Wei Bao is not worried that after changing history, he will disappear in the changed history.

Now Wei Bao is familiar with this world, this is a real world, not an illusion, there are no such fantasy things.

Wei Bao is afraid of the uncontrollability after changing history, he doesn't know what will happen next, he is in the general direction, and he has a little bottom in his heart.

But no one told him what would happen to such a small change.

The fate of millions of Liao people, don't think about it for the time being, just this Liu Xingzuo that Wei Bao decided to meet, his history, Wei Bao is clear.

In the turbulent and turbulent times of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, in the face of the ever-changing situation around them, everyone must make choices for their future.

In the original history, after Chongzhen's death, there were still a large number of Ming Dynasty armed forces in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and the dragons were leaderless, and they all became warlords who supported the army and respected themselves for a while.

However, in the face of the surging Manchu iron cavalry, a sad scene happened, these generals who received the great favor of the Ming Dynasty, almost without exception, chose to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, and did not have the slightest nostalgia for their homeland.

Among these shameful generals, including the notorious Wu Sangui and other three feudatories, Kong Youde, the king of Dingnan, Jiang Yang, the general of Datong, Zuo Menggeng, the son of Zuo Liangyu, Li Chengdong, the general of Gao Jie, and the earlier Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao, and the chief soldier Zu Dashou.

In short, there were almost no generals who chose to fight to the death with the Qing soldiers, and they chose to be traitors one-sidedly, serving the enemy country, and raising a butcher's knife against their compatriots in their homeland.

This is not only the sorrow of Emperor Chongzhen, but also the sorrow of an era.

Integrity and morality are trampled and abandoned like dung, and these people only have interests and status in their eyes.

When the Eight Banners of Manchuria entered the customs in 1644, the soldiers who could fight were no more than 100,000 people, but they had to face no less than one million armed forces of the former Ming Dynasty and the remnants of the peasant army.

If these people were to fight to the death, it would only be a joke for the Manchus to take control of the Central Plains. However, due to the defection of hundreds of thousands of former Ming soldiers, the situation was reversed in an instant, and the strength of the Manchu Qing Dynasty increased greatly.

It can be said that most of the world of the Qing Dynasty was defeated by the generals of the Ming Dynasty.

However, on the side of the Qing Dynasty, there was also a rebel general, who rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, almost making the emperor angry to death.

This person is Liu Xingzuo.

In the thirty-third year of Wanli, Liu Xingzuo, who was a teenager, was captured and taken away in an attack by Nurhachi and became a slave of Houjin.

But because he was smart and clever, he was deeply loved by Nurhachi, and raised him to become a banner man and became a soldier of the Eight Banners.

In many battles, Liu Xingzuo was brave and good at fighting, repeatedly made military exploits, and was gradually promoted to deputy general, becoming a rare Han general in the Eight Banners Army.

struggled from a slave to a general, but Liu Xingzuo did not live happily. As he grew older, his longing for his homeland grew stronger. Seeing that the Manchu Eight Banners continued to attack the border of the Ming Dynasty, wantonly killing and looting, I was very disgusted in my heart. Catching up with Dai Shan, the owner of the Zhenghong Banner where he was, he had been discriminating against and oppressing him as a foreigner, Liu Xingzuo thought twice and decided to flee and return to the Ming Dynasty.

In 1623, he took advantage of the favorable opportunity of garrisoning Jinfu Erzhou to contact Yuan Keli, the governor of Denglai in the Ming Dynasty, and planned to lead the people of Erzhou to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and return to the Ming Dynasty.

But because he was informed, the plan failed. However, Nurhachi trusted him and tried his best to recognize that he was being coerced, so he did not hold him accountable too much.

Liu Xingzuo was not reconciled, he actively reported to the border army of the Ming Dynasty, and every time the Eight Banners were dispatched, he would deliver the news in advance.

In 1628, Liu Xingzuo no longer wanted to live and steal his life, and was determined to return to the Ming Dynasty. He devised a clever plan, pretending to self-immolate and die, deceived the Manchu officials who came to check the scene, and then fled incognito and fled alone to Mao Wenlong, the chief soldier of Phi Dao in the Ming Dynasty. But the old mother, wife and children were all left in the hands of the Manchus.

