Chapter 18: The Gap

Zhou Houjian was silent for a moment and asked, "Secretary Li, what do you want to do?" Need to invest so much? Isn't it just planting thousands of acres of land and raising thousands of pigs and sheep? Half of the county is out, and the farmers are the remaining half, does our town government need to invest tens of millions? It can't be, right? Even if we sell all the town government, we won't be able to make so much money."

Li Yi said with a smile: "The above task naturally has to be completed, however, I still have some ideas of my own, Mayor Zhou, the reason why I haven't talked to you is because my idea is not very mature, and I need relevant experts to come to demonstrate before I can form a specific approach, and then I will discuss with you again." ”

Zhou Houjian said: "But everyone has been driven away by you."

Li Yi said: "If the person is gone, you can find it again." However, we must not allow people who do not know the so-called to interfere with us, and even mislead us about what is suitable for planting on the land of the willow forest, and what is suitable for raising in the mountains of the willow forest, only real scholars and experts can help us find the answer."

Zhou Houjian said: "This thing, you go to consult the local farmers, isn't it faster?" ”

Li Yi said: "People don't necessarily know their own strengths and weaknesses, farmers who work the land every day don't necessarily know what their land is most suitable for planting, they just follow the inheritance of their ancestors and plant like this from generation to generation." They didn't know that if the land was not planted with sweet potatoes and corn instead, the harvest would be better and more profitable. ”

Zhou Houjian snorted, and couldn't help but look at this young man with admiration, of course, he wouldn't think that Li Yi's idea could be realized. He was even less convinced that farmers who had been farming for generations did not know their land better than a few experts who had come from afar. He was just amazed that Li Yi could say this theory

Just when Li Yi was going to go to the provincial capital in person and find another expert, several uninvited guests quietly came to Liulin, they did not notify the Liulin Town Government in advance, nor did they notify Li Yi himself, but went straight to Li Yi's office.

Li Yi looked at these middle-aged men who were dressed plainly but by no means looked like local farmers, and asked with some confusion, "What's the matter with you?" ”

The first person said: "I am Gong Weiguo of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and these are my colleagues." You are Comrade Li Yi, Secretary of the Party Committee of Liulin Town, right? ”

Li Yi said: "I am Li Yi, but hasn't the vice president of your Academy of Agricultural Sciences already gone back?" ”

Gong Weiguo said: "Vice president? Impossible, when we came, several vice presidents were in the courtyard, which one do you say? ”

Li Yi suddenly said: "You are from the capital?" ”

Gong Weiguo said: "Of course we are from the capital, didn't you call us to come?" ”

Li Yi said happily: "Oh, I listened to your tone at the time, and I was cold and indifferent, I thought you weren't coming, Director Gong, please sit down, comrades, please take a seat."

Gong Weiguo said: "We are all very busy, and a small place like yours would not have been able to spare time, but since you have proposed the concept of mixed cultivation of multiple crops, it happens that this is my main research topic, so I will come down and take a look." We don't have much time, so let's start working right away, you arrange someone and take us down to have a look. ”

Li Yi said: "I'll take you down, please rest assured, I'm very familiar with the countryside."

Gong Weiguo said: "Before going to the countryside, do some preparations. ”

Gong Weiguo asked Li Yi to bring a map of Liulin Town, divided the town into a small grid of grids, took a red pen and clicked in the small grid above, randomly selected a hundred places in the town, and said: "Go to these places to take soil samples, and take samples from fields, fields, and mountains and forests." We have to do a detailed test and test of the local soil before we can determine what crops are suitable for you."

Li Yi listened, nodded and smiled: "This is easy to do." I'll arrange for someone to get it done as soon as possible. ”

Gong Weiguo said: "No, we have to take samples ourselves, we also have to analyze the local climate, we need detailed weather information in Liulin Town within ten years, and ......."

Li Yi saw their rigorous work attitude and put his mind at ease, this is a group of people who really do things

The collected soil samples were quickly sent back to the capital for testing and testing, and while waiting for the results, Gong Weiguo and others stayed in the countryside of Liulin, doing various inspections and records in the fields every day.

Li Yi accompanied almost the whole process, followed the members of the expert group, and learned a lot of knowledge about agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry.

He learned that egg whites can treat lung fever in sheep, and that big sheep need two egg whites and small sheep only need one.

I also know the home remedies for curing rotten hooves of cultivated cattle, with an appropriate amount of ginger, garlic, mugwort leaves, houttuynia cordata, and stone calamus mixed and mashed for external application, it can be cured in three to five days.

He is like a studious student, when he catches a question he doesn't understand, he will break the casserole and ask to the end. He followed behind the experts, willing to be a waiter with a bag and a pen, just begging the experts to say more about a few professional knowledge that he didn't understand.

