174 I really do.

As winter approaches, there is not much to do and all experiments are basically stopped.

Only Xiaowei's group of college students has a lot to do every day because they have a specially built sun shed.

After receiving the reimbursement, Xiao Wei did not get back the money that Guixiu and Yijie had advanced. He started spending money again and asked the five people to hand over their wages. He expanded and upgraded the glass sun shed and added a firewood heating device.

Yes, at that time there were only plastic buckets, basins, etc., and there was no plastic film, so only glass could be used.

Xiao Wei certainly knew that this thing was too expensive and it would be difficult to promote it on a large scale within ten years.

However, it is just a gimmick. It is just to show off the superior momentum to prove that you are serious about scientific research.

At the very least, there is no need to worry about the various fruits and vegetables of three or five groups, and it is easy to exchange some fish, shrimps, etc. with the aquatic group.

The other four groups were naturally jealous, and they came to the team leader for the sixth time, asking him to assign them work.

After all, I am a salaried scientific researcher, how can I not have a job?

It is especially uncomfortable when others are busy and laughing while you can only stand on the sidelines and watch.

The team leader finally said slowly: "It's not that there is no work, I'm just worried that you can't do it."

"You say."

"As you know, the four college students have traveled to several provinces and cities and bought a lot of seeds. We need a lot of places to conduct experiments. There are still hundreds of acres of wasteland in the southeast corner that have not been developed. Let's use this winter to reclaim it."

"Shouldn't the city assign nearby migrant workers to do this kind of thing?"

"If you don't want to do it, then just take a rest."

Unexpectedly, these pampered college students took the lead in doing it. Xiao Wei took the planning map in a serious manner and directed the measurement and marking of where to dig ditches, where to create high ground to cultivate new varieties of sweet potatoes and corn, and where to build lotus ponds and rice.

The girls and boys were ready to go, took off their coats, put on high boots, and started digging.

More than 50 people from the four groups could no longer sit still and left the stage one after another.

The last dozen or so who were slow to work were stopped by the team leader: "You are not suitable for this kind of work. Go back and ask the farm manager to reassign you work. We don't need you in the agricultural team."

Among them, two team leaders changed their expressions immediately, but dared not say anything. They went to the farm management committee to reason with them in a huff.

In this era where cadres are called upon to lead by example and work hard, how can these people possibly be reasonable?

Except for three people who got in through the backdoor, all the others were accused of being passive and slacking and were driven out of the farm.

Then those who were sneaky and cunning were eliminated one by one.

Since there were not enough people, we recruited a dozen more students from Haicheng and Xi County.

Biyu originally wanted to join, but was rejected by Xiaowei, who told her to just manage the school garment factory honestly and said that she would return to the factory sooner or later.

"But my parents want me to go to the Propaganda Department."

"I suggest you don't go. That's not the place for you to hang out."

"Okay. I'll listen to you."

Currently, most of the people in the agricultural group were born in cities and have seldom done farm work. Anyway, there is no rush. Just follow Xiaowei's plan and do it slowly.

Fortunately, not only is the salary high, the food is also good, and everyone is working hard.

Although Xiao Wei is only a team member, she can issue orders. She follows the principle of slow work and fine work. She doesn't need to do things quickly, but she must meet the requirements.

Compared with the outside world, this place is both a cage and a paradise.

Xiao Wei forbade anyone to go out, and she took the lead in enforcing it.

Various rumors still came in, and the situation seemed to be worse than what he had experienced.

Thefts on the farm became more and more frequent, leading to nearby residents breaking through the bamboo fence during the day and running in to loot vegetables, radishes, chickens, ducks, etc.

The city had to send out ten soldiers armed with live ammunition to defend the area.

Preventing thieves has become the biggest workload of the farm.

Meetings were held more frequently. One day, the team leader came back to discuss with Xiao Wei: "The farm is planning to recruit migrant workers from nearby to reclaim the wasteland. What do you think?"

Xiao Wei objected flatly: "I don't agree."

"The head of a nearby village sat in his office and refused to leave, saying that as long as we provide a meal, it would be fine because their canteen is running out of food."

"What does that have to do with us? Are they blind to what will happen after the summer? Didn't they think about it when they paid the public grain?"

"What the farm manager meant was that the nearby farmers contributed a lot to the construction of this farm. If we refuse, there will probably be trouble."

"Go and get our group's food and oil plan for next month now. As for the rest, let them do whatever they want. We don't need to worry about it."

"Okay. We can't stop the decision from above, so we just need to do our part."

The next day, more than a hundred men, women, young and old flocked to the wasteland. Xiao Wei saw that they had difficulty walking and working was a joke.

They didn't really want to work, but were looking for food everywhere, such as reed roots, water chestnuts and the like, which they rushed to put into their mouths.

Xiao Wei simply called back everyone in the group, closed the gate, and entertained himself, letting those people do whatever they wanted.

Soon gunshots were heard, and there seemed to be looting, and all kinds of shouting and cursing were heard one after another.

Guixiu hugged Xiaowei and kissed him: "Now I understand why you insisted on building this independent yard as a dormitory."

The team leader sighed, "Fortunately, I followed Xiao Wei's instructions the day before yesterday and pulled back the plan for next month."

Mao Tongxian cursed: "Xiao Wei is not a human being at all. I'm going to cry for a while, don't stop me."

Xiao Wei laughed and scolded: "Why are you in such a hurry? This is just the beginning. You will cry someday."

As he was speaking, shouts were heard in the distance, as if countless people were rushing into the farm.

Gunshots rang out one after another, and the shouting and crying became louder and louder, spreading everywhere.

Soon someone banged on the gate and said, "Come out quickly! The people nearby are trying to grab food. The manager wants us to protect the granary together. Otherwise, we will have nothing to eat."

Xiao Wei yelled, "Why are you making so much noise? The child is sleeping. Don't scare him."

Guixiu called out, "You go first, we'll be there soon."

Not long after, there were deafening cries from the Supply Department, and it was obvious that the granary was no longer safe.

Seeing everyone looking at each other with worry on their faces, Xiao Wei chuckled: "Why are you so nervous? It has nothing to do with us."

Luzhu almost cried again: "Can you be serious? What if those people rush over here?"

Xiao Wei smiled faintly and said, "What else can I do? If I see a Buddha, I burn incense. If I see a thief, I pull out my gun."

The team leader said unhappily, "What time is it? You still have the heart to joke around."

Xiao Wei looked confused: "I'm telling the truth, I'm not kidding."

The team leader almost fainted: "Then do you have a gun?"

Xiao Wei continued to act cute: "Yes, yes."

Gui Xiu cursed: "Only men have guns, you have nothing."

Xiao Wei blinked her eyes and said innocently but seriously, "I'm not lying to you. I really have it."

Luzhu was both angry and amused: "Then take it out and let us see it."

At this moment, there was a loud shout outside, and someone shouted: "There must be food here, break the door open quickly."

"We were a step late, and Beicun took everything away."
