Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 220 How is it possible?
Going?

Jing Guohua came to my house in person, so I have to give him face.

It’s not for Jing Guohua, he is just a representative.

However, I won’t go there immediately, but will wait until I finish the work at the reservoir.

That matter is not that urgent.

"The Academy of Agricultural Sciences is asking you for help?" Zhang Ruoxi said with a smile, "Do you feel proud?"

"I'm not proud, but I am a little worried." Xu Yue said, "We are not the same kind of people as those scientists. However, we have to admit that many of them are worthy of respect."

"What are you worried about?" Zhang Ruoxi asked, "Are you worried that they will use the greater good to pressure you?"

"The scientific research technology won't be made public yet, let alone the secret inheritance method," Xu Yue said. "Besides, I mentioned it to Jing Guohua in advance, so he will definitely give us advance notice. I'm worried that our visit will shatter the scientists' worldview."

Zhang Ruoxi rolled her eyes, obviously not believing what Xu Yue said.

Real scientists have no scientific outlook.

There are more than just one or two great scientists who study theology.

However, Xu Yue said that he was not worried that the other party would use justice to pressure others, and she did not doubt it.

If I really had to force it, I would have done it long ago.

"You can actually become the modern Shennong." Zhang Ruoxi suddenly said, "You can also make agriculture a prominent discipline in this era!"

"There's only one modern Shennong," Xu Yue said, shaking his head. "I'm not as great as him. As for making agriculture a prominent discipline, that's not easy. At least, I'm not qualified yet!"

Zhang Ruoxi looked at Xu Yue and said nothing more.

Why am I not eligible now?
Taoyuan Farm had just left the village when it was targeted by countless forces at home and abroad.

If Xu Yue wanted to become the contemporary Shennong and wanted agriculture to become a prominent discipline, what would he face?
Can be imagined.

If Xu Yue had not prepared for the future, cooperated with special state departments, and even recruited troops to the village, Taoyuan Village would probably no longer be as peaceful as it is now, but would be in turmoil.

Xu Yue's ability to cooperate with special departments was largely due to luck.

If Jing Guohua had not been injured and needed a Chinese medicine acupuncturist who could develop internal energy, why would he have come to Xu Chengyang?

If Li Liang was not Xu Yue’s classmate, he would not have brought his leader to find Xu Chengyang.

But who can guarantee that they will always have such good luck?

Any tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!

Xu Yue was about to become the contemporary Shennong and make agriculture a prominent discipline, and the challenges he faced were absolutely unimaginable.

What's more, this is the age of technology.

Such is the general environment.

It's like if someone invented an energy source other than oil, they would probably not get rich, but would be left without a burial place.

Xu Yue and Zhang Ruoxi did not go directly to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, but went to meet Jing Guohua first.

Go directly to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences?

He probably couldn't even get through the door.

What does the Academy of Agricultural Sciences look like?

Xu Yue didn't know.

This time I didn’t go for a visit, but went directly to the experimental field.

Xu Yue provided Jing Guohua with hundreds of kilograms of grain seeds, enough to plant dozens of acres.

However, the seedlings in the experimental fields were planted in some denser and some sparser areas.

“What a strong smell of pesticides!”

Xu Yue passed by a paddy field and couldn't help frowning.

"There's nothing we can do about it," Jing Guohua said. "There are too many insects. But those patches over there aren't any pesticides."

Xu Yue looked over.

There were many frogs raised in a paddy field.

This is using frogs to kill insects!

In addition, the paddy fields are directly covered with dense nets to keep the insects out.

There are quite a few on the Internet.

This really is trying every possible method!

However, he is more optimistic about the frog extermination method.

Huh?
How about raising frogs?

Xu Yue also saw a piece that had nothing done to it.

The seedlings were almost eaten by insects.

It's probably been abandoned.

"Director Jing!"

When an old man saw Xu Yue and his group, he hurried over with a group of people.

"This is Mr. Xu Yue, right?"

The man greeted Jing Guohua and then looked at Xu Yue.

"This is Academician Meng!"

Jing Guohua began to introduce Xu Yue.

"Hello, Academician Meng, I'm Xu Yue. You can just call me Xu Yue."

Xu Yue greeted him quickly.

Academicians were not as shameless as today's "experts".

Without ability and contribution, you would not have this title.

Such people are undoubtedly worthy of respect.

"Hello!" Academician Meng said, "I've taken people to Taoyuan Village more than once. Although I didn't fully understand it, I was deeply shocked."

