Chapter 698 Two Years Later
Minister Lu brought the reporters with him this time. The interview with the fields as the background could better reflect his hands-on approach.
Moreover, since high-yield corn was grown, the reporters would inevitably interview the researchers. The effect would definitely be better if I were to be interviewed together with those great contributors.
The reporters knew how to judge the situation and understood Minister Lu's intentions as early as when he arranged to come to the experimental field.
So he tactfully interviewed Minister Lu first, and then turned the camera lens to Huang Baosen and others.
Huang Baosen was interviewed by reporters again and appeared much calmer than last time.
He still had no intention of taking all the credit. When he talked about his thoughts and experiences, he would occasionally add Shang Ruoting's achievements, so that the reporters interviewed Shang Ruoting again.
There is no doubt that the interviews of several people were once again on the news that could be seen everywhere, so that the names of Shang Ruoting and Huang Baosen became more well-known to the Chinese people.
All the winter wheat harvested this spring has been used for seeds. Although the quantity has not yet reached that required for large-scale planting, preparations for planting have already begun in areas around the capital and parts of Beihe Province.
As long as this batch of winter wheat is successfully planted and there are sufficient wheat seeds next year, they will be popularized in the surrounding areas. By then, the country's grain production will definitely reach an unprecedented new height.
Coupled with the successful trial planting of high-yield corn, it will no longer be a dream for the people in the country to live a life of plenty.
It can only be said that Shang Ruoting's arrival has accelerated the pace of agricultural development in Xia State.
Two years later…
The glass house series decoration that Tan Chen had collaborated with Mr. Feng on in Pengcheng had been completed long ago. He combined the money he earned with the money his wife brought him, and finally raised enough money to build the land.
After careful consideration and many revisions, Tan Chen came up with a satisfactory design for the community, and after more than a year of hard work, he finally completed the construction of his ideal residential community.
The overall layout of the buildings in the community was almost the same as the assignment he gave to Master Ma Jinkun, with only some details changed.
What makes the house stand out is the interior decoration.
In this era, most people live in government-distributed public housing, and some companies provide welfare housing to their employees.
The commercial housing built by Tan Chen is extremely rare.
Although it is rare, it does exist. For example, in Pengcheng and other more developed cities such as Haicheng, foreign investors have been involved in construction.
Take the commercial housing in Shenzhen for example, it is very popular among the public. If someone has spare money and a long-term vision, he or she will definitely buy one, and some people will even buy two or three.
However, the exteriors of the commercial housing that those people had purchased were all made of original red bricks, with the gaps filled with cement, and the windows were also small wooden structures with many grids.
The interior of the house is even simpler, with a grey cement floor and walls painted a uniform white.
Even so, those who bought commercial housing were very satisfied.
However, there is no harm without comparison.
After the residential community built by Tan Chen was completed, he quickly built a simple sales office at the entrance of the community based on the modern concepts brought by Shang Ruoting. A large plaque was hung above the sales office with the words - Tulip City Sales Office.
Yes, the name of the community is Tulip City. The origin of this name is very simple, because the green space of the entire community is full of tulips in addition to lawns.
Without looking at those beautiful buildings, just looking at the green plants in the community makes people feel reluctant to leave.
Let me ask you, who wouldn’t like such a living environment in this era?
A wooden structural diagram of the residential complex is placed in the open space in the center of the sales office.
This was made by Lin Erniu and several carpenters. It was painted with corresponding colors and it is so realistic that it is like a miniature version of the community.
Gao Ming, Chen Xiangyang and Li Xiang took the initiative to take on the work of selling the house.
After being promoted through various channels, tulips began to be sold to the public.
On the day of the sale, Tan Chen invited a group of reporters through his connections. He was very confident that the unique community he built would definitely provide those reporters with a novel topic and their trip would be worthwhile.
Of course, his main purpose is to publicize his community.
On the first day of the property's sale, there were not many people coming. Most of them were connections that Tan Chen, Gao Ming, Chen Xiangyang, and Li Xiang had made while working here for a while. The main purpose of these people coming here was to show their support, and few of them really wanted to buy a house.
Despite this, everyone who visited was still shocked by everything in the community.
