Chen Li took Zhong Lei to Qinglin Villa immediately.
After parking the car and entering the villa, I met Chen Dabei who was leading a patrol.
"Chen County, our boss is in the fields." Chen Dabei greeted him. He knew that Chen County must have come to see his boss, so he told him his location immediately.
Chen Li said anxiously: "Captain Chen, take me to your boss quickly."
He had eaten the special watermelon from the villa and knew how delicious it was.
He had also seen the watermelons planted by Boss Qin in the backyard. He didn't think much about it when he heard Boss Qin's words. Now that he thought about it, he might have grown the special watermelons at Qinglin Villa.
"Chen County, I will take you there." Chen Dabei did not hesitate and took Chen Li to the location of the watermelon field.
The watermelon patch is next to the bougainvillea potted garden.
This area is separated from the villa by a gravel road and a fence.
Visitors can pass through this gravel road, but there is no way to enter through the fence wall, because the fence wall is covered with climbing bougainvillea, which blocks the view and cannot even see the scene inside.
Chen Dabei took Chen Li into the potted plant garden, entered a land being developed from the small gravel road next to it, and soon met Qin Lin.
"Chen County." When Qin Lin saw Chen Li coming, he put down the hoe in his hand and said hello.
Chen Li arrived at the field where Qin Lin was and asked tentatively: "Boss Qin, why did you go to the field by yourself?"
Qin Lin explained: "These watermelon seeds are a new variety. It is the first time they are officially planted in batches. I can only rest assured after watching them in person."
Of course, this is also the first game seed cultivated.
Cultivating watermelon seeds is the best start.
There are a lot of advanced seeds in this new Harvest Story. With this good start, it means that he has the opportunity to cultivate those seeds in the game one by one in reality.
Chen Li couldn't wait to ask: "Boss Qin, is this new variety of watermelon the same as the special watermelons sold in the Villa?"
The county has been paying attention to the impact of Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Food Company itself. How many tourists are paying attention to the villa, but they don't know much about some of the villa's products.
The Villa's Special Watermelon Villa has been sold for a long time, and the county didn't even pay attention to it.
The previous incident about the Melon King had also given them too much misleading.
The Melon King was bought from Taonan for the event. The other special watermelons were not said to be from Taonan.
They never thought that this special watermelon might have been cultivated by Boss Qin himself, nor did they discover the huge value in it.
As for how valuable it is? Think about that Xigua County, which relies on watermelon to increase its GDP by 3.2 billion.
He was certain that the watermelon from Qinglin Villa was definitely more delicious than the special watermelon from Xigua County.
If this watermelon can be promoted on a large scale in the county, then Youcheng can definitely become the second watermelon county, right?
They do not seek to increase GDP by 3.2 billion, but GDP by 1 billion a year can increase the county's GDP by more than 6%.
He naturally understands the concept of growing GDP by 6% with a watermelon.
GDP is also one of the conditions for a county to be promoted to a city.
Qin Lin no longer needed to hide anything, and said with certainty: "Yes, before the seeds were cultivated, they were called special watermelons. From now on, they can be called Qinglin watermelons. There are two levels in total, one is the ordinary Qinglin watermelon, and the other is the Qinglin watermelon." A very fine Qinglin watermelon.”
When Chen Li heard the answer, he couldn't help but get excited: "It's really like this. Boss Qin, how did you cultivate this kind of seed?"
Qin Lin was about to answer, but Li Kai next to him suddenly said: "Chen County, how to cultivate this watermelon is a trade secret, how can you tell others?"
He was afraid that Brother Qin was too friendly to others and would tell the story about the soil now. After all, Brother Qin had no measures to prevent external attacks.
Now that a clown like Sun Hui has come out to make plans, wouldn't it be more troublesome if word about the soil spread?
Although Brother Qin trusts Chen County, he will definitely report it when he returns to the county, so the news may spread.
He felt that he should propose the laboratory matter to Brother Qin as soon as possible. Regardless of whether the other party agreed or not, he could always give the other party an idea.
Seeing Li Kai blocking Chen Li's words, Qin Lin immediately explained: "Chen County, this is Professor Li Kaili, a professional agricultural product research expert."
Qin Lin naturally knew that Li Kai was doing it for his own good and did not want Chen Li to explore more about the source of the seeds.
This actually made him think about setting up a laboratory again and asking Li Kai to be the head of research.
