Chapter 328 How could Xiao Su be the kind of person who only thinks about taking advantage of others?
Su Wenchen looked at Qiu Ruimin, who had become completely silent in the field.
"Old comrade?"
"How's it going? The fertility of our field is pretty good, isn't it?"
"We used a lot of fertilizer to get this harvest!"
When Qiu Ruimin heard this, his face flushed immediately, and his hands were shaking as he pointed at Su Wenchen!
"You guys actually harvested the crops at the end and applied fertilizer!"
"I-I. Humph!"
In the end, he didn't know what to say. It wasn't like anyone was holding his head down and making him taste it!
It was a habit he had formed after studying soil for so many years. Although he had tasted soil with fertilizer before, it was only for experiments and he didn't really feel anything about it.
But now after being told this by this kid, he felt like he had eaten shit, and he was really disgusted by this kid.
At the same time, I started cursing in my heart.
Didn't he just question it?
This kid is so disgusting to me, he is not a human being at all.
But even though he knew that this kid was secretly disgusting him, there was nothing he could do!
After studying the soil for many years, he knew very well that this saline-alkali land had indeed been improved, and the salinity had dropped to a very low level. At least growing crops would not affect the yield at all.
At this point, he looked like a clown.
If we continue to argue about this, it would be really far-fetched.
Moreover, he took a look at the eyes of their Lin Yuan and knew that he had not been able to hold back and had caused some trouble for the courtyard again.
At this moment, he still felt a little regretful. This bad mouth would cause him trouble every day.
But at this time, Deputy Director Cai of the Institute of Microbiology was also very curious.
Because it specializes in the study of microorganisms.
Therefore, he knew very well that their current research on microbial flora was very incomplete and probably only the tip of the iceberg.
Even if something happens that is beyond his understanding.
They were more excited because this meant they could take another big step forward into the unknown.
So he couldn't help but ask Su Wenchen.
"Director Su, I'm really curious about how you cultivate your bacterial flora!"
"What new strain is it based on?"
"I wonder if you could take us to see the incubator? I'm really curious!"
Because in his opinion, no matter how you look at it, the conditions for cultivating microorganisms are indeed not available here!
Even if these bacteria have no effect, we don't even have an electron microscope here, so we can't even observe them. How can we cultivate the bacterial community for experiments?
So he was really curious about the other party's way of cultivating bacterial flora.
Because he knew very well that the reason why microbial research in various places is progressing slowly is that their country's current development in precision industry is not as good as that of the West.
The construction of various sterile environments is relatively backward.
He believes that if a new approach can be found to solve the problem, it will greatly promote the development of microbial research.
Whether it is the production of various antibiotics or the research of various vaccines, the essence is to cultivate various useful bacterial strains.
Su Wenchen's tone towards Deputy Director Cai, who spoke very politely, was naturally not the same as the one he used to deliberately anger the old comrade.
The old man started questioning me right away.
Although it did help Su Wenchen indirectly, it would not be said that he was very happy about it.
He is a very vindictive person.
Although this is not a big grudge, don't expect to get a good response from him.
So Su Wenchen also explained to Deputy Director Cai.
"Actually, I've said this before, we really don't have much research on microorganisms."
"As for how to cultivate special bacteria, our method is actually difficult to control manually!"
"As for the bacterial incubator, it's quite special. If you'd like to know, I can take you on a tour. Then you'll definitely understand everything."
After Su Wenchen finished speaking, the other party nodded immediately.
"Okay then. I'll trouble Director Su."
"Don't worry, no matter what, this cultivation technology was developed by your Blue Water Farm."
When Su Wenchen heard this, he smiled and shook his head.
"Director Cai, this cultivation technique is actually really hard to replicate!"
"It's just a solution at best."
After saying this, he said to Miao Zhiguo and others.
"You guys take a break. Then we'll call a tractor and take all the wheat to the threshing ground for threshing."
"When the time comes to thresh, let them thresh separately, and then weigh them to see how much the harvest is!"
Miao Zhiguo agreed immediately.
"Okay, Director, we'll go get someone to take it back. We'll spend the afternoon sun-drying it. It'll take an hour or two this afternoon to finish it."
After Su Wenchen finished explaining, Lu Anguo immediately pulled away and said to Su Wenchen.
"Let's go!"
"You can get in my car. I have something to tell you right now!"
When Su Wenchen heard this, he brushed off the thick dust on his body.
"Chief, aren't you afraid that I'll dirty your car?"
Lu Anguo rolled his eyes.
