Natural Disaster: My Portable Farm in the End of the World

Liu Shilei smiled hypocritically,

"Xiao Xu, don't worry about it. I am doing this for investigation. Look, the investigation is clear now..."

Xu Ge didn't listen to him either. Before Liu Shilei could finish speaking, he responded rudely.

"Secretary Liu, you should take care of yourself first. Once the fire burned out, not a single one of the ten greenhouses was left. I'm afraid, Secretary Liu, your losses are not small!"

These words can be described as murderous and heartbreaking, and Liu Shilei's face was so angry that he trembled.

He stopped pretending, glared at Xu Ge fiercely, snorted heavily, waved his hand and turned away.

This time it was completely broken.

Xiang Chi looked at Liu Shilei's eyes before he left and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

After all, Liu Shilei is the village party secretary of Hexi Village, and his greenhouse cannot be moved in the village. It would be easy for Liu Shilei to use his position to cause trouble for them.

Although all the procedures in Xuge's greenhouse are legal and compliant, it is really annoying to have someone watching every day, nitpicking, and waiting for you to make mistakes.

A toad crawls on your feet - it doesn't bite, it's disgusting.

Xu Ge knew what Xiang Chi was worried about.

Xu Ge: "Don't worry, he won't be around for a few more days. He was just acting as the village party secretary before. The old village party secretary has never recovered from his illness. He completely retired some time ago, and the city sent a new secretary."

Xiang Chi was a little surprised when he heard this, because it wasn't said before that the old secretary had retreated, and that Liu Shilei had changed from acting to official? How could a new branch secretary be suddenly appointed?

In fact, everyone in the village thought so before, including Xu Ge.

Until some time ago, Xu Ge submitted a proposal for building smart greenhouses to increase vegetable production and risk resistance.

Director Liao of the Agriculture Committee is very optimistic about this, especially considering the recent weather conditions. The maintenance costs and output required for ordinary plastic greenhouses in the face of such extremely hot weather are completely out of proportion.

Now that the weather is suddenly hot, many dishes from other places are in short supply locally, let alone transported to Dan City.

Although there are forty or fifty local vegetable planting bases in Dancheng, the supply to Dancheng, a fourth-tier city with a population of four million, is still somewhat tight.

The vegetable planting base in Hexi Village is considered the second largest planting base in Dan City, but most of the villages are still old-fashioned plastic greenhouses with low impact resistance.

Xu Ge observed the number of trucks coming and going in the village for a few days and knew that the vegetable output of various households had been decreasing rapidly recently.

This is not going to work. If we let it go, Dan City will soon be in trouble. Although the output of Xu Ge's greenhouse is still amazing, Xu Ge and Xiang Chi are not the kind of people who seek to enrich the country.

Hence this proposal.

Xu Ge's proposal solved Director Liao's urgent need.

Some government departments have issued new working hours because of the high temperatures. Working hours are from 4 pm to 10 pm every day, and dedicated personnel will be on duty during the rest of the time.

Director Liao's eyes lit up when he received Xu Ge's proposal. After looking over it with several professional technicians, they all believed that although the initial investment in building smart greenhouses was high, there was great potential in the follow-up.

Especially since Director Liao has recently heard vague rumors from above through private channels, this climate may get worse in the future.

While the situation is still relatively clear, I have implemented this matter to protect people's livelihood to the greatest extent. This step of my own can be regarded as taking the lead. It’s impossible to say what will happen in the future.

Director Liao, who had always admired Xu Ge, is now even more optimistic about him.

I contacted Xu Ge and asked him to go to the Agricultural Committee to hold a small meeting about the smart greenhouse.

At the meeting was Wang Jin, who had just been confirmed as secretary of the Hexi Village branch.

Wang Jin is originally from Hexi Village. In the early years, the village was poor and his family was even poorer.

After being admitted to college, although he had the support of a scholarship to prevent him from being unable to go to school, he still had to face difficulties in life.

It was the old party secretary who mobilized the whole village and donated money to him, so that he no longer had to work multiple jobs a day to make ends meet. You can concentrate on your studies without any worries.

After seven years of continuous bachelor's and master's degrees, Wang Jin, who was grateful, never forgot the help from the villagers and wanted to do something to repay the village.

Just as the government was vigorously promoting the return to the countryside to support agriculture, Wang Jin came back and took the village official examination.

The old secretary knew that Wang Jin intended to take over his position and strongly recommended him.

As for Acting Party Secretary Liu Shilei, because he had done nothing in office and some villagers reported that he was abusing power for personal gain, the Municipal Party Committee decided to remove him after an investigation.

The reason why no notice was given was because I was waiting for Wang Jin to join the company after he officially graduated.

Xiang Chi felt relieved when he heard what Xu Ge said.

Xiang Chi: "It would be good if he steps down, otherwise it would be really annoying to stare at us every day. Just put up with him for a few more days."

Suddenly he remembered that Xu Ge had just said that someone reported him, and he quickly asked:

"Hey? Who reported him? It seems that he is really desperate. Aren't you afraid of Liu Shilei's revenge? He doesn't have a big heart..."

Xu Ge whispered a name into Xiang Chi's ear. After hearing this, Xiang Chi's eyes widened in surprise.

Xiang Chi: "Why is it her? Didn't you mean the two of them..."

The two people were chatting and checking the greenhouse on the side near the fire scene.

The glass on the outside of the greenhouse was slightly blackened by the fire, and it was still warm to the touch.

The two of them wiped the glass underneath with a rag and checked to make sure there were no cracks or other problems.

As for black and dust at high places, other than hiring a professional cleaning team, you can only use high-pressure water guns.

The weather is so hot now that the water level in the reservoir has dropped. At this time, using a high-pressure water gun to clean the greenhouse is a bit too high-profile.

Xiang Chi shrugged and said it would be better to wait for the rain for a few more months. The impact is not big anyway.

First he watched the excitement, then he went to his own house to eat, and then he cooperated with the investigation. After all this trouble, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.

The temperature is still over 20 degrees, but compared to the daytime, it can be considered comfortable.

The two of them didn't turn on the air conditioner, opened the car windows, and went home enjoying the evening breeze.

……

Here, Liu Shilei angrily walked home, but was stopped by Liang Yan halfway. Looking at the villagers watching the excitement in the distance, Liu Shilei frowned displeased.

Liu Shilei: "Don't be nagging here. If you have anything to say, say it in the car. Don't you still have to go to the hospital to see your second brother?"

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Liang Yan and Liu Jinxin were used to being bullied by Liu Shilei. Now Liang Yan saw Liu Shilei's furious look, and the courage she had just summoned disappeared again.

Seeing that Liu Shilei had already walked away, he hurriedly ran over, got in the car, and the two of them went straight to the hospital.

Liu Jinxin was so angry that he fainted before he could take a breath. He woke up as soon as he arrived at the hospital. The people who came with them were villagers. When they saw Liu Shilei and Liang Yan coming, they said hello and left.

Seeing them coming, Liu Jinxin quickly stood up and asked anxiously:

"Brother, wife, you are here! How is the family?"
