"Zhengjun, you raise pigs? Isn't that a waste of your talent? Do you have the time for that?" Lin Bingde asked.
Lin Zhengjun understood as soon as he heard it.
Lin Bingde equated what Lin Zhengjun called pig farming with small-scale pig farming.
After all, every household now has the task of selling live pigs, and will raise one or two pigs at home.
Lin Zhengjun said: "Secretary, you misunderstood. I am planning to build a large-scale pig farm, raising 300 pigs in one phase!"
"So it's a large pig farm! Three hundred pigs? That's not a small number!"
Lin Bingde calculated for a moment and said in surprise: "It will take 70 or 80 pig pens. Just building a pig farm will cost tens of thousands of dollars!"
"Uncle, you know I don't lack this little money!" Lin Zhengjun said with a bit of arrogance.
Lin Bingde laughed and said, "Haha, I know you are rich. Not to mention the dividends from the food cooperative, you have made a lot of money just from writing articles and buying stocks in Hong Kong."
Lin Zhengjun smiled and said, "In addition, you have to allocate a piece of land for me in the village. I don't want good land, I want rotten land that can't grow crops!"
Lin Bingde did not agree immediately, but narrowed his eyes and said, "Zhengjun, you didn't tell me about raising funds through stock offerings. So, do you want to start your own business?"
Lin Zhengjun nodded and said, "Sir, you won't force me to bring the members to do this, will you?"
"As the old saying goes, a forced melon is not sweet!"
Lin Bingde waved his hands and said, "To form a cooperative is a matter of mutual consent. I can't force you!"
"Besides, you've already helped and motivated the village enough!"
"You want to fight alone for once, but I can't force you to do it!"
Lin Zhengjun said: "You really understand the greater good! This time I want to work alone and set a benchmark for the individual economy!"
The issue of property rights will be a difficult problem that many entrepreneurs will face in the future.
From Mr. Li of Jianlibao, to Mr. Gu of Kelon Air Conditioning, and Yang Rong of Brilliance Enterprise, there are many entrepreneurs who have failed due to property rights issues.
After all, there are only a few people who are as good at handling things as Lao Zong of Wahaha!
There are many cases where founders can share the hardships but not the happiness.
When the cake is not big, everyone will work together. But once the cake is big and it's time to divide it, it's time to stab each other!
Lin Zhengjun had no choice but to set up a collective food cooperative.
What he hopes for is complete private property rights, and everyone can even invest together.
But once the brigade invests in land.
Even if it is just a small brigade, it is still a collective, and it will be torn open and have loopholes, giving certain people - not necessarily brigade cadres, but perhaps someone's son - the opportunity to bully or even deprive private capital!
That's why Lin Zhengjun confirmed again and again that he owned the "Laogandie" brand and even wrote it on the industrial and commercial registration documents.
To put it bluntly, Lin Zhengjun prepared for the worst - if one day the factory equipment was taken back and he couldn't take it away, then at least he still had the brand!
You can also start a new business!
I have never hesitated to assume the worst of human beings. Lu Xun really said this, and this is also the code of conduct for Lin Zhengjun in his business career!
Therefore, as long as there is an opportunity, he will definitely not cooperate with state-owned capital and remain sufficiently vigilant.
Lin Bingde had no idea that Lin Zhengjun had put so much thought into building a pig farm, and he was so full of ideas!
He was also worried about Lin Zhengjun: "It's just that raising pigs is not without risks. Apart from anything else, you've seen swine fever, right?"
Some brigades have collective pig farming, but Hewan Brigade does not dare to do so.
A few years ago, there was an outbreak of swine fever at the collective pig farm of Hewan Brigade, and hundreds of pigs died overnight.
Then no one dared to engage in concentrated breeding anymore.
Lin Zhengjun said: "Uncle, don't worry, this time, I am not breeding blindly, I am cooperating with the Agricultural University!"
As he spoke, he took out the framework cooperation agreement.
Everyone in the Lin family gathered around and watched curiously.
After reading it, Lin Bingde was also shocked: "You actually cooperated with the Agricultural University? They are all great professors and scholars. Are they willing to cooperate with you?"
Lin Tiedan was immediately dissatisfied and said, "Sir, what do you mean by this? You look down on Zhengjun. He has met Mr. Deng, so how can he not be worthy of Professor Fei from the Agricultural University?"
Lin Bingde laughed and said, "This unlucky kid, he talks like he's looking for a partner on a blind date, that's not what I mean..."
Lin Zhengjun smiled and said, "Uncle, I understand what you mean. You can't understand why Professor Fei Yunzhe of the Agricultural University wants to cooperate with me?"
"yes!"
"They are short of money and research funding..." Lin Zhengjun immediately talked about the situation of the Agricultural University and Fei Yunzhe.
Lin Bingde couldn't help but sigh, "I thought only the countryside was poor, but I didn't expect that even in the city, even university research is difficult!"
Lin Zhengjun laughed and said, "Who said it wasn't true?"
Lin Bingde frowned and thought deeply: "If we can invite these professors to teach us how to raise pigs, we don't have to worry about swine fever or hoof rot or anything like that!"
"Besides, it's politically safe. To put it bluntly, we work for the Agricultural University, helping them select and breed high-quality pigs. This is a steady and upright thing to do!"
"I'm just asking, can this big white pig work? If it doesn't work, wouldn't all your investment be wasted?"
Nowadays, no one raises white pigs. All they raise are local black soil pigs. This so-called imported white pig is still very unfamiliar to Lin Bingde.
"It doesn't matter."
Lin Zhengjun said: "Even if we fail to breed high-quality pigs, and the feed turns into pork, at least there will be no loss."
"If we can raise a large white pig, we will make a fortune!"
Lin Bingde glanced at the terms again and said, "That's right. When the time comes, we can raise these fine pigs first, use the least amount of feed, and produce the most pork. Then we can make a lot of money! But the feed..."
Lin Bingde is worried.
Feed is a big problem.
Lin Zhengjun raised 300 pigs in the first phase. Even if he fed them two kilograms a day, he would need several hundred kilograms of feed a day!
Besides, with Lin Zhengjun's ambition, how could he limit himself to this in the future? Just like the food cooperative, the scale will definitely expand!
"Don't worry."
Lin Zhengjun said: "First of all, the corn residue left over from the production of hemp candy, as well as fish heads and bones, can all be used to feed pigs!"
"That's right!" Lin Bingde nodded and said, "I was wondering why you went to the trouble of drying all the waste residue in the sun and storing it!"
"Also, under my guidance, the Agricultural University has completed the bio-fermentation feed preparation!"
Lin Bingde was stunned: "Biological fermentation feed? What is that?"
"It's a kind of feed fermented by probiotics..." Lin Zhengjun explained immediately.
Lin Bingde opened the door to the new world, his eyes wide open, and said, "According to what you said, the alfalfa and astragalus all over the mountains, as well as the reed stalks in the river, have all become biological feed that can be used to feed pigs after being fermented by the chemical?"
