Secretary Chen led everyone to a small sand dune and pointed to the northwest direction: "Mongolia is walking over ten miles there, and the border line is the area with the most severe ecological environment damage. Overgrazing, overfire of artificial forests, and random logging have led to large-scale desertification of the land, and quicksand continues to invade south. According to statistics, in the past ten years, the grasslands that Humeng alone have been engulfed by quicksand have reached nearly 200,000 acres."

Fu Song took off his sunglasses, looked into the gray distance, and asked, "Has the alliance taken any measures?"

More than 20 kilometers south of this sandy grassland is the forage planting base planned by Yuanjing Group. If the wind and sand are allowed to rage, within ten years, the forage planting base in the south will inevitably be affected by desertification, and the huge investment will be wasted.

Secretary Chen smiled bitterly and said, "The league planted trees every year, but the survival rate is very low and the effect is minimal. Mr. Fu, look, we actually planted many saplings along both sides of this road before, but a strong wind could ruin all our hard work in the year. There is no way, the planting speed cannot keep up with the speed of quicksand, so we can only watch it."

Xu Song spitted on the ground and said, "I choked on my mouth. Although I am engaged in animal husbandry, I have also heard from my colleagues at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences that there are two keys to planting trees and sand control. One is multiple, repeated planting and repeated planting. You must never rely on hope to achieve it overnight. You must be mentally prepared to fight against the wind and sand for a long time; the other is to rely on scientific planting. Not all places are suitable for planting trees. It is necessary to go from easy to difficult, lead to the surface, and finally form a network. This requires planning in advance. It is difficult to achieve these two points!"

Fu Song was silent for a moment and asked, "Secretary Chen, what is the situation in the Lingdong Reclamation Area?"

In addition to planning to establish a forage base of more than 200,000 mu in Lingxi, Vision Group also plans to establish a grain planting base of 200,000 mu in Lingdong to support the Lingxi Animal Husbandry Base, and plant soybeans, rice, sorghum, corn and other crops.

Secretary Chen said: "The situation in Lingdong is slightly better, but it is not optimistic either."

Fu Song smiled bitterly and said, "Humeng's agriculture should be mainly protected, but I did the opposite, and I was wrong."

Secretary Chen opened his mouth and finally swallowed the words to his mouth.

Xu Song shook his head and said, "Mr. Fu, as a supporting staff of the animal husbandry base, the grain base must be built, and we cannot give up the food because of the choke. What we need to consider now is not the question of whether to build it or not, but how to build it. Specifically, how to scientifically and reasonably cultivate and cultivate it, which can not only give full play to the economic effect of the grain base, but also better protect the ecological environment. Secretary Chen, what do you think?"

"Yes, you can't give up because of the choke!" Secretary Chen was overjoyed. Although he thought so just now, he just couldn't say it. He was afraid that he would make people laugh. Oh, he was a professor from the capital, and his level was very high!

Fu Song laughed secretly. Secretary Chen was afraid that he would give up, but Old Chen was in vain. Since he was determined to establish an animal husbandry base in Humeng, how could he give up?

The key is that Professor Xu Song has come to Fu Song's heart. No matter what he does, how can he give up on his food because of choking?

To give the simplest example, is reform and opening up good? Of course it is good, because this is politically correct, but is there no bad aspects? Not to mention anything else, after opening the country, good and bad, essence and dregs pour into the country, and various bourgeois thoughts are rampant. Is it because I worry that people's hearts are bad and they shut down again?

It’s best to be sick if you are sick. If you are sick, you will be cured. There is nothing to be scary!

Similarly, aren’t you going to grow grain because you are worried about destroying the ecological environment?

In Professor Xu Song's words, as long as the methods of reclamation and farming are scientific and reasonable, with emphasis on protection and strengthening governance, there is nothing to worry about.

Although it takes more money and more manpower and material resources to do so, Fu Song believes that it is worth it.

On the one hand, green waters and green mountains are gold and silver. He does not want to be criticized by himself and the Vision Group in the future to destroy the environment, and be stung by the people of the Hu League.

On the other hand, this is also to save money for oneself. After all, Humeng Animal Husbandry Base is not a one-time transaction. Humeng is vast and sparsely populated, and grain and feed raw materials cannot be self-sufficient. If grain and feed raw materials are transported from other places, the transportation cost alone is a considerable expense. Therefore, if materials can be retrieved nearby, in the long run, the transportation cost alone may be able to cover previous investment in environmental protection and governance.

Therefore, this transaction is cost-effective, and Vision Group will not suffer any losses!

Not only that, if you do this in the name of Vision Group, you can also gain a good reputation, and reputation is difficult to measure with money. I didn’t see that those "people who got rich first" counted one, and they all tried their best to put gold on their faces, and even paid money.

Thinking of this, Fu Song opened his mouth: "Secretary Chen, I plan to set up a sand prevention and control fund in Humeng, and initially plan to invest 10% of the annual profit of the animal husbandry base into the fund. Before the animal husbandry base becomes profitable, Vision Group will spend at least 50 million yuan a year..."

Everyone gasped, "50 million!"

Secretary Chen thought he was hallucinating his hearing and shook his head hard. Last year, Humeng Finance’s budget for sand control was less than 2 million yuan. Mr. Fu actually opened his mouth 25 times the fiscal budget last year!

Fu Song said: "I know that compared to the huge desertified land, 50 million drops of water..."

Secretary Chen had not recovered from the shock yet, and he stuttered a little, "Mr. Fu, you misunderstood, I..., no, it's really 50 million?"

Fu Song said with a funny look: "In front of so many people, I dare not joke about the reputation of Vision Group."

"Mr. Fu, on behalf of Humeng, I thank you for the 2.5 million people, thank you for Vision Group!" Secretary Chen felt his heart beating. If Humeng could increase the cost of sand control by 50 million yuan every year, he was confident that he would curb the invasion of quicksand during his term of office. As for completely curbing the desertified land in Humeng, he was powerless and could only look forward to it in his heart.

Fu Song said: "Secretary Chen, there is no need to thank you. In fact, this is also for the consideration of Vision Group itself."

Secretary Chen held Fu Song's hand tightly and said, "The accounts cannot be settled like this. Wind prevention and control of sand is originally the task and work of the state and local governments. As an enterprise, Vision Group actually does not have this obligation. No matter what, we must thank Mr. Fu for his understanding of the righteousness!"

Fu Song said helplessly: "I can't afford to have a deep understanding of justice. Secretary Chen, even if this fund is jointly organized by Vision Group and Humeng, you can see when it will be convenient..."

Secretary Chen understood and said, "Anytime! But I think this time I can't do it as hasty as the animal husbandry base. I have to do it with great fanfare. I want to ask the leaders of the capital to do an appraisal. I must not let Mr. Fu down! "

Fu Song said hypocritically: "Isn't this too troublesome?"
