Chapter 346
After returning from a visit to the countryside, the vernal equinox has passed, but the season is mid-spring, but the temperature is still the temperature of early spring.

Old man Qin has been in the county for three or four days. He lives with the two brothers of the Hetian family and veteran farmers from other villages and towns.

In view of the nature of their work, it is not convenient to live in the county government, so Shen specially rented a small courtyard with a single family nearby, and closed the door to allow them to conduct experiments.

They don't need to worry about the things in life. For example, when some old farmers came to the county, they wore thin clothes and their shoes showed their heels. The Song family also provided them with new ones for them to wear.

Even for meals, Mrs. Li will deliver meals every morning, noon and evening.

In the morning, the thick rice porridge is full, and there are several large bowls of side dishes, mainly pickles and pickles. The new dishes have not yet come out at this time, and occasionally they are sold, and they are also very expensive. I really can't afford them.

Fortunately, pickles and pickles are the handicraft of the Song family. The ingredients are simple, but the taste is very good.

Mrs. Li also found some important tasks for herself that could overwhelm the Hu family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. After all, the Hu family came late, and they naturally wouldn't do it before the Song family opened the lo-mei shop.

Noon is a dry meal, not pure fine grains, but it is much better than what they eat at home. For this reason, some people want to leave some rations to dry and take them back to their families.

Regarding this, the Tian family brothers turned a blind eye and closed their eyes. As long as they are physically strong enough to work hard, then they are willing to eat one less bite, and there is no one who cares about it.

Eating is the richest at night, with rice, side dishes, eggs, and some meat every now and then.

In fact, not only Song Yun knows that it is not advisable to eat too much at night, but people who have the concept of health preservation also advocate eating less or even not eating for dinner.

But consider the actual situation. Given that the lighting conditions are not good enough, most people will hurry up to work during the day, and then have a leisurely meal and do some housework at night.

Therefore, since you have hired someone to work, you must make sure that they have enough food at noon and a good meal at night.

Not only that, these people also have the failed products of the dairy products that Song Yun and the others have been working on recently.

It is said to be a failed product, but it is not that it is broken or smelly. The main reason is that the steps were improperly operated. After a while, I tried to improve it but failed, so the finished product is not as good as Song Yun imagined.

Some are not tasty enough, and some are not easy to preserve, because there are often such products, and I can’t eat them at home, so I just give them to the group of people who work hard.

Old man Qin eats half of his lunch and dinner every day, and saves the rest to dry in the sun. Even so, his cheeks are gradually becoming plump under the daily supply of three meals.

When he was at home, as he got old and gradually lost his dominant position in family work, he ate less food spontaneously, and his whole body was weak. This vicious circle made his work even more useless, and old man Qin became more and more miserable. I feel that my life is meaningless.

When he was at home, old man Qin kept saying, "Enough is enough, the time has come, we can't drag the children down." When he came to the county and had a full meal for a few days, he felt that life was pretty good.

It turns out that his teeth can still chew meat and bones. It turns out that it is so comfortable to sleep after eating, and it turns out that he can still earn rations for his family.

"It would be nice if I could eat enough food every day."

One day, old man Qin, whose hands were covered with mud, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"There will be a day, as long as the potatoes can be planted smoothly and collected."

Song Nian walked in wearing casual clothes with his hands behind his back, just in time to hear old man Qin's emotion.

Song Nian has been very busy recently, and finally found time to look at the situation.

After returning from the countryside, he met with local scholars non-stop.

Scholars are different from farmers. After reading more books and gaining more knowledge, they cannot be appeased by giving them a full mouth.

If analyzed according to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, the first-level needs of farmers—that is, physiological needs, food and clothing, have not been fully satisfied. At most, they should pursue a sense of security and social satisfaction. thought about it.

As for scholars, the first few items are basically satisfied, and now they are pursuing knowledge, dignity, ideals, and the realization of personal value.

This is the reason why every official should pay attention to culture and education when he takes office. On the one hand, it is to cope with the performance appraisal, and on the other hand, it is also to appease the scholars who can speak and curse with a pen in hand.

Naturally, Song Nian couldn't neglect this, and received the local scholars cordially and kindly. Among them, there were two factions.

Naturally, Song Nianming treated them equally, and after some examinations and a few words of encouragement, he selected two people as secretarial staff who were exceptionally promoted.

Afterwards, Song Nian went to visit the county school again, and did a lot of appeasing, encouraging, helping and appropriating funds, and finally settled these matters temporarily, and then rushed to pay attention to the suitability of potatoes and the soil of Qinxi County.

Old man Qin had a rare full meal, so why didn't the others do the same.So they all worked hard, for fear of being sorry for the good conditions provided by Song Nian.

Even without the guidance of any scientific theory and without instruments for data analysis, this group of people still figured out the different requirements for planting potatoes in Qinzhou Prefecture and Jinzhou Prefecture through experience and experimentation.

At about the same time, the small official Song Nian had arranged to notify the township leaders to come to the county government for a meeting also came back with people.

This means that Tudou is about to officially appear on the historical stage of Qinxi County, and it will definitely leave a strong mark.

How much is this sum?Many, many years later, at that time, the anecdotes of the royal family of the Wei Dynasty could be turned over and over again for fan creation. Dozens of new varieties of potatoes have been developed, and Qinxi potatoes are still the most recognized existence.

And even the new varieties will be named "Qinxi No. [-]" and "Qinxi No. [-]", as a commemoration of the god-given potatoes that appeared on barren land for a nation that has long struggled with hunger.
