When people from the local forestry bureau came to check, they were shocked. So many red-crowned cranes really appeared here and their clothes didn't intend to leave. This is a big deal and it's unscientific!
So they reported it layer by layer, and finally reported it to the Jiang Provincial Forestry Department. Since the Jiang Provincial Forestry Department had no experts on red-crowned cranes, they specifically issued a document requesting the Forestry Department of Dandong Province, the province with the largest number of red-crowned cranes in the country, to send experts on red-crowned cranes. Let’s take a look at the situation.
The group of people marched from Nancheng, the capital of Jiang Province, to Lijiaji in the countryside of Jiangcheng. They asked the villagers to lead the way to the mountains. After seeing the group of red-crowned cranes, they were all amazed. This situation was too rare. They had never seen it before. This never happened!
"Generally speaking, red-crowned cranes would not choose such a habitat. What's more, this group of red-crowned cranes are on their way back to migrate with a clear destination. It's incredible that they stopped midway and chose this habitat!"
A red-crowned crane expert from Dandong Province also said in disbelief.
The group of red-crowned cranes in front of me are leisurely hunting and resting, and their attitude is that they regard this place as their habitat. Although the territorial behavior of red-crowned cranes is not obvious, this expert who has studied red-crowned cranes for many years can still tell from the behavior of this group of red-crowned cranes. It turns out that this group of red-crowned cranes have designated this area as their own territory, which means they have no plans to leave!
This is completely unbelievable. A group of people from the Forestry Department can't figure out what is going on. But now that the facts are like this, this group of red-crowned cranes have settled here. What they should think about now is how to deal with it.
Because March and April will soon be the estrus and breeding period of the red-crowned cranes. If protection is not provided in time, the group of red-crowned cranes will be easily harmed by the outside world, especially in such a strange environment and surrounded by mountains. Dangerous animals!
"Professor Lin, what do you think we should do now? There is nothing we can do if these red-crowned cranes refuse to leave!"
"This is indeed rare and very difficult. In my opinion, the best way at the moment is to build a protected area on the spot. It is the best way!"
After much research, we finally decided to build a red-crowned crane sanctuary in Lijiaji!
"Building a protected area is not a trivial matter. It requires funds and the acquisition of villagers' land. That area is the villagers' breeding farm!"
“It’s just a breeding farm, is it important to build a protected area?”
"Professor Lin, you may not understand the situation. This is the breeding farm of Li's Agriculture Co., Ltd., with an annual output value of several billion. We have to expropriate their land to build a breeding farm. I'm afraid the price is not affordable!"
Professor Lin, the red-crowned crane expert from Dandong Province, was also dumbfounded. He wanted to build a protected area on the spot to protect the red-crowned cranes he had studied for many years, but the reality...
He said a little unwillingly:
"Should we just ignore these red-crowned cranes?"
"Professor Lin, we understand your feelings, but the actual conditions do not allow us to do this..."
······
Because the visitors from the Forestry Bureau were received by the village committee, this group of people temporarily stayed in the villagers' homes. The meeting was held in the yard of Li Zhe's second uncle Li Manfu's house. Many people heard this paragraph Quarrel, after all, it is rare for a provincial official to come to the village.
Suddenly the news that people in the province wanted to acquire the land on the mountain to build a protected area for red-crowned cranes spread in the village, and naturally it quickly reached Li Zhe's ears.
Just when the villagers were talking about it, Li Zhe had a different idea after learning about it. He wanted to help Professor Lin and the Provincial Forestry Department build this protected area!
Immediately he found the village chief Li Manfu and told him his decision:
"Second uncle, didn't the people from the province say they want to build a protected area? What I mean is to build this protected area. We even have to pay to help them build it!"
Li Manfu was a little confused when he heard what Li Zhe said. Even though he had supported Li Zhe unconditionally before, he was a little confused now:
"My child, you said we can just give up a piece of land on the breeding farm to build a breeding area for them. After all, this is a good thing with countless merits, but we still have to pay to help them build this protected area. What does this mean? ?We can’t give out land and money at the same time..."
Li Zhe also knew that his second uncle would ask such a question, so he had already prepared it and said patiently:
"First of all, second uncle, the territory occupied by those red-crowned cranes does not conflict with the territory required by the animals on our mountain at all. Letting them see this land as a protected area will not cause any damage to our breeding farm!"
"Secondly, why should we pay to help them build this protected area? It is a good thing with countless merits, but the most important thing is that I plan to build a tourist resort in our back mountain in the future! By then, this protected area will The red-crowned crane is a highlight for tourists!”
This is Li Zhe's real idea, to build a tourist resort!
