Resource Tycoon Reborn

After sending Chang Chuanzhe and his party away, Fang Mingyuan turned around and his face turned gloomy. Why did he forget such a big event? If Chang Chuanzhe and the others hadn't talked about it today, it could be said that

He was so forgetful. Moreover, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter might not be simple. If there is a drought in Caiyun Province, will other provinces in the country be fine?

In any case, in his previous life, he had been living in the capital as an adult. Although he lived in Haizhuang Town, Pingchuan, when he was a child, his family did not engage in farming, and he had no relatives in the family who were farmers, so he was not sensitive to droughts or anything like that.

, I can remember that there was a severe drought in Caiyun Province. That is because Caiyun Province was said to have been in drought for four consecutive years at that time, which caused heavy damage to the local economy. Not only farmers had difficulty in drinking water, but even the cities in Caiyun Province were also facing water difficulties.

, which attracted the attention of the world.

However... even if he knew that Caiyun Province would face continuous severe drought in the future, what else could he do besides donating a batch of materials and funds to the disaster area? He couldn't go to Su Huandong and tell him that Caiyun Province might have a drought in the future.

There is a continuous severe drought. The capital should be prepared in advance, right? Moreover, some things can only be done one at a time, and doing too much will definitely make people jealous. Even if no one dares to treat him as a guinea pig now, if he becomes a

Even if you want to die, you will die! Therefore, even if you want to help someone, you must do it in a low-key manner.

But Fang Mingyuan feels that this is another opportunity. In the next few years, life in Caiyun Province will definitely be difficult. It is also an economic crisis and a severe drought. It can be imagined that even people's daily water supply cannot be guaranteed.

, production water is probably even more tense. During this period, Caiyun Province’s demand for funds cannot be accurately described as “thirsty”. This is undoubtedly an opportunity for the Fang family’s funds to invest in it. By then, whether it is Caiyun Province

The government, or the local power in Caiyun Province, is willing to resist the entry of the Fang family's funds, but is unable to implement it! If done well, this place can become a new province within the scope of influence of the Fang family and the Su family in the future!

Su Aijun wants to promote the domestic reform process. If he only relies on him and the Fang family, it is a fantasy. Even if he is tired and vomits blood, it will not be possible. Therefore, he must unite like-minded comrades as much as possible, and those who are willing to

Those who disagree with each other cannot be ignored. Moreover, these wealthy provinces in the country have long been divided up. The Fang family's commercial power often has to go through some troubles to enter these provinces, and even more difficult.

Don't talk about "inserting" important cadres. Although Caiyun Province's economic level is not ranked among the top provinces in the country, if it is ranked at the top, it will not be Fang Mingyuan's turn to worry about it.

"Mosquito legs are also meat!" Fang Mingyuan murmured to himself.

In the evening, Fang Mingyuan, who was accompanied by the leaders of Qingshan Province to inspect the FAW Group Company and returned from a dinner, threw himself on the sofa and made a pleasant sound. If possible, he really didn't like to participate in this kind of social interaction.

The activity was too tiring, and it only lasted for more than half a day. Now he was lying on the sofa, not even wanting to raise his head. His attributes of being a semi-otaku would probably never change in his lifetime.

Angelina did not accompany him to today's event, but stayed in the villa. Fang Mingyuan left a task for her. Angelina sat down on the sofa and put Fang Mingyuan's head on her lap.

Gently massage his brain.

"Are there any results?" Fang Mingyuan asked with his eyes closed.

"Well, judging from the information currently available, it is not clear whether Caiyun Province will face the threat of severe drought. However, there are currently fifteen provinces and cities in the country experiencing droughts of varying degrees, including Yanxing Province, Shanxi Province

The winter wheat areas in eight provinces, including Western Province, Central Plains Province, and Qinxi Province, account for 96% of the country's drought-stricken area!" Angelina said softly.

"How much?" Fang Mingyuan immediately opened his eyes. He wondered if he heard it wrong. Such a large area, and Qinxi Province was also affected by drought?

"Winter wheat areas are suffering from large-scale drought, accounting for the vast majority of the country's drought-stricken areas. Since last winter, most of North China, most of northwest China, most of the Huanghuai River and some areas of the Yangtze and Huaihe River areas have had more than 80 consecutive days without rain or snow.

