After Zhao Tianshan got his meal.
My eyes searched for Xia Tian's figure throughout the bustling cafeteria.
His eyes swept across the cafeteria, not missing a single corner.
But after searching for a long time, there was still no trace of summer.
Left with no other choice, Zhao Tianshan had to carry the rice bowl.
He hurried toward Feng Cheng and the other two who were eating in a corner.
He came to the table, slightly out of breath, and asked.
"Feng Cheng, have you seen Engineer Xia?"
When Feng Cheng heard Zhao Tianshan asking about Xia Tian, he stopped eating with his chopsticks.
After thinking for a while, he slowly shook his head and said.
"Xia, I don't think I've seen him all afternoon!"
"Captain, what do you want with Engineer Xia?"
Sui Zhichao, who was standing to the side, asked curiously.
Zhao Tianshan scratched his head, a hint of hesitation on his face, and gave an ambiguous answer.
"I need to talk to him about something!"
"Let's eat first, and then we'll talk."
Feng Cheng pointed to the rice bowl in Zhao Tianshan's hand and advised him.
Zhao Tianshan nodded, but still seemed somewhat absent-minded.
At this moment, in Li Zhong's office, Xia Tian was having a heated discussion with Li Zhong about the semi-light seedling cultivation method.
Before we knew it, the sky was slowly getting dark.
The sun had already quietly set behind the western mountains, leaving only a faint afterglow on the horizon.
The office lights gradually dimmed, and the once bright room became somewhat dark.
Summer was engrossed in her speech when she glanced up and suddenly realized what was happening.
"Teacher Li, it's getting dark, shall we go eat first?"
Xia Tian put down his pen and said to Li Zhong.
Li Zhong was deep in thought about Xia Tian's ideas, his mind still lingering on those novel thoughts.
Suddenly hearing the sound of summer, I looked up as if waking from a dream and glanced at the sky outside the window.
"Okay, let's go eat first!"
Li Zhong stood up and went to the cafeteria with Xia Tian.
When the two arrived at the cafeteria, they found it deserted and the head chef had already left for the day.
Wei Fugui was the only one left in the kitchen cleaning up the swill. He was bent over and working diligently.
"Old Wei, is there anything else to eat?"
Xia Tian looked at Wei Fugui, who was busy at work, and asked him a question.
"Hey, Engineer Xia, haven't you eaten yet?"
Upon hearing Xia Tian's voice, Wei Fugui stopped what he was doing.
He looked up, a hint of surprise on his face.
"No, I was busy with something and forgot!"
Summer answered with a smile.
"There's hardly anything left to eat!"
Wei Fugui glanced at the sideboard.
"How about I make you some again?"
Upon hearing Xia Tian's answer, Wei Fugui looked at Xia Tian and asked her a question.
Summer didn't stand on ceremony and said with a smile.
"That's a good feeling!"
"Alright, Engineer Xia, please have a seat!"
As Wei Fugui spoke, he turned around to prepare the ingredients.
"By the way, make the portions bigger! Director Li hasn't eaten yet!"
Seeing Wei Fugui put on his apron, Xia Tian added another sentence.
"okay!"
Wei Fugui readily agreed.
Xia Tian watched Wei Fugui busy in the kitchen and sat down opposite Li Zhong.
"Teacher Li, there's not much food left in the cafeteria! The head chef is making some for us!"
Upon hearing this, Li Zhong frowned slightly and asked a question.
"Wouldn't it be too much trouble for the master chef?"
"No trouble at all. The head chef is Wei Fugui from the advance team. You've met him before!"
Xia Tian listened to Li Zhong's words and smiled as she explained.
"Teacher Li, actually, if we really want to plant trees this spring, it's not impossible!"
After sitting for a while, Xia Tian seemed to have thought of something and spoke to Li Zhong.
"Oh?! Didn't you oppose planting trees this spring?"
Li Zhong became interested upon hearing Xia Tian's words.
He put down his water glass and looked at Xia Tian with curiosity.
"What I opposed before was blindly planting trees in Saihanba."
Summer sat up straight and said with a serious expression.
"But then I thought about it again, the forest farm has more than 300 employees."
"We can't just sit around looking at a nursery all spring without doing anything else!"
"In that case, most people would be idle."
"And if most people have nothing to do, it will make the forest farm difficult to manage."
"Therefore, spring afforestation is still very necessary."
"However, we can change the choice of this tree species!"
"Oh, tell me in detail, how will it change?"
Li Zhong's curiosity was piqued by Xia Tian's words, and he leaned forward, eager to know the answer.
"We can choose to plant desert shrubs."
Summer's eyes sparkled with an amazing light.
"We had all fallen into a misconception."
"That's just planting trees, and there's no rule saying it has to be tall trees!"
"Shrubs are a type of tree!"
"Moreover, compared to trees, shrubs have more obvious advantages."
Hearing Xia Tian's words, Li Zhong had a sudden inspiration and excitedly said...
"Xia, you're absolutely right!"
"No one says that trees must be tall trees!"
"Xia, how did you get your brain working like that?"
"First came the full-light seedling cultivation method, then the semi-light seedling cultivation method, and then the idea of planting shrubs was proposed!"
"Your brain is really amazing."
Xia Tian smiled at Li Zhong's praise, not taking it to heart, and said modestly.
"Teacher Li, I was just thinking about it randomly."
"However, this shrub still has a certain disadvantage, namely that it cannot be used for large-scale mechanized afforestation."
Summer thought for a moment and then added a sentence.
"These are not big problems! We can figure out how to solve them gradually."
Li Zhong waved his hand dismissively.
As the two were talking, Wei Fugui came over carrying a bowl of stir-fried potatoes and cabbage and several steamed buns made from mixed flour.
The steaming hot food exuded a simple, rustic aroma, making the slightly chilly canteen feel especially warm.
"Engineer Xia, Site Manager Li!"
Wei Fugui greeted him with a smile.
"Old Wei, have you eaten? Sit down and have something to eat with us."
Xia Tian looked at Wei Fugui'er and asked a question.
"Engineer Xia, I've already eaten. You two should eat quickly!"
Wei Fugui smiled shyly and said to Xia Tian.
"By the way, Lao Wei, how's work lately?"
Summer picked up her chopsticks and asked with concern.
When Xia Tian asked about his job, Wei Fugui'er immediately looked distressed and sighed.
"Engineer Xia, to be honest with you!"
"The canteen at this forest farm is staffed with top-notch chefs."
"My cooking skills are so poor, I'm not even mediocre."
"As you just saw, all I can do is clean up the kitchen."
"Old Wei, why don't you quit working in the cafeteria?"
"Feng Cheng and his team are still short-staffed at their No. 1 nursery."
"If you want to go to Nursery No. 1, I'll transfer you there."
Xia Tian looked at Wei Fugui'er and asked for his opinion.
Wei Fugui'er was also a member of the advance team.
Moreover, the learning enhancement class performed quite well last year.
It's really a waste of such a talented person to have him working in the cafeteria.
