Siheyuan: Struggle in the Red Era

In March, the wheat in Lin Baoyan's space had a good harvest. She operated the micro-tillage machine and quickly harvested all the wheat. She distinguished the wheat originating from the space and that provided by the Agricultural University. Lin Baoyan kept the seeds of the wheat originating from the space and took the rest outside, waiting for the receivers to transport them away.

Wu Zhi was lying on the sofa, eating the lychees that Lin Baoyan had taken out from the space, while watching Lin Baoyan taking out bags of wheat from the space. He was also directing Lin Baoyan: "I've had enough lychees. I want to eat some durian. Get some more. I'll bring them to Xiao Li later. He has been clamoring to try them for a long time."

Lin Baoyan nodded. All the ripe fruits in her space had been picked long ago, and the ones she took out now were newly grown during this period.

After all the wheat was harvested, she went to pick some durian and handed them to Wu Zhi while pinching her nose.

"I don't know why you like to eat something with such a strong taste, and why you sell it at such a high price."

"Hey, people like you who can't smell anything don't understand how delicious durian is."

Wu Zhi sniffed the durian intoxicatedly, broke open the shell, ran to the kitchen to wash his hands, rubbed his hands, picked up a handful of durian flesh, and enjoyed it with squinting eyes.

The 1950s were really unfriendly to people who liked fruits. Without developed logistics, fruits from the south could not be transported here at all. If you wanted to eat them, you had to go to their place of origin.

But who now has the ability to go to the south just for fruits?

Lin Baoyan stayed away from it. She really couldn't enjoy this blessing. The smell made her dizzy.

She simply hid in the small room and went into the space to pick mangoes to eat. Of all the many kinds of fruits, she really liked mangoes the most.

After living in this villa for a month, she realized that Wu Zhi did not live here. The reason she kept seeing Wu Zhi was because the organization was taking care of her. She suddenly moved to an unfamiliar place without any familiar people around her, so they let Wu Zhi come to accompany her for a while.

Of course, Wu Zhi is also very busy, and you may not see him for three or two days when he stays here, but knowing that there is an acquaintance here makes the feeling completely different.

As for Xiao Li, in the past few months, not to mention seeing her, even armed helicopters are rarely seen. It is said that she was in closed-door research some time ago.

Lin Baoyan felt that the country’s latest research and development achievements must have been led by Xiao Li, and Wu Zhi didn’t seem to understand these things.

This is also good. Everyone is good at different things, but as long as you can do your best in the areas you are good at, that's enough.

She took out the small box hidden in the space house again, stroked the box and laughed happily. There were many handwritten letters from leaders hidden in it. When she read novels, she was particularly envious of the protagonists. It was such a great honor to be able to get the handwritten letter from the big leader. Now, not only did she get it, but she also met with the big leader, talked with him, shook hands with him, and had three copies. This honor, she will brag about to her descendants for the rest of her life!

In July, although there were natural disasters in some parts of the country, the national grain output was still a bumper harvest, especially the total rice output, which increased by 40%.

This is the result of a considerable number of areas not switching to new and improved varieties.

That is to say, after large-scale trial planting, the average yield of this rice reached an astonishing 1000 kilograms per mu.

You know, at present, the country's fertilizer production is still very low, and the fertilization of rice cultivation is completely below the standard. It is hard to imagine how high the average per-acre yield of rice would be if sufficient fertilizer was applied.

When this news reached Lin Baoyan's ears, she was sitting on the sofa, her spirit body staring in a daze at the land that had expanded in space.

"Ah? What did you say? A bumper rice harvest?" Lin Baoyan came back to her senses and said blankly, "Didn't we already know last year that the rice yield per mu was over 1,000 kilograms? Now we've just confirmed this, what's there to be surprised about?"

Seeing Lin Baoyan's expression, Li Mei felt that she was making a fuss too much. Yes, she knew it last year, so why should she be surprised this year?

"By the way, Sister Li Mei, please help me contact Director Liu. I have something very important to report!" Lin Baoyan didn't know what was going on with the changes in the space, so she quickly asked Li Mei to contact Director Liu.

She connected this with the information she had just learned about the rice yield per mu, and had a vague suspicion that the changes in the space were related to this.

If this is really related to this, she will have to replan her space.

In less than an hour, Director Liu arrived.

Lin Baoyan is a very down-to-earth and obedient child. She never asks him for help with trivial matters and never troubles others if she can solve the problem by herself.

Now that she can say something very important, then it must be something very important.

When they arrived at the villa, Lin Baoyan took Director Liu into the meeting room.

"Director Liu, my space suddenly expanded just now." Lin Baoyan said to Director Liu very seriously: "Just when I heard Sister Li Mei tell me that the national rice production has reached 1000 kilograms."

Liu's expression changed immediately: "Do you suspect that the change in space is related to this?"

He turned around, his expression changing constantly, and then he stopped and said to Lin Baoyan, "Don't tell anyone about this news yet, anyone! Do you understand? I'll report it right away. Before I come back, don't go out, and stop your training for the time being."

"I can't be sure about this. I just have doubts, doubts." Lin Baoyan was anxious. If this was not the reason, then why was she mobilizing so many troops now?

Liu Chu laughed and said soothingly, "It's okay. Whether it's related to this or not, the expansion of your space is a big deal and must be reported."

He walked out quickly: "You should rest well at home first. I may need to take you for a full body check-up later."

He was over fifty years old, but his speed was so fast that even young men in their twenties could not match him. Lin Baoyan followed behind him, and in the blink of an eye, he was out of the villa, got into the car and left quickly.

Lin Baoyan underestimated the importance of this news. Half an hour later, she arrived at the underground hospital where she had come from and began various examinations.

While she was being examined, there was a heated discussion about the reasons for her change in space.

"The expansion of this space is indeed a good thing, but it does not prove that this is related to a good rice harvest."

"Why did they expand the scale of the project after she got to know the news? There must be a connection between the two."

"Yes, the rice yield per mu is 1000 kilograms. This is a great merit. Xiaolin has gained this merit, so it is normal for him to expand his space."

"Are you still proletarian revolutionary fighters? You can say such ridiculous things, and there are still people stupid enough to believe them."

"Space is already a ridiculous thing. I wouldn't be surprised if something even more ridiculous happens."

"Otherwise how to explain the sudden change in space."

"The rice production increase results came out a few days ago. Why did she have to wait until today to expand the space? Doesn't this mean that this is not the reason at all? It's just a coincidence."

"Alright, alright. Doing more good deeds is a good thing, and expanding space is also a good thing. No matter what the cause is, it's our people who benefit from it."
