The landlord's words did not anger Han Bin. He was not an incompetent person. He knew very well that there must be a reason why these landlords dared to say this!
"What's your reason?" Han Bin asked.”
Seeing that Han Bin was not angry, the landlord said seriously,""If County Head Han wants to develop the industry, we naturally have no objections. However, now that County Head Han had recruited almost all the young and strong people in the county, who would plant the fields next year?
If there was no strong labor to cultivate the land, the grain production in the coming year would definitely decrease on a large scale, and the food shortage would be even more serious. That's why we're here to ask County Head Han to stop recruiting young men!”
This time, these landowners were not being unreasonable. They were speaking the truth. Almost all the able-bodied men under the age of 40 had joined the Red Star Group. Even some middle-aged men between the age of 40 and 50 had joined the Red Star Group.
These people happened to be the main labor force for farming. Without labor force, only the old, weak, sick, and disabled were left to farm. The reduction of grain production was almost inevitable.
Han Bin laughed when he heard that. He thought it was something, but it turned out to be this!
Looking at their worried faces, he smiled and said,"I was wondering what it was, so it was this matter. The county had already expected this and had a corresponding response. Actually, even if you don't look for the county now, the county will look for you in a few days.
Have you heard of mechanical farming? In the case of a decrease in young and strong labor, the county's response was to adopt mechanized farming!”
In terms of the population of the country, there was no shortage of labor force in the country. Even if the industry was developed, there would be enough people to cultivate the fields.
However, from the planning and development of the next few years, the implementation of mechanized farming was an inevitable trend.
If it was in mountainous areas such as Guangxi and Yunnan, it would naturally be difficult to implement it. However, in the Huai River basin and the areas north of it, there were conditions to implement mechanized farming.
Of course, it was too early to say this, but for Lu 'an and the surrounding areas, the implementation of mechanized production was also necessary, because in the future, not only industrial development needed a large number of labor.
They also needed a large amount of labor in infrastructure and other aspects. These two aspects would take away a lot of labor. In addition, the Red Star Group would need to expand and all walks of life would need it. By then, there would not be many people farming in agriculture.
And even if there were, those people would probably be unwilling to continue farming. The difference in income between farming and working for the Red Star Group was too big.
However, the land had to be planted. Mechanization could come in handy at this time!
Han Bin's words made the landowners look at each other. Mechanized farming?
Don't think that they don't know about mechanized farming. Lu 'an was also a wealthy place in East China. There were frequent exchanges with the outside world here. Landlords like them had more or less come into contact with some things in the West. They had also heard about mechanized agriculture!
After all, the United States had completely mechanized agriculture. If the country wanted to order food from abroad, the first thing they would think of was the United States.
The landlord from before exchanged glances with the others, then looked at Han Bin and said,"County Head Han, we naturally know about mechanized agriculture.
However, mechanized agriculture requires machinery and equipment, and it also requires the ability to control it. However, our knowledge is shallow and we don't know how to control it.
Our entire Lu 'an County has a lot of fields, so the number of machines needed is a lot!”
"Alright! You don't have to worry about this matter. In the future, the county will open a tractor manufacturing factory and other agricultural machinery factories. As for the problem of not being able to use it, it's even simpler. When the time comes, the county will provide you with some professional talents to teach the tenants under your name!”
Han Bin looked at them and waved his hand. These landowners looked at each other, as if they wanted to say something, but in the end, they didn't say anything. They cupped their hands and left.
Watching them leave, Han Bin's eyes revealed a thoughtful expression!
Just as Han Bin was deep in thought, Zhu Lin's voice sounded from the side,""I wonder if County Head Han is free now?”
Han Bin turned his head and saw Zhu Lin walking into the hall on the first floor of the county government. He stood beside him and looked at him with a smile.
Looking at Zhu Lin who appeared, Han Bin smiled and said,""Master Zhu, no! He should be calling her Boss Zhu now. What brings Boss Zhu to the county government today?”
In the past half a month, Zhu Lin had been busy with his farm. Han Bin had also heard that Zhu Lin had acquired a lot of land to set up a farm. In the past half month, Zhu Lin not only bought piglet, chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep from farmers in Lu 'an, but also went to the surrounding counties such as Hefei, Huoqiu County Shou County Lujiang County and Chao to buy piglet, chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep.
It was said that Zhu Lin had spent more than 100,000 yuan on this. It could be said that he had invested a lot of money. However, this 100,000 yuan was nothing to him. Although he had lost his land, he used to have more than two million mu of land. The annual value of food production was not something that could be calculated by tens of thousands of yuan.
Hearing this, Zhu Lin immediately chuckled and said,""Today, I have come to look for County Head Han because I have something that requires his approval!”
Han Bin didn't say anything and only gestured for him to continue.
"This commoner has opened a farm beside the Pi River in the west of Lu 'an. I believe that County Head Han knows about this. Currently, the farm had already purchased 30,000 little pigs, over 5,000 cattle and sheep, and over 50,000 little chicks and ducklings.
The amount of food they were fed every day was not a small amount, so the commoner wanted to buy the swill from the Red Star Group every day to feed the livestock in the breeding farm!”
Zhu Lin told him the purpose of his trip. With so many livestock, they had to eat a lot of food every day. The swill was relatively cheap, so it was just right to feed the pigs. It could save costs.
There were now more than 200,000 people in the Red Star Group, and the amount of swill produced every day was not a small amount.
"So this matter. You can look for Han Cheng for this kind of thing. It's not a big deal!”
This kind of thing was a small matter for Han Bin. He could just look for Han Cheng.
Zhu Lin smiled when he heard this." Other than this, I have another matter. I would like to invite County Head Han to take a look at my farm!"”
Han Bin frowned slightly when he heard that. He looked at Zhu Lin's eyes and pursed his lips before saying,"Forget it! You wait here for me for a while. I'll go up first!”
Zhu Lin cupped his hands and waited. Han Bin went upstairs and delayed for a few minutes before coming downstairs. Then, he brought Zhu Lin and his guards straight to Zhu Lin Farm in the west of Lu 'an County.
Zhu Lin's farm was by the Pi River, not far from the county town, only five or six kilometers away.
It hadn't rained during this period of time, and the road was dry. It wasn't as difficult for trucks and cars to drive on it as before. The distance of five to six kilometers was covered in just over ten minutes.
Han Bin got out of the car and looked at the rows of huts in front of him. He heard the sounds of chickens, ducks, and even pigs coming from inside. Han Bin smiled and shook his head.
Zhu Lin did not quite understand what Han Bin meant. He could not help but ask softly,"I wonder what County Head Han thinks is different about this farm?”
Han Bin didn't answer his question. Instead, he took out an ID and threw it to Zhu Lin."I know your purpose for coming here today. This certificate belongs to the Deputy Chief of the General Affairs Department.
I am aware of your worries. Don't worry! I will keep my word. After you raise the livestock in your farm, I will take them all. However, the county still has a choice for you.
The county's Red Star Group is about to be officially established, and the preparations for the various departments of the company are almost complete. However, there is a position that is currently vacant. If you are interested, you can come and take up the position.”
Zhu Lin looked at the documents in his hand and was very happy. In fact, this was the reason why he came to look for Han Bin today. That was why he kept calling him a commoner.
Previously, he was appointed as the Deputy Section Chief of the General Affairs Department. It had been so long since the appointment certificate was issued, but there was no news of his entry certificate. In addition, he had spent so much money on this farm. If Han Bin did not want it, he would suffer a huge loss!
However, when he heard that Han Bin had a vacancy, he was a little interested. He wanted to know what position it was!
