Chapter 156
In March, the cold of winter gradually faded from Bangta City. In the suburban wilderness outside the city, a lot of greenery can already be seen emerging from the ground, and the wind will no longer feel the piercing chill on the face. Under the scorching sun, there was even a hint of warmth.
Xu Yi glanced at the village of Koror not far to the left, pointed to the distance, drew a circle in the air, and finally pointed to the Sandy River that was rolling past the horizon.
"Cantona, don't care about the fruit forest that already exists here. How you got it in the past will be the same in the future. However, there is no place where fruit trees are planted in this area, and all fruit trees are planted. This is the future Bangta. It is best not to have other factors in the fruit production base in the city. In addition, if possible, the same fruit should be planted together as much as possible in the future, which will not only facilitate planting and harvesting, but also facilitate brand building in the future.”
As Xu Yi spoke, Cantona nodded desperately, and took out a small notebook from his arms to keep recording.
Seeing the crooked words Cantona wrote on the paper, Xu Yi couldn't help but shook his head with a smile.
After all, this Cantona was just an ordinary farmer before, and he had not received any formal education since he was a child. He learned to read and write literately after the establishment of the Cantona Chamber of Commerce last year. Of course, the written characters are very ugly.
However, Xu Yi admired his attitude very much.
Cantona has a very good business vision and a flexible mind. At the same time, he has such a desire and understanding of learning at the age of 30. It can be said that it is quite rare.
I haven't been able to get ahead before, entirely because I don't have a chance.
But since he obtained a small magic harvester through the ordinary farmer support program provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, he seized this opportunity and relied on a mere small magic harvester. In just one year, a Cantona Chamber of Commerce was established, which almost took over the farmland harvesting business in Bangta City and several nearby cities.
During the autumn harvest last year, the Cantona Chamber of Commerce earned more than 5,000 gold coins just by completing the harvesting of farmland in Bangta City and several surrounding cities.
With this money, he even came up with the extremely advanced idea of renting a large piece of farmland by himself.
When Xu Yi heard him propose this idea to himself. Even almost thought that it came from the earth.
Out of appreciation for Cantona, Xu Yi immediately expressed support for Cantona's idea, and after negotiating with him, he decided on this cooperation project. Suggestions for the industrialization of agriculture.
According to Xu Yi and Cantona's plan, when Cantona successfully leased farmland from the City Lord's Mansion to three villages including Koror Village, Cambia Village and Mexico Village, the Cantona Chamber of Commerce will Basic food crops are mainly grown on the farmland of the villages of Cambia and Mexico. Such as rice, wheat, etc.
And in all suitable farmland in Koror Village, a variety of fruit trees will be planted uniformly.
As for what the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has to do, it is to determine the location of the first fruit canning factory in Koror Village.
In this way, the combination of production and processing can be achieved, which greatly saves the cost of both parties. It is a very favorable cooperation choice for both the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Cantona Chamber of Commerce.
Except for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Cantona Chamber of Commerce. The villagers in these three villages also benefited from this cooperation.
According to the agreement between Xu Yi and Cantona, as long as the villagers of these three villages have not yet joined the other chambers of commerce in Bangta City, some of them will enter the Cantona Chamber of Commerce for professional agricultural production, and the other will enter the Work as an ordinary worker in the fruit canning factory of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
The villagers of the three villages are close to 2,000. Apart from the old, the weak, women and children, and those who have entered the city's major chambers of commerce, there are still about 600 laborers who can work normally.
Among them, more than 300 of the youngest and the strongest were all left by the Cantona Chamber of Commerce. Because even with the help of small farmland magic machines, planting farmland is still a very physically demanding job.
In addition, the Cantona Chamber of Commerce has contracted farmland in three villages in one go. If they want to fulfill the food allowance that Earl Samo pays to him every year, they will inevitably increase their work, and those who are weaker may not be able to bear it.
In addition, about 300 laborers will enter the fruit canning factory to work.
The work of the fruit canning factory is relatively easy. It only requires simple processes such as canning, filling, and packaging, and it can be completed even if the physical strength is weaker.
In fact, workers are being recruited everywhere in Bangta City. If these 600 laborers are willing to go to the city to find jobs, they can definitely find suitable jobs.
However, the peasants around Bangta City were still deeply influenced by the traditional thinking on the Sainz Continent, and were easily reluctant to leave their villages. So I prefer to stay in my own village.
Now the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Cantona Chamber of Commerce are cooperating to open a large farm and fruit canning factory here, so that the farthest working location is only in the village next door. Of course, these people are very willing to join in.