After comparing the inspection results, they put forward scientific suggestions for the development of planting and breeding in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery in Liulin, and provided a specific written report.

Li Yi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and at the most haode restaurant in town, he invited a group of experts.

Zhou Houjian didn't expect that Li Yi actually invited the big experts of the Beijing Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and before the banquet came out so quickly, he asked Li Yi: "Secretary Li, the people in the province are all asking for such a high price, and this one from the capital will not offer a sky-high price, right?" ”

Li Yi didn't have a bottom in his heart, and said: "I haven't talked to them about the remuneration yet." I'll be at the wine table later, and I'll make this clear by the way."

After three rounds of drinking, Li Yi said: "Director Gong, thank you so much to the comrades of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, I have sent us jishu and services from thousands of miles away, and I have been saying it every day, and now it is time to say something substantial." Regarding the issue of this subsidy, I don't know what standard your Academy of Agricultural Sciences is? ”

Gong Weiguo was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "What kind of subsidy, we don't need to have research funds." This time, it should be regarded as a research project, Secretary Li, your willow forest is a fertile land, the natural conditions are excellent, especially in the area of Wucun and Fenghuang Mountain's Gaoshan Village, which has a sandy loam soil rich in organic matter, good water permeability, and strong water retention capacity, especially suitable for planting red heart kiwifruit, this fruit, but the big brother with vitamin C content in the fruit category is very economically promising."

Li Yi said: "The area is huge, what about the problem of being able to grow a lot of kiwifruit? ”

Gong Weiguo said: "Red heart kiwifruit, it is in short supply in the market, how many goods you have, I can call someone to take it away for you"

Li Yixi said: "If there is such a good thing, then your Director Gong is the great benefactor of our people in Liulin."

Gong Weiguo said with a smile: "Secretary Li, I still have an idea, our Academy of Agricultural Sciences is looking for a cooperative Shiyan base, I think your Liulin Town is a top choice, one is that your local leaders attach great importance to science jishu, and the other is that the conditions of the land itself are very good, and the soft and hard environment are in line with the conditions for the establishment of Shiyan base." If you agree, this matter is so decided, our Academy of Agricultural Sciences will be stationed here for a long time, send special personnel on duty, and if there are any new research projects, we will give priority to Shiyan here, of course, in order to thank your local government and people for their cooperation, we will provide a considerable amount of cooperation funds every year. Although the number is not much, it is also a piece of heart. ”

After Gong Weiguo finished speaking, he looked at Li Yi with a smile.

Li Yi and other leaders of Liulin didn't expect that there would be such a haode pie smashed down out of thin air, not only did they not have to pay a penny, but they could also get a sum of money for nothing, and the Academy of Agricultural Sciences would also send people here for a long time, where to find such a haode thing in the world?

Li Yi said with a smile: "Director Gong, don't say anything, I'll give you a drink"

Zhou Houjian and other members of the town party committee who accompanied the wine excitedly raised their wine glasses and toasted to the experts one by one.

Gong Weiguo drank Li Yijing's wine, but he didn't treat others so well, he directly covered the wine glass with his palm, and said, "It's small, it's enough."

People came from the capital to help, and the level was high, and the members of Liulin were not able to persuade much, but they all left a mark in their hearts, that is, Li Yi, the new secretary, is not simple

After Li Yi came to Liulin, he got up early every morning, washed up, and ran around the old bluestone street until he reached the big playground of Liulin Middle School, played basketball with a few teachers there for a while, and then ran back.

On this day, Li Yi got up early to exercise as usual and came back, and when he ran to the gate of the town government compound, he saw Zhou Houjian yawning and walking over with a briefcase.

As soon as Zhou Houjian saw Li Yi, he took the initiative to shout: "Secretary Li, wait"

Li Yi stopped and asked, "Mayor Zhou, is there something?" ”

"That planting and breeding thing, are you going to arrange the work? If we don't do it, we will be too late, and the piglets will have been planted in Fenglin Town for a long time, and they will all be pulled back to the town," Zhou Houjian said.

"Oh, then send a notice and hold a meeting of the whole town and village cadres."

"What is the specific method, is it to study it at the town committee meeting first?"

"No need to research, I already have jihua, and I'll announce it at the town-wide convention then." After Li Yi finished speaking, he ran in.

"Hey Secretary Li, this is not good...... Zhou Houjian shouted after him, but Li Yi just raised his hand and made an "OK" gesture.

Zhou Houjian came to the office with a straight face. Zhou Lei followed in and made him a cup of tea.

Zhou Houjian took a sip of the teacup, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, he snorted coldly, and said: "This Li Yi, I don't know how to do such a big thing, he is so authoritarian and arbitrary, and he doesn't discuss it with me" made up his mind and wanted to rectify Li Yi again.
