My girlfriend is from 1949

The technical staff present were all carefully selected key personnel.

Don't let their youth fool you; most of them are only in their thirties.

But in reality, they all have real skills and their techniques are absolutely top-notch.

If this were in later generations, he would be no less capable than those so-called experts.

Moreover, they dressed simply, and some even wore straw sandals woven from rice straw.

These are people who get things done; they'll make sure that when they go to the fields to help farmers, they won't be doing anything shady.

The efficiency of oxen for plowing is, of course, very clear.

The efficiency of oxen plowing the land is naturally much faster than that of people digging with hoes.

However, oxen are still somewhat uncontrollable and need to be driven from behind with a whip.

Even if some obedient oxen can walk on their own after being harnessed to a plow, their speed and efficiency are definitely not as good as those of a mini tiller.

Because oxen need rest, otherwise they will be exhausted to death.

But micro-tillers don't need to. As long as there is enough fuel, they can plow one acre without resting after plowing another.

If one person gets tired, just have someone else operate the machine.

Moreover, the speed of a mini-tiller is indeed faster than that of an ox.

It's not that we should give up oxen for plowing.

In areas where oxen could be allocated, they would naturally be allocated to the production team.

However, in areas where resources cannot be allocated, mini-tillers will be used instead.

Moreover, as a pilot area, Longhua Town needs to reclaim a large amount of wasteland.

Once the pilot program is completed and these technical experts have learned how to use it, they will be able to reclaim wasteland in Dafeng County.

Reclaiming 200,000 mu is no easy task.

Even these key technical personnel were mentally prepared to stay in Dafeng County for a long time.

However, after seeing the mini tiller, my thoughts changed.

I couldn't help but think about how fast the land could be tilled if there were enough mini-tillers!

The thought of hundreds of people working the land at the same time fills me with excitement.

At that rate of reclamation, it wouldn't take long to cultivate 20 acres.

When large-scale planting of grains and vegetables is implemented, the problem of food supply for ordinary people will be solved.

Moreover, by relocating refugees and homeless people, their food and clothing problems were solved, and the overcrowding pressure in H city was also alleviated.

With a decrease in the urban population, the need for housing naturally decreases, leading to a reduction in the daily consumption of grains and vegetables.

One increase and one decrease could alleviate Shanghai's current predicament!

Moreover, these advanced micro-tillers can not only be used in Shanghai, but can also be transported to the north for use.

If large-scale land reclamation were possible throughout the country, every person would have land and food to eat.

With sufficient public grain reserves, a nation naturally grows stronger!

The technical backbone and experts were all excited and their eyes lit up.

They were all too aware of the enormous role that such small machines could play in the new China.

If used properly, annual grain production can definitely be several times higher than it is now!

A group of experts and technical backbones all tried it out themselves.

Pushing the mini-tiller back and forth across the wasteland.

In just a short while, five acres of land were reclaimed!

Seeing the astonishment on the faces of the experts and technical staff, Chen Huai'an couldn't help but smile slightly.

The purpose of purchasing these machines is to benefit the country and its people and improve their lives, isn't it?

The fact that it can make experts and technicians envious means that it was the right purchase.

And I am naturally proud to be able to help more people live a happy life where they can have enough to eat and wear beautiful new clothes!

He strolled over to the truck and scanned the cargo bed.

Because the purchase of farmland involves more than just one mini-tiller, but a complete set.

Sure enough, in the truck bed, there was a slightly flat, large cardboard box lying quietly inside.

Chen Huai'an rolled up his sleeves, ready to pull it down.

With my current arm strength, lifting several hundred kilograms is no problem at all.

However, thinking of his injured wrist, he turned to the soldiers and said, "Could you please help me move this box down?"

The four soldiers immediately obeyed the order, put their guns on their backs, and jumped onto the truck bed to unload them.

Two soldiers pulled the box from the truck bed, while two others caught it below, and they unloaded it.

Upon seeing this, the experts and technical backbone quickly gathered around.

The cardboard box was labeled: Lightweight hand-held rice transplanter with six rows.

Next to it, a smaller box was taken down, which also had "rice transplanter" written on it, but in two lines.

"Is this... for transplanting rice seedlings?"

A scholar in his fifties stared in astonishment.

Although we haven't seen what's inside the box yet, the literal meaning is still easy to understand.

Instantly, everyone's eyes lit up with anticipation.

The performance of the mini tiller was already impressive, so how about the rice transplanter?

