Chapter 066 History is always written by the victor
Then I heard a man's voice: "Look at yours too. Let's go check on Deputy Director Su first! There's been an infestation of carrion beetles lately, and the higher-ups haven't allocated any pesticides. It looks like we have to figure out a solution on our own."
A tall man in his thirties walked in first, followed by the pot-bellied Officer Liu. Jingshu knew this man. He was the Officer Liu who had followed Yu Cai Ni to bargain for the house when she was selling it.
"Deputy Director Su, we will be submitting the test products for the competition tomorrow. How is it going? Is there anything else you need? By the way, who is this...?" The man first shook hands with Jing's mother with a smile, then looked at Jing Shu and asked.
"This is my daughter Jingshu. She brought her frog today to help eat the bugs." Jingshu's mother introduced her to her. "This is our Director Zhu," she said. "Once the location of the artificial sun is decided, he will become the director."
However, he completely ignored the bald clerk Liu behind him. Clerk Liu rolled his eyes in disdain despite his big belly.
"Hello, Director Zhu." Jingshu smiled harmlessly.
"Hello, hello, are you used to being here?" Zhu Moo looks very young and friendly. He is a man with high emotional intelligence. Generally, politicians who are successful in their careers are absolutely friendly to the families of their subordinates.
Seeing Jingshu's bracelet and the frogs eating insects, Director Zhu's interest was piqued. "Jingshu, your method is great. The Ministry of Agriculture also wants to use this method to control carrion beetles. Unfortunately, many frogs are dying now. Plus, it's not the breeding season now, so it's difficult to breed them in large quantities."
He then asked some more questions, and when he learned that Jingshu had bred a batch of tadpoles, Zhu Moo's eyes lit up.
"Director Zhu, I'll give this one to you to take home and raise. See if my idea is feasible. If every family raises a frog that eats insects, can we reduce the number of insects in the home?" Jingshu handed over the male frog that had been raised in the space for two days.
Officer Liu shook his legs and rolled his eyes in disdain, "Giving a frog as a gift is too cheap..."
Zhu Moo kept saying he was sorry, but unfortunately the fat boy who was eavesdropping behind the door rushed in. He first looked at his father pitifully and said, "Dad, my mom said she's had enough of those bugs, and if she can't think of a solution, she's going to..." Make you kneel down 3.8 kilograms.
While his father was dazed under the shadow of being ruled, he took the rope and said, "Thank you, sister." The naughty kid knew how to make a feint to the east and attack in the west.
Director Zhu had no choice but to give up and thanked Jingshu very embarrassedly, as if he had accepted a very valuable gift. This gave Jingshu the impression that he valued the gift very much and was very grateful for it.
“It would be unfair if such a wise man didn’t climb up the ladder quickly.” No wonder he became a director in his thirties and continued to soar after the apocalypse.
After seeing the test products Jing's mother had been raising these days, he was surprised. "It seems that artificially grown vegetables really have their own unique features. Your oyster mushrooms are particularly good."
The group then visited Yu Caini's experimental vegetable garden. Director Zhu raised several questions: "Does excessive use of pesticides have health risks? Does the catalyst meet international usage standards, or does it exceed them? Are there any adverse reactions to these genetically modified crops?"
The question left everyone speechless, but Officer Liu said, "We don't have any food left now, so why should we care about so many things? The higher-ups have relaxed their policies and we just need to increase production."
Director Zhu nodded and said, "Then please note the dosage and let the higher-ups make the decision."
…
The next day was the day for the competition for experimental products grown in the thirteen districts. At 4 a.m., after Jingshu's family had breakfast, they went with Jingshu's mother to get the samples prepared yesterday. Unexpectedly, as soon as they opened the old warehouse, countless flying insects swarmed out.
"It's the queen of the carrion beetle!" Jingshu zipped up her one-piece suit and turned around to zip up her mother's as well. Jing's father used a stick to drive away the flying insects that were flying towards them.
Without caring about anything else, Jing's mother turned on the light and was shocked by the tragic scene inside: there were dense piles of carrion larvae wriggling in different places, biting all the vegetables in the warehouse into pieces. The results of her hard work for several days were now all wasted.
With a "dong", Jing's mother knelt on the ground, scaring away countless corpse queens. "It's her, it's Yu Cai Ni! It must be her!"
They deliberately put these bugs in my warehouse!" Jing's mother screamed, extremely unwilling.
"This can be considered as a lesson for my naive mother about the wickedness of human nature." Jing Shu thought about calling Director Zhu. After a while, he hurried over and was shocked when he saw the situation in front of him.
"All the carrion worms were eaten by frogs yesterday. Lao Chen and I carefully checked every inch of the place before leaving and closing the door. It's impossible for it to develop like this in just one night, right?" Jing's mother murmured with unfocused eyes.
Director Zhu called Yu Cai Ni over. Yu Cai Ni and the other two spoke arrogantly, "What evidence do you have to accuse me of putting the bugs in there? Huh? Don't be so slanderous. After all, the competition is all about results. I can't give you another ten days or half a month to grow a sample, unless you can come up with a new sample."
Yu Cai Ni snorted twice, very satisfied with Su Lanzhi's decadent look. She then said to Zhu Moo, "Director Zhu, when you go there, we must also cooperate well. If there is any need for a professor-level researcher, please let me know. I believe that integrating our resources can maximize the benefits."
Jingshu raised her eyebrows. Yu Caini really had some background. No wonder she was able to rise to prominence with Zhu Moo in her previous life. But in this life, she might be brought down by her.
"Okay, I'm going to participate in the competition. By the way, Deputy Director Su, after the competition, I hope you can bring money to exchange for your shabby house, otherwise you won't be able to be the deputy director for long." Yu Cai Ni changed into a neat OL outfit today, got a few bottles of water from that dead man, washed her hair and face, put on light makeup, and felt very awesome.
"Of course, if I change it, I can force you to work for another month." Yu Cai Ni thought quietly in her heart.
Seeing that the show was over, Jingshu came out to collect it. "Mom, did you forget that there is still a sample at home that we took back yesterday? Let's go and get it quickly."
It took Jing's mother a long time to react, "Oh, yes, thank goodness I still have one copy left."
"Then go quickly. Don't worry, if you can win this time, I will definitely help you get justice." Zhu Moo's meaning was very simple. Otherwise, if you can't win, there is nothing he can do, because history has always been written by the victor.
Jingshu and her family hurried home again. Of course, the samples were gone. Some of them were grown by themselves, and it was a bit troublesome to put them back into the sample box. However, there was enough time. In order to win safely, Jingshu kept adding diluted Lingquan to garlic sprouts and oyster mushrooms, believing that they would grow even more when they arrived at the destination.
