During the Lunar New Year, Xiaguo has a national holiday. This is a public holiday for everyone, and the Uighurs will also have a holiday
But in fact, the Uighurs still have their own traditional spring festival, and when it comes to this festival, they will have a holiday to celebrate it, so they have more holidays than the Xia people.
This Spring Festival festival of the Uighurs is Nowruz.
The Nowruz Festival is held when all things recover and the earth returns to spring, and it is probably at the spring equinox on March 20 every year, and lasts until the end of the Ching Ming Festival.
Of course, in modern society, there are only three days off, and it is impossible to have two weeks like in ancient times.
The Uighurs divide this day into six periods, each of which is called a watch, including sunrise watch, noon watch, sunset watch, star show watch, midnight watch and dawn watch.
They will start from the dawn of that day, men, women and children will wear national costumes and hold festival activities.
For example, the most respected people in the village will use wheat grains to cultivate young seedlings, and then give them to the people in the village as a blessing;
Another example is that everyone will cook a lot of delicious food to celebrate, the most famous of which is the "Noruz rice" from the first day. an activity;
Another example is that everyone burns pine branches in the middle of the house, turns the smoking branches around everyone's head, and lets the animals pass by the gate of the livestock pen, praying for a strong body and rapid reproduction...
Chen Mu is not a Uyghur, but the old man rarely came to the gas station with Aunt Guli. They lit a pine branch, and let the pine branch circle around Chen Mu's head solemnly.
While Chen Mu tensed his body, letting the two elders play with him, his eyes followed the pine branches in circles, for fear that the burning pine branches would fall on his head and make his hair burn.
The two elders paid great attention to this ceremony, and when it was finished, Aunt Gu Li said: "Your parents are gone, so I have to worry about such things for them. Hurry up and find a girl to marry, any girl is fine. Continuing the descendants of your Chen family."
Any girl is fine...
It's so easy to say...
Although Chen Mu thought it was funny in his heart, on the surface he quickly agreed without any hesitation.
At this time, there should be no hesitation, otherwise the Uyghur aunt will nag you all day until midnight.
After the two elders finished this, they were about to leave, saying that they had to go back to the village as soon as possible, because there were still many things to do there.
Today is the first day of the Nowruz Festival, and there are many ceremonies to be done in the village. Chen Mu felt very embarrassed when the two elders went back and forth like this: "Since you have so many things to do, why don't you come today?" , it will be the same again tomorrow.”
Aunt Gu Li shook her head: "Some things have to be done today, after a while it won't be good."
Dare to feel that they really came here to use burning pine branches to spin circles on their heads...
Suddenly realizing this, Chen Mu felt a little warm in his heart, but couldn't help muttering: Are you praying for my body to be strong, or to reproduce quickly
Chen Mu thought for a while, and decided to send the two elders back to Yakash Village.
He had heard that on the day of Nowruz, the village would prepare a lot of delicious food, but he didn't go because he was afraid that there would be too many people and it would be tiring to attend so many ceremonies as an outsider.
Now that the two elders are here, he thinks he can go and have a look together.
He had just changed his clothes and was about to go out. Unexpectedly, a black Audi A6 drove directly into the gas station and stopped in front of the business office.
From the car, an acquaintance got off, and it turned out to be the private boss Huang who developed a high-tech private company that he had met in Muqi City before.
Behind Private Chief Huang, there was a young girl who looked like a secretary, and she looked quite pretty.
Chen Mu looked at Private Zhang Huang in surprise: "Why are you here? This... you didn't call me beforehand, I wasn't even prepared."
Private Chief Huang smiled and said, "What are you preparing for? I just want to give you a surprise inspection to see the real situation of your research institute."
Chen Mu was dumbfounded for a while, people would come if they didn't come, and they had to welcome them.
He thought for a while, then turned his head and said apologetically to the old Uighur couple: "Uncle and Auntie, it seems that you have to leave first. I have something to do here, so I can't go today."
The old Uyghur couple didn't expect Chen Mu to go together, so it was fine. The old man glanced at private leader Huang and asked in a low voice, "Can you help me?"
Chen Mu shook his head: "No need, Uncle, you should hurry back with Auntie, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with your party."
Chen Mu just heard from the old man that there will be a dinner in the village at lunch time, and all the villagers will gather together to eat and sing and dance to celebrate Nowruz.
Originally, I wanted to join in the fun, but now it seems that I can't do it.
The old Uighur and aunt Gu Li hugged Chen Mu before leaving the gas station.
When Aunt Gu Li was about to leave, she touched Chen Mu's face and said a few New Year blessings in Uighur, which was extremely solemn.
Chen Mu sent the two elders out with a smile. Except for the few people who were really related to him by blood, they were also considered his relatives in this world.
Private Chief Huang and the female secretary behind him have been watching the interaction between Chen Mu and the old Uighur couple with great interest. After the two old people left, Private Chief Huang smiled and said: "I heard that you are here and the local The common people here are treated like a family, and now it seems that it is not an exaggeration at all."
Chen Mu smiled and asked, "Secretary Huang, what part do you want to check in this surprise inspection?"
