Chapter 522 Hiding Food
Liu Erlai was overjoyed, thinking that he had caught Chu Tian, so he quietly approached the door of the woodshed and looked inside through the crack. However, he only saw Chu Tian inside, seemingly gesturing at the air, and did not find anything unusual. Liu Erlai was unwilling to give up, and searched around for a long time, but still found nothing. Encountering a crisis, cleverly resolving it Although Liu Erlai did not find any evidence, he did not give up his suspicion of Chu Tian. He spread rumors everywhere, saying that Chu Tian must have done something shameful to have so much food. For a time, rumors spread in the village, and some villagers who did not know the truth began to misunderstand Chu Tian. Faced with these rumors, Chu Tian did not panic.
He knew that the innocent were innocent, and as long as he was upright, he would not be afraid of others' gossip. However, the matter did not end there. Seeing that the rumors did not have much effect, Liu Erlai actually went to the commune to report Chu Tian, saying that he had hidden grain and the source was unknown. The commune leaders attached great importance to this matter and immediately sent people to investigate. The investigation team came to Qingping Village and took Chu Tian to the brigade headquarters for questioning. Chu Tian calmly explained to the investigation team what happened. He said that the grain was planted in a piece of wasteland that he accidentally found outside the village. Because of his careful care, he had a good harvest. The people in the investigation team listened to Chu Tian's explanation and were half-believing and half-doubting. They decided to check the wasteland that Chu Tian mentioned. Chu Tian brought the investigation team to the wasteland, and saw that there were indeed some traces of planting on the wasteland. It turned out that Chu Tian had long expected that there would be such a day, and he did some things on the wasteland in advance to make it look like a large amount of grain had indeed been planted here. After a careful investigation, the people in the investigation team did not find any illegal or irregular behavior by Chu Tian. They appreciated Chu Tian's diligence and kindness, and severely criticized Liu Erlai's rumor-mongering. So far, Chu Tian's crisis has been successfully resolved, and his reputation in the village has become even louder. Leading to prosperity and moving towards a new chapter After experiencing this storm, Chu Tian has become more determined to lead his fellow villagers to prosperity. He imparted his experience of planting in space to the villagers without reservation, teaching them how to select seeds, how to fertilize, and how to irrigate. Under Chu Tian's guidance, the villagers began to try to plant some high-yield crops on their own private plots. In order to improve the lives of the villagers, Chu Tian also used the cash crops planted in the space to lead the villagers to develop sideline businesses. He taught everyone to spin cotton into thread and weave it into cloth; to dry and process herbs to make simple medicines. Then, Chu Tian took the villagers to take these products to the market to sell, and exchanged a lot of money. As time went on, life in Qingping Village gradually changed dramatically. The villagers' lives became more and more prosperous, new houses were built in the village, and the children had better conditions for learning. Chu Tian also became the pride of Qingping Village, and his name was known throughout the surrounding area. Many years later, when Chu Tian recalled his experience in the 60s, his heart was filled with emotion. He knew that it was that mysterious space that changed his life and the fate of Qingping Village. And he will continue to work hard to create a better future for this land and the people here.
Famine relief in Chutian Famine came in the 20s, and a terrible famine swept across the vast land of China like a demon, and countless villages fell into despair. In this small village called Anning Village, the situation was particularly severe. The fields that were full of vitality in the past are now barren, and the cracked land is open-mouthed, as if silently telling of despair. In order to fill their stomachs, the villagers have almost exhausted all the edible things. At first, everyone could still dig some wild vegetables in the mountains, but as the famine continued, wild vegetables gradually disappeared. Later, people could only turn their attention to tree bark. The bark of the old locust tree was stripped bare, revealing the pale trunk, as if witnessing the cruelty of the disaster. Chutian, an educated youth who came from the city to work in the countryside, watched the villagers struggling in hunger, and his heart was full of pity. He was tall, his face was thin but resolute, and his eyes often flashed with wisdom. In this era of extreme material scarcity, he knew that he had to do something, otherwise the villagers would face a more tragic fate. System Assistance Since coming to Anning Village, Chu Tian has had an unknown secret - he has a mysterious system space. This space is like an independent little world. The passage of time is completely different from the outside world, and the land is fertile beyond imagination. Any crop can grow at an astonishing speed. Before the famine came, Chu Tian had already tried to grow various crops in the space. He knew the importance of food to the villagers, so he kept exploring planting techniques and used the advantages of space to cultivate batches of high-quality wheat. Now, seeing the villagers starving to death, Chu Tian can no longer sit still. He decided to take out the wheat in the space, grind it into flour and give it to the villagers. He first took out the plump wheat from the space, and then used a simple stone mill to start the long work of grinding flour. Sweat soaked his clothes, but he did not stop for a moment. He had only one thought in his mind: let the villagers have a bite of hot food as soon as possible. Distributing flour Finally, after several days and nights of hard work, Chu Tian ground out a large amount of flour.
He set up several big pots on the open space of the village commune, divided the flour into portions, and prepared to distribute them to the villagers. After the news spread, the villagers dragged their weak bodies and rushed over. They lined up in a long line, with both expectation and doubt in their eyes. When Chu Tian handed the flour to the villagers, a burst of gratitude broke out in the crowd. "Tian'er, you are really our savior!" A white-haired old lady took the flour tremblingly, tears streaming down her face. "Yes, if it weren't for Chu Tian, we don't know how to survive." The young and strong men also nodded in praise. Everyone spoke one after another, and their gratitude to Chu Tian was overflowing with words.
However, in the crowd, there was a man who frowned, with deep doubts in his eyes. He was the village party secretary Li Dashan. The Party Secretary's Suspicion Li Dashan was a meticulous person. He had been working diligently in the village and cared about the villagers. Seeing Chu Tian suddenly take out so much flour, his first reaction was not happiness, but vigilance. In this era of famine, food was more precious than gold. How could an educated youth have so much flour? Is there any unspeakable secret behind this?
