Men and women eating in the courtyard

On July 9, that is, Wednesday, the working group issued a proposal for the advanced actions of the Study Security Office in the great study discussion.

The proposal pointed out that the Security Office had the courage to explore, be pragmatic and pragmatic in implementing the major study and discussion documents issued by superiors, and effectively promoted the study and publicity of this activity in the Security Office.

Deputy Director Feng Daozong, leader of the working group, emphasized in the document that all departments of the steel rolling mill should carry out study and publicity work on the documents of the big study and discussion activities as soon as possible, and solidly promote the work process related to the activities. While maintaining the tasks, they should also maintain the learning , protect the mind.

It is necessary to understand correct governance, understand the overall situation, clarify the economy, rationally plan organizations, determine correct ideas, and severely crack down on corruption and inertia in the study of correct governance.

The document also mentioned that the current situation of activities in the steel rolling mill is slow, deployment is poor, and implementation is not in place. We need to strengthen shortcomings and focus on publicity and organizational learning.

At the same time, we must also take into account the opinions of the heads of various departments and fully mobilize the enthusiasm and...

…

Just after receiving the study documents from the working group, Li Xuewu led the dual-plan training inspection team, the emergency rescue training inspection team, and the security training inspection team to visit the Red Star training ground.

These three inspection groups were organized under the leadership of the Security Department and invited relevant persons in charge from corporate factories, sister units, joint enterprises and other units within the system and surrounding areas.

They were grouped according to related businesses, led by Han Zhan, Han Yating and Yu Decai respectively, and gave a complete introduction to the various training projects currently organized by the Security Office at the training ground.

There was a big operation in the security office, and everyone in the courtyard saw it. Jeeps set off from the guest house, drove through the factory living area and office area, left the gate, and headed straight for Miyun.

This action was not convened by Li Xuewu to avoid the working group, nor did he have such appeal.

As early as a month ago, after the dual-plan training class started, Li Xuewu was organizing this event to promote the training ground project of the steel rolling mill.

Security training, emergency team training and training, dual plan execution team training, special service training, etc.

It is said to be a visit and inspection, but it is actually an exhibition and promotion, allowing these big customers to see the strength of the training ground of the steel rolling mill and the actual training situation.

Among the three inspection groups this time were the leaders and persons in charge of the teams that were being trained on the mountain.

After a month of training, I want to give an explanation to these people, and I can also show the actual effects of the training to those in charge of the units who are still hesitating.

As for the fact that today happened to coincide with the working group issuing study documents, it can only be said to be an unlucky coincidence.

There are five departments in the security department. The head of one department is on the mountain. The heads of three departments go up the mountain as leaders of the group. Only one person in charge of the confidential department is left in the factory.

Sha Qizhi looked at the convoy in front and behind, turned to Li Xuewu and asked: "Director, don't you make some arrangements in the factory?"

"What are the arrangements?"

Li Xuewu looked out the window. The scenery after leaving the city became more and more gorgeous, which made him feel a lot better. No wonder Li Shu had to go out to play every day.

"It is the best arrangement not to make arrangements now."

After Li Xuewu finished speaking, he looked at Sha Qizhi and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you ever heard of treating by doing nothing?"

"certainly……"

Of course Sha Qizhi knows what I said, but the situation in the factory is tense now. The inspection team and working group are working, and the leaders above are also working.

The main focus is on the upcoming mid-year meeting and the ideological fluctuations within the agency and among the workers during this period.

The Security Department, as the safety management red line of the steel rolling mill, was promoting sales at this time and had pulled out all the main people in charge. Sha Qizhi had no choice but to wonder what the director was conveying to all parties.

Although Li Xuewu did not say it explicitly, the sentence "governing by doing nothing" is already very illustrative.

Governance by inaction is the core idea of ​​Laozi's exposition of Taoism and nature. It is a direction and inspiration for explaining and understanding nature.

The simple understanding of treating by doing nothing may be that there is no need to do anything, and things will naturally get better.

In fact, this is wrong, very wrong.

