Chapter 2361 Agricultural Company ([-])

Xu Yanliang glanced at Yuan Fei, thinking that besides not being a student, he was not a secretary either.But when he said this, he became interested: "What did Boss Liu do that will be arrested by Guangzhou?"

"It's said that it's something about epidemic prevention. It's quite a big disturbance. It's said that Chairman Wen said that it's not an exaggeration to hang Liu Deshan..."

Xu Yanliang thought to himself that Yuan Fei really didn't regard himself as an outsider, and he had no one to tell the truth.

Yuan Fei couldn't stop thinking: "If you want to say that this Dongshan residence has a good relationship with our Mayor Tang. But Liu Deshan's matter is too big, and Mayor Tang dare not promise him anything..."

"Naturally." Xu Yanliang said casually, secretly reminding himself to be careful when speaking in front of Secretary Yuan, "It's a serious matter involving epidemic prevention. There are tens of thousands of people."

Bicycles go farther and farther along Shinsekai Avenue, and the buildings on both sides of the road are becoming more and more sparse.There are no more decent buildings along the road.At this time, two rather majestic buildings suddenly appeared in front of him.

On the left side of the road is a small Gothic brick church, and on the right side of the road is an "Australian-style" Taoist temple with the same architectural structure.

The two buildings are almost door to door, and it seems that the struggle for believers here is also fierce.

He had no intention of exploring the local religious situation and continued on his way.Yuan Fei reminded him: Although the road has been built to the bottom of Jinji Ridge, it is no longer an urban area, but mostly farmland and plantations.

"Is there a factory here?" Xu Yanliang remembered.

"The factories are all located near the port in Hexi District. After all, most of our raw materials here come from the sea, and it is more convenient to be close to the port." Yuan Fei said, "There are mostly large and small farms here, and some farms have supporting small agricultural product processing factories. .”

"Oh, speaking of farms, is the largest private farm here owned by Liu Xiang's family?"

"It belongs to his family, but to be precise, it's not his personal..."

"Oh? Why isn't it his personal?"

"His farm is called a 'collective farm'..."

Xu Yanliang's handlebars were tilted, and he almost fell off the car. He quickly held onto the handlebars to stabilize his body: "What do you think his farm is called?"

"The collective farm."

"It's really called that name?"

Yuan Fei probably understood why Mr. Xu Yuan was so sensitive to this name, and while riding his bicycle, he said, "That's the name. Because Liu Xiang and his brothers jointly invested in the shares. Everyone will share dividends at the end of the year. After the company is established, please invite Chairman Wang Give it a name, and give it this name."

"It's a shareholding system." Xu Yanliang was slightly disappointed.

"Yes, yes, it is a joint-stock system," Yuan Fei said, "This farm has the most land in Sanya, with tens of thousands of acres of land. It specially invited Tiandihui to provide technical support. Many people under Liu Xiang are there now. work in a farm, and live together. There are about a hundred households."

"I didn't expect him to become a big landlord." Xu Yanliang asked, "How is the business going?"

"It's very prosperous." Yuan Fei said, "Liu Laoxiang and his subordinates are all Chaoshan guys, with the most united hearts. They can do things. They also made a lot of money when they were pirates in the past. So after running the farm, it doesn't matter. Whether it’s building a house, buying machines or buying seeds, repairing water conservancy... They don’t hesitate to spend money. They also set up a lot of small processing factories—the more money comes in. The richer you are, the easier it is to make money. You can see a lot here Miserable immigrants, the Senate allocated land, helped to open up wasteland, and provided loans, free technical services, and tax exemption for five years! As a result, I still managed to get by. When I met someone Natural disasters and man-made disasters can't collect taxes, let alone relief. Otherwise, it will be even more difficult to go bankrupt!"

It seems that the small-scale peasant economy is difficult to mix anywhere.Xu Yanliang thought to himself.In the future, the development of Southeast Asian colonies will still be in the form of large farms.Models like Liu Xiang can also be used for reference.Thinking of this, he thought with regret that Liu Xiang was "refrigerated".Otherwise, it would be absolutely fine for him to be the leader of a colony.He asked again:
"Are there many state farms here?"

"There are several seats in Jinling District. They vary in size. Some specialize in growing rice, and some grow coconuts." Yuan Fei looked at the chief who was still marching north, thinking that the chief is not here to inspect industry and commerce?Interested in agriculture too?
Xu Yanliang originally wanted to say "go and see Liu Xiang's farm", but then he thought about this person's special status and was always feared by the Senate.The current situation of Nanyang Company is not suitable for having any direct contact with him.

He suddenly became suspicious. This smiling Secretary Yuan might be the secret agent of the Political Security Bureau.Even if he doesn't or can fully believe in Zhao Manxiong's "goodwill", there is no guarantee that he will not talk nonsense in front of other elders.

He thought for a while and said, "Help me find a private farm..."

"It depends on whether it is good or not..."

"Nonsense, I'm here for business and not for charity. Of course I'm looking forward to it."

