"Send this paper to Team Leader Bai."

"Yes!"

Yu Zecheng wrote down a number on the slip of paper, handed it to the people who followed, and then led the people to the next house.

"Tian Erniu, Ma Liping, Feng Heng, Shan Quanmin."

Brigade headquarters, in front of the wall.

As Bai Ling pronounced out a personal name, several people in front of her quickly found the corresponding position, and then drew the word 'positive' with chalk below.

Looking at the long and short word 'positive', Bai Ling's gaze wandered back and forth, as if to find something different.

On the other side, Yang Xiaotao, Teacher Yuan, and Hao Pingchuan led people to the experimental field outside Xiaoping Village.

Standing on the ridge at the edge of the field, I saw the ruined rice fields all silent and barren.

From the town to here, Yang Xiaotao has seen many rice fields on the way, and the seedlings in those rice fields are growing green, clusters, layers, and from a distance, they look like a grid, like a landscape painting.

But in front of him, several rice fields fell down one by one, and the surrounding rice fields were destroyed, and the eyes were full of desolation.

Rice seedlings that once thrived are now in disarray.

The ground was covered with broken rice seedlings, and the patches were worn out lifelessly, as if a piece of oil paint had been erased and left blank compared to the surrounding rice fields.

There were several guards standing around, and at this time, there were still people cleaning up the rice fields.

These are all researchers of hybrid rice.

Teacher Yuan stood aside, sad and unconcealed.

Taking off his shoes, Mr. Yuan walked into the rice field step by step, reached out and picked up a rice seedling, the original green leaves were stuck to the sludge, and the grass stem was trampled off.

Teacher Yuan stretched out his hand to correct the broken seedlings, but every time he helped them, the seedlings would tilt again.

The backbone is broken, and it's useless to help it.

Yuan Lao put down the seedling, and then walked forward.

Yang Xiaotao handed the shoes to Hao Pingchuan, then pulled up his pants and heels behind them, and several people did not speak, because they didn't know what to say.

Teacher Yuan followed him to a rice field and pointed to the messy scene in front of him, "This is the planting area of sterile male plants. ”

"It's a pity!"

At this time, the students inside saw Teacher Yuan coming and came over one after another.

Many people still have tears on their faces.

"Teacher Yuan, there is not a single plant left!"

The leading girl had muddy water on her face, two rice seedlings in her hands, and her voice was crying.

"Teacher Yuan, why did they do this, this, this was hard to find, why did they destroy it."

"yes, why, we're doing it for their good."

"Teacher Yuan, how is Yu Hua, is there anything wrong?"

"Yes, is Senior Brother Yu Hua okay? Is Sister An accompanied? ”

A group of people couldn't figure it out, and asked loudly around Teacher Yuan, and some people were concerned about Yu Hua's safety.

Teacher Yuan looked at everyone, and then said, "Yu Hua is still in the hospital, but the doctor said it's okay. ”

"As for what it is, I don't know."

Speaking of this, he looked at Yang Xiaotao on the side and introduced to everyone, "Students, this is Comrade Yang Xiaotao." ”

"He is also the first comrade Yang Xiaotao in my country to be recognized by foreign experts in the field of genetic hybridization and published papers in foreign journals."

"At the same time, he is also the leader of the technical team in our hybrid rice research project."

Several people's eyes immediately swept towards Yang Xiaotao.

For Yang Xiaotao, who is also a member of the hybrid experiment, he is no stranger to the name Yang Xiaotao.

The paper he wrote about the hybrid corn was posted on the bulletin board of their institute.

Everyone here can express and understand the ideas and processes in the paper.

In particular, An Ran and Yu Hua once went to Sijiu City to listen to Yang Xiaotao's class, and many novel theories were even more respected.

"Hello students."

Yang Xiaotao showed a warm smile and looked at the several people in front of him, who were about the same age as him.

"I'll give you the answer to that question."

Yang Xiaotao walked aside, picked up a broken seedling, and came to him again.

"Do you know what will happen next when this seedling grows up?"

"We can use this kind of seedlings and cross them with dominant seedlings to obtain superior rice seedlings, which is likely to have the high-yield rice we need."

