Chapter 44: Keeping Spring
In February, the second dragon raised his head, and Mo asked the lazy dragon to press his head.
Although Cheng Nuo is an orphan, he still retains the habit of not getting a haircut in the first month of his previous life. It's not that he doesn't want to get a haircut, it's just that his uncle is too much, and he treats him well, so he naturally respects this custom. In addition, the implication of the second dragon raising its head in February is good, so the day of the haircut is fixed on this day.
Early in the morning, Li Laosan found a shaver from outside to come to the door to get a haircut.
"What kind of hair are you going to shave, sir?" As he spoke, the shaver took out the tools: "The new style of split head, back head, flat head, not to mention proficient, but definitely can handle it." ”
Looking at the neatly placed and clean tools, the razor and comb are recognized, but Cheng Nuo, the grate that was taken out in the end, couldn't understand it.
Pointing to this thing, he was a little puzzled: "What is this grate for?" ”
"That's for those old people to braid, what's the matter, do you want to tie one too?"
"No, the master just gave me an ordinary flat head."
Don't ask for much, just Mr. Lu Xun with the same paragraph.
Cheng Nuo is not a royalist, what are you doing with a watermelon head and a pig's tail, and their emperor Pu Yi took the lead in cutting his braids.
However, the master's craftsmanship is really good, after the haircut and shaved his face, plucked his ears, and gave a one-stop massage service to the head, face, neck, and shoulders.
In the end, the price is quite appropriate.
On the way to Peking University, Li Laosan pedaled three wheels in front of him, turned around and asked, "Will Mr. come back for dinner in the evening?" ”
"There is no class in the afternoon, I will go back a little earlier than usual, today is a day, what are you going to do at home?"
"Hehe, just wait for your words, let's eat dragon ears, dragon whiskers, dragon skins and dragon sons."
"And that said? It's almost time for an all-dragon banquet, Lao Li, tell me what you have? ”
Li Laosan exhaled the hot air and grinned: "The dragon skin is a cooking cake, the dragon ear is a dumpling, the noodles are a dragon's whiskers, the rice is a dragon's son, I almost forgot, and there is a baked cake sprinkled with sesame seeds, that is, dragon scale cake." ”
Cheng Nuo was stunned after hearing this, and then laughed: "Lao Li, is that why I went back to buy some braised chicken feet, which is dragon claws?" ”
Li Laosan shook his head solemnly: "That's a phoenix claw, you can't mix it up." ”
The two talked and laughed, and it was very interesting along the way.
When I arrived at the gate of Peking University, I saw students and teachers passing by from time to time, all of whom were greeting Cheng Nuo, Li Laosan suddenly sighed: "Sir, I still wanted to be aggrieved for you at the beginning, with your ability, you can definitely become an official, why do you want to be a teacher, now I really figured it out." ”
Cheng Nuo, who was about to help his men get out of the car, sat back after hearing this, and said with a smile: "What's wrong Lao Li, this is not your style, let you know more than two words and refuse to do it, today suddenly understand what big truth?" ”
"Hey, sir, this yard is one yard." Li Laosan turned his head and smiled innocently: "I'm just thinking, this person is like a grasshopper, no matter how hard he jumps high, the child grabs you and ties your legs with a rope, you can't do it." But there are many grasshoppers, and the black pressure that flies all over the ground is overwhelming, and it has become a locust plague that eats whatever it sees, and no one can do anything about it, and the big thing is done. Do you think I'm right? ”
"It's not rough, Lao Li can." Cheng Nuo couldn't help but sigh: "Don't say anything, go back and hurry up to read and write, and let Nidaner finish teaching you." ”
"Yes, sir, you might as well kill me."
Looking at the direction in which Li Laosan left, Cheng Nuo was relieved at the same time, but suddenly his thoughts were forked, and he thought of another meaning, that is, the people's eating problem.
turned around and found Guo Shouchun from the Academy of Sciences, and he was the only one he found who was willing to come to the master of agriculture.
"Lao Guo, are you busy? Do you know what day it is? ”
Guo Shouchun, who was looking down at the information on the table, raised his neck and helped his glasses: "What's wrong Lao Cheng, isn't it February 2nd today, February 2nd Dragon raised his head, and the big warehouse was full of small warehouses." ”
Cheng Nuo clapped his hands together and sat on the edge of the table: "By the way, it's the second half of the sentence, the big warehouse is full of small warehouses, the last few days are important days for farming, are you interested in going to the countryside with me, inspecting the agricultural situation, and practicing to know the truth." ”
Guo Shouchun immediately closed the book when he heard this, stood up and said happily: "Okay, when will we leave, I have long wanted to go to the field for a field investigation." ”
Although the education reform has been more radical, there are still some achievements so far, especially the increasing number of students who have signed up for Peking University, and some schools have begun to imitate it.
While Cheng Nuo is pleased with higher education, he is also worried about basic education. After all, no matter how well higher education is done, without the support of the bottom, it is also a castle in the air.
The people live on food.
Especially the dolls in the countryside have to go out to work at a young age, and they wear a pair of straw sandals all year round, and they can only survive by herding cattle for the landlord's family.
The stomach is not full, and it may not be easy for these parents to send their children to study.
Agriculture is also a long-term project, and it will take at least a few years to select and breed, and the sooner it is implemented, the better.
Although Cheng Nuo also knew that the best way for them was to fight the local tyrants and divide the land, the problem was that he didn't have this ability, so he could only leave it to the great man.
Since the feudal land ownership system, small-scale peasant production, and overpopulation are all problems that cannot be solved at present, the improvement and popularization of agricultural science and technology has become the best way to break through the current predicament.
Improving and popularizing agricultural science and technology and increasing crop yields are not only welcomed by the local ruling forces, but also do not touch the interests of those with vested interests; moreover, because landlords and other vested interests own a large amount of land, it is relatively easy to increase production and increase income, especially to popularize improved crop varieties, and the results of popularization are relatively large, and they can also be welcomed by the peasants.
Foreign invasions, warlord wars, political turmoil, economic constraints, etc., Cheng Nuo knows that this era is full of problems, but he also knows that these are not reasons for him not to do it.
Industrial, agricultural, and educational education is what he wants to do.
Cheng Nuo nodded: "The energy is limited, let's conduct a preliminary investigation around the surrounding areas of Beiping, feel the yield per mu, and see how they cultivate, of course, the crops are mainly wheat first, and then consider other crops when we have more people." Sooner rather than later, you clean up and we'll go. “
"Okay, I'll bring my sketchbook and collect some specimens when I come across valuable plants."
In fact, there is another consideration, that is, the advance layout can also deal with the dumping of agricultural products of the great powers after World War I.
With the recovery of their strength later, foreign noodles will be dumped into the domestic market in large quantities, resulting in farmers having to sell agricultural products cheaply, and the yield of wheat per mu at this time is only about 100 catties, which is one-tenth of the future generations, and they will not be able to cope with this crisis at all.
The grain is cheap and hurts the peasants, and the harvest is a disaster.
Coupled with natural and man-made disasters, the landlord's family has no surplus food.
