Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2632: Eating corn will prevent you from having a baby?
Four Nine Cities.

A week has passed since the alliance broke the news of food production cuts.

During this week, Yang Xiaotao came to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences every day to inquire about the progress of the matter.

However, bad news came every day and Yang Xiaotao was in no mood to do anything else.

Just as Yang Xiaotao thought, the alliance began to become unreasonable.

First they made a fuss about the poor harvest, then gradually led the conversation to believe that it was a problem of grain seeds, gradually guided public opinion, and then put pressure on people who did not know the truth within the alliance, causing them to take to the streets and causing public outrage.

Under such circumstances, the domestic pressure can be imagined.

The Academy of Agricultural Sciences holds a meeting every day, and the phone calls from above never stop.

Even Yang Xiaotao received many calls from his uncle, Mr. Tao and even Mr. Chen, asking about Yangcun No. 1.

Yang Xiaotao can only guarantee that there is no problem with the seeds, the problem lies with the alliance.

Everyone understood this.

But there is no way.

The other party has the capital to be unreasonable.

They can only reason.

In the office, Yang Xiaotao sat in a chair in a daze, looking for a way out of the impasse.

At the side, Liu Lixue and Lou Xiao'e were working in low voices, for fear of making noise and disturbing Yang Xiaotao's meditation.

Ring ring ring

The phone on the table rang, Yang Xiaotao came back to his senses and picked it up, "Hello, this is Yang Xiaotao."

"Xiao Yang, it's me."

"Chief!"

Hearing that the voice was his uncle's, Yang Xiaotao turned his head to face the window and lowered his voice.

Seeing this, the two looked at each other, picked up the thermos and left the office.

“Xiaoxue, is this incident really that serious?”

Liu Lixue looked around and nodded, "It's serious, very serious."

Lou Xiao'e was shocked. This was the first time she heard this word from someone around her.

"what happened?"

Lou Xiao'e approached, and Liu Lixue saw that there was no one around, so she hugged Lou Xiao'e in her arms and even gave her a pinch.

"I'm going to kill you."

Lou Xiao'e quickly stepped back and ran to the side.

Liu Lixue smiled and moved closer, "Why, you don't want to know?"

Lou Xiao'e snorted coldly, then stepped forward and put her arm around the other person.

Liu Lixue smiled with satisfaction, and then a hint of seriousness appeared on her face.

"This incident, in the final analysis, is the other party's attempt to provoke"

The two were talking in low voices in the corridor, and in the office, Yang Xiaotao was also listening carefully.

"Our comrades have obtained three infected corns through special channels and are sending them to Sijiu City."

"You need to fully cooperate on your part, we don't have much time."

Uncle spoke in a low voice, and Yang Xiaotao felt heavy in his heart when he heard it.

"Uncle, what's going on with the alliance?"

The person on the other end of the phone thought for a moment before speaking, "The other party's agricultural experts have publicly stated that this is a batch of seeds that carry disease. They have also produced a lot of evidence for this, which has caused a stir in the alliance and even in the world. The situation is very unfavorable to us."

Yang Xiaotao did not ask any more questions. The so-called experts were nothing more than mouthpieces for those in need.

He doesn't think the experts in the league have any backbone, otherwise they wouldn't lie with their eyes open.

"I will do my best, don't worry."

Yang Xiaotao gave a guarantee, and his uncle said nothing more, and then the two hung up the phone.

Sitting in the chair and thinking for a while, Yang Xiaotao was thinking about how to break the deadlock.

Xiaowei was swinging her calves on the side, she was ready.

Of course, at this moment, Xiaowei's face showed a rare hint of "anger", but that fierce look looked very cute.

The reason why she was angry was simple. Those seeds were selected by her, so how could they be bad?
Those who say there is something wrong with the seeds are just saying that she is not doing her job well.

This will seriously affect the image in the owner's mind.

Therefore, bad guys must be punished.

"Xiao Wei, let's go."

Yang Xiaotao stood up, straightened his clothes, and then walked out.

