Chapter 17 Listen to the heavens
After Liu Lao and the others learned of Liang Sanping's thoughts, they did not continue to stay in Qiongzhoukou. The next day, they rushed back to Baoting, and immediately went to ...... cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions with Liang Sanping and other agricultural and sideline products in the designated month of planting to carry out investigations.
Liu Lao and others are extremely rigorous scientists, although it has now been proven that out-of-season vegetables can indeed be grown in the Qiongdao and Baoting areas, and Qiongdao has always been cultivated in this way.
However, if it is planted on a large scale, then there are many problems. Input of pesticides and fertilizers, control of pests and diseases. Then there is the issue of plantation management.
At the same time, seed selection is also important. This is a matter of time from planting to harvest, as well as whether the fruit and vegetables meet the tastes of the recipients.
And Liang Sanping took the opportunity to ask Xia Zhendong to seconded Lan Bin to participate in the research work together. Lan Bin was originally an educated youth, and his cultural experience was not low.
Liang Sanping knew that Lan Bin later did statistical work. Although he lacked expertise in agriculture. But he did an excellent job of co-ordination.
There is no doubt that Lan Bin has done an excellent job in the classification of numbers and local surveys. And Lan Bin is modest and doesn't like to talk much. These qualities make it easy to trust him.
Sure enough, not long after Lan Bin came over, even the picky Xia Zhendong was extremely satisfied with his work. Lan Bin made the overall planning of the information in an orderly manner, and the arrangements for life were also in place.
often brought the food in the canteen and delivered it to Liu Lao and others who were investigating. It also summarizes the farming experience of some old farmers in the vicinity.
"Hey! I said Xiaoliang, where did you dig up such a treasure?! The culture is high, and the level is also high. There is no shelf yet, this Lan Bin has been exercising for a few years, and he is definitely a pillar. ”
Liang Sanping smiled but didn't speak, the old man of the Lan Bin family was an old revolutionary of the Dongjiang Column during the anti-Japanese period. There was no way around it during the great turmoil, but now that the turmoil has passed, I will definitely arrange for my son to go home.
Xia Zhendong wants to intercept Lan Bin, I'm afraid it's not so easy.
At this time, Lan Bin walked over with a smile, and the project was almost completed. This can be regarded as a complete merit for him. When the project is over, he will return to Yangcheng, the capital of northern Guangdong, to work.
"Lao Lan, come! Smoke! Seeing Lan Bin coming, Liang Sanping handed over the cigarette with a smile. Lan Bin likes to smoke, which Liang Sanping has known for a long time.
Lan Bin smiled and took the silver ball handed by Liang Sanping, and pressed the lighter to light Liang Sanping first and then to himself.
"Sanping, I'll go back to Yangcheng after this project is done." But I saw Lan Bin inhale Ou Smoke deeply, and said to Liang Sanping: "The next time we meet, I don't know when it will be......"
Although the two have been together for a long time, Lan Bin feels as if he has known this Liang Sanping for many years. Some of his own little habits, hobbies, and even personality traits seem to be clear to Daping's younger brother.
But Lan Bin obviously felt that this was not Liang Sanping deliberately currying favor with himself. It's more like old friends who have been together for many years, and they have become familiar with each other to the point of almost family.
If Liang Sanping knew that Lan Bin thought so, he would definitely smile bitterly in his heart. The time that the two have been together for more than ten or twenty years, and the relationship between Lan Bin and Liang Sanping is no different from that of his family.
Lan Bin later returned to Qiongdao, even if he had a house, he had to live in Liang Sanping's house. And Liang Sanping went to Dapeng City, where Lan Bin worked, but Lan Bin didn't even allow Liang Sanping to open a hotel, and he had to live in his own home.
If it is decades, how can Liang Sanping not understand Lan Bin's personality?!
"Hahaha...... Who can say what will happen in the future?! It's not necessarily good to transfer back to the big city, and you may even have to come back to our Baoting! ”
Liang Sanping's words made Lan Bin stunned. Then he laughed.
"It's not that there isn't, it's that the chances of it happening are too low." Lan Bin shook his head with a smile and said, "You know, my old man's physical condition is like that, I have to go back to take care of ......"
"Moreover, I should be a grassroots worker when I go back. Although we belong to the same Guangdong Province, the chances of returning to Qiongdao and returning to Baoting are too low......"
Liang Sanping smiled and didn't speak, and took a puff of cigarette before saying to Lan Bin: "Old Lan, do you think my project can be successful?!" ”
Lan Bin smiled and pressed the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground to extinguish it - fire prevention is very important at this time. Now it's in the woods, and if something burns up, it's going to be a big problem.
