Zhou Xiyue is very talented in learning and understands the relevant content very thoroughly.

Professor Liu saw that she had a teachable child, so he taught her how to prepare compound fertilizer.

The potash fertilizer production technology was developed by chemist Hou Debang more than ten years ago, and now only four or five factories have been opened across the country.

There is still a lot of room for development.

Zhou Xiyue thought to herself, the compound fertilizer market is now blank, as long as she wants, she can use this preparation technology to make money at any time.

Professor Liu trusted her so much and taught her important skills, Zhou Xiyue had nothing to repay, she could only study harder to live up to the expectations of the two teachers.

After three months of study, Zhou Xiyue has made amazing progress, and Professor Li and Professor Liu are very satisfied, believing that she is a rare talent.

Because it is a talent, it is cherished even more. Both believe that her potential should be maximized.

Now going to the Workers' and Peasants' and Soldiers' University is delaying her, and the two bigwigs have personally made a list of books and compiled textbooks, so that her knowledge can make a huge leap from high school students to master's students.

But before that, Zhou Xiyue was going to Hongxing Village to guide the farming work.

The commune leaders took it very seriously, and heard that they would come to the site when it was time to plant seeds.

Zhou Xiyue wrote a detailed plan, and she used the relationship of the Institute of Agricultural Sciences to get the village to buy compound fertilizer.

The village chief began to have doubts that the amount of money spent on fertilizer could be offset by the increase in grain production.

Again, they have never heard of chemical fertilizers, and it takes a process for people to accept new things.

Not to mention the big thing about the harvest.

But he can't resist Zhou Xiyue.

I have never seen the shadow of chemical fertilizer around Hongxing Village, and it may not be anywhere else.

Zhou Xiyue remembered that Professor Liu said that in some places, urea bags are used to make pants, which is still a fashionable thing that can only be worn by leading cadres.

Now that something has become popular, there's no reason to stop it.

What's more, her plan clearly states the land conditions, soil fertility, and topdressing time of Hongxing Village. Wheat seeds are soaked in a liquid medicine borrowed from the Agricultural Science Institute to control pests and diseases, and large and plump wheat grains are selected from them for seeding.

In the past, no organic fertilizer was applied in the field, and the liquid medicine used to soak the seeds was only a pure natural agent made from plant ash as the main material.

This year has made great progress, and Zhou Xiyue has decided that this year's grain will still be bumper harvest.

The village chief himself was very worried, although his son and Zhou Xiyue were as calm as ever, he was still flustered.

From time to time, he wrote to his son to express his worries, and Zhou Xiyue's plan stipulated that the wheat should be fertilized four times before it grows. The village chief understood the truth too much, so he wondered if Zhou Xiyue was mistaken.

In case of mistake, what will the villagers eat in the coming year?

Although Zhou Xiyue is a reliable person, there is no one with sufficient authority to certify, and the village chief still doubts Zhou Xiyue's ability.

Also, the steps in the plan are complicated, and it is usually very hard to go to the field, and you have to take on extra work, and the villagers are a little complaining.

Zhou Xiyue stayed in the village for a month, going to the fields with the villagers and explaining the benefits of fertilizing crops in easy-to-understand language.

Finally calmed the villagers and stabilized their emotions.

It also made them remember the benefits of fertilizer.

When everything was over, she suddenly remembered Li Wenlan.

Li Wenlan was asked to go to the unit in the city to guide farming, and the increase in output in the first year would increase.

But in the second year, the soil fertility is not enough, and the same predicament will occur as her. And Li Wenlan has not undergone further study, and when she encounters this situation, she can't find a solution in the book, so she will definitely be worried.

How to say that she is also Li Wenlan's leader, and she can't ignore her predicament.

Zhou Xiyue wrote a long letter, stuffed it into an envelope along with the plan she had drawn up for the land in Hongxing Village, and mailed it to Li Wenlan.

Speaking of Li Wenlan, she suddenly remembered Chang Lianping again, when the two agreed that Zhou Xiyue would send her food and drink. As a result, I have been too busy for a while recently, and I forgot about it when I was busy.

