"In those days, living conditions were very difficult. Maybe now you think that being able to afford seafood is considered a good living condition, but in fact, no one ate this kind of seafood at that time. And all the good seafood was sold, and the ones that remained were not They were all defective products, smelly fish and rotten shrimps. Each family took some of these things back and cooked them, without any oil or water.
So I spent a week at school eating steamed buns, pickled vegetables, and sand tea sauce. Naturally, what I looked forward to most was the Buddha Jumping Over the Wall made by my mother.
It's a pity that my mother passed away not long after the reform and opening up, and she never lived a good life. "Speaking of this, Zou Huanyi, an almost eighty-year-old old man, couldn't help but sigh. At his age, life and death have been decided. But he has not yet let go of his mother who died young.
Qin Xinghe said with a smile: "When we were in school, although the living conditions were better than when you were young, we didn't dare to expect fish, shrimps and seafood. We might only have one or two hairtails to eat and drink during the holidays. Seaweed soup and so on. As for abalone, sea cucumber, scallops and lobster, I only had it after working for several years."
Hearing Qin Xinghe's words, Zou Huanyi also recovered from his sighs, and then smiled at Qin Xinghe and Wu Hao and said: "In our time, there were a lot of seafood and little food. You can't stand it just eating seafood, so you have to eat Food. Fishermen use seafood, fish, shrimp, and seafood to exchange for food. It takes more than ten kilograms of fish and shrimp to exchange for one kilogram of food. As for abalone, sea cucumbers, etc., no one eats them at all."
Seeing the puzzled and curious look on Wu Hao's face, Zou Huanyi smiled and said: "You guys have not experienced that era. Food was very scarce in that era, so it was very precious. Although fish, shrimp and seafood are more expensive than food now, It was very cheap at that time and was something the poor people ate.
And, more importantly, food can be stored, but fish and shrimp cannot be stored. In addition to drying some fresh dried fish, there is also shrimp skin and kelp.
At that time, what we often ate was to cook a pot of white porridge or batter, put a little salted fish in it, and that was a meal.
So, things are really getting better now, and we all need to cherish this good era. "
Qin Xinghe smiled, and then continued what Zou Huanyi said: "The only things we didn't eat in the winter when we were in school were stick noodle steamed buns, sorghum noodle steamed buns, and wheat-skin noodle steamed buns, and then sauerkraut, Chinese cabbage, or a fried Carrot slices, cornmeal and sweet potato porridge.
Eating this all winter, it really makes people feel bitter in their stomachs when they see these. "
Haha, Wu Hao smiled. Although he knew that the living conditions were difficult at that time, when he heard what the two said, he just felt it was novel and didn't experience much.
The two talked for a few more words, and Qin Xinghe then changed the topic to Wu Hao: "How are you preparing for the first flight of your manned spacecraft next year?"
Hearing Qin Xinghe suddenly ask this, Wu Hao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "It's already in progress. The development project of the Walker 4 manned spacecraft has been started. The overall progress is rapid. The supporting Jianmu 7 has been modified to be recyclable. The launch vehicle has also begun manufacturing, and there should be no problem in catching up with the launch window in the middle of next year."
Hearing Wu Hao's words, Zou Huanyi also showed an interested look: "So, you plan to launch the first manned spacecraft in June or July next year."
Wu Hao smiled and paused: "That's the plan. We have confirmed with the manned engineering department and Bureau Qin that next year's Nanhai Space Manned Launch Site will only have a free launch window in June and July. If you miss this If there is a launch window, then we can only postpone it until next winter.”
Qin Xinghe on the side nodded and explained along with Wu Hao's words: "Next year is a big year for space, and the launch plan is very intensive, so there are not many free windows.
Originally, we planned to use the free time in June and July for the entire team to repair. If you take advantage of it now, then the launch team will probably have to wait until the end of the year to rest. "
Hearing Qin Xinghe's words, Wu Hao felt a little embarrassed and said, "Thank you for your hard work. We still feel sorry for this."
Qin Xinghe waved his hand after hearing this: "This is their job, and it is also their responsibility, and they should bear it. If you feel sorry in your heart, just give them your condolences when the time comes.
Besides, you are also contributing to our country's aerospace industry, and we should support it. If you really want to express your gratitude, then complete this launch mission and send your spacecraft carrying astronauts to space safely and smoothly. This is the greatest reward for all the hard workers. "
Zou Huanyi nodded and then asked Wu Hao: "Have the astronauts confirmed it? Who do you plan to send to space for the first manned flight?"
Hearing Zou Huanyi's question, Wu Hao looked at Qin Xinghe with a smile and said: "As for astronauts, we still hope that our astronauts can join this project and become the first batch of astronauts to ride on this manned spacecraft. "
Qin Xinghe naturally understood what Wu Hao was thinking. He put down his chopsticks, picked up a napkin, wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "Didn't I tell you this? It's still under study. Although overall, there is no problem, but There are still some opinions and concerns. After all, many people are still skeptical about the reliability and safety of your commercial manned spacecraft.
Therefore, there is still a lot of opposition to allowing astronauts to participate in the first flight of this manned spacecraft.
Of course, as long as your Walker 3 unmanned experimental spacecraft can successfully complete the docking and replenishment of the space station and return to Earth safely. Then I think there is no problem with your request. After all, in this regard, the leaders above have also expressed their support for the development of your manned space project.
And as far as astronauts are concerned, everyone is very enthusiastic about taking our country's first commercial manned spacecraft into space. "
Having said this, Qin Xinghe smiled at Wu Hao and said: "I can give you another piece of good news. If your commercial manned spacecraft is confirmed to be safe and reliable, then we may carry some cargo and people to and from the space station in the future. The task is left to you."
"Really, this is great." Wu Hao couldn't help but get excited. This was the goal he had been looking forward to pursuing, but he didn't expect Qin Xinghe to take the initiative to say it.
Seeing Wu Hao's excitement, Qin Xinghe smiled and nodded and confirmed: "Of course it is true, the premise is that your manned spacecraft must be safe and reliable, otherwise everything will be in vain."
Having said this, Qin Xinghe paused, glanced at Wu Hao and then continued: "The reason why I entrust you with this part of the cargo transportation and manned round trip tasks is of course to support your manned spacecraft project. On the other hand, it is also to reduce transportation costs. After all, your launch vehicles and manned spacecraft are reusable, so the cost is naturally much cheaper."
