My 1995 Small Farm.

……

"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, for so many years, we never heard of water-injected meat or water-injected chicken. After the reform and opening up, we didn't need to be taught at all. It was already in our genes, and we knew how to do it on our own."

China's more than two thousand years of small-scale peasant economy has encountered the market economy.

Without management and constraints, problems are bound to arise.

This is perfectly normal.

Because small-scale farming is undisciplined; as long as money can be made.

Making and selling counterfeit goods, passing off inferior goods as superior ones, cheating and swindling—they don't need to be taught; they'll figure it out themselves.

Construction began, and Chen Ling and Liang Yuemin sat by the large stove at the construction site, tending the fire and discussing matters.

Chen Ling's words made Liang Yuemin fall into deep thought.

After a long pause, he asked, "Then what should we do?"

He felt that since Chen Ling had brought it up, there must be a solution.

Or rather, they already have an idea.

"Let's take it slow. Next, we need to become the industry benchmark, starting with quality and price, and gradually take over the national market."

"...That's a bit arrogant. Actually, there's no need to wait until we've conquered the entire national market. Once we've taken over the major northern provinces, it'll be time for us to set the rules."

Chen Ling had a clear plan in mind.

"Our People's Army liberated the whole country by encircling the cities from the countryside, but now, the purchasing power in the countryside is not yet keeping up. Instead, we need to radiate and influence the countryside from the cities."

Let the city take the lead.

Once the city's rules are established and discipline is restored, it will gradually influence the countryside.

"Good brother, what you said is so true. I used to feel very annoyed when I saw this kind of thing, but I didn't know what to do. I even thought that these things were not my business."

I don't have that much ability.

Later, I gradually stopped thinking about such things and decided to focus on my career first.

After all, I haven't even done a good job with my own career yet, I haven't succeeded!

Liang Yuemin said excitedly.

He hadn't expected that hearing Chen Ling's words would exert influence in other ways.

It doesn't require seizing power or drastic measures, but rather a method that sneaks in like a spring breeze in the night.

Counterfeiting, piracy, fraud, and deception have existed since ancient times... There are sayings like stuffing sand into chickens, blowing air into geese and sheep, and mixing ash into salt... Things that conceal evil are disguised as novel, and fake things are disguised as real.

Rice and wheat should be moistened, and meat should be given water.

Selling salt mixed with ash, selling lacquer mixed with oil, selling medicine and exchanging it for other things—the list goes on and on…

As Chen Ling spoke, he shook his head again: "Although it's true that counterfeiting existed in ancient times, making people naturally skilled at it, what was the scale of it back then, and what's the situation now? Think about it, if it were rampant now, would it work?"

Chen Ling couldn't say much about food safety.

After all, many potential problems have not yet emerged.

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuemin sighed: "Alas, yes, the business world is like a battlefield. People say that once you're on the battlefield, you have to use any means necessary to survive. You can use any dirty tricks you can think of."

A black cat or a white cat is a good cat if it catches mice.

But I always felt that doing things this way would definitely lead to bad things in the future.

"If you hadn't brought it up, Fugui, I would never have understood or been able to summarize these issues."

"The current market environment is extensive, unregulated, and just beginning, but it is also a time of great diversity and development for all industries."

Chen Ling said, "All industries are waiting to be developed. In fact, each industry has gradually become standardized step by step."

The same goes for the market.

However, this standard mainly depends on the person who starts it and how well they make a good beginning.

If they start something bad, they'll use any underhanded method to make some money.

Then everyone who follows will try to imitate them, and then everything will be in chaos.

"...I understand. This is what you meant by setting a benchmark for the market with the instant noodle industry, which we have achieved so much with."

We must be role models, we must be pacesetters.

Liang Yuemin's eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt a surge of emotion.

I felt that my idea of ​​fighting for national enterprises was somewhat superficial in the face of Chen Ling's ideas.

"Let's not talk about model workers or anything like that. We just need to do our jobs well and do everything to the best of our ability. I have a simple plan here right now."

Let's give it a try first and see how it goes.

Chen Ling knew that any good idea needed to be tested.

It was only gradually expanded and spread out completely.

Braised beef noodles are currently experiencing rapid growth.

This is the stage where it is easiest to be blinded by the appearance of prosperity and overlook many details.

"Okay, I'll think about how to implement it over the next few days. What was that phone call you got this morning? Was it the livestock magazine urging you to write something again?"

"No, it wasn't about writing anything. They asked me when I was going to Beijing after the New Year, and they wanted me to bring some of my domestic chickens and ducks so they could do an experiment."

Chen Ling smiled.

The National Animal Husbandry Magazine still has his stuff on their minds.

"Oh, right, but speaking of which, it seems you have a lot to do after the New Year."

Liang Yuemin said, "You've started worrying about my side too, with livestock magazines, sterile maggot cultivation, my own writing, and even college entrance exams."

"Are you sure you can handle all this?"

"Haha, Uncle Zhao and Uncle Qin said the same thing yesterday. Actually, although there seem to be a lot of things to do, there aren't many things that I actually need to do. The hardest part is the waiting time."

We hope for a good outcome and have also planned for the best possible future.

But this waiting process is unavoidable, so it feels like there's a lot going on.

Chen Ling smiled gently; he was 100% confident about passing the college entrance exam.

Even if you don't use back channels or connections.

With his current memory and accumulated knowledge, he has no problem with anything except English and mathematics.

But for English and math, it's said that a junior high school level is enough to pass.

This is more than enough for his current learning ability.

Therefore, you don't need to treat taking exams as a big deal.

The one who really needs to be busy preparing is Wang Susu.

"Oh right, I haven't asked you what major you want to choose in college yet."

With anticipation in his eyes, Liang Yuemin said, "How about choosing finance or business administration? After graduation, they can take over my job, let me rest for a few years, and enjoy being a hands-off boss."

Chen Ling shook his head, disappointing him.

"My choices are either agriculture or animal husbandry, or anything related to plants and animals; I'm not considering anything else for now."

"Huh? With your talent, you've really spent your whole life struggling with these things?"

Liang Yuemin didn't understand.

He felt that Chen Lingzhen possessed a visionary perspective and keen intuition that was unmatched by anyone else.

He didn't know that this was actually purely from God's perspective.

"Never forget your original aspiration."

Chen Ling gave a brief response, showing no interest in further explanation.

"Oh, the phone."

Just then, a phone call came in; it was from the Beijing area.

Chen Ling thought it was about the TV series that was about to air.

Unexpectedly, when I answered the phone, it was about the wolf.

It's the tiny wolf cub that Chen Ling caught before the New Year, which is suspected to be a female wolf.

The other party said that after a month of blood tests and verification from multiple sources,

There is indeed an over 80% chance that this thing is a jackal.

Strangely, upon comparison, many of the results from the so-called "jackal" test did not resemble those from a wolf pack; rather, they resembled those from a dog.

Or rather, it's closer to a dog.

"Closer to a dog? Can you really be that powerful if you're closer to a dog?"

Chen Ling immediately frowned: "Even a dog wouldn't dare breathe loudly when it sees a wolf." (End of Chapter)
