pinnacle of power

Liu Qingyu is impatient!Farmers, farmers, farming is the foundation!If farmers stop farming, the world of Ruiyuan County will be unstable!

Liu Qingyu is a person who likes to read history very much.He is also quite familiar with historical events.Liu Qingyu remembered very clearly that in the history of China, almost every change of dynasty was initiated by peasants!

And the fundamental reason why farmers want to rebel is the land!It is not enough to eat and not warm, and life cannot be guaranteed!

The current national policy is relatively good, and farmers have land in their hands. However, if farmers have land in their hands but cannot rely on land to obtain the most basic living security, then this will also become the most unstable social factor.

In the following two days, Liu Qingyu successively received some farmer friends from various towns who came to the county committee to complain to Liu Qingyu. The main complaints of these people were that the seeds and agricultural materials were too expensive. , There is no way to make money by farming like this.The reason why farmers complained so much this time is that the price of seeds and agricultural materials in Ruiyuan County is more than half that of other prefectures and cities. This kind of abnormally high price is what the people are angry about. root cause.

The same catty of seeds sells for 10 yuan per catty in other cities, but in Ruiyuan County, it can be sold for [-] yuan per catty. I still like to buy it or not. Even the price in Lin County is three cents cheaper than Ruiyuan County. One, but it is unrealistic to go to Lin County to buy a few catties of seeds, which makes the farmers very dissatisfied.But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction. The number of farmers who complained like Liu Qingyu is limited. Liu Qingyu once talked with these people in detail and asked why there were so few farmers who complained. At that time, those farmers who complained told Liu Qingyu: "Liu Qingyu Secretary, it’s not that we farmers don’t want to complain, but because it’s been like this for so many years. It’s true that Ruiyuan County is a big seed county, but the purchase price of seeds here is already more expensive than other counties. It has been a fact for many years, and the seed price of our entire Nanhua City is much more expensive than other cities in Baiyun Province."

Liu Qingyu frowned at that time and asked, "Did the other leaders in the county never care about it before?"

The farmer said: "Do it? Of course! We reported it, and they promised to launch an investigation immediately, but the result is often that there is no news after waiting. Even if there is news, there is no real evidence, and no effective measures can be really taken. Secretary Liu, everyone says that you are the master of Qingtian, can you be the master of our common people this time? Otherwise, according to this year's market price, we will not make money at all from farming, and no one wants to plant I want to go out to work. To be honest, although working makes money, if we ordinary people can support their families by farming, no one is willing to leave their hometown to work!"

While speaking, the peasant's voice was miserable and mournful.

Liu Qingyu was touched after listening.

If he wasn't the secretary of the Ruiyuan County Party Committee, Liu Qingyu would definitely be beyond his reach, but now, he is the secretary of the Ruiyuan County Party Committee. How could Liu Qingyu not care if such a thing happened under his rule?

But what really made Liu Qingyu feel cold was that the people reported these things. The county agricultural bureau and the deputy county magistrate in charge of agriculture and other leaders had never reported to him these things that were related to the people's vital interests.

Why does this happen?Are the common people lying, or are the cadres of the Agricultural Port extremely inadequate in their work?

In order to find out the truth of the matter, Liu Qingyu took Song Xiaojun, the director of the County Party Committee Office, to make another private visit via WeChat, and went down to the major seed companies and agricultural materials companies in the county and various towns to conduct research.

However, the results of the investigation surprised Liu Qingyu.Liu Qingyu's investigation found that in the major seed companies in Ruiyuan County, although the names of the seeds sold are different, even Liu Qingyu, a layman, can tell that most of the seed companies use Yi Hai Group's latest corn variety, Gold-100, is promoted as the main variety, and the promotion is quite exaggerated. They promote whatever is resistant to lodging, pest resistance, and high yield.Even for those other seeds that were not marked with gold-100, after careful comparison, Liu Qingyu found that the essence of those seeds was still gold-100, but those seeds were packed in bulk.

Of course, there are some other brands of seeds, but most of these seeds are corn seeds of major foreign brands or seed brands controlled by foreign companies.There are very few real domestic seed brands in these seed companies. Only in some small seed stations in the countryside can you occasionally see some domestic brand seeds, but there are very few buyers. Those seeds of the Sea Group.

