Scientific verification takes time!
Wan Ping'an nodded.
According to Dean Wang, seven or eight years is already a very short time.
"Seven or eight years is exactly the time when the great famine began."
"I wonder if we'll make it in time?"
Wan Ping'an sighed.
"Dean Wang, I've thought of a solution."
“Setting aside a separate, isolated experimental field in each province or city and conducting experiments simultaneously might shorten the verification time by a few years.”
Wan Ping'an made a suggestion.
"Your heart is good, but it's difficult!"
"Allocating land requires personnel management and multi-faceted cooperation, which consumes too much human and material resources."
"The crops that need to be verified are not limited to the Golden Waterway; it is impossible to invest all resources in verifying the Golden Waterway."
Dean Wang sighed.
For Wan Ping'an personally, golden rice is his everything.
For the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, there are too many things to do and too many excellent seeds to verify. Even if resources are allocated, it is impossible to allocate too much.
It's even less likely that we'd gamble everything!
Wan Ping'an nodded.
"Dean Wang, I have a request."
"Can I apply for more land?"
Wan Ping'an dared not rent other people's land casually. If he were targeted by someone with ulterior motives and labeled as a landlord, his social class would change, and he would be in big trouble.
To acquire multiple plots of land, approval from higher authorities is required.
"This is worth a try."
"However, you can only keep a small portion of the crops you grow; the vast majority must be handed over to the state."
Dean Wang offered this reminder.
Wan Ping'an nodded; he had been mentally prepared for this.
After talking with Dean Wang, Wan Ping'an went to find Qin Huairu.
“Huai Ru, your education level is a weakness. I suggest you attend night school or pursue further education through correspondence courses.”
“In the future, I want you to be in charge of promoting the Golden Waterway.”
"Irregular academic qualifications are hard to convince people."
Wan Ping'an plans Qin Huairu's life.
His arrival completely changed Qin Huairu's fate.
Qin Huairu didn't marry Jia Dongxu, didn't encounter a starving mother-in-law, and was just a pretty woman with some cunning. She didn't turn evil, so she's worth investing in!
Whether or not she should become his wife remains to be seen!
"May I?"
Qin Huairu's eyes sparkled.
"What's not allowed?"
"If you agree, I'll have Dean Wang write you a letter of introduction."
Wan Ping'an nodded.
Dean Wang is also a straightforward person.
He immediately grabbed paper and pen and wrote a letter of recommendation for Qin Huairu, suggesting that she study through correspondence courses and just pass the exams.
"Thank you!"
Qin Huairu happily hugged Wan Ping'an.
"She has a great figure!"
Wan Ping'an was stunned, and thought to himself, "This feels so good!"
at this time.
Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi, mother and son, brought Old Jia's body back to the courtyard house.
Everyone in the courtyard was stunned.
Is the lively and energetic Lao Jia really gone just like that?
“Mrs. Jia, Old Jia is gone, but you still have Dongxu. You have to look forward. What are you planning to do?”
Yi Zhonghai had prepared a lot of words to comfort Jia Zhangshi.
But upon closer inspection, what was going on?
Madam Jia was not sad at all, only a little worried, which shows that she was not saddened by Old Jia's death and there was no need to comfort her.
He felt a little sorry for Jia Gensheng.
"Uncle, you're Old Jia's good brother, the old man in the courtyard, you really have to help us, what should I do?"
Jia Zhangshi has become dependent on Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai was taken aback. When did he become Lao Jia's good brother?
His relationship with Lao Jia was just so-so.
"In Lao Jia's case, it will be very difficult for him to receive compensation."
"You can go to the factory and make a scene. If the leaders get annoyed, they'll want to settle things peacefully and will give you some compensation. It depends on how capable you are."
"Let Dongxu fill in again!"
Yi Zhonghai offered the idea.
"What are you waiting for?"
"go!"
Jia Zhangshi couldn't wait.
The three headed straight for the steel rolling mill.
Two hours later, the three left the steel plant.
Jia Zhangshi made a big scene, and her goal was achieved.
The steel mill gave him 300 yuan as a condolence payment, not a death benefit. Old Jia did not die because of the steel mill, so he did not meet the criteria for receiving a death benefit.
Jia Dongxu joined the steel rolling mill to take over Lao Jia's position.
"Sigh, Lao Jia, your life has been so unworthy."
"After receiving the money, Jia Zhangshi actually smiled, and she still looks happy to this day!"
Yi Zhonghai sighed repeatedly.
Jia Zhangshi immediately pocketed the three hundred yuan consolation money.
It wasn't given to Jia Dongxu, nor was it said that it would be used to handle Lao Jia's funeral arrangements.
"Uncle, you are Lao Jia's best brother and the oldest man in the courtyard. After Dongxu enters the factory, you must take good care of him."
Jia Zhangshi has set her sights on Yi Zhonghai again.
"Also, we are a widow and her children, and we don't know how to handle Old Jia's funeral arrangements, so we can only entrust them to you."
Jia Zhangshi became increasingly greedy.
I've taken the money.
Old Jia didn't care about his funeral arrangements.
“Okay, I will personally guide Dongxu after he joins the factory.”
Yi Zhonghai did not mention taking on apprentices.
He planned to test Jia Dongxu again.
"Little beast..."
Upon returning to the courtyard house, Jia Zhangshi blurted out something.
Yi Zhonghai followed Jia Zhangshi's gaze and saw that Wan Ping'an had returned, accompanied by Qin Huairu, the two of them chatting and laughing.
Jia Dongxu's eyes widened in disbelief.
Wan Ping'an had just returned to the courtyard house when he learned that Lao Jia had died, which surprised him greatly.
"Old Jia just died like that?"
"Old Jia is dead, so Yi Zhonghai's retirement plan is about to begin, right?"
