Chapter 114: Duel (2)
"Alas! This pre-arranged trust has finally come out, and if you don't come out, how can the trial project I prepared meet the world. Gao Fuji, who was originally a little melancholy, was very excited at this time, experiment! Trial! This kind of scientific bold assumption and careful verification method is finally about to be publicized to the public, and the era of innovation explosion is finally coming.
With a yearning for a better future, Gao Fuji strongly suppressed his excited heart, raised his hands slightly, and put them down together, and so on, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Seeing that the crowd was a little calmer, Gao Buer said: "This brother said it well, no matter how fanciful what he said, it is better to see the real thing, but the physical demonstration is a little time-consuming, please give a certain amount of patience." ”
As soon as he heard that it would take time, Zhao Xinwu on the other side felt a tightening in his heart, the four teams were the poorest, the farthest roads, and the biggest expenses, he just wanted to end this lame competition early and go back to his hometown.
The crowd whose curiosity was aroused, but gave Gao Buer a very enthusiastic response, and with the support of the people, Gao Buer and others came to a vacant land about one acre in size by the Slender West Lake, which had already been ploughed.
Gao Fuji pointed to the open space and said: "Our college students saw that people use nail rakes to intensively cultivate the fields, so they invented the long rake, with the help of livestock can quickly plough the land, in order to save time, I let people plow first, and now demonstrate the new farm tools for everyone." ”
The long rake is a common tool for farming in later generations, H-type, five 40 cm equal length supports, two two meters long beams, the beam is 30 cm long, a pointed, a blunt iron thorn, when the tip is downward, people stand on the beam, a cow pulls, can quickly level the land, can also remove most of the weeds, save time and effort.
For today's display, Gao Fuji specially found a docile bully and a strong farmer, after a few days of training, the farmer fell in love with this farm tool, it is really a good thing to improve the efficiency of land preparation, Gao Fuji promised, as long as he completed today's experiment, he would give him a set.
Seeing that it was almost over, Gao Fuji signaled the farmer to begin leveling the newly ploughed field, so the farmer stood on the rake and directed the ploughing oxen to start working.
I saw the ploughing oxen following the farmer's command, methodically walking in the potholed field, and the farmer standing on the rake as smoothly as standing on a surfboard, and flying up and down with the ups and downs of the field. The onlookers were amazed, and those with brains had already begun to look for something to record, but they couldn't find a suitable one, so they scratched their ears and cheeks in a hurry.
Gao Buer said with a smile: "You don't have to be anxious, I Qingbei College will not sweep away its own treasures, all the knowledge will be made public, after all, it is good knowledge that can solve practical problems, there are more people who use knowledge, the more people who study it, and the more people who study it, the more progress can be, learning is in the continuous exploration of progress, a person to explore is limited after all, there are more people to explore, there will be new things continue to be made, and then the society can continue to progress." ”
Regardless of whether they understood it or not, Gao Buer continued: "This new farm tool is called a rake, and the work efficiency is considered a preliminary experience, in order to save time, how about we move on to the next one?" Of course, those who don't want to leave can stay. After speaking, he deliberately glanced at Zhao Xinwu and the others, as if asking how they were.
Gao Buer continued: "Let's not talk about intensive farming, with new farming tools, everyone knows about intensive farming, and I will lead you to see the breeding base of our college." ”
"Isn't the good seed selected on the grain pile? Can it still be cultivated? "There was a heckling in the crowd.
Gao Fuji pretended to suddenly realize: "This benevolent brother asked well, we don't choose seeds from the grain pile, but in the wheat field when the ears of wheat are still light. ”
"Can wheat that does not grow ripe be a good seed? Ridiculous. Peywood spoke.
Gao Buer arched his hand and said: "Master Pei misunderstood, we don't use immature wheat as seeds, but select wheat with long ears, strong rhizomes, high stem diameter, and strong lodging resistance in the wheat field to transplant seeds to our laboratory for cultivation, and then select excellent ones to make seeds. ”
"I've seen people try this method, and although the harvest is good, it's a pity that it's too little, and it won't work after a few stubbles."
"This brother is a person who is well versed in farming, yes, the reason for this situation is that the first year is fine, with planting in the field, pollination is different, and the advantage is not obvious, which is similar to human genetics, so we have specially opened up a small experimental field, each field is planted with the same seeds, so that we can avoid the problem of dominance attenuation caused by messy pollination."
Saying that, Gao Buer took everyone to the constant temperature breeding laboratory first, and the explanation was handed over to the students, looking at the students who were busy in the large glass room at the constant temperature, people were amazed.
From seed selection, ploughing, fertilization, sowing, and water dispersion, the whole process is clearly displayed in front of people.
The students who explained excitedly said: "After research, crops can grow without being affected by the season at a specific temperature, which is also the method of cultivating good seeds, and we will try to plant in the large experimental field after cultivating a batch of good seeds, so that we can get a batch of excellent seeds, and sow them in the next year, so that the quality of the seeds can be ensured repeatedly." ”
Then Gao Buji led the crowd to the field that had been planted with grains, and everyone saw that the crops in this large field were really growing gratifyingly, and the height was almost the same, and the careful people lay down and counted the ears of wheat, and the grains were almost the same, and there were more than seven to ten grains of wheat than they usually saw, which was already a great achievement.
Gao Fuji said proudly: "Everyone has also seen that although artificial breeding is feasible, but the procedure is cumbersome, so we are ready to sell these seeds through the business, only two percent higher than the usual price, in order to speed up the promotion across the country, our college needs many people with talent in this field." ”
Even Yan Gushi, who was an opponent, couldn't help but speak: "This is a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, who can participate in it, it is definitely a great cause for the glory of the descendants, I didn't expect this new school competition to be so wonderful." Zhao Xinwu also nodded yes.
