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

This morning.

The team distributed eggs to everyone, with a minimum of two kilograms per person. Once again, the distribution was based on coefficients, and [Poultry House No. 1] took out a total of 6000 kilograms of eggs to share.

There are still 3200 kilograms of eggs left, which are included in the inventory.

Inventory is still very necessary, as it can be used to deal with customers with connections. Otherwise, they won’t be able to buy eggs every time they come, and the relationship will not be maintained.

The next day, Zheng Hu and Fang Ping led people to kill 70 pigs and distributed the pork. There were still 1085 pigs left in the pig farm.

Now everyone has become accustomed to the fact that distribution is based on coefficients, but many people are still holding back their anger and strive to increase the team's coefficient when it is re-evaluated at the end of the year.

The greater the contribution to the team, the higher the distribution coefficient, and vice versa.

[Produce eggs, points +9200]

[Produces piglets, points +24150]

Total points: 808725.

Although there were some differences between the teams according to the coefficient distribution, everyone was still very happy and had a joyful Dragon Boat Festival.

Fang Wei's family did not go to the Yao village, but asked Wang Zhuyun to go back and pick up grandpa.

On the day of the festival, Taoist Sun and Guan Chongyang also came. The old man drank a few more glasses with grandpa, and the two of them talked more.

"Third Brother, you're doing the right thing. You should fight for what you need to fight for, and don't let your thoughts get in the way. What's wrong with the captain? He's only human. Who are you trying to show off to by acting so selfless?"

The old man has strong underworld habits, and he will never be able to change them in this lifetime.

But Fang Wei knew that there were indeed selfless people in this world, but unfortunately he was not one of them.

"Just do it when you have made up your mind. Don't worry about what others say."

Grandpa is better, but he is also a pragmatist and likes to do things his own way.

Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua looked at each other and both felt that the two old men were drunk.

But let's indulge them a little during the holidays this year. Normally, we wouldn't let them drink so much.

Grandpa and Guan Chongyang got more and more interested as they talked. Perhaps neither of them knew what they were talking about, but they were just excited.

In the end, it was Fang Wei and Taoist Sun who carried the old man back.

Grandpa was also supported by Pan Lianhua and Wang Zhuyun into the room, and fell asleep on the bed.

The old man stayed at his granddaughter's house for three days before returning to the Yao village. Fang Wei had sent him back because he wanted to check on the growth of the [YX-032] rice seeds.

Most of the rice in the fields has entered the late stage of the fruiting period and can be harvested in a few days.

Fang Wei is very satisfied with the growth of the [YX-032] rice seeds. This type of rice seeds has universal applicability and should be able to be promoted on a larger scale.

In general, Captain Fang still has some feelings about major events.

the next day.

Fang Wei arrived at the team headquarters, and as soon as he entered the door, someone brought him documents.

He took a look and couldn't help but smile.

Fang Tao passed the examination and was admitted to an agricultural college in the provincial capital. This was a great event. Workers, peasants, and soldiers are also college students, right?

This was a fate-changing moment for Fang Tao. Originally, he might have had to wait until the resumption of the college entrance examination before he could succeed, but now it happened many years earlier.

Fang Wei couldn't sit still any longer, so he cleaned up the table and went to find his elder brother to report the good news.

Fang Ping happened to be at the second team's headquarters at the time. Fang Wei called him out and showed him the admission letter.

"God bless you! Third brother, our Fang family finally has a college student. Tomorrow, you and I will go burn three incense sticks for our parents and tell them the good news."

As Fang Ping spoke, tears began to stream down his face.

He thanked his third brother from the bottom of his heart. If it weren't for his third brother's help, Taotao would never have been given the recommendation spot.

He then dragged his third brother straight home and told Tian Guihua about it as soon as he entered the door.

Tian Guihua didn't pay much attention to her child's education in the early years, but since Taotao ranked first in the class and grade every year, she gradually changed her mind.

When Tingting went to school, she became much more proactive.

"My son has become a college student? Oh, what a great joy! Little brother, come over tonight, sister-in-law will cook you a few dishes, and you and your brother can have a few more drinks."

