The Zhao Village brigade is holding a grand gathering to celebrate the harvest. On the rostrum are leaders from the provincial acceptance team and Guangming County. Zhao Village cadres are instructing countless members to cut the wheat.

Sun Jinbiao, the leader of the investigation team, stared at this farce with a half-smile but not a smile. He was born as a poor farmer and knew the yields per mu of various food crops. This investigation was actually just a formality.

Countless straws were piled up in the threshing floor. Liu Yue'e stood in the corner and watched coldly. Xue Dingshan, the instigator, blushed with excitement.

The one-acre wheat field was quickly harvested. Zhao Tiandian walked up to Sun Jinbiao and nodded, "The harvest is complete, please give instructions from Comrade Sun."

"Let's start threshing. Yesterday I saw the high-yielding corn of the Liu Village brigade, and today I saw the high-yielding wheat of your brigade." Sun Jinbiao said lightly.

"Comrades are vigorously engaged in production." Zhao Tian gave orders at the top of his voice, and the members performed their duties to thresh the wheat.

The commune members first used tools to spread the wheat straw flat on the threshing floor, and used oxen and donkeys to pull stone rollers to crush it over and over again, using pressure and friction to remove the hulls.

The cattle and donkeys left the farm to rest in the shade of the trees. The members then used tools to clean up the broken straw and pile it aside, and then piled up the remaining bran-wheat mixture.

The whole process lasted for more than three hours. There were still two-thirds of the wheat straw in the yard. Several old farmers were holding wooden "shovels" and prepared to use the wind to separate the chaff and wheat.

"Wait before threshing, and crush the remaining wheat straw first." Sun Jinbiao put down the order in his hand.

"Follow Leader Sun's instructions and deal with all the wheat straw first," Secretary Li of Guangming Commune added.

Zhao Tian immediately led the members to clean up the wheat field. Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd, and Xue Ming came on stage pulling a pedal thresher.

He put down the cart and bowed, and the leaders on the platform introduced themselves, "Hello, leaders, I am Xue Ming, a member of the Zhaocun Brigade. I invented a threshing machine that is 10 times faster than the traditional threshing method."

The threshing floor was silent for a moment. Xue Ming raised his voice and said loudly, "Dear leaders, the Zhaocun Brigade did not grow wheat with a yield of [-] kilograms per mu. The wheat straw here is actually the wheat straw of the whole village gathered together."

"You fart!" Xue Dingshan rushed over and pushed Xue Ming, "Come and help, we can't let him discredit the team."

The brigade cadres were silent, Party Secretary Zhao Tian showed confusion on his face, and Xue Dingshan jumped anxiously, "Xu Dawei brings your people here."

Xu Dawei is the captain of the Zhao village militia team. He gritted his teeth and summoned four militiamen to prepare to control Xue Ming.

Liu Yue'e in the crowd couldn't hold back any longer, so she ran over and opened her arms to stop them, "Don't touch my son!"

He turned around and bit Xue Dingshan's hand. The pain made him scream and let go of Xue Ming.

Liu Yue'e turned to face the rostrum and shouted loudly, "My son didn't lie. It was just that they concentrated wheat straw from other places into one acre of land."

"You fart!" Xue Dingshan was so angry that he stretched out his hand to stop Liu Yue'e's mouth, but Xue Ming kicked him to the ground.

The matter has become serious. Zhao Tian hurriedly led people to surround Liu Yue'e and her son. The cadres of Guangming Commune were so anxious that they slammed the table. Sun Jinbiao, the leader of the investigation team, looked at everything in front of him coldly.

Suddenly, a gunshot shocked everyone, and the scene was silent again. Zhao Qinghong walked into the crowd holding a pistol, followed by two girls, Li Chuanying and Zhao Xue.

"Comrade Qinghong, put your gun away. You are a police officer and you can't fire random warning shots." Sun Jinbiao still looked calm. He had seen this kind of scene many times.

