A soft-waisted educated youth has sex with a loyal dog and a rough guy in the 1960s

Speaking of growing cacti, Chen Xiangdong immediately understood what Lu Miao meant.

What is cochineal? Chen Xiangdong instinctively rejected it before.

However, after several product qualification reports showed that there were no problems, Chen Xiangdong gradually accepted it.

Now when it comes to this matter, Lin Xian and Mei Zi are still confused, but Chen Xiangdong has already started chatting with Lu Miao:

"How much land do you want to rent? How long will it take?"

A few years ago, Lu Miao participated in the Up to the Countryside Movement and worked as an educated youth in the countryside for several years.

She still knew roughly how big an acre of land was.

But it is difficult to estimate how many cacti can be planted per acre of land...

After thinking for a while, Lu Miao said:
"Ten or eight acres will do. If it's too small, you won't be able to achieve anything."

If you start with just three or five acres of land for trial and error, the cost will be low and it will seem to reduce the risk, but in fact it will bring more subsequent problems.

For example, a piece of land in the surrounding area is rented out by others, resulting in "site fragmentation" when the space is expanded later, making management more time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Or if you are renting farmland that already has an owner, if you are unlucky enough to encounter a stubborn tenant, it is not bad if you just pay a little more and the landlord asks for the higher price.

I’m afraid that something else might get involved and it would be difficult to discuss.

Instead of getting upset at that time, it is better to implement it now.

Thinking of this, Lu Miao added:

"If wasteland is available, it should be given priority. This project is a long-term investment, and a ten- or twenty-year lease is fine. But if there is only farmland to choose from, the lease term should be controlled within ten years as much as possible."

After all, working in a relevant department, Lu Miao had a relatively clear understanding of some policy matters.

At this moment, rural land is still collectively owned.

Although the contracting system has been gradually implemented, the contracting rights, operating rights, and related policies are very vague.

The new policy will be gradually implemented in the next few years to avoid major changes and unnecessary disputes. We should avoid problems that can be avoided by ourselves at this time.

Chen Xiangdong frowned slightly and stared at the boiled shrimps on the plate. He nodded his chin slightly after listening to her analysis.

Speaking of wasteland, Lin Xian interrupted at the right time:
"Brother Yuan's farm is run on rented wasteland. There is still a lot of vacant land nearby. Maybe we can go there and take a look when the time comes."

Lu Miao nodded after careful consideration:

"That's a good suggestion. It would be nice if they could be next to each other. It would be more lively with more people in that area."

Lin Xian smiled and nodded, saying "hmm" several times:
"I think so!"

After hearing what Lu Miao said, Chen Xiangdong had already made up his mind, so he nodded again and said:

"Okay, I'll go ask someone tomorrow."

Let’s get back to the matter of opening a branch.

Although Lu Miao invited them to come over to discuss the matter, she had considered all aspects very carefully, including some of the more worrisome points, so this was basically a done deal.

She has always held the final say.

She thought the matter over carefully and felt that there was no problem with it, so naturally Chen Xiangdong and the others would not have any major objections.

So, the matter was settled.

Everyone divided the work among themselves and finalized the work plan for the coming year. It was almost half past eight and the dinner was almost coming to an end.

Chen Xiangdong stood up and said that he would go back today and would contact him by phone if there was anything else.

Lu Miao told him not to worry and asked Fu Jingyou to get the fishing rods that he and Xie Fei brought back from Guangzhou.

He also asked Wang Xiu to bring a thermos bucket filled with hot food to Xie Fei.

The second floor was noisy and lively.

As the men stood by the table holding their fishing rods and laughing happily, Lu Miao took Mei Zi and Lin Xian's hands and led them to the sofa:
"I packed these this afternoon. Do you two see any that you like? If you don't mind, take them back and wear them." "You don't want these nice clothes?"

"It's not that I don't want to, but don't you know the nature of my job? I can't wear these out on a regular basis, and they're just piled up in the closet. They might get damaged after a while. If you can wear them, it would be a big help to me."

Lu Miao's work mainly involves internationalization, and Mei Zi and Lin Xian know this.

After hearing what she said, the two of them believed it 100%.

But to be honest, Lu Miao's aesthetics and fashion sense have always been ahead of the times.

Although these clothes were sorted out and discarded by her, they were still very fashionable in the eyes of Lin Xian and Mei Zi.

The quality is even better.

The material was so poor that she didn't even like it.

Besides, although Lin Xian is married to Ling Yuan, she and Lu Miao get along in a superior-subordinate relationship on a daily basis.

Lin Xian thought all the clothes were nice, but she was too embarrassed to ask for them.

On the contrary, the plums that have been with Lu Miao for a few years are much more mature.

Mei Zi stretches out this love, and shakes out that love as well.

Without Lin Xian's help, Mei Zi hugged Lu Miao's arm and took care of him in one go:

"Sister-in-law, I think these clothes are all good. If you really can't wear them, then we can take them all away and share them with Sister-in-law Gu Ying when we get back!"

Lu Miao smiled and patted her hand that was holding her arm and said:

"Okay, then you guys go back and make your own arrangements."

Lin Xian watched and smiled without saying anything, just waiting for Lu Miao and Mei Zi to make a decision.

They came to eat empty-handed, but left with a big bag of things.

When Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou were seeing someone off, Xu Xiangcao walked in front to open the door.

Hiding her identity from anyone, Xu Xiangcao couldn't help but roll her eyes a few more times.

After seeing the guests off, Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou returned to the inner courtyard. Xu Xiangcao was guarding the hanging flower gate, looking inside frequently.

But she couldn't see the person she wanted to see. Xu Xiangcao was not convinced and wondered what was Lu Miao's charm? What was so good about him?

Not to mention the old and young in the family.

How come as soon as she came back, her husband would leave work early and rush home, but now he doesn’t even go to the concierge at night!
Obviously, I have always been keen on tinkering with those messy things...

Comparing one person to another is really infuriating!
Xu Xiangcao held her breath and originally wanted to wait and see.

But the spring evening breeze was quite chilly, and it made her sneeze several times.

Xu Xiangcao's teeth were chattering from the cold and she blew her nose onto the soles of her shoes.

There was nothing he could do. No matter how unhappy or unwilling he was, he could only tighten his collar and go back to the house.

Besides, during these few days of rest, Lu Miao baked snacks and made delicious food to accompany the children.

During this time, she heard Tang Mei say that Xu Hongmei had called her home before, so she prepared a small gift and contacted Xu Hongmei to make an appointment for afternoon tea.

A few years ago, we talked about the topic of surplus books, and Xu Hongmei sorted them out this time.

However, Xu Hongmei felt a little embarrassed about this matter.

Because in recent years, publishing houses have accumulated about a thousand sets of various famous books and textbooks.

If we count by books, there are at least three thousand.

In the publishing house, these books are not many, but definitely not few. (End of this chapter)
