Chapter 23 begins with taking charge of the area.
Upon returning to Gushanling Township, Qi Tongwei sent his two articles, "The Rise of a Great Power: Germany" and "The Rise of a Great Power: America," which he had written during the National Day holiday, to the People's Daily, Freedom Daily, Handong Daily, Handong Evening News, Hanjiang Daily, Nanbian Daily, and Huacheng Morning Post for submission.
Then, Qi Tongwei handed the receipts for the rapeseed and raw chestnuts to the station manager, Yan Shihai.
He had previously reported his idea to Yan Shihai, who also supported it.
Agricultural technology stations are very important, bearing the heavy responsibility of promoting agricultural technology to help people increase grain production, ensure that people have enough to eat, and live a good life.
However, it is difficult for agricultural technology stations to achieve results. After all, increasing grain yield is not easy. It requires finding the right methods and good technology, as well as the cooperation of the people.
In Gushanling Township, the agricultural technology station tried every means to help the people increase grain production, but the people did not cooperate.
As a result, the promotion of agricultural technology in Gushanling Township has not made much progress.
This means that it is difficult for agricultural technology stations to achieve results, and Yan Shihai, as the person in charge, is unlikely to be promoted.
Qi Tongwei's idea can produce results quickly, not only feeding the people but also increasing their income.
After all, vegetables can be sold in addition to being eaten by oneself and used to feed livestock.
This was like someone bringing Yan Shihai a pillow when he was sleepy.
Once Qi Tongwei gets things done, he'll have a respectable achievement, and his chances of promotion will increase.
"Tongwei, I will submit your reimbursement application, but it's hard to say when it will be approved."
As you know, the village is in dire financial straits; they can't even pay salaries.
Yan Shihai looked at Qi Tongwei and said that Qi Tongwei spent 120 yuan on rapeseed and raw chestnuts this time, which was equivalent to his monthly salary.
"Thank you, stationmaster, I understand!"
Qi Tongwei said that he knew his reimbursement would be slow, and might not be available for several years.
But he can't just do nothing because of that; he must produce results as soon as possible.
"You've been studying for three months now, it's time for you to take charge of a region."
The station has decided to assign you to be in charge of six villages: Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling'an.
I hope you can do a good job in promoting agricultural technology in these six villages!
Yan Shihai said earnestly, “There are six villages: Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling’an, some far away and some near.”
Gushan Village is the location of the township government, and Lingshan Village is the closest village to the township government.
The four villages of Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling'an are the ones furthest from the township.
Originally, Yan Shihai did not intend to give the two villages of Gushan and Lingshan to Qi Tongwei.
However, considering that Qi Tongwei wanted to engage in vegetable cultivation, these two villages were the most suitable, so they were assigned to Qi Tongwei.
"Yes, stationmaster, I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Qi Tongwei quickly said that with a designated area to be in charge of, he could demonstrate his abilities.
"By the way, let's do the vegetable planting in Gushan Village and Lingshan Village!"
Yan Shihai instructed that since Gushan and Lingshan villages are close to each other, the leaders would easily notice the project once it was launched.
"Okay, Station Master!"
Qi Tongwei said that this was his original plan.
Vegetable cultivation in the villages of Gushan and Lingshan is likely to attract attention.
Because people from other villages have to pass through these two villages to get to the township.
Township officials also have to pass through these two villages when they go to the countryside.
During the National Day holiday, Qi Tongwei obtained a considerable amount of vegetable seeds from the College of Agriculture at Handong University. After growing the seedlings, there should be enough to distribute to the two villages of Gushan and Lingshan.
Qi Tongwei also needs to produce results to impress his superiors so that he can pass his probationary period smoothly and become a deputy section chief after becoming a full-time employee.
To prevent the Liang family from using his mediocre performance during the probationary period and the need for further training as an excuse to delay his formal employment and cancel his deputy section chief status.
Liang Lu would do anything to make her submit.
He chose to go to Jingzhou during the National Day holiday to avoid Liang Lu.
Otherwise, if Liang Lu saw him, she would think he couldn't stand the hardships of rural life and had given in.
During his trip to Handong University, Qi Tongwei only bought 120 yuan worth of rapeseed, but the teachers from the College of Agriculture gave him a lot more as a gift.
It's equivalent to paying the price of one portion of rapeseed to buy three portions.
