A hint of disgust flickered in Yi Zhonghai's eyes.
Doesn't he want a divorce?
Doesn't he want to marry someone who can have children?
miss you!
really want!
But he can't!
He wants to establish himself as a great person.
If he gets divorced and abandons a weak woman who can't have children, it will definitely affect his reputation, leaving him with no choice but to continue living with an older woman.
"Old Jia is dead."
"The Jia family will definitely have a hard time after losing its pillar of support."
“At this time, if we help the Jia family, Jia Dongxu will definitely be grateful to us. If we nurture him slowly, he may be able to take care of us in our old age and see us off in our final days.”
Yi Zhonghai's face broke into a smile.
The older woman suddenly realized what was going on.
No wonder Yi Zhonghai was so happy!
"Jia Dongxu is a pretty good person, but he's a bit weak-willed. Are you sure he'll take care of us in our old age?"
Chapter 88 Jia Zhangshi's Hidden Money, Yi Zhonghai's Donation
"Haha, Jia Dongxu has a rather weak personality. What you're worried about is exactly what I'm looking for."
"He is weak-willed, which makes him easier to control."
“In the future, we will find him another wife. This wife must be able to listen to us, and he will have no choice but to take care of us in our old age and see us off when we die.”
Yi Zhonghai's eyes shone brightly.
Finding a suitable caregiver is not easy.
He hadn't thought of letting Jia Dongxu take care of him in his old age until Jia Dongxu suddenly had an accident. That's when he came up with this idea, and the more he thought about it, the better it seemed!
"But what about Jia Zhangshi?"
"Don't you understand Jia Zhangshi?"
"She can't possibly expect Jia Dongxu to take care of us in our old age. Even if she did agree, what if Jia Zhangshi goes back on her word when we get old and you retire?"
“Jia Dongxu is her son after all, so he will definitely listen to her more.”
The older woman was still very worried.
"You don't need to worry about that at all. It's just a Jia Zhangshi, isn't it?"
"When it comes to playing mind games, can she outsmart me?"
"If she's obedient, I'll let her live out her old age in peace; otherwise, I'll make sure she has everything arranged properly before I retire!"
A chilling glint flashed in Yi Zhonghai's eyes.
Anyone who dares to interfere with his retirement plans is his greatest enemy, more hateful than Wan Ping'an, and must die!
The next morning.
Yi Zhonghai took a day off and went to the hospital with Jia Dongxu to pick up Jia Zhangshi from the security department.
"Leaders, on behalf of Jia Zhangshi, I apologize to you."
“She really didn’t mean it. She’s just having trouble accepting the fact that her husband is dead. I promise she will never cause you any more trouble.”
Yi Zhonghai wore a forced smile.
Apologize to the hospital security personnel.
The security personnel didn't make things difficult for him, after all, what she said was true; Jia Zhangshi's husband had just passed away, and she might really be traumatized.
They should have learned their lesson after being locked in a dark room for a day.
"Jia Zhangshi, if you don't want to be locked up again, then don't say anything!"
"The security guards have guns. If you piss them off, they could shoot you dead, and you'd never have another chance to enjoy life!"
Jia Zhangshi had just been released and was about to unleash her fury.
Yi Zhonghai rushed forward, grabbed Jia Zhangshi's hand, and whispered a warning in her ear.
The security department in the early days of the new society was different from the security guards later on.
The security department has some of the functions of the police station and is also equipped with weapons, not limited to pistols and rifles; large factories even have grenades and small cannons.
Jia Zhangshi chickened out.
Obediently follow Yi Zhonghai to handle Lao Jia's funeral arrangements.
same moment.
Wan Ping'an is on six acres of land.
"Dean Wang, if we start promoting rice now, when can it be planted on a large scale across the country?"
"next year?"
"Or the year after next?"
Wan Ping'an is very much looking forward to it.
In a few years, a major disaster will occur.
The Great Famine lasted for three years.
He hopes to cultivate golden rice on a large scale, as the high yield might save the day from this disaster.
"How could it be so fast?"
"Even if everything goes smoothly, a full rollout will take seven or eight years, or even more than ten years."
Dean Wang sighed.
His tone was somewhat helpless.
Wan Ping'an was taken aback. Why was it so slow?
He thought that if he started breeding and promoting it now, it wouldn't take more than two or three years before he could plant golden rice on a large scale across the country.
"If I explain it in too technical terms, you might not understand. So I'll explain it in simple terms."
"First, let's talk about the degradation issue. Your golden rice, the first generation was very high-yielding, but what about the second generation? The third generation? The fourth generation?"
"Will it degenerate?"
"Will any other problems arise?"
Dean Wang asked.
Before large-scale promotion, it is essential to ensure that there will be no degradation, or that the degradation is within a controllable range, so that appropriate measures can be taken.
"Of course not..."
Wan Ping'an wanted to tell Dean Wang that it wouldn't happen.
His Golden Waterway is a carefully selected plantation system with highly stable characteristics, ensuring that its offspring will not degenerate.
But he didn't say it.
What evidence does he have?
The farming system must never be exposed.
How can we prove that the Golden Waterway won't degrade without exposing the farming system?
It cannot be proven.
Dean Wang and Elder Zhou certainly wouldn't take the risk, as it concerns the livelihoods of too many people; if something goes wrong, many people will starve to death.
Who can bear this responsibility?
We can only breed several generations and verify the research one generation at a time.
"Besides the degradation issue, there's also the issue of damage to the land. Could this golden waterway cause permanent damage to the land?"
"Will it cause incompatibility with other crops?"
Will it lead to specific pests and diseases?
"..."
Dean Wang raised a series of questions.
Wan Ping'an really wanted to tell them, "None of them will!"
But he couldn't produce any evidence!
"Ping An, I know you mean well and want to promote this as soon as possible so that people can have enough to eat."
"But we cannot promote it blindly, lest it cause irreparable damage."
Dean Wang sighed.
