Dean Wang held the final calculation data and burst into tears.

"Dean Wang, are you alright?"

Wan Ping'an was stunned.

Why are you crying?

"I'm fine, I'm just excited."

"According to our calculations, the yield per mu of this land is 1,883 jin."

“We checked it three times. I guarantee on my honor that the error will not exceed ten pounds.”

"These are tears of joy. If this can be promoted on a large scale, it may not completely solve the food problem, but at least people won't starve to death."

Dean Wang wiped away a tear.

"really?"

Old Zhou was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes.

He dedicated his life to China, and one of his greatest wishes was that the people would no longer go hungry.

Golden rice could very well help him realize his wish.

"Old Zhou, I'm willing to risk my life to guarantee it!"

Dean Wang's expression was unusually serious.

"Okay, okay, okay!"

"Xiao Wan, you're amazing!"

As soon as Old Zhou turned around, he grasped Wan Buping's hand, his hands trembling with excitement.

"Xiao Wan, I solemnly request that you perhaps promote the large-scale cultivation of golden rice to solve the food problem for the vast majority of people."

Old Zhou's expression was very serious.

"it is good!"

Wan Ping'an nodded.

They agreed very readily.

Whether before or after his time travel, he was a Chinese.

As a Chinese, he was very willing to make his due contribution so that the people would no longer go hungry, and that his life would not have been in vain.

“Xiao Wan, based on my observation, your six mu of land is actually not suitable for growing rice.”

"The fact that golden rice can grow well shows that it has very low requirements for the environment and is free from any pests and diseases, which means it is resistant to pests and diseases."

Dean Wang truly lives up to his reputation as an expert; he recognized the characteristics of the golden rice at a glance.

It has low environmental requirements, so it is easier to promote.

It allows for faster promotion.

"Dean Wang is right. This kind of golden rice has very low environmental requirements."

"When I was planting rice, there was a period of half a month during which not a single drop of rain fell. The soil lacked moisture, and the surface of the ground cracked, but the rice still survived."

Wan Ping'an nodded.

The golden rice provided by the system has a stronger vitality than weeds.

Cai Quanwu said that he stays in the field every day, and as Wan Ping'an asked, he keeps a record every day and takes out the notebook containing the record.

"Great."

"With such detailed records, we can better grasp the characteristics of golden rice."

Dean Wang was very pleased.

"Comrade Wan Ping'an, on behalf of the people, I thank you!"

"The people will thank you for your contributions, and the government will thank you too!"

Confirm the promotion plan.

Old Zhou looked serious and squeezed Wan Ping'an's hand again.

Han Dahe and Cai Quanwu were both very excited. They were witnesses to the birth of a miracle, something they could brag about for a lifetime.

When you get old.

They can proudly pat their chests and say that they were once Wan Ping'an's followers!

It solved the problem of people going hungry!

"It's getting late, Professor Zhou, Dean Wang, are you both hungry?"

"How about we just have something simple to eat?"

Wan Ping'an made the suggestion.

"Mr. Zhou!"

A nearby security guard gave a reminder.

Old Zhou has too many responsibilities on his shoulders, and he has to be responsible for too many people, so he can't eat whatever he wants.

If something happens to him, it will affect too many people.

"Don't worry!"

"You must trust Xiao Wan!"

Old Zhou smiled and shook his head.

Wan Ping'an asked Han Dahe and Cai Quanwu to prepare food using the local specialties he grew.

of course.

Mr. Zhou's safety personnel supervised the entire process.

"Mr. Zhou, Dean Wang, would you be interested in showing me the other crops I grow?"

Wan Ping'an asked with a smile.

"Of course I'm interested!"

Mr. Zhou nodded.

Wan Ping'an led Old Zhou and the others to a few tomato plants.

"This is the first crop I've ever grown!"

Wan Ping'an pointed at the tomatoes.

After planting one crop of tomatoes, he stopped large-scale cultivation, only growing a small amount to provide fresh food for his family.

He asked Qin Huairu to pick some and give one to each person.

Dean Wang broke it open on the spot and tasted a piece!

Old Zhou can't eat whatever he wants.

"Good, good, good!"

"I've never eaten such delicious tomatoes before, they're absolutely top-notch!"

Dean Wang gave a thumbs up.

Continuing forward, we came to a place where pumpkins were planted. The golden pumpkins looked like golden models.

"This cannot be eaten raw."

"I asked Grandpa Han to steam a few, so we can try them cooked later."

"The taste is just as good as tomatoes!"

"Pumpkin is different from tomatoes. Pumpkin can partially replace staple food, but it is not as important as rice."

Wan Pingan introduced.

For most people, pumpkin is a vegetable, not a staple food. However, pumpkin can indeed be a staple food, just not a mainstream one.

Dean Wang nodded.

He is, of course, the one who knows best.

Next, we visited the watermelon plantation and several other newly planted crops that were not yet ripe, but all of them showed excellent growth.

"Xiao Wan, why don't you come work for our Ministry of Agriculture?"

"If you come, I'm willing to give up my position as dean to you!"

Dean Wang was deeply moved.

In front of Elder Zhou, he extended an invitation to Wan Ping'an.

"Dean Wang, please don't make things difficult for me."

"I just told Old Zhou that if I were to farm, specifically rice, I would be confident that no one could do it better than me."

"But asking me to do theoretical work is asking too much of me."
