Chapter 530: A New Record in Food Production

Chapter 530: A New Record in Food Production

Ge Wenyao was wearing a blue suit and standing outside the door with his hands in his pockets, revealing an indescribable carefree attitude.

Guo Yang: “It’s a bit sudden.”

"You should be laughing secretly." Ge Wenyao said, "Now you can do whatever you want with Jahwa, and you can cut the fashion industry if you want."

Guo Yang shook his head: "I really didn't expect you to leave at this time."

"Haha, I will retire when I have achieved success. People will only remember the good things about me in the future."

Ge Wenyao smiled and said, "Jiahua is now a giant in the domestic beauty industry. L'Oreal China has also been surpassed by us this year."

Guo Yang said: "But internationally, Jahwa's influence is far less than that of giants such as L'Oreal."

Ge Wenyao: "That's your business. Jahwa's market value is almost 3000 billion. Jiahe has made a lot of money from this business. I can't manage it anymore. I'm going to retire now, old man."

"Isn't the market value only over 200 billion?"

"That was at the beginning of the year. Now it's the fourth quarter. This year's performance has once again exceeded expectations." Ge Wenyao said, "How is it? Unexpected, right?"

"If Jiahe hadn't been sucking blood from behind, Jahwa's market value could have gone up at least two more levels."

Guo Yang roughly remembers last year's data. The revenue was about 401 billion, but the net profit was about 99 billion, with a net profit margin of about 25%, making it very successful in the high-end market.

However, it was still Jiahe who was behind this.

Quanwang raised the price of raw materials, indirectly reducing Jahwa's gross profit. Even so, Jahwa is still in the first tier.

Guo Yang: "Then you should stay. If you leave, the Omni-King will be more effective at sucking the blood of Jiahua."

Ge Wenyao: "That's why I came here to build a good relationship with Mr. Yu, so that I can leave more soup for the investors."

Seeing his determination, Guo Yang said nothing more. Ge Wenyao's departure might not be a good thing for Jiahua, but it would definitely be a good thing for Jiahe.

With Ge Wenyao here, Guo Yang couldn't continue talking to Yu Qin about feed additives. He thought that Ge Wenyao might have been called by Yu Qin on purpose.

Yu Qin doesn't really want to get involved in European affairs.

It just so happened that Ge Wenyao wanted to resign again, fearing that after Jahwa was completely controlled by Jiahe, the Omni-King would intensify its bloodsucking, which would not be a good thing for investors and Jahwa.

So Yu Qin got involved with Ge Wenyao, and might even have thought about managing Jahwa so that he wouldn't have to wade into muddy waters abroad.

Everyone has their own aspirations, and Guo Yang originally didn't want to force it.

But when Yu Qin really proposed it, he still refused: "If you leave, who can take over as the King of All?"

For special reasons, this person must be someone you can completely trust.

You also have to be proficient in Quanwang's three major businesses: plant extracts, pesticides, animal nutrition, and now the expanded medical research.

Yu Qin: "The group company is full of talented people..."

Guo Yang interrupted: "This is a special period. No one is suitable except you. Besides, you already know it."

Yu Qin: “…”

Guo Yang: "But Ge Wenyao is leaving, and Jahwa needs a suitable person, so you can take on the responsibility as well."

"..." Yu Qin: "I can't handle it alone."

Guo Yang: "It's okay. Quanwang and Jiahua should focus on the domestic market first, and put the overseas market aside for now. It's going to get chaotic anyway."

"..."

Yu Qin thought to himself, you really don’t treat me as an outsider at all.

He thought a new round of foot-and-mouth disease was about to break out abroad.

However, Guo Yang was thinking about another epidemic. He tried to intervene in the epidemic in the original time and space, but he only had a vague understanding of this in his previous life.

There is nothing I can do now to advance the process.

If it comes, it will have an impact both at home and abroad. However, this time with the seed store, Guo Yang is confident that he can control the spread of the disease in the country as soon as possible.

In addition to the foreign feed additives, this was also the reason why he came this time.

Take a look at the technical reserves of Quanwang Biology.

If it is not enough, buy or acquire it quickly, or recruit more people.

Fortunately, he felt that the Omni-King should be able to take on the basic tasks. As long as the raw materials were good enough, there would be no problems that could not be solved.

After staying in Quanwang for two days, Guo Yang went to Jiahe Biotechnology again. Lan City is also the center of Jiahe Biotechnology in the north.

The largest Xanthoceras sorbifolia biodiesel refining plant in the north is located in Lanzhou and is a star enterprise in this city.

