Rebirth: It's Like Flowing Water Chapter 257

Just like that, Qi Lei and Xu Xiaoqian hid back in the house.

Lonely man and widow, greasy?

Well, it's just Xu Xiaoqian holding a laptop to chat online, listen to songs, and watch the news.

Qi Lei lay on her lap and closed his eyes. When you are an old couple, companionship is the greatest passion.

During the period, the two chatted without a word.

While typing and chatting with her classmates, Xu Qian suddenly said, "Can you help me?"

Qi Lei closed his eyes and raised his eyebrows, "What help? What are you talking about?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Xiaoqian's slender fingers pinched over, and she picked up a piece of tender meat without too much force, "Pretend!! Then pretend!"

It's the same sentence, old husband and wife, Qi Lei's every move can't escape Xu Xiaoqian's eyes, "Do you really think I'm stupid? Are you here to bring food to my dad? You're here to spy on information!"

"Hehe." Qi Lei didn't deny it, "Our mother has spoken, can I help?"

Xu Xiaoqian put the computer aside, "Then what can you help?"

Qi Lei told the truth, "I have some ideas, but they are not yet mature and need to be further understood."

"You!!" Frustrated, he rubbed Qi Lei's forehead vigorously, "As expected, you have already started to think about it, and you are still lying to my mother."

"You already have forehead tattoos!"

"Fuck you!" Qi Lei sat up suddenly, sweating from fright, "Impossible!"

Xu Xiaoqian giggled, teasing him.

After laughing, Qi Lei said what was in his heart, "I really have some ideas! Besides, don't worry, this time I don't have to do anything by myself, and I don't have to worry about it."

Xu Xiaoqian finally nodded, "That's the best."

He leaned forward with great interest and hung it around Qi Lei's neck, "Tell me, what dirty tricks do you have?"

Qi Lei swayed, "It's hard to say exactly, but..."

"But what?"

Qi Lei, "Maybe we can solve the problem from the root."

Xu Xiaoqian, "..."

Why did I believe it?

I don't know how long it took. There was noise from the living room, followed by the sound of doors opening and closing.

Xu Xiaoqian listened carefully, knowing that all the guests had left.

He poked Qi Lei, "Go! Let's cook some food for our dad!"

Qi Lei jumped up with a catapult, causing Xu Xiaoqian to laugh and scold, "Can you be steady?"

The two walked out of the room one by one, and saw Xu Wenliang sitting on the sofa frowning thinking about something.

Qi Lei didn't say a word, he quietly got into the kitchen and went to work.

And Xu Xiaoqian sat next to her father, "What are you thinking?"

Xu Wenliang was startled, turned back to his soul, glared at his daughter, and then at the kitchen.

Then he groaned, "I'm a guest, why are you so blind?"

Xu Xiaoqian flipped through the magazine seriously, "What kind of guest is he? If I hadn't stopped him, he would have wanted to call him Dad."

Xu Wenliang laughed, this is something Qi Lei can do.

He joked, "The time is so fast, it's halfway through the junior year."

Xu Xiaoqian, "That's him! I'm only a sophomore, and he's a graduate student."

Xu Wenliang, "Otherwise, after the senior year, you can get the certificate."

Xu Xiaoqian, "..."

Xu Wenliang added, "Isn't it justifiable to be called!"

Xu Xiaoqian's face froze, "It makes sense!"

Afterwards, he laughed with his father, "Dad, what are you thinking? We are still young."

Xu Wenliang didn't speak, but he gradually became serious and stopped talking, obviously he had something on his mind.

Xu Xiaoqian frowned and quietly entered the kitchen, "Alas! My dad is also a hard worker!"

Qi Lei is a life of hard work, Zhang Nan is a life of hard work, and so is Xu Wenliang, the whole family!

Qi Lei was pouring the vegetables into the pot and glanced in the direction of the living room, "What our dad said makes sense!"

Xu Xiaoqian frowned, "What makes sense?" She didn't respond immediately.

Qi Lei had a wretched expression on his face, "Or, wait for your senior year..."

Xu Xiaoqian's face turned red, "Qi Lei!"

And Qi Lei was even more obscene, "Let's get it! I guarantee you have two children in three years, one boy and one girl!"

"roll!"

Xu Xiaoqian turned her head and walked out of the kitchen. Having two children in three years?

Don't you know about Planned Parenthood? punish you!

After a while, the food was hot.

Because Zhang Nan had already called and wasn't home for dinner, the three of them sat at the dinner table.