"You planted them with virtually no fertilizer, yet they grew amazingly well," Academician Meng continued. "I've tested the soil, and it's incredibly fertile, even containing some unidentified substances."

"Besides, how can we grow out-of-season vegetables in Taoyuan Village's climate?"

"The things you grow and cultivate not only taste amazing, but also contain countless substances that are beneficial to the body. It's incredible."

"And the cycles of various vegetables seem to be shorter than usual."

Academician Meng spoke incessantly, seemingly filled with shock and confusion.

Xu Yue was a little amused and helpless.

"Academician Meng, let's deal with the pest first," Xu Yue said. "I still have to catch a plane to Beijing."

"Oh, okay!" Academician Meng also came to his senses and said quickly, "Let's take a look around first."

Xu Yue nodded and walked around the experimental field.

"What does Mr. Xu need?"

Academician Meng saw that Xu Yue no longer looked away and immediately asked.

"Fruit trees, or any other trees will do." Xu Yue said, "If you don't have those, rocks will do too?"

"Fruit trees? Yes!" Academician Meng asked. "How many do you need? Are there any requirements for variety or size?"

"As long as they can be planted on the edge of the field, it's fine." Xu Yue said, "As for the variety, it doesn't matter. Give me another hoe and I'll mark the planting area."

Although Academician Meng was puzzled, he did not ask, but instead arranged for others to get hoes and fruit trees.

There is naturally no shortage of fruit trees in the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

“Can fruit trees repel insects?”

Someone asked his doubts.

He had been to Taoyuan Village and knew that fruit trees were planted along the edges of the fields in Taoyuan Village.

But he couldn't understand how fruit trees could repel insects?
Some trees can repel mosquitoes, but their effectiveness is limited.

Can it repel insects?
Unheard of!
What's more, there are many varieties of fruit trees planted in the fields of Taoyuan Village.

Can they all repel insects?

"Of course, a simple fruit tree can't do that," Xu Yue said, "but we can use the energy of the earth's veins. The earth nourishes all things, and the earth chooses all things!"

Different radicals naturally lead to different meanings.

The earth nourishes all things, but it can also choose all things.

The art of repelling insects embodies the principle that the earth selects all things.

The simplest example is the regionality of animals and plants.

This is what is meant by “the earth chooses all things.”

"Borrowing the energy from the earth's veins?" Academician Meng frowned and said, "Feng Shui formation?"

"That's it."

Xu Yue did not explain much, but some people were unwilling to accept it.

"What do you mean by 'consider it'? Mr. Xu himself isn't sure either."

"Maybe there are some similarities!" Xu Yue said, "I'm not a Feng Shui master, and I don't understand Feng Shui formations."

"Then this is"

If it's not a Feng Shui array, then what is it? People from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences have actually tried using Feng Shui arrays for planting.

You know what, it really works.

It’s just that the conditions are too harsh and the cost is too high, so it’s not popular at all.

People who do scientific research are obviously more serious.

"The earth nourishes all things, and Shennong is immortal!" Xu Yue said, "I am a descendant of the Nong family, so naturally I will use the Nong family's formation."

"Nongjia?" Academician Meng asked, "Is this the Nongjia mentioned in Mencius?"

The agriculturalists revere the ancient Shennong, who was well versed in the art of cultivating the five grains. Their disciples often live in seclusion in the fields and marketplaces, not seeking fame and fortune among the feudal lords.

However, many of the Nong family's works have been lost.

They are from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, so they naturally know something.

"Ok!"

Xu Yue nodded and glanced at Jing Guohua.

He didn't even mention it to Academician Meng.

But the people above should know about it.

"Xu Xing?" Academician Meng looked at Xu Yue and said, "Could Xu Xing, the representative of the farming family, be your ancestor?"

"I don't know about that. My family doesn't have a family tree."

Xu Yue shook his head, but he did not deny it.

He actually had this guess too.

Otherwise, his blood dripping on the bronze order might not be useful.

If everyone's blood was useful, I wouldn't have gotten away with it.

Everything is entangled in cause and effect.

He had doubts, but was not sure.

"The soil in Taoyuan Village must have been improved by you using the formation and the energy of the earth veins, right?" Academician Meng said, "And the water you use to irrigate the vegetables."

"Correct!"

Xu Yue admitted it directly.

There is no need to deny it.

No one is stupid.

Not to mention that Academician Meng saw it, how could Jing Guohua and the others not see it?

"Is it universally applicable?" Academician Meng asked. "Even if we can transform those barren lands in the country into fertile land, it will benefit both the present and future generations."

"Cough cough!"

Jing Guohua couldn't help coughing.