Inaction does not mean not doing anything, nor does it mean acting randomly or indiscriminately, but "doing nothing without doing anything".

"Doing everything" means doing everything and doing everything at a higher level under the premise of obeying the laws of natural development.

After seeing the farce of the past few days, Li Xuewu understood that the situation had become overwhelming and there was no way to reverse it.

This storm is bound to sweep everything away. Faced with the complex situation and personnel relationships in the steel rolling mill, what he has to do and should do is to do nothing.

The water is now muddy enough, and he doesn't need to stir it anymore. He takes his time, watching the water turn, watching the mud become chaotic, and it will slowly stop and settle.

Too much intervention can only obscure the direction of history, and will also affect the creativity of the development of events.

Inaction means that Li Xuewu wants him not to do anything rashly and to be less involved in matters above.

As Confucius said: "Government based on virtue is like Beichen, who lives in his place and all the stars share it."

Li Xuewu has now established a foothold in the steel rolling mill, and has taken root in the fertile soil of the steel rolling mill. Don't worry, the sun and rain will fall when the time comes. He just needs to wait quietly, and he will come. The day it becomes a towering tree.

What we need to do now is to "govern with morality", make good use of the existing foundation, deepen the security office's own projects, firmly control the overall ideological trends of the security office, and create a professional team that listens to instructions and has an excellent style.

Every growth and progress of the Security Department is realizing his progress and growth.

In the end, he is the "Northern Star", "the one shared by all the stars".

Sha Qi didn't understand, but Li Xuewu didn't mean to explain it to him. He didn't understand some of the explanations. Only when he got to this position, put himself in his shoes, felt and thought, he would understand why he did what he did today. That makes sense.

Action and inaction are reflected in actions, and even more so in state of mind.

All Li Xuewu's actions are planned, purposeful and have a central idea.

The document issued by the working group today also mentioned Wang Jingzhang, the head of the service office, saying that the opinions of department heads should be respected, etc.

The working group dared to use Li Xuewu as a role model, but it did not dare to be a gunman like Wang Jingzhang.

Today's document mentions the Security Department. One reason is that the Security Department does a good job and does a solid job.

The second one was the last inspection incident, and the working group naturally had to give an explanation to the Security Department.

When Li Xuewu faced this document, or in the eyes of some people it was an honor, his heart did not waver at all.

Not pleased, not to have compassion.

Never care, no surprises!

For Wang Jingzhang, this document is neither an honor nor a surprise, but a big hand pushing him forward.

It was dark in front and nothing could be seen. It might be a cliff, or it might be a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire.

The hand at the back didn't care about him, he was just a victim pushed out to explore the way.

Faced with the same document, Li Xuewu could handle it calmly, but Wang Jingzhang had to be frightened. This was due to his original intention and his style of doing things.

Li Xuewu is very calculating at work. He works step by step and strives for progress steadily without leaving any loopholes for others.

Even if it's a flaw, it's still a trap. If you step into it, you'll definitely get into trouble.

He really wanted to be old and treat others leniently, but others didn't give him a chance.

Having climbed so high at such a young age, he was surrounded by scrutinizing eyes wherever he went, and there were even some unflattering little moves to test him.

How can you grow in this precarious environment without getting yourself covered in thorns?

How can you scare away those coveting eyes without carrying a bad reputation?

It can be said that after choosing the steel rolling mill and choosing to take this road, Li Xuewu had no choice but to fight his way through the obstacles and fight his way through the same dark environment.

Some people say that he has already succeeded, so why does he still show a bad image of being scheming, calculating, digging holes and burying people, etc. that is not easy to mess with?

The answer is that one can only commit a thief in a thousand days, but there is no one who can guard against a thief in a thousand days.

Li Xuewu wanted to "do politics with virtue", but only if he had the time and energy.

When he is governing with virtue, no one should interfere with him, influence him, or destroy the fruits of his labor.

Some cadres cannot do their jobs well not because of their incompetence, but often because of their interpersonal relationships or even the working environment.

