Chapter 547: Feng Shaochen, Head of Area A
When Han Ying and Lu Yuan first took over the farm, the base was still being reclaimed.
This time, because they wanted to grow mutant rice, the base expanded again.
I heard from Gu Yuanping that the wasteland reclaimed this time is several hundred acres.
And because of this land reclamation, we also came into conflict with the Hope Base next door.
Because Hope Base is also eyeing this area.
It’s just that the Hope Base has a low foundation and dares not challenge Penglai Base in any aspect.
What's more, there is no nutrient solution at the Hope Base, so the grain harvest time is half as slow as that at the Penglai Base.
If it takes a long time to harvest grain, there will definitely not be enough to eat.
So they need to buy some food from Penglai Base from time to time.
Although the Penglai Base has produced more and more grain this year, it still has to tighten its belt, so it can only set aside a small portion to sell to the Hope Base.
Just this small part can help Hope Base to feed a lot of people, so Hope Base dare not challenge Penglai Base.
The last piece of land was occupied by Penglai Base 70%, while Hope Base only occupied 30%.
Now the land is all in place, only the seedlings are missing.
Lu Yuan calculated the small sprouts to be planted on the 50 acres of land in the space, and the rest will all be planted on that land tomorrow.
The two of them were busy in the space for three or four hours before they had some midnight snack and went to sleep.
At 4 a.m. the next day, the alarm clock Han Ying set rang.
We agreed yesterday to go to the hot spring early in the morning to see if we could collect some hot spring water to take home for a bath.
I went into the space to wash up and have breakfast before coming out.
When going out, don't forget the snow on the roof.
The two of them went upstairs to clear away the snow that had accumulated on the color steel shed, and then went downstairs.
After opening the gate, Lu Yuan drove the RV out. Han Ying also got in the car after closing the gate.
Xiaolei Village is not far from Hongmei Village, only about ten minutes away.
Of course, this is the normal speed.
At this point, the snow shovelers haven't come out yet, so the RV has to move through the thick snow.
There was almost no one outside at this time. They found a place to park the car, put the car into the space, and then headed towards the hot spring.
Lu Yuan only knew the general direction yesterday, but he was not sure where it was exactly.
The two of them walked in the direction of those people yesterday.
It was quiet along the way, with almost no sound except the sound of their feet sinking into the snow.
Wearing goggles, all I could see was white.
The hot springs are actually very easy to find, they are wherever there is no snow.
It is indeed easy to find, just below the mountainside.
There were several rooms divided into wooden boards so that snow would not fall when taking a bath in them.
Han Ying observed that the water output of this hot spring was quite large.
The two large pools were divided into four small rooms using wooden boards.
Each single room can accommodate about five or six people taking a bath at the same time. I don’t know who built them. Although the layout is simple, it is very practical.
I first checked the hot spring water, which was crystal clear.
After a night, the hot spring water that people had soaked in yesterday had long since flowed away.
Han Ying put her hand into the hot spring pool, and instantly the water level in the pool dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, Han Ying drained the hot spring water in one pool and switched to another pool.
"This spring is very big."
After Han Ying finished cleaning the first pool, Lu Yuan stood by and watched the water flow from the spring.
He found that the water output of this spring was at least 10 tons per hour.
No one would come to take a bath so early, so after they left, the water in the hot spring pool would quickly fill up again.
After collecting all the hot spring water from the two pools, they returned the same way.
"We collected about 50 tons, which is not bad. We can go to the hot springs when we get home in the evening."
Han Ying happily shared her findings with Lu Yuan who was driving.
50 tons, enough for two people to soak in the hot spring dozens of times.
Of course, Han Ying doesn't plan to just take this one trip. She will continue tomorrow morning since she has nothing to do anyway.
Of course we can't miss out on good things.
After collecting the hot spring water, the two went straight to the farm.
It was just past five when they got back to the farm, and it was still early to start work, so the two of them simply went back to the igloo to take a nap.
The day after tomorrow is New Year’s Eve, but the farm is not closed on that day.
Everyone is happiest when they don't have a holiday, because being able to go to work means getting paid.
But Han Ying spoke yesterday.
If we can harvest all the crops in the fields today, turn the soil over and plant them again, then tomorrow, New Year's Eve, and the first and second days of the first lunar month will all be given three days of paid leave.
Not only that, the farm also gives everyone a year-end benefit.
There are more than 3,000 people in the entire farm, ranch and tofu workshop. With so many people, the year-end benefits are bound to not be very good.
Each person gets two kilograms of old rice and five kilograms of potatoes or sweet potatoes.
As for the meat, there is nothing we can do about it.
After all, everyone knows how many livestock are raised on the ranch.
When they heard that they could also distribute old rice, everyone cheered.
Old rice is also known as rice, which is a precious food in today's doomsday and most people cannot afford it.
Motivated by the promise of year-end bonuses and paid vacations, many people arrive at the farm at eight o'clock.
You should know that the farm usually starts work at 9 o'clock.
The weather is too cold, and everyone wants to stay warm on the kang or in the quilt for a while before going out.
So when it comes to work at 9 o'clock, everyone basically arrives on time.
But I didn't expect so many people to come here at 8 o'clock today.
After coming over and punching in, these people went to the fields to harvest grain on their own initiative.
The sweet potato field to be harvested today is in Area A. The current person in charge of Area A is Feng Shaochen.
When she first took over the farm, Han Ying organized a harvesting competition, and Feng Shaochen's team won first place.
Out of curiosity, Han Ying called the soldier guarding the land to inquire about the situation, and finally found out that Feng Shaochen did have some abilities.
So Han Ying appointed Feng Shaochen as the team leader of Area A, responsible for managing 50 acres of land.
Area A has 250 acres of land and has a total of 5 team leaders.
The person in charge of Area A was Yang Yangrong, who was related to the banker by marriage. He was fired by Lu Yuan on the first day.
Therefore, the position of person in charge of area A has remained vacant.
Han Ying intended to promote one of the team leaders, but she was not clear about their abilities.
So Feng Shaochen was appointed as one of the team leaders.
As for the person in charge of Area A, he was temporarily replaced by the deputy owner Li Ping during that period of time.
After observing for four or five months, Han Ying and Lu Yuan were fully aware of the abilities of all the team leaders.
It was finally decided that Feng Shaochen would be the person in charge of Area A, that is, the district mayor of Area A.
