246 Cooperative Planting for Support)

Shame!

Standing in front of the yard with shame, Sun Xingwang's old face turned red, and in front of him was a pile of cotton that had been found from his arms.

"That, that, I, I am willing to admit compensation, accept compensation..."

Before he could speak, Zhuang Ding said there.

"I admit the compensation, and then I have to wait until the young master has given instructions to get you compensation!"

"That's right, Mr. Sun, logically speaking, you don't have those handfuls of cotton. You said, why are you doing this?"

"He was almost cotton. He clearly wanted to steal our seeds..."

"No, maybe during the Chinese New Year, he stole the cabbage from our family."

Everyone was like a mirror in their hearts, and they knew why he stole the cotton, just to leave seeds. Just as they were talking, Shi Yiwen walked out and looked at the caught "flower thief". He was Sun Xingwang from the neighboring village. He had more than 100 acres of fertile land at home. He said he was rich but could not be considered rich. He was a small landlord.

"Master Sun, what are you doing with these cotton? Isn't it just that there is only a little cotton sewing clothes at home?"

Shi Yiwen's joke made Sun Xingwang's face turn red, but he couldn't speak, and he said after a while.

"Shi, Mr. Shi, they are all making mistakes. I admit to compensation, I admit to compensation..."

"Look at what you said, what's wrong with compensation, but I'm very curious, why is Mr. Sun picking these cotton?"

In fact, Shi Yiwen doesn't know why, but he still hopes to hear him say it himself.

"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I say it, I just want to steal some seeds. The cotton in Shitaizhuang can collect about 200 kilograms per acre. Everyone is jealous of this. This acre of land can earn three taels of silver. Speaking of which, it's all about making lard so that the young master laughs."

When Sun Xingwang bowed and apologized, Shi Yiwen laughed.

"What am I thinking? It turns out that I just want to get some seeds. If this is the case, why should I do this? Master Sun wants seeds, so he can come to find them directly!"

As he said that, Shi Yiwen ordered Liu Yu.

"Manager Liu, you have recorded it. After the cotton is removed from seeds, you will give Mr. Sun two hundred kilograms."

What!

Sun Xingwang opened his eyes wide in surprise and stared at Shi Yiwen with incredible appearance.

"Mr., my son, is this true? Is it really given to me?"

Is there anyone who gave the seeds so much for no reason?

"Can this be fake? However, this is a businessman, and this kind of seed cannot be given for free. I will give you cotton seeds this year, and you will have to sell all your cotton to Shi next year. I wonder what Mr. Sun thinks?"

The company provides seeds to farmers, farmers plant, and the company underwriting and sales output is a typical "agricultural cooperative management" method in later generations. For Shi Yiwen, this is also the easiest and most effective way to master the production of raw materials.

"This, this, the young master is so kind, it really makes me ashamed!"

Sun Xingwang, who bowed and thanked again, never expected that he would encounter such a good thing. After all, as far as he knew, no matter who has a good seed in his family, he would hide it, for fear that others would do it.

"What's the matter? Since there are good varieties at home, you can't treasure them yourself. It's no big deal. Oh, by the way, Mr. Sun knows that this kind of cotton also has its own seeds. Different seeds will also affect the yield."

Then Shi Yiwen invited Sun Xingwang to the hall and talked to him about how to grow cotton. He even took the initiative to recommend mixed grains, melons and fruits such as pumpkins. If it weren't for potatoes, the sweet potatoes were bred with the small amount of goods placed in the supermarket vegetable area. The number was too limited, so he probably would have introduced them to Sun Xingwang.

According to the experience of growing cabbage last year, it is impossible for the promotion of good varieties to rely on small farmers and small farmers. If they do not see the benefits, they will never take risks. Compared with relatively conservative small farmers and small farmers, small landlords in rural areas such as Sun Xingwang are always interested in new agricultural tools or good varieties. After all, they are more likely to be driven by interests, and they also have the capital to take risks and try. In the late Qing Dynasty, whether it is the introduction of American cotton or the use of fattening fields, the leaders were the rich peasants and small landlords in the countryside. In the 21st century, this was called "big households take the lead in demonstration". The government often guides big farmers and lets them play the leading demonstration role. With them taking the lead, the people nearby will naturally follow up. Sometimes, compared with the government, the people are more willing to believe in the big farmers around them, especially when farming.

Of course, it is not enough to rely on this kind of big-name household that comes to the door by itself. There are still advertisements. When the cotton in Shitaizhuang is getting a bumper harvest, there are naturally more news related to the cotton harvest in Shitaizhuang for several days in succession in the Morning Post, from high yields of 200 kilograms per mu to affordable price for one acre of cotton, these seemingly inconspicuous news just show to outsiders that you can earn money by growing cotton, and that "Shizi Cotton" in Shitaizhuang can earn more money by growing cotton.

Just like the "Get Rich Sutra" in another time and space, the promotion of soft articles, whether true or false, will affect many people, not to mention that "Shizi cotton" is a real benefit. So naturally, some officials and businessmen went to Shitaizhuang to buy cotton seeds after seeing the report. Shi Yiwen naturally did not refuse this, but he didn't give them much, often only a dozen or twenty kilograms of cotton seeds. But even so, most of those people were grateful.

"Young Master, let's give them the seeds in vain?"

Once again, after sending out twenty kilograms of "Shizi cotton" seeds, Liu Yu said with some heartache.

"Why is it for free?"

Shi Yiwen smiled.

"We have collected a tael of silver for that bag of seeds."

Of course, the seeds were not given for free. To Sun Xingwang and the people nearby were "targeted planting" that they had agreed to acquire. As for giving to outsiders, the seeds were of value.

"Now if they plant our cotton and harvest it, then no matter what seeds we promote in Shitaizhuang in the future, they will believe us, in the future..."

After looking outside, Shi Yiwen said with a smile.

"Our Shitaizhuang is the breeding base for the Ming Dynasty's good seeds. At that time, those seeds will be promoted from us to the entire Ming Dynasty, and the people from all over the country can also benefit from it. Of course, we can also earn a lot of money. After all, the seeds left by the people will degenerate. If they cannot keep them well, the yield will decrease. As long as we do a good job of cultivating good seeds, there will be endless money in this place..."

Just as Shi Yiwen finished speaking, a servant reported there.
