Chapter Fifty-Eight: She's Going to Give Up
"Now let's take advantage of the moonlight to go to the corner of your house and pick lettuce and cabbage. Let's celebrate that you have two more apprentices, what do you think? Zhang Guangming said happily to Professor Guo.
"Okay!" Professor Guo said excitedly.
Qin Chun and Li Zhongqiu, the two of them worked together with the teacher of Xinbai, busy picking vegetables, washing vegetables, blanching vegetables, and adjusting vegetables.
In a short time, the delicious appetizer will be ready.
The four of them knew everything while drinking, and they talked freely endlessly.
They talk about the causes of poverty in the country.
Zhang Guangming sighed and said indignantly: "Looking back at the history of the past hundred years, how many heavy blows the motherland has suffered!"
Under the iron heel of a strong enemy, every Chinese should not forget the national humiliation in order to create the future!
Let's not talk about it far away, let's just say that the Empress Dowager Cixi will cost the country eight million taels of silver for her 60th birthday! How can there be so many taels of silver in the treasury? ’
She embezzled military funds for the construction of the navy. These are all mentioned in the historical information books, which caused the ships of the Beiyang Fleet to be outdated and short of ammunition, which eventually led to the defeat of the Japanese Combined Fleet in the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle! ’
When I think about it, do you think about it? Let our people fall into deep trouble, at that time, it was she who made us Chinese nest to the extreme! She's really long-haired and short-sighted! Several people present nodded.
Zhang Guangming said with great emotion: "How can the compensation for the land cession again and again not make the morale of our people indignant?
Mr. Sun Yat-sen, he led a large number of patriotic literati and the vast number of soldiers and civilians to make a revolution together, overthrowing the incompetent and corrupt Qing Dynasty, and the victory of the October Revolution led by Marx of the Soviet Union is of great and far-reaching significance to our country!
After the May Fourth Movement, there were also a group of Marxist disseminators, such as our great men and other revolutionaries, who ignited the flame of revolution and constantly set fire to the prairie among the workers, peasants and soldiers of our country.
Later, the workers, peasants and soldiers of the Chinese Communist Party with advanced ideology won the great victory of the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation through persistent and bloody battles, and finally overthrew the old society.
The phenomena under the new social system have taken on a new look. You say yes, right? ”
They all nodded yes.
The four masters and apprentices talked about the arduous 25,000-mile Long March from the National Revolution and the Northern Expedition.
Zhang Guangming went on to talk about World War II. "I saw in the newspapers: 'The heroic Soviet Red Army won a great victory at the heavy cost of 27 million men.
And what about us, China? The war against aggression was achieved at a terrible cost of 35 million casualties.
The heroic and tenacious Chinese army and people have gathered their hearts and minds to completely smash the wolf ambitions of the aggressors who vainly tried to annex our country. Therefore, we must cherish the hard-won peaceful life! ’”
Zhang Guangming then said that the broad masses of the Communist Party of China have made concerted efforts to win a great victory in the three-year War of Liberation.
I also kept talking about the moment when the great man stood on the tower of Tianmen City and announced the founding of the People's Republic of China, the people of the whole country wept with joy, the people were liberated, and we poor people could finally live with dignity! Since then, I can finally stand up and be a man!
Professor Guo said excitedly: "At that time, I was also among them!
Eh, the crowd downstairs is boiling!
100,000 people rejoice!
That kind of warm scene can't be described in words, and the whole country was jubilant that day! ”
Li Zhongqiu and Qin Chunchun both said with envious eyes: "Teacher, you are so lucky!" ”
Zhang Guangming said emotionally: "Under the wise leadership of the Communist Party of China, land reform has been carried out, so that the peasants have land, and the people can become masters of their own homes!"
The Party Central Committee has gone through a series of reform measures to implement it, so that the people living at the bottom can live with dignity! ”
Zhang Guangming said: "Do you know? China's peasants account for more than 80 percent of China's population! ”
"Oh? I really didn't know that there were so many farmers in my country! Li Zhongqiu said in surprise.
"So my country attaches great importance to the development of agriculture! From the founding of the People's Republic of China to 1953, the socialist transformation was carried out, with the development of mutual aid groups as the mainstay. China began to implement the "First Five-Year Plan," and from 1954 to the end of 1955, China mainly ran primary cooperatives.
In 1956, China mainly ran high-level cooperatives.
not only agriculture, but also the socialist transformation of handicraft industry; The bourgeoisist industrial and commercial socialism was transformed. Did you know that through these transformations, our country's first five-year plan has exceeded its task! ”
The three of you look at me, I look at you, nodded and said together, "We know." ”
"Oh, look at how much I've rambled, you're all high school graduates! How could you not know? Zhang Guangming said embarrassedly.
"The First National People's Congress held in 1954 promulgated the first Constitution of the People's Republic of Chinese, which basically established socialism in our country.
The enthusiasm of the people of the whole country in building socialism is very high!
Look at the enthusiasm of the people on all fronts! Zhang Guangming said with emotion.
Professor Guo went on to say: The Second Session of the Eighth National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward the general line of 'mustering up all energy, striving for the upper reaches, and building socialism as quickly and efficiently as possible', which is to encourage the people to work hard for socialism.
But later, it really wanted to quickly catch up with and surpass the powerful country, but everything was difficult to achieve quickly! ”
Zhang Guangming continued: "Yes! Our country is an explorer of socialism, groping for the stage of progress on the road of building socialism, and intends to find a road of rapid development!
As long as it is a method that can greatly arouse the enthusiasm of the peasants, it is a very good method! ”
When Professor Guo heard this, he was so frightened that he hurriedly and quietly observed the facial expressions of the two educated youths.
