Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Qiu Ming said this, his eyes full of undisguised regret.

"That's exactly what I'm curious about. I came back from studying abroad and don't know much about Chinese medicine. In my opinion, no matter whether it's Chinese or Western medicine, a good doctor is one who can cure the patient. But you, you obviously studied Chinese medicine, why didn't you express your attitude just now?"

Guan Shan blew out a smoke ring and asked with curiosity on his face.

"Well... Actually... Oh, forget it!"

Qiu Ming hesitated for a few times at first, but finally told his experience with a wry smile.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Guan Shan looked at him with a caring look as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person, and said, "I say, Lao Qiu, you come from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, but you actually hate traditional Chinese medicine. Who would believe this if it gets out? You... Oh, I really have nothing to say!"

Guan Shan looked at Qiu Ming and really didn't know how to complain.

The two chatted for a while and then left.

Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, many experts were sent to observe the lithography machine developed by Zhou Tian.

With the lithography machine, the integrated circuit technology of the entire institute has achieved a qualitative leap and entered a new stage.

In particular, Wu Lei, the person in charge of the electronics field, under the guidance of Zhou Tian and the help of the chaotic space, successfully achieved a breakthrough in the first generation of chips, allowing the domestic electronics industry to take a big step forward.

As the electronics industry achieved breakthroughs, other fields also made significant progress during this time.

The mechanical research that Jiang Long is in charge of has achieved the leap from manual to semi-automatic machine tools.

In terms of electromechanics, the institute successfully developed a new motor and engine, the power of which is even stronger than that of Red Star No. 1. Unfortunately, due to material limitations, it cannot be put into production for the time being and has to be put aside.

As the days passed, the research results of the institute continued to emerge like mushrooms after rain, but at the same time, the relationship between the institute and the Health Department became increasingly tense, and even reached the leadership.

However, the higher-ups have always maintained an ambiguous attitude towards this matter and have not made a clear statement, which made Zhou Tian feel more at ease.

In early October, buses and cars at the automobile factory were put into mass production, and the entire city of Beijing immediately began road reconstruction. In November, China's latest industrial report was officially released.

This year, due to the large-scale construction of oxygen top-blown converters, steel production reached 80 million tons, surpassing the big brother in one fell swoop and ranking second in the world. After this data was announced, the whole of China instantly set off a wave of celebration.

Countless people took to the streets, setting off fireworks to celebrate, and newspapers gave extensive coverage to the event.

In terms of grain production, with the large number of tractors put into use at the Sijiucheng Agricultural Machinery Factory, the national grain output increased by one third, from more than 700 billion jin to more than 100 million jin, and a bumper harvest was achieved across the country.

Amidst the prosperity of the whole country, China completed the First Five-Year Plan ahead of schedule and took the opportunity to propose the Second Five-Year Plan.

Zhou Tian sat in his office, looking at the newspapers full of reports praising his achievements, but a trace of worry arose in his heart.

As the time drew closer to 1958, he wondered whether the authorities would launch another "Great Steel-making" campaign.

You know, although this campaign did not last long, it caused a large number of farmers to abandon their crops during the busy farming season, delaying the farming season and significantly reducing grain production. Coupled with some natural disasters, it kicked off the three-year disaster.

Today, my country's steel production has surpassed that of the United Kingdom. If we set the goal of surpassing the United States this time, I am afraid that the harm caused by this movement will be more serious than in the previous life.

"It's time to prepare!"

Thinking of these terrible consequences, Zhou Tian decided to prepare for the rainy day and achieve self-sufficiency before the disaster occurs. To do this, the institute must have its own farm.

After thinking about it, he immediately took out a piece of paper and started writing a farm plan.

Although he was not sure whether doing so would make his superiors feel that he was not doing his job properly, the institute did have an agricultural research institute, and it was in line with the higher-ups' plan, so he probably wouldn't be too bothered by this convenience.

This time his plan is not limited to the plains, he also plans to try to cultivate terraces on the hilltops.

No matter what, there are still three years to go, and he believes that with the accumulation of the past few years, he can at least ensure that the institute can get through the three years of difficulties. If he waits until later to start preparations, he is worried that it will be too late.

After writing the plan, Zhou Tian immediately drove to Da Nei to report his ideas to his leader.

Sure enough, things turned out just as he expected. The leader did not object to the institute's application to establish its own farm and directly approved it.

After getting permission from the leader, the rest of the process went much more smoothly.

Zhou Tian returned to the research institute and immediately called together Zhang Mingzhi and five others to discuss the location and required area of ​​the farm.

Although Zhang Mingzhi and his five companions were not clear about the dean's purpose of building the farm, they did not raise any objections out of trust in the dean. After some discussion, they unanimously decided to build the farm in the wasteland to the west not far from the branch factory.

The reason why the wasteland was preserved was to consider expanding the scale of several branches in the future.

However, with the construction of a series of suburban areas in Changping and the adjustment of urban planning in the future, it is obviously no longer appropriate to expand westward. In particular, there are more and more buildings around, and unless these buildings are demolished, the workload is too large, so the only option is to reclaim this wasteland and transform it into farmland.

After all, no one expected that the suburbs of Changping would develop so rapidly in just one or two years.

You know, the area of ​​this wasteland is quite considerable, a full 400,000 mu, plus the surrounding hills, if all are reclaimed and fertilizers are added, theoretically it is enough to feed more than 300,000 people in the institute and their families. Of course, this is only the most ideal state.

After the meeting passed this decision, Zhou Tian naturally handed the matter over to Song Weiguo.

Then, he went to the Agricultural Research Institute where Professor Qiu Ying was in charge. Professor Qiu Ying had been at the institute for almost three months, and during this time, Zhou Tian had not disturbed her work.

Now that the institute has decided to set up a farm, the preparation of high-quality seeds is naturally a top priority. In this regard, no one in the institute is more proficient than Professor Qiu Ying and his team.

As soon as he walked to the door of the Agricultural Research Institute, he heard deafening cheers coming from inside.

"Great, we finally succeeded! Lao Qiu, you are amazing. The yield of this Red Star No. 1 wheat seems to be much higher than that of ordinary wheat. You have made a great contribution this time!"

An excited voice shouted inside.

"Yes, Professor Qiu, you are amazing!"

Excited voices echoed in the institute, which made Zhou Tian, ​​who had already arrived at the door, startled.

"What happened? What was successful? Was it Xiaomai?" Thinking of this, a trace of excitement flashed across his face. He immediately opened the door and asked inside: "What was successful?"
