Xu Nanxing laughed in anger when he heard this: "This farm tractor is originally used for plowing the soil! If not now, when will it be used? Are we going to wait until the tractor rusts before using it?"
Agricultural tractors are originally designed for agricultural production. They usually have a plowshare installed at the back. Using a tractor to plow the land is fast and deep, and the plowing area is also large.
A tractor plowing for ten minutes is much more efficient than ten people plowing for an hour.
The speed of plowing the land by human power is incomparable. Even using oxen to plow the land is much faster than humans.
But the villagers regarded cows as valuable property, and the soil had just thawed not long ago, so there was no way the villagers would let the cows go out to plow the fields for the first time.
Okay!
The cows were very precious, so they were afraid that they would get tired or sick, so they were unwilling to use them.
But they are unwilling to take out the tractor. Isn’t that too much?
Spring plowing is also a very important labor. It is really speechless to waste time on plowing the fields!
There is a reason why Xu Nanxing is so angry!
This was a piece of news I heard from Chen Jiaxin after the New Year.
Chen Jiaxin had a classmate who was the son of a large factory worker. His family arranged for him to work in a small construction corps in Heilongjiang Province. The conditions there were actually much better than those of theirs who had to go to the countryside and be self-sufficient.
Of course, the winter there is longer and the temperature is lower, but because the black soil there covers a wider area, the annual harvest is still good.
During the autumn harvest last year, something extremely speechless happened there!
At that time, the temperature in Heilongjiang Province dropped sharply, and the cooling came much earlier than in previous years.
So everyone in the Construction Corps stepped up their efforts to harvest.
They were afraid that there would be a sudden heavy snowfall and the crops would not be harvested in time and would be covered by the snow in the fields.
But what you fear will come true. It started snowing on the third day of their rush to harvest. Although it was only a light snow, who knows if it would turn into a heavy snow!
Food is the lifeline of a major agricultural country. Last year's harvest looked good. If the heavy snow causes all the food to be wasted, it would be a pity for everyone who has been busy all year.
So the people in the Corps asked their leaders for the use of harvesters so that they could harvest the grain faster!
That’s right, it had already started snowing, but the people in the Corps had not yet used machines, and were harvesting the crops using manpower!
Only now that this has happened, have we started applying to use the machine!
But the application was rejected as soon as it was submitted!
The visitor even asked them in a high-sounding manner not to always rely on machines. Those machines are very expensive. Once they break down, they have to spend foreign exchange to buy parts abroad, which is very troublesome!
Tell them not to cause more trouble to the country, but to display the revolutionary spirit, not to be afraid of hardship or fatigue, and to try their best to speed up the harvest!
So in the end they had to rely solely on manpower to speed up the harvest.
But in the end, heavy snow fell on the fifth day, and the entire construction corps was covered in ice and snow!
More than half of the remaining grain in the field was frozen in the ground, and even a harvester was powerless at this time!
These educated youths were in despair, as they also depended on these harvests to earn food!
With half of their food missing, they won’t be able to survive the entire winter!
Just because we are reluctant to use machines, more than half of the grain cannot be harvested!
This catastrophic event caused by a combination of natural and man-made disasters is truly speechless!
It's so unlucky to meet a leader who knows nothing and likes to give blind orders!
So when Xu Nanxing heard that the commune leader in front of him was also reluctant to use a tractor to plow the land, of course he couldn't help but retort!
