Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 447 Farm Planning
With this in mind, Zhao Lei asked Duan Shaohua beside him: "I plan to use this land as soon as possible. Can I find an engineering team and trustworthy workers here?"

As Shen Hanqing's secretary, Duan Shaohua's working ability naturally goes without saying.After knowing that Zhao Lei was coming to take over the land, he had already started to pay attention to this issue.

So after listening to Zhao Lei's words, Duan Shaohua said with confidence: "Mr. Zhao, I have already understood what you said. If you want, I can give you some introductions."

Of course Zhao Lei would not refuse such a good deed, so Duan Shaohua soon started contacting.After making a few phone calls, he said to Zhao Lei, "Mr. Zhao, please wait for a moment, the person I have an appointment with will be here soon."

The fact is exactly the same. Zhao Lei didn't wait long when he saw a middle-aged man in his 40s rushing over on a motorcycle.His complexion is dark, his hands are full of calluses, he looks like someone who has been working in the fields all year round.

The middle-aged man quickly parked his motorcycle and greeted Duan Shaohua expectantly: "Mr. Duan, here I come. Where is the new owner of this land?"

To Zhao Lei's surprise, the middle-aged man also spoke Chinese.This made him nod secretly. It seems that Duan Shaohua really put his mind to finding someone who can speak Chinese, and communication with each other will not be a problem in the future.

Duan Shaohua began to introduce the two of them: "This is Mr. Zhao Lei, the new owner of this land. This is Zhong Jiahong. His father is a Chinese from Guangdong. Now he lives near here and has always been a farmer."

It was only then that Zhao Lei realized that Zhong Jiahong was an overseas Chinese. No wonder he is so fluent in Chinese. He smiled and nodded at the other party, "Mr. Zhong, hello."

"Mr. Zhao, you are too polite." Facing Zhao Lei, Zhong Jiahong was a little restrained, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "You should call me Lao Zhong, so I can feel more at ease."

It can be seen that Zhong Jiahong is a real person, Zhao Lei also nodded with a smile and said, "I'll tell you the truth, Old Zhong. I plan to build a farm here and specialize in planting high-end crops. You are the person recommended by Duan Shaohua, of course I believe it very much. Yes. Let's get right to the point, would you like to help me manage this farm!"

Zhong Jiahong whispered: "I used to run my own farm here, and I still have some experience in this area. Although this land was bought by Mr. Shen later, I still want to stay and continue to deal with the land."

Zhao Lei said with a smile: "So you are willing, very good! Starting today, the daily management of the farm will be entrusted to you. As for the crops to be planted and the sales of products, I will make other arrangements."

Zhao Lei knew very well in his heart that Duan Shaohua would never dare to cheat himself.Moreover, this piece of land is too far away, and the usual management work can only be handed over to others.Right now, Zhao Lei has no other choice, so he simply chooses to trust Zhong Jiahong.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Lei was so direct, Zhong Jiahong was stunned for a moment, and then said with a happy face: "Mr. Zhao, you trust me so much, I will definitely try my best to take care of this farm, and I will never let you down!"

Zhao Lei said seriously: "I won't say much about those scenes. The farm is fully managed by you. If it runs well, there will be a lot of bonuses every year, and the income will definitely not be worse than when you ran the farm yourself before."

Duan Shaohua also chimed in: "Mr. Zhao also runs a farm in China, and the vegetables grown on his farm won the gold medal at this year's World Food Expo. As long as you work hard, Mr. Zhao will never treat you badly!"

Zhong Jiahong also knew about the World Food Expo, and said to Zhao Lei with surprise on his face: "It turns out that you are the Chinese who won the gold medal. It's a great honor to meet you! It's a great honor to work for you!"

Zhao Lei said with a smile: "I'm sorry, but it's just luck. I want to ask you first, how many people are needed to manage this 52-hectare land well?"

Zhong Jiahong pondered: "I can't say right now. It depends on what crops you plan to plant, as well as the terrain and other conditions of the farm. You can't generalize."

Satisfied with Zhong Jiahong's answer, Zhao Lei nodded lightly and said, "I will tell you my arrangement later, and then we will discuss this issue."

At this time, the boss of the engineering company introduced by Duan Shaohua also rushed over. This man named Mahathir is a native of Malaysia.

Duan Shaohua told Zhao Lei that Mahathir has always cooperated with Shen Hanqing's company and is a reputable contractor. There is absolutely no problem in entrusting him with the farm construction project.

Now that everyone was here, everyone drove into the farm area, and Zhao Lei began to introduce his plan for the farm to Zhong Jiahong and Mahathir.

Zhao Lei had already thought about how to use this land more than once, and now he said it logically.

First of all, there is a large piece of land near the sea. This land is about [-] hectares. It is flat and has abundant water sources. Zhao Lei plans to turn it into a rice field.

As a farmer who has been living in the area, Zhong Jiahong has the most say in this aspect. Hearing this, he nodded lightly and said: "I also planted rice here a few years ago, and the harvest is still very good. And the land here It is flat and suitable for mechanized planting, as long as there are a few medium-sized agricultural machinery and equipment, a lot of labor can be saved, this decision is very correct!"

Since even Zhong Jiahong agreed, the matter was settled.Next, Zhao Lei pointed to a slightly higher place not far away and said, "As for the more than ten hectares of land over there, I plan to use it to grow various vegetables."

More than ten hectares of land is almost [-] mu of land, and the scale of this planting has already surpassed much in China.However, in Zhao Lei's plan, the vegetables produced by this farm are to be supplied to the entire Southeast Asia region, and even the oil-rich countries in West Asia are also on the vegetable supply list.Therefore, although the planting area of ​​vegetables is indeed large, there is no need to worry that they will not be sold.

Moreover, growing vegetables in South Asia does not have the problem of heat preservation in winter. The main function of vegetable greenhouses is to prevent diseases and insect pests and shade, so the construction cost is much lower than that in China, which is good news for Zhao Lei.

As for the remaining half of the land, Zhao Lei plans to use the eight hectares near the hillside to grow sugar cane.This is also a common cash crop in the south, and if grown well, it can also be a good source of income.

The remaining ten hectares of hillside land will be turned into coffee gardens, all planted with coffee trees.Zhao Lei believes that with the help of Zijin Gourd, Fairy Gourd Coffee will soon become a top coffee that is even better than Blue Mountain Coffee!

After introducing the plan of the farm to others, Zhao Lei asked them with a smile: "Everyone, do you have any opinions on this plan?"