And the Cantona Chamber of Commerce's commitment to the labor force who entered the Cantona Chamber of Commerce, their minimum monthly salary will be more than seven gold coins, which is almost equal to all their previous farming income for a whole year.
As for the workers in the fruit canning factory, although the monthly salary is slightly lower. Xu Yi also said on behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce that the minimum monthly salary of workers in a fruit canning factory will not be lower than hardware coins.
Even if the factory is going to recruit a gatekeeper, the monthly salary will be four gold coins.
Even if Cantona was from the village of Cambia, there would still be doubts about his promises, so that the work in these three villages did not go well.
But as soon as the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce joined in, the attitude of the villagers in these three villages changed immediately.
Although the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has been established for less than two years, the reputation of the people in Bangta City and the surrounding cities has surpassed that of many old-fashioned chambers of commerce.
And what the New Flying Chamber of Commerce does will always be promoted by many newspapers including "Banta Daily". Even if you don't read the newspapers, there will be people who read the newspapers to tell you. The billboards of the various magical machinery products of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce make it difficult for people to wonder whether the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not.
Compared to the Cantona Chamber of Commerce. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce reassured the villagers in terms of reputation and credibility.
What's more, Xu Yi came with the people from the City Lord's Mansion and was personally recognized by the Lord City Lord.
In the eyes of these ordinary villagers, the Lord of the City is like a god-like existence. As long as it is approved by the Lord of the City, the villagers have no idea of resistance at all.
So Xu Yi made a brief negotiation with the villagers of the three villages on behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Immediately received unanimous approval, so that this cooperation project can be carried out very smoothly.
Because of this, Cantona respects Xu Yi even more in his mind. As long as it is about this cooperation project, it can almost be called obedience.
Seeing that Cantona had written down all the points he said, Xu Yi nodded. Walk with him to the distant village of Koror.
Before entering the village, I could smell a fragrance blowing in the wind from a distance.
Xu Yi took a deep breath and felt the refreshing breath of this fragrance, revealing a look of nostalgia.
"It's been a long time since I smelled this smell. The last time I ate canned fruit made from rock sugar was at least twenty years ago..."
"Twenty years ago?" Cantonadi asked in confusion, "President Xu, twenty years ago, you were less than ten years old. Someone could make canned fruit back then? Why have I never heard of it?" Said? Such a good thing is supposed to have spread long ago."
Xu Yi suddenly woke up, he smelled the aroma of boiled fruit just now, but he accidentally missed his mouth.
"I ate it in my hometown. Only an old grandpa can make it. I learned this recipe from him because I thought it was delicious." Xu Yi explained vaguely.
"Oh..." Cantona had no doubts. I just said with some regrets: "If only this method could be spread out earlier, the fruits of our villages would not have to be rotten in the ground and no one would eat them."
Xu Yi smiled slightly: "Don't worry. I can guarantee that it won't take long, even if you don't need canned fruit, these fruits in Bangta City can also be shipped to other places on the Sainz Continent, so that people from other countries can You can also eat fresh Bangta City specialty fruits.”
"How is this possible?" Cantona clearly didn't believe it. "Let's not talk about other countries, it will take several days to transport it from here to Anweimar City. If it is really transported, I am afraid it will be broken long ago."
"Don't believe it?" Xu Yi showed a mysterious smile. "Then wait and see."
Seeing Xu Yi walking ahead with confident steps, Cantona couldn't help shaking his head.
Although this time and Xu Yi have been in contact with a lot of time. But the more contact with Xu Yi, the more Cantona found that he couldn't understand his thoughts, let alone keep up with his thoughts.
If Xu Yi only gave him the impression of a young, promising, energetic, visionary and courageous president of the Chamber of Commerce, then in Cantona's eyes, Xu Yi has become more and more Inscrutable.
If someone else told Cantona that the fruit can be shipped to other countries on the continent before it rots. Cantona must have thought and thought to argue that he must be talking nonsense.
But Xu Yi said this, although Cantona didn't believe it at the first time, but the thoughts turned in his mind, and he remembered the miracle created by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the past year or so, and the huge impact it brought to Bangta City and the surrounding cities. Change, but he involuntarily began to gradually believe.
Since President Xu said it can be done, then even if it cannot be done now, it will definitely be done in the future!
Thinking of this, Cantona suddenly patted his head hard.
Why should a small person like him guess the mind of a big person like President Xu?
Think so much to do? It's better to follow behind President Xu and work hard to do what you want to do. Naturally, you will be able to make money from the big tree of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
After figuring this out, Cantona grinned and quickly stepped up to catch up with Xu Yi in front of him.
