After the old dean came back, he sat in the office.
From time to time, I picked up the phone and called Northwest, wanting to know the situation.
But no one answered every time he called, which kept him in a state of nervousness and worry and unable to sleep for a long time.
Seeing that the sky was getting slightly brighter, he made the call again.
Just when he thought no one answered this time, the call was suddenly transferred, but the person who spoke was not Gao Yufeng, but a student from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
The old dean quickly identified himself and then asked about the situation over there.
But after I finished speaking, intermittent crying came from the other side.
"Dean, Director Gao is hospitalized."
"What? What's going on?"
The old dean was startled and asked quickly.
The female student who was speaking suddenly burst into tears, and then stumbled to tell the story.
"At that time, Director Gao took us out and spread it with straw..."
"Then the hail stopped for a while, and everyone was busy with cattails. Many people came to help, and Director Gao went to direct..."
"But who would have thought that hail fell again. Director Gao was hit on the brow and had many bruises on his body. We had to send him to the clinic..."
"This time, many of our people were injured this time. The director, teachers, and classmates were all injured..."
"Dean, when will you come? There are only three of us girls now. Dean, we are afraid..."
The girl started crying, and the dean was heartbroken after hearing this.
But I couldn't even say words of comfort.
After a long time, the girl calmed down and said, "Dean, director, the director told me."
"He said that this loss was not half, at most, only one-third. We tried our best."
Woo woo
When the girl talked about her sadness, she started crying again.
"well..."
"Just wait, Dean, I will pick you up and bring you back."
"You take care of yourselves and take care of everyone."
The old dean couldn't bear it anymore and shed two lines of muddy tears along with his words.
Ring ring ring
Mr. Tao, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by the guard, saying that there was a call from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
Tao Lao immediately got up and went to the study.
Yesterday's busy work was also a big burden for him, and his body was a little overwhelmed.
When I got home, I didn't eat much and then went back to the house to sleep.
Now that I was woken up so early, my whole head felt dizzy and uncomfortable.
However, he also knew that the affairs of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences were very important, so he did not care about complaining and answered the phone.
Then, I heard the voice of the old dean inside, describing the situation in the northwest.
Mr. Tao immediately lost his sleepiness.
Especially when I heard that many people were injured as a result, my heart was filled with haze.
"Comrades, you are all well done!"
Mr. Tao was silent.
"By the way, they also said..."
Mr. Tao felt relieved instantly. After listening, he hung up the phone and lay on the bed. He felt relaxed and wanted to pick up the phone.
But when he saw the clock on the wall and thought about today's exertion, even though he was still in good health, he felt it was too much.
At this time, it’s better not to disturb your rest.
However, he still couldn't control his inner excitement. He needed to find someone to express his feelings at this moment, and he needed to find someone to share his joy.
Thinking of this, Mr. Tao took a deep breath, walked out of the house, looked at the bright sky above his head, then walked downstairs and came to the house downstairs.
"Lao Gu, get up."
As before, the door was open. Mr. Tao walked in, turned on the light and shouted, as if he was very familiar with the people in the room.
At this time, in the living room, the bald old man who was swinging on the recliner heard the sound and slowly opened his eyes, and then saw Mr. Tao walking in.
So I reached out and took the alarm clock next to me, looked at it, and then continued to lie down as if I didn't hear it.
"Lao Gu, don't pretend to be asleep. Get up and ask for a drink with you."
Mr. Tao didn't know whether he was happy or sad. Anyway, it was quite complicated, so he just wanted to find someone to talk to and have a drink.
I can catch up on some sleep when I go back later.
As for Lao Gu, he sleeps in the library during the day anyway, so it doesn't matter if he misses a little sleep.
"No time, what time is it?"
The old man on the recliner did not open his eyes and continued to lie down, his voice was very helpless.
It was bad luck to meet such an unreliable neighbor.
Mr. Tao walked in, looked at the stacks of books placed on the side of the living room, and couldn't help but sigh, "You brought books home again."
"I've told you many times, why can't I be more careful?"
As Mr. Tao spoke, he came to the side and took out an iron box from under the desk, then placed it on the table. After opening it hard, there were two bottles of Maotai inside.
There are two small wine glasses on the side.
"Look, the wine that the boss brought you has not been drunk for several years."
Mr. Tao said as he came to the side and sat down, took out a bottle of wine, opened it and poured it on.
"You are a robber. You came into my house without knocking or saying anything. You rummaged through the cabinets and even robbed me of my wine. In the end, you were able to criticize me. How can there be such a thing in this world?"
Lao Gu finally couldn't lie down anymore. He knew that this person was coming and he didn't want to continue sleeping.
After saying that, he stood up and walked aside, then took out a greased paper bag from the kitchen and placed it on the table.
"If it were anyone else, I would have kicked you out a long time ago."
When Mr. Tao saw it, he immediately smiled and opened it to reveal the fried peanuts inside, "I knew you had them."
Lao Gu rolled his eyes.
"Come to think of it, nothing bad will happen this time!"
"Every time you come here, you dump negative influences on me, and I will be your mental trash can."
Tao Lao pinched a peanut and put it into his mouth, "What you are saying is a spiritual trash can. How unpleasant it sounds."
"This is called asking for the opinions of revolutionary comrades to better brainstorm ideas."
"Pull you down."
Lao Gu interrupted directly, then glanced and said, "Hurry up, I have to go to the library."
Tao Lao frowned after hearing this, "Lao Gu, let me tell you, don't worry about it when you are retired. Leave the library work to other comrades. It doesn't matter if you stay here or go to a few boys, but you can't
Enjoy your happiness."
