Siheyuan: I am Liu Guangqi

The staff who followed Bai Zhanyuan for the inspection stayed in Liujia Village for a whole day and witnessed with their own eyes the bumper harvest of the corn fields in Liujia Village. After a day of picking and weighing, the average corn yield in Liujia Village reached 750 kilograms per mu, which was higher than that of Liujia Village.

It has doubled since last year.

That afternoon, the bespectacled young man returned to the newspaper office with the collected materials. The headline of the next day's newspaper published the story of Liujiacun's corn harvest.

I originally thought that this incident would cause public revelry, but everyone who saw the news was skeptical of the content of the report. After all, the news was too incredible.

Even a professor from the Agricultural College rushed to the newspaper office after seeing the news, and directly scolded the newspaper editor for publishing fake news.

Regarding this situation, the editor of the newspaper did not panic at all. He directly told the professor the address of Liujiacun and told the professor that the corn harvest in Liujiacun was complete. If he did not believe it, he could go to the field to verify it in person.

Hearing what the newspaper editor said, the professor rushed towards Liujiacun with his school without stopping at all. When they arrived at Liujiacun, the professor was dumbfounded. They actually saw a brand new corn variety, and it was being planted in the entire village.

.

After the professor talked to Mr. Wu, he excitedly came to the cornfield with his students. After picking and weighing them, they found that the yield of these cornfields was actually the same as what was said in the newspaper, except that there was no

In addition to reaching the highest yield per mu, it is actually a little higher than the average yield per mu published in newspapers.

This really surprised them. After all, the emergence of this new type of corn can save them from too many detours.

After confirming the high yield of corn, the professor found Liu Guangqi's family after inquiring and took some corn from Liu Guangqi's house. After returning to school, the professor immediately compared the new corn with the previous corn.

In the past, corn was short and small, with shriveled and thin kernels. However, the new corn brought back by Liu Guangqi was not only thick and long, but also had plump and thick kernels.

The most important thing is that one corn stalk can hold four to five cobs, while the original corn stalk can only have three cobs at most.

From this point, we can see that the reason why Liujia Village has a bumper corn harvest is not only the use of chemical fertilizers and changes in farming methods, but also the change in varieties. The same farming method can only be harvested for up to five years if the previous corn harvest is replaced.

More than a hundred kilograms.

After coming to this conclusion, the professor immediately reported the discovery to the college. After verification, the college reported the report to the relevant higher-level departments, including a report from the Agricultural College and a high-yield certificate from the district government.

The higher-level government immediately replaced the corn harvested by Liujiacun this year. The key point was that Liu Guangqi’s corn. Except for dozens of kilograms of grain seeds, the remaining two thousand kilograms were all replaced. Of course, the government did not allow Liujiacun’s corn to be harvested.

People who eat fast are basically subsidized.

These things all happened after Liu Guangqi returned to the city. In order to improve the situation in Liujia Village, Liu Guangqi did everything he could. He organized cooperation groups to improve efficiency, built breeding farms to increase collective property, improved roads and canals to facilitate transportation, introduced

Chemical fertilizers, changing farming methods, etc. The rest of the things are beyond the control of Liu Guangqi, a student.

Time has come to mid-October in the blink of an eye. Due to heavy rains in the south, the grain production in southern production areas has been greatly reduced. In addition, a large number of rural laborers have entered the city to become workers, and the food pressure of urban residents has become increasingly serious. In order to solve these problems.

On the other hand, in order to ban grain speculation and ensure the smooth progress of people's lives and national construction, on October 16, 1953, the Central Committee issued the "Resolution on Implementing Planned Procurement and Planned Supply of Grain", which decided to implement planned grain procurement and supply nationwide.

, implement planned grain purchase (referred to as unified purchase) and planned supply (referred to as unified marketing) in a step-by-step manner.

On October 19, the Government Affairs Council issued an order to implement unified sales and purchasing. In compliance with this order, the city first carried out a planned supply of flour based on the actual situation of short supply in bj, and held a joint meeting of city government committee members on October 27.

, passed the "Resolution on Implementing Planned Supply of Flour in BJ City", and after submitting it to the Central Committee for approval, planned flour supply (quantitative distribution) was implemented from November 1, 1953, and flour was supplied with a "flour purchase certificate".

