Chapter 138 I think it's a good thing
Without Liang Xinyue, their backbone is gone.
They stood on the field one by one and looked at the people brought by the cadres of the regiment.
Everyone knew that some people would come, but they didn't expect so many.
The most important thing is, since Liang Xinyue is not here, who will deal with these people?
The agricultural experts who came with Xiao Shun and his team laughed like crazy when they saw the crops grown here.
Some people were recording, while others squatted down and grabbed the soil to smell and pinch it. When one of them stood on the ground, Dongdong came over waving a branch:
"Get up, we can't play in the fields we've cultivated."
The other children who followed also spoke up:
"Yes, yes."
Chen Xiangqian was anxious, and took a step forward to pick up his son:
"Take them to play somewhere else. This is an adult's job, don't butt in."
Dongdong is still shouting:
"My aunt said that you can't step on the land you've planted. If you step on the soil and make it hard, the vegetables won't grow well."
Fu Chunhua's face also flushed as she ran up the slope in a few seconds. She didn't dare to scold her son loudly. She just took the child from the man's hand, held it tightly, and whispered:
"Those are officials. Don't talk nonsense. They are here to inspect our work."
Dongdong heard that he was an official, so he looked back and then at his mother:
“Do they have guns?”
Yaya and the others followed behind Dongdong. Although they stood a little further away, they were always watching the group of people vigilantly.
The experts didn't care what the children said; they were looking at the thriving potato seedlings.
They are in the planting business, so they naturally know that the potatoes they are planting have only just sprouted, while those here have grown long and look like they are about to bear fruit.
An expert gently pulled out a little of the seedlings and saw that the roots underneath were covered with a film.
"Hey, how is this planted?"
He looked around and found that everything was covered with plastic film.
A comrade standing there saw the corn balls they were planting down the slope and said:
“What is that growing?”
Xiao Shun responded:
"Maogu is corn. They just plant the seedlings they have grown."
A younger expert jumped down in three or two steps, then brought up two dumplings that had not been planted yet and handed them to everyone to see.
Political Commissar Xu called Fu Chunhua over:
"Xiao Fu, you and Xiao Liang did this together. Can you tell these comrades how you did it?"
Fu Chunhua looked at her man Chen Xiangqian, who smiled and nodded. Fu Chunhua stepped forward boldly:
"This isn't that difficult. Sister Xinyue taught us to use some sand. She said we can't use mud. Then we added dried pig manure, some urine, and some wood ash and mixed them all together."
"We need to stir it for a longer time, and we step on it with our feet until everything is mixed. Once it becomes sticky, we grab a handful and roll it into a round ball about this size. Then we use our fingers to press a hole in it. Don't press too deep, just the height of a knuckle. Then put a good corn seed on it."
"Cover them with some fine soil, add some firewood ash, and then place them neatly in the pit prepared by Xinyue sister. Cover all the balls with fine soil, don't cover too much, just fill some gaps, and finally sprinkle water, don't water it, just sprinkle water lightly to moisten it. Cover it with film, and it will grow like this in a few days. If Xinyue sister hadn't been in trouble, we would have finished planting these yesterday and today."
Several experts lowered their heads to discuss for a while, then picked up a dumpling and said:
"Can we open one and take a look?"
Fu Chunhua felt a little distressed. She glanced at Zhou Guoliang's face as he walked over and nodded:
"Yes, just be careful not to break the roots, you can still plant it."
The experts carefully separated the balls, and became even more careful when they saw the tender white roots.
After fully opening it, I found that the roots inside the small ball were surprisingly well developed.
Fu Chunhua also saw someone draw a picture of the roots in a notebook. How could these people draw a picture of this?
One of them asked Fu Chunhua:
"Where is the pit you're talking about? The one where this dumpling is placed?"
Zhou Guoliang stepped forward and said:
"This is in my backyard, Sister Fu, you can take them to see it. Tell them how Xinyue did it."
The old leader looked at the huge valley and started talking to Xiao Shun. Xiao Shun pointed here and there and almost repeated what he had just said.
But this time, the old leader listened with great interest, and had a real comparison and saw some of their achievements. This provided a practical basis for imagination.
Fu Chunhua took them to see the nursery area, which was now empty, as most of the seedlings had been taken away. But they could see that the pit had been carefully built.
To be honest, it’s all made of mud and firewood ash, but this not only provides nutrients to the corn seeds, but also isolates them from some pests.
Fu Chunhua pointed at a few dumplings thrown aside and said:
"These are the ones that didn't produce any seedlings. They must be from bad seeds."
Unexpectedly, the experts said as if they had found a treasure:
"Can we take these two away?"
Fu Chunhua nodded, saying, "These are just mud and feces, what's so special about them?" She even found a piece of film to wrap it up and handed it to them.
After these experts discussed it, they still wanted to meet Liang Xinyue.
But she is pregnant and has a concussion, so we really can't disturb her.
So they found Political Commissar Xu and Zhou Guoliang and asked them to come back after a while. One reason was to check on the growth of the crops, and the other was to wait until Liang Xinyue got better so they could communicate again.
This was no problem. Several experts stayed in the fields and refused to leave. While checking the things they had grown before, they talked with Fu Chunhua and others.
Xiao Shun was going to stay here, but the leader called him:
"Come back to the group with us, and then we will talk about you."
All the people in the agricultural field stayed, so Xiao Wei was asked to stay and take care of things. If there was anything, they would come to them again. They wanted to have a small meeting.
Zhou Guoliang asked again:
"Commander, we know you are here, but why are they here?"
Zhou Guoliang still took a look at the experts who stayed behind.
The chief laughed and said:
"I don't know either, but it will probably be a good thing. They said they wanted to find a way to make the northwest a granary, but I don't have that. I see some hope in you guys."
Back at the group, the small meeting room came in handy.
After everyone sat down, they all took out their notebooks seriously. The leader coughed lightly and said:
"I have read all the reports you submitted."
Then he glanced at Xiao Shun:
"I've read both your divorce report and your discharge application."
