Chapter 727. Join in the celebration
"Hello everyone, you are so polite. We have selfish motives. We want to make money by selling seedlings. If you want to thank someone, you should thank that netizen. It was he who compiled the information of your village to participate in the lottery. He is the one who has no other desire and is doing good deeds with a single heart."
Luo Yihang hid his own credit and left his thanks to netizens.
The fellow villagers on the other end of the phone should have thought of the win-win situation that Luo Yihang mentioned at the press conference.
Gradually quiet down.
After a pause of a few seconds, an old voice sounded, "I am Erdeni, the village secretary of Piyingtai Village. On behalf of all the villagers, including 87 households and 319 people in Piyingtai Village, I would like to thank you, lurpipipip, doula, dididi, this netizen. You are a good friend of our whole village. Welcome to Piyingtai Village to eat mutton and drink mutton soup."
Judging from the name, Piyingtai Village is a Mongolian village.
Or Mongolians and Han people may live together.
It's really hard for the village secretary to pronounce such a difficult name word for word.
The audience in the live broadcast room were moved.
[Ding ding ding, your life is worth it], [Good friends of the whole village, so happy], [The old village chief is so serious, so many households and so many people in the village have said that they really, really want to get rid of poverty], [Expectation for a better life]
[Lulala, no matter you are a man or a woman, or how old you are, I declare that you are also my good friend]
[Why not me? I posted it too. I want to be good friends too.]
……
After Mr. Erdeni thanked the netizens.
Luo Yihang felt regretful.
"Oh, if I had known you were all here, I should have started the live broadcast earlier."
I just thought that there would be the most people online at nine o'clock, but I didn't consider that there were so many villagers waiting too.
"It's okay, it's okay. We are willing to wait as long as it takes." Shang Guangtai from the Poverty Alleviation Office has a good attitude.
They won the lottery, how could it be bad?
Fortunately, they still had the common sense and did not show off, otherwise the other poor villages who were watching the live broadcast would be sad.
But it feels fast.
Luo Yihang quickly got down to business, "Please tell me about the local situation."
"Okay." Shang Guangtai organized his words and said, "Piyinggetai Village belongs to Engebei Town. It was established in 1956. There are eight villages nearby, with a total area of 400 square kilometers and a population of 1952."
In other words, there are eight villages with similar conditions in this area, with a total population of less than two thousand.
The area is really large.
"Eight villages including Piyinggetai have jointly organized a cooperative for common prosperity, with a total of 4300 mu of arable land."
"Of these, 2,700 acres were snatched from the sea of sand over 30 years ago. They have sandy soil and are relatively poor. They are all Class 6 and Class 7 farmland."
Level six or seven means low fertility and poor drainage and irrigation.
Such fields are basically abandoned in the plains as the investment is high and the output is low, which is not cost-effective.
But it was these fields that were "snatched" from the sea of sand by the locals, who spent more than 30 years.
The simple word "grab" contains the sweat, hard work, blood and tears of so many people, as well as the youth of so many people.
Alas, I dare not think about it.
Luo Yihang held Ding Xiaoman and sat back on the table, changing the subject: "Just now I looked at the satellite image and there seems to be a river nearby. Is there water? How far away is it? Can it be used for irrigation?"
"There is water, there is water." This time it was the old man Erdeni who answered quickly, "That is the Heilaigou, which flows into the Yellow River. It is more than three miles away. There is a canal that can bring water."
"How is the water volume?" Luo Yihang asked again.
This time it was Shang Guangtai who answered again: "It was not possible before, there was too much sediment and not much water. In 18, the city carried out a sediment retention and water exchange project, and built 151 sediment retention dams on the Heilai Valley to retain floodwaters and reduce the amount of sediment entering the Yellow River, thereby replacing part of the water used to transport sediment from the Yellow River. By this year, 2800 million cubic meters have been replaced, and agricultural water use can basically be met."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sensation on the barrage.
[What project? More than a hundred dams?]