Huang Taiji and others did not know the inside story, but they were very sympathetic to the orphans and widows of the Liu family, and told them to treat the Liu family well. Unexpectedly, after Liu Xingzuo returned to the Ming Dynasty, he was not trusted by Mao Wenlong and was suspicious of him. Later, he went to Yuan Chonghuan again, but still no one paid attention to him. Liu Xingzuo was depressed.

It was not until Sun Chengzong of the Ming Dynasty was in charge of Liaodong that he was reused, and he was able to lead the army to fight on the battlefield and kill the enemy to serve the country.

Unfortunately, in an encounter not long after, Liu Xingzuo was shot dead by Qing soldiers in a fierce battle.

Many people in the Qing soldiers knew him, and when they saw him, they were greatly surprised, so they transported his body back to Shengjing and handed it over to Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji realized that he had been deceived, and in a fit of rage, he beheaded his family all over the house, leaving only a 70-year-old lady.

Poor Liu Xingzuo was devoted to Daming, but he was not trusted, and finally ended up miserable.

A person without a pattern will only go around the details at the end, and he is certainly not a good manager, and a good manager does not have to come to everything in person, but must have a pattern, a framework, and form a good team for them to execute.

After Wei Bao told Wang Qiuya that he was going to Fuzhou in person tomorrow, Wang Qiuya's eyes widened in surprise: "Childe wants to go in person?" No, it's too dangerous, now the population has fallen, just with the more than 500,000 people that Mao Wenlong should inherit, whether it is Weijiazhuang or Jinzhou Peninsula, there will be no shortage of people in the future, why do you have to get everyone to Jinzhou Peninsula and Weijiazhuang? ”

Wang Qiuya rarely vetoed Wei Bao's words so directly, this time she was really a little anxious, "No matter how important the population is, it can't be compared with the safety of Gongzi, and besides, Mao Wenlong can get so many people this year, and when it comes to next year, everyone outside the gate will know that under Gongzi's hands, they will not starve to death, they will be able to eat, and everyone will find a way to come." ”

"Qiu Ya, listen to me, judging from Mao Wenlong's attitude, this is a good opportunity, especially in the war between Liaodong, Jiannu and Dongjiang, whether there will be such a good opportunity in the future, I can't tell! Moreover, even if it is next year, if I am not active, people will still be tied to the territory of Liaodong and Jiannu, and the population of more than 500,000 people alone will not be worried in the short term, and we can do a lot of things. But in the long run, it's not enough! The main thing is that I am worried that if I fail to rescue these people this year, I will die in large numbers next year, and when I regret it in the future, it will be too late. Wei Bao patiently explained.

"No, no, no matter how many people die, it's not as valuable as Childe's life." Wang Qiuya's eyes were red, and tears slipped down in large pieces.

Wei Bao's heart warmed, no matter whether Wang Qiuya liked Zheng Zhongfei before or not, now that she has slept with herself, she is obviously devoted to herself, and she is her own woman.

Wei Bao took Wang Qiuya's hand, "I have made up my mind, I don't need to say more, don't worry too much, I am blessed with a great life, and besides, the way you are, not only can you not change anything, it can only make me feel uncomfortable and affect the quality of my work." ”

Wang Qiuya heard Wei Bao say this, and wiped her tears nervously: "Xiaobao, please, don't go, I didn't mean to make you sad, you just sit here and command, why do you have to go in person?" Is it okay to send someone? Liu Chunshi and the big head are coming soon, right? Send them! Didn't the two of them go to this kind of foreign affairs before? ”

Wei Bao smiled slightly: "But people want to see me by name, and they want me to go by myself, how can others replace me?" ”

"Wouldn't it be you to let Liu Chunshi pretend to be you? The other party hasn't seen you either. Wang Qiuya said childishly.

"Fool, isn't that dishonest? Isn't it a deception? Wei Bao smiled: "Even if you can hide it, how will you face others in the future?" Being honest is the most basic bottom line! Especially for people who are about to work together. ”

Wang Qiuya saw that Wei Bao insisted on going in person, and knew that the persuasion would not move, so she cried sadly.