Huang private director pointed to the forest farm and research institute behind the gas station: "Of course I want to visit your forest farm and research institute."
Chen Mu said: "Senior Huang, it's okay to visit the forest farm, but this time you really didn't come at the right time. Today is the Nowruz festival for the Uyghurs. The head of our research institute, Dean Anargul, is not here. There is a good way to introduce our research institute to you."
Private Chief Huang nodded helplessly: "I know it's not a coincidence to come today, but I can't help it. I received a notice from the capital that there is a very urgent matter that I need to go back to deal with, so I will leave tomorrow. I came to you in a hurry today to have a look, and then I can go back and report to others."
Chen Mu didn't know who Huang Sier was talking about, but he had already expressed his attitude that he had to look at it no matter what, so he didn't hold back anymore, and directly led people in.
As he walked, he tentatively asked: "Private Huang, after our patent application is approved, is there any policy or support plan from Faywei to help us promote this technology?"
Of course, Private Chief Huang understood what Chen Mu meant. He smiled slightly but didn't answer. He asked instead, "Then tell me, what promotion plan do you have? What kind of policies or support plans do you need from us to help you promote it?"
Chen Mu smiled embarrassingly, knowing that he was asking a little bit, so he hurriedly joked to himself: "Private Huang, our forestry company has only been established for half a year, and there are not many people who want money, and there are not many people who want money. Conditions... Well, they are very limited. If you don’t help us with such great energy, I’m afraid our technology won’t be popularized in a short while, and I’m afraid it will waste a lot of time.”
"There is some truth in what you said."
Private Chief Huang pondered for a while, and then said: "Chen Mu, although we have only met twice, and we don't know much about each other, I still want to talk to you if we have something to say. Said."
"You say."
"Technical patents belong to you. Promoting them will bring you great benefits and benefits. This should be very clear, right? So, of course, the promotion also depends on you. Your company itself should be the one that promotes the technology. main force."
The words are a bit convoluted, but to put it bluntly, the technology belongs to you Muya Forestry, and it is you who promote it to make money, so of course you should promote it yourself.
Chen Mu originally wanted to dawdle on the high-speed train to see if there is a chance to take a ride, but now it seems that his principle is very clear: if you want to make money, do it yourself, don't think about it.
Mr. Huang took a look at Chen Mu, and continued: "However, in view of the particularity of your patented technology, it is not impossible for the state to provide some help, but this can only be done with the permission of the law."
Please, don't speak so out of breath, it's really worrying.
Chen Mu was overjoyed, although he couldn't help secretly criticizing the other party for his bureaucratic way of speaking, but he was relieved after all, which is very surprising.
Mr. Huang said: "Don't think about it now. When your patent application is approved, we will discuss it with the Ministry of Agriculture. As long as the conditions are met, we will definitely support you."
"Thank you, Mrs. Huang."
Although it was just a verbal promise from the leader, Chen Mu felt that he got what he wanted, and felt that today was a good day, so he quickly thanked him.
Private Chief Huang pointed to the nursery in front of him: "Can you introduce your saplings to us now?"
Unknowingly, the three of them had already walked in and arrived at the nursery ground.
Private Chief Huang looked around, looked at the forest outside the nursery field, and asked, "Did you plant these trees in the past half a year?"
Chen Mu nodded: "Yes, at the beginning I felt that this place was too deserted and deserted, so I wanted to plant some trees to make it look greener, so I planted some trees."
Private Chief Huang nodded and praised: "It's amazing, you can plant so many trees, even if you don't have this forestry company, you have made a contribution to the country."
Chen Mu was quite embarrassed: "It's not a contribution, anyway, idle is idle, purely for myself."
"These are the seedlings you raised?"
"yes."
"I heard that the seedlings you grow here are very capable of surviving. They are rushing to buy them in the market, right?"
"yes."
Chen Mu acted as a lecturer and explained the advantages of his own saplings to the leaders: "The main reason is that through our cultivation technology, the root system of the saplings can grow more developed. Compared with ordinary saplings, its roots can grow in five days. within… "
After listening to Chen Mu's introduction, Mr. Huang thought for a while and said, "It looks very good. I hope you can continue to expand production capacity in the future. Tree planting and sand control are not only in the northwest. The Three North Project needs a lot of good quality every year." Sapling, I can ask the relevant departments for you later, if they need anything, I will let them come to you directly."
This is to help drive business...
Chen Mu hurriedly thanked him repeatedly, and after watching the forest farm, he continued to lead the leader to the research institute attentively.
In the institute, except for the female dean, Anargul, who went home because of Nowruz, everyone was working as usual.
In fact, Chen Mu is not familiar with the research institute. The key is that there are many instruments and equipment, and he can't name any of them, so he has no way to introduce them to the leaders.
He was thinking about finding someone to help, but he didn't expect to see Yang Xiaoqi as soon as he entered the door. His eyes lit up, and he immediately extended his hand to say hello: "Yang Xiaoqi, come here. We have two guests visiting our research institute today. You Let the leader lead the way and introduce you."
He didn't ask Yang Xiaoqi if he was free, and directly arrested him, leaving no room for Yang Xiaoqi to refuse.
