Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

"Secretary, are we going to start new verification work next?"

Wang Muqi understood Fang Wei well and knew that she wouldn't stop, even if it meant spending money to build greenhouses to buy time.

"Wait a minute, let me ask Professor Ma and his team about the verification results first."

Fang Wei shook her head and went to her office.

He immediately called Professor Ma, who said that the seawater rice he and Professor Lin had planted would be ready for harvest in another two weeks. He would then send over detailed verification data.

"However, based on the current situation, the seawater rice you have cultivated is quite successful, with an estimated yield of nearly 800 jin per mu. We will need to wait for other data."

Professor Ma chatted and laughed on the phone, saying that his and Professor Lin's long-cherished wish should soon be fulfilled.

My mood was naturally very good.

"Okay, let's contact each other again in half a month."

Fang Wei chatted with the other party for a few minutes, and then ended the call.

night.

He drove back to the lakeside villa, where Pan Lianhua had already prepared six dishes and a soup.

Soon after, Xiaojie and Cheng Xiaoyue arrived, and everyone had dinner together.

"Xiaojie, are you still so busy with work?"

After dinner, Pan Lianhua asked Xiaojie a question in a very subtle way, since Xiaojie had been married for a long time but there was still no news of a child.

At this rate, when will she be able to hold her grandson?
"Mom, don't worry, no matter how busy I am with work, I won't neglect my responsibilities."

Xiaojie understands her mother quite well and knows what the other woman wants to know.

She simply told the truth: she didn't not want children because she was too busy with work; she just wasn't pregnant yet.

Pan Lianhua nodded. Once she understood the situation, she was no longer in a hurry and didn't ask any more questions.

On the other side, Fang Wei chatted with Cheng Xiaoyue for a while. A son-in-law is like half a son, so he couldn't neglect him.

The daughter and son-in-law stayed until after nine o'clock before getting up and leaving. They usually live in the apartment they got married in, but they stay in the villa on holidays or weekends.

Xiaojie had already renovated the villa; the house couldn't just stay empty forever.

We stayed in our old marital home mainly because of its good location, which saved us commuting time.

the next day.

Fang Wei went to see several real estate projects of the real estate company in Shenzhen. These projects were all cooperative projects with the port group and were progressing smoothly.

Over the years, the real estate company has made a name for itself in Shenzhen and Guangzhou, and the profits it makes each year are considerable.

Fang Wei spent the morning wandering around, and then went to the experimental field in the afternoon.

He led Wang Muqi and others to test some basic data of the soil, and also collected soil samples to send back to the research institute for a detailed analysis.

Judging from basic data alone, the soil condition of this tidal flat is improving.

In other words, there is now reason to believe that planting seawater rice can improve the soil of tidal flats or saline-alkali lands. Perhaps at a certain critical point, other crops can be planted on tidal flats or saline-alkali lands.

China has approximately 18 billion mu of arable land and about 15 billion mu of tidal flats and saline-alkali land.

Even if this data is not very accurate, the successful cultivation of crops on hundreds of millions of acres of saline-alkali land is still great news for grain production.

"Secretary, do you think we should build a greenhouse? We don't need a modern one, a simple one will do."

A few days later, Wang Muqi couldn't resist and wanted to continue cultivating seawater rice in the greenhouse.

He also consulted the local villagers about this matter. The coastal areas are hit by typhoons every year, so building large greenhouses on the mudflats is not cost-effective. Instead, simple greenhouses are more economical and practical.

There's no need to build greenhouses on all the experimental fields; a greenhouse covering ten acres is sufficient.

“Okay, you can take charge of this. Set up a greenhouse on ten acres of land, and then we’ll continue cultivating seawater rice.”

Fang Wei nodded. They wouldn't build those large steel-structured greenhouses; a regular greenhouse covering ten acres wouldn't cost too much.

He didn't need to worry about these things. In the following days, he and Pan Lianhua wandered around Shenzhen and then went to Guangzhou.

After arriving here, he didn't stay at the group company all day. He also took a few days to visit Xiangshan and inspect the electrical appliance group company and Xiangyang Locks.

Chenchen will start kindergarten this September. During the few days that her husband was away, Pan Lianhua felt a little bored at home, so she went to the clinic to help Binbin.

In reality, she wasn't of much use; she was mainly there to pass the time.

"Taoist Master, will you come back with us this time?"

After Fang Wei returned from Fragrant Hills, the couple prepared to return to the village.

Until his departure, Master Sun didn't mention going back, so Fang Wei had to ask him. Master Sun was conflicted. He was happy every day helping Binbin run his clinic in Yangcheng. But he also knew very well that his roots were in Sanqing Temple, and it was indeed time to go back.

"Grandpa Sun, you should go back. I can manage on my own, don't worry."

Binbin was also reluctant to see Sun Laodao leave, but reason prevailed in the end, and he offered a word of advice.

