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 Shanxi 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, these cotton peaches are growing 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 be specific, or let the number jù speak.

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

"300, over 300!" There was an exclamation around, cotton is expensive, it is an important cash crop, the yield per mu is not high, Baotou has planted cotton before, we all know that the yield of cotton is about 60-80 catties, occasionally there is a high, may reach more than 90 catties, but more than 300 catties, is a dream number.

"Could it be cheating?" A small landlord whispered.

"Stupid, how to cheat in front of everyone!" A steady, earnest voice said.

"Yes, one acre of land is easy to do, what about the rest, these 210 hectares, and only one acre is counted!" Another landlord laughed and joked to him by the way: "If you can cheat, you can show me!" ”

You know, they have calculated the size and density of cotton peaches before, and they have roughly produced an output, which must be more than 200, or even more than 220, but how much it can exceed, I can't say how much, now, it has exceeded so much at once. Some landlords who had been prepared for a long time began to think in their hearts that if they stopped picking cotton, they would hand over their land to the reclamation company.

Among the landlords, Hou Jinsheng stood there silently, just calculated the yield per mu, he stood in the outer circle, seemingly inattentive, in fact, but engrossed, when the number of 307 catties came out, he was also excited, he was also a big buyer of cotton plants from the reclamation company, bought from the reclamation company, planted more than 30 acres, the cotton experts at home, also specially got to wait for the 30 acres of land, the final results were good, a little more than 180 pounds per acre, the cotton was completed early, and the cotton yield was about 24, It's almost a quarter, which is much higher than the original cotton in Baotou, and the cotton yield of one-sixth is much higher.

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.

More than 100 catties, it represents about 25 catties of lint, such an increase in the value, even if the cost of all aspects is deducted, and the reclamation company extracts 50, the income per mu of land will be more than 8 yuan, or even reach 10 yuan, and his previous income is not much, once included in the system of the reclamation company, his planting area, is not the current 30 acres, but thousands of hectares, this is a huge number, just a cotton project can get millions of income every year, he, the landlord, I really found a gold mine.

Yang Yuanzhao 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 that 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 so on, one by one, they were reported one by one, and they were completed more, and even one after another, everyone concentrated on this time period to complete, half a day's time per acre, which is basically the efficiency of the most skilled group of workers.

There are still a lot of good things, everyone wants to see, what is the average yield per mu, tirelessly work, 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 so lowest, no less than 275 pounds, high and not higher than 310 pounds, in short, the yield of cotton is relatively concentrated, the fluctuation of the repetition is not large, when tested in different places, at least more than 100 acres of yield, even if it is the best person, there is not much to say, anyone can see, this Baotou cotton harvest, is already a certainty, even if the average is less than 300 pounds, there is little difference, almost ordinary cotton field 4 acres, or even higher yield, such a cash crop, It's really planted, although I don't know what the cotton yield is, but according to the usual 2 percent to estimate, 60 pounds of lint, at least 20 yuan, this is a real silver dollar, an acre of land continues to produce so much, a few years, you can buy an acre of land, this profit is too high.

The small landlords were excited, if it were not for Liu Shu and Yang Yuanzhao, they would even have to move forward and sign an agreement with the reclamation company, even if they planted a season of cotton a year, threw out all kinds of expenses, even if they deducted 50 to the reclamation company, they also had an income of more than 10 yuan per acre of land, which was 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 was still busy, he carefully recorded every count, even after the picking, it was 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 Yang Yuanzhao's mention, no longer from the changes in cotton itself, but more concerned about the changes of plants under fertilizer and water conditions. 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 Baotou, that is, some personnel, could have some help for him, and the rest was to record the number of jù, 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 in Shanghai, 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 output is no longer calculated, piles of cotton, need to be stacked together, the cotton rate has to wait for the cotton to dry out, after the cotton is removed, it can come out, but Yang Yuanzhao has felt the all-in-one machine, there is a slight vibration, obviously, one of his tasks has been completed, at this time, it is inconvenient to directly enter the all-in-one machine, Yang Yuanzhao silently called Ding Dong, let the all-in-one machine report the output to him.

210 hectares of land, The average output is 292.38 catties, the total output, more than 6 million catties, this is the first number jù, 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, in 30.1, this number, with the percentage of 30, only increased by 0.1, representing the increase in the cotton yield of the mainland, you know, the 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 that the output of Baotou this time will be greatly improved, a little calculation, the lint yield 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 things, from cotton to veil, and then to cotton cloth, this value will gradually riseIn terms of the price of 14 pounds of 15-count cotton cloth, the wholesale price of 6.9 yuan, on average, the value of cotton will be close to 0.45, such a ratio 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 a fruitful 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, a certain kind of Cheng dù above, 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, 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, in a certain way, should have adapted to the environment in the northwest, so that the more full, a certain amount of cotton is better, and it is better than the mainland cotton, as long as the scientific selection and breeding, a certain amount of dù above, the yield will still be improved.

"It seems to be very good, Yang Yue, thanks to your efforts!" Yang Yuanzhao said with real emotion, the daily tasks of the all-in-one machine, even if it is the first, there are not many task points rewarded, but it is a real promotion of the progress of the all-in-one machine, not to mention that there is also an agricultural research project, which also relies on Yang Yue, almost Yang Yue represents two of the first four daily tasks.

"Don't thank me first, I have something to ask of you!"

"What, you have something to ask me, as long as I can do it, it's absolutely fine!" Yang Yuanzhao was in a happy mood and said with a big package.

"yes, I really said it!" Yang Yue smiled mysteriously, handed Yang Yuanzhao a list, with a simple line of words written on it, and said: "I don't want other rewards, I just want this!" ”RS