Yang Xiaoqi was walking while looking down at the document, and when he heard Chen Mu's words, he couldn't help but raised his head in astonishment, looked this way, and subconsciously pushed his glasses with his hand, with a particularly bookish air.
"Come here quickly!"
After Chen Mu called Yang Xiaoqi over, he introduced to Mr. Huang: "Mr. Huang, this is Yang Xiaoqi, our senior R&D engineer. Next, let him show us around the research institute."
He specially added the word "senior" in front of "R&D engineer" so that Yang Xiaoqi would look more advanced and his reception would also become more advanced.
Private Chief Huang smiled and said nothing, Chen Mu said to Yang Xiaoqi: "Yang Xiaoqi, come on, let's start, take us around the research institute, and you can introduce us."
Yang Xiaoqi showed a look of reluctance, and under Chen Mu's eyes, he could only act as a tour guide: "Okay, now the left side of the door is our main laboratory, which is equipped with ultra-clean workbench, microbial Microorganisms, colony counters, pipettes, fluorescence polarization scanners... Although there is still a gap between the world-class agricultural and forestry laboratories, the equipment we need is basically fully equipped... The structure of our laboratory is mainly …”
Listening to Yang Xiaoqi's introduction, Chen Mu wiped off his sweat secretly. If he was asked to come to this matter, he might not be able to say anything, let alone an introduction.
Yang Xiaoqi, apart from being a little bit more basic, seems to be very good professionally. He knows everything in the research institute like the back of his hand, and he really feels like a scientist.
Anyway, as the boss, Chen Mu was very satisfied with Yang Xiaoqi's performance.
As for Mr. Huang and his female secretary, they should be satisfied.
They listened very carefully. While listening, Private Chief Huang also asked one or two questions from time to time, and they all got to the point. He was obviously an expert.
When Yang Xiaoqi explained and introduced to the guests, his expression on his face was very serious and a little nervous, and his demeanor and temperament were very in line with his own personality.
But in his heart, he was extremely calm and was turning his head to analyze the origin of the "Private Huang" in front of him.
Just now, when Chen Mu led Mr. Huang wandering around the forest farm, Yang Xiaoqi had already discovered it immediately, and stood behind the curtain upstairs to observe for a long time.
Although they were separated by a long distance, with Yang Xiaoqi's ability to know people, he quickly figured out from private boss Huang's gestures that the person who was with Chen Mu should be an official, and not a lowly one at that.
Therefore, when he saw Chen Mu leading Mr. Huang around the forest farm, and then walking towards the research institute, his thoughts changed sharply, and he immediately left his office, pretending to have something to do, passing the gate of the research institute, and Chen Mu and the others met by chance.
And Chen Mu also stopped him very "cooperatively" and asked him to help as a tour guide.
Yang Xiaoqi took a close look at the two guests brought in by Chen Mu. The middle-aged man should indeed be an official, and the demeanor and temperament emanating from him should be that of a high-ranking official.
Then, Chen Mu said "Private Huang", which confirmed Yang Xiaoqi's guess.
"Senior Huang? Is he from the capital? Which department's private leader? Why did he come here? Is this Chen Mu's unknown backstage? Or maybe he is because of other..."
Many questions popped up in Yang Xiaoqi's mind in an instant, all of which were waiting for him to find out the answers.
Leading people to visit various places in the research institute, although Chen Mu and Mr. Huang did not have many conversations, most of the time it was him, the tour guide, who spoke, but Yang Xiaoqi still listened to the few conversations between Chen Mu and Mr. Huang. In the movie, I found that the relationship between the two is actually not so "familiar".
Or it should be said that the relationship between them is not the kind of "backstage" relationship.
In other words, this is Chen Mu's normal reception of this private elder from the capital.
Then why did this private elder come to visit a small forestry company
Yang Xiaoqi was even more puzzled, his mind was spinning very fast, although there were many guesses, but there was no way to analyze a more reliable answer from these guesses.
"Behind this is our motor room. In order to ensure a stable power supply for the laboratory, when we built this research institute, we bought two sets of generators, one for regular use and one for backup..."
When the research institute was first built, the electric power unit was almost the place with the largest investment. When Chen Mu saw the delivery of the things, his heart was bleeding for a long time, so he didn't let Yang Xiaoqi say about the motor room, and he took the initiative He introduced it very emotionally: "Senior Huang, we don't have electricity here. It's really not easy to use electricity. It's all about generating electricity by yourself. To put it bluntly, building the motherland depends on generating electricity with love... Yes, we can't access the Internet here, there is no signal, the environment is really unfriendly to us... "
After complaining about the bitterness, Chen Mu smoothly changed the topic to support: "Senior Huang, after our patent application is approved, you must support us more, we are really a small business Small, there is no way to promote it quickly... "
When Chen Mu blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, Yang Xiaoqi heard the key words in it all of a sudden, and couldn't help but move slightly: "Patent application? What patent application? Could it be...they applied for a patent?"
For a moment, Yang Xiaoqi felt a little panicked for no reason, as if something unfavorable to him was already happening.