Wei Bao held Wang Qiuya in his arms and let her sit on his lap, so that he could persuade her not to cry.

"Okay, you go and inform Lin Wenbiao and let him prepare! That's it. Wei Bao slapped Wang Qiuya's buttocks.

Wang Qiuya snorted, but her pink face was close to Wei Bao's face, her two arms were on Wei Bao's shoulders, and she was reluctant to get up, although she no longer objected, but her attitude was obvious, she just didn't want Wei Bao to go.

Wei Bao smiled and wanted to pick Wang Qiuya up, and the guard's report came from outside the door: "President, Steward Liu and Steward Fan have arrived." ”

Wei Bao responded and said softly to Wang Qiuya: "It's Liu Chunshi and Fan who are here, just to ask them how the summer harvest is going?" ”

"If the situation of the summer harvest is good, won't you have to go to Fuzhou in person?" Wang Qiuya hurriedly asked. She actually knew that the summer harvest must be good! Although the climatic conditions are still harsh, when Wei Bao and Wang Qiuya came, Weijiazhuang was already a patch of yellow wheat fields and rice fields, waiting for a bumper harvest!

The seeds brought by Wei Bao are the most bullish modern seeds, and they have been cultivated for many generations in modern times!

Wei Bao smiled: "If you are determined to go, you will go, don't worry about this matter anymore." Let's go. ”

Wang Qiuya reluctantly got up and went to the door to greet Liu Chunshi and Fan's big head.

Liu Chunshi and Fan Datou were already waiting in the courtyard to be summoned, and both of them were very happy to see Wang Qiuya, but they did not speak.

Now that the rules around the president are bigger, they don't dare to talk casually. In particular, Wang Qiuya is already the president's quasi-daughter.

Wang Qiuya said to the two: "Brother Chunshi, Brother Big Head, come in, the president wants to see you." ”

Liu Chunshi and Fan agreed with their heads and hurriedly went over with two big bags.

"What are these?" Wang Qiuya asked curiously, "Is it grain?" Just harvested in the summer? ”

Liu Chunshi said with a smile: "Qiu Ya is smart, she guessed well!" We've had a great harvest this summer! ”

"Qiuya, you just cried? What's the matter? Fan asked with concern.

Wang Qiuya's face flushed, and she said softly: "It's nothing, let's go in quickly, the president is still waiting." ”

Liu Chunshi said: "What are you doing with the housekeeper Qiu Ya and the president?" Is it your turn? Even if it's Xiaolin and the president's business, it's not your turn to care. ”

Liu Chunshi went in after saying that, and Fan muttered in his head: "I don't have to worry about it, how about asking?" With that, he followed Liu Chunshi into Wei Bao's temporary residence and prepared the palace hall.

"You're just in time!" Wei Bao was also very happy to see the two, "Tell me quickly, is it a bumper harvest of grain?" ”

Wei Bao was concerned about the affairs of the Agricultural Bureau in the early stage, but after handing it over to Wei Dakang, Fan Laopimple and Wang Zhihui, Wei Bao didn't ask much, so it was not very clear what the specific situation was.

"It's a great harvest! President. Fan's big head rushed to report with a smile on his face.

Liu Chunshi smiled slightly, knowing that Fan's head talked a lot, and it was better than his own speech, so he didn't grab it at this time, and reported to Fan's head.

Wei Bao nodded: "Tell me, how many acres of land are there now?" What about the yield? ”

Wei Bao knows that the land in Weijiazhuang, plus the mountainous land, plus a lot of land that cannot be used for farming, all add up to about 2.8 million mu!

