Chapter 1312 Surviving in the last days of natural disasters (39)

After this, Xu Dong and Xu Xi had an extra happy place to go after school.

They are lively by nature and like to play with their peers.

In the past, there was no way. Children of the same age did not know many children, and some parents did not like their children to be close to children in orphanages, as if they might catch some infectious disease.

In fact, their four children had to go to work in the field in the morning, so they took baths every day and were very clean.

But those parents dont think so. They think that seven or eight-year-old orphans who grew up in orphanages must not be so particular, so they restrain their children and dont let them play together.

If you dont want to play, dont play!

Xu Yin and Ning Jin dont matter.

Xu Dong and Xu Xi may have been disappointed before, but now that they are reunited with Nan Bei Guanghui and the others, dont be too happy. As long as its not their turn to clean up or do housework, they will run to Datongpu as soon as school is over.

Xu Yin took advantage of their absence and Xiao Jin was busy in the kitchen again. She would secretly add a few handfuls of rice to the rice bag, a few potatoes and dried corn ears to the pile of coarse grains.

There is no way to add more eggs, Xu Xi is remembering to count them.

In a blink of an eye, another month has passed.

After the opening of the central city, there are obviously more smiles on peoples faces than before.

Even if you cant afford ice packs for the time being, at least there is hope.

After living in an underground city for a long time, even if it has a lighting system, fresh air system, and constant temperature system, the comfort level is no less than the living conditions of most people before, but no matter how comfortable it is, it is still underground.

Everyone is eager for sunshine, just like a traveler longing for rain after a long drought.

So, the labor trading hall has been very busy recently. Who doesnt want to work more jobs, earn more contribution points, and save enough 5,000 to exchange for ice packs?

The Ministry of Agriculture began to research drought-resistant and high-temperature crops, and was preparing to open a tropical crop experimental field on the ground. To this end, it began to recruit vegetable farmers who were willing to work in the experimental field.

The vegetable farmers in the underground planting area have already adapted to the labor intensity of the negative two floors. What's more, there are heaters here when it is extremely cold and air-conditioners during hot weather. They are suitable for both heating and cooling. They are used to a comfortable working environment. How can they be willing to go to the high temperature of 50 or 60 degrees? Working in an environment? So what if there is an ice pack? The general environment is always not as comfortable as the underground planting area.

Except Xu Yin.

After hearing the news, she approached Professor Liu and took the initiative to apply to work on the ground.

Professor Liu opened his mouth and almost blurted out asking her if she had a fever.

"Child, the current temperature on the ground is not suitable for human beings to live for a long time. We have no choice but to organize vegetable farmers to go up to cultivate the land. You have also seen the situation underground. It is difficult to expand the planting area, but the output of grain and vegetables is really limited, and there is no way to feed the citizens. . If hot weather will exist for a long time, we can only try our best to adapt and find ways to grow crops suitable for this temperature. But you are still young. Even if no one signs up, and the base forces people to work, it will not be your turn. You

After a pause, Professor Liu seemed to have thought of something: "Don't you have enough to eat? Yes, you are so strong, you must eat more. In this way, I am old and can't eat so much. Every month I personally allocate ten Ill give you a kilogram of rations, and Ill ask Xiao Hu to deliver this months share to you soon.

Xu Yin couldn't laugh or cry: "Grandpa Liu, I don't have enough to eat. I just want to work on the ground. I'm not afraid of the heat, and I have saved enough contribution points to buy an ice pack. Carrying an ice pack won't make me hot."

Professor Liu didnt believe her words. He had seen people come to him who were unwilling to change positions, but he had never seen anyone take the initiative to apply to work on the ground.

You must know that the land on the ground, even if it was once super fertile farmland, was first frozen into icy soil by two years of extreme cold, then soaked in melted snow water for half a year, and now it is scorched into drought by the scorching sun. Even if it rains, the falling The rain is also hot.

It can be said that the fertile fields in recent years have been undergoing the test of the devil of nature every day. If it were a human being, it would have been tortured to death. Would it still have the energy to grow crops?

Therefore, the vegetable farmers who are sent to the ground face not only the difficulty of planting in hot weather, but also observation while cultivating and finding ways to convert dry land into good land suitable for farming. The time will not be short.

Xu Yin was mentally prepared for this: "Don't worry, Professor! I won't give in midway! I will stick to it until the end! I can apply for self-study at the school and just come back and take the exam every semester!" ""

Professor Liu felt that he had been lonely for a long time.

It would have been better before, her application could have been rejected with just "You are still a minor and do not meet the age limit".

But now there is an urgent need for talents from all walks of life, and minors with special talents are allowed to work.

Learning that Xu Yin wanted to work on the ground, Ning Jin ran to Professor Liu to sign up to go to the ground without saying a word.

Xu Dong and Xu Xi were in trouble.

With their learning abilities, I'm afraid they won't be able to pass the final academic test if they study by themselves. If they fail, they will have to go back and re-study. How embarrassing!

Plus, you cant play with other friends when you go to work on the ground.

Ouch, so confused!

The two children were worried for a while, but finally they could not resist the temptation to see Lao Bai and the others, so they also went to see Professor Liu to sign up.

Professor Liu:

Professor Hong couldn't hide his envy: "Old Liu, are you showing off your stern face just for me? I don't have anyone who has signed up, and you have already completed the four targets. Xu Yin has four children, I think it's really Angels are reincarnated. Are you dissatisfied with them with your stinky face? Then leave it to me!"

what a beautiful thought!

"snort!"

The ground farming team was assembled a week later. Under the leadership of Professor Liu, they set out for the ground carrying luggage and ice packs.

The central city was originally located on the mountain with the highest altitude. The entrance and exit were originally planned to be at the top of the mountain. Later, considering the travel problems after the floods receded, they were chosen to be at the foot of the mountain with a gentle slope.

But it is quite far away from the farmland. If you go there and back on the same day, you will basically spend time on the road. Moreover, the number of high-temperature-resistant vehicles is limited, and other tasks must be arranged. Therefore, the farming team was arranged to camp at the old base.

The old base is great and close to the welfare home!

From the moment the four children got into the car, they couldnt help exchanging glances and snickering. Their eyes were full of uncontrollable excitement and joy.

You can see Lao Bai and the others soon!

The camp is set up at the old base, and it is of course best to choose the experimental field nearby.

It just so happens that there is a piece of land to the east of the orphanage. It used to be agricultural land a long time ago, but it was later converted into construction land. Not long before the extreme cold came, it was bought by a real estate company and was going to build a villa area. Now of course it has been classified as state-owned and restored to agricultural use. The ground is gone.

The experimental field is set here, and it is simply too friendly to Xu Yin and the other four.

However, the temperature was really too high. Even if he was carrying an ice pack, he was still sweating. Professor Liu called everyone for a meeting and decided to start work at night. Now he can move around freely and adapt to the working environment that is completely different from the underground city. .

The four children told Professor Liu and went back to the orphanage together.
