118 Chapter 118
The next day, the four of them broke up, Fu Hang and the three went to the tractor factory to study, and Zhao Ke and Zhao Rui went to see the seeds. Zhao Rui is a student of the College of Agriculture, and directly led Zhao Ke to the head of the department. Someone is easy to do, and Zhao Ke's little name is also easy to use.
The two sides exchanged a few words of greeting, and the head of the department recommended soybeans and corn seeds to her, and when it came to rice seeds, she gushed endlessly.
"The current research direction is mainly to solve the problem of food and clothing for the people in our country. The new varieties were popularized the year before last, and the production was very high for two years in the south. This year, our province has increased the index of test fields, and the area where your brigade is located has not been divided into test fields, but you can take the initiative to apply, there is a reduction and exemption policy, is Comrade Zhao interested?"
"Yes!"
Zhao Ke's eyes were shining.
As long as there is a bargain, those who come will not refuse.
"Our brigade is willing to apply."
The head of the department told her to go to the provincial Ministry of Agriculture.
Zhao Ke and Zhao Rui were transferred to the Ministry of Agriculture by car, and they needed to fill in a lot of information, and they had to have the seals of the commune and the brigade. Zhao Ke habitually built a good relationship, borrowed a phone, and contacted the commune.
It takes two or three days at the earliest, and the seeds cannot be sent down immediately.
Secretary Duan said to Zhao Ke on the phone: "Bring the materials back and seal them, and when the time comes, the commune will help you do it, and you will have time for spring ploughing."
Zhao Ke thanked him, hung up the phone, and filled in directly here, if there is a problem, you can ask the officer clearly, fill it out and take it away, saving time when there is a mistake.
The officer had a good chat with her, and then remembered something and told her: "This year, the capital will hold a national professional pig breeding training.
This is the first session, our province has a limited number of places, and you can sign up if the pig farm reaches the specifications, how many pigs have you raised in your brigade?"
"Thirty-three."
The officer nodded and said, "Qualified, do you want to report?"
"Report!"
The officer gave her a registration form, "Just fill out the collective, write the name of your commune and brigade, and the department leader will select the list and notify you when the time comes."
"Okay."
Zhao Ke filled in as she said, handed it back to her, and thanked her: "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known, thank you so much."
This kind of quota is quite scarce, and it is generally not sent out in a big way, on a first-come, first-served basis
Well, then wait until the training starts and the newspapers report on it, and then you don't know that there is such a thing, and even many people don't know about it at all.
Inevitably suspected of bribery, Zhao Ke could only verbally thank him one after another.
The officer smiled: "Coincidentally, Comrade Zhao, you are here today, and the registration period will be over if you are late."
"It seems that I am indeed lucky, I came by chance, and the comrades who received us were also warm-hearted." In the afternoon, Zhao Ke and Zhao Rui went to order soybeans and corn seeds, and today's matter is temporary. In the evening, Fu Hang and the three returned.
Fu Hang asked Zhao Ke: "How is it?" Did it go well today?" Zhao Kedao: "Not only is it smooth, but there are also unexpected gains." Lin Haiyang was curious, "What windfall?"
"You can apply for a rice test field, and the province will provide seeds, and you can deliver enough rice after the autumn harvest." Zhao Ke was in a good mood, "Also, I went to the Ministry of Agriculture and heard that the state organized a professional pig training, and I signed up."
"That's great!"
Lin Haiyang glanced at Fu Hang and said deliberately: "We also have a good thing, let Fu Hang tell you." Zhao Ke looked at Fu Hang, "What's the good thing?"
Fu Hang said: "Today, the tractor factory collects second-hand tractors, there is a very large old tractor, which can be used when you pack it up, I discussed with them, our brigade will buy it cheaper, so that it is convenient to pull things back."
Zhao Ke was happy, "There has to be a tow bucket, if only the walk-behind tractor was equipped with a tow bucket."
They drove back by themselves, and they could save money for tickets and hire a car to pull seeds, and the cost of buying a tow bucket must be higher, but the tow bucket was left and could continue to be used in the future, so it was not a loss.
Fu Hang nodded, "In the past two days, I'll ask more, there should be a tractor factory." Zhao Ke suddenly laughed, "We are really like relatives from the countryside who came to the city to fight the autumn wind."
Fu Hang took it for granted: "Doing business and talking about business, the reason why we 'talk' is to compete for profits, and we didn't force us to buy." Zhao Ke raised his eyebrows.
Lin Haiyang squeezed his eyebrows at Chen San'er, and whispered: "Fu Zhiqing and Director Zhao are the same now." Zhao Ke and Fu Hang both heard it and looked at him at the same time.
