Chapter 89 Wheat will speak for him!
The wheat is growing vigorously.
It grows taller and taller.
Typically, wheat plants are 60 to 100 centimeters tall.
With special cultivation, the height can be significantly increased.
Giant wheat that was 2 meters tall has appeared in Jiangxi, while space wheat in the experimental fields of Binzhou in Shandong can grow to more than 5 meters tall.
Xu Ran's wheat is all top-quality wheat, with a very high yield per acre. With a high yield per acre, the wheat plants are naturally also quite large.
The wheat has now grown to about 1.5 meters tall, forming a golden expanse.
As the wind blows, waves of wheat ripple and sway, creating a beautiful sight.
This gold color is different from the gold color of a sunflower field.
The sunflower's golden color resembles gold, the color of the sun, symbolizing the blazing summer and warm sunshine.
The golden color of wheat is the gold of a bountiful harvest. Although the color resembles that of withered leaves, the vast expanse of wheat creates a spectacular scene.
Winter has arrived, the weather is cold, and most of the farmland is in a state of abandonment.
There was no other way; the ground was frozen solid, making it difficult to irrigate and for crops to survive, so we simply stopped planting.
But Xu Ran's farm is different.
It remains a land of abundant resources.
His place is almost a tourist attraction; passersby always stop to take photos.
Some people wanted to go in and take pictures, but the farm was fenced off and monitored by surveillance cameras, so they couldn't go in.
If anyone attempts to enter, the surveillance system will broadcast an announcement: "You have entered a private farm area that also protects rare wildlife. Do not trespass."
""
Meanwhile, the farm's monitoring room will also emit beeping alarm sounds.
Prevention work still needs to be done well.
When the villagers saw how well Xu Ran's wheat was growing, they came to ask him how he grew it.
Xu Ran explained to the villagers, "We need tractors and sprinkler systems to plant wheat in winter. We have to water it when the weather is good, so the investment costs are relatively high."
"I need to cultivate 120 mu (approximately 8 hectares) to barely break even."
"If it's just a few acres of land, I simply can't manage it all, and I'll most likely lose money."
I don't recommend that you plant it.
"Moreover, wheat prices are not high this year, so the probability of losing money is even greater."
The villagers thought it made a lot of sense, so they stopped planting it.
When it comes to calculating profits, everyone is quite shrewd.
After all, we don't earn much money to begin with, so we definitely have to be careful with our money.
The wheat is growing well now, so the employees don't need to take special care of it.
People often come here to browse on weekdays.
"Why are our wheat fields so tall? They're almost blocking people's view."
"I don't remember wheat being this tall!"
As the group strolled and chatted, Zhao Shan asked a question.
"The varieties that Brother Ran found are all top-quality, none of them are ordinary."
"I heard that Ran graduated from a prestigious university in Beijing. He used to work at a large factory, but suddenly quit and came home to inherit the farm."
"He must have a foundation for starting a business. There are resources in Beijing, and they grow high-quality crops."
"Take this wheat for example, it's not only tall, but it also feels more robust, so the yield will definitely be high."
"We can take some back and plant some in our own garden; they'll definitely grow well."
Wang Hai responded.
The wheat ears were plump and thick, so much so that their heads drooped, only swaying slightly when the wind blew.
In times of scarcity, such as during ancient wars, a wheat field like this could probably support an elite army.
"You can give it a try, but the fertilizer used for these wheat plants is all formulated by Brother Ran. We also need to test the soil environment and replenish trace elements and macro elements at any time. When we grow our own wheat, we usually just apply fertilizer randomly, and it won't grow this well."
Zheng Lin looked at the wheat field and reminded him.
Running a farm definitely requires relevant professional knowledge.
There's a lot to learn about this.
Currently, Xu Ran manages all the growth processes of the crops on the farm.
Everyone listened to Xu Ran about how often to water the plants and when to add fertilizer.
Xu Ran only needs to observe the fields for a while to make arrangements.
This is also why the crops on the farm always grow exceptionally well.
After all, Xu Ran has a system that can test the soil and always provide the best growing environment for crops.
Xu Ran remembers a fable from her childhood.
