Li Huazi is very weak-hearted, even if he was a second-rate son, he never blew such a big, and now he blows out a big, and he has to invite the leaders of the prefectural party committee, the provincial party committee, and the reporters of the news unit to supervise and accept it.

If it was just propaganda in this county, Li Huazi would not be afraid, after all, he was covered by Secretary Yang, but he was really worried about making a big fuss, and asked very weakly: "Secretary Yang, do you think this is good?" ”

Yang Shugen is confident in his heart, after all, he has seen the internal reference, all over the country are releasing satellites in a bumper harvest, and the yield of 5,000 catties per mu is no longer news, before the leaders of the prefectural party committee specially called, saying that Beitai has put satellites in industry, and Nantai County has always been a large agricultural county, and this time it cannot be left behind.

Yang Shugen understands the intentions of the leaders, so he is so bold, and as for the provincial party committee, he is not worried, and he has his own leaders to do the work.

Thinking of this, he smiled faintly and said to Li Huazi: "Lao Li, you still don't understand politics. ”

Li Huazi smiled innocently: "Secretary Yang, I'm a big old man, I don't understand anything, anyway, I'll hit wherever you point, and you can do whatever you say." ”

Yang Shugen said: "Leave one acre of high-yield experimental field, let the rest be harvested first, organize militia patrols to prevent the land-rich and anti-bad rightists from making trouble, and there are also voles and sparrows to guard against them, and the socialist wheat should be returned to the public." ”

Li Huazi said: "In the Four Evils Eradication Campaign, the sparrows in our commune have been almost eliminated, and the scourge cannot harm the crops. ”

Yang Shugen said: "That cannot be taken lightly, and the strings of the class struggle cannot be relaxed at all times. ”

Li Huazi immediately reviewed: "I was careless, and when I went back, I immediately organized the Young Pioneers to set off another campaign to fight sparrows and eliminate voles." ”

Yang Shugen nodded with satisfaction, and asked again: "How much harvest is estimated on this acre of land?" ”

Li Huazi pretended to think for a while with his cheeks in his hand, and said: "Judging from my many years of experience in agricultural production, 10,000 catties must be available, and as for how much 10,000 and how much it is, I have to weigh it to know how much." ”

Yang Shugen said: "Not bad. ”

……

Many people questioned the authenticity of this figure, especially some technicians of the county agricultural bureau, who believed that the soil composition of Kushuijing was not good, and according to the data of previous years, 300 catties per mu of land was considered a bumper harvest, and 10,000 catties was simply a fantasy.

Yang Shugen was very annoyed by this rumor, but it was inconvenient to refute the rumor in person, and at this time, an article appeared on the fourth page of the Nantai Daily, sprinkled thousands of words, and demonstrated the possibility of producing 10,000 catties per mu from a scientific and political point of view.

The article is entitled "Thoughts Behind the Great Harvest", signed by Lethe, and at first glance it is a pen name.

The article is very well written, saying that the bumper harvest of wheat in Kushuijing came from the road of constant struggle. In order to defeat all kinds of conservative ideas, the party led the broad masses to launch loud shouts, big releases, and big debates, and a total of 50,000 big-character posters were posted throughout the commune! The cadres of the commune took the lead in deep ploughing, dense planting, and increasing the application of fertilizer, and the soil of the experimental fields alone was turned more than eight feet deep, and the management of the fields was also tightened, and the militia was organized to strictly guard against the stubborn defense to prevent the rich from being bad and the right from engaging in sabotage......

The article concludes by saying that to question the output of the experimental fields of the Kushuijing Commune is to question socialism and the party's leadership, and that the political and legal organs and the masses of the people must resolutely crack down on a handful of people with ulterior motives and severely punish them!

"Well written, hearty!" Yang Shugen was so shocked that he immediately asked a correspondent to call the propaganda director of the county party committee and ask him who wrote this article.

The propaganda minister was also puzzled, saying that there is no such talent in this county.

"You go to the newspaper office to check, and if necessary, let the county public security bureau come forward, and you must find out the author." Yang Shugen said.

The propaganda minister took the matter very seriously and immediately began to investigate, but the article was sent under a pseudonym, and there was no sender's address, and the newspaper did not know who the author was, so the criminal investigation brigade of the county public security bureau intervened, and used the postmark on the envelope to work backwards to find the specific mailbox, and then checked the people who lived nearby one by one, and a suspicious name quickly came into view.

This person's name is Ruan Mingchuan, a notorious rightist leader in the province, who once served as the leader of the provincial newspaper, and is a well-known old newspaper person, who was a famous reporter during the Beiyang period, and only such a person can write such a sharp manuscript.

The public security officers found Ruan Mingchuan, who is now a handyman at the county newspaper, and Ruan Mingchuan did not seem surprised by the visit of the police.

It is really strange that the rightist leaders actually wrote a draft praising the large-scale production of socialist agriculture, and neither the public security organs nor the propaganda department dared to issue it without authorization and report it to the secretary of the county party committee.

Yang Shugen said, there are too few pens in our county, and there is not enough strength in publicity, and there is a lack of people who can write such manuscripts.

The propaganda minister said: "But the rightists dare not use it." ”

Yang Shugen said: "It's okay, let him write, but you can't use his pen name, change the name, the manuscript has to go through three layers of approval, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper will read it first, and the propaganda department will look at it again. ”

The Minister of Propaganda said: "Secretary Yang still has a way. ”

……

After receiving the good news from Nantai County, the prefectural party committee and the provincial party committee decided to conduct on-the-spot inspections and personally accept the inspection, and the county immediately made arrangements after receiving the notice from the prefectural party committee.

