Chapter 351 Huangnibao Yugu Township; Olympic Games Opening
Thinking about the GMO crisis that Tianyu No. 1 had encountered, the last trace of worry in Guo Yang's heart disappeared.
Although the last time was about seed industry and had nothing to do with the golden arowana, I was still upset and wanted to do it.
"I thought about it yesterday and it would be best to find a professional advertising company from outside." Guo Yang pondered and said, "If something goes wrong, we can just let them take the blame."
Qu Yang's eyes lit up and he said, "Boss, this is a good idea. I'll contact them right away."
Guo Yang reminded: "The timing must be appropriate."
"Well, I'll study it later."
"I don't worry about your work."
Qu Yang received the task and left. Guo Yang suddenly wanted to go to the countryside for an inspection and figured out a general route in his mind.
Then he asked Luo Xiu to drive, and then called Xie Shijie, "Let's go to the countryside and take a look at your territory."
"Now?"
"I just caught you off guard." Guo Yang scolded with a smile: "Hurry up, don't dawdle, I'm going downstairs."
"You really don't give me any time at all!"
"You can also make a phone call while you're downstairs."
"..."
Xie Shijie hurried downstairs and saw that his boss was already waiting there. He got into the car in a hurry, but his expression had calmed down.
"boss."
"What's wrong? Are you a little panicked?" Guo Yang joked, "Are you not ready for the scene? Do you want me to give you a little more time?"
"There is a problem." Xie Shijie admitted it and said, "Let's go. If you deal with me, I will deal with you."
Unexpectedly, the raid was so effective. In fact, Guo Yang didn't know where the problem was, but after some speculation, the most likely place was the two newly acquired plots of land.
"Let's go check out the two new plots of land. Let's go to the Taolai River middle reaches irrigation area first, and then go to Jinta."
Xie Shijie's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and Guo Yang noticed the change in his expression.
"It's a big problem?"
"Yes." Xie Shijie said truthfully, "I had some conflicts with the villagers and have been making trouble recently."
Guo Yang raised his eyebrows, "With the support of the city, there are still people who want to cause trouble?"
"It's the Yugu people." Xie Shijie sighed and said, "Huangnibao, an autonomous township, is more difficult to deal with. Some other villages also refuse to obey the higher authorities."
"Go and see."
Huangnibao Township is about 28 kilometers away from Suzhou City. The transportation is not very convenient, but there is definitely no problem with traffic.
After half an hour, we arrived at our destination and saw a flat and open saline-alkali beach.
Various unique forage grasses grow on the saline-alkali beach, including white thorn, reed, sedge, and ice grass, but the most eye-catching one is alfalfa with purple flowers.
At the end of the sight, there are some adobe houses, woolen tents, and of course, a small number of brick houses.
The SUV stopped beside a ditch.
Guo Yang took a look and from the surface it seemed that the saline-alkali environment here had been alleviated to a certain extent.
The clear Haizi Lake and the patches of alfalfa flowers.
If it weren't for the herds of cattle and sheep being driven away in the distance, the work here would certainly be worthy of praise.
Xie Shijie said: "This area is collectively called Dajiangou. The water flows northward, and the downstream is Xinhu Village under the jurisdiction of Yugu Township. To the east of Xinhu Village is Shazaoyuanzi Village, which is also the seat of the township government."
"There is also a saline-alkali beach to the east of the township government, and the conflicts are mainly concentrated in these two areas."
Guo Yang joked: "Did you notify the people in front to chase them away?"
"Yes."
"Let's go. It's no use hiding here. Take me around first and see if we can find a solution."
Guo Yang had a general understanding of the contradiction.
The city took the lead in transferring this saline-alkali beach to Muhe, and also signed a contract with the township. In theory, this saline-alkali beach should be closed for afforestation and grass cultivation.
However, the herdsmen let in their cattle and sheep.
It is indeed difficult to handle when it comes to ethnic minorities.
Yugu Township is the only ethnic minority township in Suzhou. Due to geographical factors, most of the land here is saline-alkali land, with low agricultural yields and low efficiency.
Therefore, the Yugur people are accustomed to grazing.
There are only more than 10,000 Yugur people in the whole country. In addition to the more than 10,000 people in Zhangye Sunan, there are nearly 2,000 people in Yugur Township, Jiuquan.
