“Yaohua does not need to rent any more land for the time being.”
Wang Shuning didn't expect that the other party came here this time to ask him to rent all the land around the plantation. Thinking of the mayor Sheng he met on the first day of the Canton Fair, he mentioned at that time that he wanted Yaohua to rent land to expand production. Could it be his intention?
Qin Fengyuan also knew that half of the five square kilometers rented by Yaohua had not been planted with anything.
Not only did they not plant it, they also built laboratories and factories on it, obviously intending to make great efforts in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
"I just passed by the plantation and saw a lot of large tillage machines on the land. Mr. Wang, do you plan to plant crops and fruits on all the land in the second half of this year?"
Yaohua's products are sold at such high prices and its reputation has already been established. It is now at the peak of its popularity. As a business manager, expanding production, meeting market demand and making money are the top priorities.
Wang Shuning: "In the second half of the year, apart from the pharmaceutical factory and auxiliary construction in the plantation, other places will be planted with crops and fruits and vegetables."
Qin Fengyuan shot a look at him, and Shi Haoke immediately tried to persuade Wang Shuning: "There are still many companies at the Canton Fair who have not grabbed your company's goods for the second half of the year. In this case, why not rent more land and double the production in the second half of the year."
Wang Shuning leaned his neck back. "Increasing production means hiring more people. Now Yaohua has 5,000 employees in total. If we double the production, that means 10,000 people will work for Yaohua. Four or five months' salary before the plantation is harvested is not a small amount."
Qin Fengyuan frowned, "Yaohua's profits in the first half of the year should be able to afford it."
Wang Shuning spread his hands, "Originally there was no problem at all, but Yaohua entered the pharmaceutical industry and purchased a lot of advanced research and development equipment. We invested hundreds of millions of yuan in those things alone, and we really don't have the money to further expand production."
Qin Fengyuan said quickly: "You can apply for a loan from the bank. With Yaohua's current qualifications, the bank will lend you 1 billion, not to mention 100 million. The government can help."
After the Canton Fair ended, Shenguang Yaohua Co., Ltd. has become the biggest brand in Raomi District. Even in the whole Shenguang City, it is a leading enterprise. No one will doubt the future potential of Yaohua.
Wang Shuning looked at the two of them and said, "Without planning ahead, it will be hard to recruit workers at once. The interest rates on bank loans are also high. The price of construction land around the plantation has increased this year. I don't want to consider it for now."
Qin Fengyuan wondered in his heart, does she want to lower the price or rent somewhere else?
"We can negotiate the price. To be honest with you, Mr. Wang, after the Canton Fair, several foreign companies came to rent land. The higher-ups thought it would be better to rent it to domestic companies to help our own development. The first company Mayor Sheng thought of was Yaohua."
Wang Shuning straightened his back and said, "Chief Qin, I'm not trying to lower the price this time. I'm not planning to rent industrial land anymore."
Qin Fengyuan's expression faded, and his mind was a little confused. "You don't want to rent industrial land? You want to rent agricultural land?"
Wang Shuning nodded, "Yes."
Qin Fengyuan was a little confused for a moment. "The agricultural land in Shenguang City is all contracted by the rural collectives and allocated to every household. Where does Yaoguang rent it from?"
Wang Shuning said in a deep breath, "Rent it directly from the farmers through the village committee?"
Qin Fengyuan frowned. In the minds of farmers, land is their life. If they rent it out, how will they live?
"Are they willing to rent it? The rent probably won't be enough for them to live on."
There are few jobs in China now, so it is unrealistic for everyone to go out to work.
Wang Shuning put his hands together on the table. "When Yaohua recruited workers in the second half of last year, all of them were from Youwei County. Fengyuan Town, Dongfeng Town, Hongtou Town, Baiye Town are located close to each other and their land is connected. Including this summer's recruitment, another 3,000 people were recruited. Many employees have said that they don't have time to take care of their family's fields and can only entrust them to relatives and friends to farm."
"At the beginning of next year, Yaohua will recruit another 5,000 people from these places. By then, all the laborers in the village will go to Yaohua, and no one will farm their land. I have reached land lease agreements with the village committees of Fengyuan Town, Dongfeng Town, Hongtou Town, and Baiye Town. The laborers aged 18 to 55 in their villages can work in Yaohua, and their land will be leased to Yaohua at a price of 100 yuan per mu."
In the 1980s, farmers regarded the fields as their lifeline, and not many of them left the fields. If it were the case 30 years later, there would be no need to provide jobs at all.
The income from farming is too low, it’s better to go out and work.
Qin Fengyuan couldn't help but clench his fists on his knees. Wang Shuning had planned this in advance.
The agricultural land of Fengyuan Town, Dongfeng Town, Hongtou Town and Baiye Town combined is at least 60 square kilometers.
Agricultural land costs 100 yuan per mu. Last year, Yaohua rented industrial land in Raomi District at 10 yuan per square meter, which means more than 6,600 yuan per mu. The price difference is 66 times.
No wonder we don’t have to rent land.
Even an elementary school student can calculate such a huge price difference.
Four towns, ten thousand employees, farmers have been farming since childhood, so it is most suitable for planting.
Qin Fengyuan's mouth was dry and he could no longer speak.
"In that case, we won't force it. Will we still do this plantation next year?"
It is already a loss to use industrial land for planting, and Wang Shuning has rented it for fifty years.
Wang Shuning smiled and said, "With the development of Yaohua, industrial land will naturally have its own uses."
Qin Fengyuan understood that the factory construction had already begun. If the development went smoothly, it would naturally expand. If Wang Shuning wanted to do other things in the future, these five square kilometers would be a ready-made construction site.
Qin Fengyuan didn't step firmly when going down the stairs and almost fell down.
"Section Chief." Shi Haoke exclaimed and pulled the person back in time.
Qin Fengyuan tightly grasped the armrest and shook his head, "It's okay, I just had a sudden headache."
Shi Haoke was driving and Qin Fengyuan was sitting in the back.
"Section Chief, there are ways to get Yaohua to rent the land. Can we put pressure on the village committee and directly ruin their land rental?"
Qin Fengyuan's eyes narrowed, "It's easy to say, if the villagers in those four towns knew about it, not only the county building, but even the government building in Shenguang City would be smashed down by them."
