Traveling through 70's wine

Li Zhonghua immediately called the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and asked the laboratory to send someone over, and everyone discussed how to carry out publicity.

Li Zhonghua is responsible for the promotion of good varieties, and Su Qing still goes out every day. She mainly focuses on the movements of the Eagle Company and follows their people to find the warehouse.

A few days later, the Eagle Company began to collect grain. They had a grain processing plant in Suihua. The grain purchased here was first transported to the local warehouse and then shipped to Suihua by train.

Su Qing closely monitored the storage of grain. When most of the grain was stored and began to be transported out, one night, Su Qing quietly went to collect all the grain in their warehouse into her own space, and then swaggered back to the hotel.

The next day, the Eagle Company received news from the warehouse that 3,000 tons of grain had disappeared. They hurried to the police station to report the case. The police station went to the warehouse to investigate and found no traces at all. Even if a large truck was used to transport 3,000 tons of grain, it would take more than one day to transport it. The Eagle Company checked the surveillance video at the door of the warehouse and indeed did not find anyone approaching. The police station also began to doubt whether they had so much grain. This did not seem like a public security case, but more like a supernatural incident. In the end, it was decided not to file a case.

When Li Zhonghua and Zhou Yu heard about this, they applauded and quickly took the experts from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences to the Agricultural Reclamation Bureau. They begged Ji Ming'an to gather the farm cadres and introduced the Academy of Agricultural Sciences' high-quality varieties to everyone. They especially introduced their own rice with thick stalks, long ears, and large, full grains, which were no worse than the seeds of the Xiongying Company. The Academy of Agricultural Sciences also recorded a video and showed the conditions of their experimental fields to the farm people.

After the introduction, not many people expressed their desire to buy Changxia Company's grain seeds, and most people were skeptical.

Li Zhonghua took out samples to show everyone, and the grains were indeed large and full. He introduced to everyone that this was a hybrid variety selected based on the famous rice in Northeast China. It was particularly suitable for the cold climate here and tasted good. It was a variety loved by Chinese people. He also introduced the planting method of this rice and suggested the use of greenhouse dry breeding methods for seedling cultivation to prevent early spring frost damage. He also imparted the land cultivation and field management experience summarized by experts in the experimental fields.

Li Zhonghua promised that if they purchased their grain seeds, they would purchase them at a price slightly higher than the government's purchase price.

Now some farm managers became interested and said that they would set aside a certain area for trial planting next year. Although it did not fully meet Changxia Company's expectations, it had taken the first crucial step. Li Zhonghua still had a glimmer of anticipation in his heart.

Su Qing did not immediately hand over the grain she had collected from the Eagle Company to Zhou Yu. Instead, she returned to Pingjing and found a warehouse to take the grain out of the space. She then organized a convoy to transport part of the grain to Shenyang and the other part to the granary of the Changxia Grain Company, which was considered as additional grain purchased by the head office.

This time, the amount of grain that was taken into the warehouse of the Eagle Company was as much as 3,000 tons, which was more than the share lost by the Changxia Grain Company in the Northeast, so the processing plant no longer had to worry about raw materials.

She has always abided by the law, but it is different when facing the enemy.

Although the practice of Xiongying Company in Northeast China has not spread to other places, Changxia Grain Company has not relaxed its vigilance and continues to promote improved varieties in other grain-producing areas in China together with the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

Their laboratory has launched different high-quality varieties based on the climatic characteristics of domestic grain-producing areas. Although they have not promised to purchase grain at high prices in other regions, the launch of high-quality varieties will invisibly increase the difficulty for foreign grain seed companies to dump grain seeds.

The practice of Changxia Grain Company also attracted the attention of the national agricultural department, which specifically sought out Li Zhonghua for a talk. Li Zhonghua reported his concerns to the leaders, hoping that the state could step in to target the invasion of foreign grains into China.

His words resonated with only a few people, but most people believed that Changxia Grain Company was acting out of its own interests. They thought that no matter whether it was domestic seeds or foreign seeds, as long as they were high-yield grain seeds, the people would be the ultimate beneficiaries.

Instead, these people began to investigate whether Changxia Grain Company had engaged in unfair competition and false propaganda. After repeated verification, it was confirmed that Changxia Grain Company's grain varieties did have higher yields than ordinary grain varieties, and that there was no illegal behavior in the process of promoting grain varieties. The matter was finally settled.

The Eagle Company lost 3,000 tons of grain, but it was not a serious loss. The warehouse manager was replaced, and the person in charge of the China region decided to further promote their grain seeds in other farms in the Northeast. They recruited children of the former Agricultural Reclamation Bureau and visited each farm one by one, promising that as long as a certain amount of their grain seeds were purchased, the Eagle Company would organize farm leaders to visit their farms abroad to conduct on-site inspections of the planting conditions of these grain seeds.

It was very difficult to go abroad at that time. Not only did the farmers have no chance to go abroad, even the farm managers had never been abroad for inspection. This measure stimulated some people's enthusiasm to purchase grain seeds from the Eagle Company.

Zhou Yu learned about the competitive tactics of Xiongying Company and reported it to Li Zhonghua. Li Zhonghua had no choice but to say, "True gold is not afraid of fire. Everyone will know whether their seeds are good or not after planting them. What's so great about going abroad? We can also organize a seminar. We will hold a seminar on Hainan Island next year."

Although it is not going abroad, the Northeast is cold in winter and Hainan Island is warm, so I think everyone would like to go.

While the people on the farms hibernate in the winter, Zhou Yu is not idle. He keeps visiting various farms, distributing the high-quality seed cultivation atlas given to him by Li Zhonghua to everyone, organizing personnel to conduct on-site grain planting training, and subtly passing on Changxia Company's high-quality grain seed cultivation technology to everyone.

The most important thing is that their grain seed farms can save their own seeds. Generally, it will take three years for the grain seeds to gradually show a certain reversion to their ancestral state. However, if the seeds are carefully saved and selected, high yields can still be maintained. Even with extensive management, the farm can save money on purchasing grain seeds in the second and third years of planting, further reducing planting costs.

In the spring, Zhou Yu's work achievements began to show. All the major farms in Jiamusi had purchased grain seeds from Changxia Company to varying degrees. That is, more people would go to Hainan Island for inspection in the winter. He silently calculated that even if there were only two people going to each farm, there would be 2 to 6 people going to Hainan Island for seminars in the winter.

The problem of grain procurement by the Northeast Company has been resolved. Su Qing is more concerned about the cooperation between Changxia Grain Company and Agricultural University. She took the initiative to visit the laboratory of Agricultural University. The director of the laboratory, Zhao Qiang, has a deep understanding of the generosity of Changxia Grain Company. Since the cooperation, no matter what request he made, Changxia Company was willing to pay. This time he met Su Qing and proposed to establish an experimental base in the south. The south is warm, with multiple harvests a year, and crops grow faster.

After Su Qing understood their needs clearly, she went back and called Yang Jiesheng, asking him to send someone to Hainan Island to purchase land. Hainan Island has warm weather all year round, and rice can be grown three times a year, so new grain varieties can be cultivated more quickly.
