The happy life of the great landowner

Chapter 71 The pie in the sky

Not long after, the waiter entered the box with the food and wine.

After the waiter left, Wu Sheng picked up a bottle of red wine, filled it up for everyone on the table, and said to Professor Zhao, "Come on, everyone, let's respect Professor Zhao first."

Professor Zhao was not too polite. Although he didn't like this occasion, after all, he personally proposed it today, so he also cooperatively raised his glass and had a drink with everyone.

Afterwards, Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan also toasted to Professor Zhao successively, but Professor Zhao dealt with it very 'casually', and even skipped clinking glasses with them, which made them a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Professor Zhao was able to meet and eat with them. This is already a great improvement, and it is much better than being kicked out of the house or the school office by Professor Zhao in the past!

After drinking for three rounds and eating five flavors, before Qin Hancheng could think about how to bring up wild vegetables, Professor Zhao had already spoken first.

I only heard Professor Zhao say: "Boss Qin and Boss Hu, I am very clear about the purpose of your seeking me. To be honest, I don't want to help you."

Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan looked at each other, and there was no great disappointment on their faces. After all, it was not the first time that they were rejected by Professor Zhao, so they didn't care if it was counted this time.

"Actually, you all know very well why I didn't help you." When Professor Zhao said this, his tone was a little cold and his face was a little ugly.

Chen Ye sat aside and listened silently. He was also curious why Professor Zhao hated Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan so much. If he hated business people, Professor Zhao's attitude towards Wu Sheng was much better. Moreover, Qin and Hu usually come to visit, and it is not as serious as driving them out with a broom.

Just when Chen Ye was puzzled, Qin Hancheng said hey, then stood up, bowed deeply to Professor Zhao, and said with apology on his face: "Professor Zhao, we were the ones at the beginning. The two of us were deceived by lard and made money that we shouldn't have earned, so the two of us have decided not to do that business anymore."

When Hu Zhouquan heard Qin Hancheng's statement, he was also unwilling to be reconciled to others, so he immediately stood up and bowed to Professor Zhao: "Professor Zhao, Lao Qin and I also realized our mistake at the beginning. We have really changed our minds, and all our previous food has been destroyed, and it is definitely not sold outside."

Professor Zhao snorted coldly, and then looked at Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan indifferently: "I can help you, but the cultivation of wild vegetables cannot be entrusted to you. If you do it, I think we will be the ones who suffer in the end." these people."

As soon as Qin Hancheng heard that there was a turning point in the matter, he immediately expressed his opinion: "Professor Zhao, you can just ask for any conditions. We don't have to ask you to cultivate the seeds this time, as long as we can receive wild vegetables and cultivate wild vegetables. We can outsource it to someone else.”

When Professor Zhao heard this, he was still not in a good mood: "Other people? I am most afraid of those other people you talk about. For those things that happened back then, you yourself pushed the responsibility completely away, but put Professor Chen in a trap." It's too bad, if it wasn't for your help to clear up Professor Chen's grievances, publicly apologize in the newspaper, and compensate him for the loss of his reputation, I would definitely not come out to see you today."

Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan also secretly groaned in their hearts, but who blamed them for being deceived by lard at the beginning, and finally made such an unforgivable mistake, completely offending intellectuals like Professor Zhao, so that they Gaoxin paid a lot of money to ask them for help, but they ignored them, and Professor Zhao simply took the students to hide in a place like Bairuo Village, seeing that he couldn't drive them away with a broom.

"I don't want to say too much. After all, according to your thinking, those things are nothing more than scumbags. If I keep holding on to them, you will probably scold me in your heart." Professor Zhao said to Chen Ye. After pouring a glass of wine, he said, "The reason why I invited you out this time is because of Xiao Chen's face. If it wasn't for him, I would never have paid any attention to you."

Upon hearing this, Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan hurriedly toasted Chen Ye: "Brother Chen, thank you so much, the two of us have nothing to repay, so here is a toast to you."

Although Chen Ye was confused when he heard it, he was unambiguous when drinking, and he drank a glass of wine in one gulp.

After drinking a glass of red wine, Professor Zhao said leisurely, "Xiao Chen is also engaged in agriculture, and the soil in Bairuo Village is very suitable for growing wild vegetables."

Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan were not fools, and they immediately recognized the meaning of Professor Zhao's words: "Professor Zhao, what do you mean?"

Now that the words have been pointed out, Professor Zhao did not shy away from it, and said frankly: "I will live in Bairuo Village in the future. Firstly, I will lead students to study, and secondly, Bairuo Village will become rich. As for the wild vegetables you want to grow, There are not many other things in Bairuo Village, the land is still granted, and the soil quality is more suitable."

After Chen Ye heard it, his heart was pounding. He didn't expect such a big turning point. This is equivalent to Professor Zhao giving a duck that can lay golden eggs directly to Bai Ruocun. It means that I want to let myself be the project leader!

Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan hesitated for a while, but thinking that Chen Ye not only knew Zhang Haiming and Wu Sheng, but also knew Song Yubing from Xingyang City, there must be something extraordinary, otherwise these three people would not Being so friendly with him, especially Song Yubing, not to mention Xingyang City, even the entire provincial capital, there are countless people who want to get acquainted with her.

