Chapter 143 Planting Plan

  "Have you thought it through?!" Liang Sanping's first words upon seeing Jian Xingchao were as direct as could be. If at this point Liang Sanping still didn't know who was causing trouble, then he would be an idiot.

  Jian Xing Chao smiled wryly at Liang San Ping and said, "Think it over. Our policy is: leniency for those who confess, severity for those who resist. Punish the past, warn the future, treat the disease to save the man..."

  Liang Sanping heard this, and couldn't help but furrow his brow. You recite the scriptures so smoothly, but why do you act like this when doing things?! If he hadn't said these words, but instead directly admitted his mistake.

  Liang Sanping will forgive him, and the punishment won't be too severe. At most, it's just a warning, and he won't lose his job. But now, his attitude makes it hard for Liang Sanping to accept.

  You hold the record as a weapon, but you do things behind the scenes. Liang Sanping cannot accept this way of doing things, especially when he speaks with a tone of begging for mercy, which makes Liang Sanping quite disdainful.

  It's a man's fault, and he's wrong. He lowers his head to apologize and take responsibility, but never begs for mercy. When he wins, he's arrogant, and when he loses, he begs for mercy. This is what makes Liang Sanping most annoyed and also what he despises the most.

  Moreover, it was still this way of playing tricks. This made Liang Sanping even more impatient, so he swept his eyes and said coldly to Jian Xingchao: "If you know your mistake, come in and say it. If you don't know, then let's talk about it outside the door."

  Jian Xing's face turned red, his lips trembling. In his mind, he had already humbled himself enough. He had even said the words of apology, yet Liang Sanping was still being so ruthless and merciless?!

  "Don't worry! I won't suggest that the farm fires you. You are who you are, your wife and kids are your wife and kids. If one person makes a mistake, there's no reason for the whole family to suffer."

  But then Liang Sanping looked at Jian Xingchao with a cold expression and said, "If I were to take you in, what about your wife and children?! Such things, I can't do. Of course, taking some responsibility is necessary..."

  When Liang Sanping said this, Jian Xingchao felt that it was still acceptable. At least his identity as a worker was not fired, which means he still had this job. With this job, at least he wouldn't starve to death!

  "This apology is owed to you. Your current position isn't quite suitable for you either, making some adjustments is also necessary." However, Liang Sanping said in a cold tone: "I will suggest these things to the farm. Of course, I will still keep your formal worker identity."

  Upon hearing this, Jian Xing Chao finally felt at ease. It seemed that Liang San Ping really didn't have the intention of completely cutting him off, and had left himself a formal worker's identity. With this identity, his salary was at least one grade higher than others.

  "I'm going to rest, you go first!" Liang Sanping felt more and more uncomfortable the more he looked at Jian Xingchao. He was annoyed by this kind of opportunistic person, especially one who would bring a crowd to try to pressure him into giving them benefits.

  This kind of person, Liang Sanping was most annoyed. But got Liang Sanping's promise. Jian Xingchao didn't say much either. He disappeared directly into the darkness. He knew that he could get this promise, which was already good enough for him.

  Don't expect to get away unscathed, it's already a huge stroke of luck if you're not taken down directly.

  The next day, after discussion and reporting to the Guangdong North Farm Reclamation Bureau for approval, Jianghai Farm decided to contract out Jianghai Farm's Third Production Company to Liang Sanping personally. At the same time, 150 mu of updated land was leased to Liang Sanping in the form of shares.

  As the third production company, and 150 mu of updated land. Jianghai Farm accounts for 60% of the shares. While Liang Sanping accounts for 30%. The remaining will be distributed as bonuses. Ownership belongs to Yuebei Nongken General Bureau.

  This condition was a plan that the General Administration of Land Reclamation had debated for a long time before it was passed. At least, that's how it looks. The state still occupies the majority. The state still has absolute ownership of the three-production company.

  Even if national policies change, this is at most a public-private partnership and cannot be killed with one stick. From this point of view, the Guangdong North Farm Reclamation Bureau and Jianghai Farm are extremely smart in avoiding political risks.

  "Sanping, are you going to use this land to grow vegetables again?!" Professor Liu looked at Liang Sanping in front of him and said: "The area we are currently planting vegetables is not small! If it gets any bigger, it will form a competition..."

  "It's definitely not a vegetable!" Liang Sanping laughed and said, "I'm planning to grow fruit, and the first thing I considered was bananas. Bananas are something I've researched, they can be harvested in just a few months."

  "Japan has a huge demand for fruits, and among tropical fruits, bananas are the most in demand." Liang Sanping smiled, no one knew better than him about Japan's potential consumption of bananas after his time on the island.

  According to statistics, in 1999 Japan's banana imports totaled $545.27 million, accounting for 37% of the country's total fresh fruit imports. Moreover, it has been growing at a rate of over 6% per year. Unfortunately, however, China had not yet been able to open up the Japanese banana market at that time.

  At that time, due to political and a series of factors, the main import area for bananas in Japan was the Philippines. In sales of over $500 million, the Philippines accounted for more than $300 million.