In the Loess Plateau where Lanzhou is located, Xanthoceras sorbifolia occupies most of the hilltops. The banks of the Yellow River in Gansu, Shaanxi, Ningxia, Shanxi and other provinces are also full of Xanthoceras sorbifolia and sea buckthorn.

The amount of sediment in the Yellow River has been significantly reduced.

Guo Yang also took the opportunity to see the construction in the middle section of Hongqi River. Well, he couldn't understand it, but he was greatly shocked.

However, along the way, we did see quite a few harvest scenes.

In particular, the large trucks transporting the Xanthoceras sorbifolia left a deep impression on him.

He casually asked Tang Weihua, who was accompanying him, "How much can you earn from planting one mu of Xanthoceras sorbifolia now?"

Tang Weihua said: "In the high-yield period, one acre of fruit trees can produce 1200 kilograms, and ordinary fruit is about 3 to 5 yuan per kilogram, which is mainly used as raw material for biodiesel.

High-quality fruit costs about 6 to 8 yuan per kilogram and is mainly used for edible oil processing or medicinal extraction.

So the income varies, with the lowest being more than 3000 yuan per mu and the highest being nearly yuan per mu.”

After a pause, Tang Weihua continued, "This is just the income from the fruit. If we include by-products such as Xanthoceras sorbifolia tea, the income will be even higher."

"Not bad." Guo Yang said, "So, being a farmer in the countryside with a few dozen acres of mountain land can also make you live a good life."

Tang Weihua said: "Apart from being tired, the income is higher than that of most migrant workers in the city. Now more and more young and middle-aged people are returning to their hometowns."

"This is a good thing." Guo Yang said with a smile: "There is so much land in the Northwest. If we don't attract more young people, it may be difficult to plant these trees."

"Haha, that's right. Once the Hongqi River is connected to water, the country's energy problem will be completely solved."

“It’s actually been resolved now.”

The country has long had the goal of planting 2 million mu of energy forests, and now this goal has almost been achieved.

It’s just that some of them have not yet entered the fruit-bearing period.

If these 200 million mu of land enter the high-yield period, the country's imported crude oil will be reduced by 60 to 70 percent.

Not to mention the Hongqi River.

By then, the income from planting Xanthoceras sorbifolia and Jatropha curcas will decrease, but overall, it is still a stable profit situation.

It just makes life hard for the oil-producing countries.

When passing through Dingxi, Guo Yang also went to check on the situation of potatoes.

After years of development, Dingxi's potato industry chain has become extremely mature. Trains loaded with hope for the fields and expectations of farmers cross the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and head to various markets across the country in a fixed, quantitative and large-scale manner.

The Tianshu series has also become a well-known variety, not only sold domestically but also exported to more than a dozen countries overseas.

However, compared with the dominance of Tianhe, a leading seed company in other fields, the potato seed potato industry is more of a flourishing field.

Tianshu just added some bricks and tiles, but this made Guo Yang feel more relaxed.

With the intervention of seed shops, the world's cutting-edge seed industry has already stepped into the science fiction era, which always feels a bit unreal.

The 'golden egg' in front of him made Guo Yang feel at ease.

The same sense of security, and another bumper harvest of grain.

...

Beijing, Ministry of Agriculture.

Luo Ruiyun, the current director of the Crop Production Department, was looking at a yield measurement report. "Is the data confirmed to be accurate?"

Xu Shize, director of the Grain Monitoring Division, was also a little hesitant, “This time we have integrated remote sensing, GIS, the Internet of Things and big data technologies to predict and correct yields, which should be more accurate.

However, the farmer records at the fixed observation points have not been reported to the grassroots level, and no cross-verification has been carried out. "Luo Ruiyun: "Speed ​​up the verification, and correct any data deviations as soon as possible."

Xu Shize: "Yes, Director."

Both of them were wondering how the grain production could maintain such a high growth rate.

This time it’s 10 billion tons!
If this continues, once the Hongqi River is open to navigation, the country will produce more than half of the world's food.

It’s unbelievable to think about it.

Jilin Province, Elm.

As the largest grain-producing county in the country, Yushu has always topped the grain production rankings.

Fixed grain production observation points have been set up in every township and village in the county, and data such as sown area, input-output, etc. are recorded regularly.

Field measurements are also conducted every year.

The sample plots for actual measurement are divided by satellite, and then the villagers' group and technical backbones of the cooperative are responsible for cutting and measuring the samples, making a preliminary summary, and random inspections and evaluations by institutions at all levels.

Zhang Guo, section chief of the Agriculture Bureau, and Wang Wu, a member of the investigation team, came to a village.

“Just pick a place and start testing.”

