In 1997, the development of Yuquanying was on the fast track.
First, a large number of Fujian businessmen came to invest here, causing a large number of projects to be launched at the same time. Standing on the roof and looking around, there are tower cranes everywhere. For those who didn’t know, I thought this was a first-tier coastal city.
Secondly, Xiang Nan himself invested more than 40 million to establish a Xingwang breeding farm, a Fafu feed factory, and a greenhouse vegetable base.
The farm is used to raise sheep. The mutton of Yanchixia is famous far and wide, especially the Yanchitan mutton. The meat is delicate and tender, not fishy or smelly, and is the best mutton.
The reason why Tan Sheep is called Tan Sheep is mainly because it is raised in the wild. The Yanchi area is a saline-alkali land, and there is saline-alkali water on the surface. The sheep drink this water all year round, which naturally removes the fishy smell.
However, there are no such conditions for centralized breeding in breeding farms, and Xiang Nan did not expect to be able to raise Tan sheep. He knows that even ordinary mutton is actually quite valuable now.
Mutton has been a relatively high-grade meat since ancient times. In ancient times, the highest standard for sacrifice was Tailao, which was one pig, one cow, and one sheep; the lower standard, Shaolao, was one pig and one sheep. Song Renzong was hungry in the middle of the night and wanted to eat a bowl of delicious mutton soup. Later, I was afraid that spending money would be too extravagant, so I kept silent.
In the 1990s, as people's living standards improved, the demand for mutton was also increasing day by day, and the market prospects were very promising. Moreover, the whole body of the sheep is full of treasures.
Sheepskin can be made into furs, leather shoes, leather bags, leather hats, leather gloves, leather seats, etc.; wool can be used for textiles and used to make blankets, sweaters, felts, etc.; after fermentation, sheep dung is very good. of organic fertilizers. It has strong fertilizer effect and strong fertility.
Therefore, raising sheep cannot be said to be a huge profit, but it is also very promising.
…
Feed mills are mainly used to process corn, potatoes, straw, etc., turning them into feed, increasing their added value, and also increasing farmers' income.
With economic development and residents' living standards improving, the demand for meat is increasing day by day.
In the early 1990s, China was still the world's leading meat exporter. By the 1920s, China had changed from an exporting country to an importing country.
This shows that the domestic supply of meat products is no longer able to meet the consumption needs of the Chinese people. So the livestock breeding industry is really promising. Livestock breeding is inseparable from feed.
In the past, farmers could only sell the grain they produced to grain stations, and the purchase prices at grain stations were not high.
Now it has an extra place to go. The Fafu Feed Factory in Xiangnan has an annual production capacity of up to 150,000 tons, which requires 150 million kilograms of grain, which can solve the problem of unsaleable grain for nearly 100,000 families.
In addition, it can raise 300,000 mutton sheep and supply more than 10 million kilograms of meat to the market, which can be said to be a matter of immeasurable merit.
…
As for vegetable greenhouses, Xiang Nan came up with another way to increase farmers' income.
People cannot help but eat vegetables. Vegetables are rich in nutrients and can supplement vitamins, carotene, protein, amino acids, minerals, etc.
But no one grew vegetables in Yuquanying before.
First, the wind and sand are too strong, and the vegetable seedlings will be killed as soon as they are exposed to the soil, which is a waste of effort;
Second, there is an extreme lack of water. You have to use a flatbed truck to water the ground. The water requirement of vegetables is several times that of wheat and corn, and it cannot be supplied by manpower alone;
Third, there is nowhere to sell the large-scale cultivation. Yuquanying is nearly a hundred miles away from Yinchuan City. At that time, there were no roads and transportation was inconvenient. Moreover, farmers do not have advanced means of transportation and rely on animal-drawn vehicles to transport fresh vegetables to the city.
Therefore, even if they do plant, they only plant one or two pieces of land, or plant some pumpkins, cucumbers, eggplants, etc. in their own yards. Large-scale planting is rare.
But times have changed. Now that the highway has been opened, transportation has become more convenient. Picking fresh vegetables in the early morning can be found in wet markets and major supermarkets in the morning, which can be said to be very fast.
Moreover, Yuquanying has newly opened a three-level water pumping station, which can irrigate tens of thousands of acres of land, so water is no longer a problem. After building a greenhouse, wind and sand are no longer a problem.
In fact, a large number of fruit trees have been planted in these Gobi deserts to protect them from wind and sand, and the effect is very obvious. A few years ago, there were always sandstorms. In the past two years, I have basically not seen him. Even if there is, the power is much smaller.
Vegetables grown in greenhouses can grow off-season vegetables, allowing people to eat fresh vegetables in the cold winter. This is also very beneficial to enriching the people’s food basket.
…
In 1997, 356 new companies were registered in Yuquanying, 120 of which had a registered capital of more than 500,000 yuan.
Various enterprises have sprung up, making Yuquanying more and more prosperous and prosperous. Even fast food restaurants, coffee shops, game arcades, etc. that are only found in the city have appeared in Yuquanying.
It can be said that in terms of prosperity, it even exceeds Ning'an County.
In July 1997, Minning Village officially started construction.
It is a project assisted by southern Fujian and will have a series of supporting facilities, such as hospitals, schools, banks, post offices, etc.
After it is completed, it will become the administrative center, management center and residential center of Yuquanying Development Zone, enough to accommodate thousands of immigrants.
And so many projects have brought a lot of job opportunities for young people.
Xiang Nandu provided 500,000 yuan to An Yongshou and An Yongkang, and asked them to recruit a construction team to take over the project.
An Yongshou and An Yongkang performed poorly in the first two years and dared to get involved in Shuihua's clothing factory, so they were severely beaten by Xiang Nan. Not only did they cut off their financial resources, they were even not allowed to visit the house for a time.
Losing Xiang Nan's protection, An Yongshou and An Yongkang immediately became angry. They suffered a severe beating from society, which also made them recognize the reality and learn to behave.
After two years of hard work, the two of them finally looked alike.
An Yongshou and his wife opened a clothing store in the county town, and An Yongkang and his wife opened a restaurant in the county town. Although they did not make much money, it was not a problem to support themselves.
Xiang Nan saw that the two of them knew they could live peacefully, so he funded them to set up a construction company to undertake projects in Yuquanying.
…
"Now Yuquanying is engaged in civil engineering construction. There is no shortage of work. You can lead the people to do it well. Don't be lazy or slip up. There is plenty of money to be made." Xiang Nan asked, "Just be the same as before, just eat, drink and have fun." .When the time comes, even if you are brothers, I will not help you anymore."
"We understand, brother." An Yongshou and An Yongkang both nodded.
After being beaten by society, the two of them have long understood that without Xiang Nan's protection, they are nothing. So you must be obedient and hold on tight.
With a rich brother like Xiang Nan here, as long as they work honestly, they are not afraid of not making money. So they both learned well and immediately led the engineering team to undertake projects in Yuquan Camp.
Because Xiang Nan is here, who doesn't sell them face, so the company's business is still good, making a small million in the first year.
