Counterattack in the chronology

Chapter 170

Gu Lichun came to the office with two sacks on his bicycle. Sister Bai saw it and asked in surprise, "Xiao Gu, what kind of seeds are you getting here? Are you going to try to grow new crops?"

Gu Lichun paused for a moment, then replied: "Oh, it's the soybean seeds given by Lao Ye from Hongri Farm, and they are about to be planted in the experimental field cultivated by the agricultural team."

Sister Bai praised sincerely: "Little Gu, you are so enlightened, you always think about the collective and work."

Gu Lichun smiled without saying a word.Come on, let's use this bag of beans as seeds. Originally, he planned to take them home and ask Second Grandma to make fermented soybeans.

He parked his bicycle at the door of the office, and Lao Liang was busy arranging the materials. When he saw him coming in, he said, "Gu Ke, I have prepared the materials. Take a look first. You may need them for a meeting later."

Gu Lichun took the information and read it carefully page by page, writing down the main points with a pen while reading.

After reading the materials, he took his notebook and pen and prepared to go to the conference room for a meeting. Lao Liang also went, and he thoughtfully brought Gu Lichun's enamel mug with him, saving it for tea.

The people who attended the meeting today were pretty neat, and the cadres of each department and the captain of the production team all came.

Everyone smiled and greeted each other, and Hu Dahua's voice was the loudest: "Comrade Gu, don't worry, we all support you. Those who make things difficult for you are just flies, and they just buzz."

Hu Dahua was talking vigorously, Ye Ainong next to him kept pulling his clothes, it turned out that Xie Xuan had also come, which was normal, he was obviously still a cadre of Wuchang.

Xie Xuan swept away the high spirits of the past few days and looked very depressed.

As soon as he came in, the conference room was suddenly quiet for a moment, and then it became lively again.

Everyone just glanced at Xie Xuan and went about their business.Some people greeted perfunctorily, some lowered their heads and pretended to be reading materials, and some pretended to drink tea. Even Lu Jinjin, who was the most enthusiastic before, pretended not to see him.

Xie Xuan held his breath in his chest, unable to spit it out or swallow it.Before he left, the tea was cold.

He looked at Gu Lichun again, he was like a fish in water, he was in the right place.

"Chief Gu, will you bring up the matter of raising pigs in the production team at the meeting today?"

"Comrade Gu, is the pig feed factory really going to be built? Does that mean we need a batch of temporary workers?"

"Xiao Gu, do you still need someone from the Department of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry?"

……

Everyone rushed to ask questions and chat with Gu Lichun.

Lu Jinjin couldn't help but feel sour when he looked at the popular Gu Lichun, but when he saw Xie Xuan's face, he felt a lot better for some reason.

Everyone was chatting lively, and suddenly became quiet again.

Gu Lichun knew that the two leaders had come, so he quickly put away his things, and took a sip of tea from the mug.

At the beginning of the meeting, as usual, Secretary Zhu spoke first. He summarized the achievements, experience and lessons of the past year, looked forward to the bright future, and finally mentioned the present.There is a lot of content, but you don't have to think too much, just listen to it.

When it was Deng Chang's turn, his words were still as concise as before: "Spring plowing and spring sowing are progressing very smoothly, and the production department and logistics department are cooperating very well. Needless to say, let me talk about the arrangements for animal husbandry. [-] ducklings have been delivered and handed over to relevant personnel for arrangement; the next step is the pig farm. The general farm is very optimistic about our pig farm and suggests that we expand the scale, but limited by funds and personnel, the scale that can be expanded is limited In this regard, Xiao Gu made a suggestion, which is to combine collective pig raising with employee pig raising, what is this called?"

Gu Lichun had no choice but to answer: "Deng Chang, this is called hiding pigs from the people."

Deng Chang nodded: "Yes, pigs are hidden among the people. If you have any opinions and suggestions on this, please share."

As soon as Deng Chang's words fell, everyone rushed to speak.