  The rest of bananas come from South America and other Southeast Asian countries. Bananas sold in China account for less than 10%.

  Every time this kind of thing is mentioned, Xia Zhendong, who has already retired, feels deeply grieved. If the market had been opened up in the early years, China, which is so close to Japan, would undoubtedly have taken a huge share of the tropical fruit cake.

  "It's not just bananas, I also want to cultivate pineapples. That is, ground pineapples!" Liang Sanping smiled confidently and said: "In the gaps of banana planting, it is completely possible to cultivate ground pineapples."

  "It's worth noting that pineapple sales in Japan are also quite good. Although they don't surpass bananas, the profit is also very considerable."

  "Interplanting? We've never tried that before, Sanping are you sure it's feasible?" Liu professor seemed very interested when he heard Liang Sanping mention intercropping.

  When asked by Professor Liu, Liang Sanping couldn't help but pause. The interval planting technology has always been there, but it has never been applied to bananas and pineapples before. This is also a technology that was developed later on.

  If Liang Sanping hadn't gone to learn and instruct the farm workers on planting himself, he wouldn't have understood this technology so well. But Professor Liu's question had left him speechless.

  "Teacher, this is also an idea that I came up with after reading some technical materials. It hasn't been put into practice yet, and I'm bringing it up this time just to hope that you can help me test it out with the students."

  Helpless, Liang Sanping could only make the most of the existing data to cover up his own lies: "Pineapple planting does not have high requirements for land. Large-scale planting does require some fertilizer, and bananas also need fertilizer input."

  "But compared to bananas, pineapples are spaced extremely small. Moreover, banana planting requires at least a year, while pineapple is 6-9 months. In between, as long as we adjust the plant spacing properly, there's no harm in planting them simultaneously."

  Professor Liu nodded thoughtfully and picked up the pen and paper on the edge of the table to record Liang Sanping's words. He was also an expert in the industry, specializing in seed cultivation.

  So for this kind of situation, there is a certain understanding. Other professors in the hospital also have many who are engaged in full-time research on tropical crops. What Liang Sanping said is still reliable in the eyes of Professor Liu, but specifically, it's better to ask the professors who specialize in researching this direction. After all, they are professional people.

  "Sanping, I'll help you keep an eye on it first. Let the hospital do a small-scale trial, and if there's no problem, then you can launch the project." Liang Sanping heard this and couldn't help but smile wryly.

  "Teacher, I'm afraid time waits for no man! I've taken over three production companies now and need to make a profit quickly. How can we support so many employees' families otherwise..."

  "There's no concrete experimental data to support this, you're just acting blindly! It's definitely not going to work, Liang Sanping, don't be reckless." Professor Liu said sternly to Liang.

  Liang Sanping remained silent for a moment before speaking to Professor Liu, "Then... teacher, what do you think about intercropping pineapples in the updated rubber trees? Can we give it a try?"

  Professor Liu couldn't help but smile, this kid really doesn't give up! But thinking about it, the larger spacing of rubber is actually better than bananas for experimentation.

  "And besides, we invested in fertilizers. Did our fertilizers work or not?!" Liang Sanping saw that Professor Liu was silent and couldn't help but pat his chest and say: "Even if the experiment failed, our fertilizers can still promote the production of rubber trees, right?"

  Professor Liu thought for a moment, and indeed it was so. Planting pineapples requires a lot of fertilizer investment. But the requirement for soil quality is not high. If they are willing to invest in fertilizers, it's not impossible to harvest new rubber forests earlier.

  "It's better to update the rubber, at least five years before it can be harvested. In these five years, basically except for general care, we can't do anything else. Why not just give us a try, who knows if there will be any profit?"

  Liu Lao Shi laughed and said, "This kid is probably making a detour to get what he really wants. Let's provide him with technical personnel, and then we'll think of ways to update the rubber."

  "This matter, I don't care about it either. You go back and negotiate with the Jianghai Farm side first." Professor Liu said with a straight face: "Of course, we will still provide technical support. But the conditions are the same as before."

  Liang Sanping smiled and nodded, saying: "I'll go talk to Director Xing. I guarantee it will be approved, he will support me on this matter. And isn't this saving fertilizer for the farm a contribution to the country too?"

  After a pause, Liang Sanping solemnly said to Professor Liu: "Teacher, Jiang Li has contacted me. After a while, Mr. Lijia Cheng's inspection team will arrive on the island of Qiong. If nothing unexpected happens, we have also found a sales outlet for our fruit!"

  PS: Today I originally wanted to update more, but this morning I accompanied the old lady and old man for early tea. It wasn't until noon that I returned, only to find Auntie's computer was broken. As a result, Xiao Chao was caught and made to work.

  I managed to hold on until the afternoon, but then I was dragged away by a childhood friend to drink. He claimed: if I didn't go to his house to drink, he would cut off our friendship and kill me. Poor little Chao struggled until midnight before returning home to write... The update is late, please forgive me! Forgive me!
