Chapter 105: Action is worse than intention
The professor was moved when he heard Lu Xiang's words.
In addition, the situation here is that the crops we grow are often stolen. The amount is too small, so calling the police is useless. It seems that once the thieves know about it, they will steal more.
That’s why I want to move the Agricultural College to another place.
We were almost done with the deal, but then something got in the way, and there were some historical issues left over. In the end, we had to call it quits.
Now Lu Xiang brought the plan, including some letters of recommendation and policy preferences, and the old professors and deans present were very excited.
The dean was still a little reserved and said to Lu Xiang, "Go back first and I'll think about it. I'll give you an answer later."
Lu Xiang nodded. She thought it was only right to consider such a major matter. Then she said to them, "Okay, I'll just hang around here for a bit and catch the bus back to the village tonight. If you have any ideas, feel free to tell me!"
Everyone looked at Lu Xiang with some surprise. Although she was young, she had an indescribable aura. She was quite attractive!
The professor said to Lu Xiang, "Excuse me, what is your identity?"
Lu Xiang immediately said politely: "I am an advanced individual in our village and a women's cadre!" This kind of identity is still very intimidating outside.
It really won’t work without this, after all, Lu Xiang looks too young.
The professor was deeply impressed. This young cadre was definitely quite capable. No wonder her demeanor was so unique.
The professor promised to seriously consider it, and Lu Xiang planned to take a walk around the area.
As soon as she left, her colleagues, including the professor, became anxious.
He said to the dean: "Let's leave here as soon as possible. It's impossible to do research work here in a stable manner." Every time they were in danger of being robbed, they also had some conflicts with the local residents. Now they suspected someone of stealing their axes.
They were full of suspicion about everyone, but now there was an opportunity for them to develop abroad. What a great thing!
The dean asked, "Does everyone think it's okay to leave?" The dean also wanted to go, but as the dean, he still wanted to consider various aspects.
The comrades around him were all very anxious: "What are you still thinking about? This situation is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
They were afraid that after Lu Xiang left, the policy would change again, and they would be put in a passive position.
In the final analysis, they just want to leave.
Upon hearing this, the dean made up his mind: "Okay, then we'll go out and investigate again. If it's really possible, we'll move the research base."
The Agricultural College address would remain, and all farm work would be transferred to Dayu Village. They quickly reached a consensus!
Lu Xiang walked around and found that there was nothing delicious to eat on the street.
Everyone was in a hurry, all dressed in black, blue, and gray. Even the woman with the red armband would look at her a little longer, looking serious and asking what she was doing there.
The sales clerks at the supply and marketing cooperative and the store were not as enthusiastic as those there. Lu Xiang didn't buy anything and just took a quick look around before going back.
I am back at the Agricultural College and want to say goodbye to all the professors.
I was in such a hurry this time that I didn't bring anything for the old professors. I just saw some mung bean cakes on the roadside. They're pretty good! Not as delicate as Lu Xiang's own, but still okay. Lu Xiang brought two pounds for the old professor, so they can share.
The old professor was unusually enthusiastic when he saw her this time: "You are too polite, little girl. You are wasting money for no reason." His attitude became much closer. He said, "We have already studied it. We can go to your place to investigate!"
Lu Xiang was very surprised: "Really?" I thought they would take a long time to think about it, but unexpectedly they went right away! Then she said enthusiastically: "Everyone is welcome to come. So when do you plan to go? I can make arrangements."
The old dean was also a man of action. Having agreed, he said, "No need to prepare. We're here to study, not to enjoy ourselves. So, today is the day to go." He brought two professors with him, forming a small team of three. They planned to investigate the soil and water conditions there and the size of the base.
To get back, I had to change buses several times, first from this county town to Luxiang County, and then take another bus back to the village. The journey took at least three hours.
There weren't many people on the bus at night. They all found seats and started chatting.
Although Lu Xiang did not understand agronomy, she had the thinking mode of later generations. She talked about some methods of controlling the temperature, dryness and humidity by covering the greenhouse, which amazed several old professors. They once wanted to recruit her as a student of the Agricultural College.
After reversing three times, we finally returned to the village. It was already completely dark.
The village chief was still waiting for Lu Xiang at the village entrance.
He was just worried that Lu Xiang was a lesbian after all, and he regretted letting her go out alone. He should have let the director of the women's department go with her.
Finally, I saw Lu Xiang coming back from afar, and she brought some old comrades with her.
The village chief said to Lu Xiang, "How is it?"
Lu Xiang said, "These professors are from the Agricultural College. They plan to come here to conduct research. The county has said they can allocate funds!"
The village chief was shocked when he heard this. He didn't expect Lu Xiang to be able to exceed the task.
This was a very difficult task. She not only dealt with the county leaders, but also brought the professor over.
Suddenly, he felt a little more respect for these plain-looking old men, and the village chief immediately invited them: "Dear old gentlemen, it's getting late, you can stay at my house today!" The village chief's house was the most magnificent.
Although several old professors were anxious, they also knew that it was not convenient at this time, so they said politely: "Excuse me!"
The village chief immediately smiled and said, "Don't bother me. Your presence is a real blessing to our village." The village had never hosted a professor before! Farmers naturally have a soft spot for scholars.
The news spread throughout Dayu Village.
Lu Xiang actually brought the professor back, and the village chief personally entertained them.
Many people were impressed by Lu Xiang. Many people thought Lu Xiang was too young before, but she was able to entertain professors.
When Lu Xiang returned home, the Fu family had already prepared dinner.
Fu Qinhui had also returned a long time ago. Seeing him coming, he whispered, "Is our official back?"
Then he secretly gave her a piece of Sika Deer Toffee.
Lu Xiang's cheeks felt slightly hot.
Lu Xiang took a quick bite of the food that the Fu family had left for her and quickly returned to her room to rest.
The next day, Lu Xiang finished her housework and went out to check. The three professors got up early and went to the fields to see that the crops were growing well.
The village chief then told the professor about Lu Xiang's method of burning dung. The professor felt even more regretful when he heard this and said to Lu Xiang, "Are you really not considering studying agronomy?" She was a genius!
Lu Xiang politely refused again.
Fortunately, the professors didn’t worry too much.
