After returning from the countryside, in order to speed up the work process, Cheng Nuo specially called Guo Shouchun, who was far away from the Beijing Agricultural College, and asked him to cultivate seeds in Sichuan while taking into account the promotion of chemical fertilizers.

With the support of this group of agricultural talents, Cheng Nuo can basically sit back and relax.

Thousands of miles away, Guo Shouchun, who was outspoken, still complained a little: "I said Dean Cheng, you are too domineering, seeing that my seeds for the new season are all sown, but you have ten, oh no, eleven dispatch telegrams to send me, you have to let me come."

I haven't waited for the 100 acres of crops to sprout, so I walked, didn't the previous efforts be in vain, if I want to say, we are just a bear breaking a stick, breaking one and throwing one, and in the end except for the one in the armpit, everything else is gone! ”

In the face of talented people, Cheng Nuo has always treated each other with courtesy, especially when he called people over to ask him to help, and no longer let people say a word, he really became a veritable "learning valve".

"Lao Cheng, don't you like to drink tea, I specially called you over to drink tea, don't you know, there are a lot of good teas in Sichuan." Brewing a cup of new tea for Guo Shouchun, Cheng Nuo smiled and said, "Look at the Mengding Yellow Bud I just picked up, I spent a lot of effort to get such a little bit." ”

Guo Shouchun was skeptical, sniffed carefully with the teacup, the sweet fragrance was rich, and after carefully looking at it for a while, he looked at its buds evenly, the soup was yellow and translucent, and it was even sweeter and mellow to drink a sip, so he was satisfied: "Yes, it is a good tea, and I am not a trip in vain." ”

Cheng Nuo laughed: "It's delicious, it's delicious, the rest of my drink is yours, you can drink it as much as you want, if it's not enough for you to drink, I'll ask for it for you, even if you use it to cook tea eggs it." ”

"The premise is to cultivate new seeds for you and promote the Golden Land, right?" Guo Shouchun didn't get caught by this tea coat shell, and sneered: "This tea is very expensive at first glance, and when you put the tea just now, I didn't see it with a painful face, they are all thousand-year-old foxes, so you don't need to play and chat with me." ”

Cheng Nuo smiled awkwardly, touched his chin and said: "The so-called broad and erudite, single-minded and refined, I barely got started when it comes to making chemical fertilizers, but I don't know so much about promoting agriculture, I don't want to think that our Academy of Sciences still has such a powerful person as you, so I invited you over." ”

"Yes, I don't dare to say anything else, but I still have some experience in agronomy." was praised by Cheng Nuo for his self-defeat, Guo Shouchun had a smug look on his face, and after taking a sip of tea, he said: "I don't take advantage of you, I specially brought more than ten students to Sichuan this time to support our work." ”

Thinking of his students, Guo Shouchun was relieved with a hint of pride: "I'm not afraid to give you a thorough explanation, these students are all carefully selected talents from Peking University, Beiyang University, Beijing Higher Normal School and other schools. ”

】

Seeing that the other party's expression didn't seem to be fake, Cheng Nuo said curiously: "No, I remember that a few students from Peking University went to help, when did your team grow to this extent?" ”

Guo Shouchun laughed loudly: "There were few people at the beginning, but it doesn't mean that there are fewer people behind." ”

couldn't help but ask Cheng Nuo carefully, plus Guo Shouchun was not a person who could hide things, Cheng Nuo didn't continue to ask a few more words, he himself told the whole process of the matter 1510.

It turned out that with the expansion of the scale of the experimental field, Guo Shouchun, who used to study "livestock", could hardly return to the original state of human resource embarrassment.

I encouraged my student assistants to return to their alma maters to publicize, but I didn't expect the effect to be quite good.

On the one hand, there is a lack of upward channels for continuing their studies in China, and today's Academy of Sciences is an opportunity for students who want to continue to explore in their majors, but are suffering from no way.

After all, not everyone has the opportunity, funds, and ability to study abroad.

On the other hand, the salary of the agricultural college is really good, not to mention that the salary is higher than the average level of civil servants.

The fact that Dayang's salary alone is enough to make many people envious.

Of course, in addition to the above two points, there are also various reasons such as admiring Cheng Nuo's reputation, aspiring to serve the country, and rejuvenating the country with agriculture, all of which have prompted many aspiring young people to join, and the threshold for applying for the examination is about to be broken.

Talking about this, Guo Shouchun said with emotion: "Actually, I didn't expect that so many students signed up before and after, and even some students from Tsinghua Academy came to say that they wanted to give up the opportunity to go abroad and stay in our academy to do research." ”

Cheng Nuo was surprised: "Is the signboard of our Academy of Sciences so loud, it is too exaggerated to give up even the opportunity to go to the United States." ”

Guo Shouchun's nose twitched slightly, and he glanced at Cheng Nuo: "How long have you not been back to Beijing, at the moment, our "National" journal is a hot commodity in major universities, thanks to this is only the enrollment of our agricultural college, if other colleges are carried out at the same time, I estimate that the door of our house will be broken down." ”

Cheng Nuo was also taken aback when he got the news, but then he thought that their "National" magazine is mainly popular science, which is the only one in China, and it cooperates with "New Youth" from time to time, so its influence is increasing day by day.