It lasted more than 100 days in some areas. According to the evaluation of the meteorological department, it is a dry period that only occurs once in 30 to 50 years. In addition, after the onset of winter, the temperature in these areas is generally two to four degrees higher than the normal temperature, and the water in the soil evaporates seriously.

." Angelina said.

"So serious!" Fang Mingyuan closed his eyes again and said with a wry smile, "Uncle Su didn't even mention it during the Chinese New Year."

"Qinxi Province is better. In the first few years of Secretary Su's administration, special funds were allocated for most of the reservoirs, dams and irrigation projects in the province to be repaired to varying degrees, and some were newly repaired. It may be that he wanted to

After the Chinese New Year, there will be more rain and the drought will be alleviated." Angelina said softly, "Besides, how busy are you now? Agriculture is not the focus of the Fang family's development.

What else can he do besides asking for donations? Is it possible that you can also make it rain?"

Fang Mingyuan smiled bitterly. Yes, even if Su Aijun told himself, all he could do was to support him financially, and not too much. Otherwise, Shanxi Province, Yanxing Province, and even Qingshan Province

What should I do? Besides, after this series of investments, the funds in my hands are not unlimited, let alone printing money like the government. The construction of water conservancy projects is also a bottomless pit, and any amount of money can be thrown into it.

Moreover, many domestic reservoirs, dams, and irrigation projects were built in the two decades after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The technical level at that time determined their service life. Now, after decades of ups and downs, these projects

Most of them are dilapidated, and the newly constructed projects were excessively biased towards economic interests in hydropower, rather than being built for agricultural irrigation. Especially after the reform of reservoir management, economic contracting was also implemented for reservoirs, and the economic responsibility of reservoir managers

The benefits directly depend on the power generation of the reservoir dam project.

Under natural conditions, even if there is no rainfall, unless there is a severe drought throughout the country, there can still be water in the rivers. This water comes from the upper reaches of the rivers and is supplemented by groundwater. Nowadays, the water in these rivers is divided into one level and one level.

Level of reservoir control, if the reservoir does not release water, there will be no water in the river, and naturally there will be no water in the irrigation ditches everywhere. The reservoir controls the flow of the river, and the river water no longer flows according to natural laws, but according to the economic interests of the reservoir manager

flow.

If you want to change this status quo, unless the government is determined to change it, too many interests will be affected.

"By the way, Mingyuan, Luo Jin, the chairman of Longjiang International Trade Group Company, has arrived in Xinjing and will call in the afternoon to ask about a suitable time to meet." Angelina whispered, "I almost forgot."

"Is Luo Jin here?" Fang Mingyuan sat up immediately, looked at his watch and said, "Ask if he is asleep. If not, I will go over right now."

Luo Jin was not asleep yet, so of course he could not wait for Fang Mingyuan to pass, but rushed over.

"Brother Luo, I'm sorry for having you come here so late." Fang Mingyuan welcomed him in at the door of the villa and said with a smile.

"Young Master Fang is too polite to say that. He doesn't treat me as one of his own!" Luo Jin said with a deliberately serious face, "Should I listen to you on the contrary?"

Ranked among the top private entrepreneurs, Luo Jin’s gratitude to Fang Mingyuan is beyond words. Moreover, Fang Capital is still the largest shareholder of Longjiang International Trading Group Company, accounting for 4%.

What about the nineteen shares?

Fang Mingyuan laughed and said: "Brother Luo, I want you to come here because I have something to tell you face to face. Russia has relented and allowed us to lease land in Siberia for farming on a large scale. I really can't get away with the specific matters.

If you leave, I can only entrust your plenipotentiary to go to Russia and negotiate with them."

"Have you let go?" Although Luo Jin had guessed that Russia might have achieved a breakthrough before he came, he still couldn't suppress the surprise in his heart when he heard Fang Mingyuan say it. Although people from China now go to Russia to lease land for farming,

It's nothing new, but it's usually relatively small in scale, and there are many restrictions from local people. It's far from the ideal situation in his mind.

"Well, I finally let go." Fang Mingyuan could understand Luo Jin's mood and sighed. There are too many restrictions on the development of agriculture in the country. Although large-scale operations have also appeared, the most troublesome thing is land leasing.

