However, they clearly could not do so. They had to consider the fertility of the land. Otherwise, if they planted it a few times a year, the land would be completely useless.
Therefore, these towns had to take turns. They had to divide the 15 towns into three batches to ensure that those lands had at least three months to recuperate.
For example, if it was the first batch of land, the next two batches would recuperate. They would only continue planting in the fourth batch.
Qin Lin and the other two felt that there was nothing wrong with Shen Li’s plan, so they asked Shen Li to send a copy of the information to the county.
Next was the problem of signing contracts with the various towns.
They were taking the new agricultural cooperative promotion model of ‘enterprise + cooperative + household’.
As farmers, business was their laboratory.
Youcheng County, on the other hand, acted as a middleman, ensuring the interests of both sides. Businesses and farmers were co-operative members.
Therefore, Youcheng County had to participate in the signing of the contract next.
When the county received the information, Sun Xian immediately found Chen Li and handed him the information. “Take a look at the information that has just been sent over from Qinglin Laboratory.”
Chen Li took the information and looked happy when he saw the content. “Qinglin Laboratory has made a plan so quickly?”
Sun Xian nodded. “The first towns they chose include Xianmei and Xitai.”
Chen Li smiled and said, “These are the richest and poorest townships. However, it’s good that Xitai Town can plant them in the first batch, especially in a village like Xiajia Village. The village is quite poor...”
Sun Xian nodded.
Although this village was not a poor village according to the country’s definition, it was indeed a burden under Youcheng County.
It was not that the county had not carried out support projects for the village. Although the projects were effective, they did not overall allow the village to keep up with the team.
Over the past month, for the sake of a village like Xiajia Village, they had discussed it with Qinglin Laboratory.
Moreover, this was indeed an opportunity to help these villages become rich.
Their county had calculated that the profits of planting normal watermelons were about 3,500 yuan per acre. 10 acres was about 35,000 yuan. This was the profits during the growth of normal watermelons.
If it was Qinglin Watermelon, the production time would be shortened, the labor cost would be reduced, and the fertilizer and pesticide cost would be reduced...
With this reduction, the profits of an acre would increase.
This was the profits of ordinary watermelons. If it was Qinglin Watermelons, according to the 20% profits given by Qinglin Laboratory, one acre of land could reach a profit of more than 9,000 yuan.
Most importantly, there was no seasonal restriction on Qinglin Watermelons. They could be planted any season. Even if the 15 towns in Youcheng County took turns planting them, one place would guarantee at least three months of recuperation. With some fertilizer and soil, they could be planted three times a year.
That five acres of land could earn 135,000 yuan a year, and 10 acres could earn them 270,000 yuan a year.
And the other eight to nine months, they could totally do something else to make money.
As long as they were more diligent, every family could buy a small car in a year. At that time, the people living in the county city would be envious of them and wish they could move their household register back to the countryside and divide the fields to plant watermelons, right?
This time, with the help of Qinglin Laboratory to promote Qinglin Watermelon, it shouldn’t be impossible for them to eat it, right?
With that in mind, Sun Xian called over a middle-aged man and handed him the information sent by Qinglin Laboratory. “Chief Liu, this is the information sent back by Qinglin Laboratory. Your department specially followed up on the contract for the promotion of Qinglin Watermelon.”
“Once you’re in Qinglin Laboratory, you must follow the person who signed the contract wherever he goes. Moreover, take the initiative to explain the contents of this cooperation to those villagers. Don’t cause any trouble.”
“Our county begged him to do this. Don’t let the county lose face.”
“Okay, Sun Xian.” Chief Liu nodded and immediately went out to gather everyone in his department to issue orders.
He even personally went to Qinglin Laboratory.
This was a project that both Qinglin Laboratory and the county wanted to promote. The cooperation in between was also progressing quickly. Qin Lin had already gotten Senior Brother Chu to draw up the relevant contracts at the laboratory.
Therefore, in less than a day, Shen Li sent someone to the first batch of towns chosen by Chief Kong to sign the contract for cooperative production.
Chief Liu was personally in charge of Xitai Town. After all, this town was relatively poor. A few villages were at the bottom of the economic ranking in Youcheng County.
There were naturally some reasons why these villages were poor. It would take more effort to explain such cooperation.
There was only one village with many old stubborn people. When other places received the news, they could not wait for Qinglin Laboratory to sign the contract quickly. These old stubborn people actually had some old ideas and said that the land here could not be touched. If the land over there was moved, it would affect the feng shui and they would resist signing this contract.
The key was that these old die-hards were senior in the village and old. It was really troublesome.
Although it was a modern era, such people were actually available in towns all over the country, but they could not be ignored. Perhaps when this generation’s era passed, some old troubles could be reduced.
Fortunately, the young people in this village were not stupid. If the feng shui was really good, would their village be so poor? Although it took a lot of effort, the contract was finally signed. 1