"It's dirty, so stop wasting time."
"It's really hot out here. It's really good weather for harvesting, but it's going to be hard work."
"You farm workers, please pay attention at noon!"
"If you're not careful in this weather, you'll get a heat stroke!"
Su Wenchen simply dusted himself off and got into the car.
"Don't worry, Director, we have all the logistics prepared."
"But if the director really wants to show some concern for our farm workers through concrete actions, then I would like to thank the director on behalf of our workers!"
When Lu Anguo heard this, he patted the driver's seat in front of him helplessly.
"drive!"
Then he spoke to Su Wenchen.
"That's enough!"
"With the limited resources in our bureau, there's no way we can afford to exploit your farm like that. I even had to use my connections to get those two harvesters."
"Tell me the truth, what are you thinking this time!"
"This is clearly not your usual style."
"Why did they notify the Academy of Agricultural Sciences first? Why not notify our ministry?"
Facing Lu Anguo's serious questioning, Su Wenchen deliberately moved his eyes away from the car window.
But he said it directly.
"Look at what you said, Director. What can I think? This is just a coincidence."
Although he said this, Su Wenchen was thinking in his heart.
Ask quickly! Ask quickly!
Hearing this, Lu Anguo naturally didn't believe it.
Because he believed that with Su Wenchen's ability, it would be absolutely impossible for Liu Xun to find out about the Blue Water Farm in advance as long as he didn't want to.
Especially since this was on the Blue Water Farm's territory, he didn't believe that Su Wenchen couldn't get the person away!
So at this moment he was even more curious!
Directly affirmed.
"Impossible, you definitely have other plans."
Then he played the emotional card with Su Wenchen.
"Xiao Su, just tell me how Uncle Lu treats you."
"Ever since your farm was assigned to our bureau, I've been very kind to you."
"Whether it's large agricultural machinery or diesel quotas, when has the bureau ever refused?"
"You can't think about others when good things happen to you!"
At this time, I looked out the window and saw other people starting to get on the bus one after another. There were even several people who secretly went to the fields, grabbed several handfuls of soil, wrapped them in oil paper, and put them in their pockets.
Lu Anguo continued.
"Don't worry, no matter what your plan is, you can tell the bureau!
"Why would we need outsiders? As long as the bureau can help, we will definitely help!"
"You are now the most competitive farm in our bureau, don't you think?"
When Su Wenchen heard this, his eyes rolled. Seeing that the other party was playing the emotional card, he directly responded.
"Uncle Lu, since you've said that, I definitely can't hide it from you!"
"I do have some immature ideas, and I need your guidance, Uncle Lu."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Anguo immediately looked at Su Wenchen suspiciously.
Are you letting go now?
Why does it feel like he has been fooled?
However, he was indeed a little curious at this time, but he still patched it up.
"Xiao Su, it's no problem for me to give you an idea, but if it involves machinery, the bureau may not be able to help you."
"You know, there are so many farms all over the country, and your farm has indeed achieved some success in recent years."
"But we can't just ignore the fate of other farms, right?"
When Su Wenchen heard Lu Anguo say this, he knew that it might be the psychological stress caused by the director's prank.
However, they did get a lot of various mechanical equipment from the bureau in the past two years, and Su Wenchen also knew that even if he only wanted to get one sheep, he couldn't always get it from the same place.
You must change your position from time to time and pull in circles so that it is not easily noticed.
So just guarantee it.
"Uncle Lu, I treat you as my own uncle, how could you think of me like this!"
"Don't worry, our farm is doing well now. If you hadn't come to see how hard we are, I wouldn't have filed a report with the bureau to apply for a harvester."
"Director, you see, I've even been to the fields myself. Have I ever complained to the bureau about my hardship?"
After Su Wenchen finished speaking, he still looked aggrieved.
See this situation.
Lu Anguo thought about it carefully and felt that he had indeed overreacted.
Although Blue Water Farm was short of harvesters, it had never asked the bureau for help before.
It seemed that he took the initiative to speak out because he felt a little guilty about not notifying Blue Water Farm when he came here this time.
As for the large tractors in front, it seemed that the minister took the initiative to make the decision.
If you really count it, the only thing people want is the diesel quota.
Lu Anguo could actually understand this very well.
Without oil, this agricultural machine will not run and will just sit there as a useless lump of metal.
Think about it this way.
He felt that he seemed to have gone a little too far. How could Xiao Su be the kind of person who only thought about taking advantage of others all day long?
So I added directly.
"Xiao Su, I was wrong!"
