Yi Zhonghai went to Jinmen Steel Rolling Mill. The courtyard became much more stable without a moral gentleman.
Thanks to the punishment imposed by the street office during this period, the courtyard has become a rare and peaceful courtyard, with fewer dirty things and intrigues.
Liu Haizhong was so tortured by the ideological education that he had no energy to carry out the routine programs in the compound, such as eating, sleeping and beating his children.
However, life was not easy for the two brothers. Liu Haizhong took him with him and helped him clean the toilet in the morning and evening.
Silly Zhu also felt much more at ease, keeping his head down wherever he went. After all, cleaning toilets and burning boilers were not honorable things in his eyes, which made him ashamed to approach Qin Huairu.
Xu Damao was still like that, teasing Silly Zhu from time to time, but Silly Zhu didn't have the energy to fight with Xu Damao.
After a long time, Xu Damao found it boring and stopped visiting the toilet and boiler room of Shazhu's new battle base.
The only thing that hasn't changed in the courtyard is Jia Zhang's bad mouth. I don't know where she got so much energy.
Qin Huairu became her punching bag, and she scolded her harshly. After all, she was my mother. Jia Dongxu couldn't keep her from coming to power, so she could only suffer Qin Huairu.
Zhang Zhifei often hears Jia Zhang's scoldings, which makes Zhang Zhifei very unaccustomed. Before time travel, his daughter-in-law was the eldest child in the family, and after time travel, his mother-in-law was the eldest child. The two situations were completely different, which also made him realize the differences in cultural customs in different eras.
Zhang Zhifei went to the post office almost every day during this period to see if he had any letters. However, the transportation in this era was really backward. In the previous life, express delivery would arrive in three or two days. In this era, more than ten days have passed, and he has not received Mr. Yuan's letter yet. reply.
This also made Zhang Zhifei realize that the country has difficulties in all aspects. Transportation, medical care, housing, food security and other aspects all lag behind developed countries.
I am lucky enough to be born in this era. Not to mention throwing my life and blood, I must go all out for the things within my ability. Even if it is a small contribution, it will not be a waste of time and time.
It was the same day as usual. Zhang Zhifei was riding his cool bicycle on the way to the post office. He just walked to Qianmen Street and met the postman.
"Zhang Zhifei, your letter." He had been running to the post office during this time, and the postman was already very familiar with him.
Zhang Zhifei walked up to the postman with excitement and took his letter. It was Yuan Sheng who sent it from Anjiang Agricultural School.
After thanking the postman, he quickly pedaled his bicycle and drove towards the courtyard. He couldn't wait to receive Yuan Sheng's teachings.
After entering the courtyard, I greeted the third aunt guarding the door, pushed the bicycle into the house and parked it, and couldn't wait to open the envelope.
Mr. Yuan was selfless. He did not ignore Zhang Zhifei or deal with him perfunctorily because he was a stranger. Instead, he answered his questions seriously.
Yuan Sheng was only 28 years old at this time, but his rich agricultural knowledge and flexible thinking were rare in the world.
He answered the questions raised by Zhang Zhifei from many aspects and explained complex genetic and breeding knowledge in easy-to-understand terms.
Yuan Sheng recognized Zhang Zhifei's commitment to agriculture and encouraged him to continue exploring hybrid rice and not to give up because of difficulties.
Comparing Yuan Sheng's letters and combining it with my self-study knowledge in the previous period, many issues suddenly became clear.
He is truly worthy of being a great person who has become a Buddha in thousands of families. He refuses to give in. He brings his answers and prepares for the exam for several months, but he still fails to take the exam temporarily. The difference in strength is not measured in miles.
Yuan Sheng's reply to Zhang Zhifei was filled with more than ten dense pages. It was rich in content and essential knowledge points, and was of great help to Zhang Zhifei.
Zhang Zhifei was indeed fascinated by his way of thinking and methods, and did not interrupt his study until his younger siblings came home from school.
After having a simple meal with his younger siblings, Zhang Zhifei continued to study Teacher Yuan’s letters and answer questions.
"Brother, what are you looking at?" The younger brother thought it was a love letter. When he took it over and looked at it, he found that it was a bunch of professional terms and formulas that he couldn't understand.