"Comrade Sun asked Xiao Xue to finish. If the threshing machine he invented can really increase the threshing speed by 20 times, you don't need me to tell you which one is more important." Zhao Qinghong smiled and put away the weapon.

"Try the effect before we see it." Sun Jinbiao pointed at the pile of wheat straw on the threshing floor and said that efficient threshing tools are politically correct and have more publicity value than an output of [-] kilograms per mu.

There was no need to waste words in this situation. Xue Ming and Zhao Qinghong lifted the thresher down together, and Li Chuanying quickly sorted out a bundle of wheat straw and handed it to him.

He pressed the pedal to drive the toothed drum in the machine. The wheat ears rubbed against the high-speed rotating drum. The threshing was completed in less than half a minute. Li Chuanying immediately handed him the second bundle.

After taking off the fifth bundle, Liu Yue'e and Zhao Xue helped bundle it. Zhao Qinghong patted Xue Ming on the shoulder and said, "Take a rest and let me do it."

Xue Ming gave him his seat and asked them to pause when the machine barn was filled with wheat chaff. Then he opened the barn door and poured out the wheat chaff.

Zhao Tian came over to check immediately and found that the wheat chaff produced by the machine was cleaner than that produced by the stone roller. He was stunned.

Team leader Sun Yuhou also came over to study it. He held a handful of wheat chaff and said loudly, "Secretary Li, come here and check it out. This machine really works."

All the leaders on the rostrum came to watch. Zhao Tian immediately arranged for several strong men to take turns pedaling the thresher. Xue Ming stood aside and guided them in their work.

Soon all the wheat straw in the threshing floor was threshed. A group of people surrounded the threshing machine. Leaders from all walks of life lay on the threshing machine to study its structure.

Xue Ming looked at his watch and said, "It only took forty minutes. Ten times faster may be a bit exaggerated, but it's almost seven or eight times faster."

"It's not an exaggeration, not an exaggeration at all." Sun Jinbiao was no longer calm, "Comrade Xue Ming, did you really invent this threshing machine? Do you have any drawings?"

"I was messing around in my free time. I can't draw blueprints." Xue Ming gave Li Chuanying a wink and asked her to study the machine structure. She is a master of drawing blueprints.

"This is a good thing. If it can be promoted nationwide, it can greatly improve production efficiency. Comrade, this is amazing." Sun Jinbiao immediately arranged for people to protect the machine.

After finishing the work, he arranged for the leaders of Guangming County to go to the county to invite professionals to study and draw the design drawings. "Comrade Xue Ming, I will definitely report to the provincial agricultural department to ask for your credit."

Xue Ming doesn’t think he is great, because the pedal thresher is the product of opening a blind box in space.It doesn't matter if he takes credit or not, the province will probably give him a certificate at most.

The main purpose is to expose the lies planned by Xue Dingshan. Until now, Xue Ming still can't figure out why Zhao Tian and others are colluding with Xue Dingshan. Don't they know the consequences of lying?

Standing in the crowd, Xue Dingshan gnashed his teeth with hatred and stared at Xue Ming quietly with resentful eyes, wishing he could eat his flesh and drink his blood.

"Lao Sun, remember to go to Xue Ming's house to find me after finishing his business. Today we shot a three hundred kilogram wild boar in the forest, and a piglet weighing more than ten kilograms." Zhao Qinghong said.

"Good guys, you're in for a treat tonight. I happen to have two bottles of Maotai in the car. Let's drink and eat meat tonight." Sun Jinbiao was in a good mood, holding Xue Ming's hand and laughing, "Comrade Xue, please trouble you."

"No trouble, all leaders are welcome to visit my home. I'll go back and prepare a few side dishes first." Xue Ming believes that it is necessary to eat well and entertain well.

After all, it was Sun Jinbiao who wrote the credit report for "inventing" the threshing machine. How much reward the province will give depends on how boastful Comrade Sun is in the report.
