C5 Unexpectedly

When Officer Qiu heard Song Ming say that, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

However, what Song Ming said was the truth. If they could not make the Luoshan Village improve even after three years of poverty alleviation, they would lose all their face. This was also the shame of Old Qiu before he retired.

"It should be possible this time. We have already proved it." Officer Qiu smiled and said, "We, the poverty alleviation officers, are not doing nothing. We are talking about theory and reality."

Liu Zhenhua smiled and said, "Yeah, Qiu Zhenhua is also thinking about us. In the first year, he felt that the hardware in our Luoshan Village was not good enough, so he first set up the radio station, office, and square. In the second year, he felt that the terrain here was not good, so he wanted to use breeding to replace planting. "

" Oh? Village Chief Liu, you know quite well about our poverty alleviation work." Officer Qiu looked at Liu Zhenhua in surprise. At first, he looked down on a young man like Liu Zhenhua. He thought that Liu Zhenhua had just graduated from university and knew nothing about rural work. He probably just wanted to make a gimmick and join a party. Then, he would run to a big city so that he could find a job.

Party members nowadays were different from before, they were very popular.

Especially those who went out to work in the countryside. The companies in other cities had very strict government checks. Who knew if you were a person who used to cheat people?

However, the party members were different. Once they went out, they would be labeled as "good people."

Officer Qiu thought that Liu Zhenhua was that kind of person who did not know anything. As a university student, he could not find a job in the provincial capital and still had to return to the countryside to work. It was really outrageous.

But when Officer Qiu heard Liu Zhenhua's analysis, he was shocked. This Liu Zhenhua indeed had some ink in his stomach.

Just as Liu Zhenhua had said, their Poverty Altering Team needed to get some hardware for the first year. They wanted others to see that their Poverty Altering Team was actually working in the Luoshan Village. The hardware was there. There was no problem with the news from the county television station.

In the second year, they also wanted to see if they could help the Luoshan Village live a good life. If they could not plant it, they would farm it. This was reasonable.

They did not expect that there would be a problem with breeding a cow-frog. This time, they wanted to plant a scenic tree to see if they could make some results.

Song Min was confused. Officer Qiu, it might not be good to plant scenic trees in this place. I thought about it. Why don't we raise black goats? Can't we raise black goats on the mountain? That's perfect."

"Black goat?" Officer Qiu shook his head. "Old Song, we've thought about it before, but this 200,000 yuan... How many sheep can you villagers buy? The cost is too high, and it costs a lot. Based on your current situation, it's not suitable."

"Besides, each of you raise a herd of sheep. Where will the sheep be sold in the future? If the production is overdue, there will be a big problem. The villagers will fight you to the death. "

Song Min was at his wit's end. He glanced at Liu Zhenhua and asked, "Zhenhua, what do you think?"

Liu Zhenhua was secretly happy when he saw that his attitude toward him had changed after he flattered Officer Qiu.

"It's still Officer Qiu who has great foresight. What kind of scenery tree is the Poverty Altering Team planning to plant?" Liu Zhenhua asked.

Liu Zhenhua had also thought of this problem. Whether it was raising frogs or sheep, they all needed technology.

If the whole village cultivated in large quantities, there would be problems like technology, funds, and sales. If these problems couldn't be solved, it would still be the same as before.

"King Coconut Tree." Officer Qiu blurted out.

"The King Coconut Tree?" Liu Zhenhua frowned slightly.

The King Coconut Tree was a type of tree commonly used in the southern courtyards for ornamental purposes. It was the largest and most spectacular coconut type plant in the garden. It was widely planted in the square, the roads were separated, and there were small paths by the river. It was one of the main trees in the southern town's garden.

There were also a few King Coconut Trees planted in their village square. But this scenery tree was very tall, so it might not be suitable to be planted on the hillside.

Officer Qiu smiled and said, "Yeah, aren't we setting up the village square? At that time, we bought eight King Coconut Trees. Do you know how much they cost?"

"I remember." Song Min recalled and said, "At that time, you said that one of them cost 2,000 yuan. They sold it to us at a cheap price. Later, we only charged 15,000 yuan for eight of them."

"Yeah, Old Song's memory is still good." Officer Qiu smiled in satisfaction.

Back then, the eight King Coconut Trees became the highlight of that year's poverty alleviation work. Some of the staff members who came down to inspect took photos under the trees, saying that the King Coconut Tree looked magnificent.

"When we first bought them, those trees were about ten meters tall. After these two years, it seems to be more than ten meters tall, right?" Officer Qiu asked Song Min.

Song Min said, "I think they should be there. Officer Qiu, we have been taking care of this King Coconut Tree for the past two years. How can it not grow? "

"That's right, Old Song. This King Coconut Tree is so expensive. Do you think we can make a lot of money by planting it?" Officer Qiu asked proudly.

"Of course we can." Song Min slapped his thigh and shouted excitedly, "A King Coconut Tree is sold for 2,000 dollars. If we plant 10,000 of them, my good boy, how much money will we get?"

"20 million yuan. Old Song, do you think your village can get rid of poverty this time?" Officer Qiu drew a flatbread for Song Min.

