Chapter Thirty-Two: Previous Observation

  Damn browser... it took half a day to finally upload...

  ====================

  "These vegetables are also good varieties, at least I haven't seen such seeds in Japan so far..." Oshima was after all a researcher, and once he got excited, words just spilled out.

  "Cough, cough, cough..." Otsu Yū hurriedly coughed several times, and ōshima finally came to his senses, chuckling as he said he'd go take a look at the others. Then he walked away.

  One after another, Japanese experts came to Otsu's side and whispered their observations. Otsu's face became increasingly flushed.

  It's clear to everyone that Otsu is obviously very satisfied with this inspection. The experts he brought are constantly taking pictures of the vegetable garden.

  Li Sanping watched these Japanese people's continuous movements, and laughed in his heart. The more carefully they observed, the more it showed that they attached great importance to this matter.

  The higher one's asking price, the more room for negotiation.

  "Mr. Nelson, have you figured it out?!" Liang Sanping quietly approached Nelson and whispered to him: "Otsuka Yoshitaka has already seen the economic benefits here, I think the next cooperation is inevitable..."

  Nelson was also observing just now. He is also the first time to come to this cultivated land. Although there were guarantees from Professor Liu and others before, he still felt uneasy without personally verifying it.

  And after observing for a while, Nelson was convinced that everything here was absolutely worth his adventure this time.

  "Hmm... you're absolutely right! Liang, from now on, don't be so polite and call me Mr. Nelson. Just call me Nelson!" Nelson nodded thoughtfully at Liang Sanping.

  "What price do you think is suitable?!" In Nelson's view, Liang Sanping was undoubtedly a wise and intelligent person. This young man had wisdom that did not match his age.

  "It depends on Japan's market conditions..." However, Liang Sanping smiled slightly and said: "I don't understand the Japanese market, but I think we can float the price..."

  Nelson isn't a fool, and upon hearing this, his eyes lit up. Smiling, he nodded, knowing what Liang Sanping wanted to do.

  "This matter, Nelson, it's easier for you to discuss than us." Liang Sanping smiled slightly and turned around to leave. This matter will be settled with this, Nelson naturally knew what he should do.

  At this time, the Japanese who had been busy for half a day finally finished their investigation. At this time, the people working in the vegetable field were also preparing to finish work.

  The canteen on the other side has already transmitted a wave of fragrance, and the staff are not foolish people who smell this fragrance and know: Today's canteen must have meat dishes! And it's big meat!

  "Dong, dong, dong..." At this time, the manual bell rang out. Suddenly, that plump kitchen aunt smiled and shouted: "Dinner is ready! Dinner is ready~ Today there's delicious food! If you're late, you'll only get soup!"

  Professor Liu and others couldn't help but smile, saying to Otsu Yunosuke and the others: "Since it's already time for dinner, let's eat first! After we finish eating, we can continue..."

  "Alright! You arrange it then......" Otsu In smiled and bowed to Professor Liu, then nodded at the experts behind him who had followed him here before heading towards the cafeteria.

  Today, Xing Cheng'an and others knew that Otsu Yor and others were coming to inspect the vegetable garden, but they didn't follow them either. Mainly because they had a big battle that day and drank too much, so they were all resting.

  But then Xing Cheng'an arranged for some meat to be sent over to the vegetable garden, after all, guests have come and must be treated well.

  It was just that a few cadres came earlier and seemed to want to continue drinking. They called Professor Liu to glare back, they were here to inspect, not to drink.

  That day, Professor Liu was very unhappy and it's a miracle he didn't lose his temper. How could they still tolerate their nonsense?! Those officials were quite sensible and left on their own when they saw that Professor Liu was displeased.

  Although Chinese and Japanese people look very similar, the difference can be seen when queuing up. The Japanese side is almost all quiet, quietly waiting for dinner.

  And on this side of Jianghai Farm, everyone was chatting and laughing while waiting for dinner.

  The aunt who serves meals today was asked to change into a white work uniform and also put on a mask. It is said that it is required by the higher-ups, paying attention to image and international influence.

  The aunt who serves the meal does not know what international influence is, nor does she understand what image means. She just thinks it's okay to wear like this, and besides, when she takes this suit back home, she can have it altered for her kid to wear, right?

  Everyone sat in the vegetable garden to eat with a smile. Due to the tight working hours, although the infrastructure team came to build, it was not completely built.

  The construction of the large cafeteria cannot be completed in one or two days. Fortunately, most of the workers are from nearby brigades and it is convenient for them to go home. The workers who were called by the Hot Workshop can only squeeze into the big dormitory.

  "Hey Oshima-san, don't you think this feels like a picnic?!" But then Otsu Yū smiled and said to Oshima: "This is what it's like to have a meal in the wilderness, how long has it been since we've had an experience like this...?"

  "Yes! Last year's cherry blossom viewing, I didn't accompany my family to go. Speaking of which, I feel a bit guilty towards my wife and daughter, but this is also an unavoidable thing..."

  Oshima held his lunchbox and gazed at the lush green mountains, sighing: "I wish I could retire as soon as possible, so I can spend more time with my family."

