Chapter 1203: Huge Market

Generally speaking, in the Jiangnan region, the harvest period of winter wheat is at the end of May and the beginning of June. However, the wheat seeds planted in the seed base have been processed by the demon refining pot, so the harvest period has also been much earlier.

By the time Xiao Ping arrived at the seed base, the wheat was basically ripe, and the workers were preparing to start harvesting. Seeing that Xiao Ping personally came to care about the wheat harvest, Chen Lan and the other workers in the seed base were deeply encouraged, and the big guys were more motivated. With Chen Lan's order, the workers soon threw themselves into the work of harvesting wheat.

Last year, the amount of wheat planted in the seed base was not large, and so many workers worked together to harvest all the wheat in one day.

What follows, of course, is a series of standard procedures, starting with drying the wheat and ending with threshing, and naturally there are workers who take care of this qiΔ“ properly.

After a few days, it was finally time to weigh in on everyone's top concerns. Because of last year's rice harvest, both Chen Lan and other workers seemed relatively calm.

After weighing the weight of the control group and the new variety of wheat, he announced to everyone with a smile on his face: "The yield of winter wheat per mu in the control group is 1,600 catties!" The yield per mu of our Xianhu brand wheat seeds is 2,250 catties, which is a full increase of 40%! ”

Although they had long been prepared for the increase in wheat production, everyone was overjoyed to hear the number jΓΉ reported by Xiao Ping. The people present, including Chen Lan, were all from rural areas, so they naturally knew what it meant that a wheat seed could increase the yield per mu by 40%. Even if the quality of the flour milled from this wheat is very average, the majority of grain farmers will rush to it, after all, such a high yield is too tempting.

For a time, all the workers cheered with joy. Those who can participate in the management of grain fields. They are all veteran grain farmers who can witness the birth of a high-yield wheat. It undoubtedly has a very important meaning for them.

Chen Lan was also very happy, she looked at Xiao Ping beside her with a flushed face. My heart is full of love for this capable man. If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were still in public, Chen Lan would definitely throw herself into Xiao Ping's arms and express her feelings for him with actions.

Xiao Ping also did not expect that the increase in wheat yield was one percent higher than that of rice, and this result also surprised him a little. I have to say that the demon refining pot is indeed a magical treasure, and it can always bring all kinds of surprises.

Of course, this good news should be told to Mr. Chen first, if it weren't for the strong support of his old man, maybe Xiao Ping would not have set foot in the grain industry now. So Xiao Ping smiled at Chen Lan beside him first, and then directly dialed Long Wu's phone.

"What's the matter?" Long Wu still spoke concisely and clearly as before. After the phone was connected, only three words were spoken.

"The wheat in the seed base has been harvested, and I am reporting the yield to Mr. Chen." Xiao Ping smiled and said to Long Wu: "Excuse me, tell Mr. Chen, the situation is even better than expected, the yield of Xianhu brand wheat is forty percent higher than that of the control group!" ”

Listening to the number reported by Xiao Ping, even Long Wu, who had always been calm, was a little excited, and hurriedly asked, "Is this number accurate?" ”

Xiao Ping replied categorically: "Of course it is accurate, I was present during the entire harvesting process, and I personally weighed both kinds of wheat!" ”

Knowing that Xiao Ping would not do anything about this kind of thing, Long Wu followed and said lightly: "Okay." I'll report this to Mr. Chen, goodbye! ”

After saying this "goodbye", Long Wu hung up the phone without waiting for Xiao Ping to speak. Knowing that he was such a character, Xiao Ping didn't take it to heart. After putting down the phone with a smile, he whispered to Chen Lan: "It is indeed not bad to increase the yield by forty percent, but it is still a little far from my expectations, as the person in charge of the seed base." You must be punished! ”

Of course, Chen Lan knew what Xiao Ping's so-called "punishment" was, but she didn't mean to defend herself at all. Instead, he glanced at him amorous and whispered: "I do have negligence in management, and I am willing to accept punishment." ”

I am very satisfied with Chen Lan's attitude. Xiao Ping laughed quietly: "Then you just wait, I will punish you well when I get off work!" ”

A 40 per cent increase in wheat production is a very important event for any country, which can significantly improve the country's food security. So Chen Lao was also very happy when he learned about this, and he didn't wait long for him to call in person to congratulate Xiao Ping.