Just how much Qinglin medicinal wine should be used to seduce the other party?
Chen Li came to the villa not once or twice. Naturally, he met Li Kai. He didn't pay attention to him before. Now that he knew that he was a professional agricultural research professor, he immediately thought that the cultivation of this special watermelon might have something to do with him.
There is such a capable person in Qinglin Villa.
He immediately said apologetically: "Professor Li is right. You shouldn't pry into business secrets at will. Boss Qin, do you mind if I help you plant some seeds?"
Qin Lin asked in surprise: "Xian Chen, are you still going to do this?"
Chen Li explained: "Boss Qin, don't underestimate me. I come from an authentic farmer's family and I grow watermelons." As he spoke, he took a small hoe next to him and started to operate it skillfully.
I've really done that job before, very skillfully.
"Boss Qin, in addition to the more delicious taste of this Qinglin watermelon, are there any special requirements for planting?" Chen Li waved his small hoe, not forgetting the business he came for.
Qin Lin explained: "There are no special requirements, but the growth period is faster. We don't use it to cultivate seeds. If it is directly grown into a melon, it should mature in 45 days."
"45 days?" Chen Li was immediately surprised.
Normally, it takes more than 90 days for a watermelon to grow from seed to fruit.
45 days is equivalent to being shortened by half.
The biggest restriction for many agricultural products is the long growth time and high risk period. Moreover, in order to ensure that the fruits grow intact and full, fertilizing, watering, weeding, etc. during this period require a lot of labor.
If the growth cycle is only half, the risk period will be smaller, and other costs will be greatly reduced.
Chen Li suddenly remembered something: "Boss Qin, I remember that the watermelons in your backyard seemed to have been planted directly outside in the winter, right?"
Qin Lin nodded and said: "Yes, this new variety of watermelon is not afraid of the cold. It can be grown in winter without relying on greenhouse friends, and it is not limited to seasons."
Chen Li was even more surprised.
Then planting this kind of watermelon out of season can save even more costs.
This inherently more delicious watermelon has these advantages that no other watermelon variety can match.
If this watermelon can be promoted on a large scale, I am afraid it can easily occupy the watermelon market on the market.
And, this is a quality that eludes other watermelon industry companies.
After all, farmers and plantation owners who grow watermelons have no reason to leave this type of watermelon alone and plant other watermelons, right?
"Boss Qin, is there any way to plant this watermelon on a large scale throughout the county?" Chen Li finally asked the question he was most concerned about.
Qin Lin understood what Chen Li meant and explained: "There is no problem with large-scale planting. There is a shortage of seeds now and more seeds need to be cultivated. There is also a funding issue. Just contracting land for county promotion will cost a lot of money." I don’t know how much it will cost in terms of funds, labor and materials.”
Now Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Food Company have developed very well, and the outside world's valuation of Qinglin Villa is already very high.
But at this stage, Qinglin Food Company is still in the repayment stage. The county's guidance fund will not be paid off until next month's settlement. After that, there will be plans for a new factory, and there is no way to set aside too much money in a short time.
After deducting costs such as labor and taxes from the restaurant, rafting, and bridal chamber projects at Qinglin Villa, the profits must also be returned to the county's support fund.
Excluding the investment in other construction projects and labor costs, the villa has only about 25 million in surplus cash on its books.
In a short period of time, there was a surplus of 25 million in working capital, which is a very healthy development for Qinglin Villa, which is developing and paying off debts at the same time.
But if we really want to plant Qinglin watermelon on a large scale throughout the county, this little money won't even be enough to contract the land.
So, do this slowly.
"Boss Qin, if the seed problem is solved, please consider planting it on a large area in the county. As for the funding problem, the county can still help you solve part of it." Chen Li obviously knows the cost of planting this new variety of watermelon on a large area. How big it needs to be.
However, his position did not allow him to make too big a promise, so he could only go back and discuss with Sun County.
So, after chatting with Qin Lin for some time, he left and hurried back to the county.
As soon as he arrived in the county, he immediately went to Sun County's office.
Sun County was looking at the information on the tomato plantations at this time. Those plantations that had signed contracts with Qinglin Food Company have now started planting.
The information in his hand is about the progress of various plantations, personnel recruitment, salary arrangements, etc.
After all, the county has approved support funds for these plantations, so we have to pay attention to them.
If something goes wrong with a project that promotes people's livelihood, it will go against the original intention of the county.