But before he could move his chopsticks, there was a knock on the door.

Why did Xu Xiaoqian go to open the door, "Uncle Bei?"

Qi Lei and Xu Wenliang at the dining table were startled, didn't Lao Qin just leave?

Xu Wenliang quickly got up and went to the door, "Comrade Qin, is there anything else?"

Lao Qin smiled embarrassedly, "The car keys are left here."

Xu Wenliang glanced at it immediately, and it really was, it was caught in the crack of the sofa.

He picked it up but didn't hand it to Lao Qin at the door. He glanced at the dining table, "How about we have something to eat together?"

When Lao Qin heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, no! Your family of three, I won't disturb you."

Xu Wenliang, "There is Maotai."

Old Qin, "This..."

Xu Xiaoqian pulled Lao Qin in, "Come on, Uncle Bei, you can barely eat rice made of stones!"

Old Qin reluctantly said, "Then... eat something?"

The corners of his mouth turned up involuntarily.

Qi Lei never opened his mouth. He seriously suspected that Uncle Bei had a premeditated plan. You came here with that bottle of wine, right?

The four sat down, and Xu Xiaoqian added bowls, chopsticks and cups to Lao Qin.

So, Xu Wenliang and Lao Qin had a drink, while Qi Lei and Xu Qian chatted with him.

Neither of them asked Qi Lei, nor did they ask if you wanted a drink.

Because we all know that although Qi Lei knows how to do it, he doesn't feel anything about baijiu, even a little disgusted. It's okay to have a few drinks outside, and he won't let him spoil things at home.

During the banquet, we also talked about common sense, the head of the family around him, and the experience of bronchitis.

Qi Lei occasionally interjected, chatting and talking, leading the topic to the soybean issue.

Xu Wenliang didn't want to say anything at first, so he passed by after a few prevarications.

On the other hand, Old Qin, perhaps for Maotai's sake, acted as a lecturer.

Qi Lei knew a little about the incident, but not in detail.

This time, Lao Qin gave him a thorough chat.

It went through like this.

Genetically modified soybeans are the group of Monsanto experts that Qi Lei detained in 1999. A year later, in early 2000, the project has already yielded results.

Ordinary people think that transgenic technology is a rather complicated project, but in fact, as long as a specific plant is found and the gene sequencing is completed, the remaining steps are actually not complicated. For the top experts in this field, results will soon be achieved .

Because, the related work, or the preparation work, may have been done for a long time before this.

In short, genetically modified soybeans produced results in 2000, and were planted in the laboratory in 2001.

Originally, it should have entered the stage of large-scale verification last year. However, for insurance, it was delayed for another year, and several rounds of laboratory verification were carried out.

Until the seed production technology is truly mature, and the patent barrier has been initially established, we will dare to take the next step.

For this reason, Shang Bei went directly through the central ministries and commissions, without even the province's involvement, and signed an experimental contract in Brazil and Argentina.

Both plots are 1,000 hectares in size, and large-scale planting demonstrations are carried out.

Once the experiment is successful, it can be announced to the world that China Shangbei has mastered the transgenic soybean technology that can be practically planted and applied, and it can be promoted worldwide.

There are two reasons for the central ministries to lead the team.

First, the ratio of domestic soybean production to imported soybeans has reached 1 to 1 last year! .

Even the proportion of imported soybeans has exceeded that of domestic soybeans.

Therefore, the sooner the new soybean varieties are promoted, the better the domestic demand for soybeans will increase year by year.

The second is...

Remember what Qi Lei told Uncle Geng and Wu Ning in the United States about the high added value of their products?

In agriculture, seeds are the highest value-added product. They are also a way to break the Western monopoly and the key to selling soybeans for 100 yuan.

Let's put it this way, before this, Xu Wenliang was making calculations every day.

First of all, genetically modified soybeans have a huge advantage over traditional soybeans in terms of oil yield. And because of its herbicide resistance, it also has advantages in yield.

(Traditional soybean varieties are killed by strong herbicides, so weed control is a major problem in soybean cultivation.)

Therefore, compared with traditional varieties, new varieties are in a rolling position.

Although it is hard to say whether it will be promoted in China, the application of transgenic technology is still very cautious.

However, this thing can be planted abroad and sold abroad. This is a business that makes a lot of money!

Take 2002 as an example, the soybean planting area in the world is about 20 million hectares, and each hectare needs about 70 kilograms of seeds.

At present, the cost of one hectare of traditional soybean seeds is about 750 yuan, which is equivalent to 10 yuan per kilogram of soybean seeds.

