Chapter 122: Wan Hong's Counterattack
Liang Sanping took immediate action on this matter, and after returning to Qiong Island, he did not stay in Baoting. Instead, he personally rushed to the two hospitals in South China, and after meeting with Professor Liu Lao and others, confirmed that a new group of experts would take a batch of students to Baoting for on-site guidance and technical explanations to the Japanese side.
At the same time, Liang Sanping took over the contract with the autonomous state and Wan Hong Corporation. He applied to the bank for a loan of one million yuan, which was used to purchase fertilizers and seeds.
The fertilizer originally needed for the vegetable garden had been divided up long ago. It's been several months now, and it's all been used up. There's no way to get it back. Now is not the time to think about these things, so Liang Sanping can only go ahead and buy a batch of fertilizer first.
"Hey, is that Old Xia?! It's San Ping here! Can you please coordinate with Wen Chang and Wan Cheng to collect some of the farm fertilizer from their side? We urgently need it for the vegetable garden at Bao Ting..."
Liang Sanping started calling Xia Zhendong from the two temples, asking him to go to Wen Chang and Wan Cheng first to organize the transportation of fertilizer. The local fertilizer in Bao Ting was not that much, especially the farm manure.
"Right! Right! Communicate with Wen Chang and Wan Cheng, I'll ask Secretary Shen of the Autonomous Prefecture to make arrangements. First, transport those fertilizers over...". Since Liang Sanping had undertaken this task, he naturally had to go all out.
Besides, the contract with the Japanese side has already been signed, and he can only carry it out. Fortunately, everything has a complete plan now, and as long as we follow it, we can do it.
"Wancheng and Wen Chang, the leaders on that side, I've already talked to them before. They also agreed to this matter, now I'm temporarily unable to return to the two courts. So, I'll trouble Old Xia to help keep an eye on it..."
After discussing the matter of pulling manure with Lao Xia, Liang Sanping immediately called Wen Chang and Wan Cheng's local leadership office. The other party also readily agreed to Liang Sanping's request.
It's simple, all their current business was brought in by Liang Sanping. Moreover, it won't be long before everyone on the small island of Qiong knows what happened at Bao Ting. Everyone still has a lingering fear of Liang Sanping, knowing that he is not someone to be trifled with.
Now the leaders of the autonomous prefecture are also on his side, taking some farm fertilizer! Going with the flow and establishing a good relationship, no one will have trouble with Liang Sanping because of this. On the contrary, it will actively promote this matter.
Then, Professor Liu came forward to help Liang Sanping collect vegetable seeds from Yangcheng. After all, hundreds of acres of land, these seeds are not a small number. Liang Sanping himself came forward, others may not give him this face.
But Professor Liu's qualifications and experience were sufficient. If he went out to ask for these seeds, others would not refuse. With the help of Professor Liu and Ge Tai, the seed problem was quickly resolved.
Liang Sanping immediately rushed back to Bao Ting, what he had to do now was to appease the Japanese. The impact of this incident was too bad, if the Japanese were not appeased, then the subsequent problems would be unsolvable.
"Ryōsan, I didn't think we'd meet again under these circumstances..." said ōshima with a slight bow in the conference room of Hōtei County.
"I didn't think of that, it seems I've caused trouble for Mr. Oshima this time." Liang Sanping smiled slightly and gave a slight bow to Oshima before sitting down.
As Liang Sanping and others arrived at Bao Ting, there were also several technical personnel from the two institutes. On the other side of the island, they were Japanese technical personnel, including professors from Waseda University and students who came to intern.
It has to be admitted that the Japanese were very serious about their work at this time. After several professors from Waseda University brought students to the island, they conducted a comprehensive study of the planting environment, soil, climate and other aspects of the island.
It can be seen from their dark skin that they have been working hard in research during this period. Moreover, no one has ever heard of them raising objections to food, drink, accommodation and other treatments.
"Liang Sang, to be honest, we don't want to make things difficult for you..." After everyone sat down, Da Dao hesitated and said to Liang Sanping: "However, this matter is related to the quality of the products sold by our company. So, it's really making us pay attention."
Daisuke is still very concerned about Liang Sanping's "mysterious identity". It has to be said that Ye Jianwen and Liang Sanping's collaboration in acting is indeed very successful.
Even now, Daishan still can't figure out where Liang Sanping came from. Although he had inquired about it many times in the imperial capital, he couldn't get to the bottom of it. In fact, this also has something to do with Liao Bin and Ye Jianwen's methods.
