Chapter 437 Oil Sunflower
The two chatted for a while, and when Li Lu saw that it was almost time and had no intention of staying for lunch, she stood up and said goodbye.
Not long after she left, Dai Lihua came back carrying a lot of bags.
"An An, long time no see. I just got back. Let me see the child."
Dai Lihua has lost a lot of weight. This time she was assigned to be a military doctor to provide combat support, which was not easy.
As soon as he came back, he heard that Lin Anan had given birth, so he hurried to the Chu family.
"Sister Lihua, Zhuangzhuang is sleeping."
Dai Lihua quickly lowered her voice and moved her hands and feet more gently.
When he got closer, he was very surprised. "Wow, he looks really good. He looks like you."
Lin's mother had quarreled with Dai Lihua before. Although they reconciled, it was still a bit awkward when they met.
However, both sides had a tacit understanding. One pretended not to see the other, and nodded to each other as a greeting.
When talking about the barren mountain farming, Dai Lihua praised Lin Anan generously, "This is a great thing! Do you know that your so-called little effort may help so many people and families..."
"What's the big deal? I just mentioned it casually."
"You really don't want to take any credit, you are too honest."
Lin Anan smiled and waved her hands, "It's just a small matter, don't take it seriously."
"This is no small matter for them. It is an opportunity and even more so, hope..."
The "they" that Dai Lihua was referring to was naturally the group of disabled retired soldiers.
Zhuangzhuang yawned in his cradle, his little brows frowned, and then relaxed.
"Sister Lihua, it's not that exaggerated."
Dai Lihua has been to many places and often worked on the front line. She has come into contact with countless wounded patients and has a deeper understanding of disabled soldiers than anyone else.
Besides, her own husband was also one of this group of people, and she knew better than anyone how important the job was to them.
The two chatted about the matter of breeding in the barren mountains. When Dai Lihua learned that Lin's father was also going to Suzhou to try this out, her eyes lit up, "You said that my uncle wanted to bring high-quality seeds back to the south?"
"Yes, my dad likes to make trouble, so let him go back and try."
"An An, when will uncle leave?"
Lin Anan paused, "About a week left, what's wrong?"
Dai Lihua rubbed her hands on her thighs. "Do you know the sunflowers in Mu River in the northwest?"
sunflower?
Lin Anan really doesn’t know this.
"Sunflowers are easy to grow. There is plenty of sunlight in the south. As long as the drainage of the soil is good, you can grow them anywhere."
"Sister Lihua, what do you mean?"
"My maternal family lives next to the Mu River. Their entire village grows sunflowers. Not only do they have the best sunflower varieties in China, they also imported oil-producing sunflowers from the Soviet Union.
But... the environment there is harsh, and sunflowers can't go out! Sucheng is a good place. If I want to find some crops from the northwest to try, would you like to... give it a try? "
Lin Anan's heart moved.
Some time ago, she read a report on the military farm that in the near future... within two years at most, oil-producing sunflower seeds will be officially included in the national plan.
If we could introduce this species at this time...it might have better prospects than wolfberry.
"Sister Lihua, wait a minute."
Lin Anan shouted outside the house.
When Lin's mother heard that she wanted to call Old Lin in, she was a little confused.
Father Lin was leaning on Lin Anan's "personal" rocking chair, rocking gently, and stroking Tuanzi's dog head with his hand.
Chu Mingzhou was not there. If he were there, he would have discovered that the father-in-law and his young wife were indeed father and daughter, even their subconscious movements were exactly the same.
"Lao Lin, your daughter is calling you!"
“Here I come.”
Father Lin basically never enters Lin Anan's room, especially when there are guests in his daughter's room, he will not join in the fun.
Only after being called did he swiftly enter the house.
Lin Anan hurriedly introduced the two people and talked about the sunflower.
"sunflower?"
"Dad, sunflowers are good things. Not only are they the main ingredient for sunflower oil, but even their seeds can be used as nut snacks after being fried. They also have a long flowering period, rich honey powder, and the sunflower honey they produce is also top-quality honey.
Even the leaves and flower disks after beating the sunflower seeds are top-grade feed, rich in protein, carbohydrates and crude fiber, and can be used to raise pigs..."
Oil extraction? Snacks? Honey production? Feed?
Father Lin hurriedly adjusted the desk and chair and sat down opposite the two of them, "An An, what do you mean... Comrade Dai can introduce sunflower seeds to us?"
Dai Lihua nodded and said, "Yes, uncle, it is the oil-producing sunflower introduced from the Soviet Union. It is easy to plant and has low cost. Planting in the south has absolute advantages. Would you consider it?"
Father Lin is an old farmer, and after a little thought, he had an idea in his mind.
Especially Lin Anan's affirmative look, which made him come up with a plan instantly, "Is Mu He far from here?"
"It's not far. It takes about two hours by car."
"Is it convenient for me to go and have a look?"
“Convenient, convenient.”
The two of them started communicating, and Lin Anan didn't need to interrupt anymore. She moved the pillow behind her and raised herself up a little.
After chatting for about half an hour, the two hit it off and made an appointment to go to Mu River.
Father Lin was pressed for time, so now that the trip had been made, he couldn't wait to set off.
Lin Anan was satisfied and felt that her father was very sensible and had great business acumen.
Sunflower oil will be the mainstream edible oil in the future, as well as various types of melon seeds, sunflower honey, etc., which are all things that have been tested by the public and are certain to be popular in the future.
Dai Lihua came with a smile and left happily.
As soon as the person left, Lin's father praised him to the sky, and even said that he was lucky to meet a noble person when he went out.
"Sister Lihua took good care of me. She arranged for me to do the nebulization in the health company."
"Then you have to thank them very much."
evening.
Father Lin came over to ask Lin Anan some more questions. After getting the correct answers, he immediately went back to the house and started making a schedule.
Even Lin Anan admires the old man's execution ability.
Chu Mingzhou accompanied Lin Anan for a while and heard about this. "That's right. Many people only think of sunflowers as ornamental flowers and don't know their value."
"Well, oil-producing sunflowers were introduced only a short time ago, so not many people know about them."
"I'll send someone to take Dad there tomorrow."
Lin Anan raised her eyebrows slightly and said jokingly, "Captain Chu, you can't use your military vehicle for personal purposes!"
Chu Mingzhou glanced at her and said seriously, "My father-in-law supports the country's land reclamation and cultivation of new crops. This is glorious and great, and it is also the spirit of hardworking poor peasants. I should support it."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Lin Anan was amused by him and laughed.
"You leaders are different. Once you say something, it becomes a big deal."
Chu Mingzhou glanced towards the door, then quickly moved closer. Without refutating her teasing, he kissed her on the lips several times to silence her laughter.