Hu Dahua was the first to speak, and his voice was coaxing and powerful: "Deng Zhang, on behalf of our team, I agree with Comrade Xiao Gu's proposal. The production team outside also allows members of the commune to raise pigs. It is reasonable for us farm workers to do the same. Of course, some It is inconvenient for people to live in tight housing, but some people can. Besides, many family members on our farm have not solved their work problems. If we can raise pigs, this will not only contribute to the collective, but also improve the lives of employees. Anything that is beneficial, we naturally have to agree.”

After Hu Dahua started, several production team leaders behind him also echoed him.

Xie Xuan frowned as he watched this scene, cleared his throat, and said in a hoarse voice, "Let me also say a few words."

When Hu Dahua heard that Xie Xuan was going to speak, he couldn't help curling his lips.

Xie Xuan pretended not to see it, and continued: "I'll put aside the problem of the route today, and talk about a few problems in life first. Our employees are agricultural workers, and agricultural workers are also workers. Although the Zhuangzi where the production team lives is called Zhuangzi, But it’s different from the real countryside. Please note that I’m just seeking truth from facts, and I don’t mean to discriminate against peasant brothers.

Our Zhuangzi has a high population density. If production team members are asked to raise pigs, what about hygiene issues?The smell of pig manure in the pigsty is not good. There are people who raise pigs in a village, and there are people who don’t. Will those people who don’t raise pigs have any objections to the people who raise pigs?Once there is an opinion, the two sides will have conflicts. Is it not conducive to the unity of the people?There is also the problem of veterinarians. As we all know, there are very few staff members in the veterinary station on our farm. The farms in charge of the five sub-farms are all overwhelmed, and the production team is even more overwhelmed. Scattered, they run on the road every day, how can they work? "

As soon as his question was raised, the people present couldn't help frowning.

Hu Dahua was the first to retort: ​​"Comrade Xie, haven't you read Comrade Xiao Gu's plan? We will solve the veterinary problem by ourselves in five games."

Xie Xuan sneered and said, "This pig will be raised soon, and the candidate for a veterinarian has not been found yet. Besides, do veterinarians say that you can learn it?"

Hu Dahua stared, and was about to continue to refute, when Gu Lichun smiled and said: "Comrade Xie is very thoughtful, and it seems that you have put in a lot of effort. Thank you for finding out the omissions and filling in the gaps for us. We are not cramming for veterinary problems. Rather, they have been prepared for a long time. At present, Xiaokang Xiaosun of the pig farm is studying veterinary knowledge in depth. We specially invited Comrade Ye Beilin, a senior veterinarian from Hongri Farm, to give guidance.

I plan to wait for a while, let Xiaokang and the others take a test for a certificate, and then they will take the lead in forming a youth assault team.As for the sanitation issue, I have already discussed it. We will let the pig raising team members of each Zhuangzi form a sanitation patrol team to clean up and transport pig manure in turn for centralized treatment. A biogas digester will be built in the center of the Zhuangzi to produce biogas with pig manure and other materials. , for the use of the workers in Zhuangzi, which not only solves the health problem, but also saves coal and firewood, killing two birds with one stone. "

As soon as Gu Lichun finished speaking, Hu Dahua took the lead in applauding, and everyone applauded together.

Xie Xuan: "..."

Gu Lichun waited for the applause to stop, and added: "Let me say one more thing, we will check the conditions of each family one by one, and only those who meet the conditions will be raised. What should we do if we don't meet the conditions? There is also a way. You can cooperate with qualified employees. For example, some people have land, some people have labor, and then you can cooperate to raise pigs. For example, some villages still have vacant land, and you can build a few by yourself. Pig house, this is called small collective pig raising.

In short, we should make use of all available conditions, regardless of the situation, and use them when we have the conditions, or create conditions if we don’t have the conditions.You are not raising pigs for yourself, you are raising pigs for the collective and the people.The whole body of a pig is a treasure. Pork, pig skin, lard, bristles, and pig bones are all very useful.If we can raise high-quality pigs, we can directly supply them to the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and they will be exported. You are creating foreign exchange for the country. "

What Gu Lichun said made everyone feel excited and excited.Hu Dahua and others are gearing up and eager to try.