It refers to two fields of grain. The grain in one field, having endured wind and rain, grew exceptionally strong. The grain in the other field, having benefited from favorable weather and faced no setbacks, ended up growing only empty shells.
It means that people can only grow by experiencing setbacks.
Xu Ran thought it was nonsense at the time.
These people make up all sorts of nonsense in order to educate children.
If crops truly experience favorable weather and a good environment, they will definitely grow large and healthy, and yield high harvests.
Even children are the same; children who grow up pampered with love and money tend to have different overall temperaments, knowledge, and abilities.
They often have more skills.
This is reality.
As the group strolled around, they happened to spot Xu Ran.
Xu Ran is feeding bamboo shoots to the giant panda.
This morning he made a special trip to the mountains, taking his Border Collie and wild boar with him, to look for winter bamboo shoots.
For Xu Ran, having a map showing the distribution of rare plants made finding bamboo shoots a piece of cake.
Precisely pinpoint the target location.
Just walk over and dig out the bamboo shoots.
Now that they're back, they've fed bamboo shoots to the giant pandas.
The giant pandas are now living a very happy life.
These guys aren't very active and don't have a large range of activities; they just want to live comfortably.
So the farm was paradise for it.
Unlike tigers or lynxes, which are wild and have a large range of activity.
You can feel suffocated in a small place.
In addition, Xu Ran changed the name of the giant panda.
It was previously called Little Fatty because the gender of the giant panda was unknown.
Now I feel that's not a good word, so I changed it to "tangyuan" (glutinous rice balls), but it's about the same meaning.
Xu Ran was peeling bamboo shoots, while the giant panda ate quietly.
He chewed away, his face beaming with joy.
"Tangyuan, are you happy now?"
Xu Ran asked with a smile.
The giant panda nodded as it ate, responding to the food.
This guy is friendly, but he's selective about who he's with. Right now, he's only friendly with Xu Ran; no one else can get through to him.
The employees also knew that Xu Ran had told them to pretend they didn't see the giant pandas and not to interfere.
If the giant panda wants to leave, don't stop it.
Xu Ran guessed that the pandas ate less in winter and would probably go back home after spring.
Life goes on as usual.
Over the next two days, Xu Ran began to busy herself with matters concerning wheat.
For example, contact flour factories to select suitable flour packaging.
We need to contact Yonghui Supermarket about this in advance.
Because Yonghui Supermarket uses standardized packaging, in other words, the style of flour must be determined when it is packaged for the first time.
It's not like the farm can release a new packaging design and then Yonghui Supermarket can wrap it in another layer.
Therefore, it is best to finalize the cooperation in advance.
"Selling flour? That requires investigation; we have specific regulations."
"Moreover, we have wheat flour produced in the Hetao region of Inner Mongolia, which is one of the world's three major golden wheat producing areas, as well as imported flour from northern Italy. It is high-precision and has a good taste, so it is unlikely that we can successfully cooperate on the flour issue."
Manager Yang Kaifu stated the facts truthfully.
Xu Ran realized that the competition in the flour industry was quite intense.
Firstly, there are many well-known flour producing areas in China, and secondly, there are many high-quality wheat producing areas abroad that produce bread.
"Okay, the inspection is fine. I'll look for other cooperation channels at the same time."
Xu Ran responded readily.
Cooperation requires mutual consent; business is business, and it's best if everyone is open and honest about it.
"Okay, I definitely hope we can cooperate."
Yang Kaifu replied earnestly.
Looking at the golden wheat field, Xu Ran still felt quite confident.
No matter how this wheat is processed, its quality will be excellent.
We still lack distribution channels.
So he started going to large supermarkets and shopping malls to work on distribution channels again, just like he did at the beginning.
He would talk to the marketing manager of Walmart, Carrefour, and any other large supermarket.
Because Youran Farm has recently gained some fame, large supermarkets have expressed their willingness to conduct on-site inspections and select products. If it proves to be a good fit, a cooperation can be reached.
Now it's up to us to see which company arrives first.
The wheat is growing healthily and vigorously here.
Xu Ran was quite looking forward to seeing what Xiaomai looked like.
Wheat will speak for him in due time.