"Our Weijiazhuang plans to open up 800,000 acres of wasteland! The actual reclamation of 500,000 acres! By next year, all the planned land reclamation numbers will be completed. Fan's head immediately began to report with a vigorous spirit: "However, the newly opened land this year can only grow corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes, and the yield is also very small. It is still in the warm cultivation stage, and by next year, it is estimated that the yield will not rise, at least until the year after next to be regarded as a normal field. Originally, there were more than 60,000 acres of cultivated land in the four miles of Weijiazhuang, of which more than 10,000 acres were fertile land, more than 30,000 acres were second-class fields, and more than 20,000 acres were thin fields of second class. Vegetables and fruits are not counted, Weijiazhuang's grain crops have rice, wheat, corn, soybeans and potatoes five main varieties, in addition to sorghum, millet and other miscellaneous grain crops, in Weijiazhuang's main grain crop varieties, the output is in the first place is rice, wheat production ranks second, corn production is in the third place, and the rest is soybeans, potatoes, sweet potatoes, sorghum. This year, a total of more than 3.5 million catties of grain and 1.78 million stone of pure grain were harvested. If it weren't for the good seeds brought by Gongzi, even if there were so many wastelands, at most 500,000 stone grains would be thankful. The lord and the lady were happy to close their mouths, my father and the lord estimated, not counting our grain reserves, with the current momentum of Weijiazhuang, the second half of the year will definitely be more than this harvest, and our Weijiazhuang itself can feed four or five hundred thousand people! It can ensure that four or five hundred thousand people will not go hungry in Weijiazhuang, and if everyone lets go of their stomachs and eats enough every day, there is no problem in feeding 250,000 people. ”

Wei Bao sweated, only 1.78 million stone of grain, this is called a bumper harvest? I got more than 1,200 stones from the big families in Liaoxi and Liaodong alone, except for the supply of Mao Wenlong, in addition to the grain spent during this time, there are tens of millions of stone grains and grass!

As for the food problem, in fact, Wei Bao has not been in a hurry since he got the grain storage of the big families in Liaoxi and Liaodong, what he is anxious about is the future grain production, after all, the grain storage will be exhausted one day, and most of the grain and grass have been hoarded by the big farmers for several years, and many of them are moldy and cannot be eaten by people, but can only be fed to livestock.

Grain and grass and grain are two different concepts.

Grain is pure grain that can be eaten directly, and grain and grass need to be further processed.

The "Research on the Yield per Mu of Grain in China's Past Dynasties" gave this stone of rice in the Ming Dynasty weighed about 153.5 catties. This catty is not 500 grams of catties now, but 594.6 grams of catties in the Ming Dynasty.

In addition, the Ming Dynasty said that there are two kinds of polished rice and brown rice, and there are also differences in different rice varieties in various places. ONE STONE OF RICE IS ABOUT 92-94KG.

The unit of measurement of Weijiazhuang, a stone of grain is a full weight of 100KG, 200 catties.

Wei Bao unified weights and measures in Weijiazhuang, all in accordance with the international standards of later generations, removed the current complicated calculation methods, especially the endless three-three system, the most troublesome, Wei Bao's units, all are decimal integer digits.

Although the land in southern Liaoning is much larger than that of Weijiazhuang, the actual cultivated land in southern Liaoning is far lower than that of Weijiazhuang, and the degree of agricultural development is even worse, and it is all land to be developed! In the second half of the year, even if the land reclamation work in southern Liaoning is carried out, 2 million mu or even 3 million mu of land can be cultivated, but it is difficult to say how much grain can be harvested, and it may be dangerous to 100,000 stones.

A little bit of agricultural knowledge also knows that it is not something that can be planted immediately, and the land also has a process of maturity.

Therefore, the current grain has to be calculated with all the grain from Weijiazhuang and the grain stored in Weijiazhuang. Liaonan is almost negligible.

Even if Weijiazhuang has 4 million stone of grain for one year, it will be 8 million stone in two years, and according to the most ideal state, it is estimated that 10 million stone!

The existing grain and grass is 10 million stones, and it is made into grain, at most 7 million stones, and then cut out the deterioration and cannot be eaten, at most about 5 million stones.

Therefore, the grain that Wei Bao can use in the past two years is between 8 million stone and 13 million stone, and most of his men are young and middle-aged, and each person needs to consume two stone of grain per year! It can feed 6.5 million people in two years and 3.25 million people in one year.

This is the ideal algorithm, and there should be no slight margin in it.

Therefore, if the population is increased by 3.25 million, Wei Bao can barely solve it on his own.

Moreover, people in this era can endure hardships and survive without enough to eat.

