Chapter 286 Director Li, do you want to slap me in the face?
Chen Tang went to the hospital to buy some medicine, as well as some clothes and nutritional supplements, and sent them anonymously.
The item was quickly received by the farm staff. Xiao Yi found it interesting that the sender's address was from a small mountain village and the name was also an ordinary name.
Over the years, very few people would send things to those who were sent down to the countryside. Even if they did, most of them were food and daily necessities, and it was rare to see medicine.
Medicines are expensive, and even if they are sent, there is no guarantee that they will reach the people being sent down.
Did this person send these things on purpose? Did he know that he would not deduct money from the money, or did he know that someone among the people who were sent down was sick?
Either way, he was either from a nearby village or knew the inside story.
Xiao Yi quickly thought of Chen Tang who had visited recently.
But he didn't say anything and just handed the things to a few elderly people.
There isn’t much medicine, but it is life-saving for several elderly people in poor health.
Professor Qin's son Qin Wang saw that those medicines also contained nourishing vitamins. Not only were these things difficult to buy and expensive, they were also very beneficial to his father's health. Several elderly people with the same illness could also take some.
So he thanked Xiao Yi again and again.
Xiao Yi shook his head: "This is not given to you by me. As for who sent it, you can look at the list yourself."
Qin Wang looked at the list. He didn't know the names on the list, but he also knew that someone helped them without remembering their own name.
But he still thanked Mr. Xiao. His father was a scholar, and all the professors who were sent down here were weak scholars who could not bear such hard work.
If it weren't for Xiao Yi's frequent help, they wouldn't be alive today.
After returning home, Qin Wang immediately gave the medicine to his father.
After his father fell into a coma last time, Xiao Yi asked the barefoot doctor in the village to treat them. The main problem was malnutrition and being too tired. It happened to be a bit hot that day, so his physical condition broke out prematurely before June.
Even though Mr. Xiao gave his father two days of rest, the old man still looked uneasy, his steps were weak, and he even staggered when he walked. Not to mention working, it was difficult for him to even get out of bed.
Qin Wang was anxious and repeatedly asked the barefoot doctor to prescribe medicine. It was difficult for villagers to apply for medicine, and even with work points, he could not buy many pills. After all, it was almost June, the busy farming season, and the number of sick people in the village would increase, so the barefoot doctor had to keep the medicine for the villagers.
Now that he had the medicine sent by this kind-hearted person, he finally felt a little relieved.
Several elderly people who were still able to hold on also helped share the work, allowing Professor Qin to rest for a few more days and his health finally recovered.
Qin Wang thanked the person who sent the medicine, but he was a little confused. His wife had remarried a long time ago, his son was not yet an adult, and his relatives were eager to cut off ties with them. His students were either unable to take care of themselves or just watched from the sidelines. So who sent the medicine his father needed in time?
He didn't think about whether this person might be Xiao Yi or Director Li. Both of them were cautious people, especially Owner Xiao. If he really wanted to help, it would be impossible for him to give them medicine and nutritional supplements so openly.
But no matter who it was, he kept the kindness in his heart.
After Chen Tang sent the stuff over, he took the opportunity to visit Director Li because he had written the manuscript. After reading it, Director Li exclaimed "good"!
"This story is well written. Not only does it have contrast, but it also integrates a farmer's bitter and resolute spirit into the search for new fertilizers, leading to the subsequent invention of new fertilizers. It perfectly fits our path of fertilizer research. But Comrade Shen, why didn't you leave the contact address of our Fertilizer Research Institute?"
He didn't know that Chen Tang was the author of "The Road Carved by Two Hands", but he knew that Chen Tang's other pen name was Zhou Tang. The two had a quarrel over the fertilizer factory, and after that Chen Tang rarely wrote under this pen name.
The reason why they asked Chen Tang to help promote their farm's research institute was because they were intrigued by the article Chen Tang wrote recently.
He didn't have the ability to contact the author of the article, but remembering that Chen Tang was also a famous author, he invited him over.
The story was well written and it was exactly the effect he wanted, but without the address and name, wouldn't no one know who the story was about?
What if it is claimed by another fertilizer factory?
Chen Tang said, "The theoretical data of the newly developed fertilizer will be published in the newspaper. I don't need to write any promotional materials and many people will buy it. I thought it was strange, so I checked it out and found that the fertilizer factory in Hai City also developed a new fertilizer on the same day and published it in the newspaper earlier. The data was better than our fertilizer. That's why the person who Director Li had signed the contract with with full confidence ran away."
Director Li's heart ached: "Obviously, he ran away because he saw Xiao Yi's fierce face!"
If it weren't for this, why would he spend so much money to invite Shen Tang.
Of course, Chen Tang didn't ask him for a high price, just five hundred yuan plus some receipts.
Shen Tang raised his lips: “So, Director Li wants to slap his face?”
Director Li: "What do you mean?"
"Director Li, have you ever thought that your research institute has developed a new product, and the fertilizer factory has also developed a new product. You have been researching this fertilizer for so many years. Is it really such a coincidence that the fertilizer factory has also developed a fertilizer that is better than yours?"
Director Li raised his eyebrows, looked around, and asked in a low voice, "Are you saying that there are traitors in our institute?"
Chen Tang was speechless: "I mean, maybe the fertilizer factory has falsified the data."
What kind of traitor is this? They have provided such excellent conditions, the salary is so high, and the core personnel have all had their backgrounds checked, so how could there be a traitor so easily?
Even if there is a traitor, he is just an outsider who is not involved in much research.
Another thing is that she had seen data published in newspapers, which said that using their fertilizers could yield 1,000 kilograms per mu, and that piglets that had eaten the feed could weigh 400 kilograms in three months.
This is like growing weight even in a dream.
What are you bragging about?
Hybrid rice has only become popular this year.
In the past, even if chemical fertilizers were used, the maximum yield per mu was 300 to 400 kilograms. What kind of chemical fertilizer can increase the yield per mu of land by 1,600 kilograms?
Ambrosia?
What’s the difference between this and the famine in 1959 when every village reported producing 10,000 kilograms per acre of land?
Director Li was shocked: "Even you can see it."
He said that there was something wrong with the data. The country people thought that what was written in the newspaper was true, but those who have done experiments know that if this thing can produce 1,000 kilograms per mu, there will be no starving people in the world!
There is no need for evidence to commit fraud. Even if you bought someone else's fertilizer, what does it matter if it didn't produce that much grain?
People will just say that you don’t know how to use fertilizers and don’t understand farming, unlike them who have an entire team to grow so much food.
In addition, he heard that various parts of Hai City had introduced the high-quality rice varieties from Jiangcheng, so maybe they could really turn their luck around.
Chen Tang narrowed his eyes and smiled slyly: "So, let's hype up this article. Then someone will definitely jump out and claim it, saying that I wrote about their fertilizer and only by using their fertilizer can we produce hundreds of kilograms per mu.
If one factory claims it, no one will doubt who I wrote it about, but if multiple people claim it at the same time, then…”
Director Li said excitedly, "Then the news will get bigger and bigger. When people write to you and ask about our research institute, you can write about it. Not only will it attract attention, but our fertilizers will also be in great supply!"
