As a result, after the higher-ups learned about this, they sent a deputy director of the Agriculture Bureau and Quan Wei to the black market to investigate the matter.
Upon hearing this, Director Zhu frowned slightly. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "This is indeed strange. If mushrooms can really be artificially cultivated, it would undoubtedly be an incredible skill in these famine years."
"Director Zhu, what should we do now?" Quan Wei asked.
"After that man finishes selling the mushrooms, we'll talk to him." Director Zhu said after thinking for a moment.
"Director Zhu, if we ask so directly, the other party might be afraid that we are catching speculators and profiteers, and they will just run away. They are also worried that if we learn the skills of growing mushrooms, it will affect their family's income.
I'm afraid we won't get anything out of asking like this." Quan Wei glanced at Director Zhu cautiously.
Quan Wei obviously has a better understanding of the ideas of leaders and the thoughts of grassroots people.
Anything that can bring livelihood and make money is likely to be closely guarded and not easily shown to others.
Director Zhu nodded when he heard this. He had indeed not considered this.
"You're right, Quanwei. Then in your opinion, what should we do?" Director Zhu asked humbly.
"Bribery, bribery, and more bribery. If you are assured, I will take care of it later." Quan Wei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Director Zhu was listening to him.
"Okay! I'll leave it to you."
........。
Zhang Wenfu, who was selling mushrooms today, always felt something was wrong, as if something was staring at him. He looked around but didn't see any suspicious people.
This feeling made him feel uneasy, and selling mushrooms to make money lost its former appeal.
Seeing that he had almost sold out, Zhang Wenmin closed his stall and no longer stayed in the black market.
Zhang Wenfu hurriedly packed up the mushrooms, and every step seemed more hurried and uneasy than usual.
"Big brother in front, please wait a moment!" Quan Wei saw Zhang Wenfu packing up his stall and going back. After he saw that he was far away from the black market, he immediately called out to Zhang Wenfu in front of him.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Wenfu felt a little nervous today. When he heard someone calling him, he turned around and saw two well-dressed men walking towards him quickly. He couldn't help but feel more nervous and asked warily.
Zhang Wenfu saw that these two people looked like neither ordinary people nor from the nearby production brigade. They were dressed smartly and had a calm temperament. It was obvious that they were not ordinary people.
“Hello, we are all from the Agricultural Bureau, and this is the director of our Agricultural Bureau.
Our Agricultural Bureau would like to invite you to be an agricultural consultant. The salary is 30 yuan a month, and you can eat lunch in the cafeteria, which provides 300 grams of rice and 500 grams of vegetables.
Here are our IDs, you can take a look at them." Quan Wei handed Zhang Wenfu their IDs as soon as he came up.
"You want me to be a consultant in your Agricultural Bureau? And you're offering me thirty yuan a month. Where in the world can such a good thing happen? Who are you trying to fool?" Zhang Wenfu took a look at the documents Quan Wei handed over.
The stamp on the certificate is clear, and the photo matches the two people in front of him, so it doesn't look forged.
But he still had doubts in his heart. After all, such a sudden good thing was really hard to believe, but what if there was still a glimmer of luck?
"We noticed your mushrooms in the market, they are of excellent quality. Our Agricultural Bureau is promoting advanced cultivation techniques, and we hope to have experienced farmers like you join us to contribute to improving agricultural production." At this time, Director Zhu spoke.
"Yes, big brother, the mushrooms you sell are well-known in the black market. Our director has noticed it and has come to invite you to be a consultant in our Agricultural Bureau." Quan Wei also echoed, his eyes full of sincerity.
"What mushrooms? I don't know what you are talking about." When Zhang Wenfu heard the word mushroom, he knew that the two people in front of him were coming for their mushrooms. Zhang Wenfu immediately became angry and turned away.
"Hey, big brother, we sincerely invite you to work as a consultant in our Agricultural Bureau. This is not a temporary job, you can sign a contract.
In those days, there was no technology to grow mushrooms. Once you master scientific cultivation technology, agricultural development will make great strides. It will not only allow your professional skills to be fully utilized, but also provide a huge boost to agriculture, allowing people across the country to eat mushrooms every season, and maybe even export them.
By then, it will not only be personal honor, but also collective honor and national honor.
"What's more, our Agricultural Bureau can also purchase the mushrooms you grow yourself. We can then say that your mushrooms are a cultivation base. It won't matter if others find out." Quan Wei stopped Zhang Wenfu with an extremely sincere attitude.
"My dear, you can go back and discuss this with your family.
After you have reached a good conclusion, you can come to our Agricultural Bureau to see us at any time.
Quanwei, let's go." Seeing that Zhang Wenfu was still hesitant, Director Zhu stopped pushing him, leaving him some room to think.
Zhang Wenfu looked at the two people's backs as they left, feeling mixed emotions.
He was indeed proud of the mushrooms that his family could grow. Over the past few months, his family had only regarded this as a means of livelihood and had never imagined that their mushroom growing skills would be valued by the Agriculture Bureau.
He began to think seriously about what Quan Wei and Director Zhu said. If the technology of growing mushrooms could really be promoted, it would not only benefit his family, but also contribute to the agricultural development of the entire country. Isn't this something to be proud of?
"Director Zhu, do you think they will agree to serve as consultants to our Agricultural Bureau? Will they hand over the technology of growing mushrooms?" Quan Wei said as he walked.
“As long as someone in their family understands the pros and cons, they will definitely agree.
Now we just have to wait a few days to see the results." Director Zhu looked confident and walked forward with steady steps.
Quan Wei nodded when he heard this, but he still felt a little uneasy.
If this technology can be widely used, it will have an immeasurable impact on improving agricultural production efficiency and increasing farmers' income.
However, he also understood Zhang Wenfu's hesitation. These days, if there is any good thing, everyone will hide it and will not show it to others easily. There will always be many concerns.
After Zhang Wenfu returned home, he thought about this matter all day and felt exhausted. After dinner, he immediately said, "Mingduo, take Mingxia inside first. I want to talk to your grandma and aunt about something."
"Second brother, I saw you were absent-minded when you were having dinner today. Did something happen?" Zhang Qiurui looked at her second brother and asked.
