"Mayor, I... I had no choice! Although the previous sandstorm did manage to harvest some vegetables, they weren't ripe, and the yield was greatly reduced."
Seafood imported from coastal cities can only be exchanged back at a ratio of 2:1!
Two pounds of cabbage can only be exchanged for one pound of miscellaneous fish, or a dead crab!
It's a last resort!
"Otherwise, who wouldn't want everyone to eat more?" Han Guosheng replied with a pitiful yet cautious expression.
"Ha. A last resort? You think nobody can't smell the stewed meat, vegetables, and seafood coming from your brother-in-law's house every day?!"
"Smack!"
A folder was thrown directly at Han Guosheng's face. A bloody mark instantly appeared on his old face.
"thump!"
Seeing his secret exposed, Han Guosheng immediately knelt on the ground with a loud thud. It sounded painful.
"Mayor! I...I'm sorry! I'll never do it again!"
"Ha!... Don't say I didn't give you a chance!"
I was sent down here to achieve results!
Didn't we find a plastic processing machine before?
"Yes, yes! We've brought in machines from several factories. They've been repaired and are all usable!"
"Starting tomorrow, have someone go out and find plastic products for me, and then use machines to convert them into plastic film that can be used in greenhouses."
Then they expanded the greenhouse area for me. I started growing vegetables and Chinese medicinal herbs.
I have already consulted agricultural researchers and some traditional Chinese medicine doctors.
Let them all go and plant it!
What's the point of a dead person?
Confiscate all the medicines that you leaders embezzled. Confiscate as much as you embezzled in the first place! And food as well. If that's not enough, return it with something else, or at least labor.
I want to see the specific bill.
You have three days to submit the bill. Otherwise, being dismissed is the least of your worries; watch your head!
"...Yes! Yes!" Han Guosheng was dumbfounded.
They've secretly hidden more stuff than the entire settlement has. How are they going to return it after they've used it all?!
"Tomorrow, everyone will be divided into two groups. One group will go out to find plastic products, and the other group will cultivate new greenhouse bases."
Yes! Yes!
"Go away."
...
Gu Zhou rubbed his temples in annoyance. This is fucking ridiculous. They transferred him to this place.
However, reforms are still necessary. Otherwise, not only will Han Guosheng lose, but his own mayoral position will also be in jeopardy.
They clearly have a large number of machines at their disposal. The power generation is just about enough. The wind has to be constantly blowing over this small plot of land in the greenhouse.
After looking at the regional map in his hand for a while, Gu Zhou designated several dozen acres of land near the area. Since the land was already frozen, the first thing to do was to remove the ice.
Using coarse salt or similar methods is impractical; you either have to shovel it directly or burn it...
"Hey, yes, get someone from the engineering department over here. I need to see the leader within half an hour."
...
Manager Wang from the engineering department arrived at the mayor's office, trembling slightly.
"Mayor, you wanted to see me?"
Do you have a de-icing machine?
"Yes, there is! Mayor! All you need to do is install snowplows on the front of the trucks! It's very efficient."
"Wang Shuimiao, right?"
"Yes, Mayor."
"Hmm. How many snow shovels like these can you make?"
"Speed up, we can build two now. If we need more later, we can build more."
"Two are enough. You arrange for people to build at least one of these cars per day."
We now need to increase the number of greenhouses.
As you know, we now lack not only food and drink, but also medicinal herbs.
Especially fever reducers and anti-inflammatory drugs.
Therefore, I plan to expand the greenhouse cultivation of grains, vegetables, and medicinal herbs.
"You need to build the machines as quickly as possible so we can get started as soon as possible."
"...Really!?" Wang Shuimiao asked in disbelief.
"Would I lie to you? I know the previous mayor was incompetent. I'm here to reform."
"Okay! I'll organize people to work through the night right away!" Wang Shuimiao said and ran off. Gu Zhou didn't even have a chance to say anything.
But none of that matters anymore.
He had spoken so clearly because he wanted to convey his message through Wang Shuimiao.
This boosted everyone's morale and saved him the trouble of explaining.
...
The small building of the engineering department.
"Boss, are you serious? Are we really going to start planting herbs?"
"The mayor said it himself, how could it be false? Let's get to work tonight!"
"good!"
"good!"
"Jiangnan, go to the dorms and see if anyone knows anything about this. Call them all over."
"good!"
...
One whole night! A whole night! Everyone stayed up until their eyes were bloodshot, and finally, they built the first machine!
With the first machine officially running.
Large-scale greenhouse bases will be gradually developed.
The machines shoveled the ice over, and large tillers began turning the soil. Then, people were organized to throw away dead branches and leaves to burn.
The fire burned for a day and a night.
More than 100 acres of land were finally turned over.
Not only was fertilizer applied at the same time, but the soil also softened considerably due to the high temperature!
Meanwhile, a new batch of plastic film was produced day and night.
As for the greenhouse frame, that's even easier.
A team was organized and brought back directly from the old greenhouse base. They were all made of stainless steel. Even after the apocalypse, they were still usable.
The greenhouses were taken from a previously abandoned greenhouse site.
The frame was installed, covered with plastic film, and an insulation device was added.
Many hands make light work. All the work was completed on the twelfth day.