When he arrived at Li Hongfeng's office, Yang Xiaotao pushed open the door and walked in, saying that he was going to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

Li Hongfeng also knew about the recent events. Seeing Yang Xiaotao's serious expression, he stepped forward and asked, "Is there still no improvement?"

Yang Xiaotao shook his head. "They got some corn from above. I'll go check it out."

"Then go quickly. Lao Liu and I are here, so don't worry."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and then left the office.

When I went downstairs, I met Lao Hong who had just returned from the logistics department, and the two of us exchanged greetings.

Upon learning of the current situation, Old Hong frowned.

"I don't think the alliance will let this matter go. They will definitely make a fuss out of nothing, and they may even ask for an exorbitant amount of money."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao was no longer in a hurry. He took out a cigarette and lit it for the two of them. He also wanted to hear Lao Hong's analysis.

After all, when it comes to overall strategic analysis, he is considered the most powerful among the nine departments.

"The alliance's light industry has always been a weak spot, and this is related to the goals they set back then."

“It was only later that the previous administration started to develop the corn economy, which strengthened this weakness and enabled agriculture to develop rapidly.”

"It's just that this guy is only into corn economy, and everything else is just a side issue, ignoring the laws of nature."

"Our ancestors knew that the land needed to be fertile and that crops needed to be rotated, but they are counting on chemical fertilizers to solve the problem. Isn't this against the laws of nature?"

“So, the path they took was a little crooked.”

"Now that it has broken out, the effects are definitely more serious than we know."

Lao Hong analyzed calmly that he was also a farmer before joining the revolution. In previous years, he had fed cattle and worked in the fields in the countryside and knew the conditions in the fields.

Yang Xiaotao also understood this. "The alliance suffered a heavy loss, but they will not admit it."

"Yeah, so they want a scapegoat."

"So they came after us, the weakling."

Yang Xiaotao said indignantly, but Lao Hong laughed when he heard it.

"We are a soft persimmon, but they really don't dare to crush us."

"How to say?"

Yang Xiaotao was curious, and Lao Hong said with a smile, "Things are different now. We are soft persimmons, but we also have some ability. They also have to consider the consequences."

"Moreover, their most direct conflict now is food!"

"Without food, it's hard to say whether their domestic food reserves can last until Christmas."

“So, they need food.”

Yang Xiaotao shouted immediately, as if a shackle had been removed from his heart, and his eyes were cold.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao's expression, Lao Hong smiled and shook his head, "What you are thinking of is a method that will hurt both sides in the end. Besides, if we don't sell it, we still have the United States. These guys have been eyeing this piece of fat meat." "Besides, do you think the chief and the others can't think of it?"

"I just haven't thought of a good way to respond to him."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and said, "There is a good way, which is to find out the cause of the disease."

Lao Hong put out his cigarette, and nodded silently when he heard what Yang Xiaotao said, but then shook his head, "Finding out the cause is not the end of the story, it can only be said to solve the current dilemma."

"What I'm worried about is that after this incident, the other party will no longer buy our seed grain."

Yang Xiaotao thought about it for a moment and immediately understood the reason.

A grain variety that has major hidden dangers is definitely not a good grain variety.

It goes without saying how the latter will choose.

"Old Hong, who do you think is the biggest beneficiary of this incident?"

Suddenly, Yang Xiaotao asked.

Because he remembered the detective and suspense novels, movies and TV shows he had watched in his previous life, in which the people always regarded the "beneficiaries" as suspects.

Because everyone knows why there is no gain without pain.

Behind every event, from its occurrence to its outcome, there is always a beneficiary.

And the beneficiaries are often the masterminds of the matter.

"The United States!"

Lao Hong said it without thinking, and Yang Xiaotao nodded in agreement.

"Even if he wasn't the mastermind, this guy must have contributed to this incident."

Yang Xiaotao said angrily, and Lao Hong patted his shoulder, "Don't take it too seriously, at worst you can just stop doing business in the north."

"It's just right that the grain seeds saved can be used to increase the domestic grain supply."

Yang Xiaotao hummed, then crushed out his cigarette butt and said, "I'm going to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences."

"Go."

After saying that, Yang Xiaotao drove away from the Ninth Department.

