day after tomorrow... the morning of the day after tomorrow, let's go and see together. "

"Okay." Li Xuebin held up the juice, touched Ye Mo, and said, "There are also many hills and less flat land on the Wutiaogou side. Coffee is grown on steep slopes, and mangoes are grown on gentle slopes and flat land. If Wudaogou is taken down , I want to cut up the mango and replace it with loquat. What do you think?"

"I don't know loquat." Ye Mo shook his head and said, "How much loquat yield per mu and how to manage it... I don't know. However, you said earlier that Wutiaogou went bankrupt because of organic planting? I think Organic farming can continue."

"There are too many ways to grow organically. And the mangoes in Wutiaogou ripen in July and August... the price of mangoes at this time is cheap. Moreover, the yield of pure organic planting is low, and the investment in pest control is also very large." Li Xuebin thought about it Thinking about it, he said again: "If the appearance of the fruit is not good, even if it has obtained organic certification, it will be difficult to sell it at a high price."

Chatting, eating...

After dinner, Ye Mo took Zhou An and Li Xuebin to the greenhouse.

First go to the muskmelon greenhouse.

The melon vines of the second crop of melons have grown again.

It doesn't look very good, the most important thing is that it hasn't been managed for ten days.

From Ye Mo's point of view, the melon is not growing very well, and many subvines have grown... These subvines have absorbed the nutrients of the fruiting vines.

But in Zhou An's eyes, these melons are growing very well.