If he changes his department or changes his environment, he might spread his wings and soar into the sky.

The reason is that some people don't see you succeeding, and they will step on you, hurt you, and disgust you.

Doesn’t Wang Jingzhang not want to work hard, make achievements and achieve progress?

He thinks too much and wants to make progress so much that he goes crazy!

So he doesn't have the ability?

Just look at the fact that he has been the head of the service department for so many years and you know that if he didn't have the ability, he would have been adjusted a long time ago.

I have ideas and abilities, but how did I get to where I am today?

Mentality, environment, and self-cultivation are all related.

Wang Jingzhang was ready to make progress, but he did not have the mentality to make progress, let alone the ferocity in the face of competition.

The last time he competed with Zhang Guoqi for the top spot in the steelmaking plant, he lost. He didn't know where he lost, and now he was competing for the top spot again.

The position of the deputy director of the joint enterprise is very good, but he doesn't look at who is competing. Not to mention the deputy director, even the control is fought with swords and swords. At this time, he can kill him and run away without being punished. He did.

The mechanism is just like this, if you make a mistake, you will make a mistake every step. Unless you have a big hand to protect you for a few years, you will not be afraid of this when you grow into a towering tree.

But this kind of opportunity is elusive, let alone at this time, who dares to reach out randomly.

The wind is strong and the waves are high, so patience is the best.

——

"Bang~bang~bang~"

"Bang~bang~bang~"

When the motorcade drove up the mountain, entered the training ground gate, and parked firmly in the parking lot, there were loud sounds of car doors and gunfire on the mountain.

The heads of these units who had just got off the bus all looked towards the mountain. Weapons training might be taking place over there, and because the training ground was right at the bottom of the mountain, the sound came through very clearly.

Wei Tong had been waiting for them for a long time. When he saw the convoy stopped, he found Li Xuewu's command vehicle and trotted over, followed by a group of cadres from the training department.

After Li Xuewu got out of the car, he also glanced towards the mountain, and then waved in the direction where Wei Tong ran.

The cadres of the training department understood what Li Xuewu meant, and immediately dispersed to find Han Zhan and others, and cooperated with organizing a visiting group to visit the predetermined location.

Visiting training is no stranger to these visiting group members, and some have even organized related activities.

However, they are still curious and inquiring about the Red Star training ground located deep in the Miyun Mountains of the steel rolling mill.

After going up the mountain, they were all refreshed by the scenery of Hongxing Village, the units under construction and production on the roadside, and the bursts of gunfire in the training ground compound and on the mountain.

The remote location means that the steel rolling mill is very valued here and is very confidential.

However, the steel rolling mill used actual conditions to illustrate that remote location does not mean backwardness.

When they walked to the rest area specially prepared for them and looked at the awning, dining table and chairs, hot tea, and the cans and small dishes on the table, they knew that life here was not what they thought. So backward and difficult.

Because we were traveling in a convoy, it took us more than two hours to arrive.

When everyone who was tired of traveling and traveling saw this preparation, they all showed expressions of joy.

This reception can be said to be full of sincerity, no worse than the reception at Yamashita.

Li Xuewu watched as the people in the training department invited these people to sit in the rest area. At the same time, he cooperated with Han Zhan and others to explain to these people the location and procedures they would visit today. He couldn't help but nodded to Wei Tong beside him and expressed his appreciation. .

The preparations are so complete. Considering that there are many people coming today, it is not convenient for everyone to go to the office area, nor is it suitable to go directly to the canteen. Instead, a simple rest area is set up in front of the office building. The layout is so complete that it can be seen that the training The people in the department listened to his request.

Last month, when Li Xuewu went up the mountain to deliver and install telecommunications equipment, he made it clear to Wei Tong that everyone in the visiting group might become customers of the training ground. How to entertain and arrange it was left to the training department. organize.

The main economic and work achievements of the training department come from training and training. The more units that come to the mountain, the better. The more people who come to participate in training, the more achievements they can make.

Earn more money for the Security Department, so that the Security Department can invest more funds here for construction.

