Chapter 269

"I just wanted to introduce you two to each other. I didn't ask you to get married right away. You still feel embarrassed." Li Jiandong teased Yang Jie
At this moment, Yang Jie looked like just an ordinary girl, with none of the business-like qualities at all.

In fact, for a woman, there is no need to work hard in the business world. She just needs to work hard to find a good man to take care of her husband and children.

However, Li Jiandong from Century knew that Yang Jie had only one daughter in his family and that she would definitely take over the family business in the future.

When we were having a happy chat, a good joke came up.

"Grandpa Li, my father heard that Grandma Qin is back, and wanted me to invite you over for dinner." Banggeng's clean and magnetic voice made Yang Jie look at him a few more times.

There are really some nice guys in this courtyard. This guy has a magnetic voice and a gentle appearance. He is much better than those in Hong Kong.

"How about it? I think the young man just now is quite pleasing to your eye." Li Jiandong saw through Yang Jie's thoughts and continued to tease him.

Yang Jie blushed, lowered her head and said nothing, it was obvious that she was attracted by Bang Geng.

"Okay, since you think it's good, stop teasing him. Let's take him over for dinner today."

Qin Huairu also saw what the girl was thinking and wanted to bring them together.

"It's a good opportunity for you to go over and tell Dongxu so that the two kids can go on a blind date." Qin Huairu instructed Li Jiandong.

"Okay, okay, you two can chat for a while. If you have anything to say, tell your mistress. I'll go and help you talk to her first."

It has to be said that Li Jiandong and his wife are both kind-hearted and have helped Siheyuan a lot over the years.

"Master, I've also seen Yang Jie. He's a rare talent. How could he look down on us, Bang Geng?" Although Jia Dongxu has new-age ideas, he still feels that the couple should be well-matched.

"What's your idea? As long as the two kids like each other, don't tell me what a good match is." Li Jiandong shook his head. His apprentice was too honest. He paid attention to everything about being well-matched. But there weren't so many such good matches.

"Master, then I will listen to you and let them go on a blind date." Liang Ladi said.

Liang Ladi and Jia Dongxu were busy in the kitchen together, and Cooking Stick Geng followed Li Jiandong back to Li Jiandong's home.

"Banggeng, this is the person I want to introduce to you. Her name is Yang Jie. She lives in Hong Kong and is the eldest daughter of the Hong Kong Cosmetics Factory." Li Jiandong briefly introduced Yang Jie.

"Yang Jie, this is Bang Geng, my apprentice's son."

Li Jiandong said with a smile, and Yang Jie laughed when he heard it.

"Then is he going to ask me to call me little nun?" Banggeng blushed and smiled when he heard that.

"I don't care about seniority here. As long as you like each other, it doesn't matter whether you are a junior sister or not." Li Jiandong said seriously.

"I have a bit of a spoiled brat temper. I don't know if you can stand being with me."

It was obvious that Yang Jie was attracted by the joke when he asked this question.

"If I can be with you, it will be my blessing, and I will definitely treat you well."

In fact, Banggeng took a liking to Yang Jie when he saw her for the first time, so he was willing to give it a try with the girl.

"Then if one day my father needs me to go back and inherit the family business, would you be willing to go with me?" Yang Jie asked this, and it was obvious that he was treating you as a marriage partner.

Bang Geng nodded and shook his head, not knowing what to say

"What do you mean? Why do you shake your head and then nod?" Yang Jie found it a little funny to see the boy in front of him who seemed to have not grown up.

"I am willing to go back with you, but I need to consider my father and mother." Banggeng himself certainly did not have any requirements, but Jia Dongxu only had this one son.

"Don't worry about that. If you are willing to come back with me, I can take your father and mother to Xiangjiang."

With Yang Jie's ability, he can indeed provide for their entire family.

"These two kids were talking quite deeply." Li Jiandong shook his head and smiled maliciously.

"Since we're going on a blind date, we must be aiming for marriage, so of course we have to have a more in-depth conversation." Qin Huairu still had the same old idea.

Although Li Jiandong did not understand and did not agree with his wife's ideas, he still doted on her.

"What you said makes sense, but the son-in-law of Jackie Chan of the Hong Kong Cosmetics Factory is about to be born. Do you think Yang Hao will thank me when the time comes?" Li Jiandong smiled.

