Great Power Technology

Ye Zhou originally thought that the so-called Whole Rice Banquet was just a gimmick, but he didn't expect that Whole Rice was really all related to rice.

It goes without saying that the staple food is rice and rice noodles. The various snacks made from rice did not surprise him, but the variety of the main dishes really gave him a big surprise.

Croaker fish, rice-flavored chicken, beef crispy rice, rice-flavored shrimp, rice field loach, lotus root, bullfrog, rice flower turtle

All the breeding and planting products that are symbiotic with rice were brought to the dining table, which was an eye-opener for Chen Hao and Ye Zhou, who had come here simply to relax. Ye Zhou, who was already tired of eating the recipes prepared by the health nurse arranged above They feasted even more, and even the guard Wu Ping who came with him was slightly at a disadvantage.

According to Ye Zhou's request, there were no other leaders at this meal except Xu Lei and a few young colleagues. They didn't know the true identities of Ye Zhou and Chen Hao, so everyone was not very restrained and ate until When the cups and plates were in a mess, everyone rubbed their bellies and leaned back on the chairs to rest.

After breathing for a moment, Xu Lei first sighed:

"This kind of dinner is so enjoyable. You don't have to drink, you don't have to flatter us, and the meal expenses are reimbursed. Ye Gong, please come more often in the future. It's best to come once a month to improve our food."

Ye Zhou gave her a funny look. After returning from the experimental field, she was still dressed plainly, but after changing into fresh clothes, she looked more youthful and in line with her age.

"You have so much property and you still worry about not having anything to eat and drink? You raise all these things yourself, right? It's a pity that there are no snails - I remember that rice snail symbiosis was also a very popular topic two years ago, right?"

After hearing Ye Zhou's words, Xu Lei returned to her professional working state in an instant, nodded slightly and replied:

"Rice snail symbiosis is indeed a good topic, but the requirements for water quality of field snails are too high, and slight changes in acidity and alkalinity can lead to large-scale death. This requires that the frequency of rice spraying and fertilization must be strictly controlled, but This is basically impossible.”

"I heard that before I came here, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences had built one or two acres of rice snail symbiosis fields, but the effect was too poor and it couldn't be promoted. The project was canceled within two years."

"The field is still there now, but instead of raising snails, it raises ducks - we can almost eat them by the Mid-Autumn Festival. Ye Gong, do you want to come?"

Looking at Xu Lei's sly smile, Ye Zhou nodded understandingly and replied:

"We'll see if we have time then. But seriously, are you always so miserable? You feel like you don't have enough to eat?"

Xu Lei laughed and replied:

"That's not as exaggerated as not having enough to eat. The main reason is that who would say no to a good meal? You see, this meal is not something that can be made in our workplace canteen. It's all specially brought to the restaurant. chef."

"Our leader still wanted to come, but I heard that you rejected him?"

Xu Lei looked at Ye Zhou curiously. Today's meal was indeed the most special meal she had ever had since working, so she couldn't help but explore the reasons behind it.

According to the reception specifications of your own unit, generally speaking, visits by colleagues from the same unit will be done in the canteen. The cook is the canteen chef, and the person responsible for arranging the reception is not fixed. Basically, it is a group of newcomers.

Senior leaders of equivalent units are also received in a small restaurant, but the food specifications are relatively high, and they are also received by specialized office personnel.

When the superior leaders of the higher-level units arrive, they will be received in a special restaurant. The specifications of the dishes are based on fixed meal standards and the single-person budget is strictly controlled.

She had only participated in a dinner arranged at the farm like today, and she had participated as the only key employee elected last year. Many of the leaders she met that time were those who frequently appeared on TV.

But today's meal was different from any other meal before.

His biggest boss personally arranged the menu, and the office director personally went to the best hotel in the county to hire a chef. All the ingredients for the dishes were freshly caught from his own experimental field, and even the seasonings were all re-bought and re-opened.

Under such specifications, the only ones who ended up eating were small characters like myself.

Such a sense of contrast made her somewhat suspicious of some mysterious second generation coming this time, but looking at the young and easy-going face opposite, she really couldn't match him with the second generation in her impression.

However, after all, this face is a little familiar.

Ye Zhou on the other side didn't think so much. After all, he was just here to make a living. A series of things were arranged by Chen Hao and Chen Hao's office staff, so when he heard Xu Lei's question, he I didn’t know how to answer for a moment.

After hesitating for a moment, he spoke:

"Probably, it's a rejection. Anyway, we're just here to see the new rice seedlings this time. It's not an inspection. There's no need to do it. Well, there's no need to take it too seriously."

Ye Zhou originally wanted to say, "There's no need to make things too exciting," but after thinking about it, he realized that this was actually a very childish statement.

With his current status, no matter where he goes or what he does, it is impossible not to mobilize troops, because his importance lies here, and his safety must be strictly guaranteed at all times.

This is actually one of the reasons why he is reluctant to go out. He has not really adapted to this kind of "special" treatment.

"Hey, I think this is good. It would be nice if there were more leaders like you. Ye Gong, what exactly are you responsible for? Can you tell me this?"

Xu Lei's question was a bit rash, and of course Ye Zhou would not answer. He just smiled and said:

"This involves confidentiality, so it's not convenient for me to tell you. However, it must have something to do with our rice research, otherwise I wouldn't have come here."

"That's it, hehe. Actually, I don't really want to know. I understand the confidentiality rules!"

Xu Lei did not continue to ask, but calmly skipped the topic.

The few people returned to the topic of eating and drinking for a while. Ye Zhou saw that they were all a little tired, so he proposed to leave.

The accommodation had been arranged long ago and was still led by Xu Lei. Ye Zhou and the others found their own rooms. Just as Xu Lei was introducing them to how to use various facilities, the watch on her hand suddenly vibrated.

Xu Lei raised her arm and glanced at the display of the watch, then said apologetically:

"Gong Ye, Mr. Chen, I won't introduce it to you any more. Anyway, these things are no different from ordinary hotels and guest houses. I have something urgent and I have to go to the fields to take care of it. I'm sorry."

"Emergency matter? What can happen so late?"

Ye Zhou looked at the other party in confusion and asked.

"The monitoring system indicates that the water level in a field is lower than the warning line. It is estimated that the upstream canal is blocked. I have to clear it - it's okay, you can just rest. It's not a big deal."

"This is not a matter of trouble or not. Is it safe for you, a girl, to go to the fields so late? Why don't you ask someone else to lead you?"

Hearing Ye Zhou's words, Xu Lei laughed.

"Gong Ye, today's rural areas are different from those in the past. Our experimental fields are all connected to the Internet by intelligent systems. In addition, we have the Skynet system and the Safe Village system, so there is no need to worry at all."

Ye Zhou nodded suddenly. After a moment of pause, he said:

"Well, how about we go with you? I happened to be full. Let's go for a walk and digest it."

"Then let's come together. I'll let you take a look at our field management system."

Xu Lei nodded without pretense, and then continued:

"Hey, most of our budget is spent on this, we have to let the leaders see the results."
