I was watching short videos and was seen by ancient people

Chapter 111 Some people seem to be mortals, but they are as good as gods ([-])

[Some people seem to be mortals, but they are as good as gods#hybridrice#Yuan Grandpa]

[When we mention food, the first thing we think of is Grandpa Yuan.

He is the pioneer in the research and development of hybrid rice in my country. He is also the first scientist in the world to successfully utilize the hybrid vigor of rice. He is known as the father of hybrid rice.

He has made outstanding contributions to my country's food security, agricultural science development and world food supply.

In 1964, Grandpa Yuan began to study hybrid rice.

In 1966, Grandpa Yuan published a paper on male sterility in rice, which successfully kicked off the research on hybrid rice in my country.

In 1973, at the Second National Hybrid Rice Scientific Research Collaboration Conference, Grandpa Yuan officially announced the success of the first three lines of hybrid rice. The research on the utilization of rice hybrid advantages achieved a major breakthrough, and the grain yield per acre began to undergo a qualitative leap.

In 1987, Grandpa Yuan won the Science Award from UNESCO.

year 2004.Grandpa Yuan won the World Food Award.

……

On October 2023, 1251.5, after five years of research, 'super rice' once again set a world record, reaching an average yield of [-] kilograms per mu. 】

Qin Dynasty.

Qin Shihuang watched the video on the sky screen and his jaw dropped.

You must know that in Da Qin, although there is rice, it is only one of the five grains.

Not only that, the output is also extremely low.

As for the number of kilograms per mu mentioned on the sky screen, I'm afraid their output from dozens of acres would not be able to reach that much.

Thinking about the past, he was surprised enough to know that there would be a crop in future generations that could feed [-] million people.

After all, in Qin Shihuang's view, new crops must have advantages, and he was behind a lot of promotion.

However, this time he knew that the amount of rice produced was more than 1000 kilograms per acre, which shocked him.

At the same time, he also understood why future generations could feed so many people.

And there are so many people traveling around the country.

If Da Qin had such a high yield per mu and had such machines, I am afraid that the people of Da Qin would be able to travel across the country like later generations.

It's a pity that Da Qin doesn't have such a thing, and the Mohist disciples can't realize that kind of machine.

At this time, he also understood why some people are mortals but are as good as gods.

Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che said on the screen that he drooled.

He felt that if the Han Dynasty had such a figure, not to mention standing shoulder to shoulder with the gods, he would be the Shennong of ancient times.

If there were such figures in the Han Dynasty, they would have enough food to attack the Xiongnu.

And that little Hun is just a clown.

Sui Dynasty.

Yang Guang was shocked when he saw the information on the sky screen.

Ever since he opened the Grand Canal and built Luoyang, the eastern capital, the world's food supply has become somewhat tense.

Although it doesn't seem like a big problem to him, if it can produce more than 1000 kilograms of rice per mu as stated on the sky screen, I'm afraid he can build many more super projects.

Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin looked at the information on the sky screen and thought of the rice yield in the Tang Dynasty. He felt that it was extremely unreal.

You must know that in their Tang Dynasty, one acre of land only produced about 100 kilograms of grain.

Moreover, the grain output of later generations was so high, 10 times that of one acre of land in their Datang Dynasty.

He really wanted to know how future generations would do it?

If the Tang Dynasty had such output, it would be able to weather the disasters safely.

Now when attacking Goguryeo, there is no need to worry about logistics.

Song.

Zhao Zhen looked at the information on the sky screen. He felt that the rice of the Song Dynasty still needed to introduce improved varieties.

Since his father brought Champa rice from Champa, rice production in the Song Dynasty has increased a lot.Even so, it is still very different from that of later generations.

He then thought of the yields of other crops in later generations, and he suddenly understood why later generations were so rich and powerful.

Although the Song Dynasty was richer than all previous dynasties, ordinary people were not able to travel around the world like later generations.

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen was a little envious of the people of later generations. He felt that such a life was the enjoyment of life.

tomorrow.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the message on the sky screen and cried loudly. His parents, brothers and sisters starved to death because of lack of food.

Although it was because of natural disasters and man-made disasters that they didn't have enough to eat.

But compared with the output of Ming Dynasty and later generations, the gap is also very big.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that if his Ming Dynasty had such rice, the people in the world would no longer suffer from hunger.

And in this world, you will have peace for a long time.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang called Prince Zhu Biao again to discuss how to go to sea to find good seeds?

In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, maybe they couldn't cultivate rice seeds like those of later generations, but they could go overseas to look for sweet potatoes, corn and other crops.

Zhu Yuanzhang believed that if the Ming Dynasty had these magical objects, the people of the world would no longer suffer from hunger.

……

When Zheng He saw the message on the sky screen, he was very silent, and the pressure became heavier and heavier.

Since the discovery of the New World, he has been looking for the creatures called sweet potatoes and corn.

I just searched for a long time and couldn't find it.

If it hadn't been clearly stated on the sky screen that these two crops were produced in this New World, I'm afraid he would have given up long ago.

But now that he hasn't found it, he feels unwilling.

After all, in his opinion, if these two crops can be brought back to the Ming Dynasty this time, the people of the Ming Dynasty will be able to have enough to eat.

Finally, he sent out the soldiers he brought again and ordered them to search for the local Tu people again.

If he cannot be found again this time, he will leave some of his soldiers in the new continent, and he will take the other part of his soldiers back to the Ming Dynasty.

Lead more people to search for those two crops in the New World.

A few days later, someone suddenly came with good news.

A soldier discovered corn, which is called a sacred object, in a Tu tribe.

Although the cobs are much smaller than the corn on the sky screen, compared to not having this kind of crop, the choice is a qualitative leap.

A few days later, another group of soldiers delivered the good news that they had found sweet potatoes.

Not only sweet potatoes, but also a crop that requires potatoes. Although its yield is a little lower than that of sweet potatoes, in Zheng He's opinion, it is also a crop with extremely high yields.

And if he brought these three crops back to the Ming Dynasty, the people of his Ming Dynasty would not suffer from hunger like later generations.

……

When Zhu Youjian saw the message on the marquee, he started copying it again.

While he was copying the information on the canopy, he drooled over the rice that would have a yield of more than 1000 kilograms per mu in later generations.

The Ming Dynasty was a period of constant natural disasters. If there were such rice in later generations, I'm afraid the people would not have various uprisings as described in later generations.

After copying, he called Xu Guangqi and asked him to find someone to study how to increase rice production.

People from all dynasties looked at the message on the sky screen, and they were stunned.

You must know that the food they grow is pitifully low compared with later generations, and some of it is even less than zero.

If they had such an output of grain per acre, they would not have to starve to death in a foreign country during the famine years.

At the same time, they were also curious about how rice was grown in later generations.What kind of rice seed is it?That’s why we have such a high output.

When some people saw the old man on the canopy, they even made clay statues, and they knelt down respectfully.

I hope this old man can be like Shen Nong and bless them with a bumper harvest.