"You have everything you need now, why do you have to ask others to thank you? Why don't you do something good for the children?"

Qin Huairu felt particularly helpless, her man was always like this, he was clearly doing good things, but he always remembered to ask for some compensation, as if he had ulterior motives.

In this way, Banggeng and Yang Jie confirmed their relationship.

Jia Dongxu was still a little worried. After all, he didn't want his only son to be too far away from home.

"Master, you said that there is no difference in generation between the two of them. Miss Yang is a very good junior sister."

Jia Dongxu didn't dare to say he disagreed directly, but just said it tentatively.

Li Jiandong knew his disciple Jia Dongxu very well and of course knew what was in his mind.

"Dongxu, I remember when you were together with Liang Ladi, it seemed that many people disapproved of it, but in the end you two still ended up together."

"Besides, it's a different era now. They are not my children, so why bother about seniority? I think they are a good match." Li Jiandong couldn't help but teach his apprentice a lesson.

Jia Dongxu wanted to say something, but was stopped by his wife Liang Ladi.

Yang Dali understands her son well. After all, he hasn't had a girlfriend for so many years. He finally finds one and if the relationship is ruined, it will be difficult for him to get out of the shadow for the rest of his life.

"Why did you stop me while we were having dinner just now and say that we only have this one son? Are you really willing to let him go to Hong Kong?" Jia Dongxu didn't understand his wife's behavior just now.

"Don't you think what the master said is right? When we were together, many people disagreed, but we are together now. Why should we let our son follow our old path? As parents, since our son has made up his mind, we should support him."

I have to say that Liang Ladi lives a very transparent life.

After hearing what his wife said, Jia Dongxu fell into deep thought. Perhaps his wife and master were right. Since his son had grown up, there was no need to tie him to his side.

My son is already an independent individual and he needs to make decisions on many things by himself.

The development of the new era is to go out. My son may be able to develop better in Hong Kong. What's more, he is not going there to work, but to become the son-in-law of the local richest man.

In the following period, Bang Geng and Yang Jie got along very well and decided to stay together for the rest of their lives. Li Jiandong also developed the cosmetics factory very well.

There were endless orders every day, and at this time he received a call from above.

"Brother Huaimin, you said you are so old and should have retired long ago, why did the higher-ups recruit you back?" Qin Huairu didn't want her man to suffer any more, so she complained.

Li Jiandong, on the contrary, felt that since his superiors needed him, he should step forward.

"I must have encountered something very difficult, otherwise the higher-ups wouldn't have called me back. Since they need me, I must go back." Li Jiandong was very conscious.

"Okay, okay, I can't say anything to you. If you're not tired, go ahead," Qin Ya said, looking very unhappy.

Of course he knew his wife was worried about him, but he really had to respond to the call from above. Li Jiandong comforted his wife, packed up his things, and left immediately.

"Chief Engineer Li, there are problems with the rice in Rabbit's family. Recently, there was a group of locusts that destroyed all the rice. We are now suffering heavy losses."

"I asked you to come back this time because I want to know if we can solve the locust cholera. Otherwise, we will really suffer from famine in the future."

The leader anxiously stated the purpose of this trip.

"You see, the locusts have started to move from the south to the north. They have destroyed most of the rice. We must find a way to save the remaining rice." The leader became more and more anxious as he spoke.

Li Jiandong frowned, searching in his mind how to deal with the locusts. However, it might be a bit tricky under the current conditions.

"This matter came up suddenly. Let me think about it, and I will definitely think of a solution.

Li Jiandong said lightly.

But the leaders above are really anxious now, so how can they let him go back and think about it? They really want him to find a solution on the spot.

Now there are more and more locusts, and the scope of rice destruction is getting larger and larger. If this continues, all the rice will be destroyed, and it will be a problem to have enough food and warm clothes.

There are only a few ways to deal with locusts, either use chemical pesticides to kill all of them.

Otherwise, we can introduce natural enemies of locusts, but these natural enemies of locusts may destroy our country's ecosystem.

The third method is to kill the locusts, but this method requires a lot of manpower and material resources.

Which specific approach should be adopted still needs careful consideration.

