Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 453 Educational Issues in Agricultural College
The construction of Dingxiang City has entered the middle stage, and various industries are constantly being completed. Many merchants on the Shanyang side have begun to rush to open shops there, and the three cities of Tai'an, Shangqi, and Ulan are It is still in the stage of infrastructure construction. By the end of the year, it will be good to get the city wall and the infrastructure in the city up.

With the experience of building Shanyang and Dingxiang, many detours will be avoided in the construction of the rest of the city. In terms of planning, forests, rivers, roads, etc., there will be many ideas. After completion, the convenience and beauty In terms of quality, they will not lose to Shanyang. Of course, there are some projects that are difficult to surpass, because Shanyang is a flower city. There is no secret recipe for making perfume, and no one dares to plant flowers on such a large scale.

After Sun Deshou arrived, the topic of the conference hall turned to farming. The first-class land auctioned and developed three years ago has been fully developed this spring, and the development of the second-class land has reached nearly 500%. The Qi family moved out and temporarily opened up some fields. The number of acres that will be taxed in Beidi this year will be as high as [-] million acres.

Moreover, more than half of the 500 million mu of land are planted with cash crops, and the income tax will be higher than the agricultural tax in Guanzhong. It is not impossible for the total value to exceed 200 million.

Well, let’s do some calculations. In the north alone, Zhenguan is expected to generate more than 500 million yuan in taxes for the country in four years. Adding Guanzhong and other parts of the country, the tax revenue of Datang this year will exceed 200 million yuan. On the basis of last year Doubling it is inevitable.

Only with a good economic foundation can we do things well, or in other words, can we fight well.Don't look at Shanyang's income is a lot, the expenses are actually bigger.

Not to mention the investment and construction of the four county-level cities and many county towns, the number of people who need to be supported by the four coalition forces alone has exceeded 5. In addition to the supply of expensive equipment, the monthly expenditure on food and grass and military pay is 20 yuan. Wanguan started. After all, four departments have produced people, and you can't ask them to pay for the rest of the expenses. They don't have such financial strength themselves.In addition, letting them develop the habit of living on the imperial court's food and military pay will help the imperial court to control them in the future.

Therefore, from the outbreak of the war in September last year to June this year, Sunshine's expenditures in this area reached nearly 200 million yuan. There is not much money left in the treasury of the yamen of the Governor's Mansion, and there are many large expenditures , are all loans to go.

If it is the same as in history, it is obvious that Goguryeo cannot be won in this battle, because the finances do not allow it and cannot afford it.Even if it was opened to Goguryeo after more than ten years of accumulation in history, the finances still did not allow it. Therefore, it was delayed until Gaozong's period, and the Tang Dynasty finally won Goguryeo.

After understanding all aspects of the situation, Sun Xiangfu can make specific deployments. This year, the grain from Jiangnan was directly transported to Laizhou by sea. The grain supplies for the main force are mainly from Laizhou. Sun Xiangfu is mainly responsible for supply and consumption. The relatively large fodder, as well as the supply of weapons and equipment, are mainly from the Anbei Army itself and the four coalition forces.

This front line is fighting from the northeast to the bottom. It is nearly a thousand miles away from Hebei Road and Laizhou Sea Road. In terms of transportation, the defense line built by Yuan Gai Suwen on the front line of Liaodong requires a detour room Before Yuangai Suwen's Liaodong defense line was completely defeated, Weibu's old land was basically an independent front line.

Du Ruhui will arrange the supply of equipment for the main army of the Sixteenth Guards. From Weinan to Laizhou by water and canal, the army on the middle road and the army on the sea road will all face Goguryeo's war fortresses. There will be more heavy equipment, and the consumption of stone bullets, bows and arrows will be greater.

The reason why Li Shimin went to Shanyang first, and then went north, was because he and Li Jing agreed after analysis that only by walking on the road, avoiding the strongest defense line of Goguryeo, and defeating its rear, can we win this battle with relatively small losses. The victory of the war, therefore, the 3 troops led by Li Shimin will join the 5 Anbei Army led by Su Dingfang, and more than [-] four coalition forces. The logistical supplies of Goguryeo's strongest defensive war fortress allowed the Tang army's middle and lower troops to suffer less losses in the battle.

Sun Xiangfu had to prepare the food and grass for the [-]-strong army in advance. Li Shimin would set off immediately when he was resting in Shanyang. Therefore, Sun Xiangfu didn’t discuss much with Sun Deshou after he finished reporting the agricultural data. In the specific work of collecting supplies, before dark, Cheng Chumo's grain escort army was sent to stand in front of the army before returning to the mansion to rest.

"Brother, do you want bread? Brushed with blueberry jam."

The busier it was, the less appetite Sun Xiangfu would have. Seeing that Sun Xiangfu didn't touch the food on the table, Sun Xiaomei suggested.

