Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 172 The Gap
On the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, Sheng Xiping and Zhou Qinglan got engaged.

The Sheng family prepared a generous engagement gift, and the Zhou family also returned a lot of gifts.

Both parties respected each other, and settled the marriage of the two young people in a friendly manner.

Afterwards, Wang Chunxiu asked Zhou Mingyuan and Li Yuqin to stay in the house to talk and chat with the Sheng family couple, while she led her daughter to the kitchen to cook.

For this engagement banquet, Wang Chunxiu also spent a lot of thought.

At any rate, the Chinese New Year is approaching, and the quotas for all kinds of non-staple food in stores have been appropriately relaxed, and hospitals and machine repair shops have also given out Chinese New Year benefits.

In addition to the things Zhou Qinglan brought back, Wang Chunxiu prepared eight dishes and one soup for him.

There is a saying in this year, "Four dishes and one soup, cadres go to the countryside."

The standard for cadres going to the countryside is only four dishes and one soup, but the eight dishes and one soup are quite high standards.

Wang Chunxiu's cooking is really average. Fortunately, many dishes are prepared in advance. At this moment, they only need to stir-fry, or add some mushroom vermicelli and stew for a while.

Zhou Qinglan's cooking skills are better than Wang Chunxiu's.

In the end, Zhou Qinglan became the head chef, with Wang Chunxiu as his assistant.

In the kitchen of the outhouse, the two mothers were busy frying and cooking.

In the east room, Zhou Mingyuan chatted with Sheng Liancheng's family and Li Yuqin.

As we were talking, we talked about Zhou Mingyuan's overseas inspection.

"Family, what are you doing when you go abroad to investigate?

Is the logging done by foreign forestry workers the same as ours?

I always hear people say that any developed country abroad is advanced in everything. What kind of advanced method is it? Can you tell me about it? "

As a veteran forestry worker, Sheng Liancheng has witnessed the arduous journey of the Songjianghe Forestry Bureau from scratch.

Looking back on the sufferings and sufferings of these forestry workers, Sheng Liancheng couldn't help but wonder, how did they work abroad?
Hearing Sheng Liancheng's question, Zhou Mingyuan couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother, if we don't go out to see other people, we really don't know how far behind we are."

"My brother has been in the forestry system for so many years, you should know that there are many types of logging in our forest area.

Clear cutting, main cutting, selective cutting, thinning, limited cutting and forbidden cutting.

But now, most of us are still clearcutting.

Whichever cutting area is decided, regardless of the tree species or size, it is like pushing the hair, and all are felled bare. "

"One of the reasons for this is that we urgently need a lot of wood for construction.

The other is that our technical equipment, capital, and harvesting techniques are all very different from others. "Zhou Mingyuan said while shaking his head.

"I used to think that the gap between us and others is not small, but I only found out when I went out this time, it is not only not small, but the gap is too big.

In a country with well-developed forestry, there are three people in a group, accompanied by a helicopter.

According to the drawing marks, drive up to the sky and go straight to the tree you want to cut.

Put the two workers on the treetop with a hanging basket, put down the wire rope to hang the trunk tightly.

Then put the two people on the ground, and use the advanced screw fork machine to move the big tree branches from the root to the top of the tree, and rotate them a few times to become a smooth single pole.

Two operators finally cut down the big tree along the ground, and the plane tightened the steel rope, hoisted the wood and went straight to the wood storage yard. "

Zhou Mingyuan couldn't help feeling sad when he recalled what they saw during their investigation.

"We have a work team of about [-] people, who are exhausted every day, dirty and miserable.

The annual production of [-] to [-] cubic meters of timber can only be achieved with mechanization.

Purely manual work like Xiping's can cut down [-] cubic meters in one winter, which is a very high output.

How much is the average output per person? "

"Those foreign forestry workers, a three-person operation team, have an annual output of more than 5000 cubic meters, and one person can complete more than [-] to [-] cubic meters.

This is the gap, the huge gap. "

The more Zhou Mingyuan talked, the more emotional he became, and he felt a sense of powerlessness towards reality.

With such a big gap, how long will it take to catch up?When their technology catches up, how many trees can be left for future generations?
Sheng Liancheng was dumbfounded, he didn't even dare to think about what Zhou Mingyuan said.

In a group of three, the annual output can reach [-] cubic meters, with an average output of [-] to [-] cubic meters per person.

How much labor will be saved?How much do workers earn a year?

"Brother, when do you think we can have this kind of technology? We are both at this age, can we wait for it?"

Sheng Liancheng looked at Zhou Mingyuan expectantly.

As a veteran forestry worker, he really wanted to see that one day in the future, their Forestry Bureau could also use this method.

Sheng Xiping who was at the side couldn't help sighing when he heard this.

Not to mention Sheng Liancheng, even Sheng Xiping couldn't wait for such a technology.

What they waited for was the lack of forestry resources and the conversion and disintegration of the Forestry Bureau.

"Dad, don't think about these things. All we can do is to obey the orders of our superiors, and we can do whatever the superiors tell us to do."

Sheng Xiping spoke in time, preventing Sheng Liancheng and Zhou Mingyuan from continuing their discussion.

This is simply an impossible wish, and there is no point in discussing it any further.

Furthermore, in the current environment, many things cannot be said casually.

Fortunately, this is at Zhou's house, and there are no outsiders today.

Otherwise, if it gets out and is misinterpreted, it will be of no benefit to Zhou Mingyuan or Sheng Liancheng.

Being reminded by Sheng Xiping, Zhou Mingyuan and Sheng Liancheng both sighed.

"Yes, let's not mention these, this is not something we can worry about.

In-laws, let's discuss, when will the two children get married? "Sheng Liancheng immediately changed the subject.

"Xiping's work team almost completed the logging task years ago.

After the next year, it will be transported down the mountain, returned to Leng, and then cleaned up. It is estimated that it will take a month.

I thought, why not just choose a similar date in late March and early April, and hold the wedding of the two children? "

Both Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen have been thinking about this matter for a long time.

Qianchuan Forest Farm is close to the main peak of Changbai Mountain, and the solar terms are late.

At the end of March and the beginning of April, the temperature is slightly higher during the day and freezing at night, so it is not too cold or hot.

Meat can be stored in the shade, and it is not too cold to be unbearable during the day, which is a good time for banquets.

Coincidentally, at that time, the winter harvesting and transportation were basically over, the afforestation had not yet started, and the agricultural team had not yet planted the land.

It belongs to the blank period, so you can prepare for the wedding well.

Zhou Mingyuan is also a member of the forestry system, can he not think of this?
"What my in-laws think is similar to what I think, and I also think this is a good time.

That's it, let's prepare according to this time period first, look back at the progress of Xiping and his team after the next year, and then set a specific date. "

Sheng Liancheng and Zhou Mingyuan agreed, and the two fathers decided on it.

At the end of March and the beginning of April next year, find a suitable time to hold a wedding for Sheng Xiping and Zhou Qinglan.
