1274 The fruit is very sweet, but the meat is not fragrant.
No matter how the four major grain merchants compete, Jianghua is firmly on the Diaoyutai. This is the power of technology.
The power of science and technology is not only reflected externally, but also internally. There is also good news from the Western Branch of Huaxing Research Institute.
The original purpose of establishing the Western Branch was to help farmers and enrich farmers, so the researchers of the institute have been working hard for this purpose.
After unremitting efforts, researchers at the Western Research Institute have improved a new apple variety that is large, has good color, and most importantly, is particularly sweet, and does not require particularly high technology for planting.
Colleagues from the Western Research Institute loaded a truck full of apples from their experimental fields and sent them to the capital, euphemistically saying that they would let their colleagues in the capital enjoy the sweetness.
Jiang Hua picked up an apple without eating it, but showed it off to Zheng Tong: "Zheng Tong, look, this is an apple from our research institute. How does it compare with the apples we grew back then?"
"Go away, you don't show off like this?" Zheng Tong saw through Jiang Hua's intentions at a glance: "Whether it is the apples in our research institute now or the apples you planted back then, they are all your achievements. I have not denied that you used
Do you deserve to show off like this?"
The other people in charge who were chatting together immediately admired Zheng Tong. They would never have said such words. The teacher's words reflected very high wisdom.
In the evening, Jiang Hua took the apple home again and showed it off to Zhong Shanyue.
"Dad, do you still remember the apples I brought home in the 1970s? They were produced by rice oil at that time and I planted them myself." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "This apple was cultivated and improved by our research institute."
"So you're going to show off to me." Zhong Shanyue said with a smile: "You make so much money now, so you should give back to the farmer brothers. The country will never forget it."
Zhong Yuemin said jokingly: "My father, a lifelong revolutionary, will never forget our farmer brothers."
"Of course, forgetting the farmer brothers doesn't mean forgetting the roots?" Zhong Shanyue said seriously: "I used to be dissatisfied with Yuemin because he didn't do his job properly. Now I am very satisfied. He has been doing good for the farmer brothers in poor areas.
Helping those in need does not disgrace my reputation as Zhong Shanyue. As for Jiang Hua, I am even less worried. He has never forgotten to build the country."
Zhong Yuemin picked up an apple and handed it to Zhong Shanyue: "Dad, don't be emotional. You have been building the country all your life, and the country is getting better and better. It's time for you to enjoy it. We brothers are about to withdraw from the stage of history.
It will be Qiu Yun and his generation who will take over soon, and our country can expect to be rejuvenated in the future."
"That is, from my three grandchildren, I can see the responsibility of their generation. I can close my eyes in peace now."
"However." The old man changed the subject: "Jiang Hua, the thing you are studying in your research institute needs to be more down-to-earth. Although this apple is good, it is not closely related to the people's clothing, food, housing and transportation. You should learn more from that Mr. Yuan.
We must study to increase grain production, this is the right path."
"It's definitely a good idea to learn from Mr. Yuan." Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Do you still remember what I called him back then?"
"Yuan Zi." Zhong Shanyue said happily: "Yes, he has really done some earth-shaking great achievements. He deserves this word. I heard that Mr. is still researching it now."
"Yes, he is over seventy years old, and he still insists on conducting research in the fields." Jiang Hua nodded: "Our research institute and his research institute have also established a cooperation mechanism. Mr. Yuan will come here twice a year.
The results of research on rice will be shared by both parties."
"You should also study rice, but I feel that if you study rice, you should set up an experimental base in the south. That would be appropriate."
Jiang Hua shook his head: "We are not studying rice, we are studying rice genes, which is equivalent to providing technical backup for Mr. Yuan's research on increasing rice production."
Zhong Shanyue nodded with satisfaction: "That's okay, don't hold back Mr. Yuan."
In line with what Zhong Shanyue said, not to hold back Mr. Yuan, Jiang Hua decided to inspect the agricultural research group.
When the institute was expanding, the agricultural research team picked a piece of land close to the suburbs. At that time, the land was not close to the suburbs, it was just a suburb. Later, when the capital city expanded and the designated area became larger and larger, the land became larger and larger.
It has become closer to the suburbs, and the original suburbs have also become urban areas.
It takes a full two hours to drive from where Jianghua lives to the Research Agricultural Research Institute, which looks more like a farm than a high-tech research institute.
"Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Hua greeted the researchers enthusiastically: "In the suburbs, this place is more difficult and not as convenient as the urban area. We have indeed suffered over the years."
"It's not hard work." A researcher said jokingly: "The salary and research funding are always very small. Without leaders watching over us all the time, our work is very comfortable."
"This shows that everyone is quite conscious." Jiang Hua said cheerfully: "The Western Research Institute has just cultivated a particularly good apple. Do you have any exciting news here?"
"There is a lot of good news, it just depends on the leader which one you want to hear first."
"Then I'll give you the same report. Today I'm here to reward you based on your merits."
Next, Jiang Hua saw what is called a huge cabbage, a lettuce reaching into the sky. Of course, these rhetorical techniques are a bit exaggerated, but there is no doubt that the results are remarkable.
"Why are you studying only vegetables and fruits here?"
The person in charge smiled and said: "Boss, don't forget that our agricultural research group was originally established in Xinfadi and was transferred over later. The purpose of our original establishment was to ensure the vegetable basket project."
Jiang Hua nodded: "Yes, I forgot about this."
"There is a surprise waiting for you ahead."
So Jiang Hua saw a few fat pigs in a clean pigsty.
"Is this what you call a surprise?"
The person in charge nodded: "This is what I call a surprise. In order to solve the problem of meat scarcity, the whole country introduced a large number of breeding pigs from abroad. You said worriedly at the time that there was no problem in introducing foreign breeding pigs to solve the vegetable basket project, but they must also be protected.
Native pigs, that’s what we get.”
"This pig must weigh three hundred pounds."
"Eight months, three hundred pounds." The person in charge said proudly: "And there is more lean meat and less fat meat."
"I remember I checked, and it seems that foreign pigs are usually slaughtered in six months, weighing about 200 pounds." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "The biggest problem with local pigs in the past was the long feeding time. If you solve this problem, they can be eliminated from the market."
It’s a foreign pig, after all, the meat doesn’t taste good.”
