Chapter 696: On the Eve of the Founding of the People's Republic of China
"Oh my God!" After Meng Douban's translation, the French were all stunned.
Biogas first appeared in Italy in Europe, and Europeans also understood that biogas has a wide range of sources, low cost, and cleaning effect, which is much better than burning coal.
However, up to now, the efficiency of biogas production is still very low, and the key is the lack of understanding and research on the ecological environment of biogas fermentation microflora, and the isolation and cultivation technology of methane bacteria, so it is still in the experimental stage, and it is very early to be put into application.
In fact, in the field investigation for several months, Meng Douban and others have a certain understanding of China's prosperity and prosperity, but they are also ahead of Europe in some aspects of science and technology, which is a fact that is difficult for them to accept.
After all, most Europeans originated in Europe because the Industrial Revolution originated in Europe, and because Asian countries were repeatedly conquered by Europe, so even the socialist leftists, or Hugo with an international humanitarian spirit, will be very friendly to Asians, but they still have a lingering sense of superiority in their bones, and this friendliness is mostly in the form of compassion and charity.
Meng Douban couldn't help but ask, "How long have you been using biogas?" Are there many villages around me that use biogas? ”
Zhou Dali pondered: "The village installed biogas three years ago, and the nearby villages don't seem to have heard of any of them still burning charcoal. ”
Hugo didn't wait for Meng Douban to translate, and suddenly came up with a very bold idea, the secret of biogas production should be related to the biogas digester. If you can get some raw materials from the pond and take them away for research, can you uncover the secret of biogas production?
There is no shortage of scientists in Europe. What is missing is only direction and ideas!
Hugo hurriedly pulled Meng Douban and muttered a few words, without deliberately hiding his voice. He bullied Zhou Dali for not understanding French.
Meng Douban is also bright-eyed, if he obtains the method of producing biogas and goes back to France to apply for a patent, it will be more expensive than selling wine.
"Mr. Strong!" Meng Douban smiled slightly: "I am personally very interested in biogas, can you take us to the pond to have a look?" Of course, it's best to be able to get in. ”
"This" Zhou Dali was puzzled: "Mr. Meng Douban, it's not that I took you there, but it's useless to go, the pool is locked." Even the company's leaders can't get in, the keys are in the hands of the Agricultural Science Institute, and they come regularly for maintenance, responsible for removing residues and putting new materials, and don't let us interfere at all.
And the biogas digester is poisonous, and every time they operate it, they have to wear a very strange mask, which is also only owned by the agricultural department. ”
"Oh~~" Meng Douban nodded, and said casually: "Then can you help us contact the Institute of Agricultural Sciences?" ”
Zhou Dali suddenly showed a very strange look, and couldn't help but smile: "I heard that the commander-in-chief has specially confessed. If a foreigner who is friendly to China comes over, he must try his best to entertain him, but if the foreigner makes some requests involving confidentiality. It must be approved by the Government Council, which means that the Institute of Agricultural Sciences does not have the power to open the lid for you. Come, it's my house in front of me. Come in with me, gentlemen. ”
"Oh my God!" Meng Douban shrugged helplessly.
No need to guess. Hugo also knew that this was yellow, and shook his head in disappointment, after all, they were not spies, and they never thought of using extraordinary means to obtain the swamp mud, but taking a step back, even if he got the swamp mud, it was useless, most of the colonies in the swamp pond were anaerobic bacteria, and they would die immediately if they were taken out of the swamp, and they would not be able to study it if they were brought back to China.
Between a few steps, Zhou Dali brought the guests home, his home is a cement two-story building, similar to the standard house in the countryside of southern Jiangsu in modern society, the door is a living room, the kitchen and utility room are on the first floor, and the bedroom is on the second floor.
"The old lady went to Taicang to sell rice dumplings, the daughter-in-law is in the factory, and the two children are in the nursery. Zhou Dali beckoned the foreigner into the kitchen, picked up the match, wiped it and lit it, put on the fire and then turned the stove switch.
"Peng!" With a bang, a circle of blue flames rose, emitting scorching heat, and Zhou Dali put a kettle on his hand to boil water.
"Oh my God, it's really incredible, in our France, we still use coal for cooking!" Emma patted her chest in frustration.
I have to say that Zhou Dali's kitchen is very large, there is a huge water tank at the door, there is a large iron pot and a large steamer unique to the countryside in the corner, there are several thick stacks of bowls and chopsticks in the cupboard, the side is the operating table, there are kitchen knives and chopping boards, the cement table on the opposite side is inlaid with iron stoves, with three stove eyes, in the innermost corner of the wall, there are rice bowls, flour tanks, and some common and easy-to-put vegetables, such as edamame, green peppers, potatoes, etc., and there is an old hen that is drying with hair on the shelf.
