Shen Chuning used spiritual spring water to water these vegetables. It would be strange if they didn't grow better than ordinary ones.
But I can’t say this to Lin Shulan.
Shen Chu Ning smiled and said, “Maybe it’s because I bought a small bag of fertilizer from the Agricultural Technology Station some time ago and scattered it on the land.”
Lin Shulan suddenly understood.
No wonder she said the vegetables in this field grew so well, it turned out to be because of the fertilizer!
"This fertilizer is really a good thing. If the country could produce more and use it on every piece of land, we would be able to harvest so much more food! We wouldn't have to worry about not having enough to eat."
Lin Shulan couldn't help but sigh.
"Mom, don't worry. Our country's agricultural scientists are actively researching. I believe that it won't be long before every piece of land can be fertilized. There will also be more productive seeds. By then, not only will everyone be able to eat enough, but we will also be able to eat rice, flour, and refined grains, and we will also be able to have meat for every meal!"
Shen Chuning said with particular seriousness.
"Puchi!" Lin Shulan was amused by her, "You are such a daredevil girl, you want to have unlimited rice and flour, and meat for every meal.
We can now live a stable life without going hungry, which is a good life that we could not even imagine before! ”
Shen Chu Ning didn't say anything more.
She knew that the day she was talking about would come sooner or later, because she had seen people living such a life in her dream, but no one would believe her if she told her about it now.
Lin Shulan no longer talked about this with Shen Chuning.
Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "Ningning, has the third brother come back every day these days?"
Because even if Zhou Yubai came back, he would come back very late and leave very early.
So except Shen Chu Ning, no one else knew whether he had come back or not.
"I don't come back every day, maybe once every one or two days." Shen Chuning responded.
Lin Shulan moved closer to Shen Chuning mysteriously, "Ningning, did the third brother tell you that the experts they are protecting here are digging for oil from the rocks in the mountains?"
Shen Chuning: …
When Zhou Yubai came back the night before, he actually mentioned that their mission here was to protect the experts of the oil survey team.
After they captured the enemy spies hiding in the mountains, they seized a telegraph machine.
A communication between an enemy spy and a foreign country was intercepted, saying that they had discovered a large amount of oil reserves in this mountain.
But when those enemy spies were interrogated, all of them refused to admit that oil had been discovered. They only sent the telegram as false news in order to obtain funds.
In fact, they didn't find oil at all.
Oil is known as the blood of industry.
Our country suffered humiliation for a hundred years due to the cowardice and incompetence of a certain government, and now its industrial development is seriously lagging behind.
If we want to develop industry rapidly and catch up with advanced Western countries, oil is an indispensable raw material.
Shen Chuning did not answer Lin Shulan's question, but asked: "Mom, where did you hear this?"
"Everyone has spread the news." Lin Shulan said, and then lowered her voice with great vigilance, "Ningning, is this a secret?
If the secret is leaked, doesn't that mean there are still enemy spies that have not been caught? ”
Lin Shulan felt that her analysis made a lot of sense and couldn't help but pat her thigh.
Shen Chu Ning smiled and said, "Mom, this matter was indeed a secret before. But it is no longer a secret now.
Brother Yubai told me that the experts of the exploration team have been searching in the mountains for such a long time but indeed have not found any oil. They and the expert group will probably withdraw in a few days. ”
Speaking of this, Shen Chuning still felt a little sad.
If they withdrew, Zhou Yubai and his third brother would have to go back to the army.
The night before, Zhou Yubai asked him if he was willing to join the army with him. He had already applied for a place to join the army and had housing allocated to him.
She didn't want to be separated from the man.
But the current situation here, she can't give up either her second brother or her job.
She could only postpone the matter of joining the army for the time being, and at least wait until her second brother woke up before she could leave.
Shen Chuning chatted with Lin Shulan, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, for a while.
It was agreed that Lin Shulan and Zhou Jiakang would go with her father to transport the vegetables to the teacher's new house tomorrow, while she would go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the city to buy meat for the banquet.
The next day, Shen Chu Ning got up earlier than usual when he went to work.
After getting up, I immediately rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative.
She had thought that since she came so early, she would definitely be able to buy meat.
Who knew that when she arrived, there was already a long queue in front of the meat counter of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Looking at the meat on the chopping board, there was not much left.
Even if she queues up now, by the time it's her turn, there will probably be no meat left.
Shen Chuning thought that there were still about ten pounds of meat left in her space that she had previously stored, so she could only take it out for emergency use and was planning not to buy any more.
As a result, when she turned around, she ran into the lady from the supply and marketing cooperative who had been selling her milk powder and malted milk.
As soon as the eldest sister saw her, she immediately came up to her warmly and asked, "Sister, did you miss the meat queue?"
I have to say that the eldest sister still has some insight, and she can see what's going on with Shen Chu Ning at a glance.
Shen Chu Ning nodded and smiled: "Yeah, I thought I came early enough, but I didn't expect others to be even earlier."
"That's right!" The eldest sister clapped her hands and said, "Sister, let me tell you, it's the off-season now, and today is a day off. No matter if you are from the countryside or the city, everyone wants to take advantage of the fact that the family has nothing to do and get together to have a feast. There are many banquets during this period, and it's hard to buy meat at the supply and marketing cooperative."
