Chapter 316
Work blocked
Qinglong City, Fengning County Autonomous Region.
After Cao Chunyuan returned to Qinglong City, she didn't even return home. She went directly to Fengning County to continue working on setting up a grassland ranch.
On the way back, she had already communicated with Yin Wanyi of Yinli Dairy, and exchanged 1,000 high-quality grassland red cows (cows) for the dairy product production line and the milk production formula.
In addition, Yin Wanyi also promised Cao Chunyuan to provide her with several experienced managers.
Now, Cao Chunyuan is waiting to contact Yin Wanyi again after the Chunyuan Ranch is built. At that time, he will bring the corresponding equipment and talents to Fengning County to hand over to Cao Chunyuan.
At 12:30 noon, Cao Chunyuan called the three responsible persons together and held an impromptu small meeting.
"Manager Hu, how is the establishment of the Little Tail Han Sheep Ranch in Yangmuzhazi Township going?"
Hu Zhenglong nodded and said: "Mr. Cao, everything is being carried out as planned. Workers are currently under construction. The breeding farm will not be completed until at least 4 minutes. After completion, it will take half a month to a month to ventilate the breeding greenhouse.
At least until the end of June.
I communicated with the local herdsmen, and they suggested that we build a professional breeding greenhouse and a simple straw shed at the same time. After building the straw shed, let the small-tailed Han sheep live in the straw shed temporarily.
The straw shed is relatively simple and can be completed in 10 days and a half. After the professional breeding greenhouse is built, we can just move the small-tailed Han sheep to the breeding greenhouse for grazing."
Hearing this, Cao Chunyuan nodded. Yang Guochun had mentioned this to her before, saying that building a professional breeding greenhouse requires a lot of effort.
Let her build a simple greenhouse first, put the livestock in it, and build the greenhouse while raising the livestock without any delay.
Cao Chunyuan wanted to tell Hu Zhenglong about this at that time, but was delayed by matters at the cannery, which delayed her time for another week.
"Then let's do it this way. Not only the small-tailed Han sheep pasture, but also the grassland red cattle pasture in Xiaobazi Township has also built a simple breeding greenhouse.
After you build the greenhouse, I will organize people to transport the prairie red cattle and small-tailed Han sheep.
Let’s try to complete these things early next month, and then start working on the establishment of Chunyuan Dairy. At that time, I will ask Mr. Yin from Yinli Dairy to visit and inspect, so don’t embarrass me.”
Hearing this, Hu Zhenglong, Guan Zhenzhen, and Zhang Genhua looked at each other.
Hu Zhenglong is the person in charge of the ranch project. The project he is responsible for is Chunyuan Ranch. He builds a simple ranch and builds a professional breeding farm at the same time.
This is a good thing for him, as it means that he will soon enter formal work status, and he will start faster than the other two.
Guan Zhenzhen is also happy. She has been busy discussing cooperative breeding with the herders in Lujiagou recently. At first, she wanted to show off in front of Cao Chunyuan and worked hard with passion.
However, after working for a long time, she found that the herdsmen really did not communicate well and there were some problems in communication. The key was that the herdsmen did not trust her.
She was clearly providing an opportunity for the herdsmen to make money, but the herdsmen actually suspected that she was a liar and wanted to defraud the herdsmen of their money.
She was very puzzled. She provided livestock and the herdsmen were only responsible for breeding. The herdsmen did not have to do anything except graze and feed the livestock.
Just like this, how could she defraud the herdsmen of their money? Isn’t this groundless worry?
But in order to prove herself to Cao Chunyuan, she kept silent, gritted her teeth and continued to visit Lujiagou Village, and now she has interviewed nearly a quarter of the villagers.
After talking about Chunyuan Ranch, Cao Chunyuan turned to look at Guan Zhenzhen and Zhang Genhua.
"How's it going with you two?"
Guan Zhenzhen and Zhang Genhua looked at each other, and it was Guan Zhenzhen who stood up again, "Mr. Cao, I have been chatting with the herdsmen in Lujiagou Village recently. Now a quarter of the herdsmen are willing to cooperate with us in breeding."
"oh?"
Cao Chunyuan raised her eyebrows slightly. You must know that in Dazhangzi Township, more than 90% of the villagers cooperate with her in planting. However, in Fengning County, only nearly a quarter or two of the people in Fengning County are willing to cooperate with her.
The gap between them is really too big.
She did not ask why the herdsmen did not all cooperate with her, but said with a smile: "Well done to Manager Guan. He is already very good at being able to negotiate like this with the herdsmen in Fengning County, a place where he is not familiar with.
Did you encounter any problems during the negotiation process with the herdsmen?"
"Huh~"
Guan Zhenzhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had learned about the cooperation between Cao Chunyuan and the people in Dazhangzi Village. She heard that basically all the villagers in Dazhangzi Village were involved in planting with Cao Chunyuan.
But on her side, the results were only a quarter of Cao Chunyuan's. She was still a little worried that Cao Chunyuan would dislike her for not doing things well. Unexpectedly, Cao Chunyuan not only did not pursue her problem, but also comforted her.
This made her even more determined to follow Cao Chunyuan!
"Mr. Cao, speaking of which, we did encounter some minor problems when communicating with the herdsmen. On the one hand, some elderly people basically cannot speak Mandarin, and I don't understand their minority languages at all.
In addition, the local herdsmen do not trust me very much, and some are even quite xenophobic. However, after my repeated visits, many local herdsmen have come to know me, and some kind-hearted herders have taken the initiative to help me communicate with those who cannot speak.
Communicate with the elderly in Mandarin.
In my opinion, there are two main reasons why cooperation with herdsmen is ineffective: 1. Communication issues, and 2. Trust issues.
I'm wondering if you can build a simple pasture as soon as possible and officially start farming. This way the local herdsmen will know that we really have a pasture here, and they will have more trust in us."
"Hmm~"
Cao Chunyuan nodded gently. What Guan Zhenzhen said was very real. These problems were not only encountered by Guan Zhenzhen, she also encountered the same problems when communicating with local herders.
Then, Cao Chunyuan turned to look at Zhang Genhua. Zhang Genhua hurriedly stood up and said nervously: "Mr. Cao, my progress there is similar to that of Manager Guan. Although the herdsmen in Shatuozi Village have a difficult life, they are not willing to follow us.
The main reason for cooperation is that they don’t really trust us.
I explained to them many times that we don’t want their money and we will give them money to help us breed, but only some young people are willing to believe me.
Those who are older are not easy to communicate with because of language problems, and coupled with distrust, it is even harder to communicate with them, so it is difficult for me to start the next step of my work."
The situation on Zhang Genhua's side was similar to that of Guan Zhenzhen, and the progress of the work was not much different. After some thought, Cao Chunyuan decided to cooperate with the herdsmen in a step-by-step manner.