And Chen Ye has Song Yubing's bronzing business card, which proves that he is not low in front of Song Yubing!

After figuring this joint out, Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan exchanged glances: "Since this is the case, then Brother Chen needs to take care of the cell and take care of it for us."

Although Chen Ye was excited, he was not ignorant of people who know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth. Although Bairuo Village has a lot of land, it costs a lot to grow wild vegetables. Even if he is willing to grow wild vegetables, the current capital is not enough. : "Brothers, you praise me too much. Although I have the heart, my ability is not enough."

Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan are such experienced missions, they laughed out loud when they heard Chen Ye's words.

Seeing that there was a solution to the matter, Hu Zhouquan stood up and walked to Chen Ye's side: "Brother, don't be afraid, since we asked you to help us plant, we will naturally help you with so many things. For example, the construction of greenhouses, the construction of reservoirs, etc., I will pay to solve these problems, and all you have to do is to supply us with supplies when the time comes."

"Then I took advantage of it too much." Chen Ye's heart jumped even more when he heard Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan's words. This kind of thing is a bit ugly, and it is the same as the pie in the sky.

Seeing that Chen Ye didn't believe him, Qin Hancheng handed over another list to Chen Ye in order to show his sincerity.

Chen Ye opened the list and saw the Chinese and English names of the wild vegetables, followed by the unit price.

After seeing the standard price above, Chen Ye was not calm anymore. This price is too high, far more than five to ten times the price in the city. Some wild vegetables that don’t know their appearance are even expensive scary!

Seeing Chen Ye's shocked appearance, Hu Zhouquan explained with a smile: "Brother Chen, now you know that these wild vegetables can be used not only for food, but also for medicine. They sell very well in Japan and Korea, but ordinary The planting method does not reflect their nutritional value at all, so the price naturally cannot be sold, so we have to ask Professor Zhao to find a way. If these problems can be solved, then after the market stabilizes, our cooperation with Bairuo Village will be bigger”

"Bigger!" Fortunately, Chen Ye concealed it better. Others would say something in shock. If the order quantity and the purchase price are based on the above, then when the delivery is made, Bai Ruocun will deduct the cost If so, at least a profit of more than 150 million!

Qin Hancheng said confidently: "Of course, Lao Hu and I are both businessmen. If the business is not profitable, we will not try it."

"Eat the vegetables, I'm too busy talking," Hu Zhouquan said, wanting to toast Professor Zhao.

Fortunately, Professor Zhao had a drink with them this time, but both Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhou understood that it was for Chen Ye's sake, but it also made them even more curious. What is it that makes Professor Zhao value him so much?
After eating, Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan wanted to drive Professor Zhao and Chen Ye back to the village, but Professor Zhao refused.

Wu Sheng saw that the scene was a little stiff, so he said haha, and came over: "Old Qin, Lao Hu, you all drank a lot, so don't drive. I didn't drink much just now, so let me see Chen Ye off." Go back with Professor Zhao."

"Well, that's fine, then let's go back to Xingyang City first, and we'll come back tomorrow." Hu Zhouquan glanced at Wu Sheng gratefully, then got into the car with Qin Hancheng, and told the driver to drive away.

After they left, Chen Ye asked Professor Zhao suspiciously: "Professor Zhao, what did you mean when you said they killed Professor Chen?"

Professor Zhao sighed deeply, and said, "Let's get in the car first, and talk while getting in the car."

"En." Chen Ye nodded, and then the three of them got into the car together.

Not long after getting in the car, Professor Zhao said: "Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan used to be two big grain merchants in our province. The scale of their companies not only radiated our province, but also reached half of the south."

Chen Ye listened quietly. He did not expect Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan to be so prosperous in the past. After all, it is already very difficult to cover the entire province, let alone half of the south. Funds, but also enough contacts.

"It happened seven years ago when my classmate, Professor Chen, published a paper about a new type of rice that was not only high yielding, but also resistant to drought, disease and pests, and not only in theory, but he had already done it in practice. The soil is cultivated." When Professor Zhao said here, a bitterness suddenly appeared on his face, and then he sighed and continued: "My old classmate is a person who likes to show off. When I heard that Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan I came here because of the reputation, so I agreed to be their consultant, but that’s where things go wrong.”

"What's the matter!" Chen Ye faintly felt that there was something wrong.

"At that time, the rice in my old classmate's experimental field was high-yield, but long-term consumption was not very good for the human body, so after he discovered this, he decided to burn the rice, and he didn't expect to leave a batch of seeds. As a result, Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan took it to several provinces in the south to plant it, and sold it in large quantities under the name of my classmate, but since it is a problematic matter, it will definitely be comfortable to penetrate.” When he said this, Professor Zhao didn’t Go on.

However, Chen Ye understood that what Qin Hancheng and Hu Zhouquan meant when they said they were deceived by lard, it is no wonder that they have been reduced from a large grain merchant to such a field in the past few years.