The township has more than 13 acres of land, of which except for several thousand acres of arable land and public welfare forest, the rest is nominally grassland.
But in reality, there are less than 20,000 acres of real grassland, and the rest are all saline-alkali marshes and deserts.
On the wasteland to the right of the township government, Guo Yang saw the scene he had seen in Jinta.
The vast expanse of white looks like snow, but in fact it is a saline-alkali land that all living things try to avoid, like a scar that has grown on the bone.
A ditch separates the farmland and the wasteland.
“In fact, when we first arrived, the Yugu people were very hospitable and even treated us to beef and mutton!”
"The alkali grass here makes the beef and mutton of Huangnibao mellow and has a very distinct taste. Many people from Suzhou District come here because of its reputation, and the supply is even insufficient to meet the demand."
"I didn't expect the relationship to become strained now."
Guo Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Have the people underground found out what the cause is? Can it be solved?"
"It can definitely be solved." Xie Shijie said, "It's mainly a matter of money."
"The rent hasn't been paid?"
"It was paid, it was definitely paid." Xie Shijie said repeatedly, "But it was transferred to the city's account. Yugu Township has too many historical debts for farmland water conservancy infrastructure, and the city has withheld part of it."
"Hmm?" Guo Yang frowned. "How could it be transferred to the city account? In the past, it was directly transferred to the township level."
Xie Shijie said awkwardly: "The municipal water affairs department has contacted the administration and finance departments..."
"You approved it?" Guo Yang interrupted directly, "In the end, it also depends on you to approve it. You are responsible for this matter. There are many troubles in other towns, right?"
"Yes, quite a few. There was a big flood here in 96. We suffered from the flood and then repaired the water conservancy facilities. Most of us are in debt." Xie Shijie said seriously, "I will solve this problem as soon as possible."
The atmosphere froze for a moment.
Guo Yang said in a deep voice: "Internal self-examination is necessary. Fines are not necessary, but self-reflection is necessary."
Xie Shijie nodded.
Unexpectedly, this sudden incident actually allowed Guo Yang to find out the problem.
Get in the car and continue to drive around.
Yugu Township is adjacent to Minghua Township of Sunan Yugu Autonomous Prefecture in the east.
There are large tracts of saline-alkali land between the two townships, but the majority of them are in the hands of Minghua Township, Sunan, while Sunan belongs to Zhangye.
Of the more than 13 mu of land in Yugu, about 10 mu has been transferred to Muhe. In addition to arable land, there are mu of public forest land planned by the city.
This year, Yugu Township has a afforestation task of more than 1400 acres. Part of it was completed in the spring, and the rest should have been completed in autumn.
But the villagers are now clearly irritated.
In the context of national unity, the city will definitely compromise and reduce the rent. This is Xie Shijie's idea for solving the problem.
Guo Yang did not comment.
Anyway, as long as the problem can be solved.
The area near Yugu belongs to the Taolai Nanhe River. There are less than two thousand people on more than 100,000 acres of land. The area is vast and sparsely populated, so it is impossible for Guo Yang to visit all of them.
In the middle reaches of the Taolai River irrigation area, a total of 600,000 mu of land was transferred to Muhe, with the land in the north and south rivers being roughly equal.
He didn't even think about crossing the river, but instead asked Luo Xiu to drive north directly to the Golden Pagoda.
I also took a quick look at the vegetables, flowers, soybeans, corn... At least from the outside, there was no problem with them.
The last stop is the alfalfa base.
This is also Muhe's specialty. Guo Yang has also seen it carefully. The current task of the Taolai River middle reaches irrigation area and the irrigation area along the mountain rivers is to cover the area with green trees, but the base here is related to the people who make a living.
Fortunately, I was not disappointed again.
The alfalfa fields reserved for seed are growing very lushly because they have not been trimmed. The flowers have already faded and the alfalfa seeds are about to grow full.
Guo Yang reminded him, "Since it is a seed field, you can mow it later. You don't have to sell the next crop this year."
Xie Shijie asked doubtfully: "That's a lot of losses."
"It's okay." Guo Yang didn't care. "The ones behind may not be sold."
