Chapter 249: Ma Jun Takes the Blame Again!
Chapter 249: Ma Jun Takes the Blame Again!
Zhang Lin, after reviewing the information he had gathered, made up his mind to purchase the technology.
Imagine the size of the market.
The current market price for soybeans is around 5,000 yuan per ton, and the domestic demand is 180 million tons.
What is the value of this?
However, he was also aware that with the current capabilities of the farm, or even his own, even if he mortgaged the entire Liyuan Farm to secure a loan and then planted soybeans extensively, he would still be unable to meet this demand.
Not even a fraction of it.
Even if the entire You County were to be dedicated to planting soybeans, it might not be enough to meet this demand.
After all, it's not feasible to convert all of You County's farmland to soybean cultivation.
However, it's not necessary to meet the entire 180 million tons of demand right from the start.
Even meeting 30 million to 50 million tons would be a significant achievement.
The project could be developed gradually.
Of course, with his current financial strength, this is still beyond his reach.
To achieve such a scale, an investment of at least 10 to 20 billion yuan would be required.
So, for him, this currently seems to be an unattainable goal.
However, he immediately thought of the wealthy individuals at the Spring Water Health Resort, especially his two senior brothers. It would be foolish not to make good use of their wealth.
Although seeking investment from these wealthy individuals would mean giving up a lot of benefits, he knew that profit is something that can never be fully maximized.
Compared to gradual development, he preferred to scale up the project all at once, as the speed of capital accumulation would definitely be faster.
This way, when similar technologies emerge in the future, he would have sufficient funds to invest.
Moreover, as a citizen of the country, knowing that there are products like soybeans that are subject to foreign control, he would naturally not mind making a contribution if he has the capability.
After all, living in this stable society is a blessing from the country.
He is not the type of person who enjoys the benefits of the country but still complains about it, thinking everything is better abroad.
Most importantly, he understands that such a huge profit is too much for one person to handle.
Even if he seeks investment from these wealthy individuals, the local government of You County would still need to be involved.
Even if the control is not in his hands, as long as he secures a sufficient share of the benefits, that would be acceptable.
He is not particularly skilled in business management, especially in the operation of strategic materials.
It would involve numerous aspects, and he would likely be bogged down in it every day, unable to do anything else.
He is accustomed to a leisurely life, content with running the farm.
Some might say he is foolish.
Sometimes, a fool has a fool's luck, and with the game system, there will definitely be better things in the future, perhaps even at the same level.
In the span of a few decades, how much can he gain from the game?
So, there's no need to be overly concerned about the gains and losses of this one thing.
On the other hand, Liu Xian and his team have been struggling with the issue of attracting investment, already eyeing the wealthy individuals at the Spring Water Health Resort.
If he were to bring this technology into a cooperative venture, he could instantly meet their investment targets, which would likely leave them too excited to eat.
With this thought in mind, he did not hesitate and directly spent 200 million yuan to purchase the technology.
The next moment, the game system notification appeared again:
【Congratulations, you have spent 200 million yuan to purchase the new soybean technology. The new soybean technology and seed products have been materialized. Please go to the warehouse to collect them.】
Meanwhile, Zhang Lin received a notification about the deduction from his bank account.
These two billion yuan spent left him with only 2 billion yuan in his private account. Originally, with four billion yuan, he thought selling the two pieces of golden-threaded nanmu was a profitable deal, but he didn't realize how quickly the money could be spent.
Without hesitation, he hurried to the core area's warehouse.
Upon arriving at the warehouse, he saw a materialized document and several large bags of special soybean seeds.
The document, of course, contained the research materials, detailing the information about this technology.
With this technical document, even without the several large bags of special soybean seeds, he could cultivate new soybean seeds himself.
Now, with these bags of seeds, it would be even easier. He could use these soybean seeds directly for planting and then cultivate more seeds.
However, there was still one important issue: providing a reasonable source for these soybean seeds.
He immediately grabbed a large handful of soybean seeds and headed to Ma Jun's research institute.
At the institute, he saw Ma Jun working with Chen Xinke on a research project.
The research on the five-colored hibiscus was already completed, and now they were working on the special Sunlight Rose project.
After all, this plant could even be grown in the desert. At this stage, the Sunlight Rose had not yet bloomed or produced fruit, so Ma Jun could only study its cellular structure.
Chen Xinke was very enthusiastic.
In the short time he had been at the farm, he had already managed to get his name on the research for the five-colored hibiscus.
He was increasingly impressed by Ma Jun.
The idea of growing Sunlight Rose in the desert seemed far-fetched, but through their cellular research, it seemed genuinely possible.
If they succeeded, it would be an incredible achievement.
Both he and Ma Jun could gain worldwide recognition, and he could even get his name in biology textbooks.
Seeing Zhang Lin enter, the two of them immediately greeted him.
Then, Ma Jun asked, "Boss, it's rare for you to come here. There must be something you need, right?"
Zhang Lin directly handed the handful of soybeans to Ma Jun, saying, "Test these soybeans."
"What kind of soybeans are these?" Chen Xinke asked curiously.
Zhang Lin looked at Ma Jun and said, "These are a new soybean product that Ma Jun has been researching. They just happened to mature recently, so I had them harvested and brought over for you to study."
This made Ma Jun pause.
When had he researched this?
But he quickly understood. These soybeans must be a mutated crop from the experimental field.
After all, they had planted many seeds there before.
So, once again, he was being asked to take the blame.
"Go ahead and study them. See what's going on with them," Ma Jun instructed Chen Xinke.
Zhang Lin smiled.
Indeed, having Ma Jun around made many things much easier.
Hearing Ma Jun's instructions, Chen Xinke did not hesitate and immediately started studying the soybeans.
Especially knowing that these soybeans were another one of Ma Jun's research projects, he was curious about their unique properties.
As he studied, he quickly noticed something odd. What was happening with the cells of these soybean seeds?
