Chapter 116: Classmate Mi's Infinite Merit
Mi Qiu has been very busy these days. Ever since Mi Xia told him that Mr. Zhang would visit the farm in a few days, he was almost scared to death.
Although following Mi Xia to Kyoto has broadened my horizons, I have met a lot of people, rich and poor, high-ranking officials and petty bureaucrats.
But this is the first time he has met someone of Mr. Zhang's level. I heard that a TV station will come to interview him.
Mi Qiu was so nervous at the thought of going on TV that she didn't practice privately these days. He talked to himself in the mirror all day long, and his wife thought he was crazy.
In addition to these, the farm has also cleaned up the office area in the past few days, prepared a set of exhibition areas for various new types of tools, and held meetings with employees once in a while.
Of course, the farm workers were not told who was coming to visit, but that important people were coming to visit, so they were asked to do their work well.
Soon the agreed time for the visit arrived, and Mi Xia arrived at the farm early and waited outside the door with her eldest brother 괗哥.
"Little sister, please wait inside. I'll let you know when someone arrives."
"Brother, I'm in good health. Besides, proper exercise is good for me and the baby in my belly." Mi Xia refused with a smile.
Soon, a line of black cars drove up from a distance, and a dark green jeep was in the front.
The jeep stopped steadily with a click. Four or five tall and strong men jumped out of the car, giving off a sense of "keep away from me".
After the men stood still, Mr. Zhang slowly got out of the car.
"Hello, Grandpa Zhang. Welcome to come for inspection and guidance." Mi Xia hurried forward to greet him.
“Xiao Xia, if you are not feeling well, don’t come out to answer the call! We are not outsiders. If anything goes wrong, Old Liu will come to find me.” Grandpa Zhang said humorously.
"Grandpa Zhang, you are such a joker. Let me introduce you. This is my eldest brother, Brother Ji. They are the two in charge of the farm."
"Leader...Okay." The two men couldn't help but feel a little awkward facing Mr. Zhang, especially with a group of reporters filming around them.
Faced with this situation, Mr. Zhang took the initiative to extend his hand, and the eldest brother hurried forward to shake it.
"Two young comrades, would you mind introducing me to be a guide for this old man?"
Mi Qiu and Mo 괗 brother hurriedly led everyone to the exhibition hall.
"This is a simple seed drill. You don't need to move. You can sow seeds easily by yourself. This is a furrow digging tool. You only need to push it and the furrow will be easily opened..."
Mi Qiu carefully introduced the usage of each tool, and the smile on Mr. Zhang's face grew wider and wider.
"Great, great! That's amazing. Who invented these tools?"
"These were all invented by my younger sister." Mi Qiu pointed at Mi Xia who was hiding behind the crowd.
"oh?"
Mr. Zhang was very surprised.
"Xiao Xia, I didn't expect you to be this capable! Do you know how much manpower and material resources these inventions have saved us farmers? Your merits are immeasurable, immeasurable!"
"Grandpa Zhang, I grew up in the countryside. I discovered these things by accident, and I didn't think too much about it. If necessary, I can make all the drawings and materials public to benefit the old people in the world."
Mi Xia answered politely.
When Mr. Zhang heard the news, he was as happy as a child and was in high spirits all the way.
The group happily visited for half a day and had a big meal at the 꺗留놇 Farm.
Although the chickens, ducks, geese, etc. raised on the farm have not grown up yet due to the short time they have been there, the vegetarian meal still amazed everyone in the group.
Of course, the reporter also did his job very diligently and took pictures of the beautiful scenery of the entire farm.
Before leaving, Mi Qiu signed a supply agreement with the farm and the staff brought by the old man. In the future, the vegetables produced by the farm will be supplied to the state banquet canteen first.
As for Mi Xia, she also took this opportunity to hand over to Mr. Zhang some simple, practical, low-cost, and easy-to-promote nationwide equipment materials and drawings.
After Mr. Zhang and his group left, Mi Qiu and Mo Xiaoge finally felt relieved.
"Oh my god, I was almost nervous to death. No, I have to change my clothes first." Mi Qiu said while wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Wait, I'm going too!" Brother Mo said as he chased after him.
Mi Xia looked at her two brothers and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
The next day, the front page of the Kyoto Daily published an article with a big headline "A female college student from Jingqing University invented dozens of practical tools". In the evening, the news of Mr. Zhang's farm visit was also broadcast on TV.
Mi Xia appeared accidentally in the camera, and her identity as a female college student of Jingqing University, although her real name was not revealed, people who were familiar with Mi Xia recognized the pure and otherworldly figure at a glance in the news.
So much so that as soon as Mi Xia entered the classroom, a group of people surrounded her.
"Mi Xia, is that farm in the news yours? It's so big! So you're a housewife!"
"Mr. Zhang, oh my god, that's my idol, Mi Xia, you actually ate with him!"
"Mi Xia! Did you invent all those tools? That's amazing! I think you should take a part-time job in mechanical manufacturing."
The classmates were talking at once, surrounding Mi Xia tightly, and asking a wide variety of questions. Mi Xia talked for a long time but still failed to satisfy the curiosity of her classmates. In the end, the bell rang to save Mi Xia.
Today's class is a professional course, and the bell just rang. Professor Tong walked in with a book under his arm.
He was wearing a Zhongshan suit that had become slightly whitish from washing, with two pens in the pockets and a pair of large black-framed glasses covering his thin face.
In the past, Professor Tong would start teaching as soon as he entered the room and never said a word of nonsense. Tian was an exception.
I saw him take out a newspaper from the book and open it. The newspaper was printed with the news about Mi Xia's invention of tools.
"Classmates, let me say a few words before class today. I saw a news report today about a girl in our school who invented dozens of practical tools."
"I lived through the turbulent years and worked in the countryside. For ten years, I know the hardships of rural life and the difficulties faced by rural people. But without the peasant brothers, we would have nothing to eat and nothing to wear."
"It may seem like a small invention, but it has saved us farmers a lot of energy and sweat. The reason why we study in college is to serve the motherland and make contributions to the people!"
"Let us all applaud this unknown classmate."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw all the classmates stood up, clapping and looking at Mi Xia.
Professor Tong followed the students' gaze and looked over, and the figure of the reporter and the girl in front of him gradually overlapped.
