Chapter 203: Leaving a clean and fertile land for future generations
I saw that Li Zhimin was interested in this.
Su Wenchen was naturally very happy because this way they could obtain large amounts of high-quality forage more easily.
It is then paired with their local grass, leaves, bran and other ingredients.
Then the scale of leather rabbit breeding is probably larger than he expected.
Of course, this also depends on how things develop in the future. After all, such things cannot be completely predicted.
But overall it's a good thing, because he didn't intend to spend too much time on the leather rabbit industry.
Even if it weren't for helping Jiang Li, they might not have chosen this industry first. Now it seems that this industry may still have the potential to become big.
However, even if it gets bigger, it may still be compared to a pig.
Because in their country, pork is the main meat supply for the people.
In this regard, other livestock such as cattle, sheep, and chickens cannot compare.
Otherwise, he would not have followed and escorted the breeding pigs all the way for the safety of the breeding pigs.
But after going out for a walk, Su Wenchen also discovered a lot of things. Knowing is one thing, but if you don't go out and experience it in the field, it will be difficult to put it into practice even if you know some knowledge.
Just like now.
If he had not come here in person, he would never have known that there were such large areas of saline-alkali land in the Yellow River floodplain.
However, Su Wenchen really had no way of introducing this kind of forage by himself.
One, he has to escort the breeding pigs to Shanghai, and it is impossible for him to stay here for this matter.
Another thing is that this is not something that can be done in a day or two.
So he also has to communicate with the new deputy director Zhang Zhenhua. Since the other party is here, he has to work for them, right?
Otherwise it would be a waste of time to learn.
Su Wenchen didn't care what the other party's purpose was in coming to their place.
But now that I'm here, I can't leave without making some effort.
Thinking of this, he looked at Li Zhimin's expectant eyes.
Su Wenchen said directly.
"Director Li, let's put it this way! I have something more important to do here, otherwise I wouldn't be escorting this car myself."
"Well, let me borrow your phone to talk to the deputy director of the field."
"He also learned about this kind of forage when he was working at the provincial farm, so you really need him to contact you about this matter."
"Especially some planting details and introduction conditions. I'm afraid you will have to discuss it with Longshan Farm in our province at that time."
"The most we can do is act as a middleman for you."
Su Wenchen would definitely not care as much about Li Zhimin's Dongfeng Commune as he does about their Beiwan Commune.
After all, the other person is neither his wife nor his son, so why should she wait for him to feed her food?
Being able to give directions and act as a middleman is enough to pay for the meal.
As for how to negotiate specifically and what needs to be paid, they need to work hard for it themselves.
Even if the negotiations fail or other accidents occur, Su Wenchen will not care too much, because the Yellow River flood area is only this one area.
There are more on the south bank.
A large number of communes were guarding a large area of saline-alkali land, cursing the evil God, but at the same time they worked even harder to divert water and dig canals to flush the saline-alkali land over and over again.
After the salt content drops to a level suitable for planting, the land will be reclaimed and turned into an experimental field for growing crops.
No matter how difficult a place is to govern, it will eventually become fertile land through the hard work of generations.
Their people have always been like this.
When Li Zhimin heard that Su Wenchen asked a deputy director to come forward to liaise with him, he was already very satisfied.
Because he didn't expect Su Wenchen to really follow up on this matter personally.
"Brother Su, don't worry. Whether this succeeds or not, I will definitely appreciate your kindness."
"I know that since you, a field manager, can personally escort the vehicle, it must be an important matter, and I cannot delay your mission."
"Well, let's eat quickly, and after we finish eating, you can use my office phone to communicate with your team directly."
"After we finish this, I will immediately arrange for someone to take you across the river. Your mission will definitely not be delayed. Brother Su, what do you think?"
Su Wenchen agreed with a smile.
"Okay, let's eat it quickly, but this fish is so big, I'm afraid the two of us can't finish it!"
Li Zhimin patted his belly.
"Brother Su, don't worry. Eat as much as you want. I'll take care of the rest. We must not waste it."
As he said this, he started to wolf down the steamed bread.
Obviously he is quite anxious now and wants to know quickly whether this kind of forage grass can be grown.
Because this concerns the livelihood of thousands of people in their commune in the next few years.
Seeing this, Su Wenchen also quickened his pace, but the salty and astringent taste of the steamed bread that was soaked with saltwort was not very tasty for him.
So he focused more on the fish.
However, the chef’s cooking skills are indeed good, and are not inferior to those of many state-owned restaurants in the county.
In addition, the ingredients were authentic and fresh, so Su Wenchen was quite satisfied with the meal.
Finish a meal quickly.
Su Wenchen followed Li Zhimin into the other party's office.
As soon as I entered, I saw the slightly yellowed "Diagram of Salt-Alkali Land Improvement in Dongfeng People's Commune" hanging on the wall.
There is already a small part of the square shape on it, which has been circled.
Li Zhimin saw Su Wenchen's gaze.
Li Zhimin said in a somewhat heavy tone.
"This is the result of our ancestors' hard work over the years."
"Back then, Guangtou had people dig up the Huayuankou, which caused the Yellow River to overflow and formed large areas of flooded areas."
"Since my father's generation, they have been governing it bit by bit, but there was no one to organize it at that time."
"As far as I can remember, he brought people from a dozen nearby villages and used wicker baskets to carry soil from the unaffected areas in the north to peel the bark and replace the soil."
