Chapter 2195

Su Xinghui said, "You explained it very well. Which school did you graduate from? How many years have you been graduated?"

Lu Xianhe said, "I graduated from Chengshui Agricultural School and have been graduated for four years. County Magistrate, I didn't explain it well."

Su Xinghui said, "No, no, no, don't be humble. You explained it really well. I have heard agricultural experts talk about these fertilization techniques before, and you explained it just like them. If the late rice in Gangdong Village has a bumper harvest this year, you will be credited with a major contribution."

The farmers also started talking all at once: "That's right, Technician Lu explained it quite well. The growth of the seedlings in our family is quite good; this is all the credit of Technician Lu!"

"Technician Lu not only explains it well, but he is also willing to go into the fields himself to demonstrate for us. He is very dedicated."

"If the late rice has a bumper harvest, our whole village will have to thank Technician Lu!"

Lu Xianhe hurriedly said, "Everyone is overpraising me. I'm not as good as you say."

Su Xinghui laughed out loud: "Little Lu, others are all scrambling for credit, but you, you are pushing the credit away. There really aren't many people like you."

Lu Xianhe touched his head embarrassedly, not knowing what to say.

Su Xinghui said to the farmers, "Everyone, work hard. Follow Technician Lu's words, and this year's late rice will definitely have a bumper harvest. When that time comes, everyone will be able to live a good life!"

An old farmer said, "County Magistrate Su, we want to thank you! With such a big disaster this year, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid we would all have to go out and flee from famine now. How could there be any good days?"

Others also said, "That's right, County Magistrate Su. If you hadn't repaired the embankment last year, I'm afraid our embankment here would have collapsed this year. Who knows if we could still be alive? Let alone talk about good days."

"You exempted us from the imperial grain, and all the people in our county have to thank you!"

"This time you gave us this free chemical fertilizer again. If we can really have a bumper harvest, then it's all thanks to your blessing, County Magistrate Su!"

"We will definitely work hard, County Magistrate Su, please rest assured!"

Looking at the hopeful eyes of these farmers, Su Xinghui felt that everything he had done was worth it. He nodded and said, "Alright, with this kind of spirit, you will definitely be able to live a good life."

After inspecting the rice transplanting situation in various villages, Su Xinghui was quite satisfied. The progress of transplanting was quite fast, and it would not miss the farming season. Coupled with this batch of chemical fertilizer this year, the harvest of late rice this year was promising.

Su Xinghui still remembered some details of this great flood in his previous life. There was no way around it; the memory this great flood brought to people was truly too deep. In his previous life, after August, there were no more heavy rains in the middle reaches of the Changjiang River that would not stop once they started. The rainfall could be considered relatively balanced, which was beneficial to the growth of rice.

Therefore, Su Xinghui had great confidence in the harvest of late rice this year.

The situation in agriculture was good, and other work in Chongjin County was also thriving and flourishing. After the heavy rain passed, the factory buildings in the Economic Development Zone started operating again, and it was people resting but machines not resting every day, working overnight. Anyway, there were no residents here now, so there was no problem of disturbing the people.

The construction of the new district in Chongjin County was also progressing at a fast speed. This place used to be a wilderness, and there were no residents, so there was no problem of disturbing the people. Now it could also be worked day and night to win back the time lost in the previous period.

Especially the commercial housing and affordable housing that Su Xinghui was most concerned about, the construction progress was very fast. By the end of the flood season this year, they could be completed one after another. When the time came, the state would start returning farmland to the lake, and the relocated people could be moved into these houses.

Returning farmland to the lake could be considered the work Su Xinghui was most concerned about at present. He had to do this well; otherwise, in the future, as long as there was heavy rain, those places reclaimed from the lake would suffer disaster. Moreover, the water level of the Changjiang River would remain high once it reached the flood season, and the money and energy spent in the future would be enormous.

Take this year, for example, how much loss did this great flood cause to the whole country? If returning farmland to the lake had been realized earlier, this loss would certainly not have been so great.

Time passed day by day. In the blink of an eye, July passed, and August arrived. Although the flood water level had remained high these days, the embankments in various places had finally held up and had not breached, which made Su Xinghui breathe a long sigh of relief.

Because he still remembered that the embankment of Shangjun County in his previous life had breached during these few days. At that time, the loss was very heavy, and even many of the People's Liberation Army soldiers who were fighting the flood and rescuing disaster victims had died. In this life, Shangjun County was very calm, and nothing happened, which made Su Xinghui very gratified.

This was also very normal. The embankment of Shangjun County had been repaired once a few years ago. At that time, Zhang Kaishan was still serving as the County Party Committee Secretary, so the quality was quite solid. Although it was not up to the standard of resisting a flood that only happens once in a hundred years, it was still much better than the quality of embankments in other places. Since there were no breaches in other places, there was naturally no reason for the embankment of Shangjun County to breach.

In early August, Vice Premier Xu came to Jiangyou Province for the fourth time to inspect the disaster situation. On the 7th, the fourth flood peak appeared in the upper reaches of the Changjiang River. The water levels of the two lakes continued to rise, and they were completely unable to bear the function of flood diversion and storage, instead making the Changjiang water level rise even higher, repeatedly exceeding the highest water level record for the same period in history.

This was a good interpretation of the evil consequences brought about by reclaiming farmland from the lake. It was believed that this super flood would allow all those in power to reflect well.

It was also on this day, the 7th, that the main embankment of the Changjiang River finally breached for the first time. This breach occurred in Jiangyou Province, right to the east of Chongjin County, at the main embankment of the Jiangkou City urban area.

Su Xinghui naturally knew about this breach in his previous life, but in this life, he had no way to warn about it. He was just a county magistrate of Chongjin County, and he couldn't manage the affairs of Jiangkou City. He couldn't accurately predict this breach either; if he did, he was afraid he would be taken to some research institute to be sliced and studied.

He could only hope that this breach could be avoided in this life, but he didn't expect that this breach still arrived as scheduled. It seemed that the inertia of history was still very great. Although Su Xinghui was reborn, he was only one person, and the places he could influence were still limited. If his rebirth could avoid all disasters, then he would not be a human, but a god.

No, even a god couldn't do that.
