Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

Chapter 132 Zero Experience Bomb Disposal

"Third brother, the trees in our team are growing very fast."

But in the [afforestation area], the iron rule of ten years to grow a tree seems to be possible to be broken.

Pan Lianhua discovered that the saplings cultivated by the team grew very fast. The two-year-old trees were even thicker and taller than other three-year-old trees.

"Due to different natural environments, the growth cycles of trees will also vary, which is normal."

Fang Wei responded calmly. No one in the team talked about this kind of thing anymore.

Everyone accepted the idea that Team 2's soil and water were special. While other trees took ten years to grow, Team 2's trees took five. While other trees blossomed and bore fruit in five years, Team 2's trees should only blossom and bear fruit in two to three years.

"Yeah, Team Two has good feng shui."

Pan Lianhua didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and even brought up the theory of Feng Shui.

Fang Wei did not correct her. Good feng shui and good soil and water mean the same thing.

"In a few years, the team will have a large chestnut forest and a large tea tree forest, and some loquat trees will be dotted on the hillside. The feng shui will get better and better."

Fang Wei felt very satisfied and continued walking towards the oil tea forest while pulling Pan Lianhua.

"Captain Fang, are you here to inspect the work?"

Not long after walking out, the two met Xie Wang on the hillside.

Xie Wang is now also a member of the breeding sideline group. He is responsible for the daily management of the tea oil tree forest. At the same time, he will eliminate severely degraded tea oil trees according to the schedule and transplant wild varieties of tea oil tree seedlings.

The "lazy guys" back then can now basically get 9-10 points in work points, which is really impressive.

"I'm just taking a look. Xie Wang, aren't you tired of managing such a large forest by yourself?"

"Not tired, not tired. Thank you to the team for taking care of me. I will definitely perform well."

Xie Wang grinned, he was very satisfied with his current life.

Fang Wei didn't talk much with the other party, and then went to the team's oil tea forest with Pan Lianhua.

"Third brother, this forest is no longer viable. The trees are severely degraded and will have to be cut down in the future."

Pan Lianhua used to hang out in the deep mountains and forests all day long, so he had some knowledge about forests.

"Yes, we'll try to replace all of these old teapots within eight years. The wild tea trees I found in the mountains are of excellent quality. Once they're completely replaced, we estimate the tea seed yield will increase by more than 8%."

Having said that, it is actually the effect of attribute bonus, not that the wild tea oil tree varieties are so amazing.

After going around in circles like this, Fang Wei had a general idea of what was going on.

In the next few years, the team's oil tea seed production will decrease year by year. The wild oil tea seeds in the deep mountains and old forests can make up for part of the deficit, but the mountains are high and the roads are long, so it is difficult.

the next day.

He arranged some people to start pressing rapeseed oil.

"Third brother, we locals are not used to eating rapeseed oil. It would be a waste to share so much rapeseed oil with everyone. It would be better to sell it for money."

"It's their problem if they can't get used to it. In the next few years, it will be hard to guarantee tea oil for the team. You can figure it out for yourself."

Fang Ping suggested that the team sell the rapeseed oil they squeezed out, after all, the locals had no habit of eating rapeseed oil.

But Fang Wei was unmoved. In the past, people were afraid to add oil when cooking. It is better now, but it is far from the time to be picky.

33000 kilograms of rapeseed were squeezed out to produce about 10000 kilograms of rapeseed oil. Each person in the team received an average of 50 kilograms, and the rest was kept as stock.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t like the taste of it, you can exchange it for money or trade it for other cooking oil.

What happens next is none of his business. He is just the team leader of the production team, not everyone’s babysitter.

Facts have proved that people these days are not that pretentious.

Everyone can always find the correct way to use rapeseed oil, such as frying things, pan-frying fish, etc., and tea oil is only used when cooking.

There are always more solutions than problems, and everyone has a strong ability to adapt.

After distributing the rapeseed oil, the team ground another 600 kilograms of tofu and distributed it to the members.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for another shift change. This time, Fang Wei led the team to replace Zheng Hu's team.

After such a long period of construction, the Yaojialing Reservoir has begun to take shape.

The county also invested heavily in this project. More than 18000 builders worked continuously and created one miracle after another.

"According to the current progress, it will be completed before the end of the year."

In just a few months, the construction site had changed in Fang Wei's eyes.

