Chapter 45 Just pretend to be deaf and dumb

Chapter 45 Just pretend to be deaf and dumb
Jiang Ning got in the car and took a look. In fact, the 570 and the Land Cruiser are similar. The difference visible to the naked eye is that the gear lever of the 570 is electronic, while the gear lever of the Land Cruiser is mechanical. There are some differences in the interior as well, but they don't feel much different.

The prices vary greatly from region to region.

I got out of the car and took a look around, and saw the V6 on the back of the car.

Jiang Ning asked again: "Is this car a six-cylinder?"

Boss Li nodded and said, "The eight-cylinder one is too expensive. I can't afford it."

Jiang Ning asked: "Can the six-cylinder engine run?"

Boss Li said: "It's OK, of course it can't compare with Mr. Jiang's 570, but it's about the same as the Badao."

Jiang Ning was puzzled: "If you want to save face, why don't you buy a Mercedes?"

Boss Li said bitterly, "I can't afford a Mercedes-Benz. The cheap ones are too expensive, and the expensive ones are too expensive. The cars are expensive and suitable for CEO Jiang. For small bosses like us, we can only buy a Land Cruiser to show off our status."

Jiang Ning nodded, this was the truth.

Although Mercedes-Benz and BMW are good, they are indeed not easy to maintain.

There is no extra food at home, and we can’t afford to repair the damage.

In comparison, things for daily life are easier to maintain.

Not only is it tough and durable, but even if there's a scratch on the front, you won't notice anything if you don't repair it. But if you drive a Mercedes-Benz and get a scratch on the front, you'll have to repair it, which can cost thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. If you don't repair it, you'll feel bad.

They will even take the initiative to put themselves in the perspective of passers-by: driving a Mercedes-Benz but unable to afford to repair the car.

So Land Cruiser is still better.

Jiang Ning looked at the car and said, "Don't just enjoy yourself when you make money. Be nice to the workers and don't take advantage of them."

The two contractors nodded quickly and patted their chests to make assurances.

Jiang Ning gave a few instructions and Comrade Lao Yang called again.

He said that people from the Forestry Bureau had arrived, so he drove to Forest Area No. 1.

The people from the Forestry Bureau came for the wild rabbits.

Although wild rabbits are not included in the list of protected animals in the province, no one will care if ordinary people catch a few to satisfy their hunger. However, there are still some problems when catching and trading large quantities of them. The forestry department is the first to be concerned.

I have been informed several times.

This time we came directly to the farm, obviously we wanted to get some results.

Wild rabbits are a good thing. Although they cannot be eaten almost every meal like pork, they are quite good to eat occasionally. There are many people in Bei'an who like to eat rabbits, and basically one hundred rabbits can be sold every day.

One hundred dollars each, ten thousand dollars a day.

Although it’s not much, rabbit is also meat!

Three hundred thousand a month is three million a year.

This is no small sum of money.

Money can move people’s hearts!

We drove to the vicinity of the South Gate and saw several cars parked next to the No. 1 forest area.

A group of people stood at the edge of the woods, pointing and talking.

Comrade Lao Yang was with us, we were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was pretty good.

Jiang Ning stopped the car, got out and greeted Director Cao.

Others who knew him also greeted him.

Director Cao did not rush to talk about the rabbits, but talked about the trees on the farm: "The diameter of these trees is almost 20 centimeters. At this rate of growth, they will be mature by the end of autumn. With 20,000 acres of trees and such a high density, the economic benefits are considerable!"

Jiang Ning said: "Then the Director General must find a few more powerful customers, otherwise we won't be able to sell it."

Director Cao said, "Of course this is not a problem. It is our responsibility to help enterprises solve their problems! However, the forestry economy is different from other industries. Environmental protection is the most important thing now. The most money allocated by the government every year is used for afforestation. There are quotas for felling trees from the province to the city and county. It is no problem for you to cut down a few hundred trees, but if you want to cut down trees in such a large forest farm, not only will the county quota not be enough for you, even the city quota will not be enough for you. You still have to get quotas from the provincial department."

Jiang Ning said, "I don't even know which way the provincial department door opens. Who will recognize me when I go there? The director can't just ignore this. The Forestry Bureau has to help me get the quota, otherwise I can only sell some forage grass to barely maintain the farm."

Director Cao was quite helpless. If it was any other farm owner, no one would dare to negotiate conditions with him in person. However, Xianling Farm was too large now, with two million trees that were about to mature, and the economic benefits were really huge.

How much profit can there be from such a big piece of cake?

Not to mention the Forestry Bureau, even the county has to help find a solution.

Director Cao said, "We will definitely not get this year's quota. We can only strive for next year's quota. I will report to the county later. We need to run this matter early and try to get the provincial department to give Bei'an more special quotas next year."

Jiang Ning nodded: "Boss Yang will be in charge of this matter."

Comrade Lao Yang nodded and accepted the task without hesitation.

Director Cao did not say anything else and brought up the rabbit issue: "Boss Jiang, although wild rabbits are not protected animals in Bei'an, it is not a good idea for you to catch them and sell them so blatantly. If you are reported, we will also be in trouble."

Jiang Ning was puzzled: "Where did the wild rabbit come from?"

Director Cao was speechless and said, "I just saw some wild rabbits for sale at the gate."