"Okay!" Yuan Fei replied, "Then let's go to Hu Wumei's farm. It's not far ahead!" He kicked a few times and rushed to the front.

"Fifth sister Hu? Is she still a woman?" Xu Yanliang secretly shouted. I have never seen a female landowner these days.

A group of people passed a checkpoint of a security guard box and left Hexi District. Although Xinshijie Avenue was built to the bottom of Jinji Ridge in one go, the road surface became the level of a simple road after passing the checkpoint, and there were no street lights on both sides. The facilities and buildings are even missing. There are only large areas of farmland and small forests, with a small number of buildings dotted in between.It's a completely rural landscape.

The largest area here is paddy fields.Rice is grown.There are also sugarcane fields, hemp fields and coconut orchards.The Council of Agriculture has put in a lot of effort here.

But these fields have obvious advantages and disadvantages. Some fields can be seen to be well cared for, and the crops are growing gratifyingly;Often there is a completely different scene between a field ridge or a canal.

After getting out of the bayonet and riding for about 10 minutes, Yuan Fei led the way to a fork in the road.There are rows of windbreak forests on both sides of the fork.Most are tamarind trees, but also sapodilla trees.

The road condition of the fork road was even worse, and the bicycle was bouncing all the way up.Xu Yanliang has long been unaccustomed to such a bad road, but the "buses" allotted here are custom-made [-]-bar heavy-duty vehicles specially purchased by the post office back then. They are durable and can be carried, but they are not comfortable.

Fortunately, this section of the road is not too long, Xu Yanliang estimates that it is more than one kilometer.A wooden fence gate appeared not far ahead.Yuan Fei turned around and said, "Sir, Hu Wumei's farm is in front of you!"

Xu Yanliang's buttocks were numb, and he couldn't help but cheer up when he heard that "it's just ahead".

The farm is getting closer.I saw that the farm was well fortified. An earth barrier surrounded the farm with bamboo and wood fences. The gate was built solidly, with a gatehouse above it, and two protruding earth platforms on both sides.Before he got there, he heard the sound of rapid metal beating in the distance - it was a warning.

The law and order here is really bad.Xu Yanliang thought to himself.

The farm is heavily guarded, indicating that there is a greater pressure on public security here, and this pressure may not be achieved by a few thieves or a small group of robbers.The law and order in Sanya is far from as good as Tang Menglong said.

However, if there is really such a great pressure of internal security warfare, Tang Menglong should not be so arrogant, and let the four guards escort him to finish the job.If you really want to meet a big group of gangsters, they just deliver food...

Just as he was wondering, the convoy had already arrived at the wooden gate, and several dogs inside the gate barked wildly, and someone was looking down from the gate tower.Xu Yanliang noticed that the guard was holding a Nanyang-style rifle in his hand.Yuan Fei jumped out of the car and shouted, "Open the door quickly, our chief is looking for Wumei Hu!"

Xu Yanliang looked around and found ten round wooden signs on the lintel of the gate, which said "Baocheng Agricultural Reclamation Co., Ltd.", which had been exposed to the sun and rain, and the handwriting had faded.The open space outside the door is covered with ruts, obviously a lot of animal power is used here.

"Who is screaming!" A man's voice came from inside the door, "The master is not at home, he has gone to the ground! There is no master in the house, no guests!"

"I fuck you old X," Yuan Fei said bluntly, raising his throat, "I am Yuan Fei from the municipal government, and the chief is here! Chief! Do you know! Open the door quickly!"

"Don't lie to me!"

"Who lied to you! Open the door!"

A head poked out from the gate tower, looked at it and shrank back.After a while, someone inside shouted: "Quick! Open the door, open the door! You bunch of slackers!"

Two gates reinforced with iron bars and nails creaked open, and an old man came out from inside. He was wearing a straw hat, a "cloth net", linen beach pants, and rattan sandals. There is a nondescript cloth belt around the waist, and some objects are hung here and there.

Seeing Yuan Fei, the old man hurried forward to say hello, Yuan Fei said: "You're welcome, this is Chief Xu who came from Lingao, I want to see your farm! Ask Hu Wumei to come back quickly!"

When the old man heard that the elders were coming, he hurried to greet him: "Hu Sanqing, the villain, please greet the chief."

Xu Yanliang waved his hand and said, "There's no need to be polite. Is your owner here?"

"Unfortunately, the owner of the estate went to the plantation early in the morning. The young one will have someone call him back." Hu Sanqing said.

Xu Yanliang nodded and said, "If it takes too long to go back and forth, then there's no need..."

"Not far, not far, the plantation is only two miles away from here. The little one will send someone to look for it." After that, he called a child and asked him to go to the plantation to call the master back immediately, "Hurry up to the plantation and get the master back." Call back and say that the chief is coming! Run, hurry up!"

The child ran away quickly, Xu Yanliang said: "This child is quite black..."

"His mother is a slave from Nanyang, and she was born black." Hu Sanqing said, "First go inside to rest and drink a few sips of tea. It will take at least half an hour for the master to come back."
