I am farming in the real world

"Good job, Lao Shang!"

"When we make money, I'll get you that imperial jade pendant."

Inside the hotel, Chen Jue nodded at his strategist, showing his encouragement.

"Thank you, Boss!"

"I'm willing to go through fire and water for you, Boss! I'll dedicate myself to the fullest until my dying breath! It's my lifelong wish."

Upon hearing about the emerald reward, a green glint appeared in the eyes of the villager, Lao Shang.

Of course, it was only through a bottle of vodka, plus 500,000 RMB in cash, that he secured the soybean import customs declaration materials from the Russian side, along with the certificate of origin marked with the Hasan district.

The low cost of this endeavor was truly beyond Chen Jue's expectations.

This also made Chen Jue realize that the private economy in Russia was indeed a bit lackluster.

A major power relying on the legacy of the Soviet Union, still with a lagging manufacturing industry after decades. Export trade relies mainly on selling underground oil, gas, and mineral resources, while military research depends on archaeology, as if they've gone down the wrong path on the technology tree.

Just like when the Soviet Union disintegrated, the traders from Northeast China, shuttling between the two countries, made a fortune with just a few containers of light industrial goods.

There was even a remarkable story of someone who exchanged 500 train cars of canned goods for an airplane directly from the Russians, selling it to a domestic airline company and making over 100 million.

So many years have passed, and although it seems that times are progressing and developing, many things have not changed.

Because the essence of this world is actually just a big, shoddy stage.

......

After settling the import qualification for the first batch of soybeans, the remaining issues became much simpler.

Chen Jue spent a few days sightseeing in Northeast China, relaxing and experiencing the Northeast culture.

He experienced things like getting scrubbed in a bathhouse, heavy industrial barbecue, and even watched the representative light industrial live broadcasts and social dances of the 'spiritual lads'.

At the beginning of the year, Harbin was a popular tourist destination, but Chen Jue was still lying in Chen Village, still not out of the shadow of his failed business.

This trip to the Northeast, with money and leisure, naturally allowed him to experience every aspect of it, with Chen's Store No. 1 making hundreds of thousands every day.

However, we won't go up to the VIP service on the second floor of the bathhouse.

In addition, Chen Jue also sent Lao Shang to several local grain and oil companies to buy more than 100 tons of Northeast soybeans at a market price of 4820 yuan per ton, and sent them to Ruixian with the help of Tiehan Logistics' trucks.

The selected varieties were the two most common in Northeast China: 'Heihe 43' and 'Heinong 48'.

China's non-GMO soybean varieties are actually very rich. There are more than 20 common varieties circulating in the market, not to mention some soybeans that exist in experimental fields across the country and have not yet been widely popularized.

Such as Zhonghuang 35, Huajiang No. 4, Qihuang 34, etc., each variety is a targeted variety cultivated according to the soil, climate, and precipitation conditions of each province.

Taking the 'Heihe 43' that Chen Jue bought as an example, this is a soybean variety recommended for planting in the fourth accumulated temperature zone of Heilongjiang, with a high protein content of 41.84% and a moderate fat content of 18.98%. It takes about 115 days from emergence to maturity.

The reason why he bought more than 100 tons of these Northeast soybeans in one go is also because the underground planting base in Chen Village has been developed a bit too large.

A full 4.5 million mu of MC fields are available for sowing!

It won't do not to buy more soybeans as seeds.

......

After ending his few days of Northeast tourism, Chen Jue had the strategist take a car to Rizhao, Dongshan Province, to develop the market.

By the way, he had him establish a shell company called 'Red Star Grain and Oil Foreign Trade Co., Ltd.' in Rizhao to conduct a single-line contact with Alexey.

The reason for choosing Rizhao is because Rizhao has the largest soybean landing port in China.

The annual import volume of grain in the single category of soybeans alone exceeds 10 million tons!

As for the imports of other grains such as corn, wheat, rice, and sorghum, they have also reached a very alarming number.

More than 200 large and medium-sized grain and oil companies with well-known names in China, such as COFCO and China Grain Reserves Group, have sent people to Rizhao to do business related to imported soybeans around Rizhao Port.

It has even formed a 'front port, back factory' model. As soon as the soybeans land, they can be pulled to nearby factories for processing.

Chen Jue would naturally not let go of such precise sales channels.

Moreover, Chen Jue felt much more at ease sending Lao Shang, a shrewd merchant who had absorbed a lot of human knowledge, over there.

Because this shrewd villager in MC, in addition to quickly supplementing his knowledge related to business operations from books.

After running around with Chen Jue for a period of time, he even grasped the unique 'human relationships' in China better than Chen Jue, a young man.

Having him go ahead as a scout can save Chen Jue a lot of time.

......

After saying goodbye to the Northeast, he took a plane back to Wenzhou.

When he arrived at the Binhai Industrial Park by taxi, the large Rubik's Cube factory standing on the coastal mudflat caught Chen Jue's attention from afar.

The iron-gray frosted texture and the oversized cube shape, looked like the ancient pyramids from a distance, firmly occupying the south side of the Feiyun River estuary.

"Damn! Is this almost becoming a landmark?"

After getting out of the car, Chen Jue scanned the outside of the Fangkuai Technology's courtyard wall.

Many vehicles from the county were parked on the roadside, and many of the young people getting out of the cars were taking pictures with their mobile phones.

On the embankment of the coastline of the Smart Control Equipment Town across the river, a row of long guns and short cannons were also set up. It is estimated that photography enthusiasts from all over the county brought their high-end cameras from the bottom of the box.

The sound of the waves and the wide sea level became the background.

When the afterglow of the setting sun shines on this Rubik's Cube factory, the metal-textured wall surface reflects an absolutely beautiful orange-red glow.

Those who came to take pictures of the Rubik's Cube factory, upon seeing this spectacular scene of modern architecture and nature in harmony, cheered from both sides of the Feiyun River.

"It's out!"

"This is definitely a blockbuster-level background!"

"What kind of idea did the boss of this Fangkuai Technology come up with?"

"He actually put a big cube at the estuary. It's been many years since I've seen an architectural subject suitable for shooting blockbusters."

"It looks simple, but it's too easy to produce great shots!"

"If you put LED lights on it at night, wouldn't it be possible to learn from the Oujiang light show in Wenzhou?"

The photography enthusiasts who ran over to capture blockbusters were talking about it.

Listening to these discussions, Chen Jue stood at the gate and stared at his own Rubik's Cube factory, also revealing a bit of contemplation.

"Put on a light show on the outside of this factory? That's a good idea!"

"If it's operated properly, wouldn't it be possible to become a world-class landmark building, just like the MSG Sphere giant ball venue in Las Vegas?"

"They made a sphere, I made a cube, absolutely no problem!"

Minimum second update ~ It's the weekend tomorrow, let's see if I can burst out a few more updates, I'm going to have a good sleep tonight.