Lin Haiyang immediately changed his words: "I mean 'like-minded', we are all like-minded."
On the third day of Zhao Ke's arrival in the provincial capital, Zhao Jianguo took her off and took her to buy other things.
The money on her waist is more than her budget, she went to buy more than half of the tractor, and she went a lot to buy seeds, and on the third day, she kept repeating the action of taking out the money, and then she was left behind
There is no need to stuff back the cloth pocket tied around the waist.
And with this little money, after buying diesel, and then buying pigs, there is no hair left. Truly experience what it means to spend money like water.
Zhao Ke's flesh hurts.
On the fourth day, Zhao Ke had nothing to buy, so he went to the College of Agriculture in the morning to ask the head of the department about a lot of rice planting, and in the afternoon, he went to the Ministry of Agriculture and dug up two large bundles of materials from there.
She left the Ministry of Agriculture, went to the newspaper office again, got two bundles of letters, and by the way, with the help of Professor Su's deputy editor-in-chief and her fading heat, she asked if she could give her some old newspapers and magazines that she didn't want.
Zhao Ke was a celebrity for the first time, and he had no experience and was reserved for a day.
But the image of this thing, put it down, let it go, let it go, let it go, it's easy. Just do it, some details, not important.
When the newspaper staff heard her ask for old newspapers, their eyes were a little strange, "Yes, are you going to take them back and paste the wall?"
"No, our brigade is eradicating the illiteracy of the members, and we don't have money to buy books and other reading materials, so I have to buy all kinds of newspapers and documents from the county revolutionary committee and the commune...... Let them know about the world. "
The staff's eyes changed suddenly, and they said in admiration: "If the old newspaper can help with literacy, it makes so much sense! I'll ask the director for instructions and take you to the storeroom. "
"I'm in trouble." Zhao Ke jokingly laughed at himself, "This is my personal behavior, don't think that our brigade is so dead." The staff shook their heads, "No, you're a good cadre." Zhao Ke just smiled and didn't say anything.
I don't know how the staff 'propagandized', but when Zhao Ke left, they drew a lot of them, involving politics, people's livelihood, popular science, and literature...... So much so that she couldn't move alone, and needed the newspaper staff to help her get on the bus.
"Comrade Zhao, do you have someone to pick you up when you get out of the car?"
Zhao Ke glanced at the sky and reported
It takes nearly an hour to drive to the guest house where she lives, and Fu Hang and they should come back.
Yes.
Approaching the end of work, after two stops, there were more and more people on the bus, and the passengers came up to take a look at Zhao Ke and the stack of things at her feet.
Zhao Ke was afraid of affecting other passengers, so he leaned over and used his body to help him all the way. When the bus arrived, Fu Hang was waiting for her on the platform.
"Fu Zhiqing, come up and help me move." Zhao Ke apologized to the driver in front of him and the remaining passengers, "We won't delay too long.
The driver waved his hand,
4; All right.
Fu Hang took a step on his long legs, and he bundled it at once, Zhao Ke and the two of them went back and forth three times, and they all moved down in just a few minutes. On the last trip, Zhao Ke thanked the people in the car and hurried down.
The guest house is still some distance away from the site, Fu Hangdao: "I'm guarding here, you go back first, ask Lin Haiyang and Chen San'er to come and get it, you don't have to make another trip."
Let's get it faster.
Zhao Ke carried two bundles of letters back to the guest house first.
After a while, three people came over and carried them all back to the guest house at once.
On the fifth day of Zhao Ke's arrival in the provincial capital, they were ready to return.
Fu Hang and the three of them also practiced driving a tractor a little, and Chen San'er mainly practiced driving a walk-behind tractor. Chen San'er was a novice on the road and did not dare to enter the city, so the walk-behind tractor could only stop at the tractor factory first.
Zhao Ke drove a four-wheeled tractor relatively smoothly, so she first took three young men to pick up tools, newspapers and other things, and sent them back to the trailer of the walk-behind tractor, and then went to pick up the stored seeds, and returned together after meeting.
The female driver drove the tractor, and in particular, two young men sat on either side of her, one on the left and one on the right, and the more she went, the more eye-catching she was, and the farther away from the provincial capital, the more eye-catching.
In the past few days, the road has basically dried, but the road condition is too poor and there are potholes.
Zhao Ke drove recklessly, galloping on the grassland, and she drove a tractor on the groundbreaking road.
Fu Hang and Lin Haiyang swayed from side to side, up and down, holding her backrest with their hands, for fear that they would be thrown out at any moment.
