Chapter 17 Village Land Reform
"Xiao Jiu, come over and finish your meal!"

After four o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Bajiu received a call from Liu Yuanzu.

"Okay!" After a little hesitation, Liu Bajiu still agreed.

Many times when people call you to eat, they don't really eat, but they have something to tell you!

"I'll ask Yun Chuan to pick you up!"

"No need, it's just a little way, I'll just walk over!"

"Aren't you afraid that people will make fun of you?"

"It's good to get used to it. If you don't show up all the time, it will make them feel rare."

Since you have decided to stay at home for a long time, you must not miss people. There are so many Liu family members. The more you hide people, the more curious you will be. The more you can’t see them, the more you want to seize the opportunity to say something about you.

People, you have to care about other people's eyes, but don't care too much.

On a rainy day, the road was slippery, so Liu Bajiu casually took the bamboo stick under the eaves and went down the mountain.

"Bajiugong, your old man has already put on a bamboo stick?"

"Uncle Bajiu, are you going to your ancestors again?"

Liu Bajiu crossed Liujiawan and came to the gate of the courtyard amidst a burst of yin and yang teasing.

The door was not closed, Liu Bajiu pushed it open without any hassle.

Liu Yuanzu swayed back and forth on the recliner, smoking a cigarette, reading a thread-bound book in his hand. Although he didn't have a long beard, he still looked like a fairy.

"Come and sit down, Yun Chuan said that he has something to discuss with you."

Liu Bajiu nodded, and didn't ask anything. He guessed in his heart that it was mostly about land reform.

Looking at the books in the old man's hand, Liu Bajiu asked: "Do we have a lot of books in our family? What year are they all from?"

Liu Yuanzu put the books on the table, rubbed the bridge of his nose and said, "Not many, only a hundred or so. Most of them are manuscripts from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are a few from before, a bamboo slip and a few jade plates. There is still a piece of animal bone, but unfortunately no one knows the characters on it, it is not oracle bone inscriptions!"

There are many carriers of words, all of which can be regarded as books, and the invention of paper is only 2000 years old.

Liu Bajiu wanted to look through the collection of books, but the old man agreed directly.

After chatting for a few words, Liu Yunchuan came.

"Hello Gaozu, Lord Bajiu is here!" Liu Yunchuan came here by himself.

"Come and sit!" the old man greeted.

Liu Bajiu nodded with a smile, and poured Liu Yunchuan a cup of tea.

"Thank you Bajiu Gong!" After sitting down, Liu Yunchuan thought for a while and smiled: "They are all from my family, so I will speak directly!"

"That's great!" Liu Bajiu nodded.

If my family still tries again and again, then it is not a family.

"The main reason for asking Bajiugong to come here is the land reform that was mentioned last time. The land reform should have been carried out a long time ago based on the conditions of our village. The reason why it hasn't started until now is mainly because we have been suppressing it!
As for the reason, the biggest problem lies in the division of interests. Other aspects are easy to talk about. After all, the land reform has already had a precedent, so just follow the usual practice.

But after the land reform, who will take over is a troublesome matter. Farming does not make money, especially the cultivation of staple food, but the land reform is a project for food security. "

Liu Bajiu nodded. Since the land reform is a project for food security, after the small fields are converted into large fields that can be plowed by machines, someone will naturally need to take over the cultivation.

For farmers, there is not much difference between large and small fields. Even after the land reform, farmers who have machine-plowed fields will not be able to plant them at all, or they will not be abandoned.

But even if the farmers don't plant, they can't just plant it for others. In this case, they can only introduce enterprises to contract these machine-plow fields, which requires contracting fees for farmers.

The state controls the price of staple grains very seriously. If it is said that planting cash crops such as sugarcane can make some money, then planting staple grains such as rice and wheat may not even recover the cost.

If it is added to the contracting fee for farmers, it will definitely lose money. Even if the state provides a certain subsidy, the subsidy cannot cover the cost, and the subsidy will decrease year by year.

"How did you operate it before?" Liu Bajiu asked.

"The project contractor is responsible for the next cultivation, at least three years." Liu Yunchuan said.

Liu Bajiu nodded and asked, "That is to say, the money earned from contracting the project can cover the losses from farming for three years?"

"It's about the same. There's no guarantee. After all, you're doing engineering. How much you earn depends on your ability. Farming depends on the sky!"

Liu Yunchuan smiled wryly, and said, "Like last year's rare high temperature for more than two consecutive months, and the management of machine farming is not so meticulous, so many agricultural companies have suffered serious losses!"

It's right to lose money. If you really make so much money, I'm afraid that this matter will fall on yourself before you come back.

"How many acres of machine-plowed land does our village have, and how much is the construction fund?" Liu Bajiu asked.

"The drawings submitted are 800 meters, plus 200 meters of river repair, a 600-meter-long two-lane bridge, two machine-cultivated roads totaling 4000 meters long and two meters wide, and a cement road with two lanes for each village. , the total project cost is [-] million!

However, the winning bid amount is 700% off, which is [-] million yuan, which includes the entire river channel repair project, the thickness of the machine-plowed road bed, the concrete grade and road bed thickness of the cement road, etc.

The profit should be [-]%, and at most no more than [-]%, but in the end it still needs to be [-]% to [-]%. "

"That is to say, the profit is between 800 million and 1000 million, and what I can get is 500 million to 700 million?" Liu Bajiu asked.

"No, the contractor can only get 200% of it. Except for the suppliers, the rest needs to be given to the gods of wealth. From the village to the town and the district, there are many places that need to be managed, including the three companies participating in the bidding. For rebates, you can get more than [-] million in the end!" Liu Yunchuan explained.

Only about 200 million.

In fact, there is not much difference between planting and planting in mechanical farming. If you want to plant well, you need to pay more costs. In the end, it is almost a tie. The reason why you need to plant is to complete the above tasks, so you must get to plant.

The loss is the contract fee paid to farmers.

The one-year contract fee for 40 mu of land is 120 yuan, and [-] million yuan for three years. If there is a natural disaster like last year, and the investment is small but the harvest is small, then there will be a loss of hundreds of thousands.

Almost for nothing.

The point is that these accounts are only theoretical, and it is absolutely impossible to operate them so smoothly.

For example, if farmers make trouble with you because of the land, once the construction period is delayed, the loss will not be small. After all, so many machines and personnel need to spend money.

If the location is not calculated properly, for example, the difficulty of the land reform is increased due to terrain and other reasons, etc., there will also be losses, and if there is any accident in the project, it will be over.

Generally speaking, it is calculated to make money, but there are many uncertain factors.

"I did it!"