Jiang Ning said calmly: "What the Bureau Chief is talking about is not a wild rabbit, but a rabbit raised on our farm."

Director Cao: “…”

other people:"……"

Damn it, this is really confusing right and wrong!

Previously, they said that there were too many wild rabbits on the farm. Now they are breeding rabbits. This is really...

But no one exposed it.

Director Cao pointed to a rabbit that had rushed out of the bushes not far away and asked, "Isn't that a wild rabbit?"

Jiang Ning said calmly: "Of course not, I also raised that rabbit."

Yang Zhen also chimed in, "That's right, Director Cao, don't believe everything you hear. The wild rabbits in Bei'an are all in the wilderness. How could they run into a private farm? If they were wild rabbits, our wire mesh has so many gaps that it couldn't stop them. They would have run away long ago. The rabbits here are all raised on our farm. Your predecessor, Director Shao from the Forestry Bureau, came to the farm a few days ago to instruct us on how to raise rabbits well. Our farm has put a lot of effort into raising these rabbits well."

The people from the Forestry Bureau looked at each other, their faces full of constipation.

Director Cao asked: "Can the rabbits we raise jump that high?"

Yang Zhen said calmly, "Of course the rabbits that are raised freely on our farm are different from those that are kept in cages. If Director Cao doesn't believe me, let's go and try it and you'll know. Wild rabbits and farmed rabbits taste different."

So a group of people were taken to Zhang Yuedong's construction site.

Wang Xia made a braised rabbit and let everyone taste it.

Then each of them presented a slaughtered rabbit.

No one talks about whether rabbits are wild or farmed anymore.

This matter...

You can do it, but you can't admit it.

Just like Jiang Ning said, there are no wild rabbits on the farm, they are all free-range. As long as the rabbits are bitten to death, there will be no problem. Who can prove that the rabbits on the farm are wild? The Forestry Bureau knows it very well, but Jiang Ning just refuses to admit it.

What can I do!
There's no need to expose the truth.

We can't let him release the rabbits into the wild.

That's ridiculous.

If the wild rabbits were willing to leave, they wouldn't come to the farm.

The food and drinks here are good, and the rabbit doesn’t want to go out and starve!

Director Cao ate a rabbit but couldn't tell whether it was wild or farmed.

It tastes really good...

Anyway, I decided to just ignore it.

Just play deaf and dumb.

As long as the superiors don’t ask, just pretend you don’t know.

Anyway, wild rabbits are not protected animals. Xianling Farm's influence in the county is growing day by day, and it is about to make a great contribution to the county's economic and industrial development and fiscal revenue. We should turn a blind eye to such trivial matters.

but……

There are so many rabbits on the farm that it is really surprising.

As long as there is grass, you can see rabbits jumping around everywhere.

Director Cao asked: "How many rabbits do you have on this farm?"

Jiang Ning didn't know either, and said, "These things are hiding in the bushes. No one has counted them. Who knows exactly how many there are."

A professional from the Forestry Bureau said, "Rabbits are animals with the strongest reproductive capacity, especially wild rabbits. They have a strong ability to adapt to nature and can lay three or four litters a year, with seven or eight rabbits in each litter. If the living environment is very good and there is enough food, the reproduction rate of wild rabbits will be terrifying. Xianling Farm has such good conditions that it is simply a paradise for wild rabbits. It is not surprising that a hundred wild rabbits can reproduce into thousands in a year. If the base number is larger, this place will become a rabbit kingdom in three years at most."

Jiang Ning had never thought about this and was very happy to hear it: "The more the better. For such a large farm, just planting trees is not enough. The economic output is too single. Raising rabbits is quite good. It can also be developed into one of the pillar industries of the farm in the future!"

As for wild rabbits and the like, just pretend you didn't hear them.

Director Cao also became interested. He stopped worrying about whether the rabbits were wild or captive and gave an idea: "This is good. It doesn't cost much to raise rabbits. It can indeed be developed into a pillar industry. I suggest you introduce more high-quality breeds to enrich the rabbit breeds to avoid inbreeding that will affect the reproduction speed in the future."

Jiang Ning thought it made sense and followed his advice.

Someone else offered a suggestion: "In addition to rabbits, you can also raise some poultry such as chickens and ducks. There are too many trees on the farm now, and the grass is growing too vigorously. I see a lot of birds and insects in the forest. Raising some poultry can also generate income!"

Jiang Ning adopted all of them, and found these suggestions to be quite practical.

There are also some chickens and ducks on the farm, but not many.

The grass on the farm grew too lush, so naturally there were more and more mosquitoes.

With more mosquitoes, a large number of birds are naturally attracted.

Unconsciously, an ecological cycle is formed.

Having only rabbits is indeed too monotonous. It would be nice to raise some chickens and ducks as well.

Anyway, there is no cost for breeding, and at most you just need to invest a little money to introduce new species.

This can be done.

Jiang Ning is a man of action and he will implement it as soon as possible.

Consult professionals and send people to introduce high-quality varieties.

Agriculture and animal husbandry are originally one.

If the breeding industry can be developed, no one will say behind his back that he is a grass seller.

An animal professional from the Forestry Bureau was very curious about how many rabbits there were on the farm and wanted to do a survey. Jiang Ning did not hide anything and gave him the opportunity. He also wanted to know how many wild rabbits there were on his farm.
