Having been accustomed to the material life of the previous world, Sun Zongyuan deeply felt that the people today are suffering.
In your previous life, you unknowingly ate food that caused high blood sugar, high blood lipids and high blood pressure. Most people either have moderate fatty liver or are overweight. The health industry has become a new industry. If you don’t have fitness equipment at home, it means you don’t know how to live.
People nowadays have only just solved the problem of food and clothing for a few years. Their bodies are not yet strong, they do a lot of physical labor, have big appetites and eat a lot. They also like to eat fatty meat. Who likes to eat lean meat? It has no oil.
Sun Zongyuan lived a new life and thought about what he could do for the people and for his children.
I have to make some contribution to society to the best of my ability after my rebirth. Didn’t the designer say: Let some people get rich first, then the rich will help the poor, and finally achieve universal prosperity.
After returning home and having dinner in the evening, Sun Zongyuan went to Secretary Li Jianguo's home to report his thoughts:
"Secretary, our fiscal revenue this year should be good, right?"
"Isn't this all thanks to you? You have now paid 3 million yuan in taxes, and 1.8 million yuan has gone into our township's treasury. Together with other taxes, our township's fiscal revenue this year will exceed 2 million yuan. I heard that the county's fiscal revenue will exceed 10 million yuan this year. We account for 1/5 of the county's total." Li Jianguo said with a smile.
"Is this money enough for us to use for a year, Uncle Li?" Sun Zongyuan asked.
"We estimate the expenditure to be 1.3 million yuan, and there's still 700,000 yuan left. We have to spend it by the end of the year, otherwise County Magistrate Wang might come and ask for more money."
Sun Zongyuan suddenly remembered the plot of the TV series "Bright Sword":
"I heard you made a fortune again?"
Well, it’s really about the same, and you really have to spend it.
"Uncle Li, if we collect nearly 1 million in three increases and five unifications and education surcharges, won't that mean we'll have another 1 million?"
"You kid, what's the matter? Don't try to trick me."
"I have an idea. Would you like to hear it?" said Sun Zongyuan.
"My idea is to collect the three levies and five unified taxes first, suspend the education surcharge, and then give everyone a 25 yuan reward for raising pigs as a subsidy to the people. As the people become richer, we can collect more taxes. In three years, we can actually exempt the three levies and five unified taxes. It's not easy for the people."
"I have considered this in the early stages. If we don't charge it, it will be a violation of the superior policy, and other towns and villages will not look favorably upon our Honghua Township, so we have to charge it. I can ask the leaders to see if they should stop charging the education surcharge. After all, a country can only be strong if its people are rich," said Li Jianguo with a smile.
"But what ideas do you have to make ordinary people rich quickly? Tell me about it."
"My initial idea is to launch a pig-raising project: call it the One Pig Per Person, Get Rich Project. We'll reward any family that raises pigs according to the requirements with the money from the three increases and five unifications. The price of live pigs fluctuates annually now. Last year, pork was 56 cents, this year it's 68 cents, and I estimate it might even be 80 cents or even one yuan the year after next. The main cost of raising a pig in rural areas is about 70 to 80 yuan per piglet. Pig feed is basically sweet potato stalks, peanut vines, etc., which is very low-cost. The old method is to sell pigs once a year. I heard that using the Landrace pigs imported from foreign countries by the Agricultural College, and feeding them with feed, they can be sold twice a year. I think there's money to be made there."
"How did you know there's such a method of raising pigs?"
"I went to the provincial capital two months ago to purchase equipment and heard someone say we could go to the Agricultural College for an inspection. If it's feasible, we could ask the university professors to give us technical guidance."
"If it's really as you said, that would be great. We will go to the Agricultural College for an inspection tomorrow, and then decide on the three proposals and five unifications!" Li Jianguo said firmly.
At eight o'clock the next morning, a van from the Honghua Township Family Planning Office took Secretary Li, Township Head Zhao, Deputy Township Head Li, the Animal Husbandry Station Director, and Sun Zongyu to the Agricultural College. Before leaving, Secretary Li Jianguo contacted Professor Xu Changming, the director of the Animal Husbandry Department of the Agricultural College, through his connections, and made an appointment for an inspection.
The 180-kilometer journey took three hours. A journey without a highway would be boring and tiring.
At 11:20, the leaders of Honghua Township, along with Vice President Lin Feng of the Agricultural College, Xu Changming of the Animal Husbandry Department, and five other key teachers from the department, sat in the college's small conference room. After a few polite words, Li Jianguo explained his purpose. Professor Xu Changming said:
"I am very grateful to the leaders of Honghua Township for their support for our animal husbandry work. We have imported 'Du Changda' (American Duroc pigs, Danish Landrace pigs, and British Yorkshire pigs) from abroad and crossbred them to create the three-way hybrid pig."
"Foreign white pigs grow quickly, reaching marketability in an average of 5-6 months. They also have low breeding costs, requiring only 2-3 kilograms of feed for every kilogram of weight gain. Domestic black pigs have a low lean meat percentage, grow slowly, and are produced in small numbers. They take an average of one year to market, requiring 4-5 kilograms of feed for every kilogram of weight gain. Therefore, we predict that imported white pigs will gradually become the mainstream of the pig farming industry."
"So if the people raise such Landrace pigs, will they make more money?" asked Village Chief Zhao.
"The key to pig farming is the meat-to-feed ratio. Raising pigs that eat less and grow faster in less than six months is profitable for ordinary people."
"How many piglets do you have here? How much are they?" asked Deputy Township Chief Li.
"We introduced about 100 sows. Now we have more than 1,000 piglets aged 1-2 months and 200 underage sows over 3 months old. The prices are different." A teacher from the agricultural college answered.
"An adult sow costs 500 yuan, a juvenile sow costs 300 yuan, and a piglet costs 1.2 yuan per jin (approximately 30 jin). If you set up your own breeding farm, the price won't be so high."
Dean Lin Feng said, "We have spent no less than 100,000 yuan to introduce high-quality pig breeds from abroad, but the promotion has not been very good, and the public still does not accept these high-quality pig breeds. If you come to introduce them, we can provide free technical support and guidance. At the same time, we can also serve as a technology promotion base for our college, which will be conducive to our school's continued pig research."
In a small meeting room nearby, several leaders of Honghua Township discussed and finally reached a consensus.
"Our Honghua Township needs to import 800 sows and 1,000 piglets. We will purchase them at your school's price. In addition, we are supporting the college's construction with 30,000 yuan and inviting your school to serve as our technical support unit. We also hope to include our township in the promotion and breeding base for fine-breed pigs. What do you think, President Lin?"
"Of course I have no objection. Let's hold a meeting in the hospital to go through the procedures, and then officially reinstate you."
The two parties reached a consensus in a friendly atmosphere and will sign a specific cooperation agreement after the leaders of both sides have studied and approved it. The Agricultural College can first put forward work suggestions on some details, and Honghua Township will improve them based on local conditions.
