It had been ten days since Wang Ping returned to Yanchang County again.

As soon as he entered Yanchang County, Wang Ping was shocked by the picture he saw in front of him.

More than 100 people, men, women and children, dug ditches a kilometer from the river.

Men dig the soil, women, children, and the elderly are responsible for transporting the soil to the side in an orderly manner.

When I asked, I found out that the more than 100 people in front of me belonged to the same village, and everyone's land was also together, with a total of more than 120 acres of land. In order to allow the land far from the Yanhe River to be watered smoothly this year, it took only 10 days to complete a five-kilometer-long ditch.

In two days, a kilometre further along, the ditch will be connected to the Yan River. At that time, the water in the Yanhe River will only need to be transported into the ditch through a waterwheel, and the more than 100 acres of land in the village will no longer have to worry about drought.

Hurried to the county government, Wang Ping did not find Ouyang Antong, and only after asking did he know that she took the guards to a nearby village to investigate.

When I saw her, she was squatting at the entrance of the village and chatting with a few old people. However, my hands are not idle, and I keep writing down something in my notebook!

Wang Ping stood nearby, waiting for her to finish talking, put away her notebook, and then walked over.

Wang Ping...... You're finally here. If you don't come again, I'll send a guard to find you!" Seeing Wang Ping, Ouyang Antong showed a very surprised smile on his face, and his frowning brows were all stretched at this moment.

The guard next to him didn't know Wang Ping's specific identity, but he knew that Wang Ping was definitely not an ordinary cadre, so he hurriedly added.

"Chief, the pressure on County Magistrate Ouyang is too great, there are many things waiting for him to attack every day, and he also has to visit the village, and he has stayed up late every day for the past few days!"

"Xiao Li, don't say ......" Ouyang Antong hurriedly stopped the guards who were still going to continue.

Then he pulled Wang Ping and walked to the county government: "Wang Ping, don't listen to his nonsense, I must go to bed before eight o'clock every night, my mother is guarding here, I just don't dare to stay up late~ Go, let's go home now!" ”

"Eat first, then help me out!"

Seeing a large pile of documents on the table in the room, and then seeing the dense notebooks that had recorded more than a dozen pages, although Wang Ping did not stay here, it was conceivable that Ouyang Antong was definitely working harder here than in the arsenal at the beginning, and it was much harder.

At that moment, a trace of remorse appeared in Wang Ping's mind.

"An Tong, I'm getting more and more unclear now, whether the decision to let you enter the border district government as a county magistrate is right or wrong, you're too busy, you're too hard, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it!"

"It's okay, nothing at all, I can afford it!" Ouyang Antong hurriedly replied.

Then he replied with an affirmative face: "Wang Ping, I know that you are worried about my body, don't worry, I will definitely pay attention, and I like this job more and more now, after becoming the county magistrate, I slowly realized what it means to serve the people." The people down there are so miserable, I have to do something for them? ”

Hearing this, Wang Ping felt very impressed.

The wife in front of him is more mature, and the work makes him more and more comfortable.

"Okay, I've got your back!" Wang Ping affirmed.

Then he continued: "However, your workload is too large, and I think there is something wrong with your working methods...... As a county magistrate, you can't do everything in the county's food, clothing, housing and transportation for tens of thousands of people, you must learn to delegate power! ”

After glancing at the documents on the table, Wang Ping continued: "For example, the cash-for-work that is being launched in the county! ”

"As the county magistrate, you only need to put forward ideas and methods, and as for how to do it, you can leave it to the people below."

"I have known all those people in the county government, although Lao Yang has no culture, he is stable, but an old revolutionary, and he has a high consciousness. Replacing work for water conservancy construction is a matter related to 100,000 catties of grain, and it should be the most reassuring to hand it over to such an old revolutionary! ”

"What you need to do as a county magistrate is some big decisions. Of course, proper visits to understand the real situation of the common people are something that officials must do. After all, only by understanding the real situation of ordinary people can you make the right choice! ”

Ouyang Antong didn't speak, frowned and hesitated for almost a minute before answering: "You're right, I do manage too many things!" ”

"I'll take your opinion into account and see what to let go of and what not to let go!"

Then he changed the conversation and continued: "Let's not talk about these things for a while, I have a problem here, and I haven't thought of solving it for a long time!" ”

"After a few days of visiting, I found a problem, the land in Yanchang County is too barren. Under the same conditions, the same grain can yield more than 200 catties per mu in Shanxi, and a better one can produce 300 catties. However, here in Yanchang County, the best land yield is only 200 catties, and the average yield per mu is not even 150 catties. ”

"Now the problem of land shortage and water shortage is almost solved, and the biggest problem left is that the land in Yanchang County is too barren!"

"The first thing that came to my mind at that time was chemical fertilizers, which would improve the fertility of the land and thus increase food production by using chemical fertilizers to solve this problem."

"However, as soon as this idea appeared, I rejected it myself!"

"There are very few chemical fertilizers in China, and even if we want to buy them, we can't buy them. And the people are not familiar with this thing, plus fertilizer is expensive, after calculation, even if the use of chemical fertilizer, the increased yield of the land is not worth the cost of buying fertilizer! ”

"Then we'll make our own fertilizer, and it's free fertilizer!" Wang Ping replied without thinking about it.

In later generations, he saw this kind of thing a lot.

The so-called organic vegetables get their name from the fact that they use organic fertilizers instead of chemical fertilizers. At the beginning, organic fertilizer was not produced on a large scale as it was later, but the common people used human and animal manure, plus plant straw and leaves, to make their own farm fertilizer.

Although the effect of this fertilizer is not as good as that of chemical fertilizer, it is slow. But there is an advantage, after a long period of use, not only will not make the land compact, but will make the land more and more fertile, and improve the poor soil quality.

Because he lived in the countryside when he was a child, almost all of the vegetables grown in the countryside used this kind of homemade farm fertilizer, and Wang Ping often watched his parents make farm fertilizer, and he knew very well the process of making farm fertilizer with manure and straw.

"Impossible!" Ouyang Antong subconsciously retorted.

In her mind, fertilizers are products produced by various chemical means.

When you are poor and have nothing, how can you make such a high-end product that costs money, and it is free.

"I said yes!" Wang Ping is still as confident as ever.

"So, give me two hours, and two hours will give you a copy of how to make farm manure. As long as you learn it, every ordinary person can do it. Moreover, it can increase grain production by more than 10%, and it can also make the very barren land in Yanchang County more and more fertile! ”

Ouyang Antong fell in love with Wang Ping because of his rich knowledge and self-confidence, and seeing Wang Ping's face with a very confident smile again, Ouyang Antong suddenly changed from a strong woman to a little woman, and then chose to believe!