"Hmm? The hay is selling very well this year!"
In fact, Xie Shijie believes that this year is the best year for the market. Domestic forage products are selling well both at home and abroad.
Domestic companies such as Yili and Mengniu are scrambling to get the products, and foreign island countries, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Southeast Asian countries and other countries are actively coming to ask for a share.
The shipment speed of forage grass is very fast, and it is even in short supply. The units and farmers who cooperate with Alfalfa are making a lot of money.
On the contrary, because Alfalfa focused on seed production, it did not fully enjoy the benefits brought by melamine and only earned some service fees through processing and trade.
Guo Yang said: "The current international environment is not good, and it is hard to say when exports will be affected."
Xie Shijie recalled it and it seemed that this was indeed the case when exporting.
Moreover, more and more migrant workers are returning to their hometowns, otherwise the towns and villages would not be in so much trouble.
Those who return to their hometown are all young and strong, and they are very brave when fighting.
"Row."
On the way back, we changed the route and went along the Taolai North River. The scenery there was not much different from that on the south bank, with large stretches of salt marshes.
"The effect of simply sowing seeds is a bit disappointing." Guo Yang looked out the window and said, "Not only is it heavy in salinity, but it's also very dry."
"That's right." Xie Shijie said, "In addition to the ditches, there is also groundwater gushing out from the salt marsh, but I heard that the amount of water has decreased in recent years."
Guo Yang pondered and said, "Hanhai kenaf and sea buckthorn can also be planted here."
"Ah."
After just a quick look for a day, Guo Yang felt that the situation was somewhat tricky.
After all, so many farmers are involved.
It seems that I can't just ignore it. At least I have to communicate with Qin Lijun secretly.
After communicating all the way back to the company, it was almost time to get off work. Guo Yang could only work overtime for a while, process documents, and then go to the cafeteria to have a bite to eat.
I went home, changed my equipment, got the ball, and walked slowly towards the park.
After just a short while, the employees from yesterday arrived.
I started playing in a team again. Overall, the performance was okay. I worked up a sweat, went home to wash up, turned on the computer, and at the same time I received a reply from Catherine.
Victor and his family have already arrived in Beijing and sent the hotel address, but the contact information has not been arranged yet.
At the same time, a question was asked.
"Guo, what are you going to play with us?"
"When will you come to the capital?"
Guo Yang was really stumped for a moment. Playing ball? Playing games? Neither seemed appropriate.
After thinking for a while, Guo Yang replied: "Let me show you the wildness of the West, and let you experience the Chinese tractors."
"As for the time to come to Beijing, it will be August 8th. There will be a basketball game on that day."
After sending the email, Guo Yang started playing the game again.
I recharged 1,000 yuan in coupons first.
Then I found out that it seems that I can’t directly use points to purchase gold coins now, and I can only buy them on trading websites.
Forget it, I'll just brush it by hand.
Thundering Ruins, Toxic Thundering Ruins... After playing for an hour, Guo Yang stopped playing because his fatigue was not fully recovered.
The damage is too low, the map clearing is too slow, and there is no gaming experience.
Guo Yang directly complained to Penguin Horse on QQ.
"If you don't even have an auction house, how can you expect players to spend money? How can you expect shareholders to make money?"
Penguin Horse replied with a string of ellipsis again in seconds.
I was even more speechless.
Is this guy really playing it?
Hey, people who work in agriculture also play games!
Penguin Horse: "How about I take you with my number?"
Guo Yang: "You play too?"
Penguin Horse: "Why don't you ask Lao Ding? For those of us who make games, being able to play games is a basic quality for making games."
Guo Yang thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.
Moreover, there are many wealthy people who like to play games.
Bill Gates, Ding Lei, Shi Yuzhu, Zuckerberg, Musk... and Lei Jun, work during the day and play games all night long.
"Let's do it another day. No need to play today. Let's go to sleep."
"Sure, send a message while you play."
After closing the chat page, Guo Yang opened the email again. Catherine had replied, and it seemed that she was also surfing the Internet in the hotel.
"We also came to watch the basketball game. Our whole family came here to see Nowitzki."
"It seems that China is in the same group as the German team!"
Guo Yang suddenly remembered that the reason why the men's basketball team was able to advance to the quarterfinals was because they defeated the German team in the group stage.