For Zhoujiazhuang seven years ago, no one knows the details better than Meng Douban, at that time the kitchen of every family had a big black earthen stove, in addition to the land protection house, the rice tank is almost bottom, the house is full of firewood and grass, but the kitchen in front of me, the window is bright and clean, the facilities are complete, the food is rich, and modern biogas is used.
Meng Douban asked with emotion: "Very good kitchen, better than I imagined, Mr. Dali, can you take us to other rooms to have a look?" ”
"Please, a few people!" Zhou Dali was proud and proud, leading everyone to other rooms.
There are all kinds of tools in the utility room, in the bedroom, the large bed is stacked with neat and clean bedding, the roof is dried with grain, and even the independent bathroom has been visited, but there was no flushing device at that time, and you need to scoop water to flush, but even so, it has attracted the admiration of foreigners.
Next, Zhou Dali led a visit to the canning factory, the nursery, and also drove the tractor to demonstrate, especially the nursery, about dozens of children were led by the teacher to play games, sing and dance, edutainment, vivid and interesting, and also performed a good program.
Meng Douban felt that they had come to a developed country, and France was relatively far behind.
Hugo couldn't help but sigh: "I should suggest that those utopian socialists come to China and have a look, I think they will get inspiration from it and understand what socialism is." ”
In the evening of the same day, the company came forward, and held a grand banquet to entertain Meng Douban and his party, although the banquet held in the countryside is a little dirty, but it is better than lively, the dishes are directly rich, because foreigners do not eat freshwater fish, so the dishes are mainly based on a variety of meats.
In the company's conference room, the table is full of pots of spiced beef, braised beef, braised pork ribs, sweet and sour pork ribs, stewed chicken, stewed duck, and some fine stir-fried dishes with Chinese characteristics.
Even because I know that foreigners are not used to eating liquor, there is a special wine on the wine table, of course, this is not a famous wine, just a very ordinary cheap wine.
When drinking, I don't use glass goblets anymore, but use bowls, bowls of red wine to keep pouring into my mouth, although this is very rude in the eyes of Westerners, but it is a different kind of feeling.
That night, the foreigners stayed at the house of Zhou Deliang, the current general manager of the company, and his son Zhou Fucai had become the governor of Jiangxi Province.
Meng Douban and others stayed in Zhoujiazhuang for two days, and in the early morning of the third day, they were accompanied by more than ten representatives of Zhoujiazhuang and went to Nanjing
At the end of September, Nanjing's autumn was crisp, the sky was blue, the good weather brought a good mood, the colorful flags fluttered in the city, and the huge red lanterns hung up in rows along the wide streets, everyone was immersed in the joy before the founding of the People's Republic of China, but Wang Feng was busy and crazy.
Since mid-September, Wang Feng has been constantly receiving representatives from all walks of life and various regions and countries, and has to meet with dozens of delegations a day; except for Russia, the rest of the European and American countries are the original team of allied forces or envoys stationed in China; there are also Chinese delegations from the three Southeast Asian countries, the Chinese delegation of the Indonesian islands, representatives of the Japanese shogunate, representatives of the Indian princely states, representatives of Siam, and representatives from Central and South America, such as Chile, Mexico, and Argentina.
In addition to the three countries of Chinese in Southeast Asia, many of them come uninvited, and there are even private individuals who risk their official status, Wang Feng actually knows it, but on such a special day, when people come to congratulate the founding of the country, you can't drive people away.
"Commander-in-Chief, Mr. Meng Douban wants to see you." Three days before the founding of the country, Wang Feng had just sent off the joint delegation of Puerto Rico and Cuba, and the two countries, encouraged by the independence of the Philippines, had traveled to China to seek diplomatic support through congratulations.
Wang Feng naturally expressed solidarity with the independence movements in Central and South America, and promised that the independence of Puerto Rico and Cuba would be mentioned in future negotiations with Spain.
The talks lasted about half an hour, accompanied by Li Hongzhang and Miao Peilin, and then according to the plan, they participated in the inauguration ceremony of the National Heroes Memorial Hall, but at this moment, Meng Douban came.
"Oh? Please, no, I'll go and greet you personally! Wang Feng stood up and walked out quickly.
Today's Government Council has been renamed the State Council, and in front of the State Council, Meng Douban and his party are standing.
The State Council and the ministries and commissions of the state were rebuilt by Hong Xiuquan's Tianwang Palace, and the True God Glory Gate was renamed as Chengtianmen, and there was a black wooden sign hanging at the door, writing the names of the State Council, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Commerce and other organs and departments of China.
As the heart of the country, the most basic requirement is the magnificent atmosphere, the city wall is all painted vermilion, the city tower is rebuilt in accordance with the style of Tiananmen Square in Beijing, looking at the tall and majestic city, the almost endless granite square, and the south, east and west of the square three straight avenues up to 60 meters wide, for no reason, Meng Douban and others have a very small feeling.