Wei accompanied Li Xuewu to a secluded place and stood there. He smiled and reported to Li Xuewu: "We also brainstormed and asked Huaqing instructors, political commissar Wang, and many other people to come up with this form. ".

"Okay, black and white cats, any cat that can catch mice is a good cat!"

Li Xuewu patted Wei Tong's arm and said with a smile: "No matter what your work form is, the current results are no problem. Keep it up and let these units make up their minds and arrange for their people to come here to participate." Training is success."

"I see"

Wei Tong nodded with great understanding and reported to Li Xuewu: "The main procedures of today's visit are to visit daily training, visit Zhengzhi study and theoretical study, and visit the ongoing practical drills on the mountain."

"We will arrange to eat in the canteen at noon and also visit the dining situation in the canteen."

"In the afternoon, we will visit the dormitory during the students' rest time and let the visiting group see the students' daily rest situation."

"A symposium will be organized in the afternoon, and instructors and outstanding students from each team will be invited to participate."

Wei Tong gestured to the rest area and said: "The training experts, Zhengzhi teachers and management staff stationed here will be invited to participate in the afternoon, and some team training data will also be announced at that time."

"fine"

After listening to the report, Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Don't treat the visiting group specially when they come. Do nothing formal. Just follow the daily training procedures. What you show them is what you usually see."

"Of course"

Wei Tong smiled and nodded, saying: "These visiting groups include leaders of trainees, so no matter what arrangements are made, the secrets have to be revealed."

"We simply don't have any special arrangements."

Wei Tong is very happy working here. Li Xuewu can see that he smiles more than before, and he seems to be used to it.

"That's it, just follow your plan."

Li Xuewu nodded, gestured to the mountain and asked, "What is today's actual combat drill?"

"It's explosion and fire proof"

Wei Tong looked serious when Li Xuewu asked about the specific work and reported: "They are all drills for special subjects. People from each training team will be arranged to conduct drills once a week to achieve the training effect and purpose."

"Well, where's the communications class?"

Li Xuewu's eyes turned to the communication base station halfway up the mountain. After the installation was completed last month, it was directly handed over to the communication squad stationed here for management.

Wei Tong knew what Li Xuewu was concerned about, raised his hand to indicate the direction of the communications class and said: "Nowadays, communications training is carried out every day, and some students will also arrange to go up the mountain for internship exercises, mainly to cooperate with the communication platoon of our factory."

"Pay attention to confidentiality"

Li Xuewu nodded and Wei Tong emphasized: "Set up the people in the communications class as a special class, and then arrange security guards to be on duty. Don't make any mistakes."

"Don't worry, arrangements will begin after the handover."

Wei Tong has grown very quickly since he took over the training ground. He is very strict in everything he does and has a mature and steady attitude.

"People in the communications class take turns going up the mountain to be on duty. There are only four security guards and two communications personnel on duty every day. Every hour there will be people checking the posts to go around, and there will also be people from the 816th station to use the radio."

"I know this"

Li Xuewu nodded and said that he knew that the people from 816 would use the communication equipment there. This had been coordinated when the communication base station was originally built.

816 also has communication equipment, but it is not as big as the training ground, nor is it fixed like this one, so it is lacking in transmission distance and communication command distance.

They are all joint units. You are part of me, and you are part of me. If they are used by the people of 816, it will increase the confidentiality of the radio station.

Precisely because 816 was in use, the Beijing Telecommunications Inspection Department did not monitor this communication point. After all, it involved a special department, and 816's own management was probably even stricter than that of the Telecommunications Inspection Department.

I told Wei Tong about the situation at the training ground, and Han Zhan and others over there also explained clearly the procedures for today's visit.

After drinking tea and eating canned food, the members of the visiting group had almost rested. They all stood up and dispersed in different directions with their respective team leaders and personnel from the training department.

Because the content that each visiting group wants to see is different, and the teams participating in training here are also different, they can only be viewed separately.

Those who have training go to the practical training, those who are taking regular classes go to the regular classes, and those who are taking theoretical classes go to the theoretical classes.

