“Qingkang Company, Qingkang Company. That’s just a company in name now.” President Chen continued, “In fact, Qingkang Company has already been incorporated into the country. The more than 200 acres of land contracted by the company has also become a national investment.”

“Oh, right. These plots of land were originally rented by Qingkang Company are included in the expropriation.”

“In other words, the 200 acres of land leased by Qingkang Company had also been confiscated. Our country’s investment was only inviting CEO Gu and the Shi family to be our company’s planting technicians to guide our country’s investment in the entire base.”

“The reason why we hired Qingkang Company is that the country invested in the technology developed by CEO Gu.”

Hearing President Chen’s explanation, the villagers present were once again surprised.

“So, Qingkang Company’s agricultural products worth millions per acre no longer have anything to do with Qingkang Company?” someone reacted and asked.

“There’s still a connection,” President Chen said. “After all, CEO. Gu and her family are planting technicians. Our national investment company will give them some rewards.”

Another villager asked, “If they can become planting technicians, why can’t we?”

The villagers who asked the question had obvious envy and jealousy in their eyes.

After all, this was a national company.

It was said that people who worked in state-owned enterprises not only had high salaries but also had a high retirement pension after retirement.

Therefore, why was it that only the Shi family could enjoy such a good job?

He continued, “We have so many villages. Many people’s farming skills are not inferior to the Shi family’s.”

Director Li glanced at the villager who asked the question and asked, “Who are you? Which village are you from?”

“Director Li, I’m from the Great Star Village. My name is Liu Chungui,” Liu Chungui introduced himself excitedly.

Director Li stared at him for a while and asked sharply, “Since you’re not convinced that the Shi family can be the planting technicians of the National Investment Company, let me ask you.”

Before Director Li could finish, Liu Chungui interrupted, “Director Li, ask away.”

Director Li nodded and said, “Then let me ask you. In the surrounding dozen or so villages, who can grow watermelons and navel oranges better than the Shi family? Tell me, and I can immediately invite him to join the company as a technician on behalf of the country.”

The reason why Director Li was so confident in asking this was that they had all investigated it beforehand.

In the surrounding villages, only the three Shi brothers planted the best watermelons. Therefore, their watermelons were priced higher than the others when they were sold.

Even if others had objections, the acquisition boss would say, “As long as your watermelons are sweet and of even size, I can also give you this price.”

As soon as he said this, the expression of the person who asked this question immediately froze.

As for planting navel oranges, the Shi family was also famous in the entire Pingyang County.

In fact, the Shi family would even be invited by the county agriculture director to explain the techniques of navel orange cultivation to many villagers.

The three brothers’ navel oranges were planted on tens of thousands of acres of land and all of the navel oranges were sold out every year.

This made the other orange citizens extremely envious.

That was because if they wanted to sell all the navel oranges they planted, they had to work hard.

As for the Shi Family, they did not need to worry at all.

That was because their family’s navel orange was famous in the county. Naturally, a large number of orders would float over like snowflakes.

At this moment, President Chen looked at the villagers present with his sharp eyes and said loudly, “As long as you say that your watermelons and navel oranges are better than theirs, I’ll hire you on the spot as our company’s technician and give you the best treatment.”

His words were like a stick hitting the heads of the villagers present.

Yes, they were envious and jealous of the Shi family.

However, why should they be envious and jealous?

Director Chen and Director Li looked at each other and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

However, another villager asked loudly, “But this kind of land aren’t just used for growing watermelons and oranges, right? Some people grow rice well, some people grow vegetables well…”

People who farmed had their own strengths.

When President Chen heard this, he asked sharply, “Since that’s the case, can you tell me how much those well-planted families plant in a year and how much they reap? Will they give the acquisition party greater yield?”

Another villager immediately fell silent.

It was because there were not many families who planted as much land as the Shi Family did. Each of them was twenty to thirty acres.

The so-called well-planted families they mentioned could only cultivate two to three acres at most.

They were afraid of losing money.

Even if their rice was planted well, they would not plant more than ten to twenty acres of land at once. Moreover, their rice grains would not be of greater quality than that of the Shi family.

President Chen said very realistically, “Let me tell you. Although we are a state-owned enterprise, a state-owned enterprise is still a company. Since it’s a company, it’s based on benefits.

Whoever could create value and benefits for the company would be placed in an important position by the company. On the contrary, if one wants to enter the company but is a parasite in the company, they can only be fired by the company.

“Therefore, tell me how much value and benefit you can create for the company. If you create more benefits than the Shi family, I’ll hire you on the spot.”

Few people in the countryside made money by farming. Most people just didn’t want to buy their food and wanted to save some money.

But the Shi family was different.

They really relied on farming to make money.

The three shiny villas and three small cars of the three brothers were all reaped through farm work.

Therefore, other than the Shi family, no one in the surrounding villages had the ability to farm well.

The new houses built by most people were either paid for by young people working or doing business outside the village.

This was a collaboration that was based on farming. Therefore, it had to place emphasis on planting techniques. Value and benefits were the key considerations.

Director Li asked, “So, do you have any other questions?”

“Also, if I want to ask. You can clearly create millions per acre of land, but why are you only giving us 30,000 dollars as compensation? We agree that this compensation is too little,” a villager said loudly.

“That’s right, 30,000 dollars is really too little.” The villagers came out one after another to agree.. “You can clearly plant something worth millions after you confiscate the land, but why are you giving us so little compensation? Also, after we confiscate the land, what will we old fellows do in the future?”
