Early the next morning, Zhao Yi arrived at the airport, accompanied by Lin Hexia, and boarded the special plane that had not been used for a long time. Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar crew members, he even felt a little dazed.
These crew members are full-time staff. Even if Zhao Yi doesn't come, they will continue to receive wages, and their wages are higher than those of ordinary passenger aircraft crew members.
As most of the domestic business is on the right track, there will be fewer and fewer things that require him to handle on-site in person, and the frequency of use of special planes will naturally become less and less.
If it weren't for his own safety, he would have thought about renting out the plane. After all, it would be a waste to park it, so it would be better to generate income for himself.
As for changing it to an ordinary passenger plane, it is still quite difficult, because this special plane is specially built and is very different from ordinary passenger planes, and changing it over and over actually wastes more.
It doesn't matter which airline you fly with. Anyway, Zhao Yi paid for the money himself, and even for daily maintenance, etc., the airline you fly with can still make some money from it.
After bidding farewell to Lin Hexia, the special plane flew to Jiangxi soon and landed in Nanchang. This time to go to Xiaoyang County, there was no need to go through Jiujiang. Nanchang and Xiaoyang County were directly connected by the cross-lake bridge. The whole journey only took more than an hour, which was at least shortened. Half done.
After getting off the expressway, I saw industrial parks occupying a large area on both sides of the road. There are various factories inside, which provide supporting parts and components for industries in Jiujiang and Nanchang.
In addition, there are local specialty processing industries, mainly food-based, such as Xiaoyang County's most famous soybean ginseng, red fish, etc., which are local specialty foods, and the Poyang Lake fish processing industry.
Now Poyang Lake is also developing planned fish farming, which is no longer the original extensive model. Refined fish farming can not only increase fish production, but also protect local natural fish resources.
Xiaoyang County alone accounts for one-third of the water area of Poyang Lake. It has rich water resources of Poyang Lake. The development of aquatic product aquaculture is a good economic development idea.
After getting off the expressway and heading to Zhoujia Town, I passed by the county seat and saw that the urban construction in Xiaoyang County is now more prosperous than before. Pedestrians are coming and going on the road, and every household is in high spirits. It feels completely different from a few years ago. appearance.
At a glance through the car window, he saw that a small county town now has such a prosperous scene, which is not inferior to the previous life in 2010. He felt very gratified. Aren't these the goals he has worked hard to achieve over the years
It's just that the current Xiaoyang County has not undergone particularly detailed planning, and the urban construction is still extensive. In terms of overall aesthetics, it is still a bit poor, and it is actually a bit not in line with his taste.
But what does it matter? The road is taken step by step. Now China Housing Corporation has begun to extend its urban construction tentacles to the county level. With the participation of China Housing Corporation, the situation will be greatly improved.
However, the current residential housing in the county has not been greatly improved. The fastest growing is commercial buildings. There is no way. Every year commercial companies such as Shangtong Trading Company invest a lot of money into this field.
However, the residential housing sector has not been liberalized yet. This is a tacit agreement between Zhao Yi and the government. They are ready to completely hand over the housing improvement work to the China Housing Corporation. The government ensures a stable supply of land, while the China Housing Corporation must ensure that the cost of living is not too high. .
Now there is no need for the government to rely on land finance to obtain profits. Although not all places have good enterprises and industries, through the government's fiscal balance, overall development is relatively balanced.
It is precisely because the government has handed over the improvement of residential housing nationwide to the China Housing Corporation that the China Housing Corporation feels it has a heavy responsibility. In order to complete this goal as soon as possible, the progress must naturally be accelerated.
As for accelerating urbanization in our country and improving residents' living conditions, Zhao Yi naturally fully supports it. He invests a large amount of money in Chinese housing companies every year, and even has to raise money himself if he has other plans.
When the convoy drove into the country road, the road surface was also hardened, and the asphalt road was not much worse than the highway. Seeing this change, he felt even more satisfied.
This is only the second year that the country has comprehensively promoted the infrastructure construction plan. To achieve such results is already quite an achievement. If it were not for the slightly dilapidated houses scattered in the countryside, it would feel like we have returned to 2019.
When we returned to the town where the Zhou family lived, the pavement in the central block that used to be paved with stone slabs was now replaced by asphalt roads, and the shops on both sides had also changed from the previous wooden houses to three or four-story concrete buildings. Building.
