Chapter 1120 Training
"No, girl, you want to buy a hundred yuan worth of honey? Honey in my hometown is fifty-five cents a pound, do you know that? A hundred yuan means nearly two hundred pounds, right?"

Lu Miao had a good idea, but he didn't know that in his hometown in the south, Hu Zhiyuan, who had already moved into an independent small office, was so shocked that he put down the can and cup in his hand.

While scratching his head, he held the phone and said in embarrassment:
"Let's not talk about whether you can use so much honey to give away. Even if Tianzao's family only started beekeeping this year, and it's already autumn, she may not be able to get 100 or 200 kilograms of honey!"

Lu Miao remained silent for a moment.

She really hadn't considered this issue.

She enjoyed the honey that Tianzao sent her last time, but the quantity was too little and not enough to share with people around her.

I was thinking about buying more this time, not only to support Tianzao's business, but also to share some with my relatives and friends after I get the goods back.

After listening to Hu Zhiyuan's words, Lu Miao stroked his forehead and put his five fingers into his hair to smooth it back and said:
"Then it's up to you. If you don't have one that costs a hundred dollars, then fifty or eighty will do. Anyway, if you have beeswax, you must bring it to me. I need that stuff."

Hu Zhiyuan quickly responded:
"Hey, sure! I'll take some time tomorrow to take care of this. Oh, by the way, what should we buy for Uncle He and Aunt He? The county shipped a lot of Red Fuji apples over a few days ago. Can we buy those?"

"Okay, see if there's anyone selling bananas. They're old and their teeth probably aren't very good, so buy some soft and chewy ones, and some milk powder... The hospital in northern Beijing can write a prescription for cod liver oil. If you see a place in the county that can buy it, buy some too."

"Okay, don't worry, leave this matter to me, I will definitely do it for you!"

"Please make this trip."

"Well, you look at what you said, isn't it a bit strange?"

Hu Zhiyuan was laughing on the other end of the phone and wanted to chat with Lu Miao when someone outside called out "Director Hu".

Hu Zhiyuan glanced outside, covered the microphone and lowered his voice:
"Okay, sister. I wanted to chat with you again, but it's not a good time these two days. The city leaders are here for a meeting. They're calling someone outside right now, so I have to go check it out... But you don't have to worry about this. I'll call you back as soon as I have news in two days!"

Lu Miao also heard the noise on the other end of the phone and knew that he was busy, so he didn't say much and hung up after saying a few quick words.

Hu Zhiyuan ran around to assist the reception leader, and the next day he took some free time to go to Dahe Village and the production team with the things and money.

"Sister Tianzao, you can use the honey as you like. If you don't have that much, just use as much as you can. Also, there's beeswax. I don't know what my sister wants it for, but she said it's useful. If you have some, give her some!"

When he arrived at Tianzao's house, Hu Zhiyuan handed over the money truthfully and conveyed Lu Miao's words.

But in addition to these, Hu Zhiyuan mentioned something else:
"One more thing. Aren't you a teacher at the elementary school on your team? How many children are there in your team's elementary school? Count the number of children and tell me later."

Tianzao's father-in-law is a grassroots village official, and Tianzao is a teacher on the team, so Hu Zhiyuan did not hide it from her and told her the truth directly:
"The other day, the city sent a leader here. At the county meeting, they said that in the future, we need to focus on education. We must not only make it universal, but also improve the quality of teaching! When the children go to school, they will be given a certain amount of tuition and miscellaneous subsidies!"

In June this year, the state issued a document requiring that education be gradually universalized across the country in the next few years.

It is for this matter that the city-level leaders went down to the grassroots rural counties in batches.

However, China is so large that we cannot say that education will be fully popularized throughout the country even in the 21st century, let alone at this time.

Remote towns and villages have always been easily overlooked in terms of resource allocation, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

What was mentioned at the county meeting two days ago were the primary and secondary schools in the county and town communes.

No one paid any attention to the primary schools and red education classes in the brigade below. The reason why the primary school in the brigade led by Tianzao was able to break through the siege and stand out was due to some very realistic reasons.

Because there were two powerful figures under their team.

Without mentioning what achievements those two people have made now, just to put it simply, who hasn’t heard of the provincial top scholars in the first few years and the public officials in H Province?
Although popularization is extremely difficult, who wouldn't want to sell those two people a good deal?
In her hometown in the south, Zaohua and her father-in-law actively responded to the policy during the day, and went home at night to prepare to collect honey with her husband.

It can be said that I was completely immersed in busyness.

On the other side, Beijing North.

In early December, Lu Miao handed over the edited and spliced ​​promotional tapes to Minister Zhan.

After Minister Zhan reviewed it and confirmed that there were no problems, the International Affairs Group of the British Socialist Agency passed it on to comrades in foreign embassies in the United States. Only then did Lu Miao's work for this period come to an end.

No longer having to rush to catch up with the work progress, Lu Miao suddenly had some free time.

I arrange my time reasonably on daily basis, and occasionally accompany a few children to the Children's Palace to attend interest classes on weekends.

During his work, his social circle continued to expand, and directly or indirectly, Lu Miao also came into contact with some prominent figures in the Beijing northern circle.

She is always cold and aloof in front of outsiders.

First, the nature of her work involves sensitive information, and her social aspects require many choices and considerations.

The second is that she herself is not really interested in making friends with anyone.

However, she would also pay extra attention to things like which family is doing foreign-funded business, or what rare resources the family has, such as horse farms, golf courses, etc.

She usually doesn't have much time to spend with her children, so when she has free time occasionally, she will take them to these places for a visit.

It is always good to have many skills, and there is no harm in cultivating some things from a young age.

Of course, in addition to accompanying his children to high-end occasions, Lu Miao also did not forget to cultivate his children's social skills.

We moved to a new house this year, and the area for building a greenhouse in the yard is much larger than before.

The amount of vegetables and strawberries grown is several times more than in previous years.

This period of time is when the greenhouse-grown strawberries are ripe.

We can pick a large basin of them every day at home, but even then we still can’t eat all of them.

Seeing that there were more and more ripe strawberries, which would rot in the field if they were not eaten, Lu Miao took some time to pick two large basins and asked the child's father to take them to the factory yard.

For the rest, she took the children into the greenhouse to pick them.

Afterwards, after cleaning up the food along with some vegetables, Lu Miao asked the children to take their small stools and baskets and go to the small alley market on Chang'an East Street to set up a stall to sell their goods.