Chen Huai'an directed four soldiers to help with the assembly.

The rice transplanter is quite large. Although it is much smaller than those large machines, it is still difficult for one or two people to assemble.

The length of the cross-section alone reaches two meters.

Moreover, the wheels and other parts are mismatched, making assembly very troublesome.

Lin Wan, familiar with the blueprints, directed four soldiers to assemble the machine in twenty minutes.

Add gasoline, and it's ready to work.

Chen Huai'an turned to look at the five acres of land that had been reclaimed, and suggested with a smile, "I see there are some vegetable seedlings in the car, how about we have a competition?"

Zheng Changlin raised an eyebrow, intrigued: "How will the competition proceed?"

The on-site competition between the two sides is also a way to verify the machine, isn't it?

Chen Huai'an laughed and said, "Why don't we send ten people from the expert technical team and see who can plant rice seedlings on one acre of land first?"

The experts and technical personnel present nodded in agreement, deciding whether it was faster to use manpower or machines.

These experts and technical backbones were all genuinely knowledgeable about technology and had worked at the grassroots level, unlike some experts in later generations.

Planting vegetable seedlings in the ground is a basic skill.

Although the land has been cleared and hasn't been paved with cement yet, the soil is still damp.

However, it doesn't affect rice planting.

Once the seedlings are planted, then water them.

The expert team selected 10 young key personnel in their thirties.

These people are strong and capable, and they are all excellent farmers.

The selected key members took off their outer clothes, rolled up their trousers and wore only vests, and some even took off their straw sandals.

They looked ready to get to work in the fields.

Each one was full of fighting spirit, ready to compete with the cold machines!

They felt confident that 10 people could take on one machine.

He flexed his wrists, warming up his body before the competition.

Then an expert in his fifties brought vegetable seedlings and distributed them to everyone.

Ten people lined up, ready to transplant rice seedlings.

Chen Huai'an also filled the rice transplanter with oil and put the seedlings into the slots as required.

They also took off their yellow military uniforms and rolled up their sleeves.

Anyway, I can support myself with one hand, and the 'injury' on my other hand won't affect the game.

Push the rice transplanter to the edge of the field, hold the handles with both hands, and get ready.

Lin Wan held Chen Huai'an's clothes, standing aside with a smile as she watched the spectacle.

The answer seemed to be already in his narrowed eyes.

Seeing that both sides were ready, Zheng Changlin shouted the order: "Ready... Begin!"

As soon as the order was given, both sides sprang into action.

Ten technical experts bent over and planted the vegetable seedlings in the ground.

His movements were skillful, clearly indicating that he was a regular worker, a stark contrast to modern experts who only talk big on the red carpet.

The ten people were very efficient, and their speed was almost synchronized.

Every step seemed to be ingrained in my bones, requiring no thought whatsoever.

Based solely on experience and intuition, the seedlings were planted in the right locations.

Upon seeing this, several middle-aged experts all wore satisfied smiles.

I am very satisfied with the basic knowledge of these younger generations.

If an expert, or a key technical member of an agricultural cooperative, can't even do farm work, isn't that just empty talk that harms the country and its people?

In the modern world, there are quite a few experts and scholars who mislead the country and its people.

Not long ago, they even caused trouble for the farmers because of the rapeseed flower incident, which really angered everyone!

Zheng Changlin watched the key personnel working rhythmically and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Turning my head to the other side, I could hear a deep rumble coming from the machine.

Chen Huai'an used both hands to push the rice transplanter forward slowly.

The speed was neither too fast nor too slow, and remained at the same level throughout.

After walking three meters, I neither moved faster nor slower.

We maintained a steady pace, moving forward at a moderate speed.

The machine's several rice-planting troughs also operated rhythmically.

Every 20 centimeters or so, the six rice planting troughs will be pressed down simultaneously.

The seedlings in the trough were evenly inserted into the ground.

As the machine passed by, the area where rice seedlings were planted became visible.

It is very symmetrical, even the distance between them is exactly the same.

Moreover, six seedlings can be planted at a time, making the planting speed extremely fast.

In terms of the number of plants inserted into the ground, the machines are already far ahead.

In fact, after decades of development, all science and technology have evolved towards efficiency and convenience.

Simply put, it's about doing whatever is most convenient.

Do whatever saves time.

If something can be invented, it must have unique advantages.

The rice transplanter was invented to save sowing time, and its efficiency is naturally very high.