Thinking of the future development, Cheng Nuo pondered silently: "If there is a chance in the future, we still have to build a specialized scientific research institution, and the road of production, education and research must continue to be improved......

Before Cheng Nuo could think about it further, Guo Shouchun suddenly thought of something, took out a stack of paper from the cloth bag he was carrying, and solemnly placed it in front of him.

"I almost forgot, this is the magazine that Mr. Chen Zhongpu specially asked me to hand over to you before leaving, and I almost forgot about it just now because I was just drinking tea."

"This is ......" took the article, Cheng Nuo rolled his eyes a few times and hesitated: "Are they all the past few issues of "New Youth"? ”

"I'll see more than that." Guo Shouchun turned his head and frowned: "I remember that there is a new book by Mr. Yucai, saying that it was inspired by you, and I specially asked me to bring it to you to see, if you are not busy, you must make a preface." ”

"Do you believe me so much?" Cheng Nuo muttered to himself, but when he turned the book out, he was shocked: "Diary of a Madman"! It turned out to be this book? ”

Guo Shouchun's attention was attracted by this shout, and he twisted his neck and said curiously: "Have you read this book?" I remember that the book had not yet been published, and it was only a manuscript at the moment. But come to think of it, your relationship with Mr. Yucai is so good, it's not impossible to let him see it before binding. ”

Cheng Nuo hurriedly denied it: "No, no, no, I just heard Brother Yu Cai say it, but I didn't expect him to be so efficient, and he has already written a book in such a short time." ”

Guo Shouchun said with a smile: "It's not good, it's better than the bookseller chasing behind the ass every day, then again, in addition to magazines, there are many other articles in it, I guess you can read it at the following time." ”

Sure enough, there is an article by Mr. Li Dazhao on "Today", which argues that "I am alive, and we should not be tired of the 'present' and think about the 'past' and dream of the 'future' in vain, so as to waste the efforts of the 'present'." “

There is also Qian Xuantong's article "The Problem of China's Own Writing in the Future", which emphasizes that "if we want to make China immortal and make the Chinese nation a civilized nation in the 20th century, we must abolish Confucianism."

Hu Shi's "Theory of Literary Revolution in Construction" put forward the tenets of ten characters, that is, "literature in the Chinese language, the Chinese language in literature", indicating that it is necessary to create a literature in the Chinese language for China.

Other articles look fine, but when I read Hu Shi's article, I always feel that something is weird.

After reading it a few times, I finally realized that something was wrong.

It turns out that Dr. Hu believes in the last paragraph that the shortcomings of Chinese literature lie in the lack of materials, and where does the material come from, there are only three sources, namely, officialdom, prostitutes/women, and middle society without officials and prostitutes, and there is no other material.

Seeing this, I just want to laugh, isn't this a righteous and bright excuse for visiting the kiln.

When I asked where I went, I said bluntly.

But in fact, lingering in the pomegranate skirt, coveting rouge and heavy makeup.

Cheng Nuo, who knew Hu Shi's temperament, was fine, but Guo Shouchun on the side was furious, and he was so angry that he shouted: "This is the professor of Peking University, is he a great talent now, but he is just lying on a woman/belly all day long, he is really ashamed to be with this person!" ”

Cheng Nuo smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The social atmosphere is like this, he is just following the public, we just do our best." ”

In order to dispel Guo Shouchun's anger, Cheng Nuo flipped through the stack of articles and found two of them and seriously introduced: "It's still an article by Brother Deqian (Qian Xuantong), which is called "The Repercussions of the Literary Revolution" and says, 'Youth, if you still want to be a person in the twentieth century,

If you still want China to be regarded as a country in the 20 th century, then quickly summon up your courage and exert your perseverance to exterminate this most barbaric cult and this group of demons who are stirring up monsters and talking nonsense." ”

felt that it was not too enjoyable, and Cheng Nuo specially picked out the most classic paragraph of Brother Xun's "Diary of a Madman" and recited it aloud: "Everything must be studied to understand." In ancient times, people used to eat people, and I still remember it, but I don't know very well.

I opened the history and checked, this history has no age, and the words 'benevolence, righteousness and morality' are written on every crooked page...... With 4,000 years of cannibalism experience, although I didn't know it at the beginning, I now understand that it is difficult to see real people! ”

As soon as he read this paragraph, Guo Shouchun, who was upset, was also excited, and took the book away directly from Cheng Nuo's hand and recited it by himself.

When I read the excitement, I sweated profusely.

"Zhiyuan, this book is really well written, every word has a thousand powers, can I borrow it and read it for two days."

