Chen Mu knew that the Uighur girl was thin-skinned, so he didn't joke with her too much, and asked again: "Is the big sea buckthorn harvest coming?"
The Uighur girl glared at him: "Yes, you said you would wait for your return to reap the harvest. This has been a bit too long."
"Then let's organize the harvest tomorrow, get it back as soon as possible, and then sell it to the processing factory."
Chen Mu nodded.
The big sea buckthorn is harvested in August and September. If he hadn't gone to Mount K2, he should have harvested it two days earlier.
It's a bit late now, but it's okay.
He has not been to Yakashi village to check the situation of the orchard. He only asks the old Uighurs and Kurbanjiang to take care of it, and he does not know what is going on now.
If the harvest is good this year, he decided to expand the planting area of the orchard next year, so that the cultivation of large-fruited seabuckthorn will become an industry.
In the desert, no matter what kind of crops are planted, the harvest is not good, so the local farmers have very little income.
Now, many people have started to grow Cistanche because of planting trees, which is of course good.
But not everyone has the ability to contract land to plant trees on a large scale, and if everyone planted Cistanche deserticola, the industrial structure would be too single.
If something happens, such as the rat plague in Aqishan, it will have a great impact on the industry and the farmers.
Therefore, diversifying the industrial structure and allowing farmers to plant different things, such as sea buckthorn, jujube, calcium fruit, and licorice, can make the agricultural economy here have a healthy development.
These things were told to him by the Uighur girl, and he listened to them in his heart.
But for him, it is better to grow seabuckthorn with large fruits than cistanche, because the vitality value will be more.
Cistanche deserticola is a parasitic plant that absorbs the nutrition of Haloxylon, to put it bluntly, it absorbs the vitality of Haloxylon.
Any Haloxylon tree planted with Cistanche would contribute less vitality than ordinary Haloxylon trees. This was discovered by Chen Mu after a long period of observation.
Because of this, he no longer expands the area where Cistanche is planted.
Anyway, he can no longer rely on this to make money, and the planting area of cistanche in the forest farm is already large enough.
Instead of spending more manpower and material resources to grow Cistanche, it is better to plant a variety of other fruit trees, and the harvested vitality will be more.
After talking about the stall, he went to Muya Forestry again. Chen Mu turned to the female doctor and asked, "How's the sales of saplings these days?"
"Very good, all of our Haloxylon seedlings have been sold, and the next three months are all booked, and the production capacity still needs to be expanded."
"However, the most gratifying thing is that the sales of our other several saplings are also expanding. The red willow is the best seller, followed by flower sticks and seabuckthorn. According to what you said, only half of the amount of large fruit seabuckthorn is sold, and the rest are kept. .”
"I think we still need to expand production capacity. I have already discussed with Manager Li and the other five to let them expand the nursery land, which is twice the original size. They are already doing it, and it is estimated that they will be able to use it next season..."
The female doctor "reported" the company's situation in an orderly manner, basically using four words to describe it, that is "thriving".
After reporting on the company's excellent performance for a while, the female doctor paused for a while, and then began to talk about problems, acting very professionally.
"Now the biggest problem of our company's development... um, or the biggest hidden danger, has appeared. The location here is too far away, and our manpower is insufficient."
"Naturally, Daofa has not started yet, but if we really want to start spreading the stalls next year, we really don't have enough people, which is very embarrassing."
"So I think that in our company, we can let go of the nursery business and stop expanding. We can use the outsourcing method with Manager Li and the others to gradually decentralize the nursery business and let other people do it for us. The problem will naturally be passed on to them.”
"Of course, this is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. No matter what we do in the future, we still lack people here. This must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise we will have to move the company headquarters to a place with a lot of people..."
The problem of migrant workers has always been a shortcoming here, and Chen Mu has been troubled by this matter for a long time.
Before, because there were too many things, he could just get by, and he didn't think of any good solution. Now that the stall is bigger, the problem is getting bigger and bigger. It's time to make up his mind and find a way to solve it completely.
After thinking about it, he asked the female doctor, "What do you think if we recruit workers on a large scale?"
"Recruitment?"
The female doctor looked at him and asked, "How to recruit workers?"
Chen Mu said: "Build a house as a dormitory, and find someone to work... Well, if you pay a little more, do you think someone will come?"
The female doctor thought for a while and said, "It depends on how much the salary is."
After a slight pause, she added: "If the salary is high, then the salaries of our local villagers must also be considered. This expense is not small."
This is the truth.
As the saying goes, don't worry about scarcity but inequality.
Some things must be leveled with a bowl of water, otherwise conflicts will easily arise.
Moreover, the villagers have always been the ones who supported him the most, and they couldn't treat outsiders better. It would be cold-hearted to compare them.
But Chen Mu doesn't care about money, what he cares about is vitality.
In fact, there is another kind of thinking. With the vitality value, he will earn more money, and the investment is rewarded. This is a virtuous circle.
so-
After thinking for a while, Chen Mu nodded and said, "I asked the watchmen of the well houses on the desert road before. They probably provide food and lodging. Each person earns 2,000 yuan a month, and 5,000 yuan for the spouse. Basic recruitment, do you think it will work?"
Chen Mu had entered the desert road twice before, one was to follow Pazile to the south of Jiangqi Province, and the other was to drive into Kunlun by himself, passing through the desert road both times.
He had talked with some of the watchmen in the well house, and knowing their income, this matter inspired him a lot, and he had long thought in his heart that he might be able to recruit people according to this.
The female doctor also knew the caretaker of the well room, and after pondering for a while, she said: "The work in the well room on the desert highway is relatively light, and some older couples would be willing to go. We have more work here, and the salary is slightly higher." Just do it."
Chen Mu thought for a while and said, "Then it will be 3,000 per person per month."
In fact, he now recruits villagers to work in the forest farm, and each person costs 80 yuan a day, which is more than 2,000 yuan a month.
Simply unify the high salary, and then include room and board, it will be regarded as the company's welfare, and it will be based on this in the future.
Although it seems that the company's future expenses will become larger and the labor cost will increase significantly, but if the problem of migrant workers can be completely solved by biting one's teeth, it is actually nothing.