"The amount of blueberry fruit in the first year is not much, but you can know how many blueberry plants have been successfully planted through the fruit yield rate. From the looks of you, it seems that you are no stranger to blueberry jam. The fruit yield rate must not be low! "

Sun Xiaomei nodded with a smile and replied, "Well, it's almost [-]% of the fruit. However, there are not many fruits on one plant, so it's troublesome to pick."

"Seventy percent, that's quite a lot. Just clean up those blueberry things that don't bear fruit! The chances of fruiting later are not high."

As Sun Xiangfu said, Sun Xiaomei had already handed over two slices of bread with a layer of blueberry jam sandwiched between them like a treasure.

The bread was made by the cooks of the Sun Mansion. Ever since the chefs of the Wangjiang Tower made fluffy and delicious bread according to the research direction designated by Sun Xiangfu, it has been one of the staple foods for breakfast in the Sun Mansion.

Sun Xiaomei, who is always hungry faster, likes to eat it as a snack. Ever since the blueberry fruit ripened, Sun Xiaomei couldn't wait to make this slightly sour fruit into jam, and thought of brushing it on bread to eat It tastes good and is very appetizing, and it has become the staple food of her three meals a day.

Sun Xiangfu ate three slices of bread in a row, and he was a little bit full, so he stopped, but found that Sun Deshou, who was sitting opposite him eating, didn't seem to have much appetite, and a pair of chopsticks was absent-mindedly pawing in the bowl, but he basically didn't send it to his mouth.

"Deshou, what are you thinking! Don't you want to eat well?"

Sun Deshou came back to his senses and replied, "Brother, I was thinking about the education of our farm. This time you brought more than 50 children from the village to let us teach. I am afraid that the agricultural college that will be built later will require us to teach." Come and teach! However, we haven’t even thoroughly studied the three-year three-field system, which has resulted in some defects in the seeds in Guanzhong this year. How can we be qualified to teach everyone how to farm! Isn’t this misleading the children?”

In fact, Sun Deshou fell into the inertial thinking that communication and education should be to teach the truth in the world. This is also a manifestation of his lack of confidence in the teaching of agriculture. On this road, the more people know, the more they feel ignorant, because the more they know, the more they know what they don't understand.

"Have you forgotten one of the inheritance principles of our farm? Future generations must find a way to overthrow and surpass the predecessors. Not all academics and technologies have a truth or limit, and we are not trying to achieve it. It is best to let future generations follow our achievements, but do our best to pass on some technologies we have mastered to them, and let them invent and create better technologies on the basis of these technologies , Only by constantly doing better can we human beings continue to progress.”

Even after thousands of years, the research on various seeds and agricultural technology has never stopped. No living agricultural scientist dares to say that his research results are the ultimate results. normal.

From the very beginning, Sun Xiangfu gave himself an accurate position for the children of the peasant family. He didn't want to build a house for future generations to live in, but he wanted to turn his knowledge into the foundation for building this house. , Let countless descendants come to build this house that can never be finished.

Of course, from another perspective, Sun Deshou has already begun to think about the issue of rural education from a higher perspective, which shows that he has become more mature. Thinking that when he was twelve or thirteen years old, he still loved playing video games for nothing. Life problems are all solved by parents. Sun Xiangfu feels that he has no right to criticize him.

"It was my younger brother who got into a dead end for a while. However, judging from the farming situation this year, it is not that simple to push away the teaching and farming techniques of the farm. There are still many language barriers for these Hu people to communicate with us. , Moreover, to learn our technology, you must have a certain cultural foundation. If you want these people to know Chinese characters, I am afraid..."

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu smiled and said, "You can't use the method I used to train you to train ordinary people. Not everyone is qualified to be a farmer's child and learn the knowledge of a farmer's professor.

It is a good situation to be able to pick one out of a hundred miles, a thousand miles, or even a thousand miles. Most people, in fact, just need to follow the example and contribute their own labor under the leadership of these people who have truly mastered the knowledge. "

No matter how useful agricultural technology is, not everyone can learn it. Once this situation forms, it will be a disaster. It is even more terrible than the Song and Ming Dynasties when all scholars read the Four Books and Five Classics. industry people.

And don't expect everyone to be able to learn it well, even Confucianism has not been able to achieve this level, let alone other disciplines, agriculture, in fact, only a small number of talented people are needed to find out the most advanced Technology is good, most ordinary people are only suitable for enjoying the results.

"If that's the case, it's much simpler. By the way, Mrs. Wang plans to build an agricultural college on the same scale as the medical school. The land has already been demolished. In the direction of the east gate, some school buildings will be built for initial use next year. Big brother, yours." Are the textbooks ready?"

Speaking of this, Sun Xiangfu thought of the booklet he gave to Wu Meiniang. After that, he might have to spend more time to complete the compilation of the teaching materials. At least, he had to collect enough materials for the students to study for three years.
