The first to complete the cotton picking, is a thin man, his thin stature, agile movements, in the cotton picking, very fast, almost with a large advantage, won the first place, he also got the first picking to complete the reward, two bags of white noodles.

He is a simple Northeast man, with a knowing smile on his black and thin face, but after taking the white noodles, he threw it aside, and it only took half a day to complete the picking of an acre of land.

The movements of the black and thin man, the people who saw it, nodded heartily, and then paid attention to the cotton he picked, the cotton field was collected, these cotton's were also placed very neatly, a bag, obviously, this cotton picker is a meticulous one.

A bag of wrapped cotton, I have to say that these cotton peaches grow very well, whether it is in appearance or weight, one is much larger than ordinary cotton peaches, at a glance, you know, it should be high-yielding, but how to do it, or let the data speak.

In front of everyone's eyes, all the cotton peaches were weighed one by one, and there were special personnel to record the quantity, and the number was recorded again and again, and the recorder calculated nervously, and soon, the results came out, and the recorder shouted: "307 catties and 3 taels!"

"300, over 300!" There was an exclamation around, the reason why cotton is expensive is that it is an important cash crop, and the yield per mu is not high, and those who have planted cotton in Los Angeles before know that the yield of cotton is about 60-80 catties, and occasionally there is a high one, which may reach more than 90 catties, but more than 300 catties is a dream number.

"Could it be cheating?" said a small landowner, in a low voice.

"Stupid, how can you cheat in front of everyone!" said a steady, earnest voice.

"yes. One acre of land is easy to do, but what about the rest, these 210 hectares, and only one acre is counted!" said another landlord with a smile. By the way, he quipped: "If you can cheat, you can show me!"

All living beings are diverse, but most of the landlords believe in this data, you know, they have calculated the size and density of cotton peaches before, and roughly produced a yield, which must be more than 200, or even more than 220. It is not clear how much it can be exceeded, but now, it has exceeded so much at once. Some landlords who had been prepared for a long time began to think in their hearts. If you stop picking cotton, you will either hand over your land to the reclamation company.

Among the landlords, Hou Jinsheng stood there silently, just calculating the yield per mu, he stood in the outer circle, seemingly inattentive, in fact. But he was engrossed, when the figure of 307 catties came out, he was also excited, and he was also a big buyer of cotton plants from the reclamation company, and he bought more than 30 acres from the reclamation company. The cotton planting experts at home also specially came to wait for the 30 acres of land, and the final results were good, a little more than 180 pounds per acre, and the cotton was removed early.

The cotton yield is about 24%, which is almost a quarter, which is much higher than the original Los Angeles cotton, one-sixth of the cotton yield.

45 catties of lint per acre, 30 acres, almost 1400 catties, these cotton, a small part, he used it for his own use, the rest, most of them were sold, because it was sold early, plus most of the cotton was sold to the northeast, it was sold at a good price, the price of cotton is an average of three or four cents per catty, more than 1,000 catties, and three or four hundred oceans were recovered at once, which is not without a small supplement.

In Hou Jinsheng's view, the 30 acres of land that he carefully served should be stronger than the 210 acres of extensive management of the reclamation company, but the real result surprised him, the large-scale planting of the reclamation company is actually higher than his 30 acres of intensive cultivation, and the yield is 100 catties higher than his.

An extra 100 catties represents about 25 catties of lint, and the increased value, even after deducting all aspects of the cost, and 50% of the extraction by the reclamation company Once included in the system of the reclamation company, his planting area is not 30 acres now, but thousands of hectares, which is a huge number, just a cotton project can get millions of benefits every year, and he, the landlord, really found a gold mine.

Luohe and Liu Shu, from the first place picking, carefully paid attention to everyone's expressions, the final result came out, it must be shocking, it seems that next year, even this year's winter wheat planting, the amount of land owned by the reclamation company, will go to a new level, especially Hou Jinsheng's expression, although he tried his best to hide it, but in his eyes, the light showed, proved that he was definitely tempted.

After weighing this acre of cotton, almost 10 minutes of effort, another person completed the picking, he won the second place, got a bag of white noodles, the third place is a small bag, and then there is no more, he is the same as the first place, he did not care about the joy, and put into the tense cotton picking, relative to the reward, or a real acre of land 1 yuan to the reality.

The empty field full of cotton bales, once again full of people, the good deeds once again took the cotton aside to weigh, this time a little less, 301 catties, barely climbed to 300 catties, even the most hesitant landlord, the eyes also began to be moved, two fields, far apart, almost more than a mile, two cotton pickers, also casually found, before, no one knew that the two people were the fastest cotton picking, such two results, should be very representative.

The cotton pickers in the back, the speed is about the same, within 5 minutes of the end of the second, the third is over, he also got the last reward, a small bag, about 5 catties of white noodles, although not much, but enough for a family to eat a meal of dumplings, which in the early 20th century in northwest China, this is already an excellent and excellent improvement of life.

The yield per mu of the third one fell a little, it was 298, and then, 295, 298, 278, 285, and other data were reported one by one, and more were completed, and even one after another. Everyone is concentrated in this time period to complete, half a day of one acre of land, which is basically the efficiency of the most skilled group of workers.