"Sanping, I'll tell you the truth! You want the farms, the farms, and even most of the farmers to be rich, and that's a good idea. But alas, the reality is very cruel......"
Lan Bin stood up and sighed: "Now it is obvious that the state is not focusing on agriculture. The reform has just begun, and we are now poor......"
"So in order to develop, we have to bring in external capital. And the most effective accumulation of technology and capital is not agriculture, but industry. The great development of industry is already predictable. ”
Speaking of this, Lan Bin paused and continued: "At least in the short term, it is impossible for the state to come up with funds and policies to support agriculture. So, even if you are able to walk this time, the road to the future will be difficult......"
Liang Sanping was silent, he actually knew this very well in his heart. For the time being, it is impossible for the state to come up with funds and policies to support agriculture, because what the country lacks most now is the accumulation of industrial technology and capital.
Advanced technology, advanced management methods, a large amount of foreign capital. This is what the country needs most now. If you want to make a difference in agriculture, this is almost an impossible task.
It was not until 30 years later that the state began to tilt its policy towards agriculture. At that time, farmers will gradually share in the benefits brought by the country's development.
But even so, there were still a large number of poor people in most of the mountainous areas at that time who could not enjoy the benefits brought about by the country's reform and development.
"All-round development is the real development. We are a large agricultural country, and more than half of the population in this country is agricultural. Perhaps industry and services will absorb part of the agricultural population. But what about the rest?! ”
Liang Sanping took a deep breath, as if he was telling Lan Bin and cheering himself up: "Agriculture is our foundation, and agriculture guarantees that we can have safe food, clothing, housing and transportation." I'm not ready to give up! ”
"Maybe I may not get results if I work hard, but I will continue to work hard. Until I can't spell! Liang Sanping said, his eyes shining brighter.
"I don't have much skills, but at least I hope I can help the farmers I can help and become rich. Only in this way will our country be truly rich! ”
Liang Sanping looked at Lan Bin with blazing eyes and said, "Old Lan, if one day I need your help." Can you help me?! ”
Lan Bin was silent, this matter was not easy for him to answer. The life of farming, this life in the poor countryside he has had enough. Although there are many memories of him here, he is still less than a year old, and he hopes that he can achieve something in the future. Rather than continue to toil in this poor and remote land.
"I promise you!" Just when Liang Sanping's gaze gradually dimmed, Lan Bin suddenly said, "But I only help you a little bit." Unless, you can prove to me the prospects of agriculture. ”
Liang Sanping smiled, with Lan Bin's words, this is enough. Do you need anything else?!
"Lao Lan, don't worry! I'll prove it to you! ”
Nearly half a month of investigation finally ended, Liu Lao and others formed a complete report on their investigation and summarized all the situation on the lack of vegetables in Japan to the General Administration.
In particular, he mentioned that in 1976 Japan imported a total of 200 million US dollars of vegetables, which attracted great attention from the General Administration and even the ministry. Soon, the report was sent to the desk of the top chief as an important proposal.
The imperial capital, somewhere in a deep alley compound. An old man chuckled as he pinched the report, while several elderly people of equal age sat beside him.
This is a very ordinary house from the outside, and although it is a courtyard house, at least it looks no different from other courtyards.
Only the guards at the door are silently telling the difference here. And the old willow trees in front of the door are talking about the history of this place.
"Hahaha...... Old Chen! We old guys are really old, and we just think about reform and reform, but we don't think that we can also start with reform in agriculture and keep pace with other aspects. ”
But seeing the old man with Wen Jiàn laughing, he put down Wen Jiàn and sighed: "Old Liu Ti's words of this young man make sense. After all, we are a big agricultural country. We must pay attention to how to take care of more than half of the agricultural population and how to carry out agricultural reforms. ”
The old man called Lao Chen nodded when he heard this, but then said, "That's right. But if we reform agriculture, how much will be invested, what kind of policies will be needed, and what will be the impact? We don't know anything! It's a big risk to move the whole body......"
The old man who put down the text replied with a smile: "What do you do without risk?!" Back then, we carried out the revolution with our heads, and there was no risk?! Just as risky! ”
As he spoke, the old man stood up and lit a cigarette for himself: "Reform, there is no path to follow. We were all feeling the stones to cross the river. None of us know where to go or where the road is heading. ”
"In that case, why not give young people some chance to give it a try?! The reform allows some mistakes to be made, as long as there is no violation of the law of the country, then let go of the courage to break through! We, the old guys, can still move to give the energetic young people a hand, and there is no problem in giving them a ride! ”