The food problem is not big, the main reason is that the agricultural population is easily saturated, and even if a total of 10 million mu of land is developed in the future even if it includes fishery and animal husbandry, it will need an agricultural population of 1 million at most.

The rest of the population will either be converted to the industrial population, but this is simply not possible!

With Wei Bao's current development rate, not to mention increasing the industrial population, it would be very good to be able to keep four or five thousand workers from being streamlined.

That is to say, whether it is agricultural land reclamation, solving the problem of agricultural employment population, or the problem of exporting industrial products to expand the market, Weibao needs to further expand the territory and expand the number of people under its jurisdiction!

Only the saturation of agriculture, which cannot satisfy the employment of so many people, can derive industrial development and support industrial progress.

Fan Datou, Liu Chunshi and Wang Qiuya looked at each other for a while, and when they saw that the president was silent, as if they were in deep thought, they didn't dare to say anything.

They can't understand it, it's obviously a bumper harvest, why isn't the president happy?

"President, what's the problem?" Liu Chunshi finally couldn't help but ask.

"Well, nothing, you are doing well, and the Weijiazhuang Agricultural Bureau is also doing well!" Wei Bao affirmed. As he spoke, he picked up a pod and looked at it.

The two medium-sized bags that Fan Datou and Liu Chunshi got were filled with many small bags, all of which were sample crops that were brought to the president to see.

Soybeans generally refer to their seeds, which are divided into five categories according to the color and grain shape of the seed coat of soybeans: yellow soybeans, green soybeans, black soybeans, other soybeans, and feed beans.

Yellow soybean is the most widely cultivated soybean variety.

Wei Bao is now holding a yellow soybean.

Yellow soybeans are most commonly used to make various soy products, brew soy sauce, and extract protein. Okara or ground into a coarse meal is also commonly used in livestock feed.

Soybeans can be processed into soy products such as tofu, soy milk, and bean curd, and soy isoflavones can also be refined. Among them, fermented soy products include fermented bean curd, stinky tofu, bean paste, soy sauce, tempeh, natto, etc. Non-fermented soy products include water tofu, dried tofu (100 pages), bean sprouts, marinated soy products, fried soy products, smoked soy products, fried marinated soy products, frozen soy products, dried soy products, etc. Soy flour is a high-protein alternative to meat and can be used in a variety of foods, including baby food.

After extracting human edible oil from soybeans, the remaining by-product is soybean cake, which is a high-quality protein feed. It is a high-quality protein feed for ruminant livestock such as chickens, pigs, and dairy cattle. Among them, soybean cake refers to the residue cake of soybean after pressing and deoiling, which is shaped as a round cake after hydraulic pressure and thin sheet after screw oil extraction. When used as feed, it needs to be crushed first and then crushed before it can be used. Because of its flavor after crushing, it is very popular with domestic animals.

Soybeans also play a big role in industry.

Soybean oil is produced by soybean processing, soybean oil is one of the important edible oils, is a semi-dry oil, is a good vegetable oil.

It is an important source of unsaturated fatty acids in the human body, which can play a role in lowering cholesterol and has adjuvant treatment effects on hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.

Refined soybean oil, which is formed by refining, is mainly used for consumption. Soybean oil is further processed to produce the following products or provide important raw materials for them.

Soy lecithin is beneficial for the development of the human nervous system; It is widely used in the confectionery and food industry, medicine, paper and tanning.

Shortening and margarine are used in the food processing industry.

Soybeans are a major source of high-purity stearic acid, which is mainly used in the manufacture of food emulsifiers, ore flotation agents, and also in the manufacture of soaps and candles.

Crucially, soybeans can also be used to extract glycerin, which is an important raw material for gunpowder, medicine and papermaking.

Soybean oil is a paint made by mixing tung oil or linseed oil, which is tough and is used for outdoor paint.

Soybean oil mixed with alcohol can make artificial rubber, and it can also be made into liquid fuel, enamel, printing ink, PVC, resin, etc.

The scraps from soybean oil extraction can be used to provide many important products, such as phospholipids for the food industry and the use of stigmasterol and sitosterol to obtain cheap sterol hormone raw materials for the pharmaceutical industry.