Zhang Zhifei replied without raising his head: "The rice bowl of the Chinese people."
"What?" The younger brother and sister were stunned by his answer.
Zhang Zhifei ignored the three of them. He was really stunned by Teacher Yuan's unique thinking.
Even though he had the answer before, he still felt that he couldn't find the direction, but now he felt that it was close at hand, and he felt that he was about to succeed.
In the following period, Zhang Zhifei devoted himself entirely to the study of agriculture, often traveling between Yanjing Agricultural University, the steel rolling mill, and the courtyard house at No. 95 Nanluogu Lane. His knowledge was also improving at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Whenever he had doubts, he took the initiative to consult Wang Yanchang, a professor at Yenching University. He also marked the things that he couldn't explain clearly to him. After summarizing a certain number, he wrote to Yuan Sheng.
During this period, he wrote another letter to Mr. Yuan, again as a student, and told Mr. Yuan about his idea.
He did not believe that Yuan Sheng could sit still. A person who was destined to embark on the path of scientific research would have a deep sense of social responsibility that would unconsciously push him to conduct in-depth research.
Before Yuan Sheng's second letter, the crops in the system space could be harvested, finally solving his urgent need.
The sequelae of the Great Leap Forward have already appeared. Natural disasters coupled with the Great Leap Forward caused food prices to rise in the winter of 1958, and food rations began to fail to be distributed in full.
During this period, Zhang Zhifei used all his spare time to study and followed the crowd at work without making any suggestions. He really didn't have time.
At this time, he will complain about his own system. The friends in the courtyard next door all use one-click sowing, one-click harvesting, and one-click processing. But when he comes here, he has to do everything by himself.
My skills in growing grains are not very high, and I have very little free time. Zhang Zhifei harvested a mere three acres of crops for three weeks. If the farmer's uncle was as efficient as him, he would probably starve to death.
Fortunately, the results were not bad. After three weeks of harvesting, Zhang Zhifei harvested more than 120 kilograms of wheat and produced about 80 kilograms of flour. More than 300 kilograms of rice were harvested and more than 180 kilograms of rice were produced.
In addition, some vegetables, potatoes, etc. were also harvested.
From then on, the four brothers and sisters were no longer afraid of running out of food. Even during the three years of natural disasters, they were able to survive safely. This finally made Zhang Zhifei feel relieved.
After the grain harvest, Zhang Zhifei, who was no longer anxious, focused all his energy on hybrid rice and the study of his younger siblings. He knew very well that in this era, only learning is the best way out, and only hybrid rice can solve the current problem. The problem of not having enough to eat.
Needless to say, the importance of learning. Even after the reform, most of the big bosses and upstarts at the beginning were slowly eliminated, and those who remained were those who loved learning, even though they may not study books. knowledge.
There is no doubt about the importance of hybrid rice. In the last life, some people said that Yuan Sheng and his team could feed more than 1 billion people in the world with their passion. This is not groundless.
I don’t have the thinking, structure, and ability of others. If I continue to research, I can only reach the level of Yuan Sheng’s early three-line hybrid rice. In the future, I can only wait for Yuan Sheng’s personal end.
The most important thing in Yuan Sheng's second letter is not knowledge. It is that he finally gave up his research on sweet potatoes and started studying hybrid rice. It seems that he has found the direction of his future life, earlier than in the previous life. 6 years.
With open-book answers for system rewards, Zhang Zhifei informed Yuan Sheng of some knowledge, and he grasped the core essence. He made rapid progress and perfected his theoretical knowledge very quickly, leaving only the experiments.
With the help of Professor Yuan Sheng and Professor Wang, Zhang Zhifei basically mastered the key points of three-line hybrid rice, but currently there is a lack of experimental data.
However, Yanjing is indeed not a qualified experimental production area. The development of hybrid rice will ultimately depend on the results of Yuan Sheng's experiments in Anjiang.
Zhang Zhifei thought for a while, selected knowledge that was in line with the times, looked like his own research, and that Yuan Sheng was still unsure about, and mailed a third letter to Mr. Yuan for Yuan Sheng's reference.
He believes that so many people will never starve to death in this world.
