Rebirth 84, starting from fish farming

Chapter 495 This old face of mine!
The next day, Lu Changhua and his wife went to the company first, walked around, showed their faces, and then went home.

Along the way, looking at the fallen wheat in the low-lying areas, Lu Changhua felt a little depressed.

That's what worries him.

Grain production depends on the weather.

When the year is good, the grain harvest will be abundant, but when the year is bad, the grain production will be reduced.

But a bumper harvest of grain doesn’t mean you can make a profit.

This also depends on the grain purchase price that year.

The farm still provides grain reserves to the national grain depot.

There are tasks every year.

As for those private grain and oil processing enterprises in the market, the purchase price is higher than that of grain depots.

But no matter how high it is, it's not much higher.

Especially in recent years, after the gradual liberalization of the grain and oil market, not only domestic grain prices have been affected, but also the companies that produce grain are in even greater difficulty.

Especially in the past two years, the CIF price of soybeans, corn and wheat imported from North America is cheaper than our production cost.

This gives rise to the so-called grain inversion problem.

On one side is cheap imported food, and on the other is domestic food with high costs.

Which one do companies in the market use?

Obvious.

The cost of imported grain is lower and the market price is more advantageous.

Many private companies and joint ventures use imported grain.

State-owned enterprises must use domestically produced food.

The cost is higher than that of competitors. When it comes to the market, the product is not competitive at all.

In order to maintain the market, they can only sell at market prices.

This means that if they sell more products, they will lose more money.

This creates an inversion.

In order to preserve these enterprises, the state must provide subsidies, otherwise the enterprises will collapse.

This is about grain processing companies.

Grain production companies also face the same contradiction.

Take Changshui Farm as an example.

Which of the agricultural machinery, accessories, oil, seeds, and fertilizers they use are not bought at market prices?
The grain they produce is sold to the national grain depot at a fair price.

Instead of selling at market price.

This has resulted in high farm production costs, but the food sold cannot fetch high prices.

Every year, farms experience varying degrees of losses.

In order to ensure the food production of the farm, the state can only provide subsidies every year.

And this subsidy only keeps the farm in balance.

Therefore, the farm has no choice but to strictly control employees from selling grain privately.

Which employee doesn’t want to sell at a high price?

Who doesn’t want to make a profit?

However, if workers make private profits, the country will not have affordable food.

There will be problems with food supply in many big cities in the south.

It is said that Beidahuang is the breadbasket of the people of the whole country, and this is true.

But the farmer has taken on the unknown pain for this. Who knows? !
The world outside has long been a market economy, and people are getting rich.

But what about the farm?

What about farm workers?
If they continue to farm and grow food, they will not have this opportunity!

This is also the main reason why many farm workers run away to work and never even come back.

Lu Changhua has also been thinking about how to make the farm develop.

Although he doesn't have any ideas yet, a deep-rooted idea is that he can't make a fortune or get rich just by growing food.

There must be another way.

As soon as Lu Changhua and Wang Yao arrived home, they attracted many people to watch.

This time, not only the people from my two rooms came, but most of the people from the branch came.

Lu Changhua has been resting in Beining for the past two days, and the news on Beining TV station has been promoting him a lot.

Lu Changhua and his rescue team performed very well in this flood fight.

Not only CCTV and the provincial TV station reported on him, but Bac Ninh City TV station also spared no effort to report on the Changhe rescue team.

Naturally, Lu Changhua's shots are indispensable.

Who in the entire farm doesn’t know Lu Changhua in the three-point field? !

Today's Lu family is a special existence in people's minds.

Especially the two sons of the Lu family are people who people talk about.

The eldest son, Lu Changzhong, went to the city to become an official. It is said that he was highly appreciated by the leaders.

The younger son, Lu Changhua, started farming and became rich early.

Now he is a big boss with a net worth of over [-] million.

It is said that half of Beining now belongs to the Lu family.

People privately call Lu Changhua "Lu Bancheng", which is not what he thinks of as "Lu Bancheng".

As soon as his car entered the venue, someone spread the news that Boss Lu was back.

For a time, adults and children gathered at Lu's house.

People who had received the news a long time ago were already gathering at the entrance of Lu's courtyard.

Lao Lu and Mother Lu were talking to these people.

Think back then.

When Lu Changhua first started contracting the reservoir, how many people were envious and jealous? !

People who are jealous will think of all kinds of ways to destroy it.

Anyone who is jealous spreads jokes and sarcastic remarks about the Lu family? !
But now, the Lu family has become a climate, and those envy and jealousy have turned into admiration.

No one dared to be jealous.

When you have grown to the point that no one can move you down, no one will dare to move you down.

This is human nature.

People will only bully those opponents who are weaker than themselves and those whom they think can compete with them.

They will only fawn over those who are so powerful that they can only look up to them.

How could the Lu family not know this?

But when you reach the level of the Lu family, there is no need to worry about these people.

Lao Lu and Mother Lu greeted with smiles on their faces.