Liu Qingyu once asked several farmers who bought seeds why they didn’t buy domestic brands of seeds. The reasons given by the common people made Liu Qingyu very sad: “In fact, the harvest of domestic brands of seeds is not as good as that of foreign brands of seeds. Poor, but the problem is that no one bought those brands of seeds after we planted them. Our Ruiyuan County originally made money by planting corn seeds, but if we planted seeds but couldn’t sell them, wouldn’t we have to lose money? ?”

Liu Qingyu asked at the time: "Could it be possible to sell the seeds of Yihai Group?"

The farmer said: "Yes, we can definitely sell it, but the price is lower. Even if it is lower, we can at least sell it. It is still possible to earn 200 yuan per mu of land. If it is good, we can earn [-] yuan." Three to five hundred. But this year's market is so bad, it's a good thing if you don't lose money. Hey, I have to educate my children well when I go back. I can't be a farmer for anything. I have to study hard to pass the exam and get rid of the fate of being a farmer."

The dialogue with farmers made Liu Qingyu deeply aware of the serious problems in the field of agricultural production in Ruiyuan County.

It's not that the seeds of domestic brands are not good, but that no one is buying these seeds.Later, Liu Qingyu and other farmers got some other news after communicating. In fact, it was not that no one came to buy the seeds of these domestic brands, but that there were some distributors who bought these seeds. The traffic police and some people from the agricultural department will set up checkpoints on all the main roads in Ruiyuan County. All cars and dealers who buy domestic brand seeds will be fined for various reasons and charged various taxes and fees. , which made the cost of those dealers extremely high, and later they couldn't come to collect them.Because they found that buying the seeds of those brands of Yihai Group will not encounter such difficulties. Distributors are businessmen, and they do things with profit as the core. Harassment by relevant departments, why do they have to make seeds of domestic brands?

As a result, under these means and measures, the seeds of domestic brands have basically disappeared in Ruiyuan County, while the seeds of Yihai Group and other foreign brands have become popular in the seed market of Ruiyuan County, blooming everywhere.

After two days and two nights of field research, Liu Qingyu and Song Xiaojun were shocked by what they saw.

On the way back, Song Xiaojun said with a serious face: "Secretary Liu, it seems that the seed market in our Ruiyuan County is really chaotic. I think the relevant departments seem to be suspected of colluding with foreign seed companies!"

Liu Qingyu nodded and said: "Yes, I don't know if I don't look at it. I was shocked when I saw it. I have checked the price of corn seeds in other places. It is almost the same variety and brand. The price is only the price of seeds in Ruiyuan County. About half or two-thirds of that, the prices of seeds and various agricultural materials in our Ruiyuan County are inflated!"

Song Xiaojun said: "Yes, I think this is definitely caused by someone's intentional trading. As far as I know, Yihai Group occupies about 60% to 70% of the seed market in our Ruiyuan County. The sales price of their seeds directly determines the sales price of the entire seed market, and the other two foreign-funded brands account for about [-]% of the market share. Although their seeds are all localized, their prices are still high. The brand has already formed a price linkage mechanism, which is just like the LCD screen market, where prices are completely controlled by foreign brands!"

Liu Qingyu asked in a deep voice: "Director Xiaojun, did county magistrate Wei and the others never ask about this before?"

Song Xiaojun smiled wryly and said, "How could it be? They ask about it every year, but there is no result every year?"

Liu Qingyu asked, "Why?"

Song Xiaojun sighed and said: "Money can turn ghosts around! Now these foreign-funded enterprises are playing tricks on bribery. Many local companies are far behind them. What's more, they are in There are still people in Baiyun Province! With the cooperation of the upper and lower levels, even Wei Honglin and the others dare not get serious with these people!"

After Liu Qingyu finished listening, his expression became extremely serious.

Although Song Xiaojun's words are quite polite, they have already pointed out the essence of the matter. Obviously, Wei Honglin and the others dare not really take action against Yihai Group and those foreign seed brands.They are worried that their black hats will not be guaranteed!

At this moment, Liu Qingyu's cell phone rang suddenly.

The call was from Liu Xiaopang.

Liu Xiaopang's first sentence stunned Liu Qingyu, and Liu Xiaopang said: "Boss, I just finished my investigation, and I found that the seed market problem in your Ruiyuan County is too serious, the whole Ruiyuan County has almost become It’s the birthplace of GMO seeds! It’s really hard to find some non-GMO seeds in Ruiyuan County!”