In a short while, the yield of corn per mu was estimated based on the yield of a small piece of land.

"3412 pounds?!"

Zhang Guo frowned: "Maybe the plot of land you chose is too good? Let's choose a more ordinary one."

The village group leader said: "Chief Zhang, you measured the output, how could it be false?"

Zhang Guo: "The yield is too high. In recent years, grain output has hit new highs. Not only do people doubt the authenticity of the data, but even the higher authorities are questioning whether the yield measurements are exaggerated."

Wang Wu, a clerk, also said: "Let's test it two more times. It won't hurt to do it a little more."

"alright."

After a while, looking at the calculated data, Zhang Guo and Wang Wu were dumbfounded.

3425 catties...3426 catties...

The output is getting higher and higher.

"Xiao Wang, what was the average output last year?" Zhang Guo asked a little confused.

Wang Wu: "More than 3100, probably an increase of eight or nine percentage points."

Zhang Guo: "Why don't we report less?"

After measuring samples one by one, the two men became numb and finally reported the data truthfully to the director, who was nominally the captain of the county-level investigation team.

After reading it, Director Chen Zhong was also stunned. He said seriously, "The superiors even specifically told us to be more rigorous this year. The data can't be wrong, right?"

Zhang Guo thought that he had been traveling to each town and village these days just to strive for truth.

“Unless statistics no longer exist.”

"Otherwise, these 430 million tons of grain would not be mixed with any water!"

...

Data from grassroots units began to be reported one by one. Although people were initially nervous, they finally found that more than one unit had increased production.

Confidence has been restored in major grain-producing counties.

"Unless statistics no longer exists" almost became a catchphrase for subordinates to reply to their superiors, and eventually it reached Luo Ruiyun's ears step by step.

The detailed basic data and the authenticity of the data verified by third-party audits gave Luo Ruiyun great confidence.

Then there is excitement and excitement!

In the face of the global food crisis, China has once again achieved a historic breakthrough, with national grain output exceeding 10 billion tons!

It accounts for 45% of the world's food production!

How important this is!
After Luo Ruiyun reported to his leader, and the leader reported to the top leader again, the Statistics Bureau and the Ministry of Agriculture held a press conference and announced the final national grain production data.

10.13 billion tons!

Following the steady growth in the previous two years, there was another sudden explosion. The growth rate of up to 8% excited the people and attracted the attention of the world.

Maybe the media reporters have become a little numb.

There is no questioning this data.

Instead, the spokesperson kept explaining at the press conference how the increase in grain production came about.

"The close planting technology has been fully implemented, crop rotation and fallow have restored the soil fertility, the cultivated land area has increased, seed technology has been used, and environmental governance has been carried out for three consecutive years..."

The reasons have been explained so many times that the media reporters who came here are already familiar with them.

What they care about is not this, but how China can maximize its interests in the context of the food crisis.

"Equality, mutual benefit, peaceful coexistence..."

Who the hell wants to hear you say this!

However, this was basically all that was heard at the press conference, but the continuous influx of grain traders into the country proved how powerful it is to control food.

Somewhere in a courtyard.

Several elderly people gathered together again.

"Where is Guo Yang now?"

"It's near Lanzhou. We first visited the Xanthoceras sorbifolia energy forest and Hongqi River, and then went to Dingxi. I heard that they were busy tasting the local wide noodles these two days."

"He has time to spare." The big leader pondered, "However, in this situation, we are not the ones who are in a hurry."

"Recently, more and more people have requested to visit and communicate with us."

"Now that we have food in our hands, countries that are short of food will look to us for support. I think we can collect some of the interest back."

"Interest?" The big boss snorted coldly: "Let's leave it at that for now."

"So where do we start?"

"Across the Channel."

"That's exactly what it should be."

“What if someone changes his mind repeatedly?”

“The West will not sit idly by.”

"Let's gain justice first. The rest is just a matter of time. At the latest, it will be after the Red Flag River is connected to the river..."

"It doesn't matter whether it's righteous or not." The big leader pondered, "You have to know that our goal is not just an island, but the global village!"

Those present were all people trusted by the top leader, and the "Global Village" plan had already been revealed to those present.

However, even if they knew it, they still hesitated at this moment.

Fighting against the entire...

"Do we have any allies?"

"No."

"It's too risky. Germany still had two allies back then."

"But we have enough food, and under Jiahe's manipulation, the global food crisis will only get worse. In this case, will we still lack allies?"

“Once the food crisis eases…”

"Don't consider this possibility in the short term." The big boss interrupted, "I had my doubts at first, but after three years of observation, you know that things are moving in the direction you envisioned..."
