Reborn in the red years, I am farming in space

Chapter 643

The plateau on the high slope of the loess is broad and heroic.

The gullies here are desolate and rough.

In winter, the gullies and gullies on the high slopes of the loess are all silent.There are only countless large and small ice hanging on the cliff, which is magnificent.

In the shady gullies, the snow in some places is very deep.

Sometimes the shepherds of the production team are driving the flock, and if they accidentally fall into this kind of snow, it is difficult to pull it out.

And in spring, the ice hangs and the snow melts.From the beginning of the gentle trickle, it finally converged into a rushing mountain torrent.

Roaring, galloping, wantonly rushing towards the Wuding River.

Like Saibei's stubborn man, Nine Bulls can't hold back.These rolling yellow soups are covered with a large number of stones, dead branches and leaves.

There is half a bowl of yellow sand in a bowl of water.

What mountain torrents take away is not just the most fertile topsoil on the Loess Plateau.

Moreover, such precious water was lost in vain, so the flood also took away the villagers' extreme desire for a good harvest.

Luo Xuan was planning to build an earth dam in the "V" shaped ravine.

In order to intercept these precious floods carrying a large amount of fertile soil in the gully.

In order to store it as a water source for irrigating farmland in the future.

at the same time,

As the sediment inside the "V" shaped earth dam accumulates more and more, eventually this miniature earth dam will gradually form a "Gan"-shaped silted ground.

This creates more new arable land.

This kind of cultivated land is formed by the accumulation of yellow sand on the plateau, so it will be more fertile and have greater water content.

According to Luo Xuan's estimate, the grain yield per mu in this kind of alluvial land will be 5-7 times higher than the yield per mu of the sloping land on the plateau, which depends on the sky for food!
It is more than twice the grain yield per mu of the so-called "Sichuan land" by the river.

It wasn't that I had a sudden whim, slapped my head, and took it for granted.

It is because this method of controlling the Loess Plateau and soil erosion has been widely used in later generations.

And after 2 to 30 years of practical proof, the real data is summarized.

Accountant Li, production team leader Dou Jiande, militia team leader, and women's team leader accompanied Luo Xuan to stand on the high plateau.

Everyone looked at the members at the bottom of the ravine, who were busy.

Looking at this lively scene, everyone felt full of confidence and hope for the future.

On the other hand,

The imminent food shortage made everyone's mood suddenly heavy
Dou Jiande asked, "Comrade Luo Xuan, all the ditches in our production team add up, not to mention 100, at least 6 to 70 ditches."

"You distribute one and a half catties of food to members every day, and take care of two meals."

Dou Jiande was very anxious, "This method is good, because it solves the daily ration problem of the commune members.

At the same time, it also saves precious cash on the collective accounts.But every day 260 men and women come to work on the construction site.

Oh my god!

It needs nearly 800 catties of food expenditure every day, which may be unsustainable. "

Accountant Li smiled slightly, "We can't afford to consume 2 catties of grain a month."

Accountant Li snapped his fingers and told Dou Jiande, "County Grain Bureau, Water Conservancy Office, and Educated Youth Office. They coordinated to allocate grain to our production team. A total of 8 tons, or 16000 catties.

This batch of grain can last for 20 days at most, and this project will take 2 months to complete.What about the remaining food shortage? "

Now the production is all in the warehouse, basically coarse grains.There are still more than 6 catties in total.No matter how much the big guy saves, he can't stand it. "

The food in the warehouse is not only used to supply the members of the commune on the water conservancy construction site.

its greater effect,

It also needs to be used to deal with the distribution of food for all members of the entire Shilipu production team at the end of the year.

What's more, there are more than 70 sheep, 9 cows, 22 pigs, 7 mules, horses and donkeys in the breeding room of the production team.

It is not a small expense to chew horses and eat every day.

Moreover, the more than 6 catties of grain in the collective accounts are mainly potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Millet, sorghum, wheat and corn are supplemented.

What's more, the Shilipu production team will open a restaurant soon.

This kind of roadside restaurant mainly serves truck drivers passing by.

These guys work hard, but they make a lot of money.

Therefore, in the restaurants, they mainly sell the staple food of fine grains, and only a little bit of coarse grains can be mixed in.

This collective sideline.

The higher authorities will not allocate precious food to restaurants.

That means: your production team needs to open a restaurant and earn some living money.

The commune and the county didn't care, neither opposed nor supported it.

Whichever production team wants to open a restaurant, whoever has spare grain will open it.