[I saw that the small river that flows into the Yellow River is so narrow that more than a hundred dams were built to block the sand. I haven’t heard of that.]
[No wonder the Yellow River has become clearer. What is an infrastructure maniac?]
[How come this kind of thing is not publicized? If such a project were carried out abroad, it would be publicized all over the world, and 800 media outlets would promote it for a year.]
[I found out that the local government issued a notice saying that this had happened, and then that was it... that was it...]
While netizens were discussing this heatedly, Luo Yihang said again, "Help me pick up Lao Qi."
Soon, Qi Ruomu answered the phone. It was a video call, which was displayed directly on a screen.
"Lao Qi, how are the soil samples from the central area of the Kubuqi Desert doing?" Luo Yihang asked directly without beating around the bush.
Qi Ruomu also didn't waste any time and went straight to work. "The soil layer is three to four centimeters thick, the lower layer is sandy and semi-sandy, and lacks organic matter."
"What's the solution?"
"Artificial nitrogen and phosphorus supplementation and potash fertilizer are sufficient. But it's not a long-term solution. Use organic alternatives, make a bend at the outlet, and plant green foxtail algae. Transport 300 tons of earthworm soil from your place to increase organic matter."
"and many more."
Luo Yihang interrupted Qi Ruomu first.
"Take it again, Shi Juan."
Soon, Shi Juan appeared on another screen.
This time Luo Yihang didn't even need to speak. She said directly, "The early breeding technology of the Sichuan Academy of Agricultural Sciences is very good. I can save five days. The soil layer is too thin, and ridge making is afraid of damaging the soil layer. We need to use flat cultivation. Anyway, there is no need to worry about drainage there."
"Brother Qi is an expert in fertilization. I have no objection."
Finally there is some good news.
At this time, someone outside the live broadcast camera shouted, "Professor Zhao from Huazhong Agricultural University requests to be connected."
"Bring it in." Luo Yihang agreed immediately.
Soon, a middle-aged man appeared on the third screen. It was Professor Zhao who had been here during the last study tour. He was also not polite and said directly: "Our school's agricultural machinery major has newly developed a shallow seeding pendant, which should be suitable for the soil conditions in the Kubuqi Desert. It's just a large agricultural machinery pendant."
"That's great." The second piece of good news appeared, and Luo Yihang turned around and asked, "Brother Shang, has the local agricultural machinery ramp been reserved? Is it for the whole field or divided into blocks?"
"The entire field has low ridges and no reinforcement." Shang Guangtai replied immediately.
"Okay, let's just push the ridge." Luo Yihang made the decision immediately.
At this time, another connection was connected.
"Boss, the Intelligent Agricultural Machinery Equipment Engineering Laboratory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences."
"Get in."
A figure appeared on the fourth screen.
An acquaintance.
"Mr. Liu, long time no see." Luo Yihang greeted him.
Engineer Liu smiled and said, "Mr. Luo, let's not be polite. Our laboratory has a modified version of the Honghu T200J, which is specially designed for the northern plains. We can provide two."
Luo Yihang waved his fist and said excitedly: "That's great, at least we can buy another three days."
Then Engineer Liu asked Professor Zhao, "Professor Zhao, what is the interface of your pendant?"
Professor Zhao replied: "Traction type, T2779 standard, can be modified if necessary."
"No problem, it can be matched. Mechanical or electronic control? Does it need a separate power supply..."
The two began to discuss professional issues.
"Boss, Northwest Agricultural University requests access."
"Get in."
"Mr. Luo, I've heard of your name for a long time. You are a talented person in our province. We can't do much to help, but we will do our part. Our school will arrange ten experts and twenty students to conduct a field survey. They will do some trivial work and organize the information throughout the trip."
Northwest A&F University sounded very modest, but in fact, they sent people to provide on-site guidance.
You have to follow the whole process, this work is too critical.
"Boss, Northeast Agricultural University requests access..."
"Boss, Imperial Capital Agricultural University..."
"Boss, the Institute of Environment of the Chinese Academy of Sciences..."
