Chapter 321 Director, has a new type of grain appeared?
The next day.
Accompanied by the singing coming from the loud speakers at the venue.
Hearing the loud speaker for getting up, Su Wenchen also opened the door of the reception dormitory!
However, when he walked to the gate of the site, he found that this did not seem to be a horn for getting up, but a horn for going to work!
Because at this time, farm workers had already come from all directions singing early in the morning and gathered together in the open space of the farm warehouse.
Some of those who were quick enough, after receiving the farm tools, had already started heading to their respective work locations under the leadership of their team leaders.
From time to time, there were employees walking and talking loudly with people around them, reminiscing about last night's pork meal.
Some people even asked directly after greeting Su Wenchen when they passed by him.
"Director, the pork last night was delicious. When will we slaughter the remaining pigs on our farm?"
At this time, the team leader walking in front quickly explained.
"What are you talking about, you idiot! Didn't you just eat meat last night?"
"Besides, if you want to ask, just ask. Why are you calling me Director?"
Hearing this, the other party immediately felt aggrieved.
"If not the Director, what else should I shout?"
"The former commune secretary is now called director of a service department, and the former commune director is now called director of a logistics department. How can we tell who is who without enlarging the font?"
Su Wenchen couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"We don't have big directors or small directors on our farm!"
"Just add my name. You can call me Director Su or Director Su Wenchen."
Hearing this, the other team leader quickly explained.
"Director, I'm sorry, this idiot doesn't know the rules. The commune hasn't been able to organize such large-scale work in recent years. In the past, everyone did their own thing, so..."
Su Wenchen waved his hand.
"It's okay, just explain it clearly."
"As for when to kill the remaining pigs!"
"Everyone, work hard! As soon as the complete set of drainage channels for the 10,000 mu of land in this commune is dug, we'll kill a few more pigs for you to enjoy!"
"So when you eat depends on how efficiently you work. The sooner you finish, the sooner you can eat meat!"
"Director, what you said is true!"
Bang!
As soon as the other party finished speaking, the team leader hit the person who said this on the back of the head.
"I just told you to call Director Su, why are you making such a fuss?"
"Besides, would the director lie to you for such a small matter?"
"Everyone, don't wait here. Finish it soon so you can eat meat sooner!"
Then he turned and said to Su Wenchen.
"Director, we're getting to work. Don't worry, I'll definitely supervise our team and finish the excavation of this section of the canal as soon as possible."
After saying that, he led the people from their production team and walked away carrying hoes.
When the news spread, the crowd burst into cheers.
Then, no one knew who started it, but the crowd immediately started humming loudly along with the song "We Workers Have Power" from the loudspeaker.
For a moment, even Su Wenchen was infected by the emotions and felt that he could not proceed slowly. He had to find someone to prepare a test site as soon as possible.
He needed to confirm whether the feces of native white rabbits, which had only been bred once, were effective in improving saline-alkali land and to what extent.
There is also Cordyceps sinensis needed for secondary cultivation of feed.
This thing is not easy to get at this time. He is afraid that he has to ask the headquarters to step in and communicate with the provincial medicinal materials company to find it.
He knew that this thing was very rare now. At this time, there were only wild resources in high-altitude areas such as Xinjiang and Qinghai, and it was extremely dependent on manual search by Tibetans.
Generally, they are allocated to key pharmaceutical factories according to plan for drug production.
After arriving at the cafeteria, Su Wenchen happened to see Cao Jiwen who had just finished his meal and was about to go out.
"Lao Cao, wait a minute. Your department is in charge of the land here. Please help me carve out a separate piece of saline-alkali land around the site."
"Then divide it into several pieces. It would be best if the pH value of each piece of saline-alkali land is different. I will use it for experiments later."
When Cao Jiwen heard this, he was a little confused, but he still spoke.
"Director, are you going to plant something on your own? Do you need help finding some people to take care of the land?"
Apparently, Cao Jiwen had heard Hou Guozhong talk about Su Wenchen quite a bit now.
Knowing our director, he might be an expert in breeding.
But farming is hard to describe.
After hearing this, Su Wenchen nodded with a relaxed look.
"Yes, yes, we really need to find a few people to take care of the land. Otherwise, if we don't plant anything, the contrast effect won't be very noticeable!"
After all, his ultimate goal is to make the land produce food.
If the pH value in the saline-alkali land is lowered but no crops grow, it will be meaningless.
So Su Wenchen added.
"The land doesn't need to be too big, one or two acres is enough. Just help me find two experienced farmers who know how to farm and fertilize. They don't need to know how to raise livestock."
Hearing Su Wenchen say this, Cao Jiwen immediately agreed, because there is a lack of everything here except saline-alkali land.
