After the commotion today, Zhu Daneng failed to persuade his wife and son to come back that night, but he did get a free meal at his father-in-law and mother-in-law's house.
Complete the mission of watching a play at the Zhu family's home, check in with Zhu Daneng, Yang Mei, Zhu Jianguo, Zhu Jiancheng, and Old Lady Zhu... and receive a reward of ten kilograms of rice, ten kilograms of flour, five kilograms of red dates, three kilograms of brown sugar, two kilograms of pork, one kilogram of beef, one old hen, one old duck, a bottle of Maotai, a pack of cigarettes, one kilogram of soybean oil, two bars of soap, and three towels.
There are many people involved in this melon, and the system rewards a lot of things.
Although they are only available in bottles or bags of one pound, you can't buy these things just by having money. You need a ticket, especially Moutai, which is hard to buy even with a ticket and money.
I didn’t go back to Songshan County for the Chinese New Year today. The main reason is that it is not easy to go back and forth, and also, it is usually necessary to spend the first year living in a new house to have a good omen.
After the Lantern Festival, the New Year atmosphere completely disappears.
The people in the city once again rushed to the factories, and the people in the countryside once again rushed to the fields.
There were few spring rains this year, just like last year, and the farmers are worried about this year's harvest.
Lushan Village.
The old village chief got the letter.
He immediately found the team leader, and the two of them got on the ox cart and went to the commune together.
On the way, the old village chief told what he had learned from the letter.
Captain Sun couldn't believe it and asked, "Is it true that wheat can grow in dry land?"
The old village chief nodded his weathered face several times and said, "At first, I didn't believe the letter either. But Jiayu is a child you and I have watched grow up. Her character is impeccable. Besides, she's now a technician at the Agricultural Research Institute. What good will it do her to tell such a lie?"
“This is really…”
Captain Sun couldn't say the rest of the words.
Because he thought of his home.
If it was his own family who married Jiayu, his grandson would not be a peasant like him.
Thinking of Song Xiulan, who has stopped struggling and is living a good life, and her second son, whose temperament is becoming more and more twisted.
Alas, the young couple has been living a difficult life since they got married.
It’s all fate!
The two men came to Dongming Commune and went straight to the office building. They found the director of the commune and without saying anything, they started to play the victim.
Village chief: "Director! Our Lushan Village is poor!"
The team leader said: "Yes, we are poor. If there is no more food, the people in our village will starve to death!"
Director of Dongming Commune: ...I just want to watch you put on a show here!
Village Chief: "Director! As the village chief, we must lead by example and tighten our belts! We can't just watch the villagers suffer!"
The team leader: "We heard that a batch of drought-resistant wheat seeds has arrived—"
Finally understanding the purpose of this play, the director of Dongming Commune waved his hand and said, "You are well-informed. The commune has indeed received a batch of drought-resistant wheat seeds, but we have plans for every village."
The village chief said: "We have a lot of good farmland in Lushan Village. Can't we give more quotas?"
The team leader said: "Yes, although there is no rain, this good land can produce more food."
“…”
The two of them, who had cooperated well with each other for many years, almost confused the commune director with their words.
But the commune director was not a free man, so he asked the two to tell him where they got the letter from.
"You two are truly lucky! No, it's probably because Lushan Village has good feng shui, and it's a place that has nurtured such a talented person. This drought-resistant Dongfeng No. 1 wheat seed comes from the Third Mountain Agricultural Research Institute. This year's first batch is destined for growing crops in areas severely affected by last year's drought."
"Come on, come on in, have a cup of tea with me, and let's talk a little more. Let's see if we can get the talents of Lushan Village to work harder in the research institute and allocate more quotas to our Dongming Commune..."
Village Chief and Captain Sun: ...
Two old foxes met an even more cunning fox.
Oh no, my house was robbed.
…
There are many people like Dongming Commune who work as hard as they do. For the commune and each village, the fields are their roots and food is their life. Last year's drought caused people to starve to death in some places. If it were not for the sweet potatoes distributed by the state, many people would not have been able to survive this winter.
This year there is a new wheat variety that is drought-resistant and insect-resistant. Regardless of whether it is really as its name suggests, they are all willing to believe it.
This is not just to get more wheat seeds. The villagers are looking for the commune, the commune is looking for the county, and the county is looking for the city. Everyone wants to get more quotas.
The Third Mountain Agricultural Research Institute has become very famous recently.
People who wanted to see Dean Lu lined up from the beginning of Tianshui Lane to the end of the street.
Of course, this is a metaphor.
After all, there are not many people who can really reach the level of Dean Lu.
Moreover, all the Dongfeng-1 wheat seeds have been handed over, with only a lot left to be planted on hundreds of acres of land in the research institute. Many others are reserved for research on Dongfeng-2 or other crops that require drought resistance.
In the fields of the Third Mountain Research Institute, Song Jiayu was also loosening the soil with a hoe. Since they started planting crops, more people started to come to the institute. They were all temporary workers of the institute, working ten months a year and resting for two months. They were busy in the fields every day and their monthly salary was about sixteen yuan.
When he sees Song Jiayu, he will call her "Technician Song" angrily.
"Technician Song is here again today."
"She's so strong!"
"That hoe is like a little toy in her hands~"
“…”
At this time, a technician from the same project team, with one foot on the shoe and the other on the ground, ran towards the direction of Song Jiayu's land in a unique posture.
"Xiao Song, we found it, we found it in the greenhouse, let's go take a look!"
This man was filled with excitement, and his expression showed extreme agitation, but the temporary workers in the fields were used to it. Perhaps all agricultural technicians behaved like this. They even saw one rolling around in the paddy field with joy.
Song Jiayu followed with a hoe and entered a greenhouse. The rice inside was grown using Song Jiayu's wood-based ability to replenish growth energy every day.
This batch of rice has just reached the time when it is time to pollinate each other and grow rice grains.
Each rice plant has male and female flowers, which can pollinate themselves and then grow the food people need.
However, there are always one or two special ones in nature.
For example, the rice hybridization research team is looking for mutant male sterile rice. The stamens of this type of rice have degenerated, leaving only pistils, and it cannot self-pollinate. In order to reproduce, it can only hybridize with other rice.
It is a genetic disease of rice that even Song Jiayu's wood-type ability cannot solve.
But this is what the project team's technicians need.
Every time during the rice season, they would take a magnifying glass and look at each rice plant one by one, looking for mutant male sterile rice.
Fortunately, they found it this time.
