"My name is Xu Dechun, and I am originally from Hengzhou, Jiangnan. I have been in New Zealand for more than ten years. I came here illegally at first, and later acquired the country." The current person in charge of the farm is a middle-aged man in his fifties.
He is very strong and seems to be honest and honest.
"I'll have to rely on you a lot in the future. I won't spend a lot of time here. But the farmland management will be very different from before. When the time comes, I will ask domestic technicians to come over and give you guidance."
Wang said.
"It doesn't matter. What the boss tells us to do, we part-time workers will do it. But if something goes wrong, you can't come to us," Xu Dechun said.
Lai Wang smiled and said, "That's for sure."
There are currently 12 permanent employees on the farm, including Xu Dechun, all of whom can operate machinery. There are many daily management tasks, mainly done by these people. They usually live on the farm. When there is not much work, there are only
Leave a few people on duty.
Although the work has been reduced by more than half after reducing the use of pesticides, fertilizers and herbicides, Laiwang is not prepared to reduce manpower. This is because the farm will need to intensify further processing and may even need more manpower.
At the beginning, these workers who are accustomed to working on this farm will definitely reduce their manpower when they hear that Laiwang plans to no longer use pesticides, fertilizers and herbicides. For people like them who are not highly educated, it is not easy to find another job.
Although the farm fires workers and the workers will receive a certain degree of compensation, for them, being able to keep their job is the best choice.
Upon hearing the news that Laiwang was not planning to lay off workers, all the workers cheered.
"Everyone, work hard. If the farm develops, I can guarantee that everyone's wages will increase to a certain extent. In the near future, we will carry out breeding. I will find a way to seed." Lai Wang said this.
, which is definitely good news for them.
In fact, the most difficult part of growing rice is the seedling transplanting stage. In China, seedling transplanting is generally adopted. This part is the most difficult to mechanize. Even if it is mechanized like an island country, it will be difficult to improve efficiency and require a lot of manpower.
For example, the Fuwang Farm in Laiwang (this farm in New Zealand has been renamed Fuwang Farm) has 7,650 acres of land and only 12 workers. If we adopt the method of raising seedlings and transplanting, there is basically no way to complete more than 7,600 acres of land.
The seedlings can be transplanted on acres of land. Moreover, the seedling site also requires a very large area.
Rice cultivation in European and American countries generally adopts mechanized rice direct seeding. In order to meet the requirements of land preparation for rice direct seeding, large-scale laser leveling machinery is widely used. 80% of rice production in the United States adopts mechanical dry seeding and 20% uses mechanical water seeding.
This farm also uses mechanical live broadcasting. This is also a very important reason why Xu Dechun's farm cannot be maintained. By using mechanical live broadcasting, labor is saved, but the cost of machinery has increased significantly. The machinery needs to be updated and maintained every year.
The expenses are very huge. So we are always in a state of capital preservation, let alone cost recovery.
Laiwang is not worried about this aspect. He plans to retain the method of mechanical direct seeding. Anyway, the sowing machinery is ready-made and does not need to be purchased separately. But for the cultivated varieties, Laiwang plans to plant fragrant rice that has been improved by space. But how to take out the seeds?
, but it is a big problem.
Laiwang is not going to be released directly in New Zealand. Doing so will leave many problems. Problems can easily be detected by interested people. Each country will have strict regulations on the introduction of seeds. If Laiwang grows a variety that has not been grown locally,
It will definitely be considered as smuggling. So Laiwang is prepared to take formal channels.
Laiwang has already prepared for this. This time Laiwang asked Mr. Yuan for help to export a batch of fragrant rice seeds to New Zealand as export rice seeds.
However, Laiwang is not very sure whether this batch of fragrant rice seeds are suitable for rice direct seeding technology. In addition, whether the fragrant rice seeds are suitable for New Zealand's weather is also an unknown answer.
But Laiwang is ready to take a gamble. With a mysterious space, Laiwang is very confident.
It is now the sowing season, and the seeds will arrive at the farm a few days after Laiwang arrives at the farm.
Xu Dechun has been working on this farm for five years. When Zhou Zhongheng recruited the first batch of workers, he came over and started working. He is very experienced in rice planting.
"Boss, your variety is a domestic variety. It is usually cultivated by raising seedlings and transplanting them. Now that we are using mechanical direct seeding, I am worried that it will not grow." Xu Dechun was very worried and quickly reminded Lai Wang.
There is a very obvious difference between mechanical direct seeding and seedling transplanting. Mechanical direct seeding is a method of sowing rice seeds directly into dry fields with a rice direct seeding machine and then managing them.
"You don't have to worry about this. You are not responsible for anything that happens. If we want to process high-grade rice in the future, we need very good quality seeds. We will know if it works or not once we try it," Lai Wang said.