Hu Dahua applauded loudly, and took the lead in clapping again, the applause was even louder than before.

Gu Lichun glanced at Secretary Zhu and Deng Chang, not knowing what to say.This Hu Dahua is addicted to applause.

The louder the applause, the worse Xie Xuan's mood.

He coughed heavily, and then asked: "Comrade Gu, you must have heard a saying: If you have a lot of wealth, you don't count the hairy ones. What if there is swine fever? What if the pig dies? What about these losses? What to do? Is it the factory or the staff?”

Gu Lichun said: "We will try our best to avoid this kind of thing from happening. As long as we use scientific breeding methods, the probability of swine fever will be greatly reduced. As for who is responsible, we will formulate a reasonable regulation."

Xie Xuan pressed on step by step: "Even if the probability of swine fever is greatly reduced, is it still possible?"

Gu Lichun looked at Xie Xuan, smiled faintly, and asked back: "Comrade Xie, don't talk about pigs, let's talk about us human beings. When we were young, no matter how careful our parents were, we would all get sick and die young, right?"

Xie Xuan thought for a while, and he couldn't deny the problem, so he nodded and said, "Yes, but we are discussing the problem of pigs, so don't talk about him."

Gu Lichun spread his hands: "This is the same type of problem. No matter how careful we humans are, accidents may happen, but your parents will not have you or raise you because of this possible accident? No, they will use science The method of raising you is so that you can sit in a spacious and bright meeting and talk to me about the problem of pigs. Comrade Xie, the revolutionary predecessors taught us that if we are not afraid of making mistakes, we must dare to try all new things. Your kind The normal way of thinking can be called thoughtful thinking, but if you worry too much, you will become a waste of food because of choking."

Everyone: "..." This statement sounds fine, but why does it always feel weird.

Hu Dahua finally found a chance to speak, and said loudly: "Xiao Gu is right, your parents can raise you scientifically, and we can also raise pigs scientifically. You are worried about this and that. Why don't I see you afraid of choking and not eating?" ?”

Everyone couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.

Xie Xuan's face was flushed, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.

Sister Bai hurriedly smoothed things over: "This old Hu is a rough man, and he speaks more directly. Comrade Xie, don't mind. Everyone, stop laughing and be serious. This is a meeting."

The others stopped their smiles and continued to speak and discuss.

The atmosphere at the scene finally gradually returned to normal.

Lu Jinjin also had objections, but because Xie Xuan stood in front of him, he didn't say anything, but just watched the changes from the sidelines.Seeing that even Xie Xuan, who was more powerful than himself, was like this now, he couldn't help hesitating.

Since no one objected, the meeting topic quickly moved on to the next one.This time it is about agriculture and animal husbandry.

Gu Lichun proposed to use the forest land of Wuchang to plant fruit trees.

He first made a calculation for everyone: "...a fruit tree can bear more than 300 catties of fruit, and according to the market price, it can be sold for 30 yuan. Do you calculate how many fruit trees can be planted in our five forests? If we can Introduce some new varieties, such as short fruit trees with high fruit bearing rate, which are easy to take care of and have a high unit density. Maybe one mu of land can receive several thousand catties of fruit, and then you can calculate the income? This fruit tree does not need a lot like crops We only need to invest some cost and manpower at the beginning, and wait for the harvest in the next few years, which is called adapting measures to local conditions and developing in an all-round way.”

This time, Lu Jinjin couldn't bear it anymore, and objected: "Comrade Gu, you talk about economic benefits, but you keep talking about benefits, and you are in charge of the economy again? Why were the fruit trees on our farm cut down a few years ago? Was it because they didn't meet the requirements? The proletarian line?"