On November 13, 1953 bj, the Municipal Grain Bureau was established, opened on the 21st, and issued "flour purchase certificates" to each household.

The denominations of "flour purchase certificates" are divided into five types: 1 city catty, 4 city catties, 8 city catties, 10 city catties, and "collective purchase certificates" that can be purchased and filled out as needed. All residents of this city and town will be registered by the public security station according to their official household registration.

Each person will be issued a unified purchase certificate for 8 pounds of flour every month;

In addition, according to different types of work, belonging to public and private enterprises, farms, institutions, groups, cultural and educational students... The unit where they work will issue an additional 4 jins of flour purchase certificate per person per month, totaling 12 jins;

If it belongs to industry and mining, railway, construction, loading and unloading, and public transportation, the unit will issue an additional 10 city jins of flour purchase certificate per person per month, totaling 18 city jins;

As for foreign consulates and hospital patients, please fill in the collective purchase certificate according to the actual number of needs.

On November 15, the Government Affairs Council issued the "Decision on the Planned Purchase of Oils in the Country," which stipulated that the state would implement planned purchases of oils and edible oils, and implement planned supply of edible oils in cities, industries, and mines.

On December 1st, bj, Tianjin and Tianjin began to implement planned supply of rice and coarse grains. Other big cities also implemented planned supply soon. Due to the shortage of oil compared with rice, Shanghai implemented planned supply of cooking oil and flour first, and then implemented planned supply of rice.

.

Since then, New China has completely entered the era of unified sales and purchase, and various tickets have quickly entered people's lives.

Youdao is a prophet of spring water. Never underestimate the political sensitivity of old bj people. After all, they grew up under the feet of the emperor. As soon as the government set the tone, the public spread it.

On October 19th, Liu Guangqi was sitting in the medical clinic reading a book when he saw a group of people running past the door of the medical clinic.

"Oh my god, what are all these people doing? Isn't something big happening?"

Huzi also became nervous when he saw the hurried appearance of these people.

Liu Guangqi glanced in the direction where those people were running and knew that these people must have gone to the grain store to grab food. In the past few months, he had purchased ten tons of gold and silver from Cixi's treasure, either explicitly or covertly.

Grain is stored in space.

In addition, he can grow food in his space, so he is not panic at all now.

"Man, what's going on? I'm so worried."

A somewhat panicked Huzi stopped a passerby and asked.

"You don't know yet. There is not enough food to eat after the disaster in the south. The country will soon plan to provide food. From now on, everyone can only buy eight kilograms of white flour every month. Isn't this going to starve people to death? Brother, you too

Stop being stuck here and go to the grain store to sell grain. If you don’t buy it, you won’t be able to buy it anymore.”

"It's broken, Mr. Liu, let's close the door quickly and sell food."

Huzi's expression changed when he heard this, and he shouted loudly after returning to the hospital.

"It shouldn't be. Even if there is no shortage of food, we can't just let people eat eight kilograms of food a month. Doesn't this push people to a dead end? Is this world going back to the world of eating mixed noodles?"

Even the well-informed Master Liu trembled in his heart when he heard the news and whispered. The other guys and apprentices couldn't help but get scared when they saw Master Liu like this. Master Liu has been an old bj for decades. See you in the big scene.

He has been guilty of countless mistakes, so this must be a big deal.

"Why are you panicking? We are only planning to supply white flour. Other grains are not included in the supply for the time being. Even if other grains are also planned to be supplied, it will definitely not be eight kilograms. Although our country is short of food, it is not that short of it."

Liu Guangqi looked at the panicked crowd and said, although these words had a certain comforting effect, everyone still felt a little unsure.

A few people discussed it and decided to go with the crowd. After all, they had food in their hands and they didn't feel panic. So they took the bags and rushed to the nearest food store. Even an old Jianghu like Mr. Liu was no exception. It seemed that he was occupied by the Japanese.

The memories of the times scare me.

For a time, Liu Guangqi was the only one left in the entire medical center. Liu Guangqi came to the door carrying a purple clay pot that he bought from Liulichang a few days ago. The originally lively street suddenly became much more depressed, with only a few passing pedestrians walking quickly.

Then, even the shops on both sides of the street were closed.

It seems that this rumor is really powerful. Someone must be behind it, otherwise the news would not spread so fast and so widely. If the government does not respond well, trouble will definitely occur.