She hurriedly bought a lot of food and divided it into two packages, one for Li Wenlan and one for Zhou Xiyue.

After the letter was sent, she stayed in Hongxing Village long enough, and the matter came to an end, and she returned to the Agricultural Science Institute to continue her work.

The days of study passed quickly, and inadvertently, news of a bumper grain harvest came from Hongxing Village.

Professor Li was very interested and said that he would go with her to see it.

Professor Liu will also accompany him.

On the day of the wheat harvest, many people came to Hongxing Village, and everyone wanted to see if they could continue the miracle of the previous year.

The yield per mu is more than 500 catties, whether it is a flash in the pan, or whether Hongxing Village has really found a good way.

The villagers were cutting wheat in the field with sickles, and Zhou Xiyue looked at her hands with emotion, the cocoons that were originally ground out of farming were now completely gone.

It is conceivable that her current wheat cutting speed is not the same as that of others.

She doesn't mess around.

A group of people stood on the ridge of the field to watch people cut wheat, and the warm aroma of wheat floated in the air, which made people feel extremely relieved.

Professor Liu watched Zhou Xiyue talk to the people of Hongxing Village throughout the whole process, she was very young and imposing, and the whole village listened to her, which seemed to be very prestigious.

Professor Liu thinks that the students he teaches can do such a big thing, especially because they are extremely talented and care about people's livelihood. Seeing that the new generation of the Institute of Agricultural Sciences can already take charge on its own, he can be regarded as a successor.

After three days of drying, the yield per mu of wheat has come out, with an average yield of nearly 600 catties per mu.

Professor Li was suddenly stunned when he heard this: "No, the wheat we take care of with great care is only 700 catties per mu." The land in Hongxing Village has only been simply trimmed, and the fertility is provided by chemical fertilizers, why is the yield so high? ”

He immediately went to the village chief to ask for wheat seeds, and wheat was ordinary wheat, not any of the hybrid samples he had studied.

Professor Li took the wheat seed and left with a heavy heart, and Zhou Xiyue had to stay to attend the celebration banquet held by the secretary of the commune.

She didn't like this kind of activity, so she finally got out, and when she returned to the Institute of Agricultural Sciences, she saw Professor Li looking at the seeds in the small pot thoughtfully.

"Wheat needs air, nutrients, and water to grow, and the role of soil is not as great as we think, which means that wheat can be cultivated in a nutrient solution. This allows for better control over variables. ”

Professor Li's eyes lit up as he spoke, and his hands rubbed together eager to try.

Zhou Xiyue stepped forward and reminded: "Teacher, if you put it in the nutrient solution and let it grow in water, isn't it the same as rice?"

Comparative tests are still possible, but they are not suitable for real life. ”

Zhou Xiyue thought to herself that instead of suspecting the mutation of seeds, it was better to suspect that there was something in the soil that would increase grain production.

She has carefully measured how much nitrogen fertilizer is needed, and she should not go wrong.

Variables such as water and temperature, soil, and light can be used to refer to the yield of crops between different plots.

For Professor Li's guess, she went to Hongxing Village to dig up the soil and do the test herself.

The results were not much different from the first test.

It seems that the crops are absorbing well.

Zhou Xiyue felt that the problem was still in the soil.

She was puzzled, and in order to solve the mystery, Professor Li no longer got into the horns.

Zhou Xiyue assigned herself a practical task to go to the countryside to find the seeds of mutation.

She took a book and a backpack to observe in the field, and met barley in the wheat field, nothing strange.

On this day, she saw the duck catcher carrying a bucket of green weeds on top of the fermented dung heap.

I don't know what's going on, she suddenly has a hunch, the yield must have something to do with this green ping.

Otherwise, why would she see it?

Zhou Xiyue asked about the pond where the green weed grows, fished out a small bucket with a net, and walked dozens of kilometers to the Institute of Agricultural Sciences for testing.