"Can anyone tell me what the yield per mu of ordinary rice fields is now?"

Yang Xiaotao suddenly asked, the people around looked at each other, and finally the girl who spoke first spoke, "Teacher Yang, now an acre of good watered fields can produce more than 300 catties, a little worse than 200 catties." ”

"Yes, yes."

After boasting, Yang Xiaotao's face became serious, "When we get high-yield rice, this yield will increase by at least 30 percent, or even 50 percent, or even double." ”

"At that time, planting one acre was equivalent to one and a half acres of yield."

"Don't think it's impossible, because high-yielding corn has proven that doubling yields per acre is a common thing."

"And on this basis, we can further research and cultivate better super rice, and it is possible to yield 1,000 catties per mu at that time."

"So you think that the enemy will let us make such a grain that is beneficial to the country and the people, and is of great significance to the revolutionary construction?"

The people around looked at each other, and they all showed anger.

"Teacher Yang, they're so bad, they just can't see others good."

"If you do this, you're still not a Chinese person, it's just a bunch of brutes who have forgotten their roots."

"Yes, my heart is too bad, I don't want to be good myself, and I don't let others be strong, our nation is spoiled by this kind of selfish villain."

Several people scolded.

In their minds, no matter what their stance is, what is meaningful to the future of the nation, if they don't support it, how can they destroy it?

Yang Xiaotao listened from the sidelines and did not comment on their thoughts.

It can only be said that it is too simple.

"Students, now is not the time to complain."

Yang Xiaotao stopped everyone's indignation, and then looked at the rice field in front of him.

"We now need to find the seedlings that have not been destroyed as soon as possible, even if there is only one plant, it is hope."

"Yes, students, hurry up and find it."

Teacher Yuan reacted, looked at the ruined rice fields on the side, and a little hope rose in his heart.

"Yes, yes, let's go find it."

"Hurry up and find it."

As the words fell, several people quickly dispersed and ran towards several rice fields.

Even if you only find one, you'll be fine.

Yang Xiaotao also separated from Teacher Yuan and walked to the rice field on the side.

At this time, Xiaowei was already shuttling through the rice fields, looking for the seedlings with the most energy.

When he came to the rice field, Yang Xiaotao reached out to the ground to look for it, and took the opportunity to summon Xiaowei to him and ask about the situation.

Xiaowei exchanged for a while, and Yang Xiaotao frowned.

In Xiaowei's eyes, these rice seedlings have been destroyed for too long, and many of them have withered and lost their vitality.

"Can you use your power to save life?"

"Woohoo!"

Xiaowei lowered her head and swung on the broken root seedlings.

"Can't you? That's a tricky thing. ”

Originally, Yang Xiaotao wanted to let Xiaowei take action and treat several rice seedlings, although there were not many, but they could also retain a vitality.

Let the experiment continue.

But now, Xiaowei made it clear that no.

First, the seedlings here have lost a lot of energy, and even withered, even if she forcibly added energy to it, so that the seedlings came back to life, but because she did not understand the mechanism of male sterility, in case the energy filled it, so that the final seeds could not inherit the shape of male sterility, it would be a lot of fun.

If you don't do it well, it will also cause trouble for the experimental team and make their research direction wrong.

This is also what Yang Xiaotao considered.

Rice is not like corn.

The various mechanisms of corn, Xiaowei has long been ripe.

But this rice is really the first time.

"Forget it, you help find it, is there anything that can be saved."

Shout~~

Xiaowei agreed, and then quickly shuttled under the straw leaves.

At this time, everyone has been seriously looking for the 'fish that slipped through the net', but unfortunately, after looking for more than half an hour, the sun has been obliquely in mid-air, and the sun is scorching the earth.

"No, we don't."

"I didn't find out that these people are too immoral, and they cut them with a sickle, which is really too deceitful."

Several students searched carefully and searched, but none of them were intact, and they were very irritable.

Teacher Yuan was beating his waist on the side, looking solemn.

After carefully looking for it this time, he didn't gain anything.

There are all broken and destroyed seedlings.

And in this paddy field, he also found seedlings from other fields.