"Lao Lu, your family is so majestic in Changhua. This time it has made our farm proud!"

"Yes, yes! Look at the news on TV now, it's all about Changhua! Tsk, tsk, he's such a big celebrity!"

"It's not bad. I've said before that Changhua and his two brothers will definitely be successful. Look, it's true!"

All kinds of congratulations and flattery kept coming.

Lao Lu nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, yes!"

But even so, he didn't let these people enter the yard.

When the Mercedes-Benz arrived at the door of Hu's house, he couldn't walk.

The road is full of people. "Pull over."

Wang Yao parked the car on the roadside of Hu's house.

The couple got out of the car.

He opened the trunk and took out two large bags.

The two of them walked home.

People on the street greeted Lu Changhua and his wife with smiles on their faces.

"Changhua is back?"

"Is it hard to fight the flood?"

"Let's see the real person."

Lu Changhua and Wang Yao smiled and nodded with everyone.

People also consciously moved out of the way.

When they arrived at the entrance of the hospital, Lao Lu and Mother Lu came over to greet them.

"Son, are you back? You've lost weight."

When Mother Lu saw her dark and thin son, her heart ached.

In the past, when Lu Changhua was at home, he was fat and white.

But looking at it now, I have lost at least ten kilograms of meat.

"Mom, I'm back."

"Come back, come back."

Lao Lu nodded, his throat a little blocked.

Just as he was talking, his father-in-law and mother-in-law squeezed over and pulled Lu Changhua to look left and right.

"Thinner, thinner."

Mother Lu also responded repeatedly.

Mr. Mediterranean, Lao Hutou, and Lao Hantou all crowded over.

Lu Changhua and his wife were overwhelmed with all kinds of greetings.

"Dear uncles, aunts and uncles, I'm back. Thank you all for your concern. My house is too small to entertain you. We will talk to you when we have the opportunity."

Lu Changhua waved to the crowd and took his wife to the courtyard.

People with ordinary relations said hello and left.

People close to the neighbors also came into the yard.

"Dad, Mom!"

Xiao Nuomi and her friends finally broke into the crowd.

The big bag in Lu Changhua's hand was taken over by his parents.

Wang Yao hugged her daughter and kissed her again and again.

Lu Changhua hugged his son and kissed him a few times.

This time, not only did Lu Changhua not come for more than a month, but so did Wang Yao.

She was securing supplies in Beining, so how could she have time to go home.

The two children haven't seen their parents for more than a month.

The couple hugged the child and made love.

It took a long time to coax Nuomi and Sheng Yu who were crying.

"Godfather, godmother, me, me."

Hu Le jumped anxiously outside.

"Haha, I saw you!"

Lu Changhua waved, and Hu Le squeezed in happily.

Lu Changhua kissed him on the dark cheek.

Little Hu Le was so happy that his eyes disappeared.

"Godmother, godmother!"

He pointed to the other side of his face.

Wang Yao kissed Bajia and slapped him on the butt.

"Uncle, uncle."

Zhao Ya came over timidly.

Wang Yao took her first and kissed her too.

"Zhao Ya, be good or not!"

"good."

"You and Nuomi are going to school in two days, and your aunt will take you there then."

"Ah."

Zhao Ya smiled happily.

Today's Lu family is destined to be lively.

The neighbors came.

Another big team building.

Today, the old ladies won't let Wang Yao take action no matter what they say.

Four old ladies took care of dinner.

The old men in the Lu family's living room all asked curious questions.

For them, if they can't get to the front line, it's because they are older. If they could be ten years younger, what would they do to you young people?

Old Hutou said that the spitting stars were flying everywhere.

"Changhua, tell me, if we old guys go up, will it be effective?"

"Can, can, definitely can!"

"Let me just say it?! We are still useful!"

Old Hantou is an old revolutionary. Although he is older, his competitive spirit is still the same as before.

"If I had retired, I would have gone up long ago."

Mr. Mediterranean is very objective.

"Pull it down, let's go up with a handful of bones and flesh? What are you doing up there? You can't even catch a bigger fish, so you're talking about fighting floods?!"

"Cough cough."

Seeing that his eldest brother was so disrespectful to Lao Han, Wang Dejiang coughed as a reminder.

"What? You didn't see me when I was capable! Lao Lu, tell me, what was I like back then?!"

"You were so powerful back then!"

Old Lu winked at the Mediterranean Sea.

The old bearded man looked at the two old men's glances and knew there was something fishy.

"Ahem, oh, Changhua, if Dagui is here, he has to go with you."

"Yes, Dagui's temper can't be tolerated! He will definitely get it!"

Lu Changhua quickly stroked his hair.

Old Hutou blinked, raised his beard, and said regretfully: "Oh, you said he just didn't have this chance! What a pity, otherwise there would be news about him on TV now."

The emotional old Hutou felt that he was at a disadvantage.

How embarrassing is my son now!
How shameless am I? !
Oh, my old face!