The Ministry of Agriculture has specially sent experts to settle accounts for Shang Bei. With reference to factors such as the rate of increase in production, the cost of pesticides and fertilizers, and other factors, the price of seeds for new varieties, even if they are conservatively priced, can be as high as 15 yuan per kilogram.

That is, the price of traditional seeds has increased by 50%.

Well, when Lao Qin said this, Qi Lei rolled his eyes.

Are you too conservative? Does not have traitorous quality?

However, Qi Lei didn't interrupt and let Lao Qin continue.

Since he wants to help, he must understand the doorway in detail.

In short, in the future, Lao Qin thinks that the price of one ton of genetically modified soybean seeds can be bought at 15,000 yuan per ton.

If we let several major soybean producing areas abroad and 20 million hectares of soybean arable land be planted with our soybean seeds.

Just this one item is more than 20 billion foreign exchange every year!

Although deducting costs, sales channels, and tariffs, etc., it is impossible to have so much pure profit in the hands of Shangbei and the farmers.

However, the remaining billions are still easy.

You must know that although Shangbei's financial income has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years, increasing by more than 200%, even so, last year it was only 300 million yuan.

But this agricultural research institute alone costs billions, enough to make Shangbei turn the world upside down.

Xu Wenliang insisted on Shang Bei not leaving. In fact, the main reason was here. He wanted to make it happen.

It's a pity that the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is very skinny.

Not to mention selling it to the world, the 2,000-hectare certified planting has not yet landed, and it will soon die.

Old Qin, "When you went to the United States, the one thousand hectares of certified land in Argentina broke the contract."

When Qi Lei heard this, "Monsanto!"

This time, it was Xu Wenliang who finally answered, "It can only be said that these overseas companies have a lot of solutions. They have filed patent lawsuits in the Argentine court. According to Argentine law, agricultural projects with patent disputes are not allowed."

With a wry smile, "We don't know anything. After 1,000 hectares of seeds were shipped to Argentina, we were notified that they couldn't be planted, and there was no penalty!"

Qi Lei, "..."

asked, "What about the thousand hectares in Brazil? Is it so yellow?"

Lao Qin, "No! The farm we found in Brazil is still very reliable, and we have taken this issue into consideration. Moreover, there is no law in Brazil to prevent planting due to patent disputes."

Qi Lei was puzzled, "Then how did Monsanto mess with Huang?"

This time Xu Wenliang and Lao Qin looked at each other with a wonderful expression, "Because that farm went bankrupt!"

Qi Lei, "????"

Xu Wenliang, "Maybe you don't know? It's because of this incident that we have a deep understanding of Brazil's agricultural situation."

"In the past, we thought that most of Brazil's agriculture was in the hands of several major grain merchants led by the United States, so in order to avoid trouble, we specially found a farm controlled by non-US capital."

"In the end..." Xu Wenliang took a sip and toasted his glass of wine. "As a result, I only know now that Brazil's grain storage, drying, rough processing, and transportation!!"

"Even!!" The tone became stronger, "Even the marine terminal is under the control of American capital. And it is completely controlled!"

Qi Lei, "..."

Xu Wenliang, "From chemical fertilizers and pesticides to warehousing and transportation, it's all U.S. capital. The cooperative farm we're looking for can decide what to grow by himself, but without these upstream and downstream industries, he can't grow anything!"

"If you are forced by the Americans, you can only break the contract. If you don't plant our soybeans, you'd rather pay the liquidated damages~www.mtlnovel.com~ And this is not the end, maybe it is to kill chickens and monkeys. After the breach of contract, they have no plans to do so. Let that farm go and it will only go bankrupt."

Qi Lei understood, "In other words, in Brazil, no one dares to plant our soybeans again!?"

Lao Qin said, "It's not just Brazil. In fact, in the whole of South America, the land and food supplies are in the hands of Western capital, and the same goes for Brazil!"

"There is no Argentine lawsuit, there are other means."

Speaking from the bottom of his heart, when Qi Lei wanted to keep the Monsanto expert, he even used illegal means, including threats to his life, just to keep the genetically modified soybeans. Lao Qin actually resisted in his heart.

It's not that he can't accept the despicable means, but he doesn't think it's necessary, and he doesn't think it's as evil as Qi Lei said.

On the issue of food, the international market is still very fair.

Just with the attitude of not taking any losses and taking precautions, I agreed to Qi Lei's nonsense.

But looking at it now, it's really shocking, and I'm in a cold sweat!
