Chapter 814

Su Xinghui followed Liu Tiegang and Liu Yongjun directly into the field. Seeing them coming, Liu Brother Brother Dongtian called out happily, "Town Mayor Su, you are here!"

Su Xinghui waved to him and walked to his side, saying, "Uncle Liu, how many mu of vegetables did your family plant this year?"

Liu Brother Brother Dongtian said, "My family planted three mu of Chinese cabbage, four mu of cabbage, and more than two mu of greenhouse vegetables."

Su Xinghui glanced at the vegetable seedlings in the field and nodded, "It looks like the growth is good!"

Liu Brother Brother Dongtian nodded, "The weather has been good during this period, the wind and rain have been smooth, and we have used drip irrigation equipment, which can evenly water and fertilize. Those agricultural experts often come to guide us, so the growth is so good."

Liu Tiegang said, "Scientific farming is good. It looks like this vegetable can have a bumper harvest again this year."

Su Xinghui said, "Uncle Liu, is there any problem with greenhouse technology?"

Liu Brother Brother Dongtian said, "All the villagers in our village have listened to the lectures by the experts from the Agricultural University. When building the greenhouse, the experts and the agricultural technicians in the town also came to guide us. The experts said that if the greenhouse is not covered well, it may burn or freeze the seedlings. How dare we neglect it?"

Liu Tiegang said, "Yes, this mu of greenhouse investment costs several hundred yuan. Who dares to neglect it? If the seedlings are burned or frozen, this season will be in vain."

Su Xinghui looked at the surrounding fields. Almost every field had villagers working. He asked, "Director Liu, what is the vegetable transplanting area in your village now?"

Liu Tiegang said, "It has reached more than 2,000 mu, mainly early-maturing varieties, and late-maturing varieties have to wait for a while."

Su Xinghui was quite satisfied with such progress. It was only early October, and there was already such progress. The progress was fast this year, mainly because more agricultural machinery was used. The role of agricultural machinery in agricultural production was really obvious.

Su Xinghui spent the whole morning in Dongtang Village, mainly looking at the vegetable transplanting situation, and would occasionally ask the villagers about the situation. The situation here made him feel very satisfied. Dongtang Village was one of the villages with the best progress in vegetable planting in the town.

After seeing Dongtang Village, Su Xinghui said to Liu Tiegang, "Old Liu, the work in your village is progressing well. I hope you can keep it up. Planting vegetables is of great significance. It is not only related to the county's construction of a provincial vegetable industry base, but also related to the increase in income for every household!"

Liu Tiegang nodded and said, "Town Mayor, you don't need to say it. Now the common people in the village are very motivated. The rice harvest this year has made everyone taste the sweetness. They don't know how much they believe in the words of the town and agricultural experts, so of course they are motivated."

Su Xinghui nodded and smiled with relief.

In the following days, Su Xinghui turned around in various villages to check the progress of vegetable planting work in each village, and would occasionally go to the construction site of the vegetable wholesale market to see. The vegetable wholesale market project was managed by Xu Xiaoguang here. Xu Xiaoguang had also managed several projects in the past two years, and he was also familiar with project management. Su Xinghui was very relieved that he managed this project here.

On this day, Su Xinghui returned from the village, and Liu Yongjun handed him a registered letter. Su Xinghui opened it and saw that it was a letter from the Provincial Artists Association. His application to join the Provincial Artists Association had been passed. The letter contained the membership card of the Provincial Artists Association.

Looking at this membership card, Su Xinghui was still very excited. In his previous life, he had never obtained this certificate. In his previous life, his level might have been enough to become a member of the Artists Association, but after all, painting was just his hobby, and he didn't focus on developing in this direction, and there was no relevant way.

Now with this membership card, Su Xinghui officially became a member of the Provincial Artists Association. Having this membership title has many benefits. He entered this circle, and he would get news of any activities of people in the circle in the future.

And with this Artists Association member, the market prospects and prices of his works would be greatly increased. In China, sometimes this identity is more important than the level.

After receiving this Artists Association membership card, Su Xinghui called Qu Ziqing and expressed his gratitude to him. The person he should thank most for this matter was indeed Qu Ziqing. It was precisely because Qu Ziqing had been keeping this matter in his heart all along that he could get this certificate so quickly.

Qu Ziqing was very happy to hear that he had received the membership card. He asked Su Xinghui to continue to work hard, continue to improve his level, and strive to join the China Artists Association as soon as possible.

Qu Ziqing told Su Xinghui the conditions for joining the China Artists Association. To join the China Artists Association, one needs to have works created individually selected for national painting exhibitions that meet the specified conditions three times, or win a gold medal in the National Art Exhibition once.

The National Art Exhibition is China's highest-standard and largest-scale national-level art exhibition, held every five years. Qu Ziqing said that the next National Art Exhibition will be held in 1999. He hopes that Su Xinghui can work hard in these five years and strive to join the China Artists Association through these two conditions.

If he can join the China Artists Association, that would be amazing. There are only a few thousand members in the whole country. Those who can join the China Artists Association basically belong to famous painters, and their works are worth a hundred times more.

Of course, to join the China Artists Association, it is impossible without a certain identity or connections in this circle. It is basically impossible to participate in national exhibitions. Now Su Xinghui has the identity of a member of the Hudong Provincial Artists Association, which can be considered to have a certain identity. Coupled with his certain connections, he can possibly let his works participate in national exhibitions.

After listening to Qu Ziqing's introduction, Su Xinghui thanked him repeatedly. He said he would invite Qu Ziqing to dinner next time he went to Jiangcheng. Qu Ziqing said that the 16th of this month is Professor Qin's birthday, so don't forget to participate. At that time, he wants to have a good drink with Su Xinghui.

Su Xinghui naturally would not forget Professor Qin's birthday, and he had already prepared the birthday gift for Professor Qin.

During this period, the work in the town was carried out vigorously, and most of the cadres in the town were working very hard. However, some people were full of fire, and Deputy Town Mayor Tong Yuejin was one of them.

Tong Yuejin was the deputy director of the Pengjiawan Town Vegetable Subsidy Fund Management Office. He was very excited when he became the deputy director, but now with the deepening of vegetable planting work, the vegetable subsidy fund is being implemented, but Tong Yuejin found that he seemed to be sidelined.

The list of vegetable subsidy funds reported by each village was verified by Liu Yongjun and other staff members. After they verified it, they reported it directly to Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui was the director of the Vegetable Subsidy Fund Management Office. Su Xinghui trusted Liu Yongjun very much. He verified the situation, and Su Xinghui generally signed it directly. Of course, he would also spot-check the situation when he went down to the village.

Tong Yuejin was now unable to reach the sky and unable to reach the ground. The matter of verifying the situation had nothing to do with him, and he had no signing power. Isn't this deputy director a decoration?

Tong Yuejin was very unhappy. After Su Xinghui came, he had no oil and water, no extra money for these months, and his stomach had lost a circle. He originally thought that being this deputy director would have some benefits, even if he didn't receive any gifts, he could eat some treats. Who knew that this office directly pushed him, the deputy director, aside.

On this day, several relatives of Tong Yuejin came to his home to find him. They also planted vegetables in their homes. They also wanted to report a few more mu of vegetable area and receive more subsidies. Their village was afraid of offending Tong Yuejin, so they reported it for them. However, when Liu Yongjun verified it, he deducted the reported area.
