According to the Party School's study plan, this class will end at the end of May.
Sun Zongyuan still attends classes during the day and reviews at night. The days pass by so quickly.
On two occasions, Liu Jun specifically discussed the development of Honghua Township with Sun Zongyuan, with a hint of yearning in his voice. After Sun Zongyuan understood Liu Jun's meaning, he said:
"Teacher Liu, after completing seven months of our training course, we'll have plenty of time besides researching and writing projects. Why don't we go to Honghua Yuanda Group for some practical experience during the two or three months of summer vacation?"
Liu Jun thought about it and agreed immediately.
Yes, try practicing first to get a feel for it. If it’s not the kind of life you like, you can always come back to teach!
The school training made Sun Zongyuan feel the necessity of political study again. When he studied some viewpoints and theories in his previous life, he only mentioned them briefly on half a page. Now he sees that they all involve fundamental issues of China's development. Fortunately, the organization has extraordinary ability to correct mistakes, so that China's development path always stays on the right track.
On the morning of May 28, at the closing ceremony of the spring class of the Ganhe District Party School, District Commissioner Sun Peiqing was invited to give a five-year development plan for the Ganhe District, followed by speeches by outstanding student representatives.
Sun Zongyuan, representing the Young Cadres Team, took the stage and said:
No regrets in youth, be a firm... Party member
Not only should we share the worries of the organization and solve the problems of the masses in our actions, but we should also maintain a high degree of ideological consistency with the organization, unswervingly follow the principles and policies of reform and opening up, and achieve the great victory of reform and opening up!

Students from each class took photos with regional leaders and Party School faculty and staff!
On the eve of graduation, Wang Xiangyang and Sun Zongyuan had an in-depth exchange in a corridor on campus.
Sun Zongyuan learned about Wang Xiangyang's development plan:
Wang Xiangyang graduated from the Philosophy Department of Shandong University and was assigned to the regional administrative office. A year later, he joined the Organization Department and became a deputy section chief two years later. After graduating from the Party School, the organization will transfer him to a remote township as secretary. As for his future work, Wang Xiangyang hopes that Sun Zongyuan can lend a helping hand, diagnose the economic and social development of the township, and find a path that best suits the actual development of the local area.
Sun Zongyuan also hoped to make more capable and promising friends, so of course he would grab the olive branch extended by Wang Xiangyang. It was just a suggestion, wasn't it? It wouldn't take much effort.
Besides, they were classmates after all, and they were the top two leaders in the class. They worked well together in class management, so he agreed without hesitation and said to Wang Xiangyang:
"You're about to become the secretary, and even the youngest in the entire region. Your future is unstoppable. I hope you can help me when the time comes!"
He pretended to be very serious and bowed to Wang Xiangyang!
After resting for two days at home, I returned to Honghua Township and resumed my regular work.
Even in June, the people are still very busy with summer harvest, summer planting, and summer management. Even if one person were to break three pieces of grass, it wouldn't be enough. So at this time, all levels of government should try to avoid disturbing the people in the countryside. No matter how urgent the work, is it more important than the people's harvest? Of all things, food is the most important. If you delay the farming season, your superiors will be held accountable.
These days, many cadres have nothing to do in the countryside, so they come to work just to make their presence felt. After a short walk, they go home to help their parents, wives, brothers, and other children prepare for the summer harvest.
The same is true for Sun Zongyuan. In the past few days, his whole family came to Fushan Farm to help harvest potatoes.
The potatoes on the farm attracted many visitors:
The fruit is large, round and has a good shape. It tastes very good when fried, boiled or stewed. It also produces a lot of starch. The vermicelli made is whiter and tastes better than that made from sweet potatoes. Most importantly, it does not break. Therefore, people come to see the rarity of the potatoes, and more people come to buy potatoes for seedlings.
Sun Zongyuan knew that if these potato seeds were planted again, the variety would degenerate, so he distributed leaflets to explain this to everyone. However, those who came to buy potato seeds said:
"Village Chief Sun, we know that varieties can deteriorate. Planting them again won't yield the same quality and yield as you have now, but they're still much better than the potato seeds sold at the Agricultural Technology Station. Could it be that the farm doesn't want to sell them to us?"
Sun Zongyuan thought that what the other person said made sense. The average yield per mu was more than 7,000 jin, and at 0.20 yuan per jin, it would be more than 1,400 yuan.
Even if the yield per mu of the potatoes they buy is 5,000 jin, it is much better than the ordinary potato seeds that yield less than 3,000 jin per mu.
Just buy it. I’ve made it clear. The responsibility is not mine anyway. Besides, I’m selling potatoes, not potato seeds.
Who in the countryside is idle these days? Aren't they all busy harvesting wheat and planting corn?
There was no other way, so Sun Zongyuan found 100 laid-off workers from the city and paid each of them 5 yuan a day for digging up an acre of potatoes. My grandfather led six old men to supervise the work every day, and my mother also brought all the female members of the family to help sell potatoes.
Dad, Sun Zongyuan, Zongda and my second uncle Sun Shilin also ran to the fields to dig potatoes.
A while ago, Grandpa placed potato orders for some county heads. Sun Zongyuan arranged for priority supply, secretly offering a 10% discount on the price and 10% more on the quantity. After the cadres who came to buy potatoes reported back to the county heads:
"This Sun Zongyuan is a very good person!"
There are more than 5,000 acres of potatoes, and they can be piled into a mountain if they are planted.
In addition to the potatoes bought in Ganhe area, Sun Zongyu also kept some for seeds, hoping to compare the yield and quality of autumn planting with those provided by the Agricultural College. The rest were put into the wholesale market by my mother. As a result, 30 million kilograms of potatoes were sold out in less than a week, and the price was surprisingly good. Except for the first day's trial price of 0.15 yuan per kilogram, it rose to 0.18 yuan on the second day and 0.20 yuan on the third day. In order to cultivate the market, I fixed this price.
This price is slightly higher than the market price. Older readers may remember that in 1987, the price of potatoes in Beijing and Shanghai was only 0.19 yuan per catty. Yes, that was the retail price.
Nowadays, potatoes go through the wholesale market and are estimated to cost 0.25 yuan per pound before reaching consumers, because of the profits of middlemen such as logistics and wholesalers.
Why is it selling so well even though the price is so high?
According to Shao Shifang's market research, the conclusion is:
They are large, uniform, good-looking, nutritious, and taste much better than ordinary potatoes.
The price is a little higher, but the quality is good!
There is no good product at a low price, right?
During this potato planting and sales, some people have summarized three experiences:
It's better to grow high-quality potatoes than simply growing grain. A single crop of grain yields 700 to 800 kilograms, which only earns about 200 yuan. Potatoes, on the other hand, can yield over 1,000 yuan. Earning more money is key to success!
Therefore, some people with ambitions tried to grow vegetables, such as green onions, onions, cucumbers, etc. In the past, the sales were limited to local sales on a small scale and the prices could not be raised. Now there is the Fushan Wholesale Market, and large quantities can be wholesaled. No one is worried that your production is not large enough.
Inspired by this, my mother expanded a 120-acre agricultural product wholesale market. Unexpectedly, even after paying the full stall fee, she still couldn't grab the stalls:
Vegetable area, dried vegetable area, staple food area, miscellaneous grain area, cooking oil area, sauce area, etc.
Whether it is wholesale agricultural products or bulk commodities, freight trucks are loaded with goods coming in and out every day.
