Chapter 16 The study is clear, but it cannot be eaten as a meal

Suddenly, Qin Yu's eyes lit up: Since the biggest problem that Lujia Village is currently facing is the problem of not having enough to eat, why not let them temporarily plant potatoes to solve their urgent needs?

Although potatoes are not delicious, they are better than high yields, and a small plot of land can fill a family's stomach.

Only when everyone is not hungry will the follow-up problem of getting rich be considered.

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and Qin Yu has already made a plan in his heart. After the villagers had no worries about food and clothing, he led the villagers to build a road to the outside with the village chief, planted mountains of cash crops, and finally led the villagers on the road to prosperity.

When a teacher goes to a poor mountain village to teach, it is obviously not all about teaching the children some book knowledge. Its greatest significance is to bring the concept of civilization and science to the village.

When Qin Yu was teaching in the last village, he used to work with the village chief. The two sent the soil from the village to the agricultural technology station for testing, and found that the soil structure in the village was very suitable for planting Chinese medicinal herbs and alpine grapes.

And he worked tirelessly to make use of the relationship to contact the outside medicinal herb dealers, so that they could enter the village to buy the products of the villagers. The local county also strongly supported and gave special grants.

After only one quarter, the appearance of that village has changed dramatically, not only can everyone have enough to eat, but the per capita income has soared from a few hundred yuan to 100,000 yuan per capita, completely taking off the hat of poverty and backwardness.

In the second half of the year, Qin Yu also assisted the village chief, enriching the entertainment life of the villagers and making them spiritually rich.

In the end, the villagers were also grateful to him, and when he was about to leave the village, every family came to see him off, and the children's eyes were swollen from crying. All kinds of mountain goods, eggs and bacon, piled up in his entire trunk.

And Qin Yu himself was greatly satisfied in his heart, feeling that this was the true meaning of his teaching in the mountain village.

Even the meaning of his life.

Yu still roughly remembers that the soil in that village had weak fertility but high pH value, and the soil structure was loose and sandy. This soil is not only suitable for growing Chinese medicinal herbs, but also for growing potatoes.

Lujia Village and the last village are both in the northwest region, so Qin Yu estimates that the soil structure of the two places will not be too different.

"Mr. Qin, do you have any good suggestions for the current situation in Lujia Village?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked, a little bit of a test of his taste in it, "Seeing that the villagers can't eat enough, we are also heartbroken!" ”

This village chief Huang still seems to have a sense of responsibility, and it hurts to see that the villagers can't eat enough, Qin Yu glanced at him and said in his heart.

In fact, due to the geographical and soil conditions of Lujia Village, it is difficult to change the current situation of poverty. Otherwise, it would not be two thousand years, and no local official in the past dynasties could solve it.

Zhu Yuanzhang knows this.

He is just waiting now, waiting for Qin Yu to have any way to defy the heavens and do something that others can't do for thousands of years.

"It's not hard to feed the villagers." I only heard Qin Yu frown and said, "But if you want them to get rich, it's a little difficult." "After all, with such a high mountain, it would be a big project to build a road to the outside world.

Turning his head and looking at the mountain in front of him, the difficulty of building the road is probably no less than that of the Red Flag Canal.

If you can't build roads, you can't get rich.

Isn't it difficult to eat well? The hard thing is to make them rich!? Zhu Yuanzhang was dumbfounded when he heard this. The problem of making the villagers eat enough to eat is as simple as flipping over the palm of his hand in Qin Yu's opinion.

His focus is on making the villagers rich in the long run!!

Shame on you! Zhu Yuanzhang said in his heart. Let the villagers of Lujia Village get rich, he didn't even dare to think about it. Some things in the world are not afraid of being difficult to achieve, but I am afraid that I dare not even have dreams. He Zhu Yuanzhang himself is a living example, he used to be a beggar, who would dare to think that he could become an emperor in the future? It seems that there is a realm gap between me and Mr. Qin's thoughts, he thought to himself.

"Dare to ask Mr. Qin, how can we make the villagers have enough to eat?" Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his posture and asked Qin Yu for advice, "As for the issue of making the village rich, let's keep it for later." ”

"It's incredibly simple." Qin Yu said, "But I want to do an experiment at Lu Qingqian's house first, after all, I haven't seen the actual results, and other villagers will not take the liberty of planting another crop." The villagers in remote mountain villages are generally conservative in their thinking. "I remember that in that village last time, he and the village chief mobilized for a long time to get the villagers to plant Chinese medicinal herbs.

In the beginning, they were reluctant to change their previous planting habits, after all, they were left by their ancestors. I am even more afraid that the planting will fail, and even the previous harvest will be gone.

"Lu Qingqian's family?" Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Is that the daughter of Lu Dazhuang's family?" Before, it was his family who was taking care of you during the injury, and it was that little girl who was bringing you food and changing the medicine every day. ”

"It's his house." Qin Yu said.

"Okay, let's go back and tell Da Zhuang to let him cooperate with you." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Mr. Qin, you mean that as long as the villagers change to other crops, they can fill their stomachs?" ”

"Yes." Qin Yu said, "But that thing is still in my travel bag and I don't have it with me now, otherwise I will take it out and show it to you." About three or four months, that is, a quarter, I can make Lu Dazhuang's family not hungry. If other villagers see that Lu Dazhuang's harvest is good, they will follow suit, and we will be able to vigorously promote it when the time comes. ”

He didn't think it was a big deal, it was extremely ordinary. Potatoes, one or two dollars a pound are everywhere outside, so I didn't give 'Village Chief Huang' a detailed explanation.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't believe it in his heart, with his understanding of agricultural production, he couldn't think of any other crops in this world, the growth cycle was a quarter and there was such a high yield.

But since Qin Yu wants to try, let him try.

"Let's go, let's go to the village first." Zhu Yuanzhang changed the topic, "Mr. Qin, I said yesterday that the division of power of the family was the most fundamental reason for the chaos of the dynasty, we still didn't believe it before, but when I went back yesterday and thought about it carefully, it was really like this." I can't help but think of his personal experience, Lu Wei, as a county magistrate, has difficulty inserting him into Lujia Village as the village head.

"Mr. Qin, tell us why our Chinese people attach so much importance to the concept of clan surnames?"

"I said Uncle Huang, you are a little unprofessional." Qin Yu looked at him meaningfully, "You see that your village is so poor, you don't think about how to lead the villagers out of poverty and become rich, but you study these historical issues that have nothing to do with you all day long?" What can you do if you study it clearly, and you can't eat it as food. ”

"Hobbies, hobbies." Zhu Yuanzhang said embarrassedly, and arched his hand to Qin Yu, "Please also ask Mr. to give me advice." "Asking Qin Yu for advice on this question is the main purpose of Zhu Yuanzhang's visit to the village.