When Zhao Yi and his entourage arrived at Zhou's house, it was just around noon. The Zhou family also knew that he would arrive home at about this time, so they did not hold a banquet and were all waiting for him.
When the car stopped, Zhou Jinyu ran out first, opened the door for Zhao Yi, and said in a reproachful tone: "You are so busy, you can't get home until the right time."
Zhao Yi didn't pay attention to Zhou Jinyu's words. Anyway, she was just a sharp-tongued person, but her words about going home made him feel warmer.
Zhao Yi stretched out his hand to rub her hair and said with a smile: "Why don't your brother come out to help get something?"
Zhou Jinyu didn't bring anything when he came back, almost empty-handed, and kept everything for Zhao Yi to bring back with him. If there weren't many cars, he really wouldn't be able to bring so many things.
"It's in the back." Zhou Jinyu said.
Then he shouted directly into the room: "Brother, why are you so grinding?"
As soon as she shouted out, Zhou Jinjue's wife came out and gestured to Zhao Yi with a smile. Maybe she basically knew Zhao Yi's identity now, so she was a little reserved when meeting Zhao Yi.
When Zhao Yi saw He Siyu like this, in order to avoid this embarrassment, he said directly: "Sister-in-law, you and Jin Yu should also take something back together. I can't move so much by myself."
Then he opened the trunk of the car, took out some light clothes and other things, and asked Zhou Jinyu and He Siyu to help take them back to the house. At this time, Zhou Jinjue also came over.
Later, Zhou Zhigang also came out to help and quickly moved all the things in the trunk of the car. Then Zhao Yi came to the kitchen and saw Wang Huilan taking out the vegetables from the steamer and preparing to serve them.
Seeing that Zhao Yi wanted to help serve the food on the table, Wang Huilan quickly said: "How can I ask you to do this as soon as I get off the car? Just call Zhou Jinyu over."
Wang Huilan still has a bit of an old tradition. Cooking tasks like this are usually done by women, and men should do their own things. This is what the saying goes, men are the master of the house and women are the master of the house.
In this case, Zhao Yi had no intention of helping. Zhou Jinyu called, followed by He Siyu. He Siyu was a new daughter-in-law and was not particularly proficient in these things. She still needed to learn more from her mother-in-law about dealing with people.
After Lele's noisy lunch, there was nothing going on at home, so Zhou Zhigang asked Zhou Jinjue and Zhao Yi to go out for a walk, saying that things had changed a lot now.
Originally, when Zhao Yi came here this time, he planned to go for a walk in the countryside to see how things were going. Zhou Jinyu saw that Zhao Yi and his brother were going out for a walk, and since they had nothing to do at home, they wanted to follow them.
Since Zhou Jinyu also followed, of course He Siyu also had to follow her husband. Just like that, the four of them plus the security personnel went out in a grand manner.
I don't know what the two ladies should follow. It's winter now. Although the sun has risen, the temperature is not high. It can only be said that it is not very cold.
However, in the south, homes may not necessarily be comfortable. After all, there is no heating, and the air is relatively humid. If the sun shines, it is indeed much stronger outside than inside.
The group of people came to the street. In fact, the main purpose was to let Zhao Yi take a look. The three of them came earlier than him. They probably looked at this short street several times.
When Zhao first took a look, his biggest impression was that there were a lot of neon signs on the street, and many stores began to use LED screens, which were very different from the simple wooden signs before.
These are all things brought from big cities. In the past, due to the small flow of people, small places like this were basically fixed, and not many people went to other places to see the world.
Last year, China Housing Corporation began to carry out larger-scale urbanization. In this small town and surrounding rural areas, many strong laborers moved to the city to work, bringing some of the business methods of big cities to this small town.
There was everything at home, and it was better than what was available outside. The four of them didn't have anything they wanted to buy, so they just walked around and looked around, and soon they arrived at the health center.
The director of the health center was Dr. Luo. Zhao Yi did not come back to celebrate the New Year last year, but asked Zhou Zhigang and his wife to help bring some gifts to Dr. Luo after the new year.
Now that he has transferred here, Zhao Yi plans to go in and say hello to Dr. Luo. The health center has a large courtyard with two ambulances parked in it. The main purpose is for emergency use by sick people in the surrounding rural areas.
The health center is actually not big. There are only 20 people in the whole hospital. Most of them are young medical staff who have just graduated, and some of them are here for internship.
According to the process of China Medical Company, new doctors must work in a grassroots clinic at the health center level for more than two years before they have the opportunity to be transferred to a county hospital. Fortunately, the salary is the same, and the environment is not particularly bad.