He also watched the game at that time and was very excited!
We can only observe a second of silence for our German friends.
……
August 8th.
When the whole country's attention was on the capital, Wei Guan from Tianhe's anti-counterfeiting team also appeared in the capital.
But he wasn't here to watch the Olympics.
But they are here to cause trouble.
According to the agreed address, Wei Guan came to an office building, but just looked at the door without going in. After returning to the car, he dialed a number.
"Mr. Wang, I'm here. See you in the parking lot. License plate number **"
"Okay, Mr. Wei, I'll be down right away." Wang Chenglin from Zanbo Marketing Management Consulting Company was in a good mood, as this was a big order introduced by a friend.
I jogged all the way to the parking lot and found an SUV with a Northwest license plate based on the license plate.
Knocked gently on the car window.
"Hello, Boss Wei."
Wei Guan nodded and said, "Let's talk in the car."
Wang Chenglin got in the car and asked hurriedly, "Boss Wei, what business do you want to discuss?"
"Golden Arowana knows, right?"
"I know. Hey, there has been a lot of publicity in Beijing during this period!" Wang Chenglin said, "Why, Mr. Wei is a Golden Arowana?"
Wei Guan shook his head.
Wang Chenglin asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"
"Help Jinlongyu promote the business."
“Ah?” Wang Chenglin became more and more confused. It was not Golden Arowana’s, but he was promoting Golden Arowana. What a good thing.
Wei Guan took out a bottle of King Dragon Fish soybean blended oil from the co-pilot seat, and then pointed to the ingredient list for Wang Chenglin to see.
“Do you know about genetically modified organisms?”
The GMO label on the bottle was a little small and blurry, and Wang Chenglin frowned.
"what do you mean?"
"Help promote this."
"This is not good."
"100."
Wang Chenglin immediately smiled happily, "Leave this little thing to us, we will take care of it professionally."
Wei Guan took out a printed A4 paper from the co-pilot seat and said, "Here is the reference material. Please extract the key points."
Wang Chenglin took it, scanned it quickly, and immediately felt terrified, "This... this might lead to jail time."
"We'll see the results after it's done. If it's good, there's still a balance of 100 million left." Wei Guan took out a black backpack and opened it, revealing bundles of red banknotes.
"This is a deposit. We won't sign a contract. No matter how you handle it, I only care about the results."
From the moment he saw the banknotes, Wang Chenglin's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
He was just working for the boss, and although he was the marketing director, his monthly salary was only around 8,000 yuan.
This money is enough for him to work hard for many years.
"Boss Wei, you are really good at judging people."
How can it not be accurate?
It took a lot of effort to select you.
……
"Boss Guo, you are really good at making trouble for me. Why do you have to personally deal with such a small matter in Huangnibao?"
"Nothing is trivial when it comes to land." Guo Yang said with a smile, "Leader, if Muhe improves the land, it will create a lot of jobs."
"Alright, alright, leave this to me, and go watch your Olympics with peace of mind."
"Okay." Guo Yang said, "I'll bring you some gifts later."
"Who cares?" Qin Lijun thought of something, "By the way, how about Jiahe take over the salt marshes in Minghua Township, Sunan?"
"Why is the leader still concerned about Zhangye's affairs?"
"That's all I said."
"I will in the future." Guo Yang said.
Minghua Township is located on the southwestern edge of the Badain Jaran Desert. The area is entirely saline-alkali land and is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Heihe River.
To the north and east are Zhangye Plateau, and to the north is the 50-acre soybean base.
If we want to encircle the Badain Jaran Desert together with the sea of sand, it makes sense to take over Minghua Township.
But we have to wait a while. The Alfalfa Engineering Department was separated and a group of elite soldiers were transferred to it. Xie Shijie couldn't cope with it.
At least the Shule River Basin issue must come to an end so that Niu Hulin and others can free up their hands, or newly trained talents can be in place.
After communicating the matter with Qin Lijun, Guo Yang went straight to the airport and set off for Beijing.
I arrived at the Beijing Airport around six in the afternoon, and received the ticket from Yang Cheng, who looked painful.