Li Huazi devoted himself to the reception work with a hundred times the spirit, he temporarily set up a viewing platform near the wheat field, covered with a sunshade cloth, with a portrait of Chairman Mao in the middle, and white characters on both sides of the propaganda banners on a red background: "Agricultural harvest", "Industrial satellites." ”

The venue was full of red flags, gongs and drums were noisy, the little dolls were wearing brand new clothes, standing on both sides of the road with paper red flags, and the dogs of each family were firmly tied to prevent them from coming out to bite.

The leaders of all the communes in the county came to the bitter well in advance, and there were rows of bicycles parked next to the site, which were guarded by messengers, and you must know that each commune had a maximum of two bicycles, which was the most valuable property, and people with bad political components were not qualified to ride, so whoever could ride a bicycle to swagger through the city could get to heaven.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the commune's correspondent came at a gallop on a bicycle, jumped out of the car, panted and said: "Secretary, here, here!" ”

Li Huazi put his hand on the pergola and looked into the distance, the smoke and dust were billowing out, it was the convoy of the provincial and regional leaders coming, he hurriedly waved his hand: "Play music!" ”

The drum and bugle team of the commune middle school began to play, and the suona teams of various townships also began to play, and the march of the foreign drum and trumpet and the hundred birds and phoenixes of the suona were mixed together, how lively and lively it was.

The convoy is getting closer and closer, the first is the three-wheeled motorcycle of the county public security bureau, the back is the Gaz jeep of the county party committee, and then there is the imported car that is rarely seen by the countrymen, and it is not left over before the liberation, but the newly imported Soviet goods, the front of the car is a soaring Golden Deer logo, people who do not understand say that this is called the Golden Deer brand car, and those who know know that this is the Soviet Volga car, and there are only two cars in the entire Jiangbei area.

Li Huazi's heart fluctuated, he stepped forward quickly, and went straight to the Volga car, he wanted to help the leader open the door, how do you know how to pounce in front of him, but he will not open the door of this kind of high-end car, the accompanying guard got down from the co-pilot's seat, politely pushed Li Huazi aside, pulled the car door, and Zheng Zeru, the first secretary of the provincial party committee, got out of the car with a smile.

Zheng Zeru was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, straight trousers, shiny leather sandals, and an approachable smile, and took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Li Huazi: "You are Comrade Li Huazi, the champion of grain planting, right?" ”

Li Huazi was flattered, and held Secretary Zheng's hand tightly with both hands, but he didn't dare to hold it for too long, Secretary Zheng didn't care, and shook him for half a minute, reporters in the province took pictures one after another, and a photographer carried a bulky movie camera to record not far away.

"I can't wash my hands for at least half a year, and I have shaken hands with the secretary of the provincial party committee." Li Huazi thought to herself.

The regional leaders and the county leaders all got out of the car, and the group first climbed to the viewing platform to rest for a while, and Zheng Zeru said: "Xiao Yang, please introduce the situation." ”

Yang Shugen had already typed the draft, and said with a dry cough: "The Kushuijing Commune in our county has a bumper grain harvest, breaking the record of grain production since records began, which is the result of giving full play to the bold innovation of the communist style, the good teaching of Chairman Mao, and the result of the wise leadership of the provincial party committee and the prefectural party committee......

Zheng Zeru was not very interested in these clichés, but he listened patiently, and asked Li Huazi directly, "Secretary Li, can you introduce how you achieved such a bumper harvest?" For political reasons, Secretary Yang has already said, let's talk about the technical ones. ”

Li Huazi has also been prepared for a long time, he raised his voice lightly, and said in Nantai official dialect: "This experimental field of our commune, 18 times of land preparation, deep ploughing of more than 8 feet, a total of bottom fertilizer, top dressing five times, the fertilizer applied successively includes 3,000 catties of grass seeds, 1,000 quintals of pond mud, 400 quintals of Chen brick soil, 100 catties of ammonium sulfate, 80 catties of superphosphate, 60 quintals of water manure, and 180 catties of soybean cake. The bottom fertilizer is applied in layers in combination with the plough, and the fertilizer is applied layer by layer......"

This time, Zheng Zeru listened very carefully, and took notes from time to time, and the leaders of the prefectural party committee and the county exchanged words and ears, and their eyes were happy.

"I looked at the weather data of the Provincial Meteorological Observatory, and there has been a drought in Nantai for 90 days, how do you do drought prevention work?" Zheng Zeru suddenly asked a very sharp question.

Li Huazi said: "We have adopted the strategy of moving the seedlings to the water, moving the wheat seedlings to the areas where there is water, and the method of digging wells to irrigate water and fertilizer to the ground for the experimental fields is adopted. ”

Secretary Zheng said with a smile: "Your move is to despise the Heavenly Lord and kill the Dragon King." ”

Everyone was laughed at by the secretary's humorous words.

"Very good, then let's start the acceptance, what do you say?" Zheng Zeru looked left and right, and everyone nodded.

The county had already prepared a wheat cutting team, and the good hands of the communes were all gathered together, and the sickles were sharpened quickly, and they went down to the field at the first order, and hundreds of people cut the wheat together, and it still took a day and a night to complete the harvest.

The next day, the leaders re-took the stage, and most of the experimental fields had been harvested, leaving only a single piece of land to be left uncut for the visiting group from other places.

Five scales are ready to be weighed, the members go back and forth to weigh, there is a special person to supervise in front of the scales, poplar roots quietly gave Li Huazi a look, Li Huazi gestured to the members, so some people will have finished the pound of wheat stacks and moved back to weigh again, in order to increase the "output." ”

A staff member of the provincial party committee discovered this phenomenon and immediately walked to the stage and reported to Secretary Zheng with his ear.

The heart of the poplar root hung up at once.
