Jizhong, agricultural demonstration base.

There is a vast plain in Ji, it is a large grain-producing province since ancient times, and it is bordered by the Bohai Sea in the east, the imperial capital in the inner ring, the Taihang in the west, and the Yanshan Mountain in the north.

This base was already in the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, but a year ago it was secretly expanded and security measures were added, and it became a national-level scientific research center.

"Crunch!"

Two cars came from a distance and stopped in front of a building that resembled a greenhouse, and as soon as the door opened, an old man stepped down.

"Welcome to the chief's visit!" Several responsible persons who were already waiting at the door hurriedly greeted them.

"Okay, I'm here today to see the results, go in and say. The old man looked serious, strode away by himself, and went inside.

The rest of the people hurriedly followed, and led them to the No. 1 scientific research area, through the thick glass, inside was a culture material covered with hoarfrost, which was full of fat gray oyster mushrooms.

"In the countryside, it's the size of one acre of land. It takes about 45 days for the normal oyster mushroom to harvest the first crop, and then every 15-20 days. After our repeated trials, the cycle is basically stabilized at 20 days, and the yield per mu can reach 20,000 catties. ”

The expert sighed as he spoke, and said: "This strain is good, I have studied mushrooms all my life, and I have never seen such an active strain...... Oh, look over there!"

He reacted and led the old man to another test shed.

The painting style here is more peculiar, what fungus, white fungus, shiitake mushrooms, chicken leg mushrooms and so on bloom everywhere, and the most conspicuous is undoubtedly a giant mushroom in the middle.

The roots drill out of the soil, and from the bottom of the dozen flowers, forming a large mushroom circle, the mushroom cap is like an umbrella, large and involuted, standing in the middle like a small white jungle.

"This is the giant mushroom that we found in Luoqiping Village in Tengchong at the beginning of the year, and we collected the spores and replanted it, and the volume is even larger than the prototype. This plant is 103 cm tall, the largest cap is 37 cm in diameter, and the growth cycle is extremely short, from the emergence of hyphae to maturity in just a few days. ”

"Is it edible?"

"Well, we tried a few, and the taste is not very good, but it is confirmed that it is non-toxic. ”

The person in charge waved and sent a small plate of processed shredded mushrooms, and the old man did not hesitate, picked up a few and chewed them in his mouth.

The shredded mushroom was slightly sweet at first, and then a little numb, like the feeling of accidentally swallowing a pepper, and after a while, there was a burst of soft meat.

"Yes, it can be used as a main course, and it can also be seasoned. ”

The old man nodded, knowing in his heart, and then turned to Area 2.

This piece is planted with potatoes, maybe N stubble, this stubble has not been harvested, it is all green seedlings. However, the expert took several samples and said with some shame: "We have tested many times, but we still can't quickly increase the yield, and the current best batch has a yield of about 1.4 tons per mu." The alienated varieties we found were helpful in taste and had less of a significant effect on yield. ”

"You have done your best, and you need not be anxious. ”

The old man comforted him, but he was also helpless.

It is said that the United Nations has long listed potatoes as one of the four major staple foods, and has given a guarantee of staple food status in planting area and scientific research, but its situation in Xia has always been very embarrassing.

You must know that 75% of the staple food in China's key poverty alleviation counties is potatoes, but the government does not pay attention to it at all, there is almost no project support, and the planting area is constantly reduced.

Around 2005, the national potato planting area dropped sharply from 80 million mu to 60 million mu, and now it has barely recovered to more than 80 million mu.

There is also the yield, the average yield per mu in Xia is 1 ton, which has been maintained for more than 30 years. In foreign countries, it can reach more than two tons per mu, and the gap is quite large.

The reason for this is that the results of hybrid rice in China are too brilliant, which to a certain extent covers up some crises.

"Don't worry, the country will introduce policies in the near future, and I will give you a thorough understanding first. ”

The old man patted the expert on the shoulder and said: "Starting from this year, potatoes will be included in the grain reserve system, and it is planned that within three years, the planting area will be expanded to 180 million mu, the yield per mu will be increased to more than 2 tons, and all kinds of foods based on potato flour will be comprehensively promoted." ”

Ho!

Overjoyed! As soon as these words came out, all the experts present were excited.

The common people don't understand, they know the meaning too well: if the current environment continues, within a few years, the increase in food demand in Xia will reach more than 100 billion catties!

However, due to the constraints of cultivated land resources and the influence of alienated varieties, the wheat family is estimated to be completely wiped out, and the corn family is surviving, and only lovely potatoes are cold-tolerant, drought-tolerant, and barren, and it is just around the corner to break away from the vegetable world.

