Everyone was so shocked that they couldn't speak. Looking at Chen Yuejin's full cart of grain, their mood was complicated.
If a catty of wheat yields 9.22 cents of white flour, this is called miserable. Wouldn’t the rest of the village be in for a famine? There is a difference of two catties for every ten catties. Such a big gap, how can it be compared with Old Man Chen.
The noisy voice just now quieted down in an instant, and the villagers didn't dare to talk about Old Man Chen anymore. They looked at him with envy and jealousy, and some still didn't recover from the shock.
But this time, no one dared to gossip in front of Chen Yuejin. Even when he looked over, he couldn't help avoiding his gaze, not daring to look into Chen Yuejin's eyes. embarrassment.
Chen Yuejin snorted coldly, looked at the surrounding villagers and said: "Everyone has seen it too, I didn't cheat, the yield of my wheat is much higher than that of ordinary wheat, this can stop you from spreading nonsense Alright."
"Old Chen, don't get me wrong, aren't everyone also curious about your harvest? If you farm like us, who would doubt you?"
"That's right, that's right, how did you get this kind of land method? Why is it so amazing? Although we are wrong, but you are the only one in the village who is different from the others, so everyone doesn't pay attention to you, and it's not intentional." ? Don't be angry with everyone."
"Old Chen, can you tell me why this year's wheat has grown so well and produced so much?"
The villagers were silent for a while, and when they heard what Chen Yuejin said, they hurriedly asked about the secret of the crop yield. Now they have seen this increase in yield with their own eyes, and they didn't believe it before because it never happened in their knowledge. I have never experienced such a thing before, but now I can see a miracle happening around me with my own eyes.
Old man Chen couldn't help but have a bumper harvest and also improved the quality and output of the grain. From ordinary second-class flour to super-grade first-class flour, what an insurmountable gap, but he did it, which shocked everyone.
Soon, in the minds of the villagers, the good-looking wheat they saw was linked to the RMB. They were thinking that if they could cultivate the land like Chen Yuejin every year, how could they? Isn't it also possible to harvest so many crops
The extra income of one hundred and eighty yuan per mu of land can lead the whole family to a well-off life, and there is no need to worry about not being able to make money from farming. It is simply a proper wealth code.
Old man Chen wanted to make up his own mind when he listened to the crowd. These people thought strangely. Why didn't they want to help him when they were gossiping behind his back? Most people just cared about the jokes and saw how he failed and how he lost money. Seeing that his method is successful now, he wants to share a piece of the pie. It's not that easy.
Chen Yuejin sneered and said, "I'm afraid you will burn the crops. I'd better not tell you about such a dangerous thing. Not everyone can be as lucky as me. If something goes wrong, I can't afford it."
"Then what happened? You have succeeded. As long as there is a way, we will definitely be able to grow it. You don't want to tell me, why are you so stingy?"
"Okay, I'll just say it straight. Those people who were gossiping behind my back at the beginning think I'm stingy now? Don't you have an angry face? When you said it, you opened your mouth and shut up and made up nonsense. Don't even think about causing me trouble. How much influence, I am not so kind, and I also help people who have ridiculed me."
This is what Chen Yuejin thought in his heart. Because he got the planting method sent by his daughter, he became an outlier in the eyes of others.
Although the reform and opening up have been carried out in the past few years, his thinking is still old. He disagrees with others, and if he wants to be independent, he will be pointed out by others, as if he has made some huge mistake.
This is not the first time this has happened before, and this time it will not be the last time. At any time, if you want to be the first to eat crabs, change and challenge traditional concepts, it is a risky thing.
Chen Yuejin now thinks clearly, since he doesn't fit in with others, forget it, anyway, he doesn't want to associate with these people, the relationship is not very good, and these people can't do him any good, it is necessary to be with them Do you have a deep friendship
The other villagers wanted to say something at this time, but they were interrupted by Xiao Dong who came to deliver the food. "Uncle Chen, the village director told you to go to the village."
Chen Yuejin waved his hand and nodded, and then saw the four-wheeled cart slipping out of the grain depot. The villagers pushed back two steps hastily when they saw it, and they looked completely different from their aggressive approach.
For them, seeing a good harvest of grain, Chen Yuejin's back was straightened, his whole body was strengthened, and he had a way of talking to others, which made them speechless and didn't know what to reply.
The incident in the grain depot quickly spread to all corners of the village, from sensible children to eighty-year-old ladies all knew that the yield of wheat planted by Chen Yuejin was as high as 1:0.92, and Chen Yuejin became a celebrity now. As soon as they left the house, people blocked their house, asking about farming methods, which annoyed Chen Yuejin so much that he shut the door at home and did not avoid those people.
