Chapter 11 The Beginning of the Seed Industry

For the communication with **** De, Changsun Tang really felt a little difficult. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Maybe God sent me to play with me, the eldest grandson thought. It seems that this Jinshan Academy is going to speed up the training of these talents in Eastern Agriculture. That's all for now.

finally told **** De about this reward: Wang's father and son rewarded 1,000 copper coins, and at the same time paraded the streets during the Spring Festival amusement activities. And give corresponding honors. This parade is not the meaning of parading the streets, but in the Spring Festival, riding the horse prepared by the Hou Mansion, visiting the streets and alleys of this golden mountain, and accepting the admiration of the citizens. It seems that there is something wrong with the use of this "visit".

Hearing the news, **** De was particularly excited. Although the reward of the eldest grandson is directly to the individual, rather than to a certain unit.

In the previous life, there would always be such a problem, someone received the award and came back, and the result was that even the boiler burned a share, if this was a "civilized unit", it would be fine, but the scientific researchers got the least in the end. The eldest grandson does not intend to promote this kind of atmosphere, and directly issues rewards to individuals, and the unit can issue a certain amount of funds. As for the bonuses for the rest of you, the unit will take care of it by itself.

Although there is this system here, the benefits that **** can get are limited. But after all, this is a great thing for all those who are engaged in research. As long as you can research one item in your life, you can have no worries about food and clothing.

"Then Master Hou, can you go to the back and take a look?" De was a little hesitant, he didn't know what he thought this thing was, and he didn't know if Changsun Tang attached importance to this matter.

"What's the matter? Say it now. "The eldest grandson doesn't plan to be led by the **** virtue like this.

"That's right, Master Hou. I am responsible for the improvement of agricultural varieties, can Master Hou go to guide and guide. **** De said.

"And what have you changed?" The eldest grandson asked. It is a relatively difficult thing to improve this kind of improved seeds, especially when the genetic law of plant genes has not yet been discovered.

"My main research is on the seeds of this rice." De also followed the pace of the eldest grandson to move forward, and his heart was hot at this time.

"Rice? Did you get Champa rice? As soon as the eldest grandson heard about rice, he immediately remembered this famous rice variety in ancient history.

Although Champa rice is named after Champong, it is widely cultivated in Guangxi and other countries such as Annam, Champa and Zhenla. Champa rice is a high-yielding, early-maturing, drought-tolerant rice variety produced in the Indochinese Peninsula. Champa rice is named after its place of origin, which is located in present-day south-central Vietnam. Champa rice, also known as early grass or Zhanhe, belongs to early indica rice, native to south-central Vietnam, Champa rice has three main characteristics: first, "drought tolerance"; the second is strong adaptability, "born regardless of location"; Third, the growth period is short, only more than 50 days from planting to harvesting.

Such a famous variety was only introduced to Fujian in the Song Dynasty, which was naturally unacceptable to Changsun Tang. So it's no surprise that Champa rice appears here.

"Yes, Master Hou. This Champa rice is an excellent variety, and after six times of planting in the past two years, the yield is very high, and it is also very good in other aspects. When it comes to this profession, **** morality seems to be like a river.

"You said you planted six times in two years? That is, three crops are planted in a year? The eldest grandson asked.

"yes, it's all three seasons a year." Virtue appeared full of confidence.

The eldest grandson slapped his head, and then remembered that this was the tropical equatorial region. So he said expressionlessly, "You continue." ”

"One of the good things about this is that you can plant it at any time, which completely subverts my concept that agriculture needs to be based on agricultural time during the Chang'an period. It's a rice paradise. **** De said excitedly.

"I didn't ask you about the characteristics here, what exactly did you do with this seed selection problem?" The eldest grandson corrected the **** virtue that was a little off track.

"Oh, Master Hou, I'm sorry, I'm a little excited." Tak was a little embarrassed.

Ge Feng laughed.

"Getting to the point." What else can Changsun Tang say now? Since there is nothing to say, it is better to remain silent.

"Okay, okay. The yield of this Zhancheng rice is indeed high, but if this kind of seed is not selected well, the germination rate is not high, so we thought of a method of seed selection. **** De paused here and looked at Changsun Yu.

Looking at the expressionless eldest grandson, **** De continued: "We used brine to select seeds, and found that if the amount of salt is appropriate, the quality of the selected seeds is obviously better, and the amount of salt is ......."

De's words were interrupted by Changsun Tang: "You know these details, just spread it." I just need to know the result. ”

"Oh, Master Hou, that's right. The survival rate of this seed selected with brine can be increased by about 10%, and the yield can be increased by about 10%. **** De is really concise and to the point, according to the meaning of the eldest grandson, as soon as he finished speaking, he never spoke again.

The principle of this brine selection is known by Changsun Tang, that is, the method of using different concentrations of brine with different densities to select those that are too low may be the grains. It's in this junior high school chemistry textbook, but I didn't remember it for a while. As soon as he said this, he understood.

"Well, this can be done, you can report this along with the invention of the threshing machine, and formulate the relevant rewards." The eldest grandson paused for a moment and continued, "Is there anything else? ”

"I didn't have anything to do during the rice growing period, so I transplanted these different varieties of rice together and found something strange." Tak said.

Changsun Tang knew that this **** virtue was half a foot into the door of hybrid rice, and the difference may only be a little bit, but Changsun Tang did not plan to pull out the seedlings to help grow. Now that there is a lot of land in Datang, there is still no problem with food supply.

"Tell me what you find." The eldest grandson suppressed the excitement in his heart and said to **** De.

"The rice seeds put together, when I continued to plant them for the second time, some of them performed very well, and some of them were very bad, and I don't know what went wrong." De is very depressed about this matter, obviously the same seed, but the result is very different.

"What do you care about him? What do you need? "Eldest Sun Tang felt that it was still necessary to prompt it.

"What a good breed!"

"What about the bad ones?"

De slapped his thigh and shouted, "I understand." And then he went away in a gorgeous way.

This time it was really gone, leaving only a quickly disappearing back for the eldest grandson...... (To be continued.) )