Li Xuewu took Han Jiankun up the mountain, leaving Sha Qizhi behind with Wei Tong to provide logistical support for the visiting group.

He went up the mountain mainly to see the training ground, breeding area, reclamation area and breeding area on the mountain, and also to visit the team of the Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital that was inspecting and researching, and finally the communication base station he just mentioned to Wei Tong.

The road from Beijing to Miyun is not easy to walk. There are intermittent gravel roads and dirt roads.

The road conditions after going up the mountain are even worse. Because of the heavy rain in summer, there are deep ruts for a long section of the road, making it impossible for a car to get up.

It looked like it was rolled over by a big truck. When Li Xuewu came up, he felt the bump on his buttocks and thought that Lao Biaozi took the greatest credit.

The second half of the climb up the mountain was much better. The training teams on the mountain were arranged to come down in turns to build the road, including using large trucks to pull cinders and stone debris from the mountain to pave the road.

At least it is to ensure that the roadbed will not cause deep pits to become impassable due to rain erosion and other reasons.

This is also the reason why we arranged for those visiting group members to rest after arriving at the training ground.

As for why the road up the mountain is half good and half bad, it has to be said about Li Xuewu's careful arrangement.

Anyway, this road has to be built, slowly, until the world is at peace.

As for gravel roads, there are plenty of rocks on the mountains and cinders taken out of abandoned coal mines. You can repair them if you want.

But it can be built as planned. The roads at the foot of the mountain are less used, while the roads on the mountain are more used, so the roads on the mountain are built first.

The road from the training ground to the training ground on the mountain, as well as the road to the communication base station halfway up the mountain, are both heavily used roads.

Therefore, Li Xuewu did not feel any bumps when he was sitting in the car, and it was not as difficult as when he first went up the mountain.

The road up the mountain has been repaired, paved with cinders, laid a foundation, and built drainage ditches. It is very easy to walk.

Every day there are training teams going up and down the mountain, and any larger holes will be smoothed out.

It only took twenty minutes for the command vehicle to go from the training center at the foot of the mountain to the training ground on the mountain.

This is because there are many curves in the mountain road and I dare not drive fast. If it were a straight line, it might be a matter of pressing the accelerator.

Standing on the mountaintop platform and looking down, you can have a panoramic view of the small mountain village, training center, food factory, medical workstation, communication base station and other areas with green and gray colors.

Looking back, that mountain is higher than this mountain.

Li Xuewu first checked the training facilities at the mountaintop training ground, including simulated city high-rise buildings, shooting training ranges, third-line training grounds inside the cave, etc.

After reading this, Li Xuewu went to the nearby cave to look at the planting area. In summer, seedlings and seeds are mainly cultivated here. In winter, vegetables that do not require light can be continued to be planted.

This is a key project to improve the food in the canteens of the 816th Regiment and the training ground. It is also a key project to supply units at the foot of the mountain and create profits.

There were very few planted last year, and it was experimental in nature. The seeds were all collected from the village, so it was not comprehensive.

After half a year of development and renovation this year, the entire cave has been fully utilized.

Re-reinforce the areas that need to be strengthened, and re-modify the areas that need to be eliminated and tidied up.

Unsuitable caves were immediately sealed, while heating and lighting equipment were reinstalled and repaired.

Only then did the noise of the generator disappear, because with the joint efforts of the Engineering Office of the 816th Regiment and the Engineering Office of the Steel Rolling Mill, a circuit was led from the bottom of the mountain up the mountain to supply the training ground, as well as the breeding area and other areas here. .

Not only people from 816 work in the cultivation area, but also outstanding representatives elected from Shanxia Hongxing Village, who participate in the basic work of the cultivation area.

He is said to be an outstanding representative, but in fact he is just a reliable person who was arranged by Yin Mancang to go to the mountains to participate in labor.

In the area designated for the medical workstation inside the cave, Li Xuewu met his third brother Li Xuecai who was interning here.

He was also very happy to see his second brother Li Xuecai suddenly, and he kept asking about the situation at home.