"Don't worry, as long as they don't need machinery, the bureau will definitely do its best to help your farm with some policies or coordination with other departments!"
Although he now feels that he is overthinking it, Lu Anguo still needs to make up for it!
Seeing this, Su Wenchen said directly.
"Uncle Lu, don't worry. We can still overcome this difficulty of lacking agricultural machinery on our own for the time being!"
"I thought so!"
"You also know that we have already initially mastered the method of using microorganisms to solve the problem of saline-alkali land."
"So seeing the people around me still enduring the various problems caused by saline-alkali land, I really can't bear it!"
"Plus, it's not that easy to spread this method! Not only are the technologies unfamiliar, but the costs are also unaffordable for poorer regions."
"We may also have to worry about whether there are other sequelae!"
"I thought that the department should first coordinate all the surrounding saline-alkali land for us. That way, we will be more familiar with the technology and less likely to have accidents."
"In addition, a large amount of land is also used for testing, which will provide sufficient experimental samples in advance for subsequent large-scale rollout."
Listening to Su Wenchen's introduction bit by bit, Lu Anguo nodded frequently.
"I think your idea is very good. It takes into account the difficulties faced by the people as well as the unknown concerns that may arise."
"I totally agree with this!"
Hearing Lu Anguo say this, Su Wenchen's eyes lit up.
"Director, you think it's good, right?"
"Does the bureau agree to this?"
Lu Anguo didn't know Su Wenchen's specific plan yet, so he spoke directly.
"That's a good thing! The bureau will definitely approve. Which commune are you planning to include?"
"It's not difficult. We can just negotiate with the local authorities when the time comes."
Su Wenchen raised his hand and gently pinched it with his thumb and index finger.
"The saline-alkali land we have included this time may be a bit more than that."
"We plan to include all the saline-alkali land in Dangshan County, Xiao County, Feng County, and Pei County at once."
"This way, with more land, we can provide enough samples, don't you think so, leader?"
At this time, everyone in Luanguo was a little confused.
"Are you right? Four counties? Not four communes?"
"Do you know how much land these four counties have combined?"
Su Wenchen nodded immediately.
"We learned all about it when we first established the branch."
"The total arable land area of these four counties combined is about six million mu!"
"However, nearly two million mu (approximately 1.5 acres) of land are severely affected by salinization, making many areas uncultivable. Even with simple treatment measures, some areas still have very limited grain yields, reaching only 70 to 80 kilograms per mu."
Lu Anguo rubbed his head helplessly at this time.
"You're so rude. That's two million acres, not two hundred acres."
"Also, even if we coordinate it for you, can you grow it?"
Su Wenchen knew that at this time, he definitely couldn't say anything ambiguous.
He patted his chest and made the promise.
"As long as our superiors give us this difficult task, we will do our best to complete it no matter how hard it is."
"And Director, these are originally saline-alkali lands, and many of them are simply left there uncultivated!"
"Anyway, these counties don't have the energy to develop these lands, so why not give them to us?"
Lu Anguo rubbed his head.
"You say it's easy, but this is not just one or two acres. It's not that easy for local people to give up."
He now really felt that his previous definition was too early.
Xiao Su is indeed not thinking about taking advantage every day, because this kid always takes big advantages.
He is not a fool.
At this time, he also understood why Blue Water Farm was so anxious to incorporate these saline-alkali lands into their farm first.
Although he is still not clear about how the bacterial community that can treat alkali was cultivated.
But he was sure that the cost would not be too high.
Seeing Lu Anguo's hesitation, Su Wenchen knew that the other party would not agree so easily.
So he spoke directly.
"Director Lu, it's not easy for the local authorities to relent, so we can talk!"
"Also, let's not talk about the slow pace of local development."
"From the perspective of the country alone, we should be given priority in managing these saline-alkali lands."
"Director, think about it, if all these lands are allocated to our farm, after these lands are managed well."
"How much more grain can our farm contribute to the country every year?"
"The proportion of grain this farm submits every year is much higher than that of the production team!"
"Even the highest proportion of public grain in our current production teams is only 15%."
“But many of our farm units only turn over 30 to 50 percent!”
"Even in difficult times, there were cases where 80% of the goods were requisitioned!"
"So if this land is allocated to us, our bureau will be able to purchase a much larger proportion of grain each year."
"Also, Director, the public grain for this area is ultimately coordinated by the Ministry's Agricultural Bureau, but the grain for the farms is coordinated by our Agricultural Reclamation Bureau."