"Because the distance is too far, it may even take several days to transport it back, and coupled with limited manpower, the progress is too slow."
"Later, the government was established to control the Yellow River and the floodplain, and finally someone took charge."
"It was also from that time that we had advanced technology and human support, and we were able to use water to treat alkali and deep plowing to cultivate the fields. These were all developed little by little at that time."
"The amount of improved farmland has also increased significantly since then. Although it cannot be compared with the vast Yellow River flood area, the amount of improved farmland in the past 20 years has increased by hundreds of times compared with the 20 years when my father and his family lived there."
"I hope that this saline-alkali land can be completely treated in our generation, leaving clean and fertile land for future generations."
As he spoke, Li Zhimin picked up the enamel teacup on the table and took a sip of water.
Su Wenchen looked at the words "Model in Alkali Control" written on the teacup. He didn't expect that the other party seemed to have worked his way up from the bottom up. No wonder he cared so much about the land.
So he affirmed it directly.
"Yes, and I believe that the speed of governance will become faster and faster."
"Maybe, Director Li, you will be able to see the day when we completely complete the treatment in your lifetime."
When Li Zhimin heard Su Wenchen say this, he smiled and pointed to the map on the paper.
"I can't believe it. It took us 40 years to complete something this big."
“If I can accomplish 80 percent of this in my lifetime, I will be satisfied.”
"Because by then, we won't have to worry about going hungry anymore."
Su Wenchen looked at the other person's expression and knew that before they experienced it personally, no one would dare to believe it in just a few decades.
They are now in a situation where they can only eat half full in most places, and even need to drink water to fill their stomachs.
It has become the world's second largest economy, and has even become the world's number one in many aspects.
But this.
Su Wenchen felt that even if he told it to others, even the most optimistic people in the country would not believe it at all.
I even thought that he might be suffering from hysteria, otherwise he wouldn't say such unreliable things.
After all, you want to be the second in the world? What about the big brother who is watching you from the sidelines?
Of course, if someone really asked this, Su Wenchen would definitely tell him that it would be swept into the history pile.
Li Zhimin also pointed at the phone.
"Brother Su, please contact your farm! I'll go over and help you arrange the crossing of the river."
Seeing Su Wenchen nod, he walked out of the office.
Su Wenchen also withdrew his thoughts, picked up the phone receiver, and began to dial the corresponding numbers on the dial pad clockwise.
"Prepare for war, prepare for famine, and serve the people! Hello! This is Lan City Telephone Bureau. Which unit do you want to connect to?"
"Help me connect to the Blue Water State Livestock Farm!"
"Okay, wait a moment!"
"Grasp the revolution, promote production, this is the Lanshui State-Owned Livestock Farm!"
Hearing Xu Xiangqian shouting the slogan that was familiar to this era, Su Wenchen spoke directly.
"I'm Su Wenchen! Where's Deputy Director Li?"
Hearing Su Wenchen's voice, Xu Xiangqian on the other end of the phone became serious.
"Director, Deputy Director Li is out. I don't know where he went, but Deputy Director Han is here now. How about I go ask him?"
Su Wenchen thought about it.
"Go and tell Deputy Director Han to notify Deputy Director Zhang as soon as possible and have him call me back. I'll be waiting here!"
"Okay, Director. I'll go and inform Deputy Director Han right away."
Han Yang took a sip of tea.
He sat comfortably on the sofa in the lounge, with his other foot resting on the wooden coffee table in front of him.
He murmured.
"Sure enough, this kind of sofa is really comfortable to lie on!"
"No, just move all the remaining sofas from Shiquan over here."
"Put one in each office, otherwise it will be a bit inconvenient to come to the employee lounge when you are old!"
"Sure enough, the days when the director is not around are good days!"
The next moment, Xu Xiangqian rushed in hurriedly.
"Deputy Director Han! Deputy Director Han!"
Han Yang withdrew his foot unhappily and looked at Xu Xiangqian who was in a hurry.
"No need to keep emphasizing the word 'deputy'. I am the director when the director is not around!"
"And what's wrong with you today? Why don't you knock before coming in?"
Xu Xiangqian touched his head in confusion, took a few steps back and looked at the door.
I didn’t go the wrong way!
This is the staff lounge!
At this time, Han Yang also realized that this was not in his office.
"Ahem! You should be more calm even in the lounge. Although I am not in charge of the situation now, you should still speak calmly and steadily in the future. Is there anything wrong?"
Hearing this, Xu Xiangqian immediately slowed down his tone and said
"Han Chang, the director said he wants to find Deputy Chang Zhang. When he finds him, ask him to call him back quickly. He's waiting!"
The moment he heard what the manager said, Han Yang sat up immediately. He thought Su Wenchen had returned.
I heard that Zhang Zhenhua was asked to call him back.
Han Yang finally relaxed.
"Deputy Director Zhang and Section Chief Hou have gone to Shiquan Field. You can just call their office directly."
"By the way, don't speak like you're breathing heavily next time. Speak more quickly."
After saying that, he waved his hand.
"Okay, go call and inform Shiquanchang!"
Xu Xiangqian walked out of the lounge, closed the door, and immediately revealed a look of contempt.
"Humph, when there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey becomes king. Look how proud you are of yourself!"
"The first part asked me to speak more slowly, and the second part asked me to speak more quickly."
"What a villain succeeding!"
"If someone doesn't know, they would think you are the director. Don't emphasize the word 'deputy'!"
“Just emphasize it, just emphasize it!”