The young people working together here also laughed, their eyes full of envy.

It's not that I envy Li Xuecai for having such an awesome second brother, but that he can see his relatives.

Some of these young people are interns from traditional Chinese medicine hospitals, and some are interns recruited from various medical schools this year.

There are also children of medical cadres such as Li Xuecai’s classmate Zhao Xia, the son of the deputy director of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.

Their purpose for going up the mountain was the same as Li Xuecai's. It was arranged by their families, or they didn't want to get involved in those things at school.

As for the interns, they were reluctant when they first came, but starting from last month, and then this month, the news about the internal affairs of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital that came to the mountain from time to time made them all become more honest.

Here there are masters teaching, patients can be diagnosed and treated for practice, there are endless cultivation and cultivation of Chinese herbal medicines on the mountain, and there are also research topics on Chinese patent medicines.

These jobs are hard and the environment is tough, but they are much better than the precarious situation at the foot of the mountain.

People are afraid of comparison, and the environment is also afraid of comparison. They suffer more here, and they can be more willing to look at the conditions down the mountain.

Li Xuewu could see the envy in the eyes of these young people, and ignored Li Xuecai. Instead, he shook hands with the teacher from the traditional Chinese medicine hospital who was in charge of the work here, exchanged a few words, and then shook hands with the interns. Expressed condolences.

Finally, I briefly told my third brother about the situation at home and asked him to study hard, study hard, and hone his skills down-to-earth with the young people studying here.

Only those who can endure loneliness can maintain a prosperous future.

After seeing the breeding area, Li Xuewu took Han Jiankun to the reclamation area and breeding area in the mountains.

The 816th Regiment has been frantically reclaiming the mountains here this year, felling trees and planting fields, hoping to solve their supply problem in one step.

Although it has the support of the steel rolling mill and Hongxing Village at the foot of the mountain, and also uses some mechanical power, so far, Li Xuewu knows that the currently cultivated farmland and vegetable fields are not enough to meet the consumption of the thousands of people on the mountain.

Fortunately, they have their own rations, and solving the supply problem is also a goal.

The reclamation of mountainous areas is inherently difficult. The newly reclaimed wasteland needs to be tamed and the soil structure improved in the first one or two years, so the yield of crops is not very high.

This is science. Human changes and impacts are insufficient, so we can only wait.

This year Qi Yaowu spent most of his time in the reclamation area. He led the people of the 816th Regiment to not only reclaim farmland, but also reclaimed part of the Chinese herbal medicine test field for the medical workstation.

It’s not that they actively contribute, but that the Chinese Herbal Medicine Research Center also has their share.

Li Xuewu did not leave them behind when they reached the cooperation, and while enjoying the benefits, they also had to complete relevant obligations.

It is their job to cooperate with medical staff in the cultivation and research of Chinese herbal medicine.

Li Xuewu walked around and finally found Qi Yaowu in the vegetable field.

Looking at Qi Yaowu carrying a dung bucket on his shoulders, Li Xuewu admired this regiment-level commander from the bottom of his heart.

Able to fight, able to think, able to take responsibility, and capable of achievement.

It seems that there were many cadres who took the lead at this time, but there are fewer and fewer in later generations.

Seeing Li Xuewu coming with his men, General Qi Yao put the dung bucket on his shoulder, smiled at Li Xuewu and waved his hand, then motioned Li Xuewu to go to the lake, and he also walked that way.

Li Xuewu and Han Jiankun looked at the farmland and vegetable fields transformed from the hillside, as well as the fruit trees and artificial lakes for fish farming in the distance.

I guess Qi Yaowu would be a little happy doing farm work here.

Qi Yaowu is much older than Li Xuewu. He is thirty-six years old and was born in 1930. He is a generation that has experienced hardships.

This generation cherishes farmland. As a major agricultural country, the people here have a special affection for the land.

Walking through the vegetable field, Li Xuewu looked at the busy soldiers, with expressions of satisfaction and hope on their faces.

"The cabbage is growing very well."

