The next day, the sky was just beginning to lighten.
Summer had already sat up in bed, rubbing his still sleepy eyes.
I quickly got dressed and washed up, and after a quick tidy-up, I headed to the cafeteria.
The cafeteria was steaming hot and filled with the aroma of food.
Only a handful of early-rising employees were having lunch.
In the summer, I made a bowl of steaming millet porridge, served with two steamed buns made from mixed flour and a dish of pickled vegetables.
I sat in the corner and ate my breakfast quietly and quickly.
After quickly finishing breakfast, Xia Tian approached Li Zhong.
The two once again devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the research on the semi-light seedling method.
The two sat in the office, sometimes frowning, sometimes whispering to each other.
Sparks of thought collided fiercely in this not-so-spacious office.
At the same time, the atmosphere in the Ministry of Forestry's conference room was unusually oppressive.
Early in the morning, Minister Qin Qiufeng summoned all the comrades in charge of Saihanba Forest Farm affairs to the conference room.
His face was somber, and his eyes conveyed a solemn expression as he sat quietly at the head of the conference table.
The leaders attending the meeting entered the conference room one after another.
Seeing the minister's appearance, everyone felt a chill run down their spines, and a sense of unease arose spontaneously.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with doubt and speculation.
No one knew what had happened, or if they had made a mistake that displeased the minister.
The only sounds in the conference room were soft footsteps and hushed whispers.
Everyone was waiting for the minister to speak and reveal the mysterious answer.
Qin Qiufeng glanced around the conference room, took a deep breath, and slowly began to speak.
“Some of our comrades in the department really should go to the grassroots forest farms and take a good look.”
The moment these words were spoken, the conference room fell into an eerie silence.
The leaders below were all startled.
They all quickly reviewed their recent work in their minds, carefully reflecting on whether there were any mistakes.
Qin Qiufeng stopped beating around the bush and decided to get straight to the point and clarify the issue.
"As everyone knows, the Saihanba Forest Farm, which was just established by the ministry, simply does not have the conditions for large-scale tree planting."
"But some of our comrades actually assigned tasks to the Saihanba Forest Farm."
"It is required that they implement mechanized afforestation in the Saihanba area this year."
"This completely ignores the actual situation in the Saihanba area; it's utterly nonsensical!"
At this point, Qin Qiufeng's voice rose noticeably, and his face was filled with a look of deep sorrow and indignation.
“Last night, Comrade Yu Zhenglai from the forest farm called me.”
"He told me in detail about the actual situation of the forest farm."
"After hearing that, I felt incredibly ashamed!"
"This is a dereliction of duty on our part!"
“We sit in these high-rise offices, and with a simple opening and closing of our mouths, the next order is very easy.”
"But have we really considered how much difficulty our comrades at the grassroots level are facing?"
"We must fully consider the actual situation!"
Qin Qiufeng's words were filled with helplessness and disappointment.
He paused for a moment to compose himself before continuing.
"I don't want to say anything more."
"I only hope that our comrades will be more considerate when assigning tasks to their subordinates in the future."
"We should put more effort into it, conduct more research, and fully consider the actual conditions in different regions."
"Instead of simply making our comrades at the grassroots level complete tasks that are impossible to accomplish."
"This will not only dampen their enthusiasm, but also affect the development of the entire forestry industry!"
After saying that, Qin Qiufeng waved his hand and said in a slightly tired tone.
"Alright, meeting adjourned!"
The leaders present had different expressions after hearing these words.
Some looked embarrassed, while others fell into deep thought. With different thoughts in mind, everyone left the meeting room one after another.
Meanwhile, at the Saihanba Forest Farm, Qin Xuemei and several others were also working hard.
They conducted a careful survey and selection near the forest farm.
Finally, a suitable location was selected to establish a nursery.
The land is not large, about the size of a standard football field.
But it's more than enough for establishing an experimental nursery.
And in Li Zhong's office.
Xia Tian and Li Zhong's research on the semi-light seedling method has also entered the final sprint stage.
Li Zhong pushed up his glasses, looked at the documents in front of him, then looked at Xia Tian and said with emotion.
"Xia, it seems that this semi-light seedling raising method is indeed feasible."
"However, a theory is just a theory, and it remains to be seen whether it can be as effective as we have demonstrated."
"It still needs to be verified through actual experiments."
Xia Tian nodded, a wise glint in his eyes, and said.
"Teacher Li, I have already asked Comrade Xiao Meng and the others to prepare to set up the experimental nursery."
"Whether it is truly feasible or not, we still need to put it into practice."
"After all, the Chairman once said that practice is the sole criterion for testing truth."
"Only through practice can we know whether this method will actually work."
"Great, Xia! You've thought this through very well."
Li Zhong stood up, patted Xia Tian on the shoulder, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.
"Let's go find Director Yu now, report this semi-light seedling cultivation method to him, and hear his opinion."
Xia Tian quickly tidied up the documents on the table and went to Yu Zhenglai's office with Li Zhong.
Along the way, the two continued to discuss the details of the semi-light seedling cultivation method in hushed tones, their hearts filled with anticipation for the future.
Soon, they arrived at the manager's office.
When Yu Zheng saw them, a happy smile appeared on his face, and he quickly said...
"Xia, Director Li, you two have come at the perfect time! I was just about to send someone to find you!"
Xia Tian looked at Yu Zhenglai and a sense of curiosity welled up in her heart, so she asked him.
"What happened?"
Yu Zhenglai didn't hide anything and told the news on the spot.
"We just received a notice from the Ministry of Forestry asking us to postpone this spring's tree planting campaign."
After hearing this, Xia Tian was not greatly moved.
After all, the conditions in Saihanba are what they are.
Under such circumstances, carrying out large-scale mechanized afforestation is an unrealistic idea.
Such an order from above is indeed somewhat detached from reality.
In Xia Tian's view, this was simply baseless and reckless command.
"Director Yu, let's put this matter aside for now and talk about it later."
"Now I have something more important to report to you."
Li Zhong turned his gaze to Yu Zhenglai, his expression becoming extremely serious, and began to speak.
"Oh? What happened?"
Yu Zhenglai was also intrigued by Li Zhong's words.
