After being universally criticized online, he cultivates immortality and farms to lead his motherlan

Chapter 102 The country needed him, and he returned without hesitation.
Professor Jiang is talking to Jian Ning about tomato varieties.

Modern tomato varieties are selected for their firmer shape to facilitate transportation, resulting in a less desirable taste compared to older varieties.

He started by discussing the artificial planting of tomatoes and then moved on to how tomatoes are self-pollinating.

Just then, a group of people walked towards them from not far away.

"Professor Jiang."

Professor Jiang was speaking eloquently and enthusiastically, whereas when he usually talked about these things with his students, they all looked at him with blank expressions.

When he looked at them, the students all lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes, and gave no response whatsoever.

Unlike Jian Ning at this moment, whose eyes were shining as he listened, making him feel extremely accomplished.

At that moment, upon hearing someone call his name, Professor Jiang had to stop explaining and turn around.

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, his eyes suddenly darkened, and his expression turned cold.

"Professor Liu, it's you."

Professor Liu, beaming with joy, said, "I heard that your experimental base has recently suffered severe damage from pests, and the experiment has failed. It's such a pity."

Professor Jiang's expression darkened further.

The two were students of the same master, and Liu Li had always been secretly competing with himself.

I've never won against him in terms of grades and research papers since my student days, and I'm still very competitive about it now.

I heard this year that the people he led developed wheat seeds with stronger lodging resistance, and they won many awards.

Professor Jiang thought that now that the country has better wheat seeds, wheat production can be increased, which is a good thing.

However, there was really no need for the other party to stab themselves in the back.

He kept his hands behind his back and never liked to engage in pointless arguments. He preferred to spend his time on agricultural research.

Seeing him like this, Liu Li gritted his teeth secretly.

After all these years, his good junior brother still has this arrogant attitude.

He laughed and said, "If my junior brother doesn't like me talking like this, then I won't say it. Let me introduce you, junior brother. This is my beloved student. He led the team that developed the superior lodging-resistant wheat variety."

Liu Li glanced at Jian Ning and Jiang You behind Jiang Fuguo a few times.

"Junior brother, you're quite the ladies' man. No wonder your research hasn't made much progress these past few years. Women are too delicate when it comes to agriculture; they're not as good as us men."

Jiang You angrily said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I am just a student of the teacher."

Jiang Fuguo's face was gloomy, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't forget, back then, Senior Sister Pu's achievements far surpassed those of the two of us. If it weren't for that accident, and if Senior Sister Pu were still alive, the progress of corn production in our country would probably not be what it is today. We are all working hard for the development of the country's agriculture. There is no distinction between men and women. What men can do, women can do as well."

Liu Li sneered: "Junior brother, then I look forward to seeing you and your female students achieve something next year. Otherwise, you should retire early and hand over the stage to the younger generation, so as not to submit blank papers year after year and waste the funds allocated by the country."

After Liu Li finished speaking, he glanced at Jiang Fuguo with disdain and said in a lecturing tone, "Junior brother, why are you still wearing this with a hole in your collar? We are national-level leading agricultural researchers, and when we go out, we represent the face of the country. You should pay more attention to your appearance."

After saying that, Liu Li led his group away arrogantly.

Looking at the backs of these people, Jiang You said angrily, "Teacher, look at him, what kind of person is he? He has some research results and he looks down on everyone."

Jiang Fuguo sighed, "We are all working hard for the foundation of the country's agriculture. If he can lead the research, the country will have more confidence in agriculture. No matter what he says, I won't lose a piece of my flesh." He reached out and touched the front of his collar, and sure enough, he felt the hole. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

I often have to go out to do experiments, so I can't bear to wear the nice clothes I bought outside. I only wear them when I'm out and about. I didn't even notice that they had holes after wearing them for a long time.

He said, "Young lady, let Ayou show you around. I'm going to discuss some product recommendations."

Jian Ning nodded and replied, "Okay."

Watching his teacher's awkward departure, Jiang You sighed and said, "That's just how teachers are. They never care about these outward appearances and rarely buy new clothes throughout the year. They've been wearing that black cotton-padded coat for seven or eight years now. Besides household expenses, their salary is used to subsidize the experimental base or to sponsor students from disadvantaged families."

Jian Ning also watched Professor Jiang's departing figure, her eyes filled with sincere admiration.

Jiang You muttered under his breath, "Because he devoted himself to agricultural research, his wife couldn't stand that he was often away from home. She said that marriage was no different from not being married at all. They had a fight two years ago and got divorced. Now my teacher is just a lonely old man."

Jian Ning laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid your teacher will find out if you talk about him behind his back?"

Jiang You spoke with an air of fearlessness, "I'm not afraid of him at all. He's just tight-lipped, but he's exceptionally dedicated to agricultural research. Actually, he's soft-hearted than anyone else."

"Back then, my teacher was studying abroad. Later, when the country needed him, he returned without hesitation."

"The corn and soybean cultivation techniques abroad are very mature, and the yields are high. There is still a lot of room for improvement in this area. In recent years, my teacher has focused his research efforts on this. He always hopes that in his lifetime, he can increase the yields of both crops and solve the food crisis that the country faces due to its reliance on foreign imports."

Jian Ning sincerely admired such a great leader of the nation.

The great famine of those years killed countless people, and the fact that we can now enjoy a life with enough to eat is inseparable from the national "vegetable basket" project and the hard work of countless researchers behind the scenes.

Her grandparents always told her that when she was a child, it was difficult to eat meat; they could only eat meat during the Lunar New Year.

The oil from those dishes cooked with lard is so delicious that not a drop of oil can be wasted; you can even eat them with rice.

After leaving the exhibition, Jian Ning and Xiao Li had dinner together before going home.

As Jian Ning walked into the villa, it was already dark, and the conspicuous system appeared.

[100% success rate in treating Xiao Heqi]

[You have lived up to expectations and successfully resolved the crisis of extinction in the Yichen Sect, thus expanding the sect's network of connections.]

[The rewards of "The Complete Guide to Spiritual Healing," "The Basics of the Inner Canon," and "The Secrets of Meridian Repair and Conditioning" have been distributed.]

Jian Ning could clearly feel three very thick books appearing in her mind.

Cultivating medicine and immortality in the world of cultivation is not a simple matter; it also requires a vast amount of knowledge.

By the time I finish studying these three books, it will be almost Chinese New Year, and the medicinal herb seeds in the ground should have matured.

She was going home to visit her grandmother and develop a miracle cure for her grandmother's illness.

When Jian Ning got home, she played with the cats and dogs for a while, then sat on a futon and prepared to read "The Complete Book of Healing".

The phone on the coffee table rang.

Jian Ning opened the message and saw that it was a WeChat message from Xiao Heqi.

"Is Dr. Jane very free lately?"