In this era where people rely on others to pull and carry things, it fully demonstrates what it means to be "strong in numbers".

The construction site was crowded with people. Without tractors, they used carts and wheelbarrows to transport soil, sand and gravel. If there were not enough transportation tools, they used shoulder poles to carry the goods.

This time, Fang Wei's team's mission is to transport earth and stone.

The task requires each person to transport 100 loads of soil (sand and gravel) every day. Failure to complete the task will be recorded, and those who complete the task ahead of schedule can rest early.

Fang Wei's team dispatched a hand tractor and several flatbed trucks and joined the labor force.

Basically, I can complete the tasks ahead of schedule every day.

"Captain Fang, since you have the help of the tractor, I have to help you with the burden. Is that okay with you?"

Before closing time at noon that day, the person in charge of Area 1 found Fang Wei.

Because Fang Wei's team was progressing the fastest, he wanted to temporarily increase their workload.

"Of course I have objections. Isn't this like whipping a fast ox? We only have so many people. No matter how much you add to the burden, it won't have any impact on the entire project."

That person probably didn't expect Fang Wei to refuse outright, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

However, the principle of task allocation is to treat all units and production teams equally. We cannot think of putting more burden on others just because they work faster.

He really couldn't force others to accept this.

"Comrade Fang Wei, your Xiatang Second Squadron of young commandos has always been a banner for our District 1. I hope you will consider this carefully and not destroy your reputation."

The man came to his senses and changed his words.

Fang Wei smiled and shook his head. Now he was too lazy to even say anything.

Why did he take a driver and fuel to bring the tractor over and put it into use? To reduce the physical burden on the team members.

If others were constantly adding burdens to the "team," what was the point in him doing this? He might as well just withdraw the tractor.

There's a limit to striving for excellence; he won't sacrifice the health of his team members for the sake of empty fame. In fact, his team members did a fantastic job on the construction site, often receiving red flags and consistently ranking first in task progress.

Seeing that Fang Wei refused to budge, the man could only leave angrily.

Two days later, Fang Wei realized a problem had arisen. His team's workload remained the same, but each assigned task was the toughest.

The task assigned to them must be the one with the longest transport route, and the proportion of stones is very large, and some large stones need to be cracked.

"Third brother, isn't this bullying? I'll go find them." Deng Yuanen was the first one who couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to find the person in charge of District 1.

Fang Wei quickly grabbed the other person and told him not to be impulsive.

This kind of thing is difficult to say openly, and can only be solved through other means.

"Starting tomorrow, if you encounter a large rock that's difficult to break, don't try to force it. Remember to report it to the person in charge of Area 1 immediately so they can find a solution."

Fang Wei knew that someone was trying to make things difficult for him, but he didn't get angry because he had experience in dealing with this kind of thing.

District 1 has its own tasks. If the progress of the project is affected for the sake of his so-called face, the person in charge of District 1 cannot bear this responsibility.

On the contrary, Fang Wei and his teammates do not have this burden.

Starting from the second day, Fang Wei's team no longer fought tooth and nail to take down tough opponents like before. Deng Yuanen repeatedly went to the person in charge of Area 1, asking for reinforcements or seeking help from others.

This is normal. When manpower is limited, every team may encounter insurmountable difficulties.

The District 1 leader hadn't expected the other party to accept his offer, a complete about-face from the past. They didn't care about the Mobile Red Flag or the reputation of the commando unit, so he had no real solution.

Knowing that he had gone too far, the District 1 leader didn't dare to speak out. He mentally labeled Fang Wei's team a "troublemaker" and stopped provoking them.

Since no one was targeting them, Fang Wei's team returned to normal and once again took first place in the entire Zone 1 in terms of mission progress.

"Third brother, the person in charge of District 1 is Zhang Yongli, a cadre from the County Water Conservancy Bureau, who was recently transferred here."

Deng Yuanen was a gossiper, and in just a few days he found out everyone's background.

Fang Wei smiled and didn't care much.

There are dirty jobs everywhere, so just deal with the issues at hand and resolve them. Anyway, the so-called "District 1 Head" is just a temporary assignment, and they're often replaced.

That day, Fang Ping brought people to the construction site to visit Fang Wei's team.

"Brother, what's delicious?"

"Today we have braised fish fillets. These are the fish Hu Zi and his men brought back. Come and eat them."