If anyone has no food to do this kind of thing, he will farm the land obediently and watch others make money.

Therefore, hundreds of people on the construction site need a lot of food to support them.

And the roadside restaurant that will be opened soon is also a bottomless pit that needs to be filled with countless grains.
The food gap is too big! !

How to do how to do?
The women's team leader looked at Luo Xuan, and asked cautiously, "Why don't we learn from the Guanzhuang production team?"

Dou Jiande nodded, "Yes, I felt that the approach of the Guanzhuang production team was the right one."

Luo turned around and looked at Dou Jiande.

It seems that this Dou Jiande, for the members of the Guanzhuang production team, is under the leadership of the educated youth Xu Daliang.

In the Sichuan land by the river, a large number of irrigation canals are newly built, which is an infrastructure method, which I particularly agree with.

Xu Daliang built a small and crude dam by the Wuding River.

Then use this dam to intercept part of the river water, and then introduce it into the densely packed irrigation canals in the cultivated land downstream.

The water conservancy construction method adopted by Xu Daliang is less difficult and has quick results.

However, what they do differently from the Shilipu production team is that the members of the Guanzhuang production team are all volunteers.

I do group work and eat my own food.

Therefore, if this method is adopted, the collective food demand for the Guanzhuang production team will be less.

Financial pressure is not great.

Luo Xuan slowly asked Dou Jiande, "Captain Dou, do you think the method of the Guanzhuang production team can last?"

Dou Jiande puffed on the dry smoke, "Why can't the solution last? Their commune members get work points when they go out to work. Which commune member's family can't count on work points for food?"

"Shit!"

Luo Xuan made a rare swear word, "If the production team has 100 catties of grain, all members of the commune will have 100 work points.

Then 1 work point corresponds to 1 catty of grain, right? "

Everyone nodded, "That's the reason."

"Okay, I'll ask you."

Luo Xuan seemed to be aiming at Dou Jiande, staring at him and asking, "What if... we should pay close attention to the members and make them work more; at the same time, we should give him more work points."

"Then in the end, all the members of the production team earned a total of 1000 work points."

Luo Xuan stared at Dou Jiande, "But at the same time, has the total amount of food in our production team increased?"

Everyone shook their heads, "Work points are work points, and food is food. Even if there are more work points, the food will not automatically increase in the warehouse."

Speaking of which,

The people present finally understood: Let the commune members work more overtime and work more.

That's just the members of the production team, and the work points under their personal names have increased.

But the original total grain of the production team remains unchanged.

That is to say: If the previous 1 work point can correspond to 1 catty of grain.

Then the members do more work, but in the end they can only exchange 10 work points for 1 catty of grain.

Depend on! !

Everyone suddenly realized: after a long time of daring, all members of the commune, after a year of hard work,
Riding on horses. Did it for nothing? ! !
"Squeezing wool is not your method of plucking."

Luo Xuan sighed, "Like the Guanzhuang production team, relying on spiritual encouragement, relying on the entertainment propaganda team, shouting slogans to encourage everyone in the fields. It is difficult to last."

Luo Xuan asked Dou Jiande, "I believe that when you led the commune members to work, you were not lazy and did not work hard."

"But what about the members? Even if they have 10 hands, how much will they really use?"

Luo Xuan looked around at the crowd, "I just want to ask, will you do your best every day to work for the production team?"

Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.

If a cadre came down to check, or when the production team leader stood by and supervised.

The members of the production team, of course, worked very hard.

But the time they can keep is only for a while
Turning his head, he saw that no one was staring at them.

Who would exert all his strength to work?
There is no such thing as a fool.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and not willing to suffer losses.

Besides, there is not enough food at home.Who has so much energy and so much strength.

To work hard?

Instead of working hard, it's better to have a good chat with the scorekeeper.

Getting the relationship right is better than anything else.

Seeing that everyone began to agree, the Guanzhuang production team leaned on the field and planted colorful flags.

The practice of beating gongs and drums and shouting slogans to encourage people will definitely not last long.

Luo Xuan slowed down his voice and explained carefully to everyone: Why did the Guanzhuang production team, their way of building water conservancy work yield quick results?
But there are many disadvantages, and the sequelae are very serious.

"The land in Sichuan is flat. If we want to dig some simple canals, the progress of the project must be very fast."

Luo Xuan explained in detail, "Besides, Wuding River is now in the dry season. It is not difficult to build a simple dam on the dry river bed."

