The reason why He Yumo said this was because he had read an article before. It said that in the 1950s and 1960s, the then Minister of Agriculture went to conduct research. As a result, a local leader told him that in order to increase wheat production, the locals would bury some livestock that died of disease and could not be eaten, such as whole pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, etc., directly in the ground. They called it compost.
This operation directly shocked the then Minister of Agriculture!
Animal carcasses can indeed be used as fertilizers, but if they are not composted, they will definitely be harmful to crops and will even rot the roots of wheat, causing large-scale wheat death!
Of course, this is just one point. Unscientific planting methods are also reflected in many other aspects.
"Of course, when we talk about this, we have to mention China's education!"
"Whether it's industry or agriculture, both rely on a large number of talented people. We can be poor in anything, but not in education! Therefore, our country must vigorously promote the development of the education industry!"
As a person who traveled from the future, no one knows the importance of education better than He Yumo!
"I agree with this point! But at the moment, it's still quite difficult."
Mr. Zhao naturally agreed with He Yumo's point of view. In fact, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, they had already started a nationwide literacy campaign.
But at the moment, the effect is not good.
This is no wonder. Years of poverty have caused people to lack awareness of the importance of education, especially in the vast and remote rural areas. People now can't even get enough food to eat. Anyone with some labor, even a child, is helping out at home. For them, education is not only a waste of money, but also a waste of labor.
Unless the country implements free education in all aspects, where not only is it free but there are also subsidies for going to school, then perhaps more people will be willing to send their children to school, but this is not realistic.
Because the country is very poor now, there is no way to do this. Therefore, it is very difficult to vigorously popularize education.
However, if He Yumo's agricultural reforms are successful, the people will not only be able to eat enough, but also have money in their hands, then this situation should be greatly improved.
"Indeed, although it is difficult, for the long-term development of our country, education must keep up!"
"Of course, education is an extremely important matter. After all, it's no exaggeration to say that education is the hope for a country's future. The kind of talents we can cultivate now directly determines the future development direction of our country!"
"Hmm! You're quite right! What are your thoughts on this?"
The old man lit a cigarette and asked.
He Yumo said without hesitation: "I think our country's education should be more practical and innovative!"
"The talents we cultivate should not be the rigid, dogmatic nerds of the past, but should be truly useful to the development of the country..."
The three of them had a very pleasant conversation for the whole afternoon. The old man and Mr. Zhao highly affirmed the ideas proposed by He Yumo, and He Yumo also felt their foresight on some issues.
Although the two of them live in such a backward era, it does not affect their acceptance of new things. He Yumo feels very fortunate about this!
Fortunately, he met the two elders at this moment. Otherwise, if the other party could not accept the advanced ideas brought by He Yumo, then no matter how capable He Yumo was, he would not be able to help China quickly change its current destiny. He might even be treated as a "monster" because he was such an "alien"!
"Comrade He Yumo, we two old men have benefited a lot from talking with you today and gained a lot!" The old man was not stingy with his praise!
Although he is not superstitious, he has to say that He Yumo's appearance here is really a great blessing for China!
"Yeah! I think, how about you become my secretary from now on?"
Mr. Zhao suddenly smiled and said that he really liked this young man! It would be great if He Yumo could be his secretary!
Unexpectedly, before He Yumo could say anything, the old man spoke first. He laughed and said, "Hahaha! I'm afraid that won't work! Comrade He Yumo has a more important mission!"
"Old Zhao, you haven't forgotten, have you? Strictly speaking, Comrade He Yumo's current position is still the head of our country's military weapons research and development experts! He should still be on vacation now, right?"
"Haha, old man, while military matters are certainly important, people's livelihoods are equally important! This is a major issue that affects whether our 400 million people can have enough to eat! And look at the things he just mentioned, which one can be accomplished without his assistance?"
The old man thought about it and realized that what Mr. Zhao said was indeed reasonable. However, no matter how powerful He Yumo was, he was only one person after all, and his energy was really limited.
If he is in charge of command and there are dedicated people to be responsible for implementation, the efficiency of work may be greatly improved.
I think He Yumo should be equipped with a special team. Oh no, maybe not just one team. After all, He Yumo is good at too many areas. A group of people can be assigned to each field, and then these people will be led by He Yumo.
So, the old man said, "Old Zhao! What you said is indeed reasonable, but Comrade He Yumo's burden is indeed very heavy, so regarding his appointment, we still need to think carefully about it!"
"Comrade He Yumo, what do you think?" Mr. Zhao asked.
"Everything will be subject to the organization's arrangements!"
"Okay! Then Mr. Zhao and I will think about this carefully later, including the things you brought today. We will discuss it as soon as possible and strive to come up with a specific plan as soon as possible. When the time comes, we will need you to help us implement it!"
It was already evening when He Yumo came out of the Northwest Sea.
At this time, in the courtyard of Nanluoguxiang, a man had come to He Yumo's home. This man was none other than their father, He Daqing.
When he arrived at the yard, He Yuzhu, Lei Dad and others were still busy in the tavern, and He Yumo was still on his way back, so there was no one at home.
However, the audience in the courtyard had already come online early.