Today's dishes were also delicious. The spicy taste made Deng Yuanen and the others drool, and almost everyone ate half a bowl of rice more.

After eating and drinking, Fang Wei asked about the situation in the experimental fields and the fields.

Fang Ping said that the team's production situation is normal, except that the rice in the fields grows a little faster than in previous years.

"That's no problem. The climate conditions are different every year, and our rice seeds are better than before. It's okay if the growth rate is a little faster. Just keep an eye on it."

Fang Wei did not deliberately adjust the growth rate. He estimated that it was probably some changes brought about after the [Planting Area] was upgraded to level 10.

Unless it's getting out of control, there's no need to worry about it.

in the afternoon.

Fang Ping and others returned to the team, and Fang Wei's team continued to work.

At around three o'clock, someone brought a message saying that county leaders were coming to inspect the construction site and hoped that everyone would show a good spirit.

"Third brother, should we perform well?"

Deng Yuanen nudged Fang Wei with his elbow and said with a smile.

"What's there to show for it? Just do what you need to do."

Fang Wei's team's performance is obvious to all, so there is no need to show off at this time.

He always had a good attitude. Deng Yuanen quietly gave him a thumbs up and said nothing more.

In the afternoon, we were still transporting earth and rocks. There was blasting going on on the cliff in the distance. Since it was far away, there was no need to avoid it.

The entire reservoir was essentially excavated bit by bit, relying on human labor. Explosions were only used when encountering huge rocks and mountains.

When the county leaders came to inspect, they first went to the site of blasting rocks.

The dull explosions came one after another, and Deng Yuanen had the leisure to count: "One, two, three, four, huh?"

Everyone has gotten used to it these days. Basically, every time the firecrackers are set off, there are five in a row. As a result, he went silent when he counted to four because there was no sound after the last one.

This matter has nothing to do with Fang Wei's team. Except for Deng Yuanen, everyone continues to dig the soil and load it into the truck.

"Xiatang Second Squadron Youth Commando, drop what you're doing and follow me immediately. This is an order from the engineering command. Do you understand?"

After a while, someone came running over to convey the order from the engineering command center, asking Fang Wei to lead the team to gather at the blasting site.

When Fang Wei heard that it was an order from the headquarters, he didn't care about anything else and called on the team members to follow him.

It didn't take long before they arrived at the designated location.

"Comrades, there was a dud just now. We must eliminate it as soon as possible. I heard that most of your Xiatang Second Team Youth Commando are grassroots militiamen, and they have performed outstandingly.

Area 1 recommends you go and eliminate the duds. Do you have the confidence?"

The deputy commander of the engineering command came in person to mobilize Fang Wei's team and asked them to eliminate the threat of duds as soon as possible.

Deng Yuanen didn't say anything, but turned his head to look at Fang Wei.

Fang Wei was cursing in his heart at this moment. He didn't know what was going on just now, but now he definitely understood.

Didn’t you hear what the deputy commander said? District 1 recommended their team to go and eliminate the duds. Who else could have done this if not Zhang Yongli?

"Reporting to the deputy commander, our team has no experience in blasting and bomb disposal."

At this point, what else could Fang Wei say? He could only struggle a little longer.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have experience. As long as you're brave and careful, you can complete the task. Time is running out, so stop talking nonsense. Someone will be here to give you technical guidance soon. Go ahead."

The deputy commander ignored Fang Wei's words and ordered them to go forward and eliminate the duds immediately.

Fang had no choice but to bite the bullet and move forward, hating Zhang Yongli to death. After this was over, if he didn't bring someone to put a sack on that bastard and beat him up, he would take his last name.

But first we have to get through this hurdle.

When they got to the mountain, someone explained the key points of eliminating duds. It was not complicated and easy to understand, but the key was that no one knew if a dud would suddenly explode.

"I'll take two people up first. Deng Yuanen, you keep an eye on the situation below. If you notice anything unusual, wave the flag immediately. We'll retreat immediately if we see anything."

At this point, Fang Wei no longer thought about anything else.

He selected two people from his team to serve as the first echelon and follow him in the first wave to eliminate the duds.

If they fail, and the conditions for eliminating duds still exist, let the second echelon go.

Deng Yuanen was in charge of lookout, while the others rested on the spot.

"Brothers, are you afraid?"

"With Third Brother here, we are not afraid!"

"Good job! Follow me."
