Countercurrent 1978 starts with the production team

He would never express his thoughts to Mr. Song Liansheng.

Now he is only working on the three-thirds of an acre of land in Xiaohe Village, and his strength is still too small.

If you had made these remarks to this old man, he would definitely laugh at you for speaking arrogantly.

Science and technology, especially the seed technology known as the "chip" of agriculture, without long-term accumulation and research, trying to catch up with the international giants that have been developing for decades is tantamount to wishful thinking.

However, someone has to do this kind of thing, and if there is an opportunity, he will naturally not hesitate to contribute.

"Speaking of this breed, I didn't expect Liu Laoshi to find a litter of Chenghua pigs, which are great things."

Song Liansheng seemed to suddenly remember something and said to Chu Jianghe, and he was amazed.

"real?!"

Chu Jianghe was overjoyed when he heard the news. He had really understood what the Chenghua Pig was in his previous life.

This is a breed of pig native to Sichuan and Chongqing. When it reaches adulthood, it has thick fat and rich meat. It is an excellent material for making twice-cooked pork.

Unfortunately, there are very few of these pigs in later generations, and it is said that they are already on the verge of extinction.

Just because the growth cycle of this pig is too long, foreign pig breeds can be sold in 5-7 months, but this kind of pig needs to be raised in 10-13 months before being sold.

In fact, domestic domestic pig breeds all have this problem, which is why foreign pig breeds are so popular.

It is also a matter of economic efficiency. Raising a pig for five more months means that the food consumption will double, and the management difficulty will also double.

After all, our lives are not rich yet, and it is all pork. It is good to have meat to eat. If we are picky about anything, we will naturally buy the cheaper ones.

Although this local pig breed has better meat quality and more delicious taste, the cost is too high.

In this way, the native pig breeds gradually came to an end. Several native pig breeds have become extinct in later generations, which is a pity.

Chu Jianghe didn't stay long and hurriedly went to find his father-in-law, Liu Laoshi.

After seeing the litter of Chenghua pigs, I was a little overjoyed.

I saw that the Chenghua pig had black hair all over, short limbs, and a fat body. It looked exactly like the one in the propaganda poster of the fat pig in the village with two people riding on it.

"Uncle." Seeing his uncle coming, Liu Laoshi, who was originally taking care of these Chenghua pigs, hurriedly greeted him.

"Dad, where did you get these pigs?"

Chu Jianghe was not prepared at all for this surprise.

Liu Laoshi smiled honestly and said, "Haha, wasn't that the last time I went to the Yuejin Piglet Factory with you? I saw there was a litter of these things. They thought they ate too much and grew slowly, so I brought them back."

"Uncle, this is a good thing. Before liberation, all the high officials in the city liked to eat it. The meat is very fragrant."

"Yeah, dad, you did a good job, a very good job." Chu Jianghe looked at these Chenghua pigs and kept nodding and praising Liu Laoshi.

Liu Laoshi was still thinking that his uncle would like this thing, but when he heard him say this, he felt relieved.

Chu Jianghe was grateful to him before it was too late, so how could he blame him.

He couldn't wait to taste the Chenghua pig, especially the twice-cooked pork made from the Chenghua pig's pork. Just thinking about it made him move his index finger. He had never had the chance to eat this thing before.

Originally, the Yuejin Piglet Factory shipped these Chenghua pigs for breeding purposes, but in the end, Xiaohe Village was given an advantage.

Immediately, I told my father-in-law to take good care of these Chenghua pigs and strive to develop a group. In the future, this breed will also become the flagship product of Xiaohe Village.

Liu Laoshi naturally agreed repeatedly, but his hesitant expression at the end made Chu Jianghe feel funny.

"Dad, if you have anything to say, just say it. We are all a family. There is nothing we can't say."

"Jiang He, I...I don't have any other requests. You see that Xiaofei is not good at studying, so I just want to call him to the pig farm to help. What do you think? I can't throw away my skills, right?" ?”

Liu Laoshi knew in his heart that those people who surrounded him every day were thinking about nothing more than their skills.

Liu Laoshi still has the thinking of the older generation: art should not be passed on lightly!

I just want to pass on my craftsmanship to my son, which even my own daughter cannot pass on.

However, if his son-in-law wanted to learn, he would consider it, but obviously Chu Jianghe had no such intention.

Chu Jianghe also understands his father-in-law's thoughts.

Since ancient times, craftsmen have regarded their craftsmanship as the foundation of their career. They have hidden it deeply and will not spread it easily. There is also the idea that it is passed down to men but not to women.

The inheritance of ancient craftsmen is, firstly, from father to son, and secondly, from master to apprentice.

It's okay to say that the inheritance from father to son is the inheritance from master to apprentice. It doesn't mean that you take the apprenticeship ceremony, kowtow to the master a few times, and then happily complete the ceremony, and the master is willing to pass on all his skills to the master. is you.

First of all, the first thing is to sign a life and death certificate. If you die, become disabled, or become disabled in the meantime, it has nothing to do with the master and he will not be responsible.

At this time, your status is just an apprentice, not a formal disciple yet.

Apprenticeship means learning half the craft and half the rules.

In the first three years, you are taught nothing at all.

First, I will set rules for you and polish your temperament. One meal every three days will not allow you to eat enough. If you are kind, you will eat two meals a day. If you can eat one full meal a day, then you have to burn high incense.

It was normal to be beaten and scolded at every turn, and the whole family had to be humble and take care of the master. It was simply an inhuman life.

There is this passage in Mr. Lao She's "My Life": If you can survive these three years, the most stubborn people will have to soften, and the most soft-hearted people will have to harden; I can simply say that, as an apprentice, Temperament is not something you are born with, but is struck with a wooden board; just like forging iron, whatever you want to strike becomes what you want.

This is only the first step. Only after passing this first step can you enter the second step.

The second step is three years of study and two years of service.

After three years of apprenticeship, the master begins to teach you. He teaches you for three years and works for the remaining two years. The fruits of these two years of work belong to the master, and you cannot get a cent.

After waiting for these five years, I can get half of it.

Some masters will not let you become a master, so you have to continue to be a slave to the master.

In this way, the master has to keep a secret and cannot teach you everything. Isn't there an old saying, teach the apprentice and starve the master.

For various reasons, many excellent skills have been buried underground forever as the older generations have passed away, and have been lost to inheritance.

Nowadays, many unearthed cultural relics amaze us. Many techniques are laborious and laborious even with the help of modern tools.

I really don’t know how people in ancient times were able to do it with their own ingenuity under such conditions. The lack of inheritance of this skill can’t help but sigh.

The reason why Chu Jianghe is connected will naturally not force his father-in-law.

However, I have to find an opportunity to persuade him in the future. It is not a good habit to cherish one's broomstick.

He would not refuse his brother-in-law to come to work on the pig farm.

Chu Jianghe agreed wholeheartedly: "Of course I welcome Xiaofei to come to the pig farm, but he can only go to school for a few years. We can't let Xiaofei drop out of school and come back."

"Eh, eh."

Liu Laoshi got his uncle's promise and was all smiles.

He is still strong now and is not so anxious about the inheritance, and he is not in a hurry to let his son come. Now that my uncle has spoken, then the matter is settled.

After sending his uncle away, Liu Laoshi started to work again.

Chu Jianghe wanted to go home directly, but when he reached the gate, he was stopped by Song Lian again.
