Chapter 163 Changes

The birth of a new thing often means the exit of the corresponding old thing.

Yulin City Urban Area.

Shahe Farmers Market.

An aunt who often buys vegetables at a roadside stall has been very confused recently because several old acquaintances who used to set up stalls at the entrance of the farmer's market have disappeared.

She saw a middle-aged man selling bananas on a tricycle and walked over quickly.

"Huzi! Why haven't you seen Mr. Zhang and the others selling vegetables recently?"

"It turns out to be Aunt Li, would you like some bananas?" Huzi greeted with a smile.

"This bunch." The aunt picked up a row of millet and bananas and gave it to Huzi, and then asked:

"How come Mr. Zhang and the others have been nowhere to be seen recently, and they haven't heard of any major inspections in Chuangha City. What's going on?"

"Oh! Aunt Li is asking about old man Zhang and the others! They have gone back to the village to retire." Huzi said while quickly weighing the millet and bananas.

"Retirement care? Old man Zhang has no children. Is there a new policy from above?" The aunt was confused.

Huzi shook his head and explained:

"No, their land is rented by a big company. I heard the rent is one to two thousand yuan a month. I will change my career in a few days."

"I see, why are you changing your career? Your land is also rented out?" the aunt asked curiously.

"That's right, several acres of my land have been rented to a large company. There is a farmhouse in the village, so I went back to help." Huzi replied with a smile.

"Here comes Aunt Li for ten dollars."

After receiving a bag of millet and bananas, the aunt took out ten yuan from her wallet and gave it to Huzi.

"It's better not to set up a stall, so as not to worry about starting a business."

"That is, we have no choice but to set up stalls, and the managers have no choice. If we can live a decent life, who would want to set up stalls in the streets and alleys."

"When will your farmhouse open? Then I will bring some old sisters to enjoy it."

"On August 24th, when Aunt Li comes, I will definitely give you a 20% discount."

The situation at the entrance of Shahe Farmers Market is actually a microcosm of the eight pilot cities.

The rural cooperatives of Fengdu Group have initially produced certain social impacts.

At the entrance of many farmers' markets or in the streets and alleys, farmers who set up stalls to produce and sell their own products are quickly disappearing.

Many young people from rural areas have also returned to the countryside, and some have become employees of Fengdu Group.

After all, delivery persons, porters, truck drivers, warehouse managers, salespersons, etc., these positions all require a large amount of labor.

In fact, Fengdu Group has directly created at least 200,000 jobs in eight pilot cities and initially improved the lives of more than three million farmers.

And this process is deepening and expanding.

Fengdu Group and the Institute of Social Research are studying to make rural cooperatives more sound and diversified.

For example, run a farmhouse, create characteristic rural tourism, discover local specialty products, etc.

It is necessary to deeply tap the potential of the region and create a diversified rural economy.

To a certain extent, the countryside is a country's flood discharge area. Excessive urbanization often brings many problems.

Once a large number of people are concentrated in cities, it will inevitably lead to traffic congestion, housing shortages, reduced environmental quality, employment difficulties, farmland abandonment and a series of problems.

If you look at the Samba Country in South America, you will know that rapid urbanization and the middle-income trap have directly caused a large number of landless farmers to become members of slums.

Huang Haojie has instructed Li Jianhua to provide comprehensive assistance to members of various rural cooperatives.

Of course, this comprehensive assistance does not mean direct payment of money. After all, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish.

The main purpose is to provide job opportunities and allow villagers to make some folk crafts and the like.

In addition, wind power and solar power generation are vigorously promoted in rural areas.

At present, Galaxy Technology’s graphene solar power generation film has been successfully developed.

The electricity generated by wind power and solar power can be used by villagers themselves or sold to Galaxy Technology's power storage stations.



Baise City, Guangxi Province, Longlin Autonomous County of all ethnic groups.

Longlin Autonomous County is located in the northwest of Guangxi Province, at the junction of Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi provinces.

It has a subtropical alpine climate with distinct four seasons, which is warm and rainy.

Due to the influence of topography, precipitation and temperature vary greatly across the county. The temperature decreases with increasing height, and the vertical changes are significant.

The territory is an area with low latitude and high altitude, so there is no severe heat in summer. In winter, the cold air from the south has weakened after crossing the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, so there is no severe cold in winter.

This climate feature is beneficial to the growth, development and yield of subtropical crops and temperature-loving food crops.

As one of the eight pilot cities, Baise City is currently undergoing vigorous development.

The Longlin goats in Longlin Autonomous County are an excellent and characteristic breed here.

Longlin goats are famous for their large size, fast growth and good meat production performance. They are a larger meat-type local breed of goats in southern China.

This goat breed has been included as one of the top ten goat breeds by Fengdu Group. Fengdu Animal Husbandry Company has two large goat farms here, with a population of about 100,000.

In addition to livestock companies, various cooperatives have also prepared 6 goat farms with a capacity of 10,000 heads.

In a small mountain village, the managers of the local cooperative are arranging the production of vegetables and fruits.

"Wang She, this is the production table assigned by the above." The assistant and financial officer handed a form to Wang Kai.

Wang Kai took a look and found that in addition to the three inevitable crops of potatoes, corn, and rice, the remaining five vegetable varieties were peppers, Chinese cabbage, white radish, eggplant, and green beans.

As the system improves day by day, the fruits and vegetables produced by various cooperatives also become more specialized.

Generally, three to five cooperatives are responsible for the production of a variety of vegetables and fruits in a region.

Such division of labor is conducive to management, and it also avoids duplication of production by various cooperatives.

The planting area of ​​these vegetables and fruits is analyzed and calculated by the supercomputing center.

This ensures that there will be no oversupply or undersupply, which not only helps improve production efficiency, but also stabilizes the price of vegetables and fruits in the market.

After all, the ultimate victims of the ups and downs in vegetable and fruit prices are farmers and consumers.

A bumper harvest of vegetables and fruits will inevitably lead to market prices falling or even plummeting, and farmers may have difficulty recouping their investment or even lose all their money;

If there is no money to be made from this year's bumper harvest, farmers will subconsciously reduce their planting area next year and switch to other crops. Switching to other crops is equivalent to trying their luck.

Under the influence of this awareness of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, farmers will inevitably run around like headless flies. Once they find that planting a certain crop is profitable, they will inevitably follow suit.

Once farmers plant a large number of crops, it is very likely that supply will exceed demand, causing market prices to plummet. In this case, a vicious circle may form, eventually causing farmers to go bankrupt.

In this process, consumers will also be affected. After all, farmers have no money to make, so they may sell substandard products or the quality of their products is not up to standard.

Fengdu Group is now using powerful supercomputing and artificial intelligence to analyze the planting area and production volume of various vegetables and fruits.

There is no need to pursue high prices, as long as there are no big ups and downs in price fluctuations.

In this way, both farmers and consumers can benefit.
