Chapter 54: Crops Destroyed
It has only been a short while since I came back, and the water level has already dropped a lot.
She was not in a hurry because there were so many people in the production team and many of them had returned.
Even if we go there a little later, it won't be a big problem.
I don’t know what the situation is outside now.
I guess none of the officials will end up well from this incident.
Not only will the team members have opinions, but even the higher-ups will think they are not doing their job well.
During this season, large rivers and dams are the key areas of attention.
The current situation of the Red Star Production Team definitely does not meet the requirements.
If it only affects our own production team, it would be fine, but we are afraid that it will affect the entire production team, which would be troublesome.
When she went over to take a look, she still brought a shovel with her.
The situation is much better now, especially on the west side of the avenue.
There is no flowing water anymore, the ground is just bumpy and there are many puddles.
In addition, the road was difficult to walk on and was very muddy.
When Liu Yunshuang went out, the rain had stopped, not even the drizzle, but the sky was still overcast.
The situation on the east side of the avenue is a little more complicated, as the water has not completely receded.
She rolled up her trouser legs a little. This was the only clean clothes she had. If it got wet again, she would have nothing to change into.
This time, more people came out.
Many elderly people and female comrades came out to watch.
She followed the main force and headed east.
Zhang Changming and others were near the rice fields. The situation there was quite serious and no one could pass through.
The pond is full of water, and there are ditches next to the rice pond, and now a lot of silt has been washed out.
No one dared to go over because they didn't know the depth.
"It's over, this year's harvest is gone!"
An old man sighed, his eyes full of despair.
Liu Yunshuang looked at the rice seedlings scattered across the pond.
A lot of it was washed out, and the most terrifying thing was that the rice was broken.
The ears of corn have fallen off, and there is no way to remedy the situation.
As a native rural person, she felt extremely distressed by this situation.
But in this situation, there was nothing she could do.
After being reborn, she also wondered if she could say something to change the situation.
After all, Zhang Changming and Chen Chu'e were so good to her.
But she didn't say it.
The situation of the dam was also complicated, and she didn't know exactly where the problem occurred.
If you say it without any beginning or end, it will cause unnecessary trouble.
How can you expect to save more people when you don’t even have the ability to protect yourself?
"Captain, what should we do now?
The corn in the west was beaten so badly that it certainly won’t grow.
Many of the seedlings were broken, and the leaves were all tangled.”
Accountant Xu was also very anxious. He was responsible for investigating the situation over there.
It was almost the same as her memories from her previous life.
"Hey, what on earth is going on? We just repaired the dam, how could it burst?"
Zhang Changming was also puzzled. This construction was done every year. Could it be that no one paid attention to it? This shouldn't be the case. I was the one who was in charge of it.
What is going on? "It's over. If there is no food, what will we do in autumn?"
"My family, old and young, can't starve to death!"
…
The people around were talking about it, and were obviously a little devastated.
We were living on these rations, and now what is being destroyed is a year's hard work and hope!
"Captain, what do you say we should do?"
Zhang Changming was silent for a few seconds, then spoke very seriously.
"Don't worry, it has already happened, and complaining about it will be useless.
I'll go to the commune now and tell you about the situation here.
Accountant Xu, take the laborers in your team and wait until the water stops flowing to check the specific condition of the dam."
"Okay, Captain, just leave it to me.
What about these rice ears and the corn in the west? "
Zhang Changming sighed. He didn't know what to do. "Let's talk about it when I come back."
For matters like this, you still need to ask for instructions.
The team leader went back to get his bicycle and headed to the upper commune.
The remaining people were waiting here, and people kept collapsing.
By evening, the water had not gone down.
Zhang Changming came back and brought a staff member from the commune with him.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Captain, Captain~"
As soon as he showed up, he was surrounded by everyone.
The man also knew how the team members felt and quickly comforted them.
"Don't worry, I understand how you feel.
Now, this situation has occurred in several nearby production teams, and the organization will find a way to rescue them.
At the same time, we have to save ourselves.”
It seemed like in the previous life, there was also such a person who came to help with the aftermath.
The commune is so busy, there aren’t that many people.
All the work requires everyone to follow and witness it.
First of all, there was a problem with the dam between the production team next to it and their production team, and it broke down first.
With the impact of the river water, several weaker places nearby were breached.
The most important thing at the moment is post-disaster rescue. All the rice has been destroyed.
Now is the time for growth, especially in the last two months.
Now that they have been soaked, the grains in the ears have just begun to form and there is no way to eat them.
The four seasons here are distinct, so it is impossible to plant another crop.
Another thing is that the corn over there is on sale.
But the stick was already quite big, so everyone finally decided to clean up that side.
While it's still there and yet it's spoiled, share it with the team members. It can still provide for a few meals.
Zhang Changming had no choice but to agree.
“Comrades, rest assured that this small-scale disaster will not affect the large-scale harvest.
As long as there is surplus food in other places, we can report it and apply for assistance."
People who came from the commune always spoke passionately.
This made the team members more positive.
Every household now has to contribute someone, and work points are calculated based on the work.
We have to collect the corn cobs quickly. They are still tender now and can be eaten even with the cob pulp.
Time waits for no one. Once the weather clears up, it will easily get bad.
After making the decision, I looked for some people who had two working people at home.
It's time to go to work even in the dark.
When Liu Yunshuang saw the three brothers of the Xu family, she also had a sad look on her face.
At this time, I guess Xu Lanjiang or Xu Lanhe would stay.
As for Xu Lanhai, he didn't want to go to work during the day, let alone at night.
Liu Yunshuang ignored him and decided not to go.
It’s definitely not okay to leave three kids alone at home in the middle of the night.
Besides, she doesn't lack those things now, so this is enough.
After the plan was made, everyone dispersed.
