It's broken, and was picked up by a femme fatale

Early morning hours.

At the original site of Yanxianghui.

An empty factory building was crowded with people.

Although Lu Yuan planned to let these people work during the day and come to study at night.

But today is the first day, so naturally we have to let these people come over and get acquainted with the place first.

Lu Yuan didn't hold any opening ceremony, nor did he do anything else.

After everyone was brought in, the first class of the Agriculture Department began.

What to teach? I talked about hybridization before.

The world is not completely ignorant of hybrid breeding operations.

Take hybridization, for example.

The most famous offspring of a horse and a donkey is the mule.

For example, using yaks and cattle, domestic chickens and pheasants, Muscovy ducks and Mallards.

These things all belong to hybridization technology, of course, they are not agricultural crops.

However, everyone can understand what hybridization means. If everyone has a basic understanding, then what Lu Yuan is going to talk about next will be much easier to understand.

The first thing to talk about is high-yield crops.

Although this place outside the Great Wall is known for its most famous crop on earth, it is definitely Wuchang rice.

But Lu Yuan’s first lesson was not about Wuchang rice.

Instead, I am going to talk about sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn, the three high-yield crops.

The yields of these three crops are extremely high.

For example, the normal yield of sweet potatoes per mu is 6000 kilograms, while in some high-yield areas it can reach over kilograms.

It's just that this is the production capacity of the earth.

It is the power behind technology.

Among them are more scientific and efficient planting methods.

There are also fertilizers to increase production.

Of course, the most important thing is the choice of variety.

As for the current situation outside the Great Wall, the current sweet potato yield per mu is only about 1000 kilograms.

This is really far from what we have on Earth.

But even so, it is still the crop with the highest yield per mu here.

The reason is because of what I just said.

The most important thing among these is the choice of variety.

As for these varieties of crops, they actually change every year on Earth.

Some agricultural science academies are developing hybrid breeding of crops based on the background of the current era.

For example, the corn 20 years ago is different from the corn today.

Nowadays, corn is sweet and delicious whether you cook it directly or grind it into flour and use it to make pancakes.

Especially now that there are many obese people on the earth, living conditions are also very good, and there are all kinds of high-calorie foods, so people are no longer lacking in nutrition.

Therefore, it is often recommended that people eat coarse grains.

People now feel that the coarse grains they eat are really good and delicious.

But this only happened in a short 20 years.

If you go back 20 years, you will find that this whole grain is really unpalatable.

Because cornmeal 20 years ago was not like it is now.

In the past, the pancakes made from corn flour were really hard and tasted terrible.

After it cools down, it is harder than a brick.

Even when it is hot, you will find it irritating your throat and difficult to swallow when you put it in your mouth. You can't eat it at all.

This is all because countless agricultural predecessors have improved this corn variety over the past 20 years.

This is true for many, many things besides corn.

For example, the seedless Qilin watermelon we have today was bred by Professor Wu Mingzhu at the Hainan breeding base.

It only takes about 60 days from planting to flowering, and from flowering to harvesting, and the fruits have a good taste and high sweetness.

For example, when winter comes, you can see all kinds of roasted sweet potatoes on the streets, and the variety of roasted sweet potato is Yanshu No. 25.

It is a sweet sweet potato bred by Shandong Yantai Academy of Agricultural Sciences in 1999.

For example, tomatoes have been frequently complained about in recent years.

Everyone says that tomatoes used to be juicy, sweet and thin-skinned.

Nowadays, tomatoes are not only juicy, but also have thick skin and flesh, and they taste like they are not ripe.

This is also due to the changes in new varieties.

The reason for this, which seems to be a bad change, is entirely because tomatoes are now designed for better transportation.

There are disadvantages and advantages.

However, being chosen by the market will definitely bring more advantages than disadvantages.

And now for Lu Yuan’s Agricultural Department.

The first point is not to pursue taste and flavor, but to pursue higher yield per mu.

First figure out whether there is any, and then consider the taste issue after you have it.

Of course, these things don’t necessarily come first or later.

These two do not conflict and can be carried out simultaneously.

In the first class, Lu Yuan began to teach everyone how to select seeds, how to raise seedlings, and how to hybridize.

Of course, these things made everyone stunned.

Originally, these people scoffed at the so-called Department of Agriculture and the fact that Lu Yuan wanted to teach everyone how to farm.

You have to be kidding me!