Song Min nodded with all his might. "Yes, yes, we will definitely be able to get out of poverty. We will also become rich. If we plant 100 trees in our family, we will have 200,000 yuan. We will have 200,000 yuan in a year. Which family will have a better life than us? "

Song Min stood up excitedly and pulled Officer Qiu." Let's go. We will buy the King Coconut Tree seedlings now and plant them immediately. I don't believe we can't let the Luoshan Village get out of poverty. "

Officer Qiu did not expect Song Min to be so anxious. Just as he was about to say that everyone would go ask for the price of the seedlings tomorrow, Liu Zhenhua spoke.

"Officer Qiu, Uncle Song, do you know? The growth of the King Coconut Tree is relatively long. It usually takes five years. It can only be sold when it reaches a height of more than five meters. Can the villagers wait until then? " Liu Zhenhua used his phone to search for information related to the King Coconut Tree.

Song Min was stunned. "Ah, five years?"

Song Min spread out his hands and counted, "Even if it's five years, our family can earn forty thousand a year. It's already out of poverty."

"We have to sell all of these King Coconut Trees to make money." Liu Zhenhua said, "Actually, it's not very difficult for us villagers to produce some products. The key is the sales. If the King Coconut Trees that we planted can't be sold, it will be very troublesome. "

"This kind of good stuff should be able to be sold." Officer Qiu shook his head and said, "Director Liu Zhenhua, you're worrying too much. If you can't think of anything, then we won't be able to carry out our work."

Officer Qiu was going to retire next year. This King Coconut Tree would take five years to see the results. At that time, the credit would no longer belong to him.

He only wanted to see the villagers of the Luoshan Village plant rows of King Coconut Tree seedlings. That scene would definitely be very spectacular.

At that time, he would ask the county television station reporters to come over and report on it. Then, he would be able to retire honorably.

As for the matter a few years later, he could not care about it, nor did he want to care about it.

Song Min nodded in agreement. "Zhenhua, what Officer Qiu said is right. Whatever we do, there are risks. We have experience with this kind of tree. Especially that King Coconut Tree, we have planted those eight trees for two years. Knowing how to plant them is similar to planting crops. It's not a big deal."

"That's right, our poverty alleviation group has considered this point and planted the King Coconut Tree. You don't need to hire any technical staff. Just buy the sapling directly and plant it. When it matures, you will sell it to earn a lot of money. Hahaha! " Even Officer Qiu was excited by the plan he had come up with.

This time, they could definitely help the Fallen Mountain Village get out of poverty. At that time, the higher ups would praise him for his guidance and he would be able to retire in glory.

Liu Zhenhua was a little worried and said, "We have more hills. The King Coconut Tree is planted on the hills. If it grows higher in the future, will it fall down?"

"We have also considered that we can plant it on the hillside that is not high. Don't you have other flat lands? We can plant it there too, just plant it more densely. Think about it, a King Coconut Tree that is more than two thousand yuan. That's a huge profit." Officer Qiu drew a grand blueprint for everyone once again.

"That's right, that's right. Officer Qiu, I think you've found the right path this time. We can give it a try." Song Min gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

"But the sales are still a big problem." Liu Zhenhua did not want to dampen the morale of Officer Qiu and the rest, but if they decided... They would spend the 200,000 yuan on poverty alleviation funds. This year, they would not have the money for poverty alleviation in the Fallen Mountain Village.

When Officer Qiu saw that Liu Zhenhua was still so worried, he smiled and said, "How about this, I'll call Boss He who sells the King Coconut Tree now. I'll use hands-free. All of you listen to the price of the King Coconut Tree now. "

"I'm not bragging. A year ago, a tree costs 2,000 yuan. Now, it might not be just this price. When you hear it, don't be so scared that you scream. Otherwise, people will laugh at you for being from the countryside. " As he spoke, he took out his phone and made a phone call.

After a while, the phone connected. Officer Qiu turned on the hands-free phone and said, "Boss He, do you remember who I am?"

"I remember. You are Boss Qiu. You bought eight King Coconut Trees here. I even brought some workers to help you transplant them. I remember your phone number." Boss He seemed very excited.

Officer Qiu suppressed his voice and said softly, "Listen, this Boss He is very powerful. He still remembers us. No wonder he earns big money."

Then, Officer Qiu raised his voice and said, "Boss He, we want to ask your King Coconut Tree..."

But before he could finish, Boss He continued, "Boss Qiu, we have a lot of King Coconut Trees in our nursery. You can have as many as you want. I will give you a 20% discount according to the market price. 400 dollars, how about it?"

"What? A 20% discount of 400 RMB in the market price?" Officer Qiu's eyes were wide open. What was going on? Wasn't it 2,000 RMB? Why was the market price 500 RMB?

"Boss Qiu, you can't lower our price anymore. Now that the business of the scenic trees in our nursery isn't doing well, you should lower your price. We really can't live anymore, I'm going to go bankrupt too. " Boss He said, "I was just about to call all of you old customers one by one to see if you still want the King Coconut Tree."