Once this tourist resort is built, some single-family villas will be built on the back mountain. Lijiaji is backed by the mountains and is a good place with beautiful scenery. When this protected area is built, there will be red-crowned cranes in the protected area. For viewing, the villagers can also take vacationing tourists into the mountains for hunting. With experienced hunters leading the hunt and escorted by Rhubarb and Dahei, safety issues should be no problem.
And at worst, I can contribute that sea of seven-color flowers, which will definitely be very attractive to the holiday crowd. Then you can imagine how many tourists the tourist resort you built will attract!
If this tourist resort is developed, the revenue will be calculated in the hundreds of millions a year, and this does not include other additional income!
This can become another major economic pillar industry in the village!
When Li Manfu heard Li Zhe's words, his eyes lit up and he said immediately:
"I really don't know how your kid's brain is growing. I saw on TV that those tourist attractions charge hundreds of millions every year just for admission. This is a profitable business!"
Li Zhe didn't know how to explain to the old village chief that what he wanted to do was something like a tourist resort, rather than a tourist attraction that accepts a large number of tourists. If it is run well, a top tourist resort can earn an absolute revenue of one year. Not lower than those tourist attractions.
If it were to be turned into a tourist attraction, it would receive a large number of tourists every day. To be honest, Li Zhe was not sure, but he estimated that his sea of seven-colored flowers would be completely destroyed soon. Even if guardrails were installed, it would be useless. Even Li Zhe I suspect that the vegetables in my own field will suffer by then. This is the current reality without bragging.
Moreover, I still grow fairy plants in my greenhouse. If there is a loss, nothing can compensate for it! No matter how much money you make, you can't buy something like Xian Zhi...
And in that case, your peaceful pastoral life will be completely ruined. With so many tourists visiting every day, you still want to relax amidst the bustle of people?
What's more, Li Zheke has full confidence in his tourist resort. In which tourist resort can you see national first-level protected animals? In which tourist resort can you see the sea of colorful flowers and eat pure wild boar meat? And the shrimps and crabs raised in the spiritual water!
These are our core competitive advantages, and I believe that we will definitely attract a large number of wealthy tourists to come for vacation in the future! We only receive a small number of tourists every week, but the price can be set higher enough to make a profit!
Thinking about it, Li Zhe himself was fascinated by the great and beautiful prospects of the future, but soon Li Zhe came to his senses. The most important thing now is to build this reserve and get the permission, otherwise In the future, if we lose the big selling point of the red-crowned crane, it will be greatly reduced!
So Li Zhe took the initiative to find the leaders from the Jiang Provincial Forestry Department and Professor Lin. They also knew that Li Zhe was the real controller of Li's Agriculture Co., Ltd., so they paid more attention to it.
Li Zhe came up and said straight to the point:
"I can help you build this red-crowned crane sanctuary. I can set aside a special area in the breeding farm as the reserve. It doesn't cost a penny, and I can also contribute money to help build the sanctuary!"
The people from the Xiajiang Provincial Forestry Department and Professor Lin were all confused. Happiness came so suddenly! Just when they were about to thank Li Zhe, Li Zhe continued and said:
"I can agree to all of the above, but I need a right, that is, after the reserve is built in the future, I can use these red-crowned cranes for others to visit. Of course, this is all on the premise of ensuring the safety of the red-crowned cranes!"
At this time, the people from the Jiang Provincial Forestry Department and Professor Lin were all lost in thought. In the end, it was the people from the Jiang Provincial Forestry Department who spoke first:
"Professor Lin, what do you think?"
"I tend to agree. After all, protected areas must be built, and even the protected areas in Dandong are sometimes allowed to be visited by the public!"
Li Zhe's request means that the right to visit the red-crowned crane is transferred from the state's hands to his, and he will decide when the red-crowned crane will be visited...
Li Zhe later expressed his idea of building a tourist resort:
"Everyone, I just need these red-crowned cranes as a highlight to attract tourists. It will not have any impact on the red-crowned cranes!"
Li Zhe's meaning is very simple. He can help everyone get what they need. Li Zhe helps provide the land and fees for building the protected area, but what Li Zhe needs is that the red-crowned crane can be used as a signature highlight of the tourist resort he built, and it is not What impact will it have on the protection of red-crowned cranes?
Professor Lin naturally agreed. After all, if he did not agree with Li Zhe's suggestion, it would be difficult to build this protected area. The people from the Jiang Provincial Forestry Department over there thought for a long time before saying:
"We have to go back and discuss this matter. After all, this is the first of its kind in the country. It is indeed relatively rare for privately funded protected areas to be built."
Li Zhe also understood and said: "That's natural!"