What did you do before? You farmed!
That's all the details, more or less the same, what's there to say?

What’s more, a guild leader came to teach everyone who has made a living by farming for generations how to farm.

You must be kidding!
Before, no one really paid much attention to this matter, and didn't care much.
I am willing to come here purely because of the good benefits. If I can be selected, I will be a direct third-level worker.

But now after listening to it, everyone has a face full of question marks.

Ah, you can still farm like this?

Lu Yuan talked for the whole morning, getting straight to the point and saying a lot.

But it was obvious that no matter how much Lu Yuan said, it was impossible for these people to understand everything.

That doesn’t matter. In everything, it is important to integrate knowledge and action.

It is better to do it once than to say it 10000 times.

In the afternoon, Lu Yuan will be in a newly built greenhouse, which can be understood as a greenhouse.

Lu Yuan will teach these people how to select seeds and how to cross-breed.

How to record the surrounding temperature and environmental changes during the breeding process.

noon.

The simple canteen was crowded with people.

Everyone eats together.

Lu Yuan sat at a table alone, and sitting opposite him were Zhao Qiaoer and Li Qingluan.

Lu Yuan left early in the morning without eating. The two women were worried and followed him.

He first went to the factory outside the city, but after hearing that Lu Yuan led people here, he followed.

When the two arrived, Lu Yuan had just started his lecture.

In order not to disturb Lu Yuan's lecture, the two of them listened outside the classroom for the entire morning.

Do you understand then?

It was obvious that even though Lu Yuan explained it very carefully, the two of them still only had a vague understanding of it.

But it doesn't matter that these two people have only half the knowledge.

It would be fine as long as the other people who take Lu Yuan’s class don’t have a half-understanding.

Others are in much better shape.

The reason is that the others have farmed before, but Li Qingluan and Zhao Qiaoer have never farmed before.

If he couldn't even distinguish the seeds of grains, then he certainly wouldn't understand much after listening for the whole morning.

And it’s different for other people.

Some people are already discussing what Lu Yuan just said while eating. This is exactly what Lu Yuan wants, everyone gets together to discuss when they have nothing to do.

Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang.

If you don’t understand the discussion, just keep the question and ask Lu Yuan after class every day.

While everyone was discussing, they would occasionally glance at Lu Yuan who was concentrating on eating.

Their eyes were full of respect.

After all, this matter was too shocking.

Of course, no one fully understood what Lu Yuan just said, so naturally, they didn’t know whether what Lu Yuan said was right or not.

But some of what Lu Yuan said were understood by everyone.

Through this, everyone knew that Lu Yuan was not talking nonsense.

That's really amazing, how come the boss of this guild knows everything?

We all came from the factory.

Everyone knows that the improved lathes and products in the workshop were all designed by the master.

For a moment, everyone had nothing but admiration for Lu Yuan.

At this time, Li Qingluan and Zhao Qiaoer were sitting opposite Lu Yuan, one was busy picking up food for Lu Yuan, and the other was busy serving soup to Lu Yuan.

The two were really heartbroken.

I asked you to come out without eating breakfast this morning, so you must be starving now, right?
"Hey, eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you."

Li Qingluan said quickly while picking up some food for Lu Yuan.

Aunt Qiaoer, who was standing by, couldn't help but shook her head when she saw this scene. She said tenderly:
“This little thing always eats like this.

I still remember when I was in the mines, it was the same. I would choke while eating.”

As she was talking, Aunt Qiaoer recalled the look of fear on Lu Yuan's face when he was in the cave in the mine.

It has been almost half a year without me noticing, and now this little thing is not afraid of me at all, and is very fierce~
Lu Yuan didn't respond to this, but suddenly thought of something, and quickly looked up at the two wives in front of him and said:

"By the way, we need to send someone to buy the land."

land?
What place?

Both of them looked at Lu Yuan with curiosity.

Then Lu Yuan said:

“People who come to work here, don’t they all have land originally?
Now that they have come here, they definitely won’t go back to farm, so let’s buy their land.

It's called buying, but in fact you can just come here and go through the procedures."

This land is the livelihood of the people.

All farmers hope to have a piece of land of their own.

But land can sometimes become a burden to the people.

For example, in the last years of a dynasty, land would become a burden and encumbrance to the people.

Whenever a dynasty came to an end, the imperial court would increase the tax burden significantly.