The Fang family was overjoyed, but in order not to upset others, they did not publicize the matter in the village.

But there were only two young people in the entire commune who were recommended to go to college, and the news spread quickly and soon spread to all the brigades.

Leaving aside other brigades, in Xiatang Brigade, most people were friendly. There might be some who were secretly jealous, but there weren't any who would gossip behind our backs.

Many members of the second team and educated youth came to congratulate Fang Ping on raising a good son.

Chu Linlin was very envious. Jiang Xia had taken leave to visit her relatives and had not returned yet, but Liang Xueqin often came to chat with her.

"Linlin, do you think we have any hope of getting a recommendation?"

"It must have been difficult for educated youth, right? I don't dare to think about that. If I could get a job offer, I'd be so happy."

"You still want to go back to the city?"

"Don't you want to?"

As female educated youth, they were actually waiting for the opportunity to return to the city.

For such a long time, they have not fallen in love, let alone talked about marriage with local people. It is not that they have any contempt chain, they just want to return to the city.

If I get married and have children there, I'm afraid I'll never be able to go back.

Fortunately, they were still young. When Chu Linlin came, she was 17 years old, and Liang Xueqin was about the same age. She was only half a year older than the other.

Returning to the city has almost become an obsession in the hearts of many educated youth.

Fang Wei knew that this opportunity was precious, so he took the time to talk to his nephew and told him to study hard in school so that he could better serve the country and give back to his hometown after graduation.

"Manman, I will definitely study hard."

At this moment, Fang Wei saw the light in Taotao's eyes.

So she said nothing more, patted her nephew's shoulder heavily, and turned away.

Two days later, Fang Wei brought some local tea from the mountain, bacon from the Yao village, as well as dried bamboo shoots and dried mushrooms, and went to express his gratitude to Wu Yaoyang.

Wu Yaoyang didn't mind these local specialties and accepted them directly. To be honest, if the other party gave him something valuable, he would throw it away.

Then the two chatted about the summer harvest for a while, and Fang Wei said goodbye and left.

Wu Yaoyang was also very happy. It seemed that Fang Wei was not a stubborn person. He had always wanted to include him in his circle, but because of Tang Ze, it was difficult for the two of them to get close.

He actually doesn't have any major conflicts with Tang Ze. Isn't it normal for the chief and deputy to have some minor conflicts?

Unexpectedly, because of a recommendation, the relationship between the two became closer.

Fang Wei came out of Wu Yaoyang's office and went to see Guo Yongqing.

Guo Yongqing lives a very leisurely life now. Although he has been sidelined, his treatment has not changed. He goes to the team to visit his wife every few days.

Zhang Chu always turned a blind eye and even secretly provided convenience to the couple.

Seeing that Uncle Guo was in good spirits, Fang Wei felt relieved and returned to the team.

Next.

The entire Xiatang Brigade suddenly became busy. Summer harvest and summer planting are the busiest seasons of the year, and even the elderly and children have to do what they can.

All side jobs and economic forests are put aside, and everyone has to contribute to the summer harvest.

This time, they still took turns harvesting, but the team had more threshers—56 after adding more—and two small harvesters, whose efficiency surprised many.

After harvesting, hurry up to thresh and dry the crops, otherwise it will be troublesome if it rains.

The word "rush" (rush) indicates the urgency of harvesting and summer planting. Harvesting rice is a rush mainly due to concerns about weather changes. Planting late rice is a rush to avoid missing the farming season.

Fang Wei is most concerned about the conventional breeding of [YX-032]. He has been spending the past few days in the 10-acre experimental field of Team , and he will not feel at ease until the results come out.

In the experimental field of Team 032, the [YX-803] rice seeds achieved an excellent yield of kilograms per mu.

You should know that this experimental field is not designated, so there is no attribute bonus.

This data represents the normal breeding level of [YX-032], which means it can be promoted to more regions. However, there is a key issue: this hybrid rice must be bred using the sterile line developed by the second team.

Three-line hybrid rice is divided into three lines: sterile line, maintainer line and restorer line.

Among them, the sterile line is the top priority and the foundation of hybrid rice breeding technology, which is indispensable.