"Hahaha~"

Hearing Li Xuewu's compliment, Qi Yaowu stood up from the lake with a smile, stretched out his freshly washed hand and shook Li Xuewu's hand.

Li Xuewu didn't see him last time he went up the mountain, and the two of them hadn't talked for a while.

Standing here this time, Qi Yaowu and Li Xuewu both have a sense of accomplishment.

"You haven't caught up with the potatoes yet."

Qi Yaowu smiled and took the cigarette handed over by Li Xuewu. He lit it and introduced: "In the spring, we estimate that we can get more than 3,000 kilograms. How much do you think we actually got?"

"Haha, I guess there must be too many."

Li Xuewu nodded Qi Yaowu with the hand holding the cigarette, and said with a smile: "Look at your smiling face, why is it not worth five hundred kilograms!"

"Five hundred kilograms? Haha!"

Qi Yaowu laughed as if he heard a joke, patted Li Xuewu's arm gently, and said proudly: "Let me tell you, it's more than 4,600 kilograms, almost over 5,000!"

"Good guy, how did you grow it!"

Li Xuewu was indeed surprised. He had never done farm work or grown vegetables, and his original estimate was also a rough guess made by Yin Mancang.

Seeing Li Xuewu's surprised expression, Qi Yaowu was very satisfied. He smiled and motioned to the soldiers who were watering the vegetables and explained: "We grow vegetables, cultivate them intensively, and pour fertilizers and water. We are careful."

“If you don’t collect grain from a good land, it’s all down to your father and mother.”

Qi Yaowu said with a smile: "If you keep up with this diligently, you can even grow golden knots on the ground."

"Hehehe~"

Li Xuewu laughed at his proud look and teased: "Commander Qi, do you still remember the skills of leading troops? Are you going to disband and return to the fields and become a field man?"

"Hehe~ If you want to say that the fields are good, I also like it here!"

Qi Yaowu glanced around the area with great feeling. It turned out to be wasteland, mountains, and weeds.

After half a year of hard work, it has now become fertile farmland. How can we not be proud?

"With these thousands of kilograms of potatoes and the cabbages in the fields, we can have a good year!"

“Really hard work”

Li Xuewu nodded after hearing Qi Yaowu's emotion, expressing his agreement with him.

The severe situation this year has already emerged. It is said that in Longjiang Province, no one has harvested the crops, and everyone is engaged in activities.

This is a very serious problem. If there is no one to supply food, the city will once again face a food shortage.

Qi Yaowu is in the mountainous area, but his mind and heart are not as disarmed and returned to the fields as Li Xuewu said. He is always paying attention to changes in the situation, and naturally knows what the food situation may be like this year.

Now that there is a lot of corn planted in the mountains, even if there is a shortage of food, he will not panic. It will not be a problem to survive the winter.

Seeing Li Xuewu's worried expression, Qi Yaowu smiled, pointed in the direction of the orchard and introduced: "We also planted sweet potatoes over there. You will not be short of sweet potatoes this year."

"Haha~"

Li Xuewu was also amused by Qi Yaowu's words, and the worry that had just emerged involuntarily was washed away.

When Qi Yaowu saw Li Xuewu smiling, he also smiled, and then continued: "Don't worry, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. It's useless to think about it now."

After that, he gestured to the artificial lake dug in the spring and said: "At worst, we will eat fish this year, and the fish will be enough!"

"Hahaha! Okay!"

Li Xuewu smiled and nodded, and said to Qi Yaowu: "Then I look forward to a bumper harvest in our reclamation area this year!"

"This is for sure!"

Qi Yaowu smiled and nodded, his eyes following Li Xuewu as he looked at the fruit trees on the hillside, the sweet potato fields under the fruit trees, and then at the corn fields and cabbage fields under the hillside.

The water in the artificial lake comes from the mountain, and when it is full, it will continue to flow downstream.

The lake water will be used to irrigate mountains and vegetable fields, fruit trees and sweet potato fields.