"And, these, these, these books, don't take them back..."
"You don't know what's going on outside, so you can't get yourself into trouble for these books..."
Mr. Tao pointed to a circle of books around him and spoke seriously.
In his opinion, these books are important, but his comrades are more important than the past.
But Lao Gu picked up his wine glass and took a sip, "Books? What's wrong with these books?"
"These are all left by our ancestors. They have been preserved after so many years and many wars. But now, not only do they not protect these treasures properly, they also..."
Lao Gu was very angry when he talked about this, "If I don't bring it back, will I just watch it be burned down?"
"Every word or sentence here is the thought left by the sages. I dare not say that it is the essence, but even the dross can also serve as a warning. Once it is burned by fire, apart from seeing sparks, what else will be left...
."
"Shu didn't do anything bad, he is innocent."
Lao Gu looked excited when he talked about the book. Before Tao Lao could speak, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "Also, you are the leader. To be fair, the man named Kong has been dead for more than two thousand years.
Well, I can’t blame him for this.”
"You must blame those unscrupulous descendants who, under the name of Lao Kong, are only interested in profit, have bad intentions, have evil intentions, and have bad intentions."
"Old Tao, tell me, why do these books hinder them?"
"Those who keep shouting nonsense, have they really read these books? Do they know the meaning of the books? Have they ever thought about it? No, they don't know these books exist at all. They just do it to vent, to..."
"Lao Gu, calm down, calm down, can we not talk about this today?"
Mr. Tao suddenly realized that he had nothing to do with him, why was he talking about this?
Even if we discuss this topic for three days and three nights, we may not be able to finish it.
Now I'm fine, I've become the target of my complaints.
"I said, I'll leave after I finish speaking."
Mr. Tao picked up the wine bottle and filled it up for the other party, "Where are we in the northwest today..."
"I just received a call not long ago. Our comrades are all good."
After Mr. Tao finished explaining the situation, both of them were silent.
They are used to life and death and sacrifice, but they are unable to remain calm in the face of sacrifice.
"Come on, do it."
Bang
The wine glasses collided and poured down their throats, leaving the two of them speechless.
After a long time, Lao Gu sighed, "They are all good comrades, such good comrades!"
...
After Yang Xiaotao got up, he had a simple breakfast and then went to the greenhouse to continue working.
Ran Qiuye also went to help, while Lou Xiaoe took a car back to Sijiucheng with dark circles under her eyes.
There must be someone in the machinery factory to help process documents. Even if Yang Xiaotao only signs, he still needs to know the reason for the signature.
It is Lou Xiao'e's job to sort out the information.
Arriving at the greenhouse, everyone was busy again.
It wasn't until mid-afternoon that Yang Xiaotao saw the old dean arriving.
Then I also learned the news about the northwest.
In my heart, I admire Gao Yufeng and the others for being able to rush out in the hail. What is the difference between this and a hail of bullets?
Being able to protect two-thirds of the medicinal herbs is already commendable.
After the old dean finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao did not stop the work in the greenhouse.
Who knows if something will happen in the future? Instead of hail, there will be dust, drought, and insect plagues...
So Yang Xiaotao discussed with the old dean how the greenhouse planting should be done.
When the time comes, the Artemisia japonica planted will be better than too little, even if it is too much.
After the old dean finished speaking, he left in the car.
He wants to fulfill his promise and take people home.
But Yang Xiaotao stayed.
This is also convenient for Xiaowei to operate.
With the personnel in the nearby villages in place and all kinds of materials in place, the planting speed of the greenhouse is getting faster and faster, and Xiaowei and the clone are getting busier and busier.
Fortunately, the sun's energy is sufficient now, and it can absorb moonlight at night, so Xiaowei can bear it.
Talking about the past again.
Yang Xiaotao and Ran Qiuye followed everyone back home.
It’s another night of returning home from the hoe with the moon in mind.
The difference is that this time the two did not continue to discuss life, but went to sleep on the kang early.
Xiaowei appeared on the window sill again. Xiaowei's reminder appeared in Yang Xiaotao's mind. He didn't answer. He just changed his position and held Ran Qiuye in his arms, and then waited for time to pass.
As they walked minute by minute, Xiaowei on the window sill couldn't wait any longer.
But Yang Xiaotao was immersed in the system panel.
'The credits I earned this year are a bit few.'
Yang Xiaotao thought of the credits from last year, including several machine tools, engines, armored vehicles, etc., but he was asked to fill them up.
But now, it's already August, not many things have been accomplished, there are fewer credits earned, and it's harder to upgrade.
This is not to say that there are few channels for earning credits, in fact there are many.
Reading is one, this is the foundation. When I received the system, the first credits I earned were from books.
Although it is becoming increasingly difficult to improve one's academic level these days, and the credits given are less.
But reading the book itself is a kind of accumulation of knowledge and the growth of personal ability.
Secondly, there is one design drawing, and this is the big head right now.
Every time the design is good and divided equally, it can bring in a lot of income.
The last one is skills, just like when you learn calligraphy, language, thrusting and other skills, you will also be rewarded with credits.
This is the least explored area right now.
Just when Yang Xiaotao was thinking about what to do next to earn credits, the exchange column at the bottom of the system suddenly changed.
And Yang Xiaotao also realized that the time had arrived on August 1st.
"Huh? Xiaowei, there are really good things."
Yang Xiaotao looked at other places on the panel, but there was no change.
The only thing that has changed is that after the items in the exchange column are refreshed, a book-like icon appears.
