Chapter 30 You are in charge of planting sweet potatoes

030. You have to plant sweet potatoes

Long Jiusheng spread his hands: "You let us report a bumper harvest, our production team's grain will be sent away, if the rice is a little lost in the second half of the year, if everyone has no food to eat, I will be beaten on the board is a trivial matter, everyone has no food to eat and starve to death is a big deal, secretary, I happened to hear that there will be a big drought in the second half of this year, so people dialed rice to plant sweet potatoes, you also know that sweet potatoes are drought tolerant and have high yields, even if there is no rice to eat, at least we have sweet potatoes to eat, and we will not die of hunger!"

Secretary Zeng looked at him hatefully: "Are you blaming me for letting you hand over the surplus grain?"

Long Jiusheng spread his hands: "Don't dare, for us people, eating is a big deal, since I am the captain of the production team, I have to be responsible for the food problem of the six hundred and fifty-two people in our village." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info Besides, the sweet potatoes have already been planted, and it's too late to rush to plant rice. ”

Secretary Zeng glared at Long Jiusheng fiercely, Long Jiusheng looked back at him calmly, the two stared at him like a bull for a while, and Secretary Zeng scolded viciously: "If there is nothing wrong in the second half of the year, you kid will wait for me to punish you." He turned around and walked away without looking back.

He originally hoped that there would be another bumper harvest of late rice in Longtou Village, and he could send more grain. Now this kid has switched to sweet potatoes, and it is clear that it is impossible to send grain.

This kid, this is fighting him in the ring.

He even wondered if it was a bit of a mistake to promote such a young production captain by himself? Perhaps, Shi Dong was better chosen in the first place.

If you find an opportunity, you will definitely teach him a good lesson, no, you must circulate and criticize him! He even plans to simply remove him if there is no major drought in the second half of this year and let Shi Dong come up as captain.

After hearing that Long Jiusheng heard that there would be a big drought in the second half of this year, some teams also allocated some rice to buy sweet potato vines everywhere and plant some late sweet potatoes.

However, they don't have such a big courage and large-scale planting like Long Jiusheng, they just think that if the rice is not harvested, they will also be a little red to save their lives.

Xiujuan came home from work, and when she saw Tang Ailian frowning in the backyard, she couldn't help but laugh: "What's the trouble with our family, tell my mother?"

Tang Ailian pointed to a bunch of sweet potato vines: "Mom, Master, give, give, sweet potato, vine." ”

It turned out that Tang Ailian wanted to let the family's self-reserved land grow sweet potatoes, but she didn't know how to persuade her, so she directly threw the problem to her mother.

Xiujuan was naturally surprised: "Your master sent it?"

Tang Ailian nodded vigorously: "Master, give, Ah Lian, home." ”

Liu Xiujuan was thoughtful, her daughter saved Jixiong with elixir, and it broke out that her daughter worshiped a hidden master as a teacher, when she first heard about it, she felt very angry, her daughter was less than a year old, and she was actually targeted. This folk apprenticeship is different from reading in school and recognizing a teacher. Master, Master, that's the same as my father, in the future, I will be filial to my master and provide for my master's old age. In other words, his daughter is equal to half of the people.

However, after thinking about it later, I think it's a good thing, after all, first, my daughter can be looked down on by a hidden master, which means that my daughter is unusual, and second, my daughter has learned her skills and will not be bullied in the future. Third, if there is a master, she will have a backer, and if anything happens in the future, many people will love her, and she is still a reclusive master with ability.

With these points, Liu Xiujuan finally accepted the fact that her daughter was divided into half.

At this time, when I saw my daughter's master sending so many sweet potato vines, I was also grateful to Tang Ailian's master in my heart.

Next, it is Liu Xiujuan's business to persuade Mrs. Tang to plant sweet potatoes in her own land.

"These sweet potato seedlings areβ€”" When Mrs. Tang saw the sweet potato seedlings, she was excited: "This sweet potato vine is so tender, I am worried that the porridge in the past few days is too thin, and I want to make something to cook porridge." ”

The sweet potato vine was born by Tang Ailian's medicinal well water, of course, it was tender, but, old lady, this sweet potato seedling is for planting, not for eating.

"Mom, this is given to us by Tang Ailian's master. ”

"Then you thank Ah Lian's master for me. The old lady picked up the sweet potato seedlings and put them in the kitchen.

Liu Xiujuan stopped: "Mom, Master Alian, who gave it to us to make seedlings." ”

"Seedlings - uh, my rice is not enough to eat, if we don't eat these sweet potato seedlings, what will we eat?"

I don't know that oil and rice are expensive, and Mrs. Tang eats food very sparingly, but after all, it is still not enough to eat. Eat some sweet potato sprouts, this is also for everyone's good. Besides, she didn't believe Tang Ailian's statement that there would be a big drought in the second half of the year.

"Then eat some wild vegetables. Liu Xiujuan is convinced that there will be a big drought in the second half of the year. She resolutely defended these sweet potato seedlings sent by her daughter's master.

"Wild vegetables still have to be fed to pigs. ”

"No one has anything to eat, and they still care about the pigs, in my opinion, it is better to sell the pigs. In this way, the rice bran can also be eaten as porridge. ”

"This pig is what I waited to raise and sell to save money to ask Erlong for a wife, you are jealous of this pig, right? You can't look down on Erlong so much, right?" The old lady was angry.

"Mom, I didn't mean that. Liu Xiujuan is also very aggrieved, she is obviously for everyone's sake.

"What do you mean by that? There was a big flood in the first half of the year, so how could there be a big drought in the second half of the year?"

So, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law confronted each other for the sake of sweet potato seedlings, and until Old Man Tang came back from herding cattle, the two still stood there and refused to give in to each other.

"What's the noise? Master Ah Lian, the sweet potato seedling man, made it clear that it was given to our family to plant their own land, so what is the matter with you taking it and eating it? Listen to the old man, sell the pigs, and plant these sweet potato seedlings on your own land. ”

Although Mrs. Tang had to listen to Old Man Tang, she still muttered in her mouth: "Plant it, plant it, plant it yourself." ”

When Liu Xiujuan heard this, she was angry for a while, I am in charge of planting sweet potatoes, is it true that I will eat the sweet potatoes when I harvest them?

Finally, sweet potatoes were planted in Liu Xiujuan's own field, and many members of the village saw it and immediately went to the captain to ask for sweet potato seedlings. And Tang Ailian's sweet potato seedlings for Long Jiusheng had been planted, so Captain Long found Tang Ailian again. Tang Ailian had to urge some more sweet potato vines to be handed over to Captain Jiusheng. In the end, 90 percent of the members in Longtou Village planted late sweet potatoes in their own plots.

Secretary Zeng originally planned to report criticism to Long Jiusheng after going back, but after going back, he was stumped by the food problem, although he forced Longtou Village to hand over the surplus grain, but there are still many production teams who are unwilling to hand over the surplus grain on the grounds that there is no surplus grain due to the disaster, and they are anxious, so they give up the criticism of the captain of Longtou Village: Although Long Jiusheng is making some nonsense, but handing over the surplus grain is still quite positive. Why don't you give him another chance to see what happens?

It's just that it didn't take long to see the after-effects, and Secretary Zeng didn't have time to find trouble with Long Jiusheng - the drought began.
