After breakfast, Zhou Ziwen heard the village broadcast and came to the production team with the Chen sisters, bringing the layout map.
The threshing ground seems very lively today.
Because today is the last day of spring plowing, everyone will feel much more relaxed after we finish today.
"Comrades, I have good news for you. This morning, the leaders of the commune will come to inspect our work."
"This time we came here mainly to build our mushroom cultivation base."
"After today, our construction work will also begin, so everyone can't relax yet..."
…
When the members of the production team heard that the commune’s leading cadres were coming, they were very happy.
Because Secretary Wu said that the commune’s leading cadres came here to build a mushroom cultivation base.
As for the fact that building a mushroom cultivation base will be hard work, they don't care.
We are all men of steel, so why should we be afraid of hardship?
Life is a little hard now, but once the mushroom cultivation base is built, their lives will get better.
As long as you have hope in your heart, no matter how hard or tired you are, your heart will be sweet.
After the morning meeting, Zhou Ziwen was kept behind.
"Ziwen, the production teams just sent a letter saying that people will be arriving soon. Please wait a moment. We will pick them up later."
Wu Dagang spoke.
"Uncle Wu, how do these people who come here to study usually eat? Do they go home after work?"
Zhou Ziwen asked.
"As for lunch, they will bring it themselves. We can just find a stove and heat it up and eat it."
"As for the issue of going back, those who live closer will be able to go back on their own. Those who live farther away probably won't be able to go back. But that's okay. We'll just ask them to pay some money and give them two rooms."
Wu Dagang lit his pipe and began to speak.
"Oh well."
Zhou Ziwen stopped there.
If he continued talking, this matter might fall on his head.
Since Uncle Wu already has an idea, he won't say any more.
"When will the commune's leading cadres arrive?"
Zhou Ziwen changed the subject and asked another question.
"It should be soon. Maybe it's already on the way."
Wu Dagang took two puffs of his pipe and spoke calmly.
"I've finished the layout of the mushroom cultivation base. Uncle Wu, would you like to take a look?"
Although it was a question, Zhou Ziwen still handed over the drawings in his hand.
"Oh, sure, you've got it done so quickly."
Wu Dagang praised and quickly stood up to take the layout plan.
The picture drawn by Zhou Ziwen is not difficult to understand. It vividly depicts the uses of various locations in the mushroom cultivation base. Even an ordinary person who doesn't know how to read pictures can understand it.
Wu Dagang looked very carefully and attentively.
Although Zhou Ziwen had discussed it with them before, it was just talk after all, and no one had a concrete idea of what he was talking about.
But now that this layout is out, the entire mushroom cultivation base is clear at a glance.
Although he had not seen the spacious and impressive layout with his own eyes, he could already imagine how beautiful the mushroom cultivation base would be once it was completed.
"Well, this is a beautiful arrangement, even more beautiful than I imagined."
After watching for a while, Wu Dagang applauded loudly.
As he spoke, his eyes did not leave the drawings.
"Old Wu, what's going on? I can hear your voice from way out there."
At this time, the captain's voice came from outside.
"Haha, I'm talking about the layout plan Ziwen drew! Come and take a look, it's so beautiful. Once our mushroom cultivation base is completed, it will definitely be the envy of other production teams."
Wu Dagang laughed loudly.
"Oh? Let me see."
After the captain came in, he walked a few steps to Wu Dagang, took the layout map and started to look at it.
The captain was also fascinated by this.
"Is this our mushroom cultivation base?"
After a long time, the captain came back to his senses, his face full of excitement.
"Look, there are five mushroom cultivation rooms here, each one is half the size of a threshing ground. If all of them were planted with mushrooms, how many kilograms would they produce?"
Wu Dagang also echoed excitedly.
"How many kilograms does that weigh?" The team leader had the same question.
So the two of them looked at Zhou Ziwen, hoping he could give an answer.
The layout diagram was drawn by Zhou Ziwen, and of course Zhou Ziwen knew the output of the mushroom cultivation base.
"I drew this layout based on an area ten times the size of the mushroom house. At the beginning, the yield certainly won't be that high. My plan is to produce 200,000 kilograms."
Zhou Ziwen gave a number.
"Two hundred thousand?"
“Can you really grow so much?”
Hearing this, Wu Dagang and the team leader became excited.
"This is just the minimum output. If it operates at full capacity, the output can be doubled."
Zhou Ziwen smiled faintly.
"Four hundred thousand?"
The captain exclaimed.
"Four hundred thousand is too much. I don't think even the commune can afford it." Zhou Ziwen explained.
"What should we do then?" the captain asked with heartache.
"I think, to be on the safe side, we should plant 200,000 kilograms first to test the commune's capabilities."
Zhou Ziwen thought for a moment and then spoke.
How much mushrooms the commune can eat is not something that can be said with just words.
The storage time of fresh mushrooms is not long. If stored well, it can only be about half a month.
"I think it's okay. It's better to be safe than sorry. What if the commune can't eat so much? Then all our efforts will be in vain."
Wu Dagang nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's do this for now!"
The captain also nodded in agreement.
"By the way, Lao Zhou, are you done with your work?"
Wu Dagang took out his pipe and filled it with tobacco.
"Oh no! People from other production teams are still waiting outside. Look at me! I've been so busy that I've forgotten everything."
The captain slapped his forehead and said with some regret.
"Have people from other production teams arrived?"
Zhou Ziwen asked in surprise.
"Yeah, it's outside. Don't talk about it for now. Let's talk about it outside."
The team leader hurriedly stood up and stopped packing Wu Dagang's tobacco leaves.
"It's because of this."
Following behind the captain and Wu Dagang, Zhou Ziwen smiled bitterly.
It is obvious that the reason for this misunderstanding is probably that the captain dislikes them from the bottom of his heart.
If you really value them, you won’t forget about them in your busy life.
A group of people were standing together in the threshing ground outside the production team. A rough count showed that there were about twenty or thirty of them.
These people gathered in groups of three or five, some with anticipation on their faces, and some with impatience.
They are here to learn, not to be bullied.
They all came, but no one cared about them, and some of them looked unhappy.
They were all carefully selected from each production team.
In the village, he is also a cultured intellectual.
Young people are naturally proud. It is obvious that Dabazi Village does not like them, so why should they come here to suffer?
If I am not welcome here, I will find another place that will welcome me. (End of this chapter)
