Chapter 164 - 165

Chapter 164 Going to Beijing

Gu Mingdong looked at the person in front of him in surprise, with a strange expression on his face: "What did you say?"

Uncle Gu's face was red and full of energy: "A Dong, you are going to Beijing!"

"Professor Hong made a report when he got back, saying that our Shanghe Village has good water and soil, and the rice we grow is good. The rice seeds are very suitable for use as the seeds of the best varieties."

"Now the Academy of Agricultural Sciences has approved Professor Hong's application and requires Shanghe Village to send the latest batch of improved seeds harvested this autumn to Beijing for research."

The more Uncle Gu talked, the more excited he became: "A Dong, Professor Hong has named you to go with us. He said that you are most familiar with local production and can provide valuable advice."

As he spoke, Uncle Gu patted his eldest nephew's back hard: "You have given old Gu a lot of face. Your dad would be so happy if he knew about it."

Gu Mingdong really didn't expect that Professor Hong would be able to apply for this after returning.

Obviously before leaving, Professor Hong had already attributed all the credit for Shanghe Village's bumper harvest to Zheng Tong, and metaphysics covered up the effects of science.

Could it be that the professor discovered something after returning?

Gu Mingdong shook his head, thinking it was impossible.

In any case, being able to go to Beijing is a great thing for Gu Mingdong.

He couldn't help but smile a little: "I didn't expect Professor Hong to still remember me, uncle. When will we set off?"

"Secretary Wang said that the town is ready. It should be sooner rather than later. It is best to come back before the year."

The fruits of labor are valued by professors in Beijing. This is not only an honor for the Shanghe Village production team, but also an honor for the entire Xiyuan Town.

When Secretary Wang received the notice from the superiors, his face almost burst into laughter. Who would have thought that a small Xiyuan Town could show its face to the superiors?

It was the first time that Uncle Gu knew that Secretary Wang, who had always been serious and upright, could be so amiable.

Uncle Gu looked at his eldest nephew and suddenly realized that Gu Mingdong had a convincing feeling whenever he stood there.

In Uncle Gu's memory, although this eldest nephew was good-looking, he had been weak since he was a child and could not endure hardships. After his eldest brother and sister-in-law disappeared, he originally hoped that the eldest brother would stand up, but who knew...

At that time, Uncle Gu thought that in order for his elder brother and sister-in-law to feel at ease underground, he would have to help a few nephews and nieces grow up.

Who knows that time has changed and this child has suddenly grown up.

Looking at his eldest nephew who was taller than himself, Uncle Gu said with a smile: "A Dong, although you are not a cadre, it is always good to go out and see the world."

"Secretary Wang said that originally he wanted to send a truck to transport it directly, but the truck was too tired and unstable along the way. It was better to take the train directly."

"The round-trip ticket and travel expenses will be reimbursed, and Secretary Ma will go with you."

The matter was settled like this, and Gu Mingdong had no room to refuse. If he refused, Secretary Wang could call someone to discuss political ideals.
