Rebirth to 90s: Start from Scratch

Chapter 540 Agricultural Development

After a while, Su Yuwei called Zhang Qianxiu again, mainly to tell Zhang Qianxiu’s bank account number, and the two of them had another phone call by the way. The phone bill was a bit expensive, so they directly charged the thousands of dollars in Su Yuwei’s phone. The call was lost, and finally was forced to hang up.

People have aspirations, and they have more energy to do everything.

The next day, Zhang Qianxiu asked how much grain there was in Valery’s warehouse. He didn’t expect that there were more than 8 million tons, which was more than one million tons more than the seven million tons that Zhang Qianxiu said.

Zhang Qianxiu immediately asked Valery to adjust the warehouses. One of the warehouses put more than one million tons of grain for reserve, and all the remaining seven million tons were given to the Americans.

In the afternoon, the Americans came over and signed a contract with Zhang Qianxiu. This contract was very particular. It was signed by a U.S. businessman and Zhang Qianxiu. The price was also the international market price. Later, he signed a contract for the purchase of shares. The purchase of shares was naturally bought by the U.S. businessman. Where did Zhang Qianxiu’s shares come from? The Americans gave it back and took it back.

Even if Zhang Qianxiu announces these things, they have nothing to do with the US official.

The U.S. people acted very quickly. They took over 7 million tons of grain on the same day, and Su Yuwei also called, and 10.308 million yuan was received. The money was deducted from the price of 3 million tons of grain. Originally it was 111 million, and that ten million was redeemed by them for the hostages.

The twenty-fifth month of the ninth month of the lunar calendar.

Zhang Qianxiu went to see Popov.

Popov has been looking forward to Zhang Qianxiu’s cooperation with himself these days, but Zhang Qianxiu is hiring people except for the renovation and repair work mentioned at the beginning, but there is no movement in other aspects. There is no increase in employment in Moko City, and no acquisition of enterprises has been carried out.

Popov knew that Zhang Qianxiu was going home to celebrate the Chinese New Year. The New Year holiday is very important to the Chinese people. New Year’s Eve is about to be two months away, so time is running out.

Seeing Zhang Qianxiu coming to find himself, Popov immediately stood up: “Mr. Zhang, I’m just about to find you.”

Zhang Qianxiu knew what Popov was looking for for himself, and said with a smile, “Mr. Popov, I came to you this time for two reasons.”

“The first is to apologize to you. I cannot provide you with employment in Moco this year. Starting from these two days, I will acquire enterprises from the Soviet Union on a large scale, and the enterprises I acquired may suspend operations. After January 15, 1992 , Will resume work in an all-round way, and I want to rectify these enterprises in an all-round way.”

Popo suddenly became anxious: “Mr. Zhang, it’s a bit too much for you to do this.”

Seeing Popov’s anxious and about to get angry, Zhang Qianxiu said calmly: “Mr. Popov, you don’t need to be so angry about this cooperation. It is indeed my dishonesty.”

“In order to express my apologies, I want to send a coal mine to Mr. Popov.”

As soon as Popov heard this, his face instantly became better: “Mr. Zhang, what do you mean by this?”

Zhang Qianxiu said: “Mr. Popov, I still want you to take care of my business in the country in the future. A coal mine is just a little bit of my care.”

“Considering that Mr. Popov does not operate this business, the coal mine can be placed under my company’s name at that time, and I will help Mr. Popov mine.”

“I will hand over all the data and accounts of this coal mine to Mr. Popov on time.”

Popov understood that if he operated in this way, he would just have to wait to make money. Zhang Qianxiu would definitely not make him lose money when he sent him to the coal mine.

As for how much you earn in the end, it’s just a question of how much.

However, Popov did not immediately agree, because what Zhang Qianxiu had to do had a very large impact on the stability of Moko City.

After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Popov felt that even if Zhang Qianxiu stopped work for two months, it was not unacceptable: “Mr. Zhang, although you are doing something that makes me a little unhappy and caught me off guard, your sincerity I see it, then do what you said.”