Of course, there are many different models of rice transplanters.

In addition to extra-large and small sizes, they are also available in automatic and manual versions.

The automatic rice transplanter is naturally the one in front of us.

Once oil is added, the machine will automatically insert the seedlings from the trough into the ground while being pushed.

On the Indian and monkey side, there are also manual ones.

The design is very simple, consisting of just a handle and a piece of wood.

One person was dragging the plank in front, while two others lay on the plank behind.

Then, manually, the seedlings are planted in the field.

There's no need to bend over or stand up; you just need to rhythmically and periodically insert the seedlings into the ground.

In terms of efficiency, it is definitely faster than one person standing and transplanting rice seedlings.

Moreover, it is less likely to cause lower back pain.

Waaaaah!

Click!

As the machines roared, an entire acre of land was planted with vegetable seedlings.

Chen Huai'an put the machine aside and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

This rice transplanter was also ordered directly from the manufacturer.

Even at the factory direct price and with guaranteed quality, each unit still costs 8930 yuan!

When Chen Huai'an purchases supplies, the most important thing is quality.

I wouldn't dare buy goods online. With the platform's protection, false advertising and selling inferior goods are commonplace.

They even dare to display an off-road vehicle, priced at only a few thousand yuan.

When it arrived, it turned out to be a toy car the size of a palm.

One dares to buy, and the other dares to sell!

The key point is that this kind of fraudulent operation is not illegal!

At most, if they report too many people, they'll just abandon the account and start a new one to continue scamming!

As a modern person, Chen Huai'an was well aware of the tricks those merchants used.

Therefore, no matter what I buy, I will personally inspect it before cooperating with the company.

Furthermore, a dedicated person will inspect the goods upon receipt.

The concern is that substandard products may pass inspection and be openly sold on shelves.

When the bomb explodes, at most they'll take it off the shelves and impose a fine.

The key point is that no one has ever asked who passed the inspection.

Chen Huai'an didn't want to encounter unscrupulous merchants or parasites who took money to do bad things.

If you accidentally bring over those fraudulent, low-quality products, you'll lose all face.

Even if you explain that you were deceived, will others believe you?

Moreover, Lin Wan still has to live here. If something really happens, how will she face her comrades in the future?

In this era, being accused of corruption and bribery is a stain that one can never hold their head high for the rest of their life!

So, although the products purchased from modern sources are expensive, the quality is really good!

"Phew!"

"It's done!"

"Haha, this time the efficiency was really fast!"

"..."

The ten key members worked diligently in the fields, and after finishing planting one acre, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, the rice transplanting efficiency was at least twice as fast as usual!

No wonder they are so confident and feel very self-assured.

But…….

The surroundings were completely silent; no one cheered for their high efficiency.

The ten people were stunned for a moment, then quickly turned their heads to look.

Seedlings had already been planted in the field next to us.

Moreover, the lines are neatly arranged horizontally and vertically, and even the spacing between them is exactly the same.

Not only did they finish first, but their work was also neater and more aesthetically pleasing.

On the other hand, the ten of them, due to differences in speed and technique, exhibited some minor deviations.

Although the difference is small, it becomes very obvious when viewed from a distance.

It was winding and not as neat as the surrounding area.

Although it's not a major problem, it definitely loses in terms of aesthetics.

Moreover, Chen Huai'an was sitting next to the truck at that moment, leisurely drinking water and resting.

It's obvious they had already finished their work a long time ago.

The most important thing is that the efficiency has improved a lot.

Moreover, the other party looked relaxed, unlike our group of 10, who were all exhausted and covered in sweat.

As it turns out, machines are indeed far more efficient than humans.

Although I had expected this result, it was still painful to actually lose.

Zheng Changlin stepped forward, smiled, and offered a few words of comfort, thoughtfully refraining from announcing who had won.

After all, the facts are there, and everyone knows what's going on.

However, this competition demonstrated the efficiency of machine-based farming.

Looking at the 5 mu of land that had been reclaimed and the neatly planted green seedlings.

He couldn't help but wonder, "With this kind of work efficiency, isn't 200,000 mu (approximately 13,333 hectares) too few plots?"

After all, the calculations were based on the assumption that the land reclamation was carried out entirely by human labor due to the lack of oxen.

With the help of machines, productivity has increased several times over.

I'm thinking I'll go back and submit a report, and then hold a meeting to discuss adding more enclaves!

at the same time

A fighter jet appeared in the airspace over H city!
