I, Qi Tongwei, will never yield, even if it means defeating fate by half a move.

Chapter 31 Good News

Back in Gushanling Township, Qi Tongwei threw himself back into his work.

Before the Lunar New Year, the township had already prepared its work plan for the new year, and after the holiday, it would be time to officially begin the work.

In 91, the agricultural technology station also had a heavy task: to not only increase the promotion of agricultural technology, but also to significantly increase the grain output of the whole township.

We must also vigorously promote vegetable cultivation, expanding the vegetable planting area to thousands of acres, making it a major highlight of Gushanling Township.

The reason for adding the word "significant" is that the agricultural technology promotion in 90 was not very effective, the grain output of the whole township did not increase much, and the agricultural performance was at the bottom of the whole county.

The agricultural work in 90 was praised because it included vegetable cultivation, which became a highlight.

The township should expand this highlight and turn it into an economic growth point for the township.

In this way, this year's results will be greatly improved.

However, since the New Year holiday had just ended, everyone's minds were still on work and they hadn't gotten back into the swing of things yet.

Qi Tongwei ignored all of that, focusing on both replanting the 100 mu of vegetables from last year and expanding the narrative of China's rise as a great power.

Many of the more than 100 mu of vegetables planted last year have already been harvested, and it's time to plant new vegetables.

This work must also be carried out in an orderly manner.

The expanded version of "The Rise of a Great Power" is a major source of income for him this year. Qi Tongwei needs to hurry up and finish writing it before sending it to the Southern Daily and the Huacheng Morning Post.

In addition, there is the planting of thousands of acres of vegetables this year, and the land and seedlings need to be prepared in advance.

We'll continue to buy rapeseed from the College of Agriculture at Handong University; that way we can save some money.

Alternatively, they can seek guidance from professors at the College of Agriculture, Handong University, thus facilitating cooperation.

This gives us a glimmer of hope to get included in the "vegetable basket" project, after all, Handong University's reputation is well-deserved.

A week flew by, and the Lantern Festival arrived in the blink of an eye.

Because he didn't go home for the Chinese New Year, Qi Tongwei decided to go home for a visit.

Otherwise, the villagers would think he had become a different person after going to university.

"Awei, why are you back? I heard everyone in the village is very busy after the New Year!"

Qi's mother, Li Lanying, said with a mixture of excitement and worry.

I was thrilled that my son was back, even though he was on duty during the Lunar New Year and couldn't come home.

But my son has finally found a job, so of course he should focus on work.

The worry is that Qi Tongwei secretly ran back, and it wouldn't be good if the leaders found out.

"Yes, Wei, everything is fine at home, you don't need to worry."

Qi Dashan, Qi's father, said that as a father, he hoped his son would become an official.

Although his son is now a cadre, which gives him some prestige in the village, he is not an official after all.

If your son becomes an official, that's true prestige in the village.

To become an official, one must do their job well in order to gain the approval of their superiors.

"Dad, Mom, we're not that busy. Many things were decided before the new year!"

Qi Tongwei gave a brief explanation.

"So, are you going to stay a couple more days this time you're back?"

Mother Qi asked, "Son, you don't get a holiday during the Spring Festival, but you should be on holiday now."

"Mom, we're only staying for one day. Agricultural technology is crucial to the people's food supply, so we can't afford to delay."

Qi Tongwei said that he was just going home normally and wouldn't stay any longer.

After exchanging pleasantries, Qi's parents busied themselves preparing delicious food for Qi Tongwei.

My brother, sister-in-law, and child went back to my parents' home. My younger sister also left for school early. Only my father and mother are at home.

Qi Tongwei left early the next morning.

Back in Gushanling Township, Qi Tongwei continued his work from before the Lantern Festival.

A few days later, Qi Tongwei received letters from the Southern Daily, Huacheng Morning Post, and Agricultural Daily. The three newspapers sent him sample copies of "Some Preliminary Results on Improving People's Lives with Vegetables" and a 60 yuan fee for the article.

Qi Tongwei sent the first draft of the expanded version of "The Rise of a Great Power," totaling 5 words, to the Southern Daily and the Huacheng Morning Post.

Then, Qi Tongwei received letters from the Masses Daily, the Freedom Daily, and the Hanjiang Daily.

