Chapter 249 A gift from a good man

The incident in the cotton field was a bad start for Zhou Ziang's trip to Xinjiang.

Regarding Zhou Qizheng's family's few acres of fields, Zhou Ziang even went to the mayor specifically, hoping to consider their special situation and redistribute Zhou Qizheng's few acres of new cotton fields. This is the best way to solve the Zhou family's distressed living environment. direct method.

After listening to the mayor, he just said, "Xiao Zhou, you don't know the situation in our town. The cotton harvest has been good in recent years, and a large number of Uighurs who have worked outside and can't make a living come back, and they are rushing to ask me for cotton. Zhou Qizheng’s a few acres of land, he wants to go there, and he said categorically in front of the big cotton farmer Ahmaiti that when his family’s cotton field grows cotton bolls, Ahmaiti will also It can only be jealous."

The implication is that the current miserable situation of the Zhou family is all self-inflicted, and they cannot blame others.

It's enough to put a hot face on a cold butt once. Zhou Ziang is not a person who is willing to give up easily. After that, he went to Zhou's cotton field several times, analyzing everything from the cotton tree itself to the soil where the cotton is grown. However, the conclusion is still the same, it is impossible to grow good cotton trees without keeping phosphorus and potassium fertilizers.

What puzzled Zhou Ziang was that there was talk of soil erosion, but there was never a talk of fertilizer loss. Moreover, Zhou Qizheng's few acres of land was dry with little rain, and there was no possibility of the fertilizer being washed away by the rain. Can evaporate in the air.

Seeing Uncle Zhou standing on the cotton field lost in thought like his father before, Palidan walked over, blushing, "Uncle, Dad said, we are going to move soon."

Zhou Qizheng did not send the soil to WLMQ for inspection. He has already heard from his wife that Zhou Ziang’s identity is from BJ, and the recommendation letter was written by Director Yu. His words can be wrong, and so many years of time were wasted. , used up the family's money, just guarding the abandoned fields that are not as good as a few acres of "bamboo baskets", Zhou Qizheng's heart is completely dead.

The few acres of cotton fields in Uruksa Town have also become an eternal regret in his heart.

"Going to move? You and your brother should be very happy, and no one will come to take your brother away from now on. It's fine if you move, but this is not a suitable place for you to live in," lived in the town for a few days, since Judging from the attitude of the Uighurs toward the Han people, the life of Zhou Qizheng's family should be difficult.But if I moved to the place where the Han people lived, with two Uyghur bloods and a mother who was born and raised in Uruksa, would I be able to adapt?

"No, Uruksa is the most fertile place in XJ. We are next to the Tianshan Mountains, and the melted snow water will nourish our land every year. Our family loves this land very much. Also, uncle, you are wrong Cotton can be grown in this field here." Palidan thought since she was a child that her father rarely left her and her younger brother because he put all his thoughts on the cotton field.So after hearing her father say that she would never grow cotton again, she was very happy at first.

However, in the second half of the night before yesterday, she heard her mother crying.After Uncle Zhou told Dad that the cotton field and the nearby land could not grow cotton, Dad gave up planting cotton, and he had to leave Uruksa and take the whole family back to his hometown. A small town far, far away.

Palidan liked Uruksa as much as she liked the freckles on the tip of her mother's nose, even though few people in Uruksa liked her.But she grew up here, the sunshine here, the sand here, everything here is so familiar, if she leaves Uruksa, Palidan becomes a bird with broken wings, With a broken kite, she will not be happy.

"Palidan, uncle, I'm sorry to comment on the land where you were born and raised like this. But there is really nothing to grow here. Leave here, the sky outside is high and wide, and you and your family will have a better life." Zhou Ziang squeezed the soil with his fist, and the sandy loam fell back to the ground from his hands.

"No, things can be grown here. If you don't believe me, follow me," Pa Lidan picked up the Uighur girl's skirt on her body, and ran to a high ground behind the cotton field.

Going down from the high ground are two small hump-like connected small slopes. Such slopes can be seen everywhere in the Uruksa formation, and they are piled up by the perennial wind and sand.

Zhou Ziang followed a few steps. The soil quality of this generation is basically the same. Due to the lack of human care, the grass covering the ground here is very scarce. Mark of.

"It's right here, Uncle. Look, this is a cotton plant. It grows so well." Pa Lidan brought Zhou Ziang to look at a four-meter-high tree. Is it a cotton tree? It is debatable that cotton trees generally cannot grow so tall.

Zhou Ziang is more than 1.8 meters tall, and he can reach the bottom few branches under the tree with his hands.He touched the leaves with his hands to determine the lines on them.

