Chapter 377: Picking up Grandma

Everyone stayed in the small space for five or six hours, and also ate a meal, the fish that my grandfather caught from the strange fish lake, the fragrance of my mother's frying, plus a large pot of jujube rice, all of them had round bellies.

After estimating the time, Xiaojuan yawned and said, "It's not early, it's almost dawn outside, we should go out." ”

After the initial excitement, the feeling of tiredness began to strike, after all, every ten or so people's brains have to rest, they have not slept for nearly 20 hours, and it is normal to be sleepy now.

"Sleep in a small space before going out, rest assured, there is twice as much time here as outside." Tianming Road.

Twice as much time in a small space than outside?

Everyone was puzzled, how could there be twice as much time?

Tianlin said: "That's the case, let me explain, where we are now, is actually another universe, according to Einstein's theory of relativity, the clock of any universe is different......"

At this time, everyone was shocked again, Liu Hongcai folded her fingers for a while, and then she figured out what the concept of one day on earth and three days in a small space was, "Son, this place must have been left by the gods, and this time can be twice as long?" ”

"What's all the fuss about, okay, everyone is tired, let's go back to their rooms to rest."

Coincidentally, the meteorite belt outside the small space just passed through the small space, the sky was dark, and then a surprising scene appeared: the star grassland around the villa emitted a silvery white light, and everyone found that the villa was in a "lake of light", and the stars and grass outside the house illuminated the world like day.

"It's beautiful!" In a room on the second floor, Xiaojuan looked at the stars and grasslands like a bright galaxy outside the glass window, and the original strong sleepiness was driven away by the beautiful scenery in front of her at this moment.

"Wife, come and sleep, I'm going to sleep with you." I've seen Tianlin several times before. Squinting at her, he greeted her.

Cheng Dong and Song Xueyao struggled to drag the big bed to the window, and after getting the maximum view, while enjoying the scenery outside, the couple whispered and talked about a beautiful yearning, and finally couldn't stop the tiredness, and the two hugged each other and fell asleep.

……

The next day, Tianming brought everyone out of the small space.

Everyone is a little unsatisfied, but a family can't collectively evaporate. Neighbors, if they feel something is wrong and call 110 to call the police, it will be another trouble.

"It's cold!" Cheng Dong's neck shrank, and the temperature in the morning was the lowest, estimated to be around minus five degrees, compared with the warm spring-like environment of the small space, it was simply two days of ice and fire.

Even Chong Chongcheng, who wrapped thick clothes on his body in advance. I was also crying from the cold. Xiao Xue'er coaxed for a while, and only stopped crying after the air conditioning and heating in the room were turned on.

"Mom, since my grandfather still doesn't want to come out. Then let's go and pick up my grandmother, and bring her to the small space, so that she can meet her grandfather. ”

When everyone came out just now, Tianming asked his grandfather to come out together. Grandpa still resisted and didn't want to come out.

Xiaojuan and Xue Hong also persuaded a few words, saying that grandpa should stop feeling guilty. The past is over, there is no need to dwell on it, people cannot be resurrected after death, and the living do not torture themselves.

Unmoved, my grandfather picked up his fishing rod and went fishing at Strange Fish Lake.

Old man Cheng has been dead for almost a year, and his grandfather has lived with Blue Mercury in a small space for nearly three years, so it stands to reason that some things should be able to be put down, but grandpa's stubbornness still exceeds Tianming's imagination.

My mother said that my grandmother is having a bad time now, her hair is all white, she often goes to the hospital to see a doctor, and she is helpless in Liujialing, and her life is very hard.

"Mom, since that's the case, without further ado, I'll take my grandmother to our house now."

After breakfast, Tianming went to the backyard garage to drive the car out and went to Liujialing.

Xue Hong also picked up her mobile phone and called her husband Cheng Fangwen.

……

January 23rd.

Cheng Fangwen is working at the Soilless Cultivation Institute under the Agricultural Technology Bureau.

He is an old expert, with more than 30 years of work experience, enjoying the national second-level expert subsidy, in the entire cultivation institute, experts at this level, except for Director Kong, is Cheng Fangwen.

Director Kong is 78 years old this year, and it stands to reason that he has long passed the age of retirement, but in the agricultural industry, people who fall in love with it do not want to retire for a lifetime, from seed germination to maturity and fruit, every stage is full of expectations, although they repeat one reincarnation after another every year, but the joy of farming is far happier than sitting at home and doing nothing.

Cheng Fangwen is 53 this year and is the director of the Xiang County Agricultural Technology Bureau, and his rank is much higher than that of Director Kong, but Cheng Fangwen respects Director Kong very much and respects him as the division commander.

One reason is that Director Kong is a respected old expert and a colleague who used to have a very good relationship with his father; On the other hand, a large part of the reason why he was able to become the director of the Agricultural Technology Bureau at a young age was because of the strong recommendation of Director Kong.

Cheng Fangwen is a technician, wearing glasses, he naturally can't put on an official stand, and he can often see his busy shadow in the fields, and most people can't see that he is the director of the Agricultural Technology Bureau, a department-level official.

