"That's true."
Wang Ke, who had already met him once, was still surprised when he saw the jujube tree in the back hill of Nanshao Village.
Generally speaking, plants have thorns because of their evolution to protect their seeds. This jujube tree, on the other hand, welcomes birds to eat.
"This strange phenomenon needs to be studied carefully. It may not be just a golden saying, it is just a new variety. We have to let the Jinmen Agricultural Research Institute graft a few plants." Professor Wen sighed.
"Teacher Wen, could this case of the disappearance of mosquitoes and flies be an isolated case?"
"This is more valuable for research. Maybe there are some mineral deposits underground in Nanshao Village, or some plants on the surface, which have changed the water, soil, and air in Nanshao Village, making it impossible for mosquitoes and flies to survive! In short, it is a natural phenomenon that cannot be explained for the time being. , our ancestors always like to give it a mysterious and superstitious color and prove its rationality through legends."
Wang Ke nodded, but he couldn't completely agree with Professor Wen's point of view.
Because Gu Maolin knows things underground, understands snake language, and has his own perception ability, so what does it mean? If Professor Wen knew that the ancient well at his godfather's house was not deduced through some mathematical model or geological model, but could be seen directly, he might go crazy immediately.
Professor Wen continued: "Does Ye Xianzhang know this jujube tree?"
"She probably doesn't know." Wang Ke thought, even biology can't explain it.
well! No matter what the weather is like, give yourself a blue sky first.
"Come on, let's go back. There's still some time now. I'll take the instrument and go to your godfather's yard to take a look."
Professor Wen didn't want to waste his time at all, so Wang Ke followed him back to the elementary school.
As soon as he entered the back door, he saw a pickup truck driving in from the gate of the primary school. Section Chief Chang Gaofeng and his comrades from the reconnaissance class were here. Okay, I can’t take the test today.
"Squad leader!" Niu Suozhu and three other soldiers squatting in the car stood up when they saw Wang Ke from a distance, waving and shouting.
Section Chief Chang Gaofeng and Song Ruimin stretched out a hand from the cab window and shook it.
Before the car stopped, the three soldiers behind jumped out, all wearing white shirts, green military trousers, and red five-star military caps. The three soldiers rushed to Wang Ke and Professor Wen, stood at attention and saluted. Song Ruimin just moved a box over.
Chang Gaofeng shook hands warmly with Professor Wen and Wang Ke. While they were chatting, Wang Ke gave Song Ruimin a slap and asked, "What's in the box?"
"Squad leader, there are three boxes of Sha Guo I brought for you." Sweet Potato Liang Xiaolong interrupted from behind.
"Teacher Wen, this box is for you." Wang Ke said to Professor Wen, then turned to Song Ruimin and said: "Okay, send this box to Teacher Wen's room, and the other two boxes will be given to the village chief and one to the village chief. Give the box to my godfather."
After giving instructions, Wang Ke said to Section Chief Chang Gaofeng: "Chief Chang, please park the car here. Come on, I will take you around."
"Yes, yes, squad leader Wang, you go first, I will go directly to the village chief's house in a moment."
"Okay, Teacher Wen, I will also throw the village chief's Sha Guo to you. Take it with you when you go. Let's go, pick up another box and go to my godfather's house first."
When Section Chief Chang Gaofeng heard this, why did he transfer to your godfather's house? But it was not convenient to ask, so the group followed Section Chief Chang out of the primary school gate.
Wang Ke looked back and saw four soldiers following him. Digua Liang Xiaolong was standing at the end, carrying a box.
"Song Ruiming."
"arrive!"
"You guys go first, go to my godfather's house first, and I'll walk behind with Section Chief Chang."
"Yes." Song Ruimin led the team, and the four soldiers lined up. This is the rule in the army: two people form a team and three people form a line.
What does it mean? When two people are going out, they must stand in a row. This is called forming a team. Three or more people must stand in a line, front to back, which is called a queue. Although it is Nanshao Village, this rule cannot be forgotten.
They had another mission this time, to ask Gu Maolin to help him get a haircut. In a small reconnaissance team, Wang Ke and Gu Maolin both know how to cut hair, but once Gu Maolin left, haircut became a problem.
Wang Ke accompanied Section Chief Chang Gaofeng. He briefly explained the situation in Nanshao Village, especially the changes in the village, the small reservoir, three village-run enterprises, and the fact that every household raised donkeys and the factory where his godfather Dong Pianfang worked. Of course, introductions to hospitals and clinics are also indispensable.
With that said, he arrived at his godfather Dong Pianfang's home. On the way, Section Chief Chang was shocked by the changes in Nanshao Village. All the houses along the way were new. The unified style, unified orientation, and unified distance only changed when we arrived at Dong Pianfang's home. Both small courtyards have two floors.
Godfather Dong Pianfang, Ye Pianpian and Gu Maolin are all still catching up on their sleep.
As soon as the two people entered the yard, they saw Niu Suozhu pulling Gu Maolin's ears and dragging him out of the house. Gu Maolin didn't even wear shoes.
"Chief Chang is here. Gu Maolin goes upstairs and calls for my godfather."
"Yes, squad leader, look at Niu Suozhu's hands. He used all his strength to beat the returning group." After saying that, he ran up the stairs barefoot, shouting as he ran: "Uncle Dong, there are guests coming. La."
Godfather Dong Pianfang immediately came down from upstairs. When he saw it was Section Chief Chang Gaofeng, he walked into the courtyard with his feet in step. The two hands, holding each other tightly, are brothers who live and die together in fighting the flood.