Wei Bao can't understand it, it's hard to even buy vegetables in modern times, and he has never worked in agriculture, "How is it?" How about this condition? Is this true for all soybeans? ”

"Most of the bean seeds used by Childe are much better than our local bean seeds!" Fan replied: "I can't eat local food, and there are no seeds at home for ordinary people, and the seeds are half donated and half sold by Zhao Lizheng and other local rich families to the Agricultural Bureau." ”

Wei Bao nodded, and picked up a sorghum to see, sorghum likes temperature and light, the temperature required during the growth period is higher than that of corn, and has a certain high temperature resistance, and the suitable temperature is 20-30 °C during the whole growth period. Moreover, sorghum is a C4 crop and needs sufficient light throughout the growth period. The root system is well developed, the root cells have a high osmotic pressure, and the ability to absorb water from the soil is strong. Great for the dry weather in the north.

Subsequently, Wei Bao took out a piece of corn from a bag and looked at it, it was quite full, similar to the corn he bought in a modern supermarket, and he liked it when he looked at it.

In this era, corn has been built, but few people will use it for farming, potatoes and corn are the two items that Wei Bao specially explained to Wei Dakang to cultivate and sow.

Corn has been introduced to China for more than 400 years, and the corn that Wei Bao brought from Zhenyuanjian is mainly to promote the introduction of varieties, combining natural selection and artificial selection to obtain varieties suitable for China's environment. It belongs to hybrid corn.

Corn is one of the most important food grains in the world in later generations, about one-third of the world's population takes corn as the main food, of which corn accounts for 50% of the food composition of Asians, more than 90%, Africa accounts for 25%, Latin America accounts for 40%.

The protein content of corn is higher than that of rice, the fat content is higher than that of flour, rice and millet, and the calorie content is higher than that of flour, rice and sorghum.

In urban and more developed areas, corn is an indispensable food for adjusting taste. With the development of corn processing industry, the edible quality of corn continues to improve, and new corn foods such as corn flakes, corn flour, corn residue, special corn flour, instant corn, etc., can be further made into noodles, bread, biscuits, etc. Corn can also be processed into corn gluten, corn oil, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce, liquor, etc., and these products are very popular in domestic and foreign markets.

For the current material conditions of Weijiazhuang, corn, soybeans, potatoes and other easy-to-survive crops are very useful, no matter how delicious or unpalatable, it is the king to be able to fill the stomach.

And corn is also the king of feed.

The feed value of 100 kg of corn is equivalent to 135 kg of oats, 120 kg of sorghum or 150 kg of indica rice. Feed with corn as the main ingredient can be exchanged for 1 kg of meat for every 2~3 kg, and corn by-product straw can also be made into silage. About 65-70% of the world's corn is used as feed, and up to 80% in developed countries, which is an important foundation for the development of animal husbandry.

Corn kernels are important industrial raw materials, and two or three hundred kinds of products can be produced in primary and deep processing. Primary processed products and by-products can be used as basic raw materials for further processing and utilization, and a wide variety of products can be manufactured in food, chemical, fermentation, pharmaceutical, textile, papermaking and other industrial productions, and furfural can be produced from the cob. In addition, corn stalks and cobs can be cultivated to produce edible fungi, and bracts can be woven into baskets, carpets, carpets and other handicrafts.

Corn occupies an important place in starch production, and most of the world's starch is produced from corn.

Corn provides the fermentation industry with an abundant and economical source of carbohydrates. The glucose produced by enzymatic hydrolysis is a good raw material for the fermentation industry. By-products of processing, such as corn soaking liquid, slurry, etc., can be used in the fermentation industry to produce alcohol, beer and many other products.

The sugar industry using starch as raw material has greatly increased its variety, output and application range, among which the sugar industry using corn as raw material is particularly eye-catching.

Corn oil is a vegetable oil made from corn germ, which is mainly composed of unsaturated fatty acids. Among them, linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid for the human body, which is a component of human cells, and can be combined with cholesterol in the human body, showing fluidity and normal metabolism, and has the effect of preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases such as arteriosclerosis. The sitosterol in corn oil has the effect of lowering cholesterol, is rich in vitamin E, has antioxidant effect, can prevent dry eye and night blindness, dermatitis, bronchiectasis and other functions, and has a certain anti-cancer effect. Corn oil also has the characteristics of high nutritional value, good taste, and not easy to spoil, so it is very popular among people.

