Chapter 36: Reclamation

I have an appointment with Uncle Wang to get wheat seeds the day after tomorrow. I need to write a letter of introduction when I go to the county town.

Gu Yiye said, "Director Liu, the introduction letter needs to be opened. There is one more thing. I estimate that I need to plant wheat on 20 to 30 mu of land."

When Liu Jianshe heard this, he stood up in fear: "Gu boy, the wind is loose now, but if you want so much land, you will be reported by someone with ulterior motives and regarded as a capitalist. This is unacceptable!"

Lin Shanshan saw Director Liu's anxious look and knew that he really cared about Gu Yiye, so she hurriedly explained: "Director Liu, I'm afraid there will be drought this year. The rice grains will not be harvested. Plant some wheat just in case."

"Drought this year? I haven't heard about it?" Director Liu replied.

Lin Shanshan did not argue, but said, "Just in case. Who can say the weather?"

Director Liu is almost 50 years old. He grew up eating tree bark and Guanyin soil.

People who have experienced hunger are most afraid of having no food.

Director Liu said: "You are right. We should prepare for both situations. There is a large piece of wasteland at the foot of the mountain at the west end of the village. It is estimated to be more than 30 mu. You can go and reclaim it. But first of all, the land is still considered collective."

Gu Yiye said: "Of course, how to pay the public grain?"

Director Liu recalled and said: "According to the regulations, 10 kilograms of grain per mu in the first year of reclamation, and from the second year onwards, it will be normal, usually 50 kilograms per mu."

Lin Shanshan felt it was fair. Although the land reclaimed in the first year was not fertile, the amount paid was also very small. Moreover, she had the double blessing of Shennong bloodline and Shennong space, so she could definitely grow to the current level of 800 kilograms per mu.

Gu Yiye nodded and said, "Okay, that's no problem. Thank you, Director Liu. What procedures do we need to go through?"

Liu Jianshe said, "I'll just give you a certificate. I'll go to the commune tomorrow to get it stamped and give it to you."

Liu Jianshe is the director of the brigade and is in charge of the militia company. His power is no less than Zhu Shengli's. Moreover, the land reclamation is just in his charge, so he can do it.

Gu Yiye said, "Thank you, Director Liu. Please write a letter of introduction for me for the day after tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I can't come back in one day."

Liu Jianshe asked, "Are you and Lin Zhiqing going together? Are you going to stay outside for two days?"

Gu Yiye did not hide it and said directly, "Yes, we are dating."

Liu Jianshe looked at Gu Yiye and then at Lin Shanshan. One is tall and mighty, and the other is beautiful. They are a good match.

"If we date, we should date seriously, with the purpose of getting married."

Gu Yiye smiled and said, "We will definitely get married. Director Liu, don't worry."

Liu Jianshe wrote a letter of introduction for the two to go to the county town for two days, and gave Gu Yiye some sweet wine brewed by his own family to take home.

The two rode their bicycles back the same way, and at this time the brigade's radio sounded.