This is more than 7,000 acres! Even if one acre of land produces 1,000 yuan, the total is more than 7 million yuan. To use it for experiments, this boss is really generous. Xu Dechun shook his head and said nothing more. After all, he was just a
For those who work part-time, they do what their boss tells them to do.
Luo Jinxuan and He Biqing were busy visiting various tourist attractions in New Zealand with Xu Xianglin, and did not take care of the affairs of Laiwang Farm. Since there was no language barrier in management of Laiwang, they let him take care of it by himself. People are forced
After he came out, Lai Wang is completely different now. He has begun to possess the temperament of a leader, but he still needs more experience. If you need to pay tuition for growth, use a farm to pay Lai Wang's tuition. Luo Jinxuan, etc.
People think this is not expensive.
The scene of large-scale machinery operating was so spectacular that Laiwang couldn't help but try it out. The feeling was indeed very comfortable. Laiwang even didn't understand why foreigners rejected the profession of working on a farm?
In fact, Laiwang has not lived here for a long time and has not noticed that this farm is quite far from the city, requiring an hour or two drive. There are many inconveniences in life, and he cannot often reunite with his family. For those who are used to it for a year
For Chinese people who only get together at the beginning and end of the year and spend the rest of the time working outside, it may not be a big deal, but for foreigners, not being able to be with their families and loved ones is an unbearable thing. Many farms
Lord, the whole family lives on the farm. However, issues such as children's education are still a troublesome matter.
Lai Wang drove the tractor on the farm speeding along the road in the middle of the farm fields. Luo Jinxuan and Xu Xianglin screamed loudly in the tractor, and dust rose up from behind the car.
Such exciting things are no longer suitable for He Biqing. She stood in the parking lot, smiling and looking at the tractor that had started to drive towards the meeting in the distance.
"This is a child who never grows up!"
She stroked her belly, and the smile on her face became even stronger. Thinking about the eldest son hiding in her belly, people couldn't help but laugh.
"Son, you can't be as carefree as dad in the future."
He Biqing whispered into her stomach.
Laiwang parked the tractor in the parking lot and immediately jumped off the tractor, "Biqing, are you coming up? I'll drive slower."
"Biqing will not ride on the tractor you drive. It's too dangerous. I almost lost my soul just now!" Luo Jinxuan's face was slightly pale. It was obvious that she had been shaken badly just now.
Xu Xianglin didn't care at all and climbed directly into the cab, "Jinxuan, let's go for a walk again?"
"I can't do it anymore. You are crazier than this guy! I'm finally convinced," Luo Jinxuan said.
"Lai Wang, come up and get into the trailer." Xu Xianglin said.
Lai Wang was in high spirits, but Luo Jinxuan frowned. Leaving these two alone was like putting matches and gasoline together.
"Wait for me, I'll go too." Luo Jinxuan gritted her teeth and climbed up.
Xu Xianglin looked at Luo Jinxuan's alert look, with a knowing smile on her face, and whispered, "Who cares!"
If Lai Wang was driving a sports car just now, then Xu Xianglin was driving a fighter jet. This girl is really crazy. She used the tractor as a fighter jet to drive. Fortunately, the power is really good. It is not noisy, but it is very powerful.
Driving at such a fast speed on this Shiji road, there was no problem at all.
Luo Jinxuan hugged Lai Wang tightly. This was also Lai Wang, who stabilized himself and was able to protect Luo Jinxuan from being hurt at all. Lai Wang was not afraid at all, and turned around and came back as if nothing was wrong. It was Luo Jinxuan's
His face became even paler.
"You want to commit murder! I will never dare to ride in the car you drive again." Luo Jinxuan complained as soon as she recovered.
Xu Xianglin chuckled, not caring at all, "Girl, I let you ride in the car I drive, because I think highly of you. You have so many reputations, why won't I let you sit if you want to sit in the future? When did you see me driving a tractor?
?”
Luo Jinxuan smiled and said, "Then you have to have a tractor to drive it."
Xu Xianglin smiled and said, "It's great that your family has a tractor. When I return to Xingsha, I will buy a tractor and drive it to block your door every day."
He Biqing kept laughing, "You haven't grown up yet."
Xu Xianglin smiled and said, "Of course, let your baby call me sister from now on."
"That's okay, you can call me uncle from now on." Lai Wang said with a smile.
"Okay. Uncle Wei. By the way, Uncle Wei, I've taken care of your farm affairs for you. You have to do something for me when you get back, right?" Xu Xianglin said with a smile.
He was really afraid of what would come. If he knew that one of his jokes would remind this white-bone demon of Tang Monk, even if Lai Wang beat him to death, he would not make such a joke.
"Look, you're in a hurry. I won't eat you. And even if I eat you, I won't swallow you." The look in this girl's eyes is really seductive.
"Uh-huh." I don't know if it was Luo Jinxuan or He Biqing who hummed in a low voice to express his presence. It was also like declaring his own territory, warning all evil intentions. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, novels are better
