If Qiao Qingyu considered spending two hundred thousand yuan last year to buy seeds somewhat acceptable, spending fifty million yuan now for subcontracting fees surely heightened her caution.
Moreover, she did not have a good impression of Wu Xiujie and his team, and she had her own plans, which she certainly did not agree with.
Still, within the bounds of policy, Wu Xiujie managed a tricky move and contracted the barren sandy land Qiao Qingyu intended to plant with Barley Grass this year.
If that land were all sown with Barley Grass, it would undoubtedly have the most notable effect on improving the soil climate of the area.
Wu Xiujie's lavish spending raised suspicions not just in He Xiuyu but in Qiao Qingyu as well, who always felt he had ulterior motives.
But it must be said, the Black Poplar trees he planted last year did survive to some extent.
He Shan's visit this time was also to take a firsthand look at the land contracted by Wu Xiujie.