As soon as Zhao came in, he saw Dr. Luo talking to a patient's family member in his office. Zhao Yi said hello to Dr. Luo and then found an empty seat to sit down. After Dr. Luo finished his work, he stopped talking. Late.
After a while, Dr. Luo finished his work. Zhao Yi stood up. After chatting with Dr. Luo, they sat down and asked each other about their respective situations in the past two years.
Dr. Luo himself has not changed much. His family is very good, and his work is relatively smooth. He has no worries and his life is still enjoyable.
As for Zhao Yi's own situation, most of it was difficult to tell others. He only picked up some things he could talk about, mainly talking about busy things at work.
Zhao Yi had shown his medical skills in front of Dr. Luo before, making Dr. Luo think that he was engaged in medical care.
The last time Zhao Yi went public and shot a video, it caused a great response domestically and even internationally. Dr. Luo naturally saw the video, so he was very surprised.
Because Zhao Yi basically appears as a mathematician, which is completely different from the profession of a doctor, it is natural that the contrast is huge.
After talking here for a while, Zhao Yi planned to leave and agreed to go to his home to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year. This temporary visit was over.
After leaving the health center, everyone didn't know where to go, so they simply went home to get fishing rods and went fishing. Zhou Jinyu and He Siyu did not follow them. After all, for women, sitting there fishing in winter is not a wonderful thing. matter.
When they came back in the evening, Zhao Yi and Zhou Jinjue returned home with a bucket of fish. There were both crucian carp and mullet, as well as some silver carp, which is a relatively common fish here.
In his previous life, Zhao Yi's village was next to Poyang Lake. Basically, there were very few fishers. If you wanted to eat fish, you basically just lowered your net to catch fish in the lake, which was much more efficient than fishing.
The ability and habit of fishing were developed in this life. When he was in Prince Gong's Mansion, fishing had become one of his ways of leisure and entertainment, so his fishing skills were also developed.
"You two are quite impressive. You actually lost half the bucket." Zhou Jinyu took the fish bucket and pulled the fish inside and said.
"It's okay, mainly because there are a lot of fish in these wild ponds. Otherwise, how could we catch so many in half an afternoon," Zhao Yi said.
During the New Year's Day in previous lives, in order to ensure that the whole village could eat fish, the pond-draining model was basically adopted, and the water in the pond was drained or pumped clean.
This behavior usually occurs during the Chinese New Year, because the water in the Chinese New Year pond does not have much effect, and crops do not need to be irrigated in large areas.
Put clean ponds in, and when there is heavy rain next spring, they will basically be full again, ready to store water for summer crop irrigation in rural areas.
In hilly areas like this, summer crop irrigation basically relies on ponds scattered all over the place as irrigation water sources. Even when fields are assigned to households, there are regulations on which fields the pond water should be used for, and cannot be used by others at will. use.
This is done not only because water resources are relatively scarce in summer, but also because they are divided in advance to avoid conflicts over water sources. After all, water resources are one of the most important resources for agricultural production.
Even if Zhao Yi went to the countryside to fish this time, it was to see if the land contract from Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company had come here. If so, he would also take a look at how their high-standard farmland construction was going.
Although Xiaoyang County is located around Poyang Lake, it is not a plain. It is mostly hilly land. The Poyang Lake plain is basically on the Nanchang side. However, in Xiaoyang County, which is across the lake from Nanchang, the per capita cultivated land area is actually very large. few.
He clearly remembered that in his previous life, the cultivated land allocated to his family was only 6.8 points per capita and 3 points of land, and it could only be distributed after the girls in the village got married and extra fields were freed up.
In other words, the total land area per capita does not include one acre of farmland. It is impossible to get rich with such a small amount of land, and part of it must be paid agricultural taxes and retained.
In addition, a certain amount of grain needs to be sold in exchange for other supplies. The remaining grain can only keep rural people from starving to death. It is impossible to live a life of eating white rice.
In order to ensure that the food can be eaten until the harvest time of the next year, breakfast is porridge and lunch is rice. However, people should not eat very full, especially if there are growing children in the family. Basically, they have to eat in moderation. , otherwise no one else would have to eat.
In the evening, I get some vegetable leaves and cook them with some rice. If there is no rice, I can only cook them with sweet potatoes, which tastes much worse than rice.
