Age of Dreams

Krarov is an agricultural expert in Ukraine.

He graduated from the highest academy in Ukraine and has been dealing with agriculture for 30 years. He has changed from a young man to a middle-aged man.

Because he has a calm personality and can endure loneliness, he has been working in the front line of agriculture honestly for so many years, and he is already the leading agricultural expert in Ukraine.

What he is best at is the planting of rice, and then the planting of some vegetables.

In terms of rice, he is not only good at unique varieties such as Ukrainian triangular rice, but also has a profound research foundation for Russian varieties, Spanish varieties, and even Chinese, Vietnamese, and Thai rice varieties.

However, Ukraine's geographical environment is not suitable for tropical seeds, so he failed to apply those high-yielding rice seeds to Ukrainian rice.

But with decades of research, he has also made great achievements in the improvement of rice seeds in Ukraine. On the millions of acres of rice planted land under his management, the output has increased by 82% in the past 15 years, which can be called a feat excellence.

It is a pity that although Ukraine is a country based on agriculture, agriculture is not valued very much. Those government officials prefer simple and rough businesses that come in quickly and are the best for themselves.

Agricultural production is cumbersome and time-consuming, and it depends on whether God will show face, and every move is watched by people, so Ukrainian government officials, that is, support agricultural production normally, do not pay attention to it.

Even with agricultural experts like Krarov, the salary is only 2,700 euros per month, which is less than one-tenth of that of American experts.

Of course, Krarov is definitely considered a high-paying family in Ukraine. The average monthly salary in Ukraine is only 600 euros, so his life is also very good.

But all these life, after the financial crisis, slowly changed.

Ukraine's economy is inherently fragile. Agriculture can only be the foundation of a country, but it is definitely not the foundation of rejuvenation. So once their finances are impacted, various industries will also be affected.

This includes agriculture as well. European countries that have also been hit are not opposed to importing more food, but they are not as picky as before. They are also willing to buy African and Asian food, which is cheaper, not only like Ukraine. .

Compared with Asia and Africa, Ukraine's labor cost is definitely much worse.

In addition to the basic standard of living is high. More importantly, people’s rice is usually harvested twice a year, and those near the equator are harvested three times a year. Ukraine is originally located in a cold area, so one season a year is good, and the maximum output is one-third of others’ One, how do you compete with them?

Therefore, in the past two years, Ukraine's agricultural exports have been greatly affected. Even the peasants are miserable, let alone an agricultural expert like Krarov.

His company has been losing money for two years, so the salaries of experts have also been greatly reduced.

Krarov is one of the best batch of talents. But by December 2009, his salary was only 1,200 euros. Not even half of what it used to be.

Originally, he could still live on such a life, and his life would not be too bad, but unexpectedly, in December 2009, when the New Year was approaching, Huaguo's Fairy Farm Company suddenly entrusted his old A friend came to him and invited him to work in Huaguo.

Krarov is no stranger to China, and China has had many exchanges with Ukraine over the years. He also went to Huaguo to see the agricultural production there, but he never thought of going to Huaguo to work.

After all, he is also 56 years old. At such an age, I usually don't like a volatile life and prefer stability.

However, what Klarov didn't expect was that Fairy Farm gave him a salary of 50,000 euros a month, and 20 months of salary every year. If he made outstanding achievements, the bonus would be at least 1 million euros!

Such a high salary, even many experts in the United States, cannot get it. Even the boss of his current company will only get a little more than this in a year.

However, after thinking about it again and again, Krarov still refused, not only because he loved his family, but also because the contract had to be signed for 10 years, and he was very unwilling to live abroad for a full 10 years.

But Krarov's wife and children were moved. His wife was originally a housewife with no income. Her two sons and one daughter are now semi-unemployed, and their combined salary in a month is not as high as that of their father. person's salary.

Not only did Fairy Farm promise to give Krarov such a high salary, but they were also willing to let them go to work and live. Although the salary is not that high, it is at least two to three thousand euros. Such a generous salary immediately made the family feel that it is too generous up.

Moreover, the situation in Ukraine has been constantly changing in the past two years, and security issues are also very troublesome. They have long heard that Huaguo is very stable and treats foreigners very politely—well, this is because Krarov went to Huaguo and returned What I said last is a bit of a cocoon.