Seeing that their expressions were not abnormal, he turned his face to look at Zhang Guangming and immediately stopped: "Guangming, you don't dare to say this when you go out of this house!"
If this word were to be spread to the top, it would be said to be "dismantling the collective economy", and you would be beaten and criticized by the Red Guards just like me!
This is no joke!
Li Zhongqiu and Qin Chunchun, you two go out, don't spread the words he said. ”
The two looked at each other with puzzled expressions, looking at Professor Guo's cautious face, "Did you hear that?" ”
The two young men looked at Professor Guo's nervous appearance and hurriedly nodded with serious expressions.
Zhang Guangming looked up at the window and found that the sky was slightly bright, only to know that several people had stayed awake all night.
They talked about state affairs and world affairs until dawn.
Zhang Guangming finally summed up tonight's conversation.
He said: "The reason why we in China will be bullied is because of China's backward weapons, so it will be invaded by foreign enemies!"
Throughout history, since ancient times, backwardness has been beaten, and poverty has been bullied!
Looking at the world, only those with advanced weapons are strong, and it is not enough to develop industry, agriculture and commerce alone, and it is still not enough to have backward weapons!
**But we in China were the first to make it, but the countries of Western imperialism, their thinking is long-term!
They thought of ammunition for making **.
And what about our country?
But it is made for the brilliance of the fire tree and silver flower.
So? You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to defend people!
As everyone in the Chinese nation, we must attach importance to the development of military science and technology, not only the development of agriculture and industry, do you say? ”
"Hmm," the trio nodded.
He went on to say, "I think all walks of life can only get rid of poverty by relying on scientific and technological innovation and hard work."
If every Chinese citizen can not forget the national shame, create the future, work hard for the prosperity and strength of the motherland, make their own contributions, and know the importance of innovation for the revitalization of China, then our motherland will gradually develop into a brilliant and great power! ”
The three of them listened to Zhang Zhishu's words, and a courage and determination of hard work suddenly rose in their hearts.
Zhang Guangming stretched out his hand and said, "Come!" Let's work hard for the people to have enough food and clothing!
Let's work hard to revitalize our country's agricultural industry! ”
The four stretched out their powerful hands and stacked them together, and their red hearts for the motherland and the people were also condensed together.
The four of them said in unison, "Yes! We will work hard for the people of the motherland to have enough food and clothing, and for the revitalization of our country's agricultural undertakings! ”
At this time, the courtyard began, and the little swallows chirping.
Zhang Guangming said with a smile: "This is really a swallow breaking dawn to wake people up!" ”
A few people laughed heartily and ended today's conversation.
The four of them still felt that the aftermath was not over, and they reluctantly dispersed.
Qin Chun and Li Zhongqiu are like-minded.
On the way back, Qin Chun looked at Li Zhongqiu and said with emotion: "I really didn't expect that I could worship those two teachers in another country!" ”
Li Zhongqiu looked at him and immediately blushed and smiled, she said, "Yes! Worship our teacher, and meet a confidant!" Qin Chun nodded in agreement.
On the way home, Zhang Guangming was so excited that his eyes lit up, and he couldn't close his mouth happily.
He values the virtuous and thinks of the village, and gathers good talents for the public.
He thought to himself with great joy: This is the blessing that our village has cultivated for several lifetimes!
God favors us so much, and he actually sent these generals here, which will add wings to the great cause of our village, and create brilliance for our village like a fierce general!
Thinking of this, he looked forward to a bright future.
Since then, Professor Guo has continued to pick up dung.
The two educated youths followed Zhang Guangming to do farm work in the practice base during the day.
The two intellectuals asked Mr. Zhang Guangming to teach them the theoretical knowledge of breeding.
Zhang Guangming said to the two educated youths: "If we want to learn genetics, we must first understand the founder of genetics.
What about the first lesson?
Let me tell you the story of the founder of genetics.
Holding a book in his hand, he read: "His name is Johann Gregor Mendel, and he is Austrian.
Mendel was born on July 20, 1822.
Mendel was born into a peasant family, and his father was very fond of flowers and plants, and he was deeply influenced by his father and loved to grow flowers and plants.
One day in the early spring of 1856, he found a wasteland as his test field, and planted many kinds of plants, among which were peas, strawberries and other crops.
Mendel prepared for experiments with genetic hybridization, and he also raised bees, house mice, etc.
He went through experiment after experiment, based on the accumulation of experience year after year. ”
When Zhang Guangming read this, the two apprentices asked in a gossipy manner:
"Huh? It's not a matter of a year or two to develop a seed, right? ”
"Then after year after year, it took him a few years to develop a good variety?"
Zhang Ming said: "Don't worry? Listen to me! ”
He held the book and read: "Mendel chose peas, he crossed peas with different traits, and then he mated the first generation of hybrids with each other. ”
"Mendel wrote down in detail the traits of their offspring," he wrote.
No matter how many years of careful study he has gone through, summer and cold, Mendel will always concentrate and carefully carry out his experimental research work. ”
The two intellectuals looked at the teacher and asked, "Mr. Zhang, then he has developed a good variety after several years of experiments?" ”
Zhang Guangming said unhurriedly: "Mendel carried out 8 years of experimentation before ......"
The two apprentices interjected in surprise, "Huh? Eight years, huh? ”
Professor Guo put down the textbook and said, "No, you think that cultivating seeds is a simple matter, but you are very wrong.
The book says: 'Mendel cultivated thousands of pea plants, underwent more than 350 artificial inseminations, and selected more than 10,000 seeds of various traits. ’”
Zhang Guangming said that the introduction in this book is very detailed!
He put down the book and looked at the two apprentices and said with infinite emotion, "How much effort has he spent in the past eight years?"