Zhang Qianxiu suddenly smiled: “Mr. Popov is really bold and can afford to put it down.”

“I’m here this time, there is one more thing I want to talk to Mr. Popov.”

“I want to publish some articles in well-known newspapers in the Soviet Union. I don’t care who the articles are signed. It’s better to be one or two or three people.”

“At that time, Pravda, Izvestia, and Industrial Economics will have articles published.”

“Publishing an article is two million yuan, and I don’t care how much Popov has spent.”

“There may be more articles, and there may be five or six articles in one day.”

For an article of two million, Popov is confident that one hundred thousand yuan will be done: “Okay, no problem.”

With the cooperation of newspapers, Popov has no opinion on Zhang Qianxiu’s failure to provide a job.

Zhang Qianxiu saw that things were about the same, and reminded him: “Mr. Popov, we may have more frequent fund exchanges in the next time. It is inconvenient to transfer funds directly to your account. If you give you cash, you will not Good harvest.”

“You still think of a way to register a company overseas. If our cooperation is reached, I will transfer the money to your company, so there will be no problem.”

Popov seriously considered it, and said: “I think so too. I will find someone to register a company overseas in the past few days.”

Zhang Qianxiu looked at the time and said, “Mr. Popov, it’s late, I have something to do, so I’ll leave.”

“By the way, the construction team will come to work the day after tomorrow. I will follow along on the first day. I will arrange a person in charge in the future. If you have any questions, just talk to the person in charge.”

Popov has absolutely no opinion on this: “Okay, these are trivial matters.”

Compared to their cooperation, this refurbishment of an office building is indeed a trivial matter, too small.

The twenty-sixth month of the ninth month of the lunar calendar.

Yuan Pengchi and Liang Junming returned, and they brought a team to most of the country of Su, and conducted a large-scale investigation of the country’s agriculture and machinery.

As soon as the two came back, they ran to find Zhang Qianxiu.

Yuan Pengchi sighed and said: “Qianxiu, domestic agriculture cannot be copied from the Soviet state. According to the degree of mechanization in the Soviet state, as you said, there will be a large number of people without jobs.”

“Let’s go to see those farms. A Nuo Da farm has more than a dozen households. In our country, that area can feed hundreds of households and thousands of households.”

Regarding this result, Zhang Qianxiu was not surprised at all: “Old Yuan, we have discussed this issue before we came here, which is actually nothing strange.”

“There are no surprises in the visit to the Soviet Union.”

Yuan Pengchi said: “It is true that Su’s research on rice is not as good as ours, but the research on corn and wheat is indeed far more than us.”

“I have discussed with dozens of experts and invited them to develop in our country.”

“In terms of remuneration, in my opinion, it is not very high. After all, they are foreign experts. People who leave their homes and go to our country to develop, it should be higher.”

Zhang Qianxiu asked, “Old Yuan promised most of their wages?”

Yuan Pengchi said: “One thousand meters, including food and accommodation. In our country, the standard is that if only the expert goes alone, one bedroom and one living room per person, if you take your family, two bedrooms and one living room to three bedrooms and one room. It mainly depends on whether they have children.”

“Qianxiu, the price is not high. Although it is much higher than the treatment of our experts, it is worth the money.”

“I talked with Junming, China is not suitable for developed agricultural mechanization at present, but we can develop abroad.”

“If it develops well, these experts can come in handy.”

“The experts I invited mainly have three directions, one is seed research, the other is farm management, and the third is agricultural machinery. With experts in these three areas, our agriculture has developed to the world and there is no problem in technology. The next thing to be solved is the problem of management, expansion and operation.”

Yuan Pengchi said so much, but in fact he was still afraid that Zhang Qianxiu would refuse.

Without any hesitation, Zhang Qianxiu nodded immediately: “Okay, then all invites to go back to China. Then I will arrange for someone to apply for temporary residence permits for them in China.”

“There is another question. I may also do agricultural development in the Soviet country, and I may still have to manage it domestically at that time.”

“Now our company can’t keep up with the development. After we go back, we must reorganize and make agriculture into a group, with research institutes and farms registered as subsidiaries.”