Ye Jianwen and Liao Bin had also mentioned Liang Sanping to those yamen runners in some private or semi-public occasions, and explicitly told them that if they caused trouble for Liang Sanping, don't blame their hands being black.
The officials were not fools, since they knew the relationship between Ye Jianwen and Liao Bin with Liang Sanping. Naturally, they responded to Da Dao's inquiry with a laugh, leaving Da Dao confused.
It is. When dealing with Liang Sanping, Oshima will be extremely cautious. On the one hand, Oshima does not want to offend Liang Sanping, but at the same time, he also needs to guarantee the company's profits.
"Mr. Oshima is mistaken, I am absolutely not going to let your company suffer any losses." Liang Sanping smiled slightly and said to Oshima: "What your company is worried about now is the residual harmful components of pesticides that will affect the products. And today... we are going to discuss this issue..."
As he spoke, Liang Sanping introduced the experts from the two institutes in South China to Daishima. The project they were currently researching was the pesticide residue detection that Liang Sanping had initiated after starting vegetable cultivation.
After Liang Sanping learned that Bao Ting County began to outbreak of pests and diseases, he requested the two institutes in South China to conduct a research project. The project is how to configure pesticides in the most reasonable way while ensuring that these pesticides will be eliminated before the products are sold.
After all, it is only the initial planting period now, and there is still more than a month before harvesting in December. As long as the selected pesticide is effective, low-toxic and fast-acting, it can reduce residues.
Of course, this is used to deceive the Japanese. Liang Sanping himself had already made up his mind and also had a solution. But he absolutely wouldn't tell the Japanese what he was going to do.
He also thought that he could make some money from this! And what he had to do was to develop an industry that would be extremely avant-garde even in later generations - plant-based pesticides!
In the future, with the economic development of society and people's increasing demands for quality of life and food quality, green environmental protection, non-polluting agricultural products, green food and organic food will become the mainstream of consumption.
Many developed and moderately developed countries' commercial crops use pesticides and bactericides that will be largely biologized. There is no way, large-scale planting of agricultural drugs can't be completely unused.
In order to meet people's requirements for food not only to look good and be nutritious, but also to be safe, healthy, non-toxic, pollution-free and harmless, the development of bio-pesticides has become necessary.
"Biopesticides (i.e., bio-based pesticides), refer to active substances with pesticide effects from plants, microorganisms and animals."
This is a view mentioned in the book "Bio-Pesticides" with a preface by the President of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and this view has been widely accepted since then.
Plant-derived (i.e. botanical pesticide), environmentally friendly, easily degradable in air and soil, no accumulation, non-polluting, not easy to produce drug resistance, and can also stimulate plant growth.
However, the country's research on biological pesticide technology has never been interrupted. But due to various reasons, progress has been slow. Fortunately, Liang Sanping has been reviewing materials during this period. He believes that under his own material support.
Under the research of Hua and Nan two institutes, the first batch of biological pesticides will be developed soon. As long as the direction is determined, the investment of funds will quickly yield results.
"Ryosuke, it's not that I don't want to cooperate with you." Oshima said in a low voice as he watched the discussion between the professors from Waseda University and researchers from Huanan Institute, "But how can you guarantee the problem of pesticide residues?!"
"To know this technology is not just something we don't have. Even the United States, Britain, France... and so on, none of these countries have it." Oshima shook his head and said: "This is simply an impossible thing."
"You'd better give up! We can push the compensation to the next deal." However, Oshima said to Liang Sanping: "Such technology... at least for now, you and China can't find it."
Oshima's words caused a brief pause in the room. At this time, Miyagawa Yuka from Waseda University seriously said to Liang Sanping: "Liang, your detection method is different from ours."
"We are not only accountable to Wanbishi Corporation but also to the Cabinet. Therefore, any agricultural products with chemical residues cannot enter Japan."
However, the professor pushed his glasses and said: "At least for now, I know that there have been some research results on low-toxic pesticides in Japan, but as for your country... The current level of research is not attainable..."
The researchers of the two academies in South China couldn't help but blush with shame, what's more embarrassing than being told by others that your research level is low in front of a group of researchers?!
But they had no words to refute. Indeed, as of now, there is a huge gap between the domestic research level and that of Japan.
"Of course, you also have another option. That is to continue executing this treaty and then we will assist you in purchasing low-toxic pesticides from Japan." However, the professor smiled and said: "As for the cost, we can deduct it from the contract amount."