Feeling the strength in his hands, Guo Yang joked, "Are you still reluctant to give it up? Don't you need to keep an eye on futures?"
"Today is Friday." Yang Cheng said with a look of resentment: "I just came back by plane after the market closed in the morning."
"..."
Because he had been very busy, Guo Yang had not originally planned to join in the Olympic Games fun.
But with the incident with the golden arowana, and the visit from Victor's family and Fran, I decided to do it on impulse.
Moreover, in this uplifting era of the Olympics, I really want to witness it with my own eyes!
Forget it, let’s change the subject.
“How is the price of crude oil?”
"I sent you a message when the market closed. The closing price was $115.21 per barrel. The current account position is close to 1 lots, with an average opening price of $130 per barrel, and a profit of about $1.4 million."
"Okay, good, good."
It seems that the position building is still relatively conservative, but Guo Yang still praised it repeatedly, "The bonus this time is inevitable."
Yang Cheng still looked resentful.
Guo Yang said: "What's the matter? Is it so hard for me to ask you for a ticket?"
Yang Cheng: "How can I not feel bad? I had an appointment with my wife and kids to watch the opening ceremony together. Besides, this is such a rare opportunity!"
"..."
It feels weird to watch the Olympics with someone else’s wife and children.
"Um, Boss, Mr. Yang, please interrupt me." Luo Xiu said, "Tickets for the opening ceremony should be subject to ID verification. If you don't show up in person, the ticket will be invalid."
Yang Cheng suddenly looked delighted.
"Old Yang, I'll give it back to you." Guo Yang no longer had to worry about it, and then asked Luo Xiu: "The tickets for the game don't require an ID card, right?"
"Need not."
"Old Yang, get scalped tickets for two basketball games, the group stage between the national team and the Americans and Germans."
"Okay." Yang Cheng said, "But I'll have to trouble the boss to take me down now."
Originally, Yang Cheng was supposed to drive to pick them up, but now it's the other way around. However, considering Weiguang's profits, "You can drive yourself and go wherever you want."
On the way, Yang Cheng called his wife. The sweet and happy tone in his voice made Guo Yang and Luo Xiu silent all the way.
If you miss this year's opening ceremony, you may really regret it for the rest of your life.
When they arrived near the National Stadium, Guo Yang also saw Yang Cheng’s wife.
He has a dignified appearance and appears gentle and virtuous. The children are also close to him. No wonder robbing him of his ticket is more painful than being robbed.
In the evening, Guo Yang and Luo Xiu could only go back to the hotel to watch the opening ceremony.
In the past few months, I bought a villa in Xishan, Beijing, but I have never lived in it. It is still more convenient to stay in a hotel.
The stage of the "Bird's Nest" is full of changes in light and sound.
The countdown at the beginning was particularly shocking, with the night sky shining brightly, drums beating loudly, and hymns singing loudly.
Just the spirit and energy alone made Guo Yang, who had experienced the era of internal circulation and lying flat in later generations, feel awakened.
The historical and cultural stories such as flying apsaras, martial arts, the four great inventions, calligraphy, and the Silk Road are told in a leisurely manner, showing the splendid civilization of China for five thousand years and the development of modern science and technology with extremely high artistic expression.
This is what we call magnificent!
This is called magnanimity!
This is what a great country looks like!
We once thought that it was our honor to host an Olympic Games.
But now only Guo Yang knows that it is an honor for the Olympics to have such an event.
The four-hour opening ceremony was so satisfying that many foreign journalists even forgot to write news reports just to fully appreciate the performance.
That night, Guo Yang was overwhelmed with passion and then suffered from insomnia.
This is the best time!
However, the era of deflation more than a decade later has plunged businesses and individuals across society into endless internal competition.
Photovoltaic modules, which are still high-tech now, will only be sold for 70 or 80 cents per watt in the future, which makes the price so low that Europeans use photovoltaic modules as garden fences.
Guo Yang didn't know how to change, but he had to do it...
The next day, Guo Yang slept until noon, thinking that it was time to go find Victor's family.
After washing up and about to go out, Wei Guan called again.
A moment later, Guo Yang saw a post on Tianya Forum, "Jinlong Y, a fish that brings disaster to the country and the people!"
And today there happens to be a women's volleyball match sponsored by it.
