Siheyuan: Back to 50 years ago, Shazhu joined the army

Xing Bin was also listening with doubt. Seeing that he didn't believe it, Yang Ming on the side immediately agreed: "Old Xing, our village has an output of 1500 kilograms per mu this year. Do you dare to believe it? Anyway, as long as you follow the steps of our County Chief He, you will never be disappointed."

When Xing Bin heard the news of 1500 kilograms per mu, he almost dropped his jaw. He immediately asked Yang Ming,

"Really, Lao Yang, you are not lying to me, are you? You told me before that there is a new variety of upland rice, so I was curious and wanted to try it first. Now that I hear what you say, it seems that our Xinyong Village must implement it in full."

Hearing this, Yang Ming patted his chest and assured, "Old Xing, we have been friends for so many years, I would never lie to you."

Xing Bin naturally believed in Yang Ming's character. He knew that he was a down-to-earth person who would not speak nonsense. Although he thought that a yield of 1500 kilograms per mu was a fantasy, he chose to believe this reality.

He Yuzhu then continued to interrupt, "Village Chief Xing, I can send people to provide you with technology and seeds, but I have two requirements. The first is confidentiality, and the second is that in addition to your own grain, the remaining 2% must be handed over to the county government as reserve grain. Is there any problem?"

Xing Bin himself had the mentality of trying it out, and as long as he could solve the problem of food and clothing, the excess should be handed over. Naturally, he had no objection and nodded in agreement.

"No problem, County Magistrate He, I'll do as you say."

Seeing that he agreed, He Yuzhu organized people to come here to teach them how to plant, and planned to start sowing in March next year.

The arable land area in Xinyong Village has reached an astonishing 1000 acres, which is twice that of Yangjiagou.

In the following days, under the introduction of Xing Bin, Yang Ming and others, He Yuzhu contacted each village one by one and carried out pilot projects in each village. Almost half of the villages under Daze Town were put in place. They all chose to trust He Yuzhu as the county magistrate, learned upland rice planting techniques, and started large-scale and large-scale planting of upland rice in the spring of the following year.

Of course, although He Yuzhu was doing things in the name of the county government, in fact it was his personal operation.

Of course, the county government is still unaware of this, because these villages are all located near Meishan, a poor mountain valley where no one lives, and will not attract the attention of others at all.

Of course the most important aspect is that the county party secretary Jia Zhengjing has no time to take care of these things during this period. He has been dealing with some trivial matters every day recently, because the volunteer army will be ready to withdraw back to the country next year, and he has to make preparations in advance.

In addition, many local towns were suffering from famine, which was also a headache for him. After all, the food he had on hand was very limited, and he had to both help the local people and fill his own pocket, so he felt particularly uncomfortable.

Since He Yuzhu was busy promoting dry rice technology in the local area, he rarely appeared in the county party committee compound. This led to a relatively peaceful relationship between the two sides during this period, with each side not interfering with the other.

Of course, He Yuzhu was also busy as a member of the county government standing committee. He was doing two things at once and constantly trying to win over the county party committee leadership team. Now he has completely won over Liu Xin, director of the county public security bureau, and Cheng Ping, head of the county organization department.

In his remaining free time, He Yuzhu would go to the city to spend time with his wife, Hao Chunlan.

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, He Yuzhu returned to the Hao family as scheduled. As soon as he entered the door, he was pulled aside by his wife Hao Chunlan, who looked mysterious.

He Yuzhu was puzzled when he saw this, and immediately asked her,

"What's wrong, Chunlan? Are you hiding something from me? Why do you seem so happy today?"

Hao Chunlan nodded.

"Well, yes, Zhuzi, there is a happy event. Do you want to guess what it is?"

He Yuzhu heard this, thought about it, and then spoke,

"Did you get a promotion, Chunlan?"

Hearing this, Hao Chunlan shook her head repeatedly and immediately blamed He Yuzhu.

"Yuzhu, you are a workaholic. Why do you keep talking about your job? I am pregnant!"

He Yuzhu was stunned when he heard what Hao Chunlan said.

"What, Chunlan, what did you just say?"

Hao Chunlan repeated: "I said I'm pregnant, we have a child."

He Yuzhu jumped up in joy when he heard this.

"Ah, I'm going to be a dad, that's great."

After saying this, He Yuzhu excitedly held Hao Chunlan's hand.

"Chunlan, thank you for your hard work. By the way, do our parents know about this?"

Hao Chunlan nodded.

"Well, both of their elders know about it. I have already informed them in advance."

He Yuzhu nodded upon hearing this.

"Okay, by the way, let's not just stand there. You need to rest more now that you are pregnant. Let's go back to the house."

When Hao Chunlan heard what He Yuzhu said, she complained directly,

"It's not that exaggerated. It's only been a month."

He Yuzhu shook his head.

"Chunlan, it's not that I'm too cautious. This is the fruit of our love, and we have finally gotten pregnant. We must be careful."

Hao Chunlan did not refute, and then with the help of He Yuzhu, the couple came to the living room.

Hao Jinlong was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper. When he saw He Yuzhu coming, he immediately put down the newspaper and greeted him.

"Zhu Zi, you're here. Congratulations. You're going to be a father."

He Yuzhu smiled slightly when he heard this.

"Dad, congratulations, you are going to be a grandfather too."

When Hao Jinlong heard his words, he also smiled.

But after laughing for a while, he stopped smiling and his expression became serious.

"Zhu Zi, come with me to the study."

He Yuzhu was a little confused by his father-in-law Hao Jinlong's sudden words, because he noticed that his father-in-law's expression was a little unnatural, wondering if he had encountered something bad again.

However, he followed Hao Jinlong directly to the study and closed the door. After the two sat down, Hao Jinlong spoke first.

"Zhu Zi, there is something you need to understand."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hao Jinlong took out a letter from the drawer and handed it over.

He Yuzhu took the letter from his father-in-law, and was quite surprised when he saw that the sender was his sister He Yushui.

He immediately took out the letter from the envelope and read it carefully. After reading the contents of the letter, He Yuzhu lost his composure and his face turned dark.

It turned out that the letter said that his adoptive father He Daqing had committed hooliganism and was detained by the local public security authorities and was currently under interrogation.