Lin Haiyang couldn't stand the double torture of body and spirit, and strongly asked for rotation, but he didn't dare to say anything about her, and only said in a heartfelt voice, "I want to practice."
It's a pity that the road conditions can't be changed, he drives carefully, the speed is too slow, and the bumps are still bumpy, which is even more torturous. Zhao Ke still drove the longest.
They haven't navigated yet, so they all rely on Fu Hang to ask for directions with a highway map. The four of them switched back and forth, and they didn't dare to sleep at night for fear of losing things, so it took five days to get to their county.
The trailers of the two tractors were full, and the pigs could not be bought together, so the four of them did not stop in the county, and continued to drive abruptly towards the commune.
If you go to the commune, you can simply go back to the village again.
"Sudden ......"
The loud sound of the tractor breaking the silence of Zhao Cun'er late at night.
Starting from the second aunt Zhao Lianhua's house and Sun Da Niang's house at the entrance of the village, everyone who heard the movement was woken up
Come out and see. Mr. and Mrs. Zhao Lianhua and Mrs. Sun stood on the road outside the gate.
What's going on?
"Did you hear that, too? Not anymore. "It seems to have gone to the brigade compound.
Second Uncle Liu Heping asked tentatively: "How do I listen...... Like the sound of a tractor?"
In a word, there was silence for a moment, and the four of them didn't care that it was now in the middle of the night, and they couldn't see anything clearly in the dark, so they hurriedly ran to the courtyard with their shoes pulled.
Uncle Sun's shoes ran off, ran back and hooked his feet, and continued to run.
And Zhao Xinshan and Niu Jiang's family were near the compound, and the two families heard the sound of the tractor, and after being stunned, they arrived at the compound before them.
Uncle, why don't you come out again with some clothes? How cold it is at night, don't freeze.
Not cold. Zhao Xinshan answered Zhao Ke perfunctorily, threw himself on the small four-wheeled tractor, and asked in surprise while touching, Why is it four-wheeled? Didn't you say you were going to get the two walk-behind tractors back?"
Zhao Kedao: "With a cheeky idea, Fu Zhiqing and the three of them made a great effort, but they spent some more money than the budget."
Zhao Xinshan asked: "Have you bought all the seed tools or something?"
I bought it, but the pig didn't buy it, and it couldn't be loaded.
Zhao Xinshan said: "I've bought everything that should be bought, what's the point of spending more money." Li Hehua and Qu Qianqian's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came over with a lamp and a cotton coat.
Li Hehua complained to him: "It's a good thing to freeze, it's up to you to do it." As he spoke, he put on a cotton coat.
Zhao Xinshan's heart was hot, he couldn't care about the cold of Kaichun'er's frozen bones at all, took the kerosene lamp, looked at the tractor carefully, and his eyes were more affectionate than when he first married his daughter-in-law.
Accountant Niu was dressed neatly, and when he saw these two tractors, his eyes were also full of excitement, This, this...... This is the tractor of our brigade?
Zhao Ke patted the front of the car, If it is fake, I will write the name of our Zhao Cun'er brigade in the future. Accountant Niu asked, "You drove it back?" Lin Haiyang and Chen San'er opened their tired eyes, and their tones couldn't hide their smugness, We opened it instead!
That's nice! That's nice......
Aunt Sun, Zhao Lianhua and others came over, and other members came over one after another, and with their excited voices, more and more people came around in the middle of the night, and even the members who lived farther away came.
since
Everyone is up, it doesn't matter if it's dark or not, unload the car. A group of people are in full swing.
Zhao Ke couldn't bear it, and Fu Hang and the others were all tired. Uncle, specifically, I'll talk to you again tomorrow.
Zhao Xinshan couldn't take care of her, so he dusted his hand twice, You go back to sleep quickly, let's clean up. Zhao Ke didn't have the strength to agree, turned around and left.
Fu Hang and the three of them all followed her.
That's right......
Zhao Ke stopped, Fu Hang and the others also subconsciously stopped and looked back.
Zhao Xinshan said: The day before yesterday, Zhao Mian came back and said that your uncle called the bearing factory, and your grandmother was going to bring her three grandchildren back. Zhao Ke was surprised, "Why is it so sudden? Are you coming back to visit your family?"
No. Zhao Xinshan said, "It was said that your grandmother was going to let the children go back to our brigade to go to school, and Xiujiang and the two of them had been cleaning up your grandmother's house for two days.
Zhao Ke didn't know why, but she was tired and sleepy now, and her brain didn't like to move. Nothing is important to sleep now, she can't wait to lie down on the hot kang in the house, and the rest...... We'll talk about it tomorrow.
