Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

The next morning, the sun shone on the drying yard, and the golden waves of wheat swayed in the wind, like a dazzling ocean. As the last bag of wheat was slowly pushed into the warehouse, the entire drying yard seemed empty and quiet. Zhang Zili stood aside, looking at the busy workers and the piles of wheat bags with excitement, his eyes flashing with excitement.

He walked quickly to He Yuzhu's side, and said in a voice that trembled with joy: "Deputy Director He, do you know? The wheat production this year has finally been calculated! Our farm actually harvested a total of 326,750,000 catties of wheat this year! This is a full 6,750,000 catties more than the previous estimate!"

He Yuzhu smiled with satisfaction when he heard the number, but soon regained his composure. He nodded slightly, expressing his approval, and commented: "Well, it is indeed a good result! Such a high yield is already quite impressive, but in my opinion, our land still has great growth potential. As long as the method is appropriate and the management is meticulous, it should not be difficult to exceed 700 kilograms per mu in the future."

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Zhang Zili was immediately cheered up and quickly responded: "You are right, Deputy Director He! We will definitely redouble our efforts and continue to explore new planting techniques and management models, and strive to achieve the ambitious goal of 700 kilograms per mu as soon as possible!"

He Yuzhu patted Zhang Zili on the shoulder and said encouragingly, "Very good. With your positive and enterprising attitude, I believe our farm will be able to achieve greater success in the future. But for now, the work at the First Farm can be slowed down a bit. Let the workers have a good rest for a day. They have been too hard recently. Then the day after tomorrow we will have to set off for the Second Farm's station to start the construction work there."

Zhang Zili nodded seriously and said, "I understand, Deputy Director He. While the weather is still warm, we must hurry up and build the living quarters for the workers at the second farm before winter. This way, when we plant next spring, everyone will be able to live comfortably in houses and no longer have to endure the harsh living conditions of tents."

"By the way, after the wheat harvest on the farm, there is a lot of wheat straw left! It would be a shame and a waste of resources if it were just piled up there and left unattended! So I was thinking, maybe I can go and negotiate with the nearby herdsmen to see if we can use our large amount of wheat straw to exchange for some cattle and sheep from the farmers."

"In this way, we can make reasonable use of the wheat straw that might have been discarded, and at the same time build our own breeding farm. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone! And once the breeding farm is successfully established, the wheat straw will have a good place to go and can be fully consumed."

"Yes, you are absolutely right! We should hurry up and build the breeding farm. Next month, the several thousand acres of corn planted on our farm will be harvested, and they will serve as high-quality feed for the sheep. But even with the corn that will be harvested, I am afraid we will still have some wheat straw left over!"

"If we really can't use up all the wheat straw, then we can be generous and give some to the herders around us. Of course, if we can't give it all away, then we have no choice but to burn it as fuel."

"Also, when you go to the herdsmen to exchange lambs, don't forget to bring the 35 yellow sheepskins we peeled off yesterday! Ask them to help process them and make them into warm and comfortable sheepskin coats. In the future, when our security team members wear them during night patrols, they will no longer be afraid of the biting cold night wind."

"Oh, Deputy Director He, I have to say that you are so thoughtful and meticulous in considering things! You can think of everything in advance and arrange it properly. We feel very at ease working with you!" Zhang Zili gave He Yuzhu a small compliment.

"Okay, I have to go to your office and call Minister Wang of the Ministry of Agriculture and Reclamation to report on our farm's wheat harvest. Minister Wang has always been concerned about our farm's wheat harvest!"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly and walked towards Zhang Ziling's office. Zhang Ziling followed closely behind He Yuzhu and walked towards the office together.