"Xiao Xiao, this time you did a good job!" Chen Lao praised Xiao Ping positively, and then said to him happily: "If the country's grain output per mu can increase by at least 30%, counting the areas in the south that have two or even three crops per year, the country's food security can be better guaranteed, and maybe in a few years, we will change from a grain importer to an exporter!" ”

Although Xiao Ping agreed with Chen Lao's words, he also knew that the more he was at such a time, the more he had to be low-key, so he just said very modestly: "Old Chen, you have won the award." However, the increase in yield by 40% is only the number of seed bases, and I think we should wait until the other trial sites have been harvested before we can get the final results. ”

Xiao Pingsheng's attitude of not being arrogant or discouraged made Chen Lao very satisfied, and he nodded again and again: "Well, you do have a point. I will ask them to summarize the number of each trial point and give it to you, so that you can have a bottom in your heart. ”

"Then I'll thank you in advance." Xiao Ping smiled and said to Chen Lao: "By the way, in a few days, Long Wu will come to me to get the health oral liquid, I am going to prepare some new wheat flour for him to take back by the way, please taste it and see how it tastes." ”

"Well, I want to know if such a high-yielding wheat variety tastes good!" Chen Lao agreed, and then hung up the phone.

In the next few days, Xiao Ping stayed in the seed base, on the one hand, he was concerned about the harvesting of wheat, and on the other hand, he also used this time to put many unprocessed seeds in the seed warehouse into the demon refining pot for processing. After all, there are many seeds in the seed warehouse that are to be sold directly, and they must be processed in time.

Of course, since Xiao Ping stayed in the seed base, he naturally had to make love to Chen Lan at night. Under the joint nourishment of Xiao Ping and the health oral liquid, the pretty widow has become more and more refreshing. Today's Chen Lan has both the charm of a mature woman and the delicacy of a girl, which can always make Xiao Ping indulge in her gentle countryside and unable to extricate herself.

After Xiao Ping stayed at the seed base for a few days, Long Wu also came to meet him with the information collected from other trial planting sites. After Long Wu left with the health oral liquid and flour specially prepared for Chen Lao, Xiao Ping couldn't wait to check the information he had brought.

In addition to the one trial site in the far north that has not yet started harvesting wheat, more than a dozen other trial sites scattered throughout the country have already completed the harvesting work.

Xiao Ping was deeply pleased that no matter where these trial sites were located, the yield per mu was significantly higher than that of the control group. Although there is a slight difference in the proportion of improvement due to the different management levels, the production is generally increased by three and a half, and the highest even reaches four and a half! And on average, the yield per mu of wheat seeds treated by the TongguΓ² refining demon pot is 38% higher than that of ordinary wheat seeds! ”

Xiao Ping was very satisfied with this number. Nowadays, the work of grain breeding has been carried out very perfectly, especially in recent decades, all kinds of high-yield varieties have emerged one after another, and grain output has been greatly improved. It can even be said that the current process of cultivating high-yielding grain varieties has reached a bottleneck, and it is difficult to breed varieties that can significantly increase yields as before.

In this case, even if you breed a new variety that can increase yields by 5%, it is a great thing. What's more, the yield of Xianhu brand wheat seeds can increase by nearly forty percent, which can be described as a "miracle".

What's more, Xiao Ping and the others in the seed base had already tasted the flour milled from the new variety of wheat two days ago. Everyone agrees that this flour tastes good and makes a very chewy pasta, which is better than all the flours on the market.

Everyone is confident that this high-yielding, good-tasting wheat variety will quickly take over the seed market. At that time, the whole country and even the world will plant "Xianhu" brand wheat seeds, and it makes people feel enthusiastic when they think about it.

Since it was determined that the "Xianhu" brand wheat seeds could greatly increase the yield, the next thing to do was to plant a large area to obtain more wheat seeds to be marketed. However, when it comes to choosing where to grow more wheat seeds, Xiao Ping has encountered some problems.

After all, wheat is the world's largest grain with the largest planting area, the highest yield, and the largest trading volume, and the number of seeds required is naturally the largest. From the perspective of development, in the future, "Xianhu" brand wheat seeds will not only be supplied to the domestic market, but will even occupy a large market in the world.

In order to meet such a huge market, of course, a wheat seed breeding base with sufficient scale is also needed. However, in terms of the domestic land ownership system, it is not easy to obtain such a large amount of land.

Xiao Ping thought about it for a long time, and finally gave up the plan to set up a wheat cultivation base in China. After weighing the pros and cons, he felt that it would be more appropriate to set up a wheat seed breeding base abroad. In this way, it will not only be easier to obtain a sufficient area of land, but also more beneficial to the long-term and stable operation of the base.

Since the wheat cultivation base is to be set up abroad, the first choice is of course the United States. As we all know, that country is a big wheat grower, and there is a large area of land for wheat cultivation. Moreover, Xiao Ping already has a large ranch there, and it is not difficult to buy another piece of land as a base for cultivating wheat seeds.

With such an idea, Xiao Ping and the reluctant Chen Lan said goodbye and flew directly to the other side of the ocean by private jet. (To be continued......)