“Lao Liang, I have to think about it, you are in charge of the group, and Yuan Lao is solely responsible for the research.”

“In terms of funding, I will inject one billion Chinese yuan into the group. The requirements are very simple. Do a good job in research on rice, corn, millet, soybeans, potatoes and other major grains, as well as vegetable seeds.”

“In terms of development, Lao Liang, let’s not grab food from the peasants in the country. If there is suitable wasteland development, we can take over. We don’t want to contract a large amount of existing land. We will consider it when our industry develops.”

“So, for this billion, Lao Liang, you want to open the door to foreign agriculture for me. The first goal is Su, but basically it doesn’t cost much. I will take care of everything for you. You just need to take over.”

“Your task is to open up the agriculture of the second country. As for which country to choose, you can choose by yourself.”

Zhang Qianxiu’s words made Yuan Pengchi and Liang Junming both excited.

Yuan Pengchi said: “Qianxiu, if there is so much capital investment, I guarantee that in terms of seeds, there will be certain results next year, and there will definitely be significant results within three years.”

Liang Junming also said: “Boss Zhang, as long as the money arrives, even if I lose my life, I will develop the company.”

Zhang Qianxiu smiled softly and said, “Lao Liang and Yuan Lao, food is more important than the chip I want to study. Chips are about development, and food is about survival.”

“We can only talk about development if we survive. If one day, the survival of the people in our country is a problem, how can we talk about development?”

“At the same time, food is also a weapon. I have an idea, and that is to let the country take a stake in our company.

“The state’s shares will be controlled at 35-40%. Our company will not be nationalized and will not implement the state’s management. In the future, we will continue to follow the development path of private enterprises.”

“The two of you will definitely be the core of this company in the future. Lao Liang is in charge of the company’s business, which is about development; Yuan Lao is in charge of seed research, which is about the foundation.”

“Your salary will be mentioned again, but not too much. I will give you none of you 3% of the shares.”

Yuan Pengchi hurriedly said: “Qianxiu, the shares are fine. For such a large company, 1% of the shares are a huge sum of money. It is too inappropriate for us to take the shares again.”

Zhang Qianxiu smiled and said, “These 3% of the shares are not free. Within five years, you have no right to deal with these shares. After five years, the 3% of the shares will really belong to you.”

“If you don’t do well in the past five years, or if you lose the company, these shares are just a number, meaningless.

“If you let our company develop well within five years, and the company’s market value has doubled, giving you 3% of the shares is actually very cost-effective to me.”

Liang Junming never thought of anything wrong. Zhang Qianxiu wanted to give shares, but he still wanted it.

Yuan Pengchi still wants to speak, and Zhang Qianxiu has already said: “Old Yuan, don’t talk about this matter anymore. I have already considered it clearly, so let’s just say it.”

Yuan Pengchi opened his mouth, and finally nodded: “That’s fine, listen to you, but when you want to get these shares back, just say it.”

Zhang Qianxiu smiled softly: “No, even if you give 40% to the country and you take away 6%, I still have 54% of the shares in this company. I have the final say in this company.”

“I won’t let anyone enter the company again in the future.”

Zhang Qianxiu deliberately brought the country in. Although the country already has COFCO, China National Grain Storage is not developing very well abroad. I want to develop abroad in the future, and now I voluntarily give up so many shares to the country. Even if I grow bigger in the future, the country can tolerate it, and this company can also become a weapon in the hands of the country. Quan, no matter who is in charge of this company, there is no guts to dilute the country’s shares by means.

In this way, no matter how much Zhang Qianxiu’s descendants toss, as long as they don’t go too far, running this company will be much easier than others. After all, there is a country behind it.

Zhang Qianxiu’s share ratio is also set just right, and there is still 3% of the shares that can be surrendered. It is inevitable that there is a buffer of 3% of the shares.

Don’t underestimate this 3%. As long as the company grows and wants to acquire 1% of the shares in the level of one billion, several billion, or even tens of billions, most people can’t touch so much capital.
