To be honest, his son He Yumo, apart from being not very smart, looks pretty good. It is no exaggeration to say that his appearance is one in a hundred!
If it weren't for the fact that the child was born almost at the same time as He Yuzhu, he would have suspected that his wife was cheating on him!
Otherwise, with the looks of him and his wife, how could they have given birth to such a handsome son?
Although he didn't like them, they were still his, He Daqing's, sons!
If his son really becomes a great hero of the entire China, he will definitely have a great future!
This incredible wealth suddenly fell from the sky, how could he not be tempted!
Therefore, the next day, without telling Widow Bai, he secretly asked someone to issue a letter of introduction. He planned to rush back to the courtyard in Nanluoguxiang as soon as the letter of introduction arrived to verify with his own eyes whether the great hero was his son!
On this side, He Yumo had already settled Lei Dad.
Lei Dad is not someone who can sit idle. He can't stay idle all the time.
When he was at Wu Qianli's house, Lei Gong was never idle. He was either helping Wu Qianli's family fishing or helping them build a house and lay the foundation.
He had nothing to do here now, and knowing that He Yuzhu opened a pub in Qianmen, he asked if he could go there to help out.
Actually, it’s no wonder. Although he has always called him “Dad Lei” before, Dad Lei is actually only 41 years old after the Chinese New Year this year, and it is the time for him to get things done.
So He Yumo didn't refuse. After asking his brother and Xu Huizhen for their opinions, they both agreed!
In fact, since the beginning of this year, He Yumo provided the tavern with new drinks and He Yuzhu with raw materials for making braised dishes, the tavern's business has reached a new level!
There are almost a constant stream of guests every day.
Not only that, the helper we hired before in the tavern has not come since the beginning of this year because of family matters.
So He Yuzhu and the others originally planned to hire another person!
Now that's good, they have Lei Gong to help. He knows everything about them, and he is also very strong and works hard. He is just what they want!
So, the matter is settled.
As for He Yumo, the detailed plan for China's industrial and agricultural development that he had been working on was almost complete.
Moreover, the crop varieties he had previously experimented with in the space had all matured. Just as described on the system panel, these crops had extremely high yields and excellent quality.
For example, this sweet potato not only tastes great, but also has a very low glycemic index and a strong sense of fullness compared to other sweet potato varieties available. This means that this sweet potato is not only resistant to hunger but also very healthy, and it is safe even for diabetics to eat.
After preparing all these, He Yumo planned to go find Mr. Zhao.
Coincidentally, when He Yumo arrived, Mr. Zhao was worrying about the data reported by the Ministry of Agriculture!
Because the data above shows that in 1950, China's average rice yield per mu was only 141 kilograms! Converted to each person, the average per capita yield was 239 kilograms.
But the international food security standard at that time was 400 kilograms!
In other words, China’s per capita food intake last year was nearly twice as low as the internationally recognized food security standard!
One can imagine the extent of food shortage suffered by the Chinese people at that time!
However, at the moment, Zhao had no good solution.
Indeed, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the farmers had been allocated land. The land was theirs and they no longer needed to work for the landlords. As long as something was grown on the land, it was more or less theirs.
Therefore, they are very enthusiastic about planting, getting up early and staying up late, and they wish they could bury their bodies in the soil!
But even so, the food production is still not enough.
Mr. Zhao obviously understood that this was not a problem of the farmers, but was caused by the objective conditions at the time. Among them, the most important problem was the seed problem.
If you want high grain yields, you must choose good seeds. Everyone knows this.
For example, Western countries have regarded breeding as a national strategy since a very early time, and have spent a lot of money and energy on it.
Because of this, they no longer had to worry about food.
Although China had the concept of breeding as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, and every generation of Chinese people has indeed been doing this, unfortunately, due to various reasons, there has been no major progress in breeding.
Cultivating high-yield, high-quality seeds is not something that can be accomplished overnight. Just like Yuan Shikai, who dedicated decades of effort, practically his entire life, to seed breeding before finally achieving hybrid rice, breeding is undoubtedly not an easy task.
When Mr. Zhao saw He Yumo coming, the worry on his face eased a little.
He liked the young man He Yumo very much. He was not only capable and talented, but also full of energy. Chatting with He Yumo always made him forget the worries in his mind temporarily.
He Yumo also respects Mr. Zhao very much. To him, Mr. Zhao's vision and mind are incomparable to ordinary people!
At this moment, the guard brought up the food.
"Leader, it's time to eat!"
He Yumo glanced at the wall clock. It was already past 2 o'clock in the afternoon. She didn't expect that Mr. Zhao hadn't eaten yet.
Taking another look at the food brought by the guard, I saw a bowl of white radish in water sprinkled with chopped green onions on the table, then a bowl of vegetable soup, and the staple food was two steamed buns.
He Yumo was really surprised to see such a light diet.
Although he always knew that Mr. Zhao never cared about food and clothing, especially in diet, and always ate very simply, he never expected it to be so simple!
Especially this steamed corn bread, He Yumo knew about it. Although he had never eaten it after traveling through time, the original owner's memory told him that the steamed corn bread was extremely unpalatable. It was not like the steamed corn bread in later generations, which was made of corn flour and other ingredients, and it also had sugar added to it, making it soft and sweet.
This steamed bread is made from crushed corn cobs!
This kind of thing is hard to swallow, not to mention the taste, and it's also extremely difficult to digest! I didn't expect Mr. Zhao to actually eat this!