Chang Gaofeng was also excited by these greetings. Wang Ke and his godfather Dong Pianfang accompanied Section Chief Chang Gaofeng to see the new clinic and new factory. When they arrived at the small reservoir in the west of the village, the old village chief also came after hearing the news.
Standing on the reservoir construction site, Section Chief Chang's eyes widened. But I never expected that this diversion dam, this small reservoir, and this sluice gate would be so well done! Although it is not completed, it can be seen that Nanshao Village treats this project as a descendant project with great care, and it is constructed entirely according to its own design.
If there is another flood that has never happened in a century, this reservoir will ensure the safety of Nanshao Village. If we can strive to store floods in sections, it can also reduce considerable pressure on the middle and lower reaches.
"This reservoir can be used as a model project in the management of the Juma River. It will participate in the selection of high-quality projects. In addition, I will organize some townships to hold an on-site meeting here."
When the old village chief heard this, he felt happy. "We did a good job. The key is that Section Chief Chang designed it well and Squad Leader Xiao Wang and the others measured it well."
"I heard that you have opened three village-run enterprises? Let's go and take a look." Section Chief Chang was very concerned. When he came, he had already thought about what he must do for Nanshao Village this time he returned to his hometown.
"Yes, the quarry is too far away. It's still behind the mountain to the west. The sand quarry and the cement products factory are in the north of the village. However, the equipment of the cement products factory will be brought back soon, and our technician training will be completed soon. "According to the design, the sand and gravel waste can be used to produce one million cement bricks and 50,000 to 100,000 cement pipes per year, including other products."
"Oh, this is serious. Where is your sand?"
"My sand is mainly fine sand from the Qinghe River. In addition to my own use every year, I can supply another 200,000 cubic meters without any problem."
"Old village chief, you are amazing." Section Chief Chang Gaofeng praised.
"Well, I have to thank Professor Wen and Squad Leader Xiao Wang of the People's Liberation Army. Without their guidance, we wouldn't have had such courage."
Yes, Professor Wen is a witness and practitioner of this matter. At this time, he was chatting with Dong Pianfang next to him. The main thing was to help him test the small courtyard with instruments, and to test the water content of the ancient well when he returned to Jinmen. But Dong Pianfang was in a hurry to go on a business trip. The two of them discussed these matters and planned to do it after returning.
Hearing the praise from the old village chief, Professor Wen smiled, "The key is the support of Section Chief Chang. The 50,000 yuan from the reservoir is not much, but at the most difficult moment for the village, it is a timely help, just like the old Dong borrowed it." It’s like giving 150,000 yuan to the village to set up a factory.”
"Ah, Mr. Dong is so rich!"
"Old Dong has sold all the treasures left behind by his ancestors." The old village chief interjected.
Section Chief Chang was quite surprised when he heard this. "Old village chief, when I go back and schedule an on-site meeting, I will apply for some reward funds and on-site meeting funds." Everyone applauded together.
"Thank you, Chief Chang, for your help to Nanshao Village."
As they talked, they walked directly through the diversion dam on the north side and arrived at the stockyard behind the mountain in the north of the village. 40 wheelbarrows pushed it for several days, and the sand was already piled very high.
Section Chief Chang Gaofeng looked at it and saw that it was several thousand square meters. He stretched out his hand to grab a handful and kept nodding, "Good sand, good sand. How will you transport this sand in the future?"
"We are in contact with the People's Liberation Army's vehicle training team and ask them to help transport it."
"When will your cement hollow bricks be produced? Can I give you a month? If you can bring samples, I will order 50,000 bricks first. In addition, the same amount of sand will be 5,000 cubic meters."
Chang Gaofeng's words shocked everyone. I haven't seen the cement hollow bricks yet, but the order has been placed.
"That's great, Chief Chang, are you serious?" the old village chief asked with a trembling voice.
"There are no jokes in the army. It counts as the support and reward from the Water Conservancy Bureau of the Administrative Office." Section Chief Chang was also categorical. He returned to Nanshao Village today. He was already very excited. Seeing the changes in front of him, he could no longer hold back. My own ups and downs of mood.
If you are poor, you will want to change; if you are dry, you will want to change. In the entire administration, he had never seen such a courageous village, let alone a village that had suffered disaster and stood up again in just a few months.
Wake up your ears and listen to the sound of cheers.
Everyone was talking and laughing as they walked back. Section Chief Chang Gaofeng suddenly remembered something. He asked Dong Pianfang behind him: "Old Dong, how far has your donkey-raising plan progressed?"
"I'll set off tomorrow. I've already written letters to contact my friends in northwestern Shanxi. This time I'm going to sign a contract. First, I'll sign for 10,000 donkeys."
"Okay! You men in Nanshao Village are all men who refuse to admit defeat. Do you still need me to recommend it to Xu County?"
"That's really necessary. Chief Chang, please contact them for me. When I come back, I'll go and talk to them right away."
"OK."
Looking at Section Chief Chang Gaofeng, the old village chief, Professor Wen, and godfather Dong Pianfang, Wang Ke and all the soldiers in the reconnaissance team following him were extremely excited. Not only the people of Nanshao Village are generous, but also the selfless help of people like Section Chief Chang and Professor Wen.
Now, Nanshao Village can’t even take off if it doesn’t want to.
"Boom, bang!" One of the children in the village, who knew who, played a double kick at the right time, which shocked a few people, and then everyone laughed together.