With so many rapeseed seeds, the seedlings grown can basically cover Gushan Village and Lingshan Village.
As for chestnuts, Qi Tongwei thought they could be distributed to the two villages of Lingshang and Ling'an for planting.
Although both Gushan and Lingshan villages have "mountain" in their names, they are located at the foot of mountains, as are Qingshui and Lingxia villages.
The villages of Lingshang and Ling'an are located in the mountains, which is perfect for chestnut cultivation.
However, chestnuts have a relatively long growth cycle and a long fruiting period, taking about four years to flower and bear fruit.
Although it has not yet shown any immediate results, if planted on a large scale, it will become a major source of income for the people of Lingshang Village and Ling'an Village in four years.
Qi Tongwei planted rapeseed in the experimental field of the agricultural technology station.
Afterwards, Yan Shihai announced at the morning meeting of the agricultural technology station that Qi Tongwei would be responsible for the promotion of agricultural technology in six villages: Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang and Ling'an.
After the handover, Qi Tongwei began his new work and life.
Qi Tongwei first visited six villages: Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling'an, and carefully learned about the agricultural situation in each village.
During this period, Qi Tongwei received letters from the Southern Daily and the Huacheng Morning Post.
The Southern Daily and Huacheng Morning Post were preparing to publish "The Rise of a Great Power: France" and "The Rise of a Great Power: Cherry Blossoms," and sent him sample copies and a 240 yuan fee for the article.
With the money, Qi Tongwei bought 200 yuan worth of rapeseed from the College of Agriculture of Handong University and promptly planted the rapeseed in the experimental field to cultivate seedlings.
The teachers from the College of Agriculture at Handong University donated twice the amount of rapeseed, allowing Qi Tongwei to cover the six villages he was responsible for.
Qi Tongwei decided that vegetables should be planted in all six villages: Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling'an.
Although the planting scale in Gushan Village and Lingshan Village will be larger and have a more direct effect.
However, Qingshui Village, Lingxia Village, Lingshang Village and Ling'an Village also need these vegetables to improve their lives.
Qi Tongwei invited teachers from the College of Agriculture at Handong University to provide guidance. Since they had donated so many rapeseed seeds, he felt he should give them something in return.
This will facilitate further cooperation in the future.
Qi Tongwei spends every day traveling in the countryside, working with the villagers in six villages: Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling'an, persuading them to make room for growing vegetables.
Using the name of Handong University, Qi Tongwei quickly persuaded the village officials and villagers in six villages to agree to grow vegetables.
After the seedlings were harvested, Qi Tongwei distributed them to six villages: Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling'an, so that each household could plant them.
They found a place on the mountain in Lingshang Village and Ling'an Village to plant chestnuts and asked the village to take good care of them.
During this period, Qi Tongwei wrote an article entitled "Thoughts on Improving People's Lives with Vegetables" and sent it to the Masses Daily, Freedom Daily, Handong Daily, Handong Evening News, Hanjiang Daily, Nanbian Daily, Huacheng Morning Post and Agriculture Daily for submission.
October has passed just like that.
In November, Qi Tongwei went to the countryside every day to check on the vegetable planting situation in six villages: Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling'an, and provided guidance to the villagers.
In early November, Qi Tongwei received letters from the Southern Daily and the Huacheng Morning Post.
The Southern Daily and Huacheng Morning Post are preparing to publish "The Rise of Great Powers: Germany" and "The Rise of Great Powers: America," and have sent sample copies and a payment of 240 yuan for the article.
In mid-November, Qi Tongwei sent his newly written article, "The Rise of a Great Power: The Great Mao," to the People's Daily, Freedom Daily, Handong Daily, Handong Evening News, Hanjiang Daily, Nanbian Daily, and Huacheng Morning Post for submission.
By late November, the autumn harvest and planting had ended, and the work at the agricultural technology station became easier.
Qi Tongwei began to think about the issue of vegetable sales.
The six villages of Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang, and Ling'an cultivate a considerable amount of vegetables, more than enough for the villagers to eat and feed their livestock.
Vegetables cannot be left in the ground indefinitely after they have grown, as they will spoil easily. Excess vegetables must be disposed of as soon as possible.
According to Qi Tongwei's statistics, the vegetable planting area in the six villages of Gushan, Lingshan, Qingshui, Lingxia, Lingshang and Ling'an has reached more than 100 mu.
More than half of the vegetables need to be processed.