Lao Hong stood where he was and looked towards the north.

"I hope these guys will use their brains and not let others take advantage of them."

Susco.

Bemet sorted out what had happened recently and then prepared to hand it in.

Just as he was about to go out, he heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a female secretary open the door and let the person outside into the room.

Bemet looked up, stunned.

The man was not tall, short and stocky, with a beer belly. His suit was bulging out like a ball, and his chubby face made his facial features twisted together.

"Hey, dear Bemet, long time no see."

The newcomer greeted warmly when he came in.

"Pavel, you've gained weight again."

Bemet stood up, and even though he hated the fat man in front of him, he had to extend his right hand.

Ever since this guy got his hands on the "space-based weapons" last time, he has been appreciated by his superiors. In addition, he has some luck in the team, so he has always had a successful career and is now a popular figure among his superiors.

"Hey, sitting in the office all day, it's impossible not to gain weight."

Pavel patted his belly and said helplessly, but his face was full of pride.

The last time he brought back space-based weapons, he was criticized by many people, saying that he had made a losing deal.

Especially the person in charge of the nuclear power plant research, he cursed him viciously, saying that he had exchanged gold for a pile of shit, which made him very dissatisfied.

But now, after the United States successfully landed on the moon, those voices have all disappeared.

Instead, there was adulation for his 'foresight'.

There are friends all around me.

"If you have anything to say, tell me now. I still have to deliver a report."

The two men let go of each other's hands, and Bemet spoke immediately.

Pavel didn't care. After all, this was not a good place and he didn't want to come here.

Seeing the other party asking, he stopped being polite and said, "I came here this time to ask you to cooperate and raise the wave higher!"

Bemet frowned when he heard this. "Raise it higher. Isn't it high enough now?"

Public opinion is already overwhelming. If things continue like this, will they necessitate violence?

"Be careful that the waves are too high, or your boat will capsize."

Bemit said this in a cold voice. He was not someone who did not know the importance of the matter.

I also understand what is meant by the above.

They just want to blackmail, divert conflicts and reduce losses.

They may even try to gain some benefits from it in order to suppress the other party.

After all, the other party's development speed in recent years has been somewhat beyond expectations, and this momentum must be suppressed.

But he also knew that the purpose of the above was just to suppress the other party and make their identity clear.

But they will not fall out. After all, they know their own business. If they want to continue planting in the future, they will have to rely on others to provide seeds.

"Don't worry, we have already planned it this time."

Pavel said nonchalantly, "This time we want them to provide the parents of the good breed."

Bemet looked up in surprise and asked with a hint of surprise, "Are you sure they will give it?"

"This is someone else's secret, stop dreaming."

Pavel nodded with a smile, then took a document from the secretary behind him and said, "Take a look. This is the latest research."

When Bemit took it, it turned out to be a report from the medical school.

He glanced at Pavel and saw that he looked calm, so he opened the report and started reading.

After only reading half of it, he couldn't wait to turn to the last page. Looking at the final conclusion on it, there was a hint of disbelief on his solemn face.

It took him a long time to digest the information in the report. He looked up at Pavel, who was standing beside him with a calm yet somewhat aloof look.

"Are the research results above true?"

It’s not that he doubts it, but the information on it is too unbelievable.

It was so bad that even he, who had been accustomed to eating corn for many years, felt unwell.

Seeing the other party's expression, Pavel nodded solemnly, "This research is not only from our experts, but also from the United States, which has given the same results."

Then he walked to a chair and sat down. "To be honest, when I received this report, I was also shocked by the conclusions."

"Who would have thought that the bread made from corn flour that we eat now would have such hidden dangers."

"If we had known this, we should not have introduced corn from other countries, and we would not have needed a corn economy."

Pavel sighed with emotion, but Bemit snorted in his heart, wondering who was the one who followed behind and cheered, blowing the corn up into the sky.

Now, look what happened, he turned around and started to wag his tail and beg for mercy from his new master. He has absolutely no moral integrity.

However, after looking at the report in his hand, Bemet was still a little bit unbelieving.

Will eating this hybrid corn make you unable to have children?

seriously!