In other words, not all of the seedlings in this are sterile.

I don't know if these people did it intentionally or unintentionally.

In short, these mixed seedlings increase the difficulty of increasing sterile line seedlings.

Several people complained beside Teacher Yuan, and Yang Xiaotao, who was not far away, also straightened up, looking at the seedlings in his hand that were picked up by him, and there were defects one by one.

Reluctantly put it on the soil ridge on the side.

Just when Yang Xiaotao was about to give up, Xiaowei's call came from his heart.

Yang Xiaotao walked to the right quietly.

Soon under Xiaowei's guidance, he went to a well, and then looked down.

In an instant, I saw three or four rice seedlings floating on the surface of the water in a half-meter-diameter well.

Xiuxiu~~

"What? Are these rice seedlings energetic? Are you sure? ”

Woohoo!

"Is it the same as the seedlings in the rice fields?"

Xiuxiu!!

After Yang Xiaotao heard Xiaowei's explanation, he immediately turned around and shouted not far away, "Brother Yuan, this, here." ”

Hearing Yang Xiaotao's shout, the first to react was Hao Pingchuan, who ran over with two pairs of leather shoes, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”

Teacher Yuan also ran over behind him and quickly came to the entrance.

The students also rushed over, one by one tilting their heads and looking down.

"This, this is a seedling?"

"Quick, get it up."

Teacher Yuan shouted in surprise, and was about to reach out to go down, but was stopped by Yang Xiaotao on the side.

"Dude, you can't reach it."

Teacher Yuan came back to his senses when he heard this, but he looked at the seedlings in the water and was anxious.

Yang Xiaotao looked left and right, and finally froze on a teenager.

"This classmate, come here."

This person was thin and not short, and he heard Yang Xiaotao tell him to hurry up.

"Classmate, you have also seen that the mouth of this well is not wide, and it is quite deep."

"If you believe me, I'll put you down, take the seedling, and pull it up."

"Teacher Yang, I am willing."

As soon as Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, this person replied firmly, and nodded to Teacher Yuan as he spoke, and there were encouraging looks from the surrounding classmates.

Teacher Yuan had a long mouth, and he couldn't say polite words, and finally could only reply with a positive look.

"Okay, don't worry, there will be no problem."

On the side, Hao Pingchuan also came over and moved his wrist, "Yes, my old Hao is here, you can rest assured." ”

Saying that, the young man lay directly at the mouth of the well, and in the eyes of everyone's worry and expectation, Yang Xiaotao pulled his right foot with both hands, Hao Pingchuan clasped his left foot with both hands, and the two slowly sent it inside.

"Flashlight, who has a flashlight."

Teacher Yuan shouted, and the guard not far away immediately ran over and sent a flashlight.

When the boy had fully entered the well, his palm finally reached the surface of the water.

Teacher Yuan lay on the side, and the flashlight hurriedly went down.

"Caught, caught."

The young man's voice came from below, Yang Xiaotao and Hao Pingchuan glanced at each other, and instantly pulled the young man out with force.

"Look, it's okay, there are roots, and they haven't broken."

"I found it, that's right, this way, it's the same as a sterile strain, this is a sterile strain."

Teacher Yuan held four rice seedlings in both hands, and the whole person became excited.

It seems that a long drought is a rainstorm, as if the lost person sees the lights of home.

"Quick, find a place to plant it."

"No, go back to the base, go back to the base and plant."

Teacher Yuan shouted, and didn't care about talking to Yang Xiaotao, so he ran out barefoot, laughing as he ran.

Yang Xiaotao smiled behind him and walked forward step by step.

And Hao Pingchuan on the side rubbed his arm, looking at Yang Xiaotao's relaxed appearance, which was very incomprehensible.

When he pulled it at the end, he didn't use any force at all, and it was completely Yang Xiaotao who pulled it up alone.

"This guy is not small."

"Lao Hao, hurry up, let's go to the village to have a look."

Yang Xiaotao watched Teacher Yuan and a few people hula get into the car and run to the base, but they didn't follow.

"Okay, right away."

At this time, Bai Ling, who was standing outside the team headquarters, stared at a name with only three lines, and her face was cold.
