"so long?"

The leader was silent for a moment, and after a long while he said, "It seems that our preparations are still not enough!"

Ever since learning about the drought, the country has begun importing food through the ports, just in case, but now it seems that it will have to continue this year. He seemed to have thought of something and sighed.

"Oh! It looks like we're going to have a hard time next year!"

After discussing the matter of continuing to purchase grain with the leader, the leader talked about the current situation above, and finally reminded Zhou Tian: "Xiaotian, don't interfere in these matters. The main purpose of your institute now is to maintain stability and speed up production. As for the above matters, they will not involve the institute!"

"I understand, Leader!"

Zhou Tian nodded heavily. He knew that this was the importance the leadership attached to the institute.

After finishing the farm affairs, several experts from the Ministry of Agriculture escorted a lot of hybrid rice seeds and research materials and accompanied the leader out of the farm.

After watching the leader's car leave, Zhou Tian and his friends couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although the leader had been very kind just now, everyone was still very nervous when facing him.

"Dean, now that hybrid rice has been developed, should our farm start planting it next year?"

Back at the farm, Song Weiguo asked happily.

After all, if the farm does not grow such a high-yield crop as hybrid rice, he thinks it would be a waste of resources.

“No, we can plant rice, but we can’t plant only hybrid rice!”

Zhou Tian was silent for a while, then he looked up through the glass at the farm outside and said, "Although our farm has the convenience of water conservancy, it seems that the drought will continue this year. If we plant all hybrid rice, it is not a good time!"

"The most important thing for us now is to grow some drought-resistant crops, such as potatoes and sweet potatoes!"

"By the way, the farm's wells need to be deepened. Be careful that the water level drops and affects the grain production!"

"understand!"

Although Song Weiguo didn't understand, he still nodded. Professor Qiu Ying and several other professors did not object either.

"Well, it's getting late, I should go back too, everyone should go about their business!"

All the factories in the suburbs are managed by Song Weiguo alone, and there is a lot of work to do. As for the several agricultural experts, they also have other projects. Since the hybrid rice issue has come to an end, it is not appropriate for him to stay here.

Having said that, Zhou Tian stood up, accompanied by everyone, left the farm, and drove away from the farm under everyone's attention.

After returning to the institute, Zhou Tian dealt with some miscellaneous matters in the institute, and the music for the end of get off work began to sound.

Zhou Tian put down the documents he was processing, picked up his backpack, went downstairs, and drove back to Mianhua Hutong. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got off the car, he saw the postman standing at the door of Zhou's house with a letter.

"Xiao Wu, do you have a letter for me?"

When Zhou Tian saw the postman, he couldn't help but walk up and ask.

"President Zhou, there is indeed a letter for you, sent from Guangxi!"

The postman said as he handed the letter to Zhou Tian.

When Zhou Tian heard that it was sent from Guangxi, he immediately thought of Zhou Hao. He knew that the military region where Xiao Hao served was in Guangxi. He took the envelope and looked down. It was indeed sent by his second brother. A feeling of joy instantly surged in his heart.

"Xiao Wu, thank you so much. Why don't you come home and have some water?"

Suppressing his excitement, Zhou Tian invited.

"No, Dean Zhou, I have letters to deliver to other families, so I can't delay!"

Xiao Wu waved politely, got on his bike and left.

After watching Xiao Wu leave, Zhou Tian pushed open the door and walked in with the letter. As soon as he entered the backyard, he shouted, "Grandpa, grandma, mom, dad, wife, there's a letter from Xiao Hao!"

As soon as Zhou Tian finished speaking, his grandparents, mother-in-law and Shen Yulin walked out quickly from the main room.

"where is it?"

Looking at the excited faces of the family, Zhou Tian couldn't help but raise the letter in his hand.

"Come on, let's all go back to the house and I'll read it to you!"

As Zhou Tian spoke, he stepped forward to support his grandmother and led everyone back to the main room. At this time, the three children who were playing in the room, Xiao Zhiming, Xiao Zhiye and Zhou Zhinan, all stopped playing and looked at their father with childish eyes.

Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Tian opened the letter, took out the letter paper and unfolded it to read: "Dear grandparents, big brother, Aunt Li and sister-in-law, and a few little cuties, hello. In a blink of an eye, it has been half a year since I left home. In the past six months, I have been training and sweating with the soldiers in the barracks. This can be said to have given me a new experience!"

"Although I miss my elder brother, grandparents, sister-in-law, the little cuties, Xiaoyu and Xiaoting, I also know that without a country, there is no home. It is my honor to grow up with the soldiers and become a qualified soldier together!"

"Brother, perhaps I may fail to live up to your expectations of me. Just as you once told me that you wanted me to choose my own path, now my path has been chosen. I like the military camp, and I like everything here..."

As Zhou Tian recited each sentence in a rhythmic manner, his voice gradually began to drop. Finally, when he finished expressing Zhou Hao's belief, everyone fell silent.

Especially Zhou Zhinan and others who were already sensible, they couldn't help but show strange expressions on their faces.

"Dad, is the military camp that my second uncle described in the letter really that good?"

Zhou Zhiyi couldn't help but walk to his father's side and looked at him expectantly.

Facing the gazes of his children, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he nodded and said, "Yes, your second uncle is right. The military camp is very interesting, but also very tiring!"

"Dad, can I be a soldier when I grow up?"

After hearing what their father said, Zhou Zhinan and Zhou Zhiqu also stepped forward and asked.

"You can join the army, of course. But it's not that easy to join the army in the future. Look at your second uncle, he can only join the army after graduating from college. If you want to join the army in the future, you must study hard!"

Although Zhou Tian really wanted to say that being a soldier was hard and tiring, facing the innocent eyes of the children, how could he possibly tell the truth? He could only raise the threshold for joining the army a lot.

"Dad, we are not afraid of hardship or fatigue. We also want to be soldiers like our second uncle in the future!"

Unexpectedly, when Sanxiao heard this, a hint of determination flashed in his dark eyes!

"Okay, let's join the army. But if you want to join the army, you need to have a strong body. Starting tomorrow, Dad will teach you Xingyiquan. If you can stick to it, when you graduate from college, Dad will send you to join the army!