Expenses are constantly rising, and the prices of necessary production necessities such as seeds, fertilizers, and machinery are also rising. This makes leasing land for large-scale farming more and more expensive. After a busy year, the products are in line with the international market.

Compared with the prices of agricultural crops, they are really not competitive. In contrast, although the land in Siberia, Russia can only be harvested once a year, because the land price is very cheap, there is still a considerable opportunity for large-scale production.

Market competitiveness.

"Brother Luo, there are certain risks in farming in Russia. You can't be careless." Fang Mingyuan warned. Agricultural production depends on the weather no matter which country it is in. Farming in Russia will inevitably encounter droughts and floods.

Category I natural disasters. Although the Russian government also provides corresponding disaster compensation and insurance mechanisms, the compensation capacity is not very strong. In addition, Russia does not have a domestic "minimum purchase price" mechanism for grain procurement, and Russian locals

They may not necessarily be friendly to the Chinese people, so the risks involved in farming in Russia are much greater than in China.

"Young Master Fang, go to Russia to farm, open a big farm, become a big landowner, and tell the guests that when you stand here, everything you can see is on my land.

It's an idea I had a long time ago." Luo Jin said with a smile, "In the past few years, I have been asking about the situation in Russia. If I rented a hundred hectares or something in the past, it would not be a problem at all, but such a small thing

It’s so noisy that it really doesn’t arouse my interest.”

Fang Mingyuan smiled and said: "Let's talk carefully and try to get hundreds of thousands or millions of hectares of farmland back."

"Hiss..." Luo Jin took a breath of cold air. Ten thousand hectares is one hundred square kilometers. Is Fang Mingyuan joking or serious?

"The current land lease in Russia is only one hundred rubles per hectare per year. Based on the exchange rate between rubles and US dollars, it is less than four US dollars per year. Since Longjiang International Trading Group Company wants to do something, it should do it in a big way, otherwise it will not be able to let Qin Chuan down.

Samsung Motors Group Company's contribution. I am counting on Longjiang International Trading Group Company to make a lot of money to subsidize Qinchuan Samsung Motors Group Company." Fang Mingyuan patted him on the shoulder and said meaningfully.

"What conditions did Lao Maozi put forward?" Luo Jin asked, and he said that Lao Maozi was not so kind-hearted. It was obvious that Qinchuan Samsung Automobile Group Co., Ltd. had made some exchange with the Russian government, and the Russian government had made a deal with Longjiang International.

The trading group company has let go of the matter of leasing land across the river.

"It's nothing. Qinchuan Samsung Automobile Group Co., Ltd. is negotiating with the Russian side to acquire the Izhevsk automobile manufacturing plant. The plant's debt exceeds 1.3 billion rubles and there are more than 6,000 workers. The Russian side hopes that we will not

Layoffs." Fang Mingyuan said, "This factory is currently losing five to six million US dollars every month because it is an assembly plant and more than half of its spare parts need to be imported from overseas. As you know, the ruble has fallen sharply recently.

.”

Luo Jin took another breath of cold air. Thirteen billion rubles, according to the current exchange rate, is more than 400 million US dollars! No wonder Fang Mingyuan wants the lion to open his mouth on the land. He wants less. It's really right.

The "sacrifice" of Qinchuan Samsung Motors Group Co., Ltd. cannot be tolerated.

"Master Fang, as far as I know, during the former Soviet Union, Siberia had a small population and a small population. After the disintegration of the former Soviet Union, many young people preferred to live in prosperous cities. This led to a serious shortage of labor in Siberia, Russia, and large areas of

Idle land. I have been to many places there. The villages are full of dirt roads. It is difficult to even drive when it rains. The population is small and the strong labor force is even smaller. You can see large areas of overgrown land everywhere, wooden houses in disrepair and

Dilapidated factory buildings that have been abandoned for many years. There are not even large stores in many places. Food and daily necessities such as vegetables and fruits are relatively expensive. Even if we rent the land, there is still a lot of work to be done in the early stage. These lands will be abandoned.

If they are left idle, there will be no benefit to the local government. If we rent these lands, we can not only bring rent to them, but also bring vitality and more job opportunities to the local area. This is already a win-win situation." Luo Jin frowned.
