silent farm

Chapter 76 Li Sheng's Cunning

It is impossible to keep food in stock all the time.No matter how well the grain is preserved, it will become low-quality stale grain in three to four years.The value becomes very low, maybe it can only be sold to feed mills as raw materials, and of course it loses the value of continuing inventory.Therefore, if the sales of Silent Farm continue to fail, the farm must build a granary for at least three consecutive years, or build a warehouse that can store the total grain output for three years at one time.

Probably no farm would like that to happen.Li Sheng is not a fool, of course he would not be willing to do that.

He asked Zhang Feng again: "Old Zhang, what's your opinion?"

"Boss, if you have sufficient funds, I think you can double the warehouse capacity, and I also think that the farm needs to build other warehouses." He paused and said. "For example, green manure. There are still not enough warehouses to store dried green manure. In addition, I suggest building some warehouses to store dry pasture."

Cattle on the pasture do not need to use dry pasture for the time being.But some items still need to be used, such as the medium for raising maggots and mushrooms, all need to use dry pasture.The half-year rainy season means that the farm will not be able to collect dry pasture for half a year. The farm really needs to build some warehouses to store dry pasture.

Li Sheng nodded and said, "What kind of warehouse do you need? Make a plan. When the weather is right, we will find an engineering team. In addition, I think more granaries can be built. If the food is not full, you can also store other things. "

The other three nodded and did not express any objection.

Li Sheng pondered for a while, then asked: "Also, what do you think, how about we donate some food?"

"Donation?" Zhang Feng was taken aback. "Boss, are you planning to reduce some inventory?"

"Then donate to who?" Thomas asked another question.

Anthony was thoughtful, but did not speak.

Li Sheng said with a smile: "Even if we decide to build a granary, we may not be able to start construction before the rice is harvested due to weather problems. And our storage capacity is no longer enough to hold the estimated rice production this time. There will always be a part of the grain There will be nowhere to put them. The only thing left to do is donate them or let them rot.”

"If we donate again at that time, it seems that we are forced by reality out of helplessness. We might as well take the initiative. Now that some countries in Asia are experiencing food shortages due to the weather, we can get a good reputation for donating at this time."

Zhang Feng nodded, feeling that Li Sheng's consideration was very reasonable.Giving charcoal in the snow is better than icing on the cake.

"If the donation is made to Asia, will the people in Brazil have a bad opinion of the farm?" Anthony said after thinking for a while. "After all, we are in Brazil now."

"Can't donate to Brazil," Thomas said to Anthony. "Brazil has no obvious difficulties now. If we donate this time, will we donate in the future?"

"Venezuela." Zhang Feng said suddenly. "I heard that Venezuela's current food situation is very tight, and the domestic economic situation is also very poor. There is no foreign exchange to import food. Maybe we can donate part of the food to them."

"Venezuela should be able to. Although the relationship between the two countries was at a standstill due to the impeachment of the president last time, it has eased a lot now. The Brazilian government should not obstruct it. In addition, I think it can be donated to African countries." Anthony nodded. .

Li Sheng thought for a while and said, "Now we have 84 tons of grain. I plan to keep only 30 tons. The rest will be donated." He paused, and then said. "Pakistan, I intend to donate 20 tons, and Venezuela can donate 10 tons. For the rest, Anthony and Thomas will help select the most qualified countries to donate."

Why is Pakistan the most?This is his selfishness.Most of the donations will be made to Pakistan. One reason is that the food shortage in South Asia has recently attracted worldwide attention, and donations from farms will get a greater return.Secondly, he feels at ease to donate food to this country.And he intends to donate a large amount to Venezuela because it is a South American country. He thinks it should be able to increase a lot of impression points for Silent Farm in South America.

"Iraq and Syria, they also need food." Thomas said immediately.

Li Sheng nodded, the Middle East countries are indeed a market that needs to be courted.Except for Saudi Arabia and Egypt, the food self-sufficiency rate of many countries there is not very high, and many countries there are quite rich.If you can open that market, it will be very helpful for the farm's grain sales.

"African countries are easy to find. They are affected by the climate and domestic politics, and there are often food shortages." Anthony said.

The issue of food security in Africa has always been one of the focuses of the world. If you donate to them, you should also win some topics.