There are still a lot of good deeds, and everyone wants to see them. What is the average yield per mu, tirelessly, weighing again and again, the latter is slightly inaccurate, after all, it is not a small bag of weighing, the pressure of large bags and large bags, and the total number is calculated at the fastest speed.

Rao is the lowest, there is no less than 275 catties, and the high is not higher than 310 catties, in short. The yield of cotton is relatively concentrated, and the fluctuation is not large, when tested in different places, at least more than 100 acres of yield, even the best people. Don't say much, anyone can see that the bumper harvest of cotton in Los Angeles is already a certainty, even if the average is less than 300 catties, it is almost the same as 4 acres of ordinary cotton fields. Even higher yield, such a cash crop, is really planted, although I don't know what the cotton yield is, can be estimated according to the usual 2 percent, fast 60 pounds of lint. At least 20 yuan, this is a real silver dollar, an acre of land continues to produce so much, in a few years, you can buy an acre of land. This profit is also too high.

The small landlords are excited, if it is not for the unfamiliarity with Liu Shuluohe, they will even have to move forward and sign an agreement with the reclamation company, even if they plant one season of cotton a year, throw out all kinds of expenses, even if they deduct 50% of the reclamation company, they also have an income of more than 10 yuan per acre of land, which is often hundreds of acres, or even thousands of acres of landlords, this money, absolutely a lot, the landlord is not short of food and drink, but just lack of money, cotton is a cash crop, at the moment it is the most profitable.

Yang Yue is still busy, he carefully records every data, even if it is picked, it is no exception, looking for direction from the carefully selected specimens. He is not concerned about the cotton yield itself, but more concerned about some changes in cotton plants, which is also one of his new topics, at this time, he has taken another path from the Luohe River, no longer from the changes in the cotton itself, but more concerned about the changes of plants under the conditions of fertilizer and water. How much fertilizer will promote the change of plants, genetics, or the evolution of the plant itself, these are the directions of Yang Yue's research.

It was at this moment that Yang Yue felt that there was no helper, at this time, the entire Los Angeles, that is, some personnel, could have some help for him, and the rest was to record the data, fortunately, Yang Yue was not in a hurry, and the next few of his classmates were about to come over, according to the previous statement, at this time, it should have arrived at SH, or even along the Yangtze River, all the way west, it is estimated that it will be almost to Wuhan.

John, who was in the same dormitory at the time, had a similar level, and studied under the same professor together, was also on the way here, I don't know how he was doing, it seems that Harpy said that he was not doing very well, to be honest, Yang Yue also found that he had made great progress in all aspects for more than a year, and John might be shocked by his achievements when he came.

The picking of cotton has come to an end, at this time the yield is no longer calculated, piles of cotton, need to be stacked together, cotton yield has to wait for the cotton to dry out, after the cotton is removed, it can come out.

210 hectares of land, the average yield is 292.38 catties, the total output, more than 6 million catties, this is the first data, such a yield, in this era, can definitely be called high yield, the most important thing is that he saw the back of the cotton rate, at 30.1%, this number, with 30% This percentage, only increased by 0.1, represents the increase in the cotton yield of mainland cotton, you know, mainland cotton is generally between 23-28, a full increase of 2 percentage points, breaking the 30 mark.

The output has increased substantially, and the cotton yield has also increased, which represents the output of Los Angeles this time will be greatly improved, a little calculation, the lint output per mu of land, about 88 catties, and an income of 30 yuan, will allow the reclamation company to directly obtain hundreds of thousands of funds, which is good for the two landlords, or even the four families, will not expect that there will be so much, the most important thing is that they do not need to sell cotton directly, the real value is still to produce something, from cotton to veil, and then to cotton cloth, this value will gradually rise, on the price of 14 pounds of 15 cotton cloth, the wholesale price of 6.9 yuan, on averageThe value of cotton will be close to 0.45, which is absolutely amazing.

This is the scientific planting method, the benefits of centralization, mechanized use, the average investment per mu is huge, labor, fertilizer, seeds, and even the final picking, to invest at least 7 yuan or more, but the net profit of 23 yuan, proves that the land, in the case of good management, can also create rich value.

Over there, Yang Yue also finished the simple recording and calculation work, and walked back with a smile on his face, no wonder he was happy, the first time he intervened in the project, to a certain extent, has obtained a huge improvement, he is sure, in the next year, he will be based on the basic characteristics of cotton, with scientific methods, further processing, when the time, the yield of this cotton, will be on this basis, to get improved.

The most important thing is that he will select the best cotton seeds from the middle according to the current cotton seeds, and I believe that after a year of planting, this batch of cotton seeds, to a certain extent, should have adapted to the environment of the Northeast, so that the carefully selected ones are relatively full, to a certain extent, it is better than the mainland cotton, as long as the scientific selection and breeding, to a certain extent, the yield will still be improved.

"It seems to be very good, Yang Yue, thanks to your efforts!" Luo He said with real emotion.