"Don't worry. At this migration speed, it will take him a year or so to destroy all the rice. So give me some time to solve it." Li Jiandong kept comforting his leader. After all, it was the first time for the leader to encounter such a difficult problem.

"Master, please go back and have a rest first. We will think about the problem slowly. This will not be solved in a short time." Xu Damao felt sorry for his master and wanted him to go back and have a good rest.

"This hybrid rice was developed by you. If it is destroyed, won't you feel sad? I don't have time to rest. I must think of a way to solve it."

Although Li Jiandong knew that his apprentice felt sorry for him, the problem needed to be solved without delay. If the problem of food and clothing that he had finally solved was destroyed by locusts at this moment, it would take an unknown amount of time to solve the problem again.

Xu Damao didn't dare to say anything. Of course, he felt sorry for the fruits of his labor, but he also didn't want his master to collapse from exhaustion.

"Master, if you need any instructions, just let me do it. You take a good rest. After all, you are old."

Although Xu Damao was telling the truth, Li Jiandong still felt uncomfortable after hearing it. After all, he looked very young, only about 30 years old.

Over the years, the health index obtained through the system has been getting higher and higher. I am afraid that none of these disciples can live longer than him, and none of them are as healthy as him.

"It's you who should rest now. I'll find a solution."

Li Jiandong said, Xu Damao has racked his brains to solve the locust problem during this period of time, and now he is a little depressed. If the master had not come, he would probably not have time to rest.

After all, he is the main force of the institute, and everyone depends on him for support. "Thank you, Master. I really can't stand it anymore. I'll go and rest for a while. Call me if you need anything."

Xu Damao felt that his body was overdrawn so he was willing to go and take a rest.

Li Jiandong stopped talking during the day shift and prepared to study how to control the locusts.

With your current production technology and level, I'm afraid there is no way to produce pesticides to kill locusts.

If other organisms are introduced, the natural enemies of locusts may destroy the ecosystem of the rabbit's home. By then, after the locust problem has been solved, the bird problem will have to be solved. Moreover, this method is long-term and takes time to complete. I am afraid that rice cannot wait.

After much thought, the most reliable way is to capture them. Now the most reliable way is to use either a sickle or an electric fence. If the two are combined, it should be possible to control the locusts from continuing to invade.

When Xu Da Mao wakes up, I will discuss with him how to weave a web.

I'm afraid it won't be enough just relying on the two of them, master and disciple. They also need to call on other disciples.

With the concerted efforts of many masters and apprentices, it will be completed quickly.

"Master Li, have you figured out how to solve it?" The next day, the leader couldn't help but urge him again.

"The best way now is to use an electric fence to capture it, but in addition to electricity, the electric fence must also have metal blades to completely control it."

"Because we have no way to produce pesticides, if we introduce other species it will disrupt the ecological balance. The power grid is the only reliable one."

Li Jiandong’s explanation was very clear and the leader nodded, saying that this suggestion was indeed the best one so far.

"Okay, then it's settled. What to do next is up to you. Tell me who you need and I'll find them."

The leader hurriedly said that he still had other problems to solve.

"Just don't call all of my disciples here. The others are not needed."

Li Jiandong works best when he partners with his apprentices.

Then the system, which had not sounded for a long time, started to sound again.

"The mission of saving rice project has started."

"Accept the mission challenge and receive $50."

"You have nothing to lose by not accepting the mission challenge."

Li Jiandong smiled. What kind of mission was this? There was no reason for him to refuse this mission. No matter what, even if there was no reward, he had to take on this mission to save the people.

Of course, I accepted the challenge of the task without any suspense.

However, it is difficult to guess people's hearts nowadays, and apart from his apprentice, he has no one else he can trust.

"Jia Dongxu, Shazhu, Yan Jiecheng and Xu Damao are all I need. I don't need anyone else."

Li Jiandong named his apprentice and asked the others to leave the laboratory.

"Chief Engineer Li, shouldn't we assign you as many people as possible? Why only so few?" The leader didn't quite understand.

"Others don't know what I want to do. Even if I ask them to come, I'm afraid they will be in a mess."

In the end, Li Jiandong did not tell the truth but just found a high-sounding excuse.

The leader thought it made sense. After all, they were master and apprentice, so they had a better understanding of each other.

"As long as this disaster can be resolved, whoever you want will obey you."