"Okay, Director. I'll go and help you find some salty, alkaline soil nearby."
"As for the people, I'll arrange for them to go there once the land is marked out."
"Director, are there any new grain varieties up there?"
Su Wenchen shook his head.
"It's not a good variety. If it works, it should be considered a special fertilizer! I'm not sure myself now!"
"As for this separate plot of land, we'll just plant wheat and corn, which are commonly grown locally. Oh, and add some alkali-tolerant alfalfa and some salsa grass."
"We'll plant one or two acres of each species and see which crops are most affected."
Although he didn't know what Su Wenchen was going to do, he was the leader after all, so Cao Jiwen agreed directly.
"Okay, Director. I'll arrange it right away."
For the next period of time, Su Wenchen's attention was mainly focused on the experimental field.
The spring sunshine is not very strong, but it makes people feel lazy and sleepy.
At the edge of the ditch in the experimental field, Su Wenchen was bending over after applying a basket of fertilizer to the compacted soil.
I couldn't help but stand up and pound my aching waist.
"Farm work is really not easy. I just applied this basket of rabbit manure and I feel like my waist is broken."
Hear Su Wenchen talking.
Several experienced workers in other experimental fields who were applying fertilizers according to different proportions also straightened up when they heard the sound.
There's even one.
He completely ignored the fact that his hand had just grabbed the fertilizer and took out a small bag of homemade tobacco from his pocket.
He grabbed some with his hands, rolled a cigarette with a strange smell and said.
"Director, just leave this little work to us, you can just take a rest!"
"But the ground is almost hardened. If we just apply fertilizer without digging ditches to remove the alkali, you should be prepared that it won't be very effective!"
"This is not soil compaction caused by insufficient fertilizer, but by excessive alkalinity. We have tried applying large amounts of fertilizer before, but the effect was not very good."
Su Wenchen looked at the recently tidied experimental field, smiled and shook his head.
"Don't worry, I'm mentally prepared!"
"Besides, I mainly want to see how effective this rabbit fertilizer is!"
After hearing this, the other party didn't say much, but after taking a puff of cigarette, the old master still felt that relying solely on fertilizing was too unreliable.
Because they have been here for so many years, they must have tried many possible methods.
In the end, a large amount of manpower and material resources had to be mobilized, and digging canals to divert groundwater was the most effective method.
At this moment, a young farm worker ran towards this side from a distance.
"Director! Director!"
After the other party ran over, he shouted at Su Wenchen while panting.
"Director, there's a convoy coming!"
"Director Ren, Director Ren asked me to call you!"
Hearing the other party's heavy breathing and urgent shouting, Su Wenchen patted the fertilizer residue on his hands.
"It's okay, don't worry, take a breath and talk slowly!"
"What convoy? Which department sent these people?"
After hearing Su Wenchen's words, the other party took a few breaths and thought for a while before replying.
"When they introduced themselves to Director Ren, they seemed to be from the Engineering Bureau. They said you had asked them to come and help build the site."
"Oh, right, there seem to be a few people who said they were from the main farm, and some people from the Animal Husbandry Research Institute also came along."
"Everyone is at the site right now. Director Yang has gone to open up new land, so only Director Ren is entertaining people!"
Hearing this, Su Wenchen immediately knew who it was.
But he didn't expect that the other party could arrange someone to come so quickly.
Could it be that the backbone base at the headquarters was built so quickly?
This speed is too fast!
All the projects that cannot be built are shoddy projects!
But he still brushed off the dust on his body and shouted to the veterans around him.
"I have something to do here, so I'll leave the rest of the work to you all."
"Make sure to apply fertilizer according to the ratio I allocated. Don't apply fertilizer evenly just to make all the crops grow!"
"I'm mainly looking at the effects of different fertilizers, not just for this little crop!"
If Su Wenchen didn't give them some instructions, he was really afraid that these people would be reluctant to waste the crops and would end up fertilizing them all with good intentions.
This way he won’t know what effect the specific proportions have!
Hearing Su Wenchen's instructions, someone immediately patted his chest and made a promise.
"Director, don't worry, it's all written on every wooden sign!"
"If one ounce of fertilizer is needed, we definitely won't apply two ounces! For plots of land that can't be fertilized, we guarantee that not even a single drop of manure will be allowed to pass through!"
"We've been farming for so many years, how could we make such a mistake?"
Su Wenchen also smiled and nodded.
"Okay then. I'll trouble you guys to take care of these experimental plots. The only thing you must do is apply fertilizer according to the ratio and type I specified. For the rest, just take care of them like normal crops."
"No matter what happens, you will have contributed to it!"
"Director, don't worry about this!"
"We promise to take good care of it and apply fertilizer according to your instructions."