Therefore, this hybrid rice can indeed be bred in various regions, but it still depends on Team 2 and the sterile line provided by Team 2.

But even so, if the second team can allocate part of the land to cultivate the sterile line, this [YX-032] rice seed can be promoted.

"Team Two doesn't have that much paddy field. The key right now is to continue cultivating the Nanguang No. 2 rice variety. It's really a dilemma."

Fang Wei shook his head. Next, he would try to cultivate the sterile line outside the second team to see whether the phenomenon of trait separation would occur, or at which generation would the current separation occur?

In the following days, the data from each production team was reported, but there were no surprises.

The second team's Nanguang No. 1100 rice variety, a standardized type, has a stable yield of 962 kilograms per mu. Other teams, on the other hand, have averaged kilograms per mu from lower-grade rice varieties.

The entire brigade has a total of 4270 acres of paddy fields, which is 4250 acres excluding the experimental fields.

Team 440 planted 484000 mu (approximately 3790 hectares) of the Nanguang No. 3645980 rice variety, yielding a total of jin (approximately catties). The other production teams planted a combined mu (approximately hectares) of the Nanguang No. second-grade rice variety, yielding a total of jin (approximately catties).

48.4 jin of finalized rice seeds can be exchanged for 484 million jin of rice grains, and 364.598 million jin of second-grade rice seeds can be exchanged for 1823 million jin of rice grains.

Based on the calculation of 20% rice and 80% cash, the entire Xiatang Brigade will earn 461.4 million kilograms of rice.

The cash income of Team 45.96 was 183.76 yuan, and the cash income of other production teams was yuan.

All together, the brigade’s cash income was 229.72 million yuan.

The reason for calculating them separately is that the prices of fixed rice seeds and second-grade rice seeds are different.

This year's harvest is good, and everyone has a big smile on their face. For farmers, the joy of a good harvest is irreplaceable by any other happy emotion.

[Harvest crops, points +484000]

[Harvest crops, points +3645980]

Total points: 4938705.

"Huzi, let's distribute the rations as quickly as possible. The upcoming summer planting work is heavy and time is tight, so we must not delay."

The team held a meeting to discuss the issue of ration distribution, and Fang Wei insisted on setting the standard at 800 kilograms of rice per person.

That is, in a production team with a coefficient of "1", the average per-person ration is 800 kilograms of rice.

The lowest coefficient is "0.7", which means that the average ration per person is 560 kilograms.
After the matter was settled, Fang Wei asked Zheng Hu to organize and implement it as soon as possible. Summer planting had already begun, and the distribution of rations would ensure that everyone had more food.

Zheng Hu nodded and immediately went to arrange the matter.

the next day.

Each production team went to the public warehouse to collect grain. After taking back the calculated quantity, each team would distribute it according to their work points.

The brigade distributed nearly 100 million jin of rice in total, and there were still 361.4 million jin of rice left in the barn.

Let's keep these rice grains for now. After the summer planting is finished, we have to go to the public to collect the public grain.

After distributing the rations, the agricultural machinery team had completed the brigade's soil plowing work, and everyone started to get busy again.

Fortunately, Xiatang Brigade has so many agricultural machinery. If it were in previous years, everyone would have been busy for almost the entire summer.

The extensive use of rice transplanters played a key role, and everyone's attitude towards the team's purchase of agricultural machinery also changed and became more positive.

This season, the second team still planted 440 mu of [Nan Guang No. 10], 10 mu of experimental fields were used to plant sterile lines, and mu were used for pairing experiments.

Team One continued to plant [YX-10] rice seeds in its 032-mu experimental field in order to collect more relevant data.

Excluding the second team, other production teams planted a total of 3790 mu of [Nan Guang No. ] second-grade rice seeds, which was no different from the previous season.

After finishing the summer planting, the large group of people began to move to the mountains and forests.

The saplings grown in the nursery are growing well and can be transplanted to the mountains. Chestnut and tea saplings are a priority, and the team will continue to expand its economic forest area.

The nanmu trees, which serve as a protective forest, are spread out along the foot of the mountain and become the main force for villages to prevent mudslides and mountain torrents.