This village has finished counting the public grain. Chen Yuejin was called to the office of the village committee. Many villagers have already come. When they looked at him, they were so enthusiastic. The young people were even more excited to talk about Uncle Chen. , flatter as much as you want, almost call him daddy.
Chen Yuejin had never been treated like this before, and he was at a loss for a while. It took him a long time to understand that everyone in the village had started to hand in food these days, and everyone in the village had finished handing in food, and there was no one better than Chen Yuejin. A lot of food was handed over.
And when the village director saw the amount of flour that Chen Yuejin used to grind the bag of flour, he finally accepted the reality. Old man Chen really had a bumper harvest this time, not just a normal bumper harvest, but the result of exceeding the completion of the task.
The harvest of Xiao Dong's family in the village is also good, but the output of his personal field is still not as good as that of old man Chen, and the first place is still Chen Yuejin's.
All the village leaders never thought of this number, so everyone collectively decided that Chen Yuejin deserved to be the first place in this year's food delivery, and rewarded him fifty yuan.
The village party secretary announced to the villagers watching in the office: "Everyone, don't be unconvinced. Lao Chen has the most harvested grain this year, so according to the regulations issued by his superiors, the reward of fifty yuan is Chen Yuejin. Yes, this year he will be rewarded, and if you want to, you must work hard to grow more land, so that you can make more money by planting more food!"
After speaking, he handed over fifty yuan wrapped in red paper to Chen Yuejin under the watchful eyes of everyone, and praised, "Old Chen is not bad this time, please keep working hard."
When Chen Yuejin took it, his hands were trembling a little, and he was in a flurry of moods. Holding the bright red fifty yuan, he was not to mention how happy he was. I have worked so hard for so long. Although the process was very difficult, but seeing When I got the money, I felt that all the hardships I had suffered were worth it.
Speaking of which, this is the first time in his life that he has received an award and felt the envious eyes of others. Anyway, he felt very honored and very honored when he got the money. Let those who look down on him see, they are Blind, he persisted until the final victory.
Chen Yuejin took a deep breath excitedly, and managed to calm down. "Good leader, I will definitely make persistent efforts!"
"By the way, there is one more thing." The village director said to Chen Yuejin suddenly after the prizes were handed out, and after the surrounding discussions had quieted down.
Chen Yuejin was taken aback and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Hey, in fact, I know that you have suffered a lot of grievances before, and even I misunderstood you, but everyone's mood is for your own good, so don't be angry with them anymore. The past is all in the past. People in the village, folks in the big hometown don't need to hold grudges."
"Director, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, you don't need to beat around the bush."
As soon as Chen Yuejin heard it, he felt that something was wrong, and the joyful mood just now faded instantly.
"Can you take the farming method you used before and take a look again? If our village wants to increase production in this way, wouldn't it become a model for ten villages? There must be policies in the city , maybe give us an increase in subsidies, this is something that everyone benefits from, and it’s great that you have become a great hero in our village."
Chen Yuejin had almost guessed that this was the case. He didn't expect that this time the village director started to make up his own mind, but it was a good thing that he didn't believe it, and he didn't read the contents of the letter carefully, otherwise it would definitely not be the result now. .
"Director, do you still remember what you said at the beginning? Didn't you say that my daughter is unreliable? How can this unreliable method be shared?"
The village director sighed, and replied with some worry: "Old Chen, you said that you really held a grudge. Everyone didn't know what would happen in that situation, so they were not sure."
"Let's just pretend that there is no such thing. I think everyone's previous method is very good, and there is no need to change it."
Chen Yuejin coldly refused, and what he said was already very clear. How could the village director have issued such a good method, and now he pretends that there is no such thing, and he is really unwilling to give up like this.
"Then what on earth are you willing to agree to? Do you want me and some leaders to beg you?"
The village director was also agitated, almost kneeling on the ground for Chen Yuejin, but Chen Yuejin hurriedly helped him up.
Chen Yuejin was helpless: "Anyway, I don't agree to give them the method, but they can sell fertilizer, and then prepare some waste every spring. If anyone wants to plant the land, they can come to me to buy it. As for the method, I will definitely not say it. of."
The village party secretary heard that this method is fine, as long as the fertilizer is easy to use, but other villagers have some opinions after hearing this: "Why do you need to spend money to buy it?"
Chen Yuejin became anxious when he heard it: "I only agreed to you buying fertilizer for the sake of the village director. If you spend money, don't you want to spend money? Who is taking advantage of you? If you don't want it, just say it. I let you spend money." Can't catch them all?"
