At this time, maybe Zhou Yang can understand his father's dilemma in the future!
Men are "difficult" people. They often have to face various choices. If they are not careful, they will leave lifelong regrets.
"Dad, do you want to stay in the fertilizer factory?"
"No, I just don't want the fertilizer plant's phosphate fertilizer research plan to be shelved. This will not only have a major impact on the Fengxian Fertilizer Plant, but will also have a major impact on our country's agricultural development!" Zhou Yawen said solemnly.
Zhou Yang naturally knows the importance of phosphate fertilizer to a country's agricultural development, but our country's food situation is not particularly optimistic, and the people can only barely solve the problem of food and clothing.
If cheap phosphate fertilizer can be developed now, it will definitely promote the development of agriculture and improve the situation of food shortage.
"Then how long do you expect it will take to master those technologies?" Zhou Yang asked immediately.
"The laboratory development can be almost completed within half a year. If we want to achieve mass production, it will take at least a year!" Zhou Yawen replied.
"That's it. Then I have two suggestions. Do you want to listen to them?" Zhou Yang said.
"Say! It's already this time, why bother?"
"Haha, the first suggestion is that you apply to your superiors, return to the capital after a year, and then use this year to concentrate on research!"
Then Zhou Yang continued: "The second suggestion is that you discuss with Director Zhang, take those materials back to Beijing University for research, and then guide their fertilizer factory after the results are produced!"
The father frowned and said, "I have thought about what you said, but it doesn't seem to work!"
"Why?"
"The comrades in the working group have said that they will give me one month to consider. If I agree to go back, the position of dean of the Department of Chemistry will still be reserved for me. If I cannot go back for the time being, then the position of dean of the department will be given to someone else. There may not be a place for me when I go back!"
Then Zhou Yawen continued: "As for bringing the data back to the capital for research, even if Director Zhang agrees, it will not work. If mass production in the factory cannot be achieved, it is meaningless to do it in the laboratory alone. Therefore, our current research has always been based on the fertilizer factory. , it’s unrealistic to take it back and study it!!”
"You damn old man..."
Seeing that his mother was showing signs of getting angry again, Zhou Yang hurriedly said: "Mom, please don't be impatient!"
Then, he said to his father: "How about this? Let my mother go back first, and you can stay in the fertilizer factory and continue your research!"
Before he finished speaking, his mother frowned and said, "Then your father's department chair will be gone?"
"It's gone. My dad was already the head of the department six years ago. Now he's still the head of the department. What's the point?"
Then Zhou Yang continued: "After my father makes an academic breakthrough, what will a department chair mean?"
To be honest, Zhou Yang, the rotten department head, really didn't pay much attention to him.
That old guy Shen Zhenguo can be the vice principal, but his father can only continue to be the head of the department when he returns, as if it's a rare thing!
Besides, if my father could really produce phosphate fertilizer in China in advance, it would be a great achievement.
At that time, the super talents will definitely become the focus of attention from above. Various fertilizer factories and universities are vying to attract super talents. It is not too much to get a principal or vice principal!
Zhou Yawen thought about it carefully and said, "This is a solution!"
"Then what will you do if I go back?"
"I'm fifty years old, can't I still take care of myself?" Zhou Yawen frowned.
"Humph, let's see what you can do...forget it, if you don't go back, I won't go back either!" Ye Lifang finally chose to compromise.
After experiencing so many things, she also looked away. As long as the family was safe, nothing else mattered.
"Mom, I think you should go back!" Zhou Yang said.
"Why?"
"First, you have to go back and get our ancestral home back. Our family has a large courtyard with three entrances. Those people may not be willing to return it..."
Before she finished speaking, her mother stared and said, "That's okay, that's our ancestral home, we can't let them occupy it and not give it back!"
"Yes, if they don't pay back, you can go to the relevant departments to make trouble. It's not convenient for me and my dad to come forward, but you are not afraid!"
Then Zhou Yang continued: "The other thing is, now that our family's affairs have come to an end, my brother and my sister-in-law will be back soon. You go back and clean up their place first. Don't let my sister-in-law think that our Zhou Yang The family has lost its etiquette!”
"You're right, it's just your dad..."
"Don't worry about my dad, I will visit him every now and then!" Zhou Yang said.
"That's okay too!"
After saying these things, the conversation is over.
Later, Zhou Yang found a new quilt from the big red cabinet and sent his father to the next room.
And he stayed in the main house with Li Youwei, his mother and Bao'er...
...
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Zhou Yang was woken up by the chattering sound coming from outside the house!
I looked at the clock on the wall and saw it was already past eight o'clock.
Looking at the kang again, Li Youwei and her mother were already up. Even Bao'er was dressed and sitting on the bed playing with the candies and peanuts in his hands.
Zhou Yang immediately got up from the bed and quickly put on his clothes.
When he came outside the house, Zhou Yang saw his father-in-law coming over, holding a bucket full of tofu in his hand.
Seeing these steaming tofu, Zhou Yang couldn't help but swallowed.
It is a tradition in the village to grind tofu on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month. These days, the tofu is usually grinded at home.
The method is also relatively simple, and most people in the village can do it.
I remember that every year when grinding tofu, Li Youwei would go to the old house to help, if for no other reason than to bring him a bowl of tofu.
This thing is Zhou Yang's favorite. Add a few drops of sesame oil and pour some soy sauce into it, and the fragrance will come out immediately.
"Dad, is the old man grinding tofu?"
"Well, I sharpened it early in the morning!"
Then, Li Fengnian pointed to an enamel basin with a lid next to him and said, "There is tofu noodle in it. I know you like it, so I brought some over!"
After hearing this, Zhou Yang was suddenly moved.
Seeing that my father-in-law's eyes were bloodshot and he obviously hadn't had a good rest, he immediately said, "Dad, please wait a moment, I have something to tell you!"
"What's going on?"
"Let's go inside and talk!"
The father-in-law came to the back room and sat astride the edge of the kang. He took out the dry tobacco pot out of habit and prepared to light a pot.
Zhou Yang immediately took out two Qingcheng cigarettes from the big red cabinet and handed them over: "Dad, smoke this!"
"Spending money indiscriminately again!"
Zhou Yang smiled and did not explain, but said: "Dad, I bought some clothes for you and my mother, and some cigarettes and alcohol. You can take them back later!"
"OK!"
Li Fengnian did not refuse and knew his son-in-law's character.
I know that Zhou Yang is a man of his own opinion, and even eight cows can't take back what he has decided.
Although he is the father-in-law, he can't control him.
"You kid won't just tell me about this, will you?"
"No, I just want to tell you about building a laboratory in the village!" Zhou Yang said.
"laboratory?"
"Well, the superiors are planning to build a large laboratory in our village. I can't reveal too much about the specifics, but it requires full cooperation from the village and even the commune." Zhou Yang said.
"No problem, this is what it should be!" Li Fengnian said.
Then Zhou Yang continued: "As expected, engineering troops will be stationed in our village in a day or two. Please give the community members and cadres in the village some peace of mind and say that they are people sent by the Provincial Agriculture and Animal Husbandry College to help us rebuild our village." Planning laboratory!”
"Originally, Wang Ping should be the one to talk about this matter, but he doesn't have enough prestige, so I have to trouble you about this matter!"
"OK!"
Later, Li Fengnian asked again: "I heard that you bought a TV set for the village?"
"Well, if we don't do it, the villagers will crowd here every day, which will affect their lives too much!" Zhou Yang said.
"I'll hold a meeting for the members that night, and I'll talk to them about this then!"
"OK!"
