"You haven't been here in a few days."

Li Weidong and Zhou Xiaobai were tired of being crooked for a long time, and then came to Zhou Ji's office.

The latter seemed to have known that he was coming to the farm for a long time, so he deliberately waited for Li Weidong here.

"I went out for a trip, how is the situation in the prison recently?"

Li Weidong explained casually.

"Deputy Captain Wang is in charge of discipline supervision, but he has made a lot of trouble, and with the support of the interrogation intelligence team, he can be regarded as a complete foothold."

Zhou Ji naturally knew what Li Weidong wanted to ask.

In fact, the recent movement in the prison has been a bit big about the discipline supervision.

However, what Zhou Ji thought was that the last time Wang Zhenyi came to Li Weidong, it was only after that day that the discipline supervision department became active.

Moreover, Xiang Tianming, who is currently in charge of the interrogation intelligence team, is clear who he is close to.

In addition, Li Weidong asked him to help with the things at that time, which made him understand whose hand it was all about.

It's just that he didn't feel pity in his heart.

After all, the current Li Weidong belongs to the training base, whether it is a prison or the Sixth Farm, for him, he is just a passerby.

If Li Weidong had stayed in prison, and if Xu Wen hadn't left so early, maybe a few years later, the young man in charge of the prison would have been the young man in front of him.

It's a pity that there are no ifs in this world.

And although Li Weidong left the prison, he is still the deputy captain, and the level is equivalent to the deputy captain of the prison.

And he, as the instructor of the Sixth Farm, is also one level lower than Li Weidong.

So you have no qualifications to judge anything.

"That's good, what's going on over there with Captain Zhang?"

Li Weidong nodded.

Although he gave Wang Zhenyi an idea at the beginning, the extent to which the other party can do it is not something he can control.

In addition, he went abroad for more than half a month, and he didn't know about the situation in the prison, so he came to ask Zhou Ji.

Although through Zhou Ji's words, Wang Zhenyi has now completely gained a firm foothold, but that Captain Zhang is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

"The captain is very supportive of Deputy Captain Wang's work."

Zhou Ji's face was slightly puzzled.

It seems that he also has some confusion.

"By the way, he also came here a week ago to inspect the Weidong No. 1 sweet potatoes planted in the experimental field, as well as the situation of the women's farm."

"Inspection?"

Li Weidong was thoughtful.

It stands to reason that with Zhang Xingwu's character, he will definitely not sit idly by and watch Wang Zhenyi make trouble, but he not only sat back, but even supported it unusually, there must be some reason for this.

Thinking of the other party's visit here, not only the planting situation of Weidong No. 1, but also the women's farm, he faintly thought of a possibility.

Today, the prison system is under the jurisdiction of the police.

Naturally, Zhang Xingwu also had to listen to orders from there.

Presumably, Zhao Yongliang of the training base and the one behind him who were taken away were also known to Zhang Xingwu.

Li Weidong's play played a role in killing chickens and monkeys to a certain extent, which made Zhang Xingwu jealous of him.

Whether it is Wang Zhenyi or Xiang Tianming, the relationship with him is well known.

Even the fact that Zhou Xiaobai is his girlfriend is not a secret.

Therefore, Zhang Xingwu's visit here is also a signal of goodwill.

This is also the reason why the other party did not turn his face with Wang Zhenyi, and even supported the other party's work.

Come to think of it, the other party is not willing to conflict with Li Weidong.

After all, Li Weidong is a little too discouraged in martial arts.

Who can stand this?

"I guess it's for you."

Although Zhou Ji didn't know what was happening at the training base, he knew that Zhang Xingwu didn't care much about the women's farm in the past.

This sudden concern clearly has a certain purpose.

Add to that all the previous things, and the answer is already obvious.

"I don't have such a big face, but I think the sixth farm is developing quite well, and it will soon become the first farm."

Li Weidong shook his head.

Whatever the truth, he didn't want to be too public.

And Zhou Ji just smiled.

"The Sixth Farm has developed so fast, thanks to you, the Meng Dayong you appointed before has a few brushes, not only the construction of the air-raid shelter is good, but also found a few wells on the farm, all of which have been pumped out of water, which can basically supply the farm's water.

As for the sixth farm, it is still too early to develop into the largest farm.

I talked to Captain Zhao before, the Sixth Farm still lacks something that can be handled, what do you think? ”

Zhou Ji couldn't help but ask.