Sometimes you may still owe the court money after farming for a year.

What to do if they can’t pay enough food? Of course they can only run away and become refugees.

Because the land is there, whether you plant it or not.

Regardless of whether there is a flood or a drought this year, the tax burden cannot be reduced.

Of course, normally the imperial court would reduce it as appropriate.

But as long as the land belongs to you, you have to pay taxes every year.

What if we don’t farm and have no food?
That means paying the money, of course.

The compensation will be based on the market price of one kilogram of japonica rice.

But for the workers who come to work in the factory, their land is now a burden.

Because their land itself is not valuable and is located in a remote corner.

And they don't farm anymore, they have better places to go now.

How can working on this kind of land be as good as working in a factory where you can get a guaranteed harvest regardless of drought or flood?

So they can only leave the land there for nothing, and have to pay a considerable amount of money for it every year.

If the guild is willing to take over now, it would be the best thing for them.

In this way, the land falls into the hands of the guild, and the guild will be responsible for paying taxes in the future. It has nothing to do with them.

When the time comes, we will just go through the process and symbolically give one acre of land for one cent to the Yanxiang Society.

So almost no one would be unwilling to do this.

What did Lu Yuan want the land for? Of course, he wanted to plant it himself.

In particular, the crops to be planted in the future will be those with very high yields per mu.

This can make a lot of money.

Of course, this is not just about money, it’s about keeping your own job in your own hands.

As for who will farm the land at that time, this is naturally the large-scale mechanized planting mentioned earlier.

Li Qingluan and Zhao Qiaoer nodded immediately and sent someone to do it after dinner.

After dinner, Lu Yuan led everyone directly to class.

In the afternoon, just as Lu Yuan had thought before, he led his men to start the formal operation.

There were many classes on the first day, and they were not finished until around eight or nine in the evening.

It’s time for everyone to go back to their own homes and find their own mothers.

Today, the two women in the family stayed with Lu Yuan all day, and also watched with the students throughout the afternoon.

After Lu Yuan got on the carriage, he sat between the two women. Just as he was about to say something, he remembered something.

Lu Yuan immediately came to the window of the carriage, looked at the students coming out of the classroom and shouted:
“If you don’t understand what I learned today, you should discuss it with others.

There will be exams starting from tomorrow, and those who perform poorly or rank last will be eliminated.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that if you are eliminated you will never have any chance in this life.

But at least you don’t have a chance this time, you can only wait for the next one.”

These students who came out of the classroom, looking thoughtful, nodded repeatedly after hearing Lu Yuan's words.

Some people are a little nervous, while others don't seem to care.

There must be people who are interested in what Lu Yuan talked about today and want to continue learning.

Of course, there are definitely people who are not interested and just want to become a third-level worker.

But these don’t matter to Lu Yuan, because there will be exams every day anyway.

If you are interested in this area, you will naturally communicate more with others and learn more on your own.

That way you will get better grades in the exam.

If you have no interest and just want to become a third-level worker, you will definitely be eliminated in the end.

Just as Lu Yuan finished speaking and was about to close the window and go home to eat and sleep.

Someone outside the car looked at Lu Yuan curiously and asked:

"Teacher...Principal, if hybrid breeding can really be successful.

So how much can the per-acre yield of hybrid potatoes and sweet potatoes be increased?"

This afternoon, the way these people addressed me changed from "Master" to "Principal".

Of course, this was Lu Yuan’s own request.

After all, being called the principal is definitely more exciting than being called master.

What's more, Lu Yuan is the principal.

After this student asked this question, the people around him stopped and looked at Lu Yuan with curiosity.

Everyone is curious. It is said that the yield of crops bred through hybridization will increase significantly per mu, but to what extent will it increase?
Everyone is very curious.

Lu Yuan, who was sitting in the carriage, thought about it and said seriously:
"Take sweet potatoes as an example. In the future, the yield per mu can be increased to 3,000 kilograms."

“Of course, if it can be combined with fertilizers, scientific planting methods, and time.

Later on, the yield per mu will increase to 5,000 to 6,000 kilograms. If it is in a high-yield area, it is possible to reach tens of thousands of kilograms.

However, don't aim too high. Let me teach you the basics first.

I will teach you something else later."

After Lu Yuan finished speaking, the entire scene fell silent.

How much more?!

Yield per mu... 10,000... 10,000 jin? ! ! (End of this chapter)
