Chapter 264 Opportunity
As the second airship is put into trial.
The enthusiasm of airship airports in various parts of the country has further increased.
This side of Gannan City.
Since this is an area where Hailufeng Company entered a relatively early period, there are many Hailufeng industry here.
In addition to oil tea planting, alfalfa planting, dairy cattle planting, and honey planting, a very special industry has also been added this year.
That is "herbal cultivation".
But this herb is not that herb.
Gannan Branch can obtain this industry.
On the one hand, it is because Hailufeng Company's layout in other places is either saturated or is still in full swing, and only the southern Jiangxi region has more manpower and land.
On the other hand, the southern Jiangxi region has a better geographical location. It can radiate southward to South China, enter east China to Northeast to East China, and penetrate central China to Northwest.
This herbal medicine industry does not grow traditional Chinese herbal medicines, but grows pesticides and herbs that Hailufeng Company needs itself.
In other words, these herbs are the raw materials for extracting special pheromone components.
Including the recently used red fire ant expulsion potion and red fire ant bait potion, they are all produced by Gannan Branch.
As China pays more and more attention to food safety and pesticide residue issues, Hailufeng Company's pheromone pesticide will become larger and larger.
The pheromone pesticide has been officially put into use for only more than seven months. The pheromone pesticide worth 140 million yuan has been consumed within Hailufeng Company alone, plus the use of other cooperative enterprises and growers.
The pheromones pesticide factory of Gannan Branch achieved a turnover of 430 million yuan this year. Although the gross profit margin is only about 34%, it is precisely because of this model of small profits and high turnover that has played a crucial role in promoting the development of the entire market.
Because of small profits and rapid sales, many growers and planting companies are willing to purchase.
Nearly 39% of the raw materials of the pheromone pesticide plant are from "herbs" grown locally in southern Gan. In order to grow these herbs, Hailufeng Company signed contracts with 1,736 growers to let them specialize in planting specific herbs, and paid 228 million yuan in procurement fees for this.
The scale of this planting will be expanded next year, and it is planned to expand to more than 5,000 households.
Mainly, many farm operators saw that Hailufeng Company's self-operated farms and cooperative farms have achieved cost reduction and efficiency improvement by using special pheromone pesticides, and this pheromone pesticide will basically not have pesticide residues.
However, in the future, the production of pheromone pesticides will definitely not be the only area in southern Jiangxi, because in order to avoid the concentration of risks of a single production area, multiple production areas will definitely be needed.
One layout in the southwest, one layout in North China, and one layout in the northwest and northeast.
Each region arranges two or three counties to specialize in planting to avoid being taken away from sudden natural disasters.
This is also a major disadvantage of current pheromone pesticides, which is that they are highly dependent on natural plant extracts.
After all, humans are helpless at this time when many natural macromolecular organic compounds are or the cost of artificial synthesis is high.
At this stage, Hailufeng Company’s plan is a two-pronged approach.
Layout the research and development project of artificial synthesis technology for the core components of pheromone pesticides.
At the same time, artificial breeding technology is used to cultivate herbal varieties with higher special ingredients.
No matter which direction you make a breakthrough, Hailufeng Company will make sure to make a profit without losing money.
Gannan Branch promotes the cultivation of herbs, new varieties of oil tea, alfalfa and specialty vegetables and fruits locally, and local transportation restrictions have also increasingly affected the external export of products. Therefore, as the second airship was put into test flight, the Gannan Branch agreed with the local government to build a large airport in southern Gannan. At the same time, it plans to purchase five Blue Whale Type 1 airships from the Blue Whale Airship Company to solve the problems of unobstructed roads in mountainous areas and high road transportation costs.
The location of Gannan Airport is located in the northern part of Xihua Township in Nankang District, and is also very close to the main river channel of the Ganjiang River.
Plan it out.
The local area will hold a household-by-household negotiation, hoping to complete the land expropriation as soon as possible.
In addition, every local county has obtained a small airport planning plan.
The design of these small airports is very simple. In order to avoid occupying low arable land, small airports are planned to be built in mountains near the road, cutting several ridges, and paving them with reinforced concrete, plus navigation towers.
Because it is built in the mountains, in order to facilitate transportation of containers to the top platform, hoisting facilities and tracks are needed to facilitate the linkage between the top platform and the foot of the mountain road.
The platform on the top of the mountain does not need to be vast in area. It is 500 meters long and 200 width is enough. It can be temporarily parked and loaded and unloaded for a full airship.
After all, a county sometimes can’t collect dozens of containers a day. The Blue Whale Type 1 airship can transport 6 to 10 containers in one trip, which is probably four or five trips.
This kind of close-range mountain transportation is mainly to make up for the insufficient density of mountain roads and the extremely low cost-effectiveness of mountain road transportation.
Every county town in southern Jiangxi is ready to cooperate with Hailufeng Company to select more suitable locations.

Especially in Dayu County.
Hailufeng Company not only wants to build an airship airport here, but also plans to build a special inland transport ship crane base.
This crane base must be located on the Gan River, and there must be a large lake surface, which can allow 2,000-ton inland transport ships to moor, so that airships can descend to the lake surface to lift the transport ships.
Of course, this project is not an independent project, but a supporting project.
Because at least two transport ship mooring areas are required to achieve the connection of inland transport ships in the two places.
This project is to alleviate the problem of insufficient traffic efficiency in the Guangdong-Jiangxi Canal. After all, you have to pass the first-level locks. You need to stop the ship and wait in line every time. Sometimes you need to wait in line for several days after passing the locks.
Although the goods transported inland rivers are usually stored-resistant coal mines, mineral sand, building materials, etc., the cost of using the gate can be quickly passed, and many ship owners are willing to use it.
Because in this case, it means that the transport ship can run several more trips.
In addition, the Guangdong-Jiangxi Canal has not been fully connected, and it is expected that all engineering renovations will be completed. It will take a wait until around 2030, and it will be more than two years before the full navigation can be achieved.
As for why gondolas is used to cross the river, the answer is naturally that the transportation cost of airships is slightly higher than that of river transport ships. For goods that do not pursue timeliness, inland transport is the first choice.
In order to seize this great opportunity, the local area in southern Gannan has shown all efforts to cooperate with various projects of Hailufeng Company.
Xihua Township, which was chosen to be the airship hub airport, is also rapidly advancing land acquisition work. The local area has also approved the upgrading and renovation projects of three core highways, with the purpose of improving transportation carrying capacity.
Hailufeng Company, which is not short of money, has also invested in many supporting facilities in the local area, including employee communities, photovoltaic power generation systems, water purification systems, and energy storage systems.
These investments are made through loans.
But major domestic banks have not rejected Hailufeng Company’s loan application, basically you can get the money as soon as you apply.
After all, these projects have huge technical support. As long as Hailufeng Company does not commit suicide, it is basically a business that is stable and profitable. This kind of loan is much safer than giving real estate loans. Banks want Hailufeng Company to borrow more loans.