He knew that Li Weidong had extraordinary insight and strong ability, otherwise he would not have been able to make a greenhouse, and even Professor Zhao was full of praise, otherwise the new variety cultivated this time would not be called Weidong No. 1.

"What do you have to offer?"

Li Weidong couldn't help but think about it when he was asked like this.

Anyway, he is still serving as the vice captain of the Sixth Farm, and the development of the Sixth Farm is also beneficial to him.

Although there is an orchard in the Sixth Farm, that bit of fruit can be regarded as a welfare, and it is simply unrealistic to make canned fruit.

As for the greenhouse, although it brought a lot of accolades to the sixth farm, even if a new sweet potato variety was bred, it was eventually planted on all farms.

In the farm, there are no patents, and other farms that grow Weidong No. 1 will not give the sixth farm a pound of grain.

That is, it has a good reputation.

In fact, in addition to farming, every farm will basically have some by-products, such as weaving some things, such as brick kilns, such as raising pigs.

But when it comes to the real side hustle, Li Weidong can't help but think of stepping on the sewing machine.

This is the famous prison industry in later generations.

Basically every prison is equipped.

But for now, whether it is cloth or sewing machine, it is still a luxury.

Now a sewing machine, about three or four hundred yuan, is much more expensive than a bicycle.

The so-called marriage three turns and one ring, that was also in the seventies, when the price of sewing machines was much cheaper.

Therefore, it is impossible for prisons to have hundreds of sewing machines at present, and there is no way to talk about the so-called stepping on sewing machines.

At the moment, the prison farm is more of a brick kiln.

But this thing, other farms basically have it, at most it is standard, not special at all.

"We can build a flour factory on our farm to make flour and noodles."

Li Weidong thought of Weidong No. 1, which has a higher starch content than ordinary sweet potatoes, and it is just right to make noodles.

What is certain is that with the large-scale cultivation of Weidong No. 1 on the farm in the coming year, the yield of sweet potatoes will also increase significantly.

Instead of handing in the sweet potato directly, it is better to make flour skin and vermicelli.

In this way, the Sixth Farm can use flour and vermicelli to exchange materials with other factories in the future, and it will also save a lot of worry in terms of welfare.

When Li Weidong was in the third farm before, he helped get a welfare benefit once, and he changed a lot of vermicelli.

And right now, vermicelli is also a good thing, and stewing a cabbage in winter is also a delicacy.

If Sixth Farm can produce vermicelli and vermicelli, it will definitely be able to do it.

"Powder Leather Factory?"

"Yes, this thing is not difficult to do, and it doesn't require any technology, get a few grinding machines, build a few starch sedimentation tanks, and you can make powder skin by hand in a steady stream."

Li Weidong thought about it, and many handicraft workshops in later generations produced powder skin in this way.

In the past, the reason why there was no farm to build a flour factory is not unexpected, mainly because the yield of sweet potatoes on the farm is not high, and it is far better to build a brick kiln to save worry, after all, the main material for the production of bricks is soil.

And in this wilderness, the last thing that is lacking is soil.

But with the planting of Weidong No. 1, this situation is bound to change dramatically.

After all, grain that can produce high yields, as long as you are not stupid, will rush to grow it.

"That's right, why didn't I think of it, with Pink Skin, our farm can exchange things with other factories, and the food tasks assigned by the prison can also be replaced by Pink Skin, and I can't say that we can make a wave."

Zhou Ji patted his thigh and said with excitement on his face.

Although it is now a planned economy, what to produce and how much to produce are all carried out with the task of shares.

But even if the Sixth Farm builds a powder factory, the scale cannot be too large, and it will have no impact at all.

And in this regard, the farm also has a certain degree of autonomy.

Even, the sweet potato residue left over from making flour skin can also be used to feed pigs, which is completely a double win.

As for making money, this kind of thing definitely can't be said on the surface, but no matter what, the Sixth Farm really wants to build a powder factory, and it is definitely promising.

At present, the newly improved sweet potatoes are planted on the sixth farm, and he knows better than anyone else the yield of these new varieties, which will inevitably be planted on a large scale in the future.

The sweet potatoes grown on six farms alone are basically enough.

If it really doesn't work, you can also go to the surrounding countryside to collect some, no money, just exchange it for powder, I believe those villages will be willing.

"Let's go, let's go to the captain together."

Zhou Ji immediately dragged Li Weidong to find Zhao Haifeng.

After all, the other party is the captain of the sixth farm, and this matter is indispensable to the other party.

