Xu Yang came to the mountain and found that Xu Bing was squatting in the field with a group of people and didn't know what they were doing.
Everyone held either a pair of chopsticks or gloves in their hands. Xu Yang asked doubtfully.
"Ayan, why are you here? Your new variety of vegetables is growing well, but we don't know why. We found that there are a lot of bugs, especially this kind of cabbage caterpillar, which is much fatter than ordinary cabbage caterpillars.
.
And you stipulated that we are not allowed to use pesticides, so I took people to the fields to catch bugs and planned to take them back to feed the chickens and ducks."
Xu Bingzheng was half sad and half happy when he talked about the situation in the fields. What was sad was that there were so many bugs, which harmed the growth of vegetables. But he was happy that there were bugs to feed the chickens and ducks.
It was really a wave of ups and downs. Before the people searching for the manpower stationed on the mountain thought, the vegetables in the field were infested with insects again.
Xu Yang knew that this was because the high nutrition of the vegetables attracted insects, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"Catch bugs and feed them to chickens and ducks? Is it possible to raise chickens and ducks directly in the ground?" Xu Yang suddenly had this idea. He immediately told Xu Bingzheng this idea.
"Raising chickens and ducks in the ground? This is a good idea. But in this way, the workers suddenly have less food sources to feed the chickens and ducks, and I'm afraid they will feel a little grudge."
Xu Bingzheng thought for a moment and frowned.
"Uncle Azheng, I have an idea. I will provide you with new varieties of chickens, ducks and other poultry babies at half price. You can raise them directly in the fields, but you must hand over the raised chickens and ducks to me for sale.
And according to the old rules, you cannot use purchased feed to feed chickens. After the vegetables are harvested, you can also feed them with rotten vegetable leaves from the field. Of course, you cannot delay the work in the field."
Xu Yang pondered for a while and came up with a way to get the best of both worlds. This would not only solve the problem of pests, but also improve the enthusiasm of the employees.
Although my income may have decreased, I have always wanted to increase the income of the villagers. Isn't this a good test point?
"Ayan, you even have new varieties of poultry? And you provide them to us at half price to raise them in the fields?"
After hearing Xu Yang's words, Xu Bingzheng's tone trembled.
Although Xu Yang came back not long ago, he created miracles again and again. Vegetables, aquatic products, etc. were launched one after another. Even Xu Liming, the owner of Wenshui Building, was very optimistic about him.
All these things were seen by the villagers. Now that Xu Yang decided to provide them with poultry first, Xu Bingzheng was naturally very excited.
"Yes, Uncle Azheng, I want to develop new agricultural and sideline industries. Vegetable seeds, fish and animal larvae must all be of high quality. Management must also be based on ensuring quality, and absolutely eliminate behaviors such as forcing seedlings to encourage growth! Because
That will only harm the interests of consumers."
Xu Yang said seriously.
"Ayang, I don't understand any big principles, but everything you do is for the benefit of everyone. I will definitely do whatever you ask me to do in the future."
Xu Bingzheng assured Xu Yang.
After dinner, the first thing Xu Yang did was to summon all the villagers who helped him home to discuss raising poultry in the vegetable field.
"Uncles, Uncle Azheng must have mentioned it to you, so let me explain it briefly.
First of all, the quality must be guaranteed, and the poultry must not be fed hormones or other things, otherwise I will not accept it.
After these poultry are raised, you can only provide them to me for sale together, and you cannot resell the young ones to others, because this is my business secret."
Xu Yang then made some important requests.
"Ayan, don't worry. You put all the money in our pockets. If we do something unscrupulous again, we will be worse than pigs and dogs. If anyone does something to harm you, I will not be the first one."
Let him go." Xu Bingzheng was the first to make a promise.
"Ah Zheng is right. Anyone who dares to do anything that feels sorry for Ah Yang will feel sorry for everyone."
Everyone exchanged words and made guarantees one after another.
The next step was simple. Xu Yang printed out some rules on the computer, then made a few copies and distributed them to everyone.
Because the terms were very simple, there was no loss for the villagers. So after reading it, everyone signed their names and pressed their fingerprints.