Pa Lidan looked up at Zhou Ziang nervously.You must believe her words, this tree was planted after the cotton seeds she secretly left behind when she helped others pick cotton.

After the tree grew, she specially asked her friends to come and see it. She wanted them to see that their family could grow good cotton trees.

But the little friends laughed at her, and even my father said it was not a cotton tree after seeing the tree she planted.It is a cotton tree, although it grows very tall, although it does not grow white cotton like other cotton trees.This tall cotton tree doesn't grow cotton bolls that match its tree shape. It grows green pods with hard shells, strange fruits that can't be broken no matter how hard you beat them.

"When was this cotton tree planted?" After pondering, Zhou Ziang asked back. It was a cotton tree, but it had mutated so much that even Zhou Ziang could hardly recognize it.

"I planted it not long after my father planted cotton, and it grew very quickly, and it became that size all at once," Palidan thought at that time, if her head could grow to its full size so soon Well, then she can grow up earlier, earn money to treat her mother's illness, and can also give her father a lot of cotton fields, and buy more Bahari for her younger brother.

"Uncle! Do you believe it is a cotton tree? Even the most powerful Grandpa Ahmad in the town doesn't know the name of this tree." A good child's heart is the easiest to satisfy. Sometimes, all she needs is A glance, or the simplest trust.

"I'm sorry, Palidan. Uncle wants to apologize to you. I shouldn't have said that this piece of land is a 'bamboo basket'." There is no useless soil in the world. This cotton tree not only has amazing plants, but once the cotton bolls mature, the first It can harvest 1000 cotton bolls a year, and those bolls alone can process more than 100 kilograms of high-quality cotton.After reasonable pruning, it can produce cotton bolls twice a year, and each time it can increase 100 bolls. This should be the best cotton tree in Uruksa, or even in the world.

It's a pity that no one in Uruksa can pick the cotton bolls from this tree.Most of the cotton in the town is picked by hand. In Ahmat’s own cotton field, machine picking has been adopted. After cleaning the leaves of the cotton tree with non-toxic defoliants, the cotton bolls are automatically split. Easy to pick.

"Uncle is the first person to believe in Palidan, you are a good person, thank you." The little girl was moved and sent her most sincere thanks.

nice guy?Zhou Ziang smiled wryly, no one said he was a good person for many years.Since you are a good person, let's be a good person to the end.

"Uncle gave you a gift, close your eyes,"

There was a magical power in the words of this uncle Zhou who also came from a very far away place, and Palidan obediently closed her eyes.

A cotton boll landed in Zhou Ziang's hand, looking at the bulky and hard fruit body, it fell into his hand, but he didn't feel heavy.

A faint amount of spiritual power was poured into the green shell, and a crisp explosion sound came out of the shell, and the green was replaced by white that continuously expanded.

Since the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the cotton that has added countless warmth to the Chinese people is actually just a kind of plant fiber, and at this time this fiber has covered Zhou Ziang's entire palm.

"You can open your eyes now," Zhou Ziang smiled and asked Pa Lidan to open his eyes.

Pa Lidan looked at Zhou Ziang's hand suspiciously, "Your cotton tree gave you a gift."

The little girl's cheers resounded through the empty slopes.

Zhou Ziang smiled, watching Palidan run across the several acres of cotton fields and head towards home.Uruksa may not be the richest place, but it has the most suitable soil for Palidan and her brother.

"It's almost time to clear up the doubts," Zhou Ziang turned to look at the cotton tree.

If there is no mistake in prediction, this tree is the chief culprit that caused Zhou Qizheng's three acres of land to be barren and barren.

Palidan had already run across the cotton field, and there was no one around. This cotton tree with an extremely hard shell, even the birds refused to perch on the tree. It stood alone, proud and lonely, just like him.

Zhou Ziang kicked his feet. On such a dry sandy soil, his pedaling didn't bring up any dust.

Grasping the branch with his hand, Zhou Ziang has already shuttled among the branches and leaves of the cotton tree. From the leaves, to the cotton bolls, to the bark, there is nothing left of the tree trunk. Finally, Zhou Ziang focused his attention on the cotton tree. a certain part of.

The veins of the tree buried deep in the soil can grow so lushly in a dry environment without human irrigation. The root of this tree should be the answer he is looking for today.

After turning over from the tree, Zhou Ziang stared at the cotton tree, and there was a majestic aura flying around him, like the breath of a wind dragon.

All of a sudden, sand and rocks flew, the foundation of the tree was shaken, and a majestic aura gushed out to form a scene.