The People's Daily, the Freedom Daily, and the Han River Daily were preparing to publish "The Rise of a Great Power: England," and sent him sample copies and a fee of 180 yuan.

Looking at the three sample copies, Qi Tongwei was overjoyed.

The People's Daily is one of the most influential newspapers. Publishing an article in it means that the article will be seen by people all over the country.

The Liberty Daily is also the second most influential newspaper after the People's Daily, and its influence is enormous.

As a reform frontier like Lingnan, the influence of the Hanjiang Daily should not be underestimated.

Unfortunately, neither the Handong Daily nor the Handong Evening News has released any information.

It seems that Liang Qunfeng, the secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission, wields considerable influence in Handong.

but it does not matter.

The first article has already been published in the People's Daily and the Liberty Daily. Once the next eight articles are also published in the People's Daily and the Liberty Daily, the Liang family's suppression of him will have little effect.

Qi Tongwei did not show his happiness.

It's possible that someone in Gushanling Township, knowing why he was assigned here, might try to curry favor with the Liang family and keep an eye on him all the time.

This was intended to make Liang Lu realize something was wrong early on, thereby increasing the pressure on her and hindering her from becoming a full-fledged section chief.

Qi Tongwei wanted to secretly resist, but he appeared unable to resist and was about to give in.

This will make Liang Lu feel happy and less concerned about herself.

"Teacher Lin, this is Qi Tongwei. Thank you for sending me so many rapeseed seeds last time. It helped our village a lot!"

Here's the thing: our township is planning to buy another batch of rapeseed, ten times the amount of the last batch.

"Please check if you have any here?"

Qi Tongwei contacted Lin Ziyun, a teacher at the College of Agriculture of Handong University, who was the one he had bought rapeseed from last time.

"Oh, it's Qi Tongwei. Let me take a look first, and then I'll let you know."

Lin Ziyun did not immediately agree.

Qi Tongwei bought rapeseed from him last year, and he gave him twice the amount.

The main reason was that Qi Tongwei didn't buy a large quantity, and it was also to help the people of Gushanling Township.

But this time Qi Tongwei bought ten times the amount of rapeseed as last year, so he needed to check if the agricultural college had that much rapeseed.

After all, the College of Agriculture at Handong University doesn't specialize in growing vegetables and selling seeds.

The research focuses on which vegetables taste better, are easier to prevent pests and diseases, are easier to grow, and have a higher yield.

"Okay, Teacher Lin."

Qi Tongwei didn't dare to urge him. Teacher Lin had given him so many rapeseed seeds last time, which allowed him to double the scale of his planting and create a highlight.

This earned him recognition as an outstanding individual at both the county and township levels.

If we upset Teacher Lin, it will be troublesome if we can't buy enough rapeseed.

"Qi Tongwei, I have the amount of rapeseed you requested, but I can't send you any extra."

As you know, our agricultural college isn't specifically dedicated to rapeseed production.

After a while, Lin Ziyun said.

"Thank you, Teacher Lin. I understand. As long as our township needs enough, that's fine. I'll come to Jingzhou to see you in a few days!"

Qi Tongwei quickly said that as long as there were enough rapeseed seeds, he wouldn't need to buy them from others.

Moreover, even if there are no extra rapeseed seeds given as a gift, Teacher Lin will give him a discount.

"By the way, Teacher Lin, our township is planning to invite teachers from the Agricultural College to guide our villagers in growing vegetables."

Please tell the hospital!

Qi Tongwei said that this matter needs to be studied by the leaders of the College of Agriculture.

If this deal goes through, it will mean that the initial cooperation between Gushanling Township and the College of Agriculture of Handong University has been achieved.

"Okay, I'll talk to the dean in a bit! When you get to Jingzhou, come directly to the College of Agriculture at Handong University to find me!"

Lin Ziyun said that the rapeseed she gave away last time was not in vain, as Qi Tongwei knew how to repay kindness.

Although the College of Agriculture at Handong University has an obligation to help people in underdeveloped areas, it cannot benefit from this without cooperating with local governments.

The matter Qi Tongwei was referring to was the cooperation between Gushanling Township and the College of Agriculture of Handong University.

The two sides have cooperated, and the College of Agriculture and Handong University will also benefit from some things.