"In addition, at the beginning, the members thought that their crops would no longer suffer from water shortage next year. So in their hearts, they were willing to build new water conservancy facilities."

"There are also Xu Daliang's slogans that can make people's blood boil; and various literary and artistic propaganda to encourage everyone.

Luo Xuan summed it up, "Therefore, when the construction of the water conservancy project first started, everyone was very motivated. In this way, the progress of the project will naturally be very fast."

Accountant Li seemed to have lost something: "After a long time, the members' bodies couldn't bear it.

Coupled with working on the construction site, their appetite will also increase greatly.In this way, the food in their family can't hold up. "

The women's group leader said softly: "Yes, just working, but it can't bring benefits to the family.

Don't say that the members feel that they are at a disadvantage.

Even their mother-in-law and aunt would nudge them to death every day!It is these small accounts that the members are best at calculating. "

"Don't blame the members for their lack of consciousness, saying they are petty accounts."

Luo Xuan sighed, "They all come from small families and live a small life.

They are not small accounts, so what are they going to calculate?If there are any big accounts, it's not their turn to do the calculations. "

Standing on the plateau of the Shilipu production team.

From a distance, the members of the Guanzhuang production team can be seen, led by Xu Daliang.

In the river, it is hot and dry.

Faintly heard the sound of gongs and drums, and the fluttering of colorful flags.

The cadres of the Shilipu production team couldn't tell what it was like.

Perhaps envy, but also jealousy?

All members of the Guanzhuang production team worked together, young and old, to use the winter leisure time to vigorously build water conservancy facilities.

this matter,

It has already been commended by the Zhimi County Broadcasting Station!
Even the District Committee of the Tuocheng District awarded them a golden certificate and a red certificate of honor!

How can you not be envious?
But when the people standing on the plain turned their heads to look at Luo Xuan whose face was full of inscrutability, everyone's hearts were not only beating a little:
As for the Luo Xuan in front of him, he is less capable than Xu Daliang, right?
It shouldn't be possible. Luo Xuan could do it all by himself.

The Shilipu production team completely fought a beautiful turnaround on the edge of the cesspit.

And Li Steelmaking, who has been rampant in the Shilipu production team for more than 10 years.

Since Luo Xuan came here, within a week, he has been treated by Luo Xuan as a rat crossing the street
Nowadays, when all the members of the Shilipu production team secretly discuss at home, they all say that the educated youth in front of him:

People are not only courageous.

And his methods are amazing!
"Look!"

Luo Xuan sighed softly: "Don't look at him, Xu Daliang, who is having a lot of fun now. When the spring thaws, God will make a list for him."

Accountant Li was surprised when he heard the words: "I understand!
You mean to say: when the snow melts in spring and the Wuding River starts to flood.

All these crude water conservancy facilities built by the Guanzhuang production team will be destroyed by the flood? ! "

"What do you think?"

Luo Xuan asked back, "Wuding River, Wuding River, think about the name of this river and its origin!"

The Wuding River, because it often floods seasonally.

And the muddy land by the river cannot withstand the scouring of the raging flood.

This makes the whole river, its river course will not be fixed, will often divert.

For the characteristics of this indeterminate river, how could these commune members who have lived by the river for generations not know about it?
Dou Jiande frowned, "How can this be solved? The Guanzhuang production team has hundreds of members, and the whole winter's work is for nothing?!
Shall we remind them? "

The women's team leader shook his head: "It's useless. The slogan they yelled is that man can conquer nature, and now the Guanzhuang production team has won so many honors."

Accountant Li sighed: "They will not repent even if they are beaten to death! They have been put on the shelf and baked, and there is no turning back."

The simple and honest Dou Jiande who makes people have toothaches,
At this moment, he could only sigh: "I finally understand, now if I remind them of the consequences of next spring, the people in the Guanzhuang production team will only say that I am jealous of them.

Deliberately speaking ill of them, trying to dampen their enthusiasm for construction. Alas!This good man should not be. "

Hearing this, Luo Xuan was very relieved: Dou Jiande is a good person.

But he is good without principles.

Moreover, his organizational skills and leadership skills are quite lacking.

The cadres in the production team are not afraid that they are a little calculating or greedy.

I am afraid that he is too simple and honest, I am afraid that he has no principle,

I only know how to mess with mud everywhere, and dare not offend others.

Between the cadres with a little dirty hands and feet, and the simple and honest production captains who just goof off.

Undoubtedly, only the former can get things done!