The company that Huaguo invited them to is not a small company without credit guarantee, but a subsidiary of Fairy Company!

Who doesn't know Fairy Company?

The company of Xiao Qi, the world's richest man, has assets worth trillions of dollars. It has always been known for its wealth and wealth. There is no need to worry about not fulfilling the promise after deceiving people!

There is also a fairy store in Ukraine. All Ukrainians who work there are the envy of their compatriots. In addition to working longer hours, the salary and benefits are top-notch in Ukraine. I don’t know how many people want to Want to be like them and work in the fairy store!

Being able to move away from this place where there are not many nostalgia, and to have a new and prosperous life, besides, there are at least dozens of Ukrainians working in Fairy Farm, and they will not feel lonely, so they are He has been lobbying all day and night with only one purpose, which is to get his father to accept the contract and go to work in Huaguo.

Yes.

The primary factor in the generous conditions that Fairy Farm gave to this family is naturally Krarov, an agricultural expert.

If he doesn't go, the good life of this family will not be realized!

In the end, Krarov had no choice but to succumb to the opinions of his family and signed a work contract with Fairy Farm. After cleaning up a bit, he came to Huaguo at the end of January after the New Year in 2010. He arrived at Fairy Farm in Caiyun agricultural base.

Fairy Farm has its own agricultural bases in China and Southeast Asia, but few people know that although Fairy Farm has established farms in Myanmar, Vietnam, Thailand and other places, in the final analysis, the focus of Fairy Farm's development is still on its own. domestic.

After all, no matter how good the outside is, it is other people's land. Although Fairy Farm is not afraid of any troubles from those local governments - when it comes to food security, it is absolutely impossible for the Huaguo government to let them mess around, but it is still not so reassuring.

Therefore, Caiyun, whose geographical environment is not much different from Southeast Asia, has become the key experimental base of Fairy Farm.

In the past two years, except for the post-earthquake reconstruction area that must undertake tasks, Fairy Farm has made great efforts in Caiyun.

Caiyun is a good place. It is like spring all year round, and it has a subtropical monsoon climate, which is very suitable for the growth of crops.

But Caiyun has one of the biggest disadvantages, that is, it is located on a plateau with very complicated terrain, and it is not suitable for farming for a long time.

In this regard, it is different from the countries in the Indochina Peninsula below.

Although Caiyun is next to Myanmar and Laos, a little further is Vietnam, and further down is Thailand, but it happens to be under the plateau. The geography is generally rainforest and plains, and there are rivers flowing down from the Lancang River on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. Irrigation, then agricultural production is really suitable.

But there is also one point, once Caiyun's places suitable for farming are transformed, it can at least be worth half of Myanmar or half of Thailand.

In that case, it is already very impressive, and it is more than enough to supply the entire area north of the Yangtze River.

The agriculture department is not unaware of such benefits, but Huaguo has been developing everywhere in recent years, and every department is asking for money. Agriculture, which has a long development cycle and requires a lot of investment, is naturally ranked first. behind.

The development of Caiyun here is at least three to five hundred billion yuan. After more than ten years of hard work, it has the capital to supply half of Huaguo.

Not to mention manpower and policy support, just looking at so much time and so much money invested is enough to make the government give up its mind, at least now there is no condition to complete it.

Fortunately, there is Xiao Qi, a super rich man who doesn't care about temporary gains and losses.

From the very beginning, when Xiao Qi and Caiyun cooperated, they only rented a part of the land and used it as a meat, fruit and vegetable base, and these fairy farms did not operate themselves for the time being, but hired the original farmers, at most A lot of effort has been made in the guidance and inspection of agricultural cultivation.

But as the cooperation deepened, Xiao Qi gradually revealed some of his big plan to Wang Zongsong, the deputy governor of Caiyun Province who he was familiar with.

Wang Zongsong was originally ranked fifth in the Caiyun Provincial Government, but due to Fairy Farm's investment in Caiyun Province in the past two years, his status has risen a lot, and he is expected to be the next executive vice governor.

But when he heard such a huge plan, he couldn't help but gasped, and hurriedly reported it to the governor and secretary, asking them to decide what to do. (to be continued ~^~)