Sun Daoren nodded, gave Binbin a serious explanation, and then began packing his luggage before embarking on his journey home with Fang Wei and his wife.

With only Binbin remaining as the doctor on duty at the clinic, the number of patients naturally decreased significantly.

Binbin couldn't muster any energy for several days, but when he thought about Sun Daoren's age, he felt relieved. The man was helping him run the clinic despite his advanced age, so he had to consider his feelings in return.

With the clinic's current income, supporting a family is definitely not a problem.

Moreover, through extensive practice, his medical skills have made great progress, and he is no longer a theoretical expert with high aspirations but low abilities.

Fang Wei and the others returned to the village. Sun Daoren stayed at his house for one night, and the next day he asked Fang Wei to drive him to the Sanqing Temple.

"Master, today we'll take the road behind the mountain. Although the mountain road is a bit steep, it's shorter and will save us some time."

Early in the morning, Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua drove Sun Daoren up the mountain.

The roads in the mountains are not of high standard, and due to the terrain, there are many sharp turns and uphill/downhill sections.

While driving, Fang Weiyi introduced the situation in the mountains to Sun Daoren. Sun Daoren was very surprised, not expecting that such a big change had taken place in the mountains in just a few years.

The car sped along until it stopped near the back gate of Sanqing Temple.

"Master, we won't go in. I just got back to the company and have a lot of things to do. I'll come see you when I have time. Now that the mountain road has been built, it's very convenient. A round trip in half a day is easy."

Fang Wei unloaded Sun Daoren's luggage from the car. When someone in the temple saw the old Daoist, a whole bunch of Daoists rushed out.

He and Pan Lianhua did not go inside. After greeting the old Taoist priest, they left directly.

Upon arriving in the village, he placed the lotus flower at his doorstep and went straight to his office.

"Chairman, these are some documents from recent times. Please take a look."

Assistant Yang and Secretary Du then entered his office. Secretary Du placed a stack of documents on the desk and turned to leave.

Fang Wei looked up at Yang Feng, waiting for him to report on his work.

"Chairman, let me first report to you on the previous inspection."

It has become the norm for Yang Feng to go out on inspections in place of Fang Wei.

He first reported on the problems discovered during the inspection, as well as some difficulties encountered by the enterprises, and put forward suggestions for rectification and solutions.

Fang Wei thought for a moment, revised Yang Feng's suggestion, and then asked the other party to issue the document according to his wishes.

After Yang Feng left, he sat down and quietly looked at the documents.

Yaoling Group is now quite large, truly a mega-corporation. Therefore, the group is involved in countless matters, and he is only responsible for strategic and major issues.

Other operational matters are handled by the management of each unit; he can only learn about the group's situation from documents and reports while sitting in his office.

This is why he insists on conducting inspections. As the company grows larger, there are many things he cannot understand. If he does not personally go to the front line to understand the situation, he is likely to confine himself to an information cocoon.

Fang Wei was reviewing documents until noon, and he also made comments on some important matters.

Before leaving get off work, Du Wanyi took the documents he had approved and then passed them on according to their respective jurisdictions. Yang Feng came by once in between, summarized the previous autumn harvest situation, and conducted an in-depth analysis.

According to Yang Feng's prediction, the price of rapeseed will rise significantly next year.

Prices of other oilseed crops have also risen to some extent, but none have increased as dramatically as those of rapeseed.

In addition, the company's various seeds have begun to be sold. This season, the production of [Yuxiang No. 2] seeds has increased significantly, and Lin Bingkun has strengthened the promotion of this product, resulting in a substantial increase in the market share of [Yuxiang No. 2] seeds.

Now things have returned to normal, with Yaoling Agriculture putting immense pressure on Xinkaiqi.

Furthermore, when it was time to plant winter wheat, the sales of the improved variety [Nanfengmai 327] suddenly surged, catching Lin Bingkun off guard.

However, this problem is easy to solve. The Jianghuai base has a large stock of Nanfengmai 327 seeds, and it can replenish the market in a timely manner.

Other industries are also performing well, with Yaoling Real Estate Company being the biggest source of profit. After all, the real estate market across the country is starting to heat up, and thanks to the company's strong performance in Shenzhen and Guangzhou, it is expected to achieve a profit of 57 billion yuan this year.

Electrical Appliances Group, Xiangyang Locks, and Yaoling Food all performed well. Among them, the edible oil products belonging to the food company are selling well and are expected to generate a profit of around 7 million yuan.

It can be said that this is the best period in the history of Yaoling Group.

However, there were also many hidden worries, but Fang Wei knew them perfectly well without Yang Feng's analysis.

in the afternoon.

Yang Feng entered the office and said, "Chairman, the county just called to say that leaders from the provincial agriculture department are coming to inspect our work, and they'd like us to make preparations for their reception." (End of Chapter)
