The first thousand one hundred and eighteen chapters of the people's hero
"Comrade Wang Ping, there is no problem in investing another 40,000 yuan in the cooperative. Judging from the operation of the cooperative in one year, it not only increased the income of ordinary people, but also made a very good income for myself. Killing two birds with one stone!" the deputy commander replied very readily.
"We fully support this good project."
"Both of you know that we have money in our pockets now, not to mention 40,000 yuan, but even 100,000 yuan, I will approve it here!"
Wang Ping quickly replied: "Chief, you don't need so many!"
"Haste makes waste. Two thousand cattle are the limit that the border area can digest at present. Any more will be a waste."
"After next year's autumn harvest, if nothing unexpected happens, we will have an income of nearly 100,000 yuan. By then, we can add 2,000 cattle by ourselves without the border district government investing an ocean!"
"I believe you on this!" the deputy commander replied very firmly. It was obvious that he was full of confidence in Wang Ping.
Then the conversation changed and he continued to ask: "What I am most concerned about now is the seed laboratory you just mentioned!"
"If the grain seeds produced in the laboratory can really achieve the purpose of increasing production, then you, Wang Ping, will be a hero of the people and benefit the country and the people!"
"Tell me the truth, how confident are you about this!"
"At least 70% sure!" Wang Ping answered with certainty.
Although Wang Ping did not have a background in agriculture, and could even be said to know nothing about agriculture, he was still very clear about the principles of hybrid seeds. If he remembers correctly, it was in his high school biology textbook.
With professional agricultural experts and his own ideas, Wang Ping believes that it won’t be long before hybrid seeds appear.
Wang Ping has no intention of letting the quality and yield of those seeds exceed those of later generations. As long as they can reach half the level of later generations, it can also make the grain yield exceed 400 jins per mu, or even 500 jins!
A very satisfied smile appeared on the deputy commander's face: "Okay, very good!"
"I know your character Wang Ping. I'm only 70% sure about it when I say it, but I'm at least 80% or even 90% sure about it in my head!"
"The headquarters will definitely give full support to this matter. If there is anything you need help from the headquarters, just ask. If you can't find me, just ask Minister Li!"
"There are indeed two things!" Wang Ping hesitated and replied.
"The first thing is talent. I and the headquarters can help find talents in this field in the country. As long as they are real talents, our cooperative is willing to pay twice their current salary to hire him to work, and directly sign a contract with him!
"
"The second problem is land. Cultivating seeds requires a lot of land. I need a piece of land that is large enough and can be closed and confidential!"
"I'll do it for you today!" the deputy commander replied with certainty.
A few days later, a small basin with flat land and only a dozen or so villagers was found.
After all the villagers were relocated, the land, which could be cultivated into 500 acres of fertile farmland, was directly allocated to the cooperative.
Zhang Qingliang was an agricultural talent recruited from Chongqing by his father-in-law. What Wang Ping did not expect was that Zhang Qingliang was actually a party member and organized an underground party that was developed three years ago.
For such a talent, Wang Ping did not hesitate and directly appointed him as the head of the laboratory.
"Mr. Zhang, I plan to build a constant-temperature greenhouse in this area. You have studied abroad and you should know this kind of greenhouse. If you need money, we will give you money. If you need manpower, we will give you manpower. In addition, we have also found three
I have a college student as your assistant. I wonder if it can be completed within a month!" Wang Ping asked, pointing to the connected land in front of him.
Mr. Zhang hesitated for a long time and replied: "No problem~ You can buy plastic film in Xi'an. It is not military supplies and can be shipped back easily!"
"The most troublesome thing is to heat up the greenhouse. We can build several stoves in the greenhouse, which should be able to meet the temperature requirements!"
"Then I'll leave it to Mr. Zhang..." Wang Ping said with great satisfaction.
"In the next month, several agricultural experts will come over. By then, you will be the backbone of this laboratory, and you, Mr. Zhang, will be their head. I will assign a few college students to each of your experts as assistants.
Our laboratory will be officially established!"
Mr. Zhang hesitated for a while but couldn't help but asked: "Comrade Wang Ping, until now I still don't understand why you asked me to set up this laboratory. The greenhouse is about to scream, why don't you tell me?
"
Wang Ping replied with a mysterious face: "When the laboratory is established, I will definitely tell you everything~"
One month passed in a blink of an eye. The grain output in Yanchang County shocked the entire border region government, and it was then designated as a pilot county by the border region government.
County Magistrate Ouyang Antong also received awards from the Border Region Government and was personally received by the Deputy Commander-in-Chief. Although he was still extended the title of County Magistrate, due to his achievements in more than half a year, his rank was directly raised one level by the government.
More importantly, Yanchang County is a pilot county for the Border District Government, and as the county magistrate who leads all this, the Border District Government directly gives him the right to make decisions on an ad hoc basis.
Compared with the biting cold wind outside, the greenhouse where the laboratory is located is very warm, with a warm spring-like feeling.
There were a total of five agricultural experts, plus one Wang Ping, and the six of them were discussing something around a table, which was very lively.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhou, and other experts, our laboratory only studies one thing for the time being, and that is seeds!"
"The seeds that ordinary people sow every year are self-produced seeds at home, and the yield is very low. Our idea is to set up this laboratory to specialize in researching seeds with better yields, and then produce the seeds and sell them to the ordinary people to improve the border areas.
Even the grain output of the entire China!”
"Think about it, everyone, once this research is successful, we will be heroes of the people and the country, and it will be possible to leave a name in the past and present!"
Wang Ping first drew a big pie for everyone, and when everyone couldn't help but their eyes lit up, he continued.
"However, it is very difficult for us to develop qualified seeds because we have no experience or even ideas!"
"Not bad!" Mr. Zhang, who was still rational, interrupted directly.
"Without ideas, experience, or even reference, it is more difficult for us than reaching the sky... Comrade Wang Ping, such research may not produce results in five years, or even ten years!"
A very confident smile appeared on Wang Ping's face, and then he replied: "We already have the fourth research path!"
"After various collections, we found that there have been studies on seeds abroad. One of the research ideas we think has certain feasibility is hybridization."
"By cross-pollinating different varieties of the same crop to create new grains, you might be able to develop grains with better yields!"
"We have a greenhouse where we can continuously cultivate seeds all year round, cross them, and conduct constant experiments. I don't know what the experts think!"
"It's possible in principle, but no one has ever tried it!" Mr. Zhang frowned and thought for five minutes before judging.
"If no one experiments, we will experiment on our own. Even if we increase the yield of seeds by 10%, it will be a success for us!" Wang Ping made a decisive decision!
