335 Champa No. 1
If you want to stop Cheng Changyu's mouth, which has opened the conversation, it is only possible to wait for Cheng Changyu to tell them about their experience in researching this new rice seed in the past few years.
While listening silently, Yao Yuntong, who already has rich biological knowledge, finally understood how difficult it was to get this handful of rice ears in his hand.
However, it is precisely because of the efforts of Cheng Changyu and his generation of agricultural scientists that there will be a surprise of this bundle of harvest species in Yao Yuntong's hands.
"What is the overall yield of this rice seed?"
finally waited for Cheng Changyu to show off their arduous journey, Yao Yuntong seized the gap between Cheng Changyu's speech and asked a question that he was more concerned about.
"Judging from the data we have obtained now, the yield of the 'Zhancheng No. 1' last season is 20 percent higher than the yield of our existing rice seeds, reaching three stones and five buckets, and now this season's grain is just to verify the stability of the 'Zhancheng No. 1' rice seeds, and from the current situation, the rice seeds we bred this time can be fully practical!"
"Of course, if you really want to put in real production, considering the restrictions of the people's fertilizer application and farming technology, the yield will inevitably not meet the standard of the experiment, but I dare to guarantee that the yield per mu is stable at about three stones, and there is no problem at all."
"The advantage of Champa No. 1 is not only that it has a high yield, but also that it is more drought-tolerant, has lower fertilizer requirements, and the corresponding disadvantage is that the taste of rice is relatively poor."
When it comes to advantages and disadvantages, Cheng Changyu is inevitably a little dissatisfied, which is a common problem as a researcher, but in Yao Yuntong's view, the so-called 'Zhancheng No. 1' can already be said to be a magical species.
In the current era of food, in addition to Dayuan Island, the grain produced in that place today is guaranteed to reach a high yield of more than three stones, if this rice seed is promoted to the Ming Dynasty, no one can estimate how many people it can save the Ming Dynasty from fire and water.
"Okay, well, from the next season, we will start to promote your Zhancheng rice as the only rice variety in our Bengang."
Yao Yuntong will not care about the little shortcomings of this "Zhancheng No. 1" rice, in his eyes, if under his leadership, Bengang's agriculture can reach a higher peak and make epoch-making progress, some shortcomings can be tolerated.
"But we don't have enough 'Zhancheng No. 1' rice seeds now, if it is promoted in our Bengang whole land, then there must be at least about 40,000 catties of rice seeds!"
Cheng Changyu is not happy, although this 'Champa No. 1' has been planted for two or three seasons, but the overall scale is not large, plus the need to use part of the grain to do various research, etc., so far counting the rice seeds that are about to be harvested, they still have at least two-thirds of the shortfall.
"Then it's up to Lao Cheng to figure out your own way, if it really doesn't work, now I can arrange a boat to send you to Qiongzhou and Luzon, and at the same time report to request that you prepare enough manpower for good land, what do you think?"
In order to add a strong sum to his resume, Yao Yuntong was open this time, and made every effort to prepare for the promotion of "Zhancheng No. 1".
"That's fine, but this time has to be as soon as possible, otherwise I'm really worried that I won't be able to wait for spring plowing next year."
"Also, this third season of rice paddies is best in Luzon, where the climate is warmer and the rice matures faster!!"
If you really want to be able to promote the "Zhancheng No. 1" and other beloved baby bumps, benefit countless people, and do your part for your team, it is naturally an excellent thing for Cheng Changyu, how can he shirk it!
"Okay, no problem, wrap it up on me!!"
Yao Yuntong slapped his chest with his big hand, made a promise on the spot, and then turned around and ran back with the bundle of rice seeds in his hand, and he didn't forget to explain to Cheng Changyu and them while running: "You guys go and get ready now, bring as many rice seeds as possible, don't bring other unnecessary things, I will ask people to prepare new ones for you in Luzon!" ”
After hurrying home from the experimental field of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, he casually cleaned up the filth on his body, changed into clean clothes, Yao Yuntong picked up the handful of rice and rushed to the train station.
By the time Yao Yuntong, who had worked tirelessly to rush from the distant Bengang to Keelung Town, came out of the train carriage with a dusty body and set foot on the land of Keelung Town, it was already ten o'clock in the afternoon of the next day.
Thanks to the opening of such a special train line between Bengang and Keelung, although there are only two or three round-trip trains a week, this has saved countless times compared to the time between the two places once and again.
It is precisely because this is more convenient, although this train can carry two or three hundred people at most, and the ticket price is extraordinarily high, but it still makes people rush to it, although they dare not say that they are full back and forth, but the fare income of a round trip is enough to meet the daily station personnel expenses and train, track maintenance, and surplus.
After getting off the train, Yao Yuntong did not delay at all, called a rickshaw at the train station to find the right direction, and went straight to the Admiral Yamen Mansion where Li Tianyang worked.
When he entered the Yamen Mansion, the middle-class staff of the Yamen were still surprised why Yao Yuntong was so embarrassed, carrying a bundle of straw wrapped in a straw mat on his shoulder, and the straw ears leaked out from both ends of the straw mat.
Tang Tang is the director of the Stupid Hong Kong Agricultural Bureau, not only does he not look like this now, but compared to those homeless people who have just come to Hongmen, he just has two more red faces.
Hurry up, and finally before Li Tianyang got off work, Yao Yuntong blocked Li Tianyang in his office, otherwise Yao Yuntong could only carry this bundle of rice to Li Tianyang's house.
Yao Yuntong was elated when he entered the door, and when he came out, he was even more complacent, and he traveled thousands of miles to Keelung in person, Yao Yuntong naturally hoped to personally report this great news to Li Tianyang, and after hearing Yao Yuntong's outlook on the yield of rice seeds named "Zhancheng No. 1" by Cheng Changyu, Li Tianyang was also very happy.
For Li Tianyang and Hongmen, who are about to set foot in the chaotic world and compete for hegemony, the hard currency of grain is naturally not too much, and with these grains, Li Tianyang and they will have greater confidence to expand their strength and buy people's hearts.
