Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Sun Yubao's heart dropped to the bottom of the valley. Qin Bohua, the young scholar in Qinjia Village, Sun Yubao still believed in this young man who grew up with him. He looked at Qin Bohua with a suspicious look and said, "Bohua, growing vegetables in our Qinjia Village in winter, is this really unsure?"

Sun Yubao felt that since there was no certainty, there was no need to try. Not only would it be a waste of manpower and material resources, but if the crops failed to grow, he, the village chief of Qinjia Village, would definitely be laughed at by the villagers. It was already a bad idea for him to be the village chief of Qinjia Village as a person of a different surname. If he hadn't done a good job, he would have lost his position as village chief long ago.

I believe that many people in Qinjiazhuang are eyeing his position as the village chief. But Qin Bohua's next words made Sun Yubao hesitate. Qin Bohua pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Not really. There is a method in the past history. It is to make the house warm inside, plant vegetables and grains inside the house, and then it will naturally succeed."

Qin Bohua looked at the technician Guo, thought for a while and said, "If we really do it this way, the cost will be much higher than the harvest after growing vegetables. As long as the temperature in the house is low, the vegetables will definitely be frozen to death. Technician Guo, do we really want to do this?"

People around me looked at each other. If we really did what the scholar said, the cost would be ridiculously high. Although there is a lot of firewood in this era, in the past, if every household didn't have firewood for the winter, they would just go to the mountains to pick up some. But firewood is always less durable than coal. Besides, how many vegetables can be grown in a room? Just like the scholar said, the cost of this thing is quite high.

Guo Yang smiled and said, "I didn't expect that there are still knowledgeable people in our Qinjia Village. I am very pleased. I came back from studying abroad. Do you think I would lie to you? I saw with my own eyes that farmers in the United States grow vegetables in winter. I learned this method abroad, so I can grow vegetables in winter."

Sun Yubao and his friends were very hesitant. This time, Secretary Zhao brought this so-called technician to their Qinjia Village just to let them try planting on a piece of land. There was no instruction from the superiors. If he really did it, he would have the credit if it succeeded. If he really failed, he could pretend that he didn't see the villagers' squeeze, but if his superiors knew about it, he would be in trouble.

Sun Yubao clearly remembered that Secretary Zhao had said before he left that this was just his own idea. He naturally understood that this matter could not be related to the orders of his superiors. As a small shrimp, he naturally could not resist, so he sighed and felt that he had to give it a try.

Guo Yang watched these people surrender, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He tried hard to think of the scenes he had seen when he was studying abroad. He thought about it, but because he had only been busy with eating, drinking and having fun before, he only had a rough idea. After thinking for a while, he said, "Now, take your shovels and hoes and go outside to cultivate a piece of land of about one acre. Don't be too far from this village branch. Got it?"

Wei Goudan took a deep breath and said, "It's winter already. The ground is frozen and crackling. Once you dig a shovel in the ground, it will freeze." Qin Dagou and the others thought that made sense. In such cold weather, let alone reclaiming a piece of wasteland, even if you go outside to pour some water, it will soon freeze into a thick layer of ice.

Guo Yang said unhappily, "Why are you so stupid? I remember there was a haystack next to it. If you light it on fire, the land underneath will be softened. Then you can cultivate the land, right? You don't have any dialectical thinking at all. Can't you think from another perspective?"

Guo Yang seemed very excited. He felt that this group of people did not take him as a technician seriously, so he was not so polite. Qin Bohua wanted to argue a few words, but Sun Yubao on the side quickly stopped him and dragged these young people out of the door. Qin Dagou said with a dark face, "Hey, Uncle Yubao, this shitty technician really doesn't take us farmers seriously."

Qin Bohua also pushed his glasses on his nose. He was very unhappy in his heart. Although he was born in the countryside, he was very proud of his identity. His academic performance in the city was enough to crush those children in the city. So what if he was a country boy? If the country boys were serious, they would be much better than the city boys.

The technician just now looked down on them, and Qin Bohua must have felt very uncomfortable. He was just a person who had studied abroad. What was so great about him? Qin Bohua said unhappily, "Yes, uncle, this person is obviously a young man sent by the higher-ups. He said it lightly, setting the haystack on fire. If the haystack is really set on fire, how can we keep warm in winter? That thing is a good material for heating the kang, and I really don't want to set it on fire."

These things that can be used for heating are very precious in the countryside. Originally, people in Qinjiazhuang were reluctant to buy coal, so they relied on the wheat stacks after the crops were harvested in the fall to survive the winter. Those things are treasures in the hearts of every household. They only pull a handful when cooking, and they treasure them at other times!

Secretary Qin sighed and said, "That's enough. It's just a haystack. It's destroyed. If we can grow vegetables in winter, we will be heroes in Qinjiazhuang. We may even be able to give speeches in the city. It's just a small matter. Don't you want to make a great contribution? Then the girls from all over the country will be scrambling to marry you, young men who haven't married yet?"

Sun Yubao thought for a while and said, "This technician Guo was just sent here by Secretary Zhao himself. If we don't cooperate well with the work, we will definitely offend Secretary Zhao. If there are any benefits in the future, what will we do without Qinjiazhuang? Let's cooperate well with the work, and then we can have a good meal and drink some wine at noon."
