They in the 70s

The arrival time of spring in northern Shaanxi varies from year to year, depending on climate change. If the warm wind from the south blows earlier, spring will come earlier.

The weather this year seems to be good. Just at the beginning of April, the weather has turned warm and spring has come early.

And with the spring breeze blowing, the new year's spring plowing will begin.

Years ago, Wu Changde listened to Lu Zhansheng's suggestion and planted [-]% of the land in the village into wheat. The wheat is growing very well, and the large green wheat seedlings make people feel bright.

Due to the abundant rain last year, the wheat grew well, and a lot of weeds grew in the field. The villagers weeded the weeds first, and by the way, used hoes to loosen the wheat field, so that the dusty winter soil could breathe.

Immediately after completion is the plowing.

In order to save Zheng Yan, all the cattle and donkeys in the village were sold. The villagers used manpower to pull the plow, which was not efficient, but only [-]% of the spring land was left. The vacant land was plowed in a short amount of time.

The weather is still relatively cool right now, and the irrigation of wheat is still a little earlier, so the busy spring plowing in previous years has been in full swing this year, and it has come to an end in less than four or five days.

As farmers, they feel at ease when they are idle during the slack season, but they feel restless when they are idle when they should be busy.

So, the villagers who were idle these days began to focus on Xia Shucheng's yard again.

In other words, after He Zhi started to join the camp of research and experiments, he originally said that the educated youths would study together, but he immersed himself in sorting out various materials, dismantling the formula left by Xia Shucheng, and re-blending the materials into The new type, the formula is refined and expanded into a new ratio.

After finishing this operation, other people couldn't understand it, and even Lu Zhansheng couldn't intervene.

There were no more dangerous situations like explosions, but it has been half a month, and there is still no news of the success of the research, and the villagers are inevitably a little anxious.

In terms of practical work, the villagers still trust Lu Zhansheng more, because Lu Zhansheng can do anything immediately, such as building a house, the guy built it within a few days after he finished talking, and the same thing about growing mushrooms. Let everyone eat it in a few days.

But it's been so long since He Zhi's research on this chemical fertilizer, let alone making it, they haven't even heard of the slightest progress.

As a result, many villagers began to suspect that He Zhi, the fertilizer for salinity control, should not be produced.

Wu Changde shares the same thoughts as everyone else, and also thinks that although He Zhi is good at culture, he may not be good at farming and working.

Early one morning, Wu Changde came to the courtyard of Xia Shucheng's house, and saw He Zhizheng standing in front of the house and frowning staring at the two big pits in the courtyard. Reassure the child.

"Comrade Xiaohe."

With his hands behind his back, Wu Changde tried his best to show his kind side: "It's fine if you can't make it, don't worry, our wheat grows well, and you won't be hungry if you save some food."

He Zhi glanced at him when he heard the words, then turned his head and continued to frown: "I was just wondering if I should transport these materials to the field."

"... "

Wu Changde was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up: "The research is done?"

He Zhi looked at him again: "Not sure, it needs to be evaluated after actual use in the field."

Wu Changde was stunned again, and then his expression darkened again: "When will that be?"

He Zhi said: "I'm not sure. After using it, you need to check the seedling rate. If there is no problem with the emergence of the seedlings, it depends on the growth status. If there is no problem in the growth, then it depends on the harvest ratio. It can only be determined after comparing it with the harvest of normal land in previous years."

Wu Changde: ...

Lu Zhansheng was packing up the materials left over from the experiment in the room at the moment, looking out from the window, seeing the wonderful expression on Wu Changde's face, he rolled forward and backward with a smile.

Recently, people from the village come to peek outside the small courtyard almost every day. They don't hide it, and they can clearly write whatever they think on their faces. Lu Zhansheng just thinks this group of people is very funny.

Lu Zhansheng has a very outgoing personality. He usually likes to bluff and do something. Whenever there is a little bit of progress, he will be very excited. When he is excited, he wants to share it and say it immediately. Not only can people know the progress clearly , I can still be happy with him, full of sense of participation.

But He Zhi is different. He Zhi is very calm, and he is very calm and flat when explaining every link. If you don’t ask specifically, you don’t know which step is a major breakthrough and which step is a success. It is very important, even if you want to be excited, you can't find a point where you can get excited.

Lu Zhansheng had no doubts. With He Zhi's calm and rigorous attitude, the crops would have already grown and harvested when the fertilizers produced by the research were used, and the villagers might not be able to realize that the research was completed after a while.

"The branch secretary."

Lu Zhansheng laughed enough, came out of the room, and placed a rectangular soil basket in front of Wu Changde: "Come and see what these are?"