Not to mention potato flour, which can not only be used to make steamed bread, noodles, rice noodles, bread, etc., but also has a storage period of up to 15-20 years.

Tsk, it's a rhythm that simply saves all of humanity.

After reading the potatoes, everyone accompanied the old man to inspect other scientific research areas, including poultry, livestock, forest trees, flowers and plants, as well as key crops such as cotton, sesame, sugarcane, rubber, etc.

The core is to collect alienated varieties from all over the world, cultivate and test them, enhance quality or increase yield, all in preparation for the future.

For example, in the category of meat food, experts found that there is a kind of alienated rat and rabbit, the mouse fur is dark yellow, and the rabbit is spotted, all of which are tender and tender, and the fecundity is super strong, and it has been widely distributed in the northern and southern provinces.

Not surprisingly, the creatures, named the yellow rat and the spotted rabbit, would be the main source of meat in the future.

After a long time, there was still one last area, which was different from other places, but it was a large open rice field, and an old man wearing boots and trouser legs was bent over to work in the field.

When the chief saw it, he immediately became a little more solemn - it was none other than the old man who was known as the contemporary Shennong.

…………

To tell the truth, even if potatoes will play a major role in the future, the grain of Xia is still rice at all. Thirty-six provinces, except for Qingning Province, the rest are all rice cultivation, and there are 198 million rice farmers in the country, more than 700 million people!

What is this specific gravity?

Therefore, no matter how arduous it is, rice cannot be wasted, and it must be overcome.

In fact, sometimes I think about it, the government is also very complicated, and a new era is coming, and there are countless problems and anxiety. But they are also very glad that it is not a sudden death method, and there is still enough time to prepare.

With less land to live in, less arable land, and maybe 90 percent of the population concentrated in urban agglomerations, there are two top priorities: food and housing.

If you have food to eat and a house to live in, you can maintain stability.

"Old Yuan, don't hide it, the grain area of Heishui Province is finished!"

The chief retired from his subordinates and walked in the fields with the old man, when the other party was in power, he was already famous throughout the country, and he had seen many big names, so he didn't have anything to do.

"Finished?"

The old man was stunned and muttered: "That's 70 million tons of grain!"

"Yes, 70 million tons! It's still snowing there, and it's going to expand, and some of the grain-producing areas have been encroached upon, and we've taken soil samples, and even if the snow melts next year, we can't cultivate it." ”

The chief paused and continued: "There is also the area of Dongting Lake in southern Shonan, according to our observations, the lake water has risen suddenly this year, and the lake area has spread, which has affected many residents. It is estimated that it will continue to expand in the future, and it will be difficult to protect the grain area over there. ”

Xia has nine major grain production bases: Taihu Plain, Dongting Lake Plain, Bashu Plain, Pearl River Delta, Jianghan Plain, Jianghuai Region, Poyang Lake Plain, Songnen Plain and Sanjiang Plain.

This is good, click and go to the two!

“……”

The news was bad news, the atmosphere was solemn, the two of them walked away without a word, and the chief smiled and said, "Okay, I'm not complaining today, the main thing is to listen to your good news." You've been working hard for more than a year, what have you achieved?"

"Since last year, you have found four alienated wild rice plants. We cultivated and cultivated at the same time at four bases, and this harvested another batch. Here are three acres of land, which are 1581 kg, 1529 kg and 1536 kg, with an average yield of 1548.66 kg per mu. The other three pieces are 1503 kg, 1538 kg, 1545 kg. ”

The old man is 87 years old, and his words have a common sense of ambiguity among the elderly, but he is sober-minded, well-organized, and has a lot of data on rice at his fingertips.

"More than 1,500 per mu?"

The chief was overjoyed, properly breaking the world record, and hurriedly asked: "Is this the final result?"

"No, it's just No. 2 rice, and there is potential for improvement. ”

The old man hesitated for a moment and said: "I can't say the specifics, I don't know much about the world now, but according to this development, you may be able to find better wild rice, and at that time, there should be a greater breakthrough." ”

It's more euphemistic, but the chief is clear in his heart, thinking that when he strode away from idle nonsense, he was often chattering about the yield of 10,000 catties per mu or something, and it will really not be a dream in the future!

He didn't doubt the other party's words, people have created countless miracles, and in ancient times, they were people who wanted to seal gods and build temples.

"What about the seawater rice, how is the harvest?" he asked again.

"According to the data of the Jiaodong base, under the condition of salt concentration of 3-8‰ seawater irrigation and planting, the yield can reach 300 kg. We should be glad that the 280 million acres of saline-alkali land have not changed much, otherwise we will not be able to do anything. The old man sighed.