Director Kong took a blackened seed and said, "I can't plant it, and with this one, there are already three seeds that are rotten." ”

Cheng Fangwen shook his head: "This is not the seed of the earth's plants at all, it is strange that it can be planted." ”

After a certain department of the state handed over a few mysterious plant seeds to the soilless cultivation institute, the experts studied them for more than a month, and finally made several shocking discoveries: the DNA of the seed germ cell is a special three-strand structure, and the seeds also contain several special elements that the earth does not have, so as to conclude that this is by no means a plant seed that belongs to the earth!

A number of agricultural research institutes across the country, each institution has been allocated three or five mysterious seeds, without exception, all ended in planting failure, and the seeds could not even germinate.

The seeds could not germinate, and a certain department of the state seemed to have expected it, but it was still a little unwilling to issue a directive: if the institute could plant the seeds, the state would give a heavy reward.

The soilless cultivation institute managed by Cheng Fangwen is considered to have a high technical level from the perspective of domestic agricultural technology development level, and it has naturally become one of the research units of mysterious seeds.

"Xiao Cheng, do we want to try the remaining two seeds?" Director Kong asked.

"Try. Of course, we have to try, the state gave us the seeds, naturally hoping that we will try more, they must have left a lot of stock in their hands, and we will try the other two cultivation methods. ”

The phone rang.

Cheng Fangwen apologized to Director Kong and went outside to answer a phone call.

It was his wife Xue Hong who called, saying that it was almost the New Year, and asked him to go back to the countryside to see his grandchildren, he had not been to the countryside for more than two months.

Xue Hong complained a little: "Lao Cheng, don't be your official." Retire early and come to the countryside to accompany us, and our family will not lack your salary. ”

Cheng Fangwen smiled bitterly, Xue Hong had told him this many times, his original plan was to retire until he was 60 years old, but the Provincial Agricultural Bureau seems to have the intention of promoting himself, and he will have a great chance to be promoted to the deputy director of the Provincial Agricultural Bureau tomorrow, which is a big promotion.

Moreover, H is worried about domestic and foreign troubles, and the agricultural problem is a major issue of life and death. 1.4 billion people need to consume at least 700 million tons of food every year to meet basic needs, but the land of country H can only grow 600 million tons of food, and the shortfall is more than 100 million tons every year.

Recently, the United States has been hostilely buying grain ordered by country H from Thailand, Brazil, Argentina, Ukraine and other countries. Collect as much as you want, this is completely a vicious panic buy.

The international food price has always been three times the domestic food price of country H...... This action by the United States has increased international food prices by another 50%.

At present, the international grain price has exceeded 10,000 yuan/ton.

Other words. The current international food price is twice as expensive as oil.

It is precisely in view of this that the United States is buying grain on a large scale. How much money is paid by country H, they will increase the price by 2% on the basis of country H, and then implement a "grain standard" linked to grain after the gold standard and the oil standard...... The security of grain imports in country H has encountered unprecedented challenges.

In order to solve the grain shortage of 100 million tons and ensure a steady increase in grain production, country H has not only intensified its efforts to purchase grain from abroad, but also put forward a plan for agricultural revitalization at home, popularizing agricultural science and technology, increasing grain output, and striving to achieve complete self-sufficiency within three years.

Cheng Fangwen, a technical official who was born as an agricultural expert, has naturally received the attention of the state, and his promotion to the Provincial Agricultural Bureau next year is almost a certainty.

He said on the phone: "Xue Hong, I'm only in my early 50s, what else can I do when I retire and take my granddaughter?" Now that the country is in difficulty, it is the time for me to play my ability and role, you wait for me for a few more years, and when the country's food is enough, I will retire. ”

Cheng Fangwen also wants to accompany his wife and grandchildren at home, but in order to feed the bellies of 1.4 billion people and complete the noble mission, of course he is duty-bound.

However, he hadn't been to the countryside to see his family for two months, and he missed it very much, so he comforted Xue Hong on the phone and said, "The day after tomorrow is not busy, I'll take a leave to see you." ”

……

Liu Jialing, grandmother's house.

It's still early before the Chinese New Year, and only the third uncle of the three uncles has returned, and Liu Jialing has more popularity.

Tianming said that he was going to take his grandmother to see his grandfather, and after hearing this, his grandmother immediately went to the room to collect clothes with an excited face and prepared to leave.

"Is it really going abroad?" The third uncle pulled Tianming and asked.

"Yes, the day after tomorrow, our family is going abroad."

"Then you go for a few days, and what will come back? Are you not coming back for the Chinese New Year this year? The third aunt stepped forward and asked questions one after another.

"No, stay abroad for seven or eight days at most, and we'll come back after we finish watching grandpa."

"Then can you make a phone call, or chat on the Internet or something, I also want to see Dad." My father has been missing for a year, and there is no news at all, and it is impossible for the third uncle not to see him.

"This is a bit troublesome, I'll take a few photos for you to see, in addition, if possible, I'll buy a few more tickets next year, and take your uncle to go abroad to see, my grandfather is living well abroad, every day is the beach and the sea, fishing and shrimp ......"

The eyes of the third uncle and the third aunt showed excitement and great yearning, and they nodded busily and said, "Okay, it's good to go abroad, we haven't been abroad." ”

Grandma was carrying a green cloth package in her hand, and everything seemed to be packed, Tianming hurriedly stepped forward, took the things in her hand, helped her into the car, and drove away from Liujialing.
