Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt

"Red Star, have you seen the farm you mentioned?"

"I've been there, the rice fields are excellent, very fertile. There are definitely some flaws, the management was not good before, resulting in a lot of weeds, it must have taken some effort in the past two years. The grass on the pasture is really good, more than one person deep, the herders don't have any complaints, but the wolves and big tigers come to visit every winter, especially now that hunting of Siberian tigers is prohibited, the livestock still have to return to the shed every night, if left unattended the losses will be too great."

"Yes, that's the problem. Patrols are also an expense, but generally speaking, private enterprises have lower costs and don't keep idle people. We'll go over and take a look tomorrow, and we'll sign a contract if it's suitable."

The next day, Li Hongxing said that he wanted to go with them, but Liu Xia Lian did not let him. As the leader of a field, he had better not go, as it would be considered as abandoning his post without permission.

Li Hongxing had no choice but to arrange two officers from the security department to lead the way.

It’s more than a hundred kilometers, and it only takes two hours to get there.

This should be the northernmost part of Changbai Mountain. It is sparsely populated and there are almost no villages around.

Liu Xia Lian, who was received by Director Fang of the Agricultural Reclamation Bureau, was very enthusiastic. She was a local and spoke with a heavy accent, which was different from the Baishan dialect, but she was understandable.

The offices and warehouses are ready-made, and there are also processing workshops, but there are no machines. There are probably more than 200 houses and yards, which have been there for more than ten years and can still be used. However, they all belong to the original workers and cannot be given away for free. One set costs 300 yuan, and it is a one-time buyout.

The most important thing is the soil in the rice fields. The technicians took samples and tested them, and checked dozens of places, and the results were quite good.

As Li Hongxing said, there are a few more weeds in the rice fields, but it is not a big problem. Because Liu Xialian not only grows rice, but also raises geese and ducks. Before May, the geese and ducks graze the weeds, and they graze the weeds again during the autumn harvest. The duck and goose manure can fertilize the fields. There is no need to use more. With 50,000 mu of land, it is not a problem to raise 100,000 geese and 100,000 white ducks.

Director Fang was worried that Liu Xialian would not sign, so he cut himself a corner first: "If you feel pressured to pay so much money right away, you can wait until next year's autumn harvest to pay for the housing."

"We need to discuss this matter. It's too big for me to handle. Let's go and check out the pasture."

From the rice fields to the north, there are endless grasslands along the river. The river water is very shallow at this time, only up to the ankles. But when it floods, it should be quite large, 200,000 acres across dozens of miles.

Director Fang was actually not willing to take a closer look at it, because it was just after the National Day and the Siberian tigers were coming over, so there was a high possibility of encountering them.

The dry grass has turned yellow and dry. Some of it is as tall as 1.5 or 1.6 meters, but most of it is about 1 meter tall.

These pastures can be mowed with a mower, and then bales can be kept for livestock over the winter. The soil is still OK, but it is difficult to observe the grasslands in this season. There are few poisonous grasses in the grasslands here, so there is no need to worry too much.

"Director Fang, there is no bridge over the river. What will we do when the flood season comes? Can we build a bridge?"

“It can definitely be repaired, but it will have to be done at your own expense, and the county doesn’t have the money to allocate funds.”

The 200,000-acre grassland only has boundary markers to mark the area roughly, and there is no wire mesh. It is definitely spacious enough to raise 20,000 cows of beef.

Nowadays, high-quality beef cattle are all hybrids of grassland cattle and Simmental cattle, referred to as Western hybrid cattle. They are large and grow fast, and a two-year-old bull calf can easily weigh more than 1,000 kilograms.

"And the reeds and willows by the river are all yours. The reeds can be cut and sold every year, and the willows are used to protect the riverbank, but their branches and leaves can also be used for grazing.

Liu Xialian looked around and found that the willow forest on the river bank was only as thick as a hoe handle and was sparsely planted. There were not many trees. This grassland was dozens of miles long, and there were at least tens of thousands of trees planted along the river. It was easy to plant trees but difficult to cut them down. When they were planted, they were fine, but when they wanted to cut them down, they were not allowed to.

There are many wild animals, such as roe deer, sika deer, gazelle, wolf, wild boar, and even Siberian tiger. It may be troublesome for others, after all, the wild animals are fierce, but I have too many brave men, riding fast horses, holding hunting rifles, falcons for aerial reconnaissance, and hunting dogs for ground tracking, so I can drive the wolves out of the way.

"Director Fang, that's it. The contract is for thirty years, with annual payments. I'll arrange for the legal department to contact you later."

"Okay, no problem. Let's go and eat. I've arranged a dinner."

The payment for the rice fields is in the form of rice, but Liu Xia Lian wants to change it to money because she wants to create a rice brand. The specific details depend on how it is signed during the negotiation.

After I took it over, I handed it over to Xiao Ma to manage. I had already thought of a name for it, Xiao Ma Farm, and the operation was simple. It was just rice, geese, ducks, and beef cattle. I didn't have any big ambitions, I just wanted to produce 10,000 heads of beef a year.

Liu Xialian will not be needed for subsequent legal contract signing and accounting and cashier payment. There are still three days before Zhao Daxi's family marries their daughter-in-law, and it would be a bit bad to go three days early.

Zhao Hua pointed to Bingcheng and said, "The Bingcheng branch of the kimchi factory is under construction. Let's go over there to check out the progress and visit Bingcheng as well. We rarely come here."

Xiao Ma and the others also agreed, and Liu Xia Lian immediately said, "Okay, let's go check the factory first, and then have a big meal at our restaurant."

We have three types of restaurants in the house: Northeastern Iron Pot Stew, Linyi Fried Chicken and Sichuan Hot Pot. You can have a meal in each of them.

We reached the southern suburbs of Ice City at noon. The convoy stopped at a gas station to refuel and rest. One of the pickup trucks had a minor problem, so we drove to a nearby auto repair shop for repairs.

Liu Xia Lian, Zhao Hua, Dian Yan, Li Daniu and others were drinking tea in the shop before taking a break.

Just after I finished a pot of tea, I heard the sound of a shotgun outside, and then Xiao Ma ran in in a panic: "Director, something happened, our technician was beaten and our car was smashed."

"Go, have a look."

Zhao Hua immediately took out money to pay the bill at the shop and ran over immediately.

The people who were beaten were the driver and a laboratory technician, and the glass of the pickup truck was broken by a bullet.

"what happened?"

"We were lining up to get our car repaired when a convertible pickup truck with four guys in it came over and cut in line. I just told them to line up at the back. They came up and beat us up without giving us any explanation, and before they left they shot the car window and broke it. They said they were the Fourth Master's men, and that anyone who saw the Fourth Master in Ice City had to kneel."

Liu Xia Lian became furious when she heard this. The Saker Falcon took off for reconnaissance and soon discovered that the convertible jeep was slowly driving northward.

"Chase them. We must catch them and take their weapons."

Liu Xia Lian opened the back seat of the pickup truck and took out four twelve-gauge shotguns. These large shotguns were specially designed to cure all kinds of disobedience. Ordinary hunting rifles were nothing compared to these guns.

Five pickup trucks rushed out with a roar, and the young man who was repairing the car was stunned. When did they become so arrogant? They started fighting as soon as they disagreed with each other.
