Chapter 732: I Want to Beco a Large-Scale Grain Grower

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhou Chao and Mr. Yi chatted in the office for almost an hour and a half. It was nearly twelve o’clock when Zhou Chao finally bid farewell.

They discussed a lot about cooperation, but Mr. Yi did not imdiately agree to Zhou Chao’s proposal. The main reason was Mr. Yi’s skepticism about the technology Zhou Chao ntioned. He couldn’t make up his mind for a while and could only postpone his decision, saying he needed to consider it.

Zhou Chao didn’t pay too much attention to Mr. Yi’s concerns. After all, it was their first eting, and considering Mr. Yi’s doubts about the soil conversion technology, it was normal to take so ti to think it over.

“Mr. Zhou, would you like to taste the cuisine from our institute?”

“Thank you for your kindness, Yi Lao. Not today, I have so other matters to attend to. I’ll definitely taste the delicacies from your institute next ti!” Zhou Chao politely declined Yi Lao’s invitation.

“Alright!” Yi Lao understood the implied aning in Zhou Chao’s words and felt a bit hopeful.

If what Mr. Zhou said was true, if the soil conversion technology really existed, it would be the biggest surprise for them, the desert control workers!

Yi Lao watched as Zhou Chao and his companion headed straight for a Rolls-Royce, driving away from the institute.

After a while, Yi Lao regained his senses and burst into laughter. “I hope everything he said is true!”

After the car left the desert institute, Lin Wu, with so doubt, asked, “Boss, why didn’t you just reveal your identity directly or coordinate with the relevant departnts?”

Zhou Chao quietly looked outside the window without responding to Lin Wu’s question. After about two or three minutes, he finally spoke, “The effect would be almost the sa. Think about it, if soone suddenly told you that we have advanced technology to land on Mars, would you believe it?”

“Um, I definitely wouldn’t believe it. Not to ntion sothing distant, landing on the moon currently requires a lot of effort, let alone the distant Mars!”

Lin Wu imdiately understood. Yi Lao, as an expert in desert governance, had devoted decades to reach where he was today. However, if soone suddenly ca out and claid that there was a technology that could eliminate desertification within a few years, who would believe it?

“Yeah, after years of hard work and research, the ergence of a revolutionary technology would nullify all their efforts. Even if it’s true, it would take ti for people to accept it. Moreover, the importance of this technology may exceed my expectations!”

Zhou Chao’s face also showed so seriousness as he spoke.

At first, Zhou Chao wanted to put this technology into practice, turning all the desertified areas in the country into green hills and clear waters. However, after talking with Yi Lao, Zhou Chao realized that he was still too shallow, and his vision didn’t see far enough.

There are over two million square kiloters of desertified areas in the country. If they were all transford into green hills and clear waters, the value would be imasurable. It’s worth noting that most of the current desertified areas are flat terrains, which can be used to cultivate various crops. Even if half of the area is used to grow crops like grains, the returns would be unimaginable.

The current total area of ​​grain cultivation in the country is only 1.2 million square kiloters, yet it feeds a population of 1.4 billion. If the planting area doubles, just thinking about it made Zhou Chao feel his legs trembling. Of course, this was an excited reaction.

“So, boss, what should we do now? Should we go back to the hotel?”

“Let’s go back to the hotel. I need to think about these matters carefully.” After saying this, Zhou Chao closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat, gathering his thoughts.

Lin Wu glanced at Zhou Chao through the rearview mirror and vaguely understood that his boss was planning another big project.

When the two returned to the hotel, they saw Si Cong sitting on the hotel sofa playing with his phone.

Seeing this, Zhou Chao smirked and exchanged a glance with Lin Wu, then quietly walked toward Si Cong from behind.

Approaching Si Cong from behind, they found him completely absorbed in watching a live stream on his phone, occasionally sending out so gifts, causing the female anchors to exclaim, “Brother, you’re amazing!”

“Hey, what’s up?” Zhou Chao gently tapped Si Cong on the shoulder.

Startled by the sudden touch, Si Cong’s phone flew out of his hand, drawing a beautiful arc in the air.

“Damn, my phone!” Si Cong exclaid in shock, attracting the attention of everyone in the hotel lobby.

Just when Si Cong thought his phone was about to shatter, a figure swiftly caught it in mid-air.

Si Cong breathed a sigh of relief, then rembered the person who had startled him earlier. His face turned dark, and he turned around to give a piece of his mind.

Seeing that the person behind him was Zhou Chao, Si Cong’s annoyed expression turned into astonishnt, then into frustration. “Young Master Zhou, can’t you be a bit more mature? You’re already so old, yet you still play childish pranks!”

“Hehe, I just saw you so engrossed in watching the beautiful girls, I thought I’d help you stay alert. By the way, where’s Keke? How co she’s not with you?” Zhou Chao grinned mischievously at Si Cong.

At the ntion of beautiful girls, Si Cong instantly perked up, feeling sowhat proud. “Humph, do I even need to say? She’s still sleeping. You should see the prowess of Si Cong, my friend!”

Instead of responding, Zhou Chao looked at Si Cong with a playful expression.