It is precisely because he ate too much when he was a child that when he grew up, he disliked this mixed way of eating and sweet potatoes. After coming to the city, he basically did not eat roasted sweet potatoes and the like. They all suffered from psychological shadow.
Before, there was no other way. Apart from finding food rations from the land, there was no other way. This is why Zhao Yi had to spend a lot of money on the Chinese housing company.
Only when China Housing Corporation starts urbanization construction can it recruit a large number of people from rural areas to work in cities, provide them with jobs, and obtain output that far exceeds that of land.
This time he passed through some villages and saw that the children and wives in the villages were all wearing new clothes. Even his father, who was thoughtful, even bought some New Year toys for the children.
This was rarely seen before. The only thing that made children miss were not the toys and fireworks, but the meat that they rarely ate a few times throughout the year. This was the biggest New Year expectation for rural children at that time.
As for clothes, they are basically worn by older siblings and then worn by younger siblings. A piece of clothing can be worn for more than ten years after being repaired. It is impossible to get new clothes every year.
This happened in the countryside in the 1990s. Life in the countryside in the 1980s was even more difficult. At that time, Zhao Yi was young and did not have complete memories. But according to his mother's description, he basically relied on sweet potatoes to survive. It's even more luxurious.
So in this era, seeing the children, wives and elderly people in the village wearing new clothes is more satisfying than making billions and tens of billions himself.
Although many people's houses are still as dilapidated as before, the smiles on their faces are full of hope. In a few years, these houses may be replaced by bright high-rise buildings.
In addition, the children's complexion and physical condition are also important. This is to see whether the free nutritious lunch provided by the Chinese education company has achieved the desired effect.
In fact, our country's genetic height is not low, but due to nutritional problems, people born in the 1980s and before are generally not tall, while people born after 1995 are much taller than their parents.
But this time he took a closer look and found that children of the same age were basically much taller than children of the same age in his previous life, with stronger bodies and smarter minds.
The most obvious point is that in the previous life, because there was not much money to use daily chemical products, children generally suffered from diarrhea. Many people had to trim their hair to become bald, and there were more lice in their hair.
The hair quality of the children he saw this time was no different from the hair quality of the children when he traveled through time. He also did not find any children suffering from mumps or other common rural diseases.
Part of the credit for this goes to Chinese medical companies, which have developed many effective vaccine products. After vaccinating children, many diseases will naturally not occur.
As for cases like diarrhea, it is the work of Chinese education companies. Basically, children's hair is washed every three days, and the best products of P&G Daily Chemical Company are used.
Nowadays, life in rural areas has improved a lot compared to before, and many parents are also buying daily chemical products to improve the daily life of family members. This situation has completely disappeared.
As for the high-standard farmland construction plan of Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company, it has just begun here. Relevant agreements have basically been reached with various village collectives. Construction has not yet started, and it will not start until at least the next year.
However, he did look at the renderings erected outside the village committee office, and compared it with the places he had walked by, it really felt like two different worlds.
To be honest, if these farmlands are left to the farmers themselves, they basically can't make any money. But after they are handed over to Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company, not only do they not have to work so hard, but the benefits they get are no less than what they would have earned if they did it themselves.
After Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company contracted these lands, they were not used to grow food, but to grow crops with high value. Otherwise, they would not make any money at all, but would suffer huge losses.
The current domestic grain crop pattern, as mentioned before, Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company relies on offshore farms to grow pomegranate rice, replacing the current domestic staple food status.
Grain cultivation on land is basically the responsibility of China Grain Reserves. Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company itself is not involved in the land grain cultivation business, but focuses on solving the agricultural raw materials needed by residents’ vegetable baskets and industrial and pharmaceutical industries.
Many of the drugs produced by Chinese pharmaceutical companies require ingredients from Chinese herbal medicines, and these Chinese herbal medicines are provided by Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company, especially specially cultivated Chinese medicinal herbs, which are monopolized by Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company.
There are many others, such as the herbal daily chemical products developed by P&G Daily Chemical Company, many care products launched by Yadai Company, etc., you can see many Chinese herbal ingredients in them, not to mention other industrial raw materials.
Only the cultivation of such high-value crops can take care of the interests of all parties and enable Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company's strategy to be implemented. Otherwise, how could it have successfully obtained so much land.
However, the high cost of land is only temporary. When more and more rural people move to the city and the land contract expires, the cost will drop by more than half.
In addition, the government is indeed considering the cancellation of agricultural taxes proposed by Zhao Yi. If this area is removed, Tianji Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Company will have less land cost pressure. (End of chapter)