"Although it all ends up in the big pot of the national grain depot, it makes a difference which unit pours the grain into it!"
"I think this is not only good for our farm, but also good for the bureau."
Hear this last sentence.
Lu Anguo had to admit that this kid was really good at tricking people into thinking they were good.
He knew that the other party would definitely not hand over the procurement ratio as readily as he had just said.
But the other party was right about one thing.
It really makes a difference who pours the food into this pot.
If there is a sudden food shortage in a certain place and tasks are assigned from above, whoever solves more and who solves less is a reflection of their ability.
So the fact that Blue Water Farm has a lot of land is indeed a good thing for them.
In particular, Lanshui Farm is directly under the ministry.
Unlike the farms in the Great Northern Wilderness, they are under the dual leadership of the local government and their agricultural reclamation bureau.
Before carrying out the grain procurement task, coordination with the local authorities is required.
Especially the saline-alkali lands in the Yellow River flood area are lands that are not under the current plan and cannot be used.
There was a long silence.
Lu Anguo looked up and saw Su Wenchen looking at him with expectant eyes.
Said helplessly.
"Don't worry, I need to think about this!"
"This isn't just one or two acres! This is two million acres."
"The farm with the most registered land in our bureau, which is also the earliest mechanized demonstration farm, only has a total of two million mu."
"You want to be at the forefront of the country all of a sudden. Your appetite is a bit too big."
"If this goes through and the negotiations don't go well, the provincial boss might even have to go and file a complaint against us!"
"I need to ask my leader for his opinion on this, otherwise I will be in a passive position in the future."
Su Wenchen nodded quickly. He also knew that this was a difficult matter. At first, he actually wanted to coordinate with the local authorities himself, but then he thought about it carefully.
I still don't think it works.
The main reason is that this involves too much land. If it is not approved by the higher authorities, problems will easily arise as long as someone with ulterior motives instigates it.
So Su Wenchen thought about this matter for a long time and still needed the approval of the top leaders.
Then they can take some appropriate benefits to appease the local people, so that they can take over these two million acres of land more safely.
Once these lands are managed, their farm will have filled the final gap in raw materials.
In the future, whether it is large-scale breeding, or gradual expansion into the food processing field, or other fields.
This way, the autonomy is completely in your own hands.
Especially after the reform and opening up, when state-owned enterprises are reformed into market-oriented ones, they can also take advantage of the opportunity to establish farm groups.
Maybe, it will eventually grow into a giant state-owned enterprise with great influence!
Therefore, land is a very crucial step in Su Wenchen's subsequent planning of the farm, and it is also a very critical competitive means to cope with market competition after the reform and opening up.
As someone who knows the general trend, he will naturally prepare some cards for himself in advance.
Just like when he first established the Blue Water Farm, he deliberately left the breeding chicken farm in the brigade.
Although many of these cards may not be used, it is better to prepare more than to end up with no cards to play.
So in response to Lu Anguo's carefully considered words, Su Wenchen directly complimented him.
"Director, we are not going to divide the fertile land of the local people, right?"
"So, boss, you still have to do more work for our farm!"
"Don't worry, Director. If this succeeds, once the governance is complete, our farm will definitely be obligated to meet the bureau's procurement requirements!"
After all, in Su Wenchen's opinion, it would probably take until the 1980s to complete the management of the two million acres of land.
At that time, food would not be as scarce as it is now.
So he would definitely not hesitate to ask for this kind of verbal check.
Facing Su Wenchen's check, Lu Anguo said unhappily.
"It's still fertile land for the local people. If you dare to speak up and say you want to allocate two million mu of fertile land for the local people, I won't dare to listen even if you dare to say it."
"Okay, I know about this. I will talk to my boss about it!"
"But all of this is premised on your ability to manage saline-alkali land on a large scale and at low cost!"
"Otherwise, it will be like what's happening on your farm right now. It took more than 10,000 people and a lot of food to completely treat 10,000 acres in half a year."
"At this rate, if you want to manage two million acres, it will probably take decades."
Su Wenchen knew what Lu Anguo meant and made the promise directly.
"Don't worry, Director. You'll know our costs when you go and take a look later."
However, Su Wenchen also knew that if there was really no such low-cost microbial method to treat alkali.
It will really take decades.
Because according to his understanding, the normal development path is to continue until around the millennium.
After all kinds of techniques and technologies have made great progress.
Finally, the problem of scabies in the Yellow River flood area in the heart of the Central Plains, which was a life-threatening but disgusting disease, was completely solved.
