Chapter 50: Answering Questions

For Cheng Nuo, why not choose fertilizers or pesticides that have faster results in agriculture is that the time is not yet ripe.

In 1913, Germany established the world's first synthetic ammonia plant, but it was not until 1920, after the First World War, that urea could be mass-produced, and the organic chemical pesticides DDT, diquatat and 666 had to wait until the thirties and forties.

Although imitation is much faster than research and development for the traverser, it is difficult to keep the results when it is actually taken out.

Because for modern industry, the biggest enemy, in addition to the turbulent environment, is the comprador stage, and it is better to buy than to build from this time.

Help the great powers to loot raw materials for production, and then dump industrial products into the country, and hit the domestic workers' and peasants' economy.

One of the most typical is the White Party, in 1941 the first batch of penicillin samples were developed in China, and by 1946 it could be mass-produced after improvement, and the process was better and cheaper than that of the West, but there was no ripple, until large-scale production had to wait until after liberation.

Song Ziwen said bluntly: "You can buy penicillin as much as you want in foreign countries, and there is no need to make it in China." ”

Why, because the customs revenues generated by the compradors are the backbone of their finances, and the blow to domestic industry can sell them at a higher price, and the private profits from them will be more lucrative.

The seeds are simple, many of the technologies are imported from the West, and there is no conflict of interest with them before the wings are hardened, and even compradors can be used.

Late at night, Cheng Nuo, who was still sorting out materials in the office, felt a little cold, and put the stove on again: "This spring cold is really uncomfortable, and I have to put on a small padded jacket after rain. ”

Guo Shouchun didn't care, he knelt down in front of the table and took notes: "What is this cooling, I will have to go to all parts of the country to inspect it later, maybe I will encounter any more weather, go back and exercise more." ”

"It's hard for me to say anything about others, but Lao Guo, you have to take care of your health." Cheng Nuo clapped his hands, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over: "Waiting for you to accumulate experience in seed selection and breeding, cultivate more agricultural talents, and promote it to other crops in the future." ”

Seed selection and breeding is a long-term project, which needs to be worked on in years, not that Cheng Nuo is a traverser, and he can harvest seeds with high and stable yield the next year, which is very unrealistic.

Therefore, it is necessary to study as soon as possible while the great powers are busy with the quagmire of World War I and the short period of "peace" at home.

Otherwise, when they recover enough to resume production and dump manufactured goods, it will be difficult to turn over.

Moreover, after accumulating experience and cultivating talents in wheat, it will be promoted to rice, soybeans and cotton, and at the same time select and breed, after all, there are more people who eat rice in China, and the cotton textile industry cannot always use foreign cloth.

Wait until the seed cultivation is about to be completed, and then introduce chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and quietly send them to northern Shaanxi.

Guo Shouchun was noncommittal, took the hot tea and nodded: "But Lao Cheng, we have also talked a lot in the past few days, and I think many of your ideas are very advanced, but why are you more inclined to the United States when introducing countries, the agricultural strength of the old Europe seems to be stronger, shouldn't we learn from them?" ”

"I know what you said, but is it so easy for the European countries to hand over the technology to us?" Cheng Nuo pulled over a chair and sat on the back of the chair: "No matter how delicious other people's things look good, people don't teach them when they close the door, so we can only stare and drool." ”

"But the United States is not a good thing......"

Cheng Nuo raised his eyebrows: "Forget, there is a 'student volunteer overseas missionary movement' in the United States, and it is not only their Lord who has passed on, but also others. ”

"There's also science about biology, medicine, and agronomy, and oh, how did I forget that." Guo Shouchun patted his head and suddenly realized: "Don't look at the foreign devils who say one thing and do another, but the mission is really serious, I went to the church school in middle school." ”

The so-called student volunteer overseas missionary action in the United States originated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and unlike the traditional rigid missionaries, the movement limited the main body of participation to the college student group from the beginning, and finally completed the dispatch to overseas places after traveling to colleges and universities across the country, recruiting, and training in special missionary courses.

With the development of the activity, a lot of knowledge has also been brought into China, the most typical is the introduction of American large peanuts. During this period, many Christian universities were born, such as Yenching University, Jinling University, Lingnan University, Fujian Union University, etc., covering a wide range of disciplines.

Of course, a large number of crops, plants and other varieties collected from various parts of the country were brought back to the United States, which greatly enriched the agricultural germplasm resources of the United States, and they further improved on the basis of our soybean varieties, and are still the world's largest soybean exporter today.

Therefore, it is really unreasonable not to take advantage of this opportunity to get a piece of imperialist wool.

Cheng Nuo held his chin and said with a smile: "People don't come here to do good deeds, it's also for our things, when you go out to investigate, you also go to the church university to see if they have any good things in their hands, know the roots and know the bottom of the heart, it would be better if you could 'cooperate'." ”

When it comes to the word cooperation, the nasal accentuation is specifically emphasized.

Guo Shouchun wrote the notes again, and teased in his mouth: "Everyone is a scholar, and you have to knock on it, it's not authentic." But just now, I think so too, who made our Academy of Sciences poor and white, it is not too much for our local monks to find them Western priesthood. ”

"Although there is no news on the US patent side, I already have other ways to raise money, so don't worry." Cheng Nuo scratched his head, he didn't know that firewood and rice were expensive, especially if he wanted to support the Academy of Sciences.

However, when I heard the word "scholar", I couldn't help but scoff: "People are doing deep research on our hydrology, soil quality, and minerals, and now our understanding of the domestic countryside is not necessarily worse than that of you and me, and now there are so-called explorers who are still hunting and killing our giant pandas in western Sichuan." ”

"Giant pandas?" Guo Shouchun turned his head and touched the frame of his glasses with his pen, and asked curiously: "What kind of species is that?" ”

Cheng Nuo was suddenly startled, and the national treasure called Shunzui was confiscated at once, so he had to prevaricate: "It's the 'big cat bear' found by the Frenchman David, a bear with black and white colors, the number is relatively rare and rare." ”

"Oh, I remember, I saw the picture of that specimen in the newspaper, and when I went to Sichuan Province to investigate, I must investigate it carefully."

Cheng Nuo quietly wiped his sweat and specially instructed: "If you are lucky, you must not hunt and kill them, protect them well, and it is best not to leak even information." ”

"I'm also a bear anyway, and I should be the one who runs when I meet him, but I must cherish my own." Dipping it in ink, Guo Shouchun was still writing hard: "But Lao Cheng, how did you get that fund?" ”

"School-enterprise cooperation, looking for strength and ambition flour industrialists to cooperate."

"But ......"

"Okay, how can there be so much, but, what time is it, it's time to go back and rest, go, please eat chaos on the way."