Academician Meng's old illness has recurred.

This is also a common "problem" among their generation.

Worry about the country and the people.

Times have changed and people's ideas have changed.

How could young people today possibly think the same way as they did?

If he continued, Xu Yue would probably feel that Academician Meng was using justice to pressure him.

"Difficult!" Xu Yue glanced at Jing Guohua and said, "To set up a formation, ordinary people can't do it. At least you have to cultivate true qi. A large formation requires true qi as a guide to connect with the earth's veins."

Academician Meng nodded, but couldn't help but sigh.

He also knows something about those who practice cultivation.

Jing Guohua is a person who practices cultivation, and he is also a person who practices qi.

But there are very few such people in the country.

How can this be popularized?

"The formation can repel insects, so it should also be able to attract insects, right?"

Jing Guohua suddenly asked, seemingly casually.

Xu Yue glanced at him and just smiled.

Are you suspecting that the incident at the Chuanlai Hotel was done by you?
He had never doubted it before.

I must have suspected it, but why didn’t you mention it?

Why mention it now?
He was going to use that to talk about something.

"I heard you built a laboratory in the village?" Academician Meng asked. "Are you hiring?"

Xu Yue was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jing Guohua next to him.

Aren't these two playing a double act?

"The lab only contains some formations," Xu Yue said. "Leaders should know if these can be replicated scientifically."

Jing Guohua shook his head, naturally understanding what was needed.

That formation, let alone replicating it scientifically, even explaining it scientifically is a problem.

"This"

Academician Meng hesitated to speak.

Xu Yue took a look and then sighed.

"Academician Meng, do you really want to study my stuff?" Xu Yue looked over and said, "Actually, I also really hope that your research will make a breakthrough. However, you won't be able to understand my lab even if you go there. It won't be of any help to your research."

They didn't actually want to study it, but they had been studying it for a long time, but there had been no progress.

Naturally, I wanted to visit Xu Yue's laboratory.

Maybe there will be some gains, even if it’s just some inspiration, that’s not certain.

"Of course, if you want to visit my laboratory, I welcome you anytime." Xu Yue continued, "Even if you want to build a laboratory in Taoyuan Village, I have no objection."

Academician Meng's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he looked at Jing Guohua.

Jing Guohua was moved and couldn't help but look at Xu Yue.

Taoyuan Village built a laboratory?

Not necessarily impossible.

Due to the limitation of cultivation level, it is difficult to popularize.

But if there is any breakthrough, it will definitely be a shocking achievement.

Even if there is some inspiration, that is good.

Why did the Academy of Agricultural Sciences try so hard to get a batch of seeds back?
When there was a problem with the seedlings, why did they have the nerve to ask Xu Yue to solve it?

And it's through special departments.

Not just to study these things, but also to do some other research.

For example, taking rice and hybridizing it with other rice.

Don’t forget how today’s hybrid rice came about.

Xu Yue didn't care about their thoughts.

He then began to plant fruit trees with the scientists from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and after the trees were planted, he set up the formation.

"Buzz."

As soon as the formation was completed, the insects in the field seemed to be frightened. Those that could fly flew away impatiently, and those that could not fly ran around in panic, trying to escape.

"How can this be!"

Academician Meng and others were somewhat shocked.

Although I was mentally prepared, the feeling was completely different when I saw it with my own eyes.

This unscientific!

Well, they are people who do scientific research and have seen too many unscientific things.

But when those unscientific things become scientific, that is a major scientific breakthrough.

"How did you do it?"

Academician Meng couldn't help but ask.

He didn't expect Xu Yue to explain, or even if he did, they might not understand.

He asked this simply to express his inner shock.

The pests fled out of the formation area in a panic, but the frogs stayed quietly in the fields.

Can the formation be used to separate beneficial insects from harmful insects?
"Once the formation is complete, the aura within it makes them feel fearful and uncomfortable," Xu Yue said. "Just like bats prefer darkness and bees prefer flowers. This is based on their habits. Nature is all about mutual growth and mutual restraint. Whether it's animals or plants, they all have their own favorite environments and auras they fear."

"there?"

Academician Meng pointed to the frogs in the field not far away and asked.

"Frogs are not pests!" Xu Yue said, "But I suggest you put them somewhere else, otherwise they might starve to death."

"The formation can also distinguish between beneficial insects and pests?" Academician Meng said, "This is incredible."

"It's not the formation that can distinguish between pests and beneficial insects, but the people who practice it." Xu Yue said, "This formation records most pests, but not beneficial insects like frogs."