Wu Changde looked down at a small piece of seedling in the basket: "Isn't this corn, sorghum, and peanuts?"

"Yes."

Lu Zhansheng said: "Take a look at how it looks?"

Wu Changde looked at it confidently again, and found that Ye Lumiao was strong: "It looks pretty good."

Lu Zhansheng asked again: "Then do you know where this soil was dug from?"

Hearing his question, Wu Changde thought about it for a while, and his eyes lit up again. He knew where the soil was, because Lu Zhan had asked him which piece of land in Chengdu had the worst salinity in his village a while ago. .

Lu Zhansheng laughed again, and then said directly to Wu Changde: "Secretary, please hurry up and inform everyone that Comrade He Zhi's research on the fertilizer for saline-alkali soil improvement has been successful. Please gather here after dinner." , this afternoon, let's sprinkle the fertilizer on the ground."

"Okay! I'll go right now!"

Wu Changde was immediately overjoyed, and after patting He Zhi's shoulder excitedly, he turned around and trotted out of the yard.

He Zhi seemed a little helpless, and turned to look at Lu Zhansheng: "What if it doesn't work?"

"... "

Lu Zhansheng was also a little helpless, he pulled the man over with a smile, and pinched his face: "The crops have grown, so what should I do?"

He Zhi: "That's only a small area, and it was cultivated in a controlled environment in our experiments, and it may have different reactions in a natural environment."

"You know it's 'possible,' too."

Lu Zhansheng said with a smile: "In the natural environment, there are too many 'maybe' and 'what if'. If you worry about each one, you will die of worry."

He Zhi pursed his mouth.

Lu Zhansheng added: "Now we are focusing on the matter of fertilizers. Regardless of other factors in the future, it will be done if it is completed now. The whole village is looking forward to this result. We should directly Tell everyone to make them happy, so that they will feel that there is hope and hope, haven't you noticed, in fact, these people in the village live with hope."

He Zhi raised his head slightly and looked at him without blinking for a long time.

Lu Zhansheng squeezed his face again: "What's the matter, am I wrong?"

He Zhi shook his head: "No."

Lu Zhansheng said, "Then why are you looking at me like that?"

"It's nothing." The corners of He Zhi's lips curled up: "I just think your hairstyle looks better the more you look."

"... "

Lu Zhansheng didn't know why this person changed the subject inexplicably, but he was still very happy to be praised. He immediately smiled and asked, "How good-looking is it?"

He Zhi smiled again, didn't speak, but looked into his eyes and wrote: I want to kiss you so nicely.

"... "

Feeling being teased, Lu Zhansheng licked his lips, then immediately grabbed him and dragged him into the room.

After dinner in the afternoon, the villagers gathered at Xia Shucheng's yard after receiving the notice. Some were carrying shovels and some were carrying baskets. Everyone was very excited and excited.

Two large pits were dug in the yard of Xia Shucheng's house, and in the pits were the fertilizer materials fermented by He Zhi during this period.

Lu Zhansheng and Song Jian took the lead, and the whole village went into battle together, and began to pick up the chemical fertilizers in batches and quantities to the dozen or so saline-alkali lands they had planned in advance.

Fertilize one day, water another day, and let it dry.

During this time, the villagers turned their heads to irrigate the wheat fields, while He Zhi and the others were busy testing the progress of the new land treatment.

He Zhi used the remaining chemical materials to make a lot of test strips for salinity detection, and tested them every day by time period, region, and interval until the value was stable for five consecutive days, which means that the governance of the new land has reached a certain level , the next step of sowing and raising seedlings can be carried out.

The new land was put into use, just in time for the remaining spring plowing land in the village to start sowing, causing the previously idle spring plowing work to suddenly become busier than in previous years.

But everyone is very busy.

Watching the large wheat fields that have grown up and the seeds sown, the villagers are full of hope and energy, and excitedly sang to each other in the fields, singing Xintianyou, which has been passed down from generation to generation.

Lu Zhansheng likes to listen, and also likes to sing. After arriving here, he has gradually learned a lot of Xintianyou's tunes. When everyone is sweating with hoes, he can also sing a few lines correctly.

Sometimes I sing beautifully, and after work at night, the land war business is still unfinished, and I often have to sing for a while after eating and enjoying the cool in front of the hut.

It's just that every time at the end, he would return to his original intention of loving singing and sing He Zhi's favorite song "Hawthorn Tree".

When he sang, He Zhi hugged Xiao Chunsheng and listened beside him. The family of three sat next to the hawthorn tree in front of their hut.

And the hawthorn tree that Lu Zhansheng personally planted on that mountain has successfully grown buds after being baptized by the spring breeze.