Gu Lichun said: "Is the document issued above saying that it is not in compliance? It's just that a very few people did not understand the spirit of the superiors and made a wrong move. Besides, I personally asked the director of the Land Reclamation Bureau about this matter, and he said yes To develop forestry. Comrade Lu, your memory needs to be improved at such a young age. How long has it been since you can’t remember?”

Sister Bai said: "I also remember this matter. The director mentioned this matter last year."

Section Chief Zhang and Zhao Zhijun also followed up with speeches.

Lu Jinjin was so stunned that he was speechless, he couldn't help but look at Deng Chang, who was drinking tea from a tea mug, with an attitude of "you can argue as you please, anyway, I don't care".

In the second round, Gu Lichun easily won again.

Both Xie Xuan and Lu Jinjin were a little discouraged, they were alone and lonely.It's hard for them to deal with Gu Lichun, not to mention he has so many helpers.

Gu Lichun then made a third suggestion, which was still about the construction of farmland water conservancy.

Digging canals and ditches, he can lead people to do it in his spare time, or he can exploit and squeeze a bunch of teenagers.But there is one problem that he can't solve personally, and that is the matter of drilling a well in the field, after all, it requires professional tools and professionals.

As soon as he made this suggestion, he didn't mention everyone's support and approval like the previous two rounds.

Sister Bai was suspicious: "Xiao Gu, water conservancy construction is necessary, but we dug a circular canal a few years ago and connected it to the Blue River. Even if there is a drought, there will be absolutely no problem with the irrigation of our five farms."

Zhao Zhijun also agreed with Sister Bai's opinion.

Seeing so many people objecting, Xie Xuan felt relieved.

Gu Lichun said calmly: "Indeed, with the current conditions, there is no problem with the irrigation of the five farms, but have you ever thought about it? Did the droughts that happened in the past only happen to a certain place? Often there is a large area of ​​drought.

There are not only our farms on the banks of the Blue River, but also countless villages and farmlands. They will also irrigate at that time. We cannot release as much water as we like, and we have to worry about other villages.And we are in the middle, not the upper reaches.Furthermore, what if water is diverted from us for irrigation in three out of four games?Do we agree or disagree?Therefore, in order to make complete preparations, I suggest drilling more motorized wells, preferably dozens or hundreds of wells. Of course, I suggest that other subfields also prepare together with us. "

Everyone expressed their views and discussed in succession.Some clearly oppose it, and feel that the current motorized wells are completely sufficient; a small part agrees, and most are neutral.After discussing for half an hour, the issue was still inconclusive, and Secretary Zhu and Deng Chang did not come to a clear conclusion, so they had to put it on hold temporarily.

Gu Lichun didn't care about it, and said silently in his heart: "Okay, you all stay dry." Anyway, he has already done what he can do.

After the meeting adjourned, what they discussed at the meeting was circulated.

Among them, the saying "scientifically raise pigs and scientifically raise Xie" is widely circulated, and wherever Xie Xuan goes, it arouses people's laughter and discussions.Now, Xie Xuan hated Gu Lichun and Hu Dahua together.

The saying "Hiding pigs to the people" is very popular, and the production team members in the five farms took active actions. Everyone started to tidy up the house and silently planned the pig raising.

However, Gu Lichun was also frantically ridiculed by the cadres in the fourth field because of the water conservancy construction and the proposal of drilling the mechanical well.

When Zhao Gao and Sun Houyu heard about it, they were so angry that they wanted to take someone to settle accounts with them.

Gu Lichun stopped him: "Don't worry, when they come to beg us in the future, we will humiliate you back severely."

For these villains and flies, Gu Lichun really didn't take it seriously. He began to devote himself to his work.Spring plowing and spring sowing, planting alfalfa and vegetables, catching piglets to buy fish fry, all the cadres in the field are like spinning tops, spinning non-stop.

The first month passed quickly, and the time sequence entered February. The rainy season has passed, but the spring rain is still gone. The production team and logistics department have begun to organize people to water the wheat fields.

Only then did everyone realize how wise Gu Lichun's previous proposal was.