Wei Bao took a bite of corn, and then said to Wang Qiuya: "Have a corn rib soup at noon." ”

Wang Qiuya saw a smile on Wei Bao's face, and nodded happily in agreement.

Fan Datou and Liu Chunshi were also very happy to see the president smile.

"Childe, look at this wheat again." Fan said with a big head: "I've never seen such a big grain of wheat before. ”

Wei Bao snorted, picked it up and looked at it, and put it down again, Wei Bao is not worried about wheat, he is most worried about rice!

Because Wei Bao probably knows that all he eats now is hybrid rice, and hybrid rice seems to be to cultivate seeds, and the authority is in the hands of the state, and even farmers have to buy it from the state every year.

Otherwise, these seeds are all eunuch seeds and cannot reproduce on their own.

Rice is a kind of herbaceous rice, which belongs to cereals, and is also the most important and oldest kind of grain in the rice genus, which is different from upland rice. Native to China and India, rice was cultivated in the Yangtze River basin 7,000 years ago.

The fruit of rice is rice, and the rice is called brown rice after removing the glume husk, and the brown rice can be obtained by grinding off the rice bran layer. Nearly half of the world's population feeds on rice. In addition to being edible, rice can also be used as industrial raw materials for brewing and sugar, and rice husks and rice stalks can be used as feed.

The main rice producing areas in China are mainly the Northeast China, the Yangtze River Basin and the Pearl River Basin. It is a direct cash crop. It is also the staple food of one-third of the world's human race. It is also the main organic food for the people of the South.

Hybrid rice is to select two rice varieties that have certain genetic differences, and their excellent traits can complement each other, to cross, and produce the first generation of hybrids with heterosis for production, which is hybrid rice.

Heterosis is a common phenomenon in the biological world, and the use of heterosis to improve crop yield and quality is one of the main achievements of modern agricultural science.

Rice has obvious heterosis, which is mainly manifested in vigorous growth, developed root system, large panicle and many grains, strong stress resistance, etc., therefore, the use of rice heterosis to greatly improve rice yield has always been the dream of breeders.

However, rice is a self-pollinating plant, and the stamens are born in the same spikelet, because the spikelets are very small, and each flower only bears one seed, so it is difficult to produce a large number of first-generation heterogeneous seeds by artificial de-emasculation hybridization, so the heterosis of rice has not been applied for a long time.

Wei Bao knows that the development trend of these seeds he took is hybridization and genetically modified, and the seeds are no longer seeds in the traditional sense.

Breeding scientists and seed capitalists have been sparing no effort to eliminate farmers' conventional seeds in order to obtain the benefits of seed monopoly. Chinese farmers have hardly a seed of their own

Farmers can't buy a single regular seed from a seed company, and they are all "seeds" that have been cut off.

"I used to tell my dad that the rice seeds I brought were not renewable, and asked them to breed regular seeds, like the ones you planted before, did they get them?" Wei Bao asked.

In fact, Wei Bao is not particularly cold about hybrid rice, how much population is there in this era?

In fact, hybrid rice is only about 20 percent more than conventional rice, and it is not much against the sky, but from a national perspective, it is 20 percent more per mu, which is very scary.

But hybrid rice also uses a lot more chemical fertilizer than conventional rice! Use at least 30 percent more.

Moreover, Wei Bao heard that hybrid rice is not as delicious as conventional rice.

Whether it is delicious or not is not what Wei Bao is most concerned about, what Wei Bao is most concerned about now is whether there can be a follow-up.

If you can only plant this season, and then you have to replant the regular seeds of this era in the future, it will be very troublesome, and it means that the annual yield you just calculated will be greatly reduced!

"Yes, but the new seeds that Uncle Wei and my father made are just a little stronger than our original seeds, and much worse than the rice we are planting now." Fan replied: "There are a few acres of land, which are specially used for experiments by the Agricultural Bureau." ”

After hearing this, Wei Bao was slightly disappointed, but also surprised.