The leaders of the Agriculture Bureau no longer had any ideas and listened to Li Jiandong in everything.

Jia Dongxu, Sha Zhu and Yan Jiecheng arrived from all directions in just one day.

"I wonder what plans the master has for calling us back this time?"

Sha Zhu asked, obviously not knowing what was going on.

"There has been a locust plague recently, didn't you know?" Li Jiandong suddenly felt that his disciples were a little unconcerned about people's livelihood.

"I just heard about it yesterday, Master? Do you want us to help you solve this problem?" Yan Jiecheng asked.

"Master has thought of a solution. Now we need this electric fence, but Master is worried about the others, so he summoned you guys back."

Xu Damao answered the question for Li Jiandong.

"So that's how it is. Master, tell me what arrangements you have."

The way Shazhu realizes things too late is kind of cute.

Li Jiandong briefly explained his ideas, and everyone understood and started working.

Finally, after working through several nights, they completed the weaving of the electric fence.

"Master, we have already completed one. Do you want to test the effect?"

Xu Damao suggested. Li Jiandong nodded, as he had just had this idea.

"I want to find a rice field to try out the effect first."

Li Jiandong told the truth, and the leader had no reason to refuse. He quickly found a suitable test field and did some verification, and it really stopped the locusts.
This method is reliable, but the range of rice is very large, so it may require a lot of nets.

It won't work just relying on just a few of them, the leader wants to speed things up.

"Chief Engineer Li, why don't you add more staff?"

Li Jiandong didn't say anything after hearing this and fell into deep thought. He didn't know what to do. It would be very troublesome if there was another person like Li Mei.

However, the problem cannot be solved without increasing manpower, as their speed will definitely not be able to catch up with the speed of the locusts.

Li Jiandong finally decided to increase the number of staff. After all, no matter what, he still felt that solving the problem quickly was the most important thing.

"Okay, then let's find a few reliable ones." The leader understood what Li Jiandong meant and didn't say much.

"Everyone listen to my disciples. Let's solve the locust problem as soon as possible, otherwise we will all starve next year."

Li Jiandong felt that this was closely related to everyone and these people should not do anything.

"Chief Engineer Li, don't worry. We will work hard. Only when the locusts are eliminated can we survive. We understand this."

"I believe in you, keep going."

Li Jiandong smiled and said nothing more. He could only pray that the Wa family would not sneak in.

Of course, there is a restless gene in the blood of the Frog family, and this cannot be erased.

"Chief, locusts have damaged some of the rabbit family's rice, but now Li Jiandong has come up with a solution and has managed to control some of them. What should we do next?"

The secretary was a little worried.

The chief frowned, "It's ok that Li Jiandong doesn't cooperate with us, but he always goes against us. We can't let him go."

Since I can't get it, the best way is to destroy him.

"Then what should we do?"

The secretary was a little confused. After all, getting rid of Li Jiandong was not an easy task.

"Li Jiandong, we can't get rid of him openly, so we can threaten him."

The chief thought of a despicable idea.

As long as Li Jiandong's family is captured, Li Jiandong will be controlled. At that time, even if Li Jiandong does not cooperate with himself, he will not cooperate with the people of the Rabbit family.

"The chief is still amazing. Now we know."

The secretary understood that since he couldn't control Li Jiandong, he would arrest his family.

I heard that Li Jiandong's family is in Hong Kong, so it must be easy to catch him.

"I'll send someone right away."

The secretary was busy arranging these things.

However, the leader was still worried. How could he let Li Jiandong easily solve the locust disaster that he had created with great difficulty?
"Send another person to destroy Li Jiandong's web-weaving organization and let the locusts continue to advance."

The chief felt that as long as there were spies trying to sow discord between Li Jiandong and him, it would be unrealistic to control the locusts if he wanted to complete the web weaving on time.

"I have sent someone over, but Li Jiandong is very cautious and only uses old employees and not new ones." The secretary felt annoyed when he mentioned this.

Through Li Mei's experience, Li Jiandong has become much smarter and is no longer willing to gamble.

Li Jiandong only employs old employees who have been working for many years, so there is no chance of any problems.

"In this case, let's defeat them one by one."

The head of the Frog family has not left the Rabbit family since the last time.

I have been planning here how to destroy Li Jiandong. (End of this chapter)
