And on this day. Hundreds of large steam cars arrived in Jincheng County, Xizhou.
Xun Shifei and Li Zhen took a car and went to Jincheng County in person. The entire atmosphere in Xizhou also became serious.
The person escorting the car is the deputy minister of the New Kyushu Ministry of Agriculture and a senior official. What these hundreds of vehicles carry are the hybrid rice seedlings that will be used in Xizhou this time.
The reason why he did not directly provide rice seeds was because Yuan Bing did not trust farmers to cultivate rice seeds themselves, so he directly cultivated the rice seeds to maturity and grew into seedlings before escorting them over.
The farmers in Xizhou enjoyed the blessing. They received the rice seedlings and started transplanting them directly. Many, many steps are omitted.
After arriving at Jincheng County in Xizhou, the entire city was placed under martial law. Soldiers with live ammunition guarded these large steam vehicles, and they were on guard, not allowing anyone to approach easily.
Not long after, a car convoy came quietly.
Li Zhen and Xun Shifei walked to the first car hand in hand.
Zhang Kang, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Agriculture, immediately stepped forward: "See Dean Li. See Prime Minister Xun."
Li Zhen nodded without saying anything. He led people from the Kyushu Academy of Sciences into the convoy and said nervously: "Test it."
"Yes."
People from the Institute of Biology of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences immediately boarded the steam cars and inspected them strictly to see if the seedlings were intact and to see if the seedlings had been damaged during transportation.
But Zhang Kang approached Xun Shifei and said, "Prime Minister Xun, please check and accept."
With that said, Zhang Kang handed over a document to sign the contract.
To be honest, Zhang Kang's mind was already full of holes along the way. These hybrid rice seedlings were really too important. Afraid of bumps and wind and rain. I am even more afraid of various accidents.
They were heavily escorted along the way. Every time they arrived, local officials treated them sternly, enforcing security and escorting them all the way.
Heartbroken.
Finally arriving at Jincheng County, Zhang Kang felt relieved and wished he could collapse on the ground and take a deep sleep.
Xun Shifei nodded and took the documents but did not sign them. Instead, he led people into the steam cars in person and began to check around.
Everyone was extremely nervous and the atmosphere became extremely depressing.
Zhang Kang and the others did not dare to take a breath. They looked at Xun Shifei and Li Zhen for inspection uneasily, and their nervous legs became weak.
Students are afraid that something will go wrong if they are found out, and their own brains will be in danger.
For the entire Xizhou to escape from poverty, it is only a small problem for one person's head.
About an hour later, Yuan Bing walked up to Li Zhen and said with a smile: "Master Li, no problem."
Li Zhen nodded and looked at Xun Shifei.
Xun Shifei was silent for a while, and then several officials who were proficient in agriculture reported in front of him: "Prime Minister Xun, no problem."
"Hahahaha. Good!"
Xun Shifei laughed loudly and slapped Zhang Kang on the shoulder: "You did a good job. Thank you for your hard work along the way. These hybrid rice are very important. They are related to the lifeline of the country. You must not be careless. But you have completed it." You have accomplished the difficult task of transportation. It can be said that you have made a great contribution. The people of Xizhou will remember you for your merits, and the country will also remember your merits."
After saying that, Xun Shifei waved his hand and wrote his name on the document.
Zhang Kang took it with trembling hands, then carefully put it into his arms, and sat down on the spot dripping with cold sweat. There was a hint of exhaustion in his eyes.
I was so worried along the way.
It's simply heartbreaking.
When I go to bed at night, I have to close one eye for fear of something going wrong. While walking on the road, some places were closed to traffic, let alone such a large convoy. So he built bridges and repaired roads in the face of all kinds of wind and sun, wandering all the way for thousands of miles, and finally reached Xizhou from Dongzhou.
All he wants now is to find a place to have a good sleep. It's best to take a shower.
Seeing Zhang Kang like this, Xun Shifei quickly ordered: "Take Minister Zhang and others to stay at the best restaurant in Xizhou and reward them with the best hospitality."
"yes!"
Zhang Kang stood up and said tiredly: "Thank you, Prime Minister Xun."
"You deserve this."
"Okay, then I'll go to Prime Minister Xun."
After speaking, Zhang Kang turned back to Li Zhen and said, "Dean Li, I'll leave first."
"Go ahead, go ahead, the people from Xizhou will be responsible for what happens next."
“…”
Xun Shifei and Li Zhen looked at each other and smiled: "Who is that?"
Everyone was at a loss, and the princess of Jincheng County pointed at herself in confusion: "Prime Minister Xun called me?"
"If you agree, I'll call you. Arrange it and you will be responsible for escorting these seedlings to all parts of Xizhou. Each vehicle has a number, and each number corresponds to a region. How many seedlings are allocated to each region? They are all numbered, don’t get confused. Before sowing, be sure to escort them to the right place.”
The princess of Jincheng County felt bitter in her heart. I am so mean-mouthed. What did I promise to do
This kind of escorting thing is the most thankless thing. Just look at Zhang Kang's appearance and you will know that after a long journey, he is so tired that he seems to have aged ten years. It's not that I'm physically tired, but that I'm too worried.
"yes."
Immediately, the princess of Jincheng County burst into tears and began to arrange for an escort.
The steam car didn't rest long, and smoke billowed out again. 'Woo-woo' roared and began to bloom everywhere, spreading to every corner of the entire Xizhou.
Watch the motorcade roar away.
Li Zhen suddenly became very passionate: "In three months, Xizhou will be very different."
Xun Shifei sighed with emotion: "It's all thanks to Dean Li and the Kyushu Academy of Sciences. I'm waiting for the day when Xizhou will become rich, and I'm also waiting for the day when the people of Xizhou will no longer starve to death." "
"Will do."
"hope so."
“…”
With the arrival of the rice seedlings, the entire Xizhou reveled.
Everyone is looking forward to it, waiting for their own share of seedlings.
The next day.
Xiping County.
Wang Huan climbed up and down and led the people to the city gate, looking forward to it.
"Why aren't you here yet?"
"Didn't you say it was coming soon?"
"How long have you been waiting for this?"
Wang Huan turned around and saw that people all over the city were jumping to look outside. After several major events, people became more enthusiastic about sowing than ever before. Through the propaganda of the Xizhou government, everyone also knows the difficulties of hybrid rice and the prospects for the future.
"I heard that if this hybrid rice is planted, the crops grown will be several times that of previous years."
"Yes. In previous years, the crops grown were not enough for us to eat. Now we not only have a surplus, but we can also sell a lot."
"I heard that there are still many rice harvesters, so we have started to contact farmers in advance."
"Why didn't you contact me?"
"coming."
"Is it that convoy?"
“…”
"Where is Wang Huan, Princess of Xiping County?"
A man jumped out of a steam car and shouted.
Wang Huan shouted excitedly: "Here, here, I'm here."
"Come here, sign the order and receive it."
“…”