"Yes, yes!"

The chief is simply a mess, and he has been so bad for several days, but he finally has good news. If the seawater rice technology is mature, based on 200-300 kilograms per mu of saline-alkali land, the country alone can increase grain production by 50 billion kilograms.

And there are 14.3 billion acres of saline-alkali land in the world!

It is not only beneficial to human beings, but also plays a huge role in the game between countries, the exchange of interests, and the struggle for the right to speak.

Nowadays, there is a pessimistic trend in the domestic academic circles, believing that the revival of the aura will gradually degrade the power of science. As a result, the old man slapped his face with rice, although science is temporarily useless for cultivation, but in terms of the national economy and people's livelihood, it is still irreplaceable!

These rice rice are different from Lingmi.

Lingmi has extremely high requirements for the environment, and with the current experience, only nodes can be planted. The production of spiritual rice is too small, the nature is too precious, and it has a class distinction in itself, and it is destined to be a special supply for the upper class.

After chatting for a long time, the two returned from the field.

Everyone was sent to the door, and the old man was just about to get into the car, when he suddenly wiped his body again, held the old man's hand, and said, "Please!"

Then, another expert, "Please!"

"Please!"

He wasn't pretentious, he was in a critical situation. Those people were also infected, and finally the head of the base shook it heavily:

"Please rest assured that the country is nothing more than doing its best and dying!"

…………

After more than two years of research and deliberation, the Xia government finally began a major national policy move.

On October 23, the government released a "Xia Country Urban and Land Master Plan", each of which is a fundamental decision that will affect more than a billion people, bring blessings or disasters to future generations, and break the existing system.

First:

32 urban agglomerations will be built, namely the imperial capital-Jinmen-central Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta, the Jiaodong Peninsula, the Guanzhong Plain, the Bashu Rongyu, the Jinzhong, the central Guizhou, the central Yunnan, the northern slope of the Tianshan Mountains, and the central and southern Liaoning.

The hierarchy is divided into super urban agglomerations (such as the Yangtze River Delta), first-class urban agglomerations (such as the Rongyu area), second-class urban agglomerations (such as the central and southern Liaoning areas), and third-level urban agglomerations (such as the north of the Tianshan Mountains).

It is required that there should be no less than 3 metropolitan areas or large cities in the urban agglomeration, and at least 1 mega or mega city as the core. The population size is not less than 30 million, and the economic density is greater than 5 million yuan/square kilometer, etc.

Second:

The construction of 27 agricultural planting and breeding base groups, namely Ula Province, Liaodong Province, Henan Province, Anhui Province, Bashu, Jiaodong and so on. According to the performance classification, including commercial grain base, hot crop base, timber base and so on.

From now on, potatoes will be officially included in the national grain reserves, and in the case of the gradual decrease in the planting area of wheat and corn, all localities will steadily increase the land for potato planting, and support technical projects to increase production.

Third, and the most arousing frog sound:

From the date of implementation of the document, commercial land, residential land and all kinds of construction land in cities across the country will be prohibited from being approved one after another.

Fourth:

In areas that have been identified as uninhabitable, the local government will come up with a plan as soon as possible to organize the people to move to a safe place.

There are a number of other provisions, which are not listed in all of them.

It seems to be quite awkward, but it translates as follows:

First, it is not surprising that in the future, 90 percent of the population of Xia will have to live in these 32 urban agglomerations.

Second, in the future, the food supply of the common people of Xia Kingdom will have to rely on these 27 agricultural base groups.

Third, private developers can no longer buy land and build houses, and all of them are planned by the government and imperial businessmen.

Fourth, in areas where the scourge of alienated organisms is serious, we should quickly organize the mass transfer.

……

The actual grand strategy is, to put it bluntly: the city surrounds the countryside. As soon as this document came out, it caused a lot of discussion among netizens.

"Oh my God, are we going back to the days of the Tube Tower?"

"Hahaha, the developers and the real estate speculation group are all going to die...... However, Lao Tzu still can't afford to buy a house!"

The potato hanging silk counterattacked, and the sweet potato cried and fainted in the yam's arms. ”

This is a complaint, and a calm analysis:

"There's no way, there are more and more metamorphosed creatures, the armed forces are not open on average, and we have no ability to protect ourselves, so we can only move. But think about it, even if you concentrate in the city, it is not necessarily crowded. ”

"Ask upstairs for details. ”

"+1 please!"

"Excuse me +10086!"

"Because in the process, a lot of people will die ......"
