Chapter 631 The Boss Broke Down! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

January 19, 66, the 1th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Local military leaders traveled by car to the farm to offer their condolences and assistance.

The group was not in high spirits. The farms they had visited before were all in dire need of description.

It will probably take another year or two before it truly becomes a productive force.

While cultivated land in Yunnan Province can yield three harvests a year, the situation is less certain for newly reclaimed fields.

Although the climate here is mild and spring-like all year round, there are also many poisonous insects, snakes and ants, plus mosquitoes and flies everywhere, making the wild environment really harsh.

Although the region allocated certain supplies and the military frequently offered assistance, establishing a farm from scratch is no easy feat.

If they cannot be self-sufficient, they may not even have enough food to eat.

When the two military vehicles arrived at Hongxing Farm, they noticed that the situation was somewhat different.

From a distance, you can see many local villagers doing business outside the farm, which is quite rare in this sparsely populated area.

How did you know it was outside the farm?
This is because there is a wooden fence, about one meter tall, separating the inside from the outside!

The car arrived at the farm gate and was stopped by the guard post.

Once their identities were confirmed, the barrier was raised to allow them to pass!

"They've really put on a good show!"

The military region leaders saw this but were not entirely impressed.

However, when a jeep and a military truck entered the farm, the environment inside took them by surprise.

The road surface is a two-lane gravel road that has been clearly leveled.

It leads all the way to the farm office, which is the heart of the farm!
The site office, surprisingly, is a spacious courtyard with red bricks and black tiles arranged in a triangular shape, with a sizable gravel flat area in the middle.

Wu Aiguo, along with several staff members from the venue management office, went out to greet them.

"Director Wu, this place feels very novel!"

The military region leader bluntly asked, "You've only been in office for a little over three months, how did you manage to do that?"

Before Wu Aiguo could speak, he sighed, "The last time I came, I was leading soldiers to help reclaim the wasteland. There weren't even enough thatched huts for everyone!"

"Hehe, it's all thanks to the concerted efforts and hard work of everyone!"

Wu Aiguo chuckled. He was much darker than when he arrived, but his physique was more robust, clearly indicating that he often participated in manual labor.

He didn't bother with verbal explanations, but instead led the military leaders on a tour of the entire farm, and they understood everything.

The farm is quite large, probably exceeding three square kilometers.

As far as the eye can see, there are crisscrossing paddy fields and rice growing very well in them.

"Currently, the farm has reclaimed more than 3,300 mu of paddy fields. Based on a yield of 300 to 400 jin per mu, the harvest will be more than one million jin when the late rice matures!"

"In addition, there are more than 200 acres of vegetable fields. The farm has now achieved self-sufficiency in vegetables and can also supply a large number of fresh vegetables to the region!"

"In addition, we also built two ponds, a chicken farm, a duck farm, and a pig farm!"

"Currently, we can produce three to five hundred chicken and duck eggs every day, and provide hundreds of fresh chickens and ducks every month!"

He gave a detailed explanation, but the military region leaders next to him were completely dumbfounded.

Damn it, did he come to the wrong place?
Is this a farm that was established less than a year ago?

It's probably just as good as those well-established farms, isn't it?

Needless to say, such a significant change is inextricably linked to Director Wu from the capital. A talent, and not just any talent!

Then, an even more surprising scene unfolded for the military region leaders.

The farm's staff dormitories were all three-story stilted buildings.

Each stilted building can house five to ten single employees.

According to Wu Aiguo, once the farm is completely stable, they will start building multi-story staff dormitories, which will be divided into family dormitories and single dormitories.

If Wu Aiguo hadn't produced photos of the apartment-style dormitory at the Gulou Repair Factory as evidence, he would have really thought this guy was bragging.

Then, I went to a chicken and duck farm and a pig farm, and it was quite impressive.

"These must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"They were all borrowed from the region. When I was in Beijing, I planned a farm, which even received a major report from the Ministry of Agriculture!"

As he spoke, he produced the old newspaper, which was very convincing.

Wu Aiguo has no reason to lie. The chicken and duck farms and pig farms on this farm were indeed set up with money borrowed from the region.

Firstly, his rank was high enough; secondly, no one knew what connections he had in Beijing; and thirdly, there were newspaper reports about it.

After a quick confirmation over the phone, the local authorities gritted their teeth and borrowed money to help purchase chicks, ducklings, and piglets.

Fortunately, the farm's rudimentary mosquito coil workshop soon started generating revenue, which brought a sigh of relief to the local authorities.

The military region leaders were naturally unaware of these things, and Wu Aiguo wouldn't explain them too clearly.

After seeing the rudimentary mosquito coil workshop and the workshop where potato vermicelli was made by hand, I didn't know what to say.

"In fact, there is much more that farms can do!"

Wu Aiguo spoke eloquently: "There's no shortage of fruit here. Whether it's canned fruit or dried fruit, there's a very good market for them!"

"It's a pity that the farm is understaffed. If it had 150 employees, it could have done even better!"

That's a very Versailles-esque remark, but the military region leaders love to hear it.

Facts speak louder than words; the farm is right here, and Wu Aiguo's abilities are fully demonstrated on the farm.

"As long as the farm can indeed be taken over, the military region has plenty of people to introduce. The only concern is that the farm won't be able to accommodate everyone!"

"Haha, don't worry, boss. The farm is really nothing at its current size!"

"Even if there were ten times more people, I could still manage it!"

"Ideally, they should be honest, obedient, and hardworking. If they have a lot of bad habits and a bad temper, then don't bother with them!"

No joke, this place is sparsely populated with a mild climate and plenty of water, so there are so many things we can do here.

"If conditions allowed, he would have liked to set up a workshop on the farm where he could repair and assemble simple hand tractors!"

When the military leaders saw a beautiful, nearly 60% new Willys military jeep parked in front of the mosquito coil workshop's warehouse, they almost broke down in their defenses.

Do you want to be so exaggerated?
The car he rode in when he arrived wasn't as impressive as this Willys.

Facing the military region leader with a hostile expression, Wu Aiguo felt a little embarrassed. He touched his very short stubble and said helplessly, "The farm is too far from the county seat, at least fifty kilometers away!"

"Without a means of transportation, going back and forth would be too much trouble!"

"So, how did you get this car?"

"I traded it with some vermicelli noodles with those guys from Myanmar!"