As long as he can gain a good reputation, Li Sheng doesn't care who the food is donated to: "In short, the remaining 14 tons quota is up to you to arrange."

Zhang Feng asked a question: "But boss, are you planning to donate in the name of the farm? Will there be any trouble?"

Li Sheng had already thought about this issue. He said with a smile: "We just need to let people know that we are the ones who provide the food. If the Brazilian government wants to intervene, we have no objection."

He said and looked at Anthony: "Anthony, the interview with Global Channel will be finalized as soon as possible. We can't do the donation quietly."

"clear."

"That's it. If there is nothing else, I will go."

"Wait a minute, boss." Zhang Feng called to stop him.

"What else is there for Zhang?"

Zhang Feng hesitated for a moment and said: "I don't know if the boss has already planned this matter. But I think you need to find some professional people to manage the fish farmed in those small lakes. Our people don't have this aspect. experience of."

Although many common species are cultivated in those lakes, there is no aquaculture at all inland because of the rich fish in the Amazon Basin.There is also no aquaculture person on the farm.What's more, there are sturgeon in the reservoir.

According to market value, the most important output of sturgeon is not their meat, but roe.For this thing, the people on the farm know nothing about it.

If Zhang Feng didn't say anything, he would have forgotten about it.Speaking of which, those fish have been raised in the lake for almost a year.Many of the fish that were taken out at the beginning were big fish, and some small fish have not been put in this year.And without rivers, freshwater fish can rarely reproduce. He wants to make the lake produce every year, so he needs to put some small fish into it every year.Especially those fish that take years to harvest.

He thought for a while and said, "Old Zhang, you should take care of this matter and find a few talents from China who understand this field. People in farming and processing are needed. It doesn't matter if there are more people, and it doesn't matter if the salary is higher. But It has to be professional."

Zhang Feng hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't have any friends in this field. If I recruit directly, it's difficult to determine the ability of the other party."

Li Sheng said indifferently, "The trial period is three months."

Hearing what he said, Zhang Feng had no choice but to say: "Okay, I will write it down."

"Anything else?"

Zhang Feng said: "I heard from Lao Ding that the experiment of the new pig raising model has preliminary results. It will be concluded in two days. If you are free, I will ask him to report to you."

"There is a result so soon?" Li Sheng was a little surprised.Before Zhang Feng told him that the pig raising experiment had been done for less than two months.

Zhang Feng said with a smile: "In modern pig farms, pigs can be slaughtered in as little as five months. Xiaoding's experiment does not need to wait until the pigs are slaughtered to be sure. And this is only a preliminary result. Listen to Xiao Ma, such a Whether the model can be used in practice still needs some tests. The most important indicator is the quality of the pigs raised. However, I heard that judging from the current situation, the results are quite satisfactory."

Li Sheng nodded and said, "Then let him come to me."

"Okay. I'll let him know."

Thomas would say: "Li, there are doctors and medicines on the farm now, but the doctors are not satisfied with the place of diagnosis and treatment. They proposed to buy some commonly used medical equipment. But they are also investigating now, hoping to formulate a system according to our actual needs. Procurement plan. Let me mention it to you first."

"I'll keep this in mind." Isn't it just a matter of money?Things that money can solve are not things at all.

See all with no other issues.After Li Sheng left the office, he saw that it was still early and he didn't want to go back to the farm in the hilly area for the time being, so he planned to go around the farm.

But he just walked out of the management area, and Chaxi, who was playing happily, immediately asked Tiara to stop the swing, and then ran over and said loudly: "Li, play with me~!"

Li Sheng knelt down and patted her little head and said, "You play with Tia, I'm going to check it out."

"What is an inspection?"

"The inspection is..." In fact, it is... how should I say this?The inspectors actually move their mouths and make people run and break their legs.But can this be explained to a five-year-old child?

"Are you going to play? I'm going~"

"Okay." Li Sheng felt that there was nothing wrong with what she said.Tourism can be an investigation, but why can’t inspection be fun?Besides, his so-called inspection is really similar to playing.

He glanced at Tia who also walked over quickly, needless to say, this girl is also going.He went to the office again, talked to Anthony, and then took two beauties, one big and one small, for a ride.
