For Cheng Nuo, why not choose faster-acting fertilizers or pesticides in agriculture? It’s because the time is not yet ripe.

In 1913, Germany established the world's first synthetic ammonia chemical plant, but it would have to wait until 1920 after World War I to mass-produce urea, and the organic chemical pesticides DDT, diquat and 666 would have to wait until 30 or 40 years.

Era.

Although for time travellers, counterfeiting is much faster than research and development, it is difficult to preserve the results after actually using them.

For modern industry, in addition to the turbulent environment, the biggest enemy is the comprador stage. It is from this time that it is better to buy than to make.

Help the great powers to search for raw materials for production, and then dump industrial products into the country to attack the domestic industrial and agricultural economy.

The most typical one is the White Party. In 1941, our first batch of penicillin samples were developed in China. By 1946, they were improved and could be mass-produced. The technology was better and the price was lower than in the West, but it was not available in the domestic market.

There is a ripple, and mass production will have to wait until liberation.

Song Ziwen said bluntly: "There is as much penicillin as you want in foreign countries. You can just buy it. There is no need to make it domestically."

Why is this so? Because the tariff revenue generated by the compradors is their financial backbone. If they hit the domestic industry, they can sell it at a higher price, and the private profits derived from it will be greater.

The seeds are simple. Many technologies are imported from the West. Before the wings are hardened, there is no conflict of interest with them, and they can even use compradors.

It was late at night, and Cheng Nuo, who was still sorting out materials in the office, felt a little cold and turned on the stove again: "It's really uncomfortable to be cold in spring. It rained and I had to put on a cotton-padded jacket. Recently, I went to Peking University to take medicine.

There are quite a few teachers and students.”

Guo Shouchun didn't care. He bent over the table and took notes: "This little drop in temperature is nothing. We will have to conduct inspections all over the country later. We may encounter different weather conditions. We will go back and exercise more."

"I can't tell others, but Lao Guo, you have to take care of yourself." Cheng Nuo clapped his hands, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over: "I'm waiting for you to accumulate experience in selective breeding, cultivate more agricultural talents, and promote it to other countries in the future.

On the crops.”

Selective breeding is a long-term project that requires efforts on a year-by-year basis. It does not mean that Cheng Nuo is a time traveler, but it is unrealistic to be able to harvest high-yield and stable-yield seeds the following year.

Therefore, we must take advantage of the short "peace" time in the country when the great powers are busy getting stuck in the quagmire of World War I, and study it as early as possible.

Otherwise, when they slow down to resume production and dump industrial finished products, it will be difficult to turn around.

Moreover, after accumulating experience and cultivating talents in wheat, we can then extend it to rice, soybeans and cotton by analogy, and carry out selective breeding at the same time. After all, more people in China eat rice, and the cotton textile industry cannot always use foreign cloth.

When the seed cultivation is about to be completed, there will be no problem in releasing chemical fertilizers and pesticides and quietly sending them to northern Shaanxi.

Guo Shouchun was noncommittal, took the hot tea and nodded: "But Lao Cheng, we have talked a lot these days. I think many of your ideas are very advanced, but why do you prefer the United States and the old European countries when introducing countries?

Their agricultural strength seems to be stronger, shouldn’t we learn from them?”

"I know what you're talking about, but will European countries hand over technology to us so easily?" Cheng Nuo pulled a chair over and sat down on the back of the chair: "No matter how delicious other people's food looks,

, people close the door and don’t teach, so we can only stare and drool.”

“But the United States is not a good thing.”

Cheng Nuo raised his eyebrows: "Have you forgotten, there is a 'Student Volunteer Overseas Missionary Movement' in the United States, and it is not only their Lord who has been passed on, but also others."

"There are also scientific knowledge such as biology, medicine, and agriculture. Oops, why did I forget this?" Guo Shouchun patted his forehead and suddenly realized: "Although foreign devils say one thing and do another, preaching is true.

So serious, I went to a missionary school in middle school."

The so-called student volunteer overseas missionary movement in the United States originated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Different from traditional rigid missionaries, the movement limited participants to college students from the beginning. After touring colleges and universities across the country, it recruited

, after specialized missionary course training, dispatch to overseas places is finally completed.

As the activities progressed, a lot of knowledge was also brought into the country, the most typical of which was the introduction of large peanuts from the United States. During this period, many Christian universities were also born, such as Yenching University, Jinling University, Lingnan University, and Fujian University.

Concordia University, etc., covering multiple disciplines.

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

export country.

Therefore, it is really unjustifiable not to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune for imperialism.

Cheng Nuo held up his chin and said with a smile: "They are not here to do good deeds, they are also here to get our stuff. When you go out for inspection, you should also go to the church university to see if they have any good things, so that you can know the basics.

I feel more at ease, and it would be better if we could 'cooperate'."

When talking about the word cooperation, the nasal sound is particularly emphasized.

Guo Shouchun wrote down his notes again and joked: "We are all scholars, so it would be unethical for you to make a fortune. But it just so happened. I thought so too. Who made our Academy of Sciences so poor that we, a local monk, came to them?"

It’s not too much for Western priests to make a point of fate.”

"Although there is no news about the U.S. patent, I already have other channels to raise money, so don't worry." Cheng Nuo scratched his head. If you are not an entrepreneur, you don't know how expensive food and rice are. Especially when you want to support the Academy of Sciences, you need money everywhere.

.

However, when I heard the word "scholar", I still couldn't help but sneer: "People are doing in-depth investigations on our hydrology, soil quality, and mineral resources. Now their understanding of domestic rural areas is not necessarily worse than you and me.

Some so-called explorers are still hunting our giant pandas in western Sichuan."

"Giant panda?" Guo Shouchun turned around and touched the frame of his glasses with his pen, curiously asking: "What species is that?"

Cheng Nuo was suddenly startled. He stopped talking about the national treasure and said, "Oh, that's the 'big panda' discovered by the Frenchman David. The black and white bear is relatively rare."

"Oh, I remembered it. I saw the picture of the specimen in the newspaper. I will definitely investigate it carefully when I go to Sichuan Province for inspection."

Cheng Nuo wiped his sweat quietly and specifically told: "If you are lucky enough to encounter them, be sure not to hunt them down. Protect them well, and it is best not to leak any information."

"After all, he is a bear. I should be the one who runs away when I encounter him, but I must cherish my own." After dipping his ink, Guo Shouchun was still writing furiously: "But Lao Cheng, how did you get the funds?"

"For school-enterprise cooperation, look for flour industrialists with strength and ambition to cooperate."

"But."

"Okay, there are not so many. But, what time is it? It's time to go back and rest. Let's go. I'll treat you to Chaos on the way."