Qi Yaowu said that this year's crop harvest will be good, which has a lot to do with the soldiers working hard in the fields.

To feed thousands of people is impossible without a certain amount of hard work, especially now that the number of people in the training ground is also increasing, and this burden has become even greater.

It's not that people at the training ground don't have to pay for meals, but it's a question of where to buy food if they have the money.

Buying food from the mountains and transporting it to the mountains is another cost issue.

If the harvest of the reclamation area can meet the consumption of all units on the mountain, then the supplies of all units on the mountain will be supplied by the reclamation area, and the corresponding expenses will also be paid to the reclamation area.

This is a virtuous cycle. Now we just need to open up the production links in the reclamation area.

As long as the grain can be sold, the reclamation area will be profitable, further easing the supply pressure of the 816th Regiment.

Especially the development of orchards, fisheries, animal husbandry, and breeding industries. No wonder Qi Yaowu told Li Xuewu not to worry. As long as they were given time, this place would definitely become a cornucopia.

It is indeed a cornucopia. Qi Yaowu introduced Li Xuewu to the fat fish in the artificial lake. Because they are wild, no one comes to catch them, and the density is very high.

Li Xuewu knew that if there was water at this time, there would indeed be fish, and there must be big fish in the deep pit.

There was no need for Li Xuewu to remind him. Qi Yaowu himself said that he did not plan to fish on a large scale this year. Without such a large consumption, fishing would be a waste.

It's better to keep it here, since it's very close anyway, just satisfy the canteen at the foot of the mountain.

Qi Yaowu took Li Xuewu around the breeding area, and there were a lot more wild boars in the large pig pen.

"They are all caught in traps during reclamation, otherwise they will harm the crops."

Qi Yaowu pointed at the wild boars in the pig pen and explained to Li Xuewu: "Basically all the boars have been killed, and only one is left here to be used as seed, which saves fighting."

Li Xuewu looked down and saw that there were many piglets, which seemed to be new this year.

Qi Yaowu said with a smile: "We don't understand the postpartum care of sows, so we invited people from the village to take care of them. However, the pigs here are very wild and are not allowed to come close, so there is not much we can do."

After that, he took Li Xuewu to the other side of the hillside. The forest here was too big and was not suitable for cultivating farmland, so it was turned into a livestock area.

The cattle and sheep brought back from the border are all grazing here. There are soldiers wearing green clothes riding horses around nearby, with long guns on their horses. They are obviously on guard.

"It's a wolf, very fierce"

Qi Yaowu curled his lips and said: "It's okay in the summer. There is food in the mountains. They came and made trouble for a while and then left. I'm afraid they won't be careful this winter."

"Is there anything else?"

Li Xuewu thought of the little fox he saw here last time, but he reminded him: "We met a leopard when we came here for the first time."

"We've seen it too"

Qi Yaowu nodded and said: "But that thing is very smart. It won't come down when it sees so many people working here."

After speaking, he gestured with his hands to several points in the livestock area and said: "I have people set up machine gun posts. As long as the cattle are grazing, there will be people on duty."

"You are cruel"

Li Xuewu smiled, looked at the cattle and sheep in the forest, and asked: "How many years will it take before we can eat the beef and mutton here?"

"It won't be long!"

Qi Yaowu said with confidence: "As long as you work hard, the mountains are full of cattle and sheep, and you can eat as much as you want."

"Blow it, eat cow dung~"

"Hahaha~"

The two gradually became good friends because of their cooperation, and because they have common goals and interests, they now talk and laugh together.

Coming down from the mountain, Qi Yaowu took the initiative and asked, "How is the situation down the mountain?"

After finishing speaking, he straightened his expression and said, "I heard that your situation is not very good."

"Um"

Li Xuewu knew which side Qi Yaowu was talking about. The steel rolling mill had always been a partner, so he naturally understood the situation of the steel rolling mill.

The question now is not about the steel rolling mill, but about the branch office.

He must have heard about what happened in the city bureau some time ago. Coupled with Li Xuewu's series of actions in the security brigade, Qi Yaowu even guessed something.
