Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 1460 Additional Investments
"The province and the city are very supportive of us. The allocated land is the best paddy field. It doesn't take us any effort at all, it can be directly used to grow rice." Wu Zihao told Zhao Lei as he walked, "But...it's so good The rice fields also made our land acquisition work encounter some difficulties. After all, no one is willing to give up such a good rice field, and many grain farmers demand very high compensation.”

Liu Mingzhao continued with a smile: "Thanks to your generosity, Old Zhao, for spending such a large sum of money, we were able to complete the land acquisition in time and plant the fairy gourd rice as soon as possible."

Zhao Lei didn't care about this, and nodded indifferently: "As long as you can get the land as soon as possible, spending more money is nothing, and the other thing is not to let the farmers suffer. After all, this is something that Mr. Liu cares about personally. The city also attaches great importance to it, if there is any conflict between the land acquisition and the local farmers, everyone will lose face."

Liu Mingzhao said seriously: "Don't worry, all the land acquisition work is carried out under the supervision of the city, and there is no coercion at all."

Wu Zihao said with a smile: "The land acquisition fee we pay is more than five times the average level. Not only are there subsidies every year, but even huge compensation for the expropriation of farmers' houses and private plots. Farmers who lost their land can also go to the seed base Come to work, this condition can't be better!"

Liu Mingzhao also agreed: "You didn't see the situation when we expropriated the land. The farmers came to sign the contract on their own initiative. Many people beat their chests because their land was just outside the scope of land expropriation, and asked us to expropriate the land. Yes. Even the leaders of the city say that if every company acquires land like ours, they can sit back and relax."

Zhao Lei said seriously: "This is the best. When the fairy gourd rice seeds occupy the market, the profits will be amazing. We don't want to ruin our reputation just to compete with the farmers for this little profit."

Both Liu Mingzhao and Wu Zihao nodded in agreement, expressing their agreement with Zhao Lei's statement.After all, the two have seen the big world, and their family education has always been very good, so they really can't do things like compete with farmers for profit.

The three of them checked the rice fields while talking. Just like Wu Zihao said, these are the best rice fields.Not only is the land fertile, but it is also very close to the water source, so there is no need to worry about watering even in severe drought.Zhao Lei nodded while looking at it. The seed base can have such good land, and the support from the city is indeed very strong.

Wu Zihao told Zhao Lei: "The rice field is just like this. Every day, workers will come to take care of it carefully to observe the growth and whether there are any diseases and insect pests. Basically, there is no need to worry."

Zhao Lei also nodded in agreement when he heard the words. The fairy gourd rice grows vigorously, and generally does not encounter any diseases and insect pests.There is also the careful care of the workers who are veteran food farmers, so there is really no need to worry too much.

So Zhao Lei glanced at the lush rice fields, nodded to his friend and said, "Go and see other facilities in the seed base!"

The seed base is not just as simple as a rice field, but also a warehouse specially used to store seeds, as well as a place for staff to work and rest.

In addition, in order to ensure that the rice seeds do not fall into the hands of people with ulterior motives, security measures are also very important.In order to ensure the safety of the seed base, Zhao Lei has asked Liu Hai, the director of the company's security department, to contact more old comrades in arms and hire trustworthy people to be responsible for the safety of the seed base.

However, under the premise that the civil defense is in place, of course the technical defense work cannot be missing.Zhao Lei plans to build a fence around the entire seed base, and at the same time be equipped with various monitoring and security systems, which must be foolproof.

However, when Zhao Lei talked about other facilities, both Liu Mingzhao and Wu Zihao showed embarrassment.

Zhao Lei immediately noticed the change in his friend, and immediately frowned and said, "What's wrong, is there a problem?"

"There is indeed a problem." Wu Zihao said with some embarrassment: "In order to complete the land acquisition work as soon as possible, the compensation paid was very high. According to your request, the seed warehouse and security system must be done according to the highest standards. A little nervous."

Knowing that it was only a matter of funds, Zhao Lei was not so nervous, and asked the two of them lightly, "How far is it?"

Wu Zihao frowned and said, "Because the area of ​​the seed base is relatively large, it needs a lot of funds. We made a preliminary estimate, and at least... 7000 million or so will be needed."

Liu Mingzhao rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said, "So Zihao and I waited for you to come back, and wanted to discuss the investment ratio of this money. Logically speaking, we should pay for this money, but you know, although we have spent the past two years I made a lot of money with you, but tens of millions is still a bit too much for us."

Wu Zihao was also a little embarrassed and said: "Ming Zhao is right, so we plan to borrow some money from you first, at the highest interest rate, and return it to you as soon as we have money."

"Bah!" Zhao Lei scoffed at the proposal of the two, and simply waved his hand: "I will invest another [-] million to build the facilities of the seed base, and the shareholding ratio of the three of us will remain unchanged."

Liu Mingzhao quickly shook his head and said, "That's not acceptable. You paid for the first investment. This time it must not be like this!"

Wu Zihao also said: "Ming Zhao is right, you can't pay the money alone, we have already taken advantage of you, we can't do this again."

"Don't be polite to me." Zhao Lei said sincerely: "It's rare for the three of us to talk like this. Although we are doing business together, friendship is more important. You also know my situation. For me, take this It's really no big deal to get a sum of money, so don't argue with me!"

However, even after Zhao Lei said so, Liu Mingzhao still shook his head and said, "This is not very good, we really..."

Zhao Lei said flatly: "Stop talking nonsense, it's such a happy decision. I will transfer the money to the seed company's account later."

Seeing that Liu Mingzhao and Wu Zihao were still hesitant, Zhao Lei deliberately said: "But I'll put the ugly words up front. You all know that I came from the shopkeeper. There is no problem with additional investment. I will completely let go of the daily management of the company. Worry more!"

In fact, neither Liu Mingzhao nor Wu Zihao are the kind of small-minded people. Now that Zhao Lei has already talked about this point, the two no longer refuse. After looking at each other, Liu Mingzhao nodded and said: "Yes, what we say will become It's hypocritical, the three of us will work together to make sure the seed company is run!"

Zhao Lei smiled and said, "Yes, let's work together to run the seed company well!"

However, at this moment, Wu Zihao asked Zhao Lei with a sad face, "Old Zhao, when will your Japanese confidante come to our company?"