However, with Zhou Ji's understanding of Zhao Haifeng, the other party will definitely not refuse this proposal.

Because the better the development of the Sixth Farm, the more face Zhao Haifeng, the captain, will have, which is a real achievement.

"I won't go over, just tell Captain Zhao about this little thing."

Li Weidong shook his head.

He just came up with some ideas, how to build it, how to build it, and how large-scale, naturally Zhao Haifeng had to discuss it with Zhou Ji, and Li Weidong didn't plan to get involved, mainly because for him, this kind of thing was really not interesting.

"That's right, a powder factory is not worth your appearance, but I will tell the captain that it was all your idea."

Zhou Ji paused, then nodded.

After all, the status is different, and the big thing in his eyes is just a trivial matter for Li Weidong.

The other party has already come up with an idea, and the rest of the matter is not a big problem.

Whether it is him or Zhao Haifeng, he can easily complete this matter.

"Instructor, we don't need to see each other like this, and anyway, I'm also a member of the Sixth Farm, and the Sixth Farm is developing well, and I have face on my face."

Li Weidong said.

"Hey, whether it's the Sixth Farm or the prison, it's still too small for you, it's actually better for you to jump out early."

Zhou Ji suddenly sighed.

Every time he saw Li Weidong, he felt old.

Subsequently, Zhou Ji pulled Li Weidong to chat for a while, and the latter left.

As soon as Li Weidong left here, Zhou Ji came to Zhao Haifeng's office on the back foot.

In fact, Zhao Haifeng also knew that Li Weidong was in Zhou Ji's office before, but he didn't show up.

"People are gone?"

Zhao Haifeng couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw Zhou Ji's face full of excitement.

"Well, just left, in fact, you don't need to deliberately keep your distance from Wei Dong."

Zhou Ji couldn't help but say.

What is Zhao Haifeng's mind, how could he not know?

If you really want to talk about it, Zhao Haifeng and Li Weidong had some contradictions at the beginning, and it ended with Gong Jiadong leaving.

Although he didn't say it, Zhou Ji knew that Zhao Haifeng was still a little unconvinced in his heart.

But this kind of thing is not something that he can resolve in a few words.

"That's good, after all, he basically doesn't come over now, even if there is something, isn't there still you? It's not appropriate for us in the Sixth Farm to be too close to him, otherwise I'm worried about what the captain will think. ”

Zhao Haifeng shook his head.

It is equivalent to not putting eggs in one basket.

If he is not blind, how can he not see the situation on the other side of the prison?

That's why Sixth Farm has to keep some distance.

"Okay, whatever you want, but this time we owe Wei Dong a favor."

Zhou Ji didn't say anything more.

"What favor?"

Zhao Haifeng asked suspiciously.

"Didn't we talk about doing something special on the farm last time? I asked Weidong just now, and he gave an idea to let us build a powder factory, and Professor Zhao also said before that the starch content of Weidong No. 1 is relatively high, and it is best to use it to make powder skin, and the yield will be higher.

We can take advantage of the fact that the rest of the farms have not reacted, build the powder factory first, and the powder skin produced in the future will offset the food task, and the farm will be much easier, and even the welfare of the farm in the future can also be exchanged for the powder skin. ”

Zhou Ji immediately said Li Weidong's idea.

"Powder Leather Factory? Will it work? ”

Zhao Haifeng's eyes widened suddenly.

"Why not? As far as I know, it's not difficult to make flour skin, and our farm plans to have 2,000 acres of land, and there will be a variety of sweet potatoes in the future, won't there be everything? ”

Zhou Ji said.

"This matter can't be rushed, anyway, it's still early in autumn, I'll go to a few powder factories first, if it's not difficult, let's build it."

Zhao Haifeng thought about it and said seriously.

His personality is relatively calm, so he doesn't do it regardless of the heat in his head.

"Okay, but don't make a noise about this matter for now, I'm worried that other farms will listen to the letter and rush ahead of us."

Zhou Ji nodded and expressed his concerns.

After all, the farm is mainly handed over grain, and there are planned tasks every year, which is different from the brick factory.

After all, as long as there are people in the brick factory, it is enough, and it does not delay the cultivation of food.

The powder factory, on the other hand, consumes food.

Even if it is a prison, at most it is agreed that a farm will build a flour factory, and any more will affect the food task.

Such a good opportunity must not be cheap on other farms.

Just as the two were discussing, Li Weidong saw that it was not far from the end of work, and simply drove the jeep back to the courtyard.