"Okay, it's not too early today. Let's go home and have a rest early. The chicken and duck cubs will be delivered tomorrow, so everyone will be busy from now on."
After finishing all the follow-up tasks, Xu Yang sent everyone home.
"Ayan, have you slept?"
As soon as Xu Yang lay down, he remembered the old voice of the old branch secretary downstairs.
"Secretary, it's so late. Do you want to see me for anything?"
Xu Yang went downstairs, hurriedly invited the old branch secretary in, and poured him a glass of honey water.
"A Yang, I just met Azheng and his friends on the road. They said that you provided some new breeds of chickens and ducks for them to breed. I would like to ask if you can provide some to others?"
The old branch secretary looked at Xu Yang and asked.
"Old party secretary, did other villagers ask you to be this lobbyist?"
Xu Yang knew that the old party secretary was a good old man, so maybe someone would be jealous of him.
"You also know that my products are of high quality. Once too many people buy them, various problems will arise, including quality problems. I am afraid that someone will pass them off as inferior products.
Also, I’m afraid that someone will not be able to bear the temptation and sell the cubs to others, which will cause great harm to the interests of not only me but also other villagers.”
Xu Yang may be able to accept the provision of new poultry for the helpers to raise. But with more people, there will naturally be more problems. Once problems really arise, will all the neighbors really be sued to the court?
Therefore, Xu Yang was in a dilemma. He didn't want the old party secretary to be disappointed, but he also didn't want to suffer losses himself.
"I also know that you are in trouble, but once those people who work for you become rich, I'm afraid other people will have ideas. Everyone worships their ancestors in the same ancestral hall. If it is really unpleasant, then I will
I’m really too embarrassed to go to the ancestral hall.”
The old branch secretary smiled bitterly.
Xu Yang knew that the old party secretary had always wanted the villagers to become rich so that he could make up for the wrong decisions he had made in the past few years, but he had to ensure the quality first, otherwise it would destroy the hard work he had built.
"In this way, Ayan, I will come forward as a guarantee and be responsible for supervising the farmers. Once someone breaks the rules, I will come forward to solve the problem without hurting the feelings of you and the villagers. What do you think?"
The old party secretary thought of a way.
"Since the old party secretary has given his full support, I won't say much more. There will be a meeting at the village committee tomorrow to discuss specific matters."
When the conversation came to this point, Xu Yang couldn't refuse, so he agreed.
"Haha, I knew Ayang was soft-hearted. Okay, you rest, we will meet at the village committee tomorrow!"
Seeing that the matter was resolved, the old party secretary finally felt relieved.
The next morning, when Xu Yang came to the village committee, a large number of people had already gathered in the village committee.
Seeing Xu Yang arriving, everyone greeted him one after another. In their eyes, Xu Yang has now become the God of Wealth.
"A Yang, come and say a few words to everyone!" The old party secretary waved to Xu Yang happily.
"Old party secretary, I thought about it last night and felt that it is not a good idea for everyone to raise poultry, as it will easily cause competition. I have other animals that I recommend everyone to raise, and that is raising sheep and rabbits."
Xu Yang expressed what he had been thinking about last night.
"Why raise sheep and rabbits? Ah Yang, we don't have much experience in this area!" the old party secretary asked puzzledly.
"I have two options for you to choose from. One is to provide you with sheep and rabbit cubs from me. You can raise them yourself, but you must sell them to me to avoid price wars and damage to your own products.
Interest. The second is that I plan to rent the land on the north bank of the creek and raise free-range sheep and rabbits on the land. If you help me raise them, I will be responsible for paying you wages.
You can choose one of the options yourself. If someone is not satisfied with either option, you can also choose to raise chickens and ducks! But there is one rule that cannot be broken, and that is to ensure quality and strictly prohibit feeding hormones.
After that, I will ask the old party secretary and other respected elders in the village to take charge of supervision. If anyone breaks the rules I have set, please don’t blame me for being unkind."
Xu Yang put forward the plan he had been thinking about all night. The most important thing was that he finally thought of a way to make use of the land on the creek beach, which was to grow pasture and raise animals.