Seeing Chen Li come in, Sun Xian handed him the information: "Look at the information on this plantation. Every seed garden has started work. With the recruitment of new employees, every township and town can also create some jobs." Problem, that’s a good thing.”
Chen Li took the information and said hurriedly: "Sun County, we may have a bigger good thing. Something good has come out of Qinglin Villa."
"Watermelon?" Sun Xian guessed it immediately.
It is not normal for Qinglin Villa to develop 100 acres of land to grow watermelons. Chen Li ran out in a hurry before. He is not stupid.
Chen Li immediately nodded and said, "Well, it's a watermelon, but it's not an ordinary watermelon. The special watermelons at Qinglin Villa were cultivated by Boss Qin himself. His 100 acres of land will now be planted with this kind of watermelon."
"Boss Qin cultivated it himself, are you serious?" Sun County stood up subconsciously after hearing this.
He naturally knows about the special watermelons of Qinglin Villa. After all, they must know about these products of the Villa.
The county has already asked people to buy it, and county leaders including him have tasted it.
That special watermelon is indeed very delicious, and it cannot be compared to the ordinary watermelons on the market.
It's just that no one in the county thought that it was cultivated by Qinglin Villa itself.
How could he not be shocked when he heard the news now?
Moreover, he immediately realized the value of it and asked urgently: "Can this watermelon be planted on a large scale?"
Chen Li replied: "Sun County, Boss Qin's watermelon can not only be planted in a large area, but it only takes 45 days to grow and develop into a melon. The time is shortened by half. The key is that it can be grown without relying on greenhouses in winter, and there are no seasonal restrictions."
"Is this all true?" People in Sun County couldn't believe it when they heard this.
No matter what product, if the growth period is shortened by half, regardless of season, it will definitely be terrible. If the taste is more delicious, it will be outrageous.
Chen Li said with certainty: "Sun County, this is what Boss Qin said personally. He has no reason to lie. There are two biggest problems now. One is the shortage of watermelon seeds. Boss Qin has developed 100 acres in this area. It will definitely be done soon." More seeds can be cultivated.”
"There is also the issue of funding. We need to promote large-scale planting. Boss Qin may not have enough funds. Finally, has anyone else noticed this? Ningcheng and Tiancheng next to us have greater advantages in growing agricultural products than us."
When Sun County heard this, he said decisively: "You go and inform others, and the county will hold a meeting immediately."
…
Qinglin Villa.
After Qin Lin planted the few Quality 2 seeds, he followed Li Kai back to the original hall.
noon.
When Master Lin prepared a delicious meal, Li Qing came back from the winery: "That batch of Xiangshui tribute rice was fermented well. Qin Lin, believe me, just from the aroma of fermentation, you can be sure that this is good wine." .”
"Old Li, I believe in your craftsmanship." Qin Lin responded with a smile, then suddenly thought of something and said to Li Kai: "Speaking of wine, Brother Li, I will treat you to a good drink at noon."
With that said, he turned around and walked out of the hall, heading to the office.
Naturally, he was thinking about the laboratory. The laboratory should be prepared first. The laboratory does not need to be big at first, just a shelf.
But he doesn't understand this, and he doesn't have a researcher he can trust. Now he wants to see if he can seduce Li Kai to come to his laboratory. At noon, he will first have a bottle of 40-year-old Qinglin medicinal wine to explore the way.
There are so many good things in the game, he doesn't believe that he can't handle Li Kai.
Qin Lin just came out of the hall, but Li Qing reacted: "Uncle, that's not right. It's obviously me who worked hard to make the wine, so why did he say he wanted to treat you to a good drink? Isn't it my share?"
Li Kai said seriously: "Who made me have a better relationship with Brother Qin? I didn't see that he brought me the vitality wine."
Li Qing disagreed: "That was because you happened to be here. If I had been here at that time, he would have brought out the Vitality Wine."
Li Kai asked back: "Then why did he only say treat me and not you? I guess the wine at noon should be better than the wine you have drunk before."
"I still don't believe it." Li Qing felt inexplicably uncomfortable: "I guess the wine Qin Lin said to treat you must be medicinal wine to treat hemorrhoids. Only you need this wine, and I don't need it. You and I What do sick people fight for?”
Li Kai was dissatisfied: "Li Qing, you are so jealous that you even attacked your uncle personally."
Although the two of them were arguing with each other, they could both tell that they were still looking forward to the wine Qin Lin was talking about.
