Group Chat: If You Want To Be Rich, Plant Trees First

In more than two months, Xiao Yichen's experimental field has produced results.

Normal corn takes about three months to mature, and late-maturing varieties can take more than four months.

But the maturity period of pasture is basically within two months.

Xiao Yichen can do better here, but it's not necessary.

To sum it up a little bit, it will be fine if there is no delay on either side.

"Director Xiang?"

As soon as the harvest season came here, Xiang Longhuai came over with a large group of people.

Xiao Yichen was not surprised that he would come. After all, even if there was no inspection, a person as big as a corn cob would be there.

Just by looking at it, I can tell that the output is the same.

There were staff here who tipped off the news, so it was strange that Xiang Longhuai, the leader who directly dealt with him, didn't come.

Xiang Longhuai chuckled: "Sorry, I was just promoted to director of the Plantation Management Department.

Xiao Yichen is not surprised.

The other party itself has qualifications, and it has solved the soybean gap.

As a middleman, Xiang Longhuai gained a huge political achievement in vain.

It would be unjustifiable if he didn't get promoted.

Xiao Yichen changed his words to save face: "Director Xiang, who are these?"

Xiang Longhuai began to introduce one by one: "This is Director Zheng Yucheng of the Development Planning Department."

Xiao Yichen stretched out his hand: "Hello!"

Zheng Yucheng immediately reached out and shook his hand: "I have heard of Academician Xiao's reputation a long time ago. He is indeed young and promising!"

Xiao Yichen said: "You are so annoying, your small achievements are not worth mentioning."

Xiang Longhuai pointed to another person: "This is Director Qin Jianrong of the Department of International Cooperation."

Xiao Yichen still shook hands with the other party: "Hello!"

Qin Jianrong said politely: "Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth, and the ancients have never deceived me!"

Xiang Longhuai immediately pointed to the next person: "Director Qi Aidang of the Bureau of Agricultural Reclamation."

Xiao Yichen treats everyone equally: "Hello!"

Qi Aidang has two layers of gray hair, but his eyes are piercing: "It's better to be famous than to meet him! It's really better to be famous than to meet him! I've known for a long time that Academician Xiao is young, but I didn't expect Kang Ran... I really have learned a lot now!"

Xiao Yichen said humbly: "You have given me the award!"

Finally, he pointed to a gentle young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses: "This is Secretary Bai Shuming from the Secretariat."

Xiao Yichen also shook hands with him: "Hello!"

Bai Shuming said hurriedly: "I'm just here to make notes on behalf of the Secretariat. I don't know much about professional matters. Academician Xiao doesn't need to care about me. Just entertain a few leaders."

If the secretary doesn't take care of himself, it's almost meaningless.

Therefore, even if his origins were extraordinary, he did not dare to entrust him with it.

Everyone present has a much higher position than him.

In other words, Xiao Yichen has no real job, but who gives Xiao Yichen the real ability?

Bai Shuming said he didn't understand, which was just a modest comment.

Perhaps he is indeed not as good as those experts in the professional field, but in terms of statistics, he is professional.

Even if you don't look at Xiao Yichen's previous contributions, just by looking at the cornfield in front of you, it is completely indestructible.

Facing such a national treasure-level figure, if he dares to make a big deal here, he will be punished if he turns around.

Xiao Yichen did not want to waste too much time and immediately got to the point: "Preparations for the harvest here have been made. Why don't you all take a look together?"

Xiang Longhuai smiled and said: "Of course it would be best if you can see the results as soon as possible!"

There are quite a few people here this time, but there is no need to introduce the others.

It's not disrespectful.

Mainly because it's not necessary.

At Xiao Yichen's signal, the staff immediately began manual harvesting under the leadership of graduate students.

In fact, harvesting by machine is also possible, but Xiang Longhuai believes that machine operation is difficult to avoid losses, and the final data produced is inaccurate.

Anyway, the experimental field is only a few acres of land, and with more people, it can be done in minutes.

To this end, he specially brought a group of soldiers from the nearby military region.

On the one hand, it helps with harvesting, and on the other hand, it also protects safety.

Although it is not a military product, food is sometimes much more important than many military products.

Especially the food that can fill the gap, if they (cgeh) make it here, other people's financial paths will be cut off.

Destroying someone's financial path is like killing one's parents. There is no guarantee that someone will not jump over the wall in a hurry.

"Field No. 1, the yield per mu is 2,300 kilograms!"

"Field No. 2, the yield per mu is 2,500 kilograms!"

"Field No. 3, the yield per mu is 2,430 kilograms!"

"Field No. 4, the yield per mu is 3,600 kilograms!"

"Field No. 5, the temple produces 4,500 kilograms!"

Field No. 1, Field No. 2, and Field No. 3 all simulate the western environment, corresponding to the three regions of Saibei, Western Regions, and Tubo respectively.

Field No. 4 simulates the water shortage situation in the north, while Field No. 5 corresponds to the south.

Of course, the specific situation is analyzed in detail, and here is only a rough summary.

It will be released for trial planting later, and then adjustments will be made based on actual data.

This is a formal scientific research step.

Xiao Yichen has saved most of the troubles, and many people can solve the remaining problems even without him.

"this...……"

"If I remember correctly, the current world record is more than five thousand kilograms. The previous highest in China seems to be more than three thousand kilograms?"

This kind of record is just accidental data.

Under normal circumstances, the yield of corn per mu is between one thousand catties and two thousand catties.

Xiao Yichen said: "I didn't pay too much attention to the yield. After all, I mainly focused on the forage problem in the western region. So I focused my research on environmental adaptability, as well as the nutritional composition and taste of the straw."

He left a corn stalk and said: "Although it is not as good as sugar cane, the taste is still good. If you don't mind, you can come and try it."

As he spoke, he tore open the outer skin and took a bite himself.

I ate a lot when I was a kid.

Rural families don’t have much money, so it’s common to eat corn stalks as sugar cane.

But that was all in the past, and few people seem to do it now?

Xiang Longhuai and others were not pretentious, and even Bai Shuming took advantage of it.

After Zheng Yucheng tasted it, his eyes couldn't help but light up: "With this level of sweetness, can you squeeze sugar out of it?"

Xiang Longhuai waved to the inspector who had been waiting aside: "Quick, go and check it!"

Straw can indeed be used to feed livestock, but after all, it is too simple and can only be used as a temporary substitute.

It is not easy to use it as a regular staple food for livestock like pasture.

Of course, even if it can really be replaced, it is impossible to really plant this thing in the whole west.

The entire western region is so big, just a small part of it can satisfy the whole country.

Any more can only be exported.

But in the short term, Nogata probably doesn’t want to see related seeds leaking out.

Xiao Yichen said: "It's not impossible to squeeze sugar, but the sugar yield rate may not be ideal. At best, we can only guarantee a small profit.

Zheng Yucheng didn't take it seriously: "It's just recycling waste. As long as you don't lose money, it's a profit!"
