After Kirilenko left, Mozgov still wanted to have a drink with Feng Yu. But Feng Yu rejected Mozgov with the excuse that he had something to discuss with Kirilenko.
This was a good reason. Mozgov could tell that the farmers that Feng Yu mentioned were important to Kirilenko. Kirilenko and Feng Yu were the bosses of their companies, and Mozgov was only a part-time worker. He could only eat like Feng Yu.
Feng Yu enjoyed the Russian delicacies. Some of the dishes were really to Feng Yu's taste.
When Kirilenko returned, Feng Yu was already full. He asked the waiters to serve him desserts and fruits.
"Feng, I had made a few calls and spoke to the leaders of the Coastal Border Region. They felt that if you are Hua Xia's brother and abide by our country's laws, then what you said earlier will not be a problem!" Kirilenko said excitedly.
If Feng Yu could help him solve the farmers' problems, then Russia's agriculture will be improved. In a few years, the Russians will see the profits from agriculture and will want to farm again. At that time, Hua Xia's people will no longer be needed, and Russia's agriculture and food production will recover!
Kirilenko had thought of this. This way, he could build a good relationship with those few politicians, and his businesses will be more successful. He will no longer need to rely on the military's influence.
Feng Yu was also happy. This way, he would be able to help Longjiang province to export labor services, and it will bring in high profits. Hmmm … … This will help Zhang Ruiqiang get some political credits. Maybe he could also help Uncle Wen get some political credits.
Of course, Feng Yu would not only get friendship and favors. He could also make use of the labor service company to get some profits. He could also introduce the Machinery Company's farming machines into the Russian market.
"Brother Ki, I will set up a labor service company and contact you. The farmland I want must be good farmland. The land must be flat. It can't be some low-lying swamps or hills. " Feng Yu had to make this clear. The farmers in Longjiang province were best at growing corn, soybeans, and wheat on the plains. There were not many farmers growing rice. Therefore, Feng Yu did not want paddy fields. Hills were not suitable for large-scale farming. Of course, he did not want them.
"Don't worry, it's guaranteed to be good farmland. Also, there are some wastelands that you can cultivate as you wish. The taxes you need to pay are very little. "Kirilenko made a small gesture with his fingers.
"Then how many years can we contract? If it was only two or three years, then it would definitely not work. It would not be able to attract those farmers, after all, they would have to leave their homes. I don't think Russians like to work far away from home, right? "
Kirilenko asked tentatively, "How about four years? Four years was enough for the farmers in Hua Xia to earn money. Our country is also stimulating the development of agriculture, so it's impossible to contract the land to you for too long. "
Four years? Feng Yu scoffed. In the first year, the wasteland was reclaimed, and the farmers were not used to Russia's climate and land. There was not much money to be made. From the second year onwards, they would be able to make money. If they were to buy tractors, farm tools, and build houses, how much money would they be able to earn in four years?
If the farmers didn't earn money and Feng Yu took their money, then Feng Yu wouldn't be helping the farmers earn money outside. Instead, he would be earning his own money and making the farmers work for him for free!
How could he do that? Renting the land would take at least five years!
Feng Yu remembered that Russia's agriculture industry started to recover after Putin came to power. The reform of agriculture was proposed by Putin when he was the Deputy Prime Minister. Previously, he was Yeltsin's second-in-command and was in charge of the economy.
Before that, there should be at least six years for the farmers of Hua Xia to earn a steady income.
"Brother Ki, I think our contract can last till the end of the year 2000. Farming also needs planning. The longer the time, the more concentrated the farmers will be, the higher the output, and the more food will be given to you. We can let the farmers use their crops to offset the taxes and rental fees. This way, it will be better for everyone. "
This way, the impact of the grain prices on the farmers would be lesser. Feng Yu had not let down the farmers.
"Including this year, it will take at least nine years? It was too long. The deadline was too long. The politicians would never agree to it. Feng Yu, I can help you to extend the duration to 5 years. I can't do anything more than that. "Kirilenko argued.
"Brother Ki, I think you are thinking of asking those politicians to take back the land after a few years? Although this is good, I dare to say that your Russian farmers will not earn any money from farming. It's not easy to be a good farmer. My family lives on a farm. I know more about this than you. For example, you and Mozgov. If I ask the two of you to farm, are you confident that you can make money? "
Kirilenko and Mozgov looked at each other. They could see the answer in each other's eyes.
Kirilenko was frustrated. Can't this work? Even if the duration is 9 years, when you return the land to us, we still don't know how to farm.
At that time, we will still have to contract our land to your Hua Xia farmers. How can we do this? At least for now, there are still some farmers farming on our land.
"Brother Ki, it's not suitable for us to talk about this. The farmers I had found for you are all from Longjiang province. Why don't you let our Longjiang province's government officials talk to your politicians? We only need to introduce each other, and we will still get this favor. "
Those politicians should not know Feng Yu as well as Kirilenko. Kirilenko might be able to get better terms with them. Feng Yu and Kirilenko's relationship will not fall out because of this small matter.
Kirilenko thought for a while and nodded. Kirilenko wants favors, and favors can be converted into profits. Kirilenko does not want to get involved in contracting the land. How much can he make from this?
Kirilenko didn't even calculate the amount of money in this deal. It was not a small amount. If he could contract 10,000 hectares of land, then he can make a few million RMB a year from the rental. 100,000 hectares of land will be tens of millions of RMB. But the investment involved was not small.
But the investment was just a side effect. Feng Yu can even collect the farmers' money first. If the farmers do not have money, they can also get loans from the banks. Feng Yu can even be their guarantor. This was very simple.
"Feng, let's not talk about other things. You have helped me again. Cheers!"
Feng Yu also raised his half-full glass of beer and clinked it with Kirilenko's glass of vodka. After that, he downed his glass. Kirilenko's eyes opened wide when he saw Feng Yu staring at his glass. He could only raise his head and finish the glass. He was not as thick-skinned as Feng Yu … …