We will continue to artificially plant precious tree species such as yew and silver fir on the distant mountains. There is no specific task for this, as long as we can ensure continuous investment every year.

"Xiaoxia, our team is really busy. We have no time to rest all year round."

The educated youth also participated in the double-harvest work and afforestation work. Jiang Xia returned to the team before the summer harvest and was transplanting tea oil trees in the mountains of the fifth team.

In addition to completing the reception tasks, Chu Linlin also has to participate in collective labor such as summer harvest, summer planting, and afforestation.

They don't have to go to distant mountains to plant trees; that's something for strong laborers.

"That's not all bad. This year's large-scale tree planting will only take 10 days. After 10 days, the forestry team will take over. Wouldn't that give us some free time?"

Jiang Xia responded with a smile, and a small sapling in her hand had just been transplanted.

"Idle time? You wish. The harvest will start again in about a month. We have to go deep into the mountains and forests to pick wild chestnuts and wild camellia seeds."

The two of them chatted while working, and their progress was quite fast.

Fang Wei was with Zheng Hu, Gao Qingshan and others at this time. He inspected the entire transplanting work and felt that the progress was faster than expected.

The original plan was to double the area of oil palm forests and increase the number of chestnut trees by 30,000 within three years. Now it seems that this progress will definitely be advanced.

Moreover, the cultivation of precious tree species is unusually smooth. With the blessing of various attributes, the success rate of seedling cultivation is 100%, and the growth rate is also fast.

There is no reason for things not to go smoothly.

"That's great! In two or three years, all the economic forests will be put to use. By then, the forestry team's income will definitely increase significantly."

Fang Wei and others finally participated in collective labor in the distant mountains and did not go down the mountain until the afternoon when work was over.

The 10-day concentrated tree planting and afforestation work has achieved fruitful results. Strength lies in numbers. If the people in the forestry team alone rely on themselves, the same amount of work will have to be completed until next year.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Apart from their daily work, most members and educated youth took a good rest for a while.

A week later.

Fang Wei announced the start of construction of roads within the brigade.

Most of the members and educated youth were mobilized this time. The road construction work will last for one month. There is no task target, and we will build as much as we can.

The project will continue after the autumn harvest.

He planned to spend two years to repair all the roads inside the brigade and leading to the outside world.

There is no need to think about cement roads, and the cost of asphalt roads is not cheap either. The most economical and affordable is gravel road.

However, the road conditions of gravel roads are very bad. Factors such as vehicle running over and rain can easily cause damage to the road surface and create potholes.

Fang Wei’s idea is to first solve the problem of whether it exists or not, and then discuss whether it can be used well.

Gravel is free, and the team's collective labor is converted into work points. Relatively speaking, the cost of gravel roads is very low.

After the commune learned of this situation, it reported it to the county.

Wu Yaoyan was very much in favor of building the road, so he reported the matter to the relevant authorities at the regional and provincial levels and requested support from his superiors.

After all, Xiatang Brigade is a pilot unit in the province, and it is also a breeding demonstration base at both the regional and provincial levels, so it should be taken care of.

If it were Tang Ze, he might not do this.

But Wu Yaoyang needs to achieve results as soon as possible to consolidate his foundation, and his style of doing things is relatively radical.

He will do what he decides to do and doesn't care whether he will be criticized or not.

As a result, the relevant departments at the regional and provincial levels attached great importance to the road construction of the Xiatang Brigade and urgently allocated a batch of asphalt and other materials to the brigade.

Later, the county sent a technical team and a small construction team to Xiatang Brigade to provide guidance and services for the road construction work.

"Third brother, I didn't expect Director Wu to be so efficient, decisive, and responsible. We are really benefiting from his work."

Fang Wei and the team leaders never expected this situation to happen. The county roads are all in disrepair now, and it is impossible for them to invest in village roads.

But he still underestimated his own influence and the Xiatang Brigade.

The superiors don’t care about investing more, what they care about is whether Fang Wei can cultivate high-yield rice varieties with higher yields and greater universality.

Plus, the entire brigade is the cornerstone of the county's grain production, so what does a little bit of supplies mean? (End of this chapter)