  "Haha... That's what I'm hoping for!" Otsu Yū smiled in response, while Ryō Sanpei and Xia Zhendong on the side didn't have any thoughts of retirement.

  Two people took advantage of dinner and began to discuss how to make the most of this inspection to benefit Jianghai Farm and even the whole island.

  "Fix the road! We must fix the road, otherwise no matter how good our crops are, we can't transport them out." Liang Sanping held his rice bowl and said to Xia Zhendong while eating: "Even if it's a mountain of gold or silver, you still need a road to get it out!"

  "This principle is understood by everyone, but repairing the road is not a simple matter." Xia Zhendong held his rice bowl and sighed: "The most basic thing is where does the money come from? Where do people come from? Where do materials come from?"

  "Now it's so troublesome to submit a report, let alone ask the country for money." After a pause, Xia Zhendong said to Liang Sanping: "Moreover, you're not unaware of the current situation in our country. Everywhere is short of money, and our reports will definitely not be approved..."

  Li Sanping eats very quickly, and with a few mouthfuls he has already finished his rice. He stretches out his chopsticks to grab some braised pork from Xia Zhendong's bowl, but Xia Zhendong sees this and hastily covers his own bowl, cursing.

  "Smelly brat! Doesn't even know how to respect elders and care for the young. Finished eating and still comes to steal my meat!"

  "Heh heh heh... I'll eat this meat, and you give me ideas. We can definitely make money to fix the road, and we don't even need to spend our own money." Liang Sanping said with a sly smile.

  Back at eighteen years old, Old Liang is now Young Liang. When growing up, there were never enough things to eat.

  "Really?!" Xia Zhendong's eyes widened in surprise, and he couldn't believe it. He thought about what method could be used to repair the road without spending any money.

  As he hesitated, Liang Sanping directly picked up a big piece of braised pork head from the bowl and took a big bite.

  "Hey! You little stinker! Do you have to eat so fast?! " Xia Zhendong looked at Liang Sanping with a mixture of laughter and tears, scolding: "Little turtle egg, you've eaten the meat, now quickly come up with an idea for me!"

  "Heh heh heh...... This meat was snatched by me, not given by you. I won't say anything!" Liang Sanping smiled slyly and said: "Unless you get me another piece of meat!"

  Xia Zhendong was about to be beaten by Liang Sanping, who had a rascal's temper and jumped up at him. Just then, a chopstick reached into Liang Sanping's bowl and dropped in a piece of braised pork belly.

  Liang Sanping and Xia Zhendong were stunned, looked up and saw Professor Liu.

  "You little scoundrel! Why did you snatch Old Xia's meat to eat?! The old man's meat is for you to eat, eating more braised pork can nourish your brain. After nourishing your brain, quickly tell the old man what method you use to make money."

  Li Sanping quickly picked up the meat and put it back in the old man's bowl: "Teacher, you're killing me! If I eat all the meat from your bowl, what kind of person would I be?! You eat, and I'll think of a way!"

  Liu Lao Shi laughed and looked at Liang Sanping, who respectfully put the meat back into his own bowl, staring at him. Meaning that today you don't give this old man an explanation, you can't just get away with it like this.

  Xia Zhendong couldn't help but burst out laughing as he watched Liang Sanping eat his humble pie. So you're afraid sometimes, little Liang? I thought you were fearless! When we got to Qiongzhou Port, you dared to beat someone up in front of the regional commissioner at a hotel!

  Went to the imperial capital, and you dare to play tricks in front of a group of foreigners. This group of people almost forgot his age and treated him as if he were the same age as themselves.

  "It's actually no big deal." Liang Sanping chuckled and said, "We can take out a loan!"

  "A loan?!" Professor Liu furrowed his brow and said, "Tell me carefully, what kind of loan method?! The country's money is not abundant now, it's not easy to lend out..."

  "Contract! Supply and sales contract!" Liang Sanping said with full confidence: "As long as Daijin allows this inspection to be successful, and signs a supply and sales contract with us. We will be able to use this contract to get loans from the state!"

  "This time we planted not many vegetables, even if one mu yields 10,000 catties, it's just 5 million catties of vegetables. But this supply and marketing contract is very important, which means we can create foreign exchange!"

  Liang Sanping said, pausing for a moment: "Moreover, our production capacity will increase again, as long as we can succeed this time. Then the country will undoubtedly allow us to increase production capacity."

  "What about this time?!" Xia Zhendong frowned and asked Liang Sanping. Liang Sanping sighed upon hearing this: "We need to have achievements in order to attract funding. If we don't have achievements, where will the funding come from?"

  "This time, let's leave from Lucheng. We're not far from Lucheng, less than 100 kilometers away. The car ride will take at most two hours, it's a bit of trouble but as long as we can mobilize the fleet, it's still doable."

  But then Liang Sanping smiled at Xia Zhendong and Professor Liu, saying: "A 500,000 jin export task, I think the leaders of Guangdong Province will definitely not hold us back. As long as the agreement is signed, do we still worry that no one will pave the way for us?