Cheng Nuo raised his eyebrows: "Of course you can, but the manuscript is precious, so don't damage it." ”

Guo Shouchun grinned and said: "This is nature, it's too late to cherish good books, and I can't do anything defaced." ”

After saying this, Guo Shouchun walked away quickly with his schoolbag, looking at it like that, I am afraid that I will not read it three times all night, and it will be difficult to dispel the excitement.

Cheng Nuo on the side was thinking in his heart that he must send a telegram to Brother Xun to urge him to change more, a mere copy of "Diary of a Madman" can not satisfy his appetite, and he has to write another long book, so that it is enjoyable to read.

At this moment, a head suddenly popped up outside the door.

It's none other than Jiang Jiang Zuo.

"Shouchun is gone?"

"Just left, what's the matter, what's wrong with him?"

"That's not it, it's just that I haven't seen him for a long time, and I miss my old classmates, and I want to get together with him."

"Why don't I call him over again, and I'll leave this house to make room for you to catch up?"

"Don't be, with his urine, you have to get me drunk, let's get down to business, anyway, he also came to Sichuan, and there will be a chance to meet in the future."

As he spoke, Jiang Jiangzuo put a telegram in front of Cheng Nuo and introduced: "The All-China Federation of Chambers of Commerce is preparing to hold the third general meeting in Tianjin, and we are invited to participate in the selection of the new manager. ”

"And this?" After receiving the telegram, Cheng Nuo looked at it and said, "Why haven't I heard of such a conference before, and suddenly found us for no apparent reason?" ”

Jiang Jiangzuo replied: "Actually, this is not the first time we have been invited to participate in the meeting, and they have asked someone to invite us over before. ”

Cheng Nuo was puzzled: "Why didn't you tell me before?" ”

Jiang Jiangzuo sighed: "During that time, you ate and drank in the laboratory, and no one could see you, where would I have the opportunity to inform you, not to mention that the scale of the factory under our college is not small, and the Chamber of Commerce does not issue an official invitation, which is a bit of a low-level meaning, and I can't make it to join in the fun." ”

Cheng Nuo nodded: "That's what I said, but this time people officially sent a letter this time, do you say we want to be invited?" ”

Jiang Jiangzuo thought for a moment and said categorically: "If I say, we'd better not wade into this muddy water." ”

Cheng Nuo was curious: "Why don't you go, we can't do all the supporting industries in the future, right?" Isn't it good to make the industrial chain bigger and longer, we eat meat, and everyone can still have a soup to drink? ”

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Jiangzuo said in a low voice: "As far as I know, the purpose of this conference is not simple, it is to resolve to send delegates to demand that the Beijing government stop the truce and protest against the signing of the "Sino-Japanese Military Agreement on Mutual Defense of the Enemy". ”

Swallowing his saliva, Jiang Jiangzuo leaned in and said: "They have taken a fancy to your social influence and are ready to elect you as one of the representatives, usually fine, but now Beijing has just borrowed 20 million yen from Japan, how can you say that those politicians in the public can easily abolish the agreement?" ”

The main contents of the so-called agreement are:

(1) China and Japan take the action of "jointly defending against the enemy";

(2) Japanese troops could be stationed in China during the war;

(3) When Japanese troops fight outside China's borders, China should send troops to show support;

(4) During the war, the two countries supplied each other with weapons and munitions.

These regulations mean that Japan can arbitrarily enter China's territorial waters and occupy Chinese facilities under the pretext of defending against the enemy, and the Chinese authorities must cooperate with the "Japanese army" and provide all convenient conditions.

When the contents of the agreement were revealed, the whole country was in an uproar.

Students studying in Japan marched in Tokyo to oppose the "Sino-Japanese Military Agreement on Mutual Defense against the Enemy" and demanded the return of Qingdao, but more than 100 Japanese police arrested more than 100 students, and more than 1,000 students went on strike to return to China.

Not to be outdone, more than 2,000 students in Beijing alone gathered at the presidential palace to petition for the abrogation of the Sino-Japanese military agreement.

Even a student cut off the middle finger of his left hand on the spot, and wrote in blood "The day the eucalyptus is canceled, it will be the time for my life".

In the face of such a huge public opinion, President Feng Guozhang also had to meet with student representatives and speak out to appease.

But in reality, it just doesn't solve the problem.

The domestic new * movement is in full swing, and Cheng Nuo's chemical industry is about to become bigger and stronger.

Everything is going in a good direction.

But suddenly came out like this.

Cheng Nuo was so angry that he scolded the street directly: "I am doing business here, and the public behind me is pulling my hind legs, what a group of rice buckets!"

It's not good to cooperate with anyone, but to find a little Japan, don't talk about the back, just talk about the present.

Everyone Mao Zi said that as long as Britain and Japan sneak attack the port, he will fight the devil if he doesn't fight anyone, you guys are good, and now you are in a hurry to send people to the head! ”
