Xianyuan Farm
Chapter 488: The Olive Branch of Yorkshire
I really didn't expect that the few people who came to visit in a Japanese car were actually Australian government personnel. They came to verify the identity information of the farmer. ∑
After looking at the identity information cards of the visitors, Gu Hongyu still couldn't figure out whether they were real or fake, but he thought that no one would come to his door so blatantly. He quickly led the group of people to the yard, arranged for them to sit on the sofa, and asked politely: "Excuse me, would you like to drink tea or coffee?"
"Coffee..."
"I heard that Huaxia Qingcha is very good. If you have it, you can give me a cup."
It seems that this group of people already knew Gu Hongyu's basic information before they came. Stiller's efficiency is quite high. He passed the farm information to the government department so quickly.
The coffee was left by Tony. Gu Hongyu didn't drink it and couldn't tell the good from the bad, but he thought that Tony's tea cabinet should not be too bad. Anyway, it was all instant coffee. Gu Hongyu didn't care much. He poured the coffee powder into the cup, mixed it with boiling water, and brought it up with a cup of sugar cubes.
Gu Hongyu was much more professional in making tea. The tea was Chinese green tea, but because of time constraints, he poured boiling water into a porcelain cup and covered it with a lid. In Gu Hongyu's opinion, a cup of tea was better than any other drink.
The visitor was a middle-aged white man, another capable woman with a chestnut appearance who looked to be in her twenties, and another chestnut-looking man, but this man had just gotten out of the driver's seat of a car, and Gu Hongyu guessed that he was just a driver.
Seeing Gu Hongyu's observation, the middle-aged white man smiled and took a sip of tea: "Chinese tea is indeed well-deserved. Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your warm hospitality."
"I am Hendry Quick from the Yorkland Farm Management Bureau under Queensland. The beautiful lady next to me is Alia Mirida, and the other handsome guy is Virgil. This visit is to confirm the taxpayers of this farm. In addition, if you don't mind, can you talk to us about the planning and development of the farm here?"
I didn't expect that Australian civil servants are very dedicated. Before coming to Australia, Gu Hongyu heard others say that people here are all lazy people. Why is it completely different from what he saw and heard today?
Here, Gu Hongyu misunderstood. Australia is a federal government. It has a vast land and a sparse population, and is very rich in material resources. The welfare benefits of residents are considered very generous in the world. Even if ordinary citizens do not have normal jobs, they can receive a considerable amount of relief from the government.
However, not everyone in Australia can enjoy generous treatment. Many indigenous people in Australia still suffer from serious discrimination and exploitation. Otherwise, there would not be some employees who are unwilling to leave in Gu Hongyu's farm.
For those Australian citizens who are in the upper aristocratic circles of the country, they enjoy the benefits of various welfare benefits given to them by Australia, and they lead the cutting-edge fields of all walks of life in Australia. However, there are more ordinary people who still live at the bottom of society, and capitalism also has beggars.
Looking at the smiling white man in front of him, Gu Hongyu also greeted him with a smile: "Welcome Mr. Hendry and the beautiful Ms. Amy Ai to visit. To be honest, I have just taken over this farm and am still in a state of slowly getting familiar with it. Can you give me some advice when you come here?"
Australia is a country with a three-level government agency, a national parliament, and a state parliament. Below are the county towns, and these people are staff members of the Yorkland County Farm Office. Needless to say, this farm also belongs to Yorkland County.
At present, Gu Hongyu and these government workers are not familiar with each other to a certain extent. When he heard them asking about the development plan of the farm, Gu Hongyu certainly would not tell them all his ideas.
"Haha, Boss Gu, you Chinese are the best at doing business. Some time ago, I followed the Queensland Agriculture Department to China to promote the farm here. I didn't expect that this farm originally belonging to the United States was transferred to your name. It seems that I still have a lot of fate with the Chinese!" Hendry was still smiling.
After talking about this and that, Amy Ai suddenly said: "Boss Gu, you want to get this farm with an excellent location. You must have some ideas and purposes. In any case, as long as it is beneficial to the development of the farm and serves as an example for our county, our county will fully cooperate with Boss Gu."
He actually had such a purpose. Looking at the surrounding grasslands that were still barren and ownerless, Gu Hongyu suddenly understood the intention of the county.
After walking around China, it seems that their promotion meeting did not achieve much success. Chinese people are very conservative in one aspect, that is, they dare not easily step into many fields that they have not set foot in. Queensland is indeed a hot spot for investment, but the situation in Yorkshire is not the case. The geographical location here is good, but the land price is much higher than other places.
Many wealthy businessmen in China buy farms in Australia. Their general purpose is to grow agricultural products here and then return to China for resale. As long as the land is fertile and the terrain is not complicated, the geographical location requirements are not high. This is also the reason why the grasslands in Yorkshire are not optimistic.
Originally, the investment of the Hall family in the United States gave the Yorkshire government a bright prospect. However, although the member of the Hall family was full of passion, his heart was high and his life was thin. He invested a lot in a short time and got little effect, and almost became a laughing stock of the whole family.
Now that the Hall family has changed hands on the farm, the Yorkland County government officials have seen hope and rushed over. While inquiring about Gu Hongyu's positioning of the farm, they are also thinking of all kinds of help and support so that Yorkland County The ownerless pastures within the property were successfully sold.
They were also anxious. Gu Hongyu got too much information from this conversation. With such a foundation, the next thing would be much easier to handle.
Thinking of this, Gu Hongyu felt extremely happy: "Mr. Hendry, Ms. Amy, since you came here with a frank heart, I won't hide it. Of course I came to Australia to buy property with a sincere heart." After a lot of hard work, this farm looks pretty good, and I plan to continue to breed Australian Wagyu and Angus black cattle, and when the place settles down, I will plant more high-end crops.”
"This..., old boss, there are many Chinese people in other towns who run farms the same way as you do now, but the cost of doing this here is obviously much higher. If similar products compete, can you win?" Heng De Li didn't have any evil intentions. He was really thinking about Yorkland County and wanted to make Gu Hongyu's farm a benchmark and model for the county.
