Professor Gu's daily life in the countryside after his rebirth

Four years later, Gu Zhan revisited the old place and felt a little dazed. Those days of struggling together seemed to be just yesterday.

He stood up and walked around the laboratory, then said to Xia Yu with a smile, "The conditions are much better now."

"It's indeed much better than it was then. Back then, we had to use a generator to do experiments, and even that generator was modified by you."

Gu Zhan chuckled: "Time flies."

By the way, how is the "Anhe No. 2" scalper doing now?

Speaking of the Anhe No. 2, Xia Yu beamed and said, "You've finally asked me something that makes me happy today. Do you know how superior our Anhe No. 2 beef cattle breed is now? Let me tell you, in terms of growth rate and meat yield, if the Anhe No. 2 is second to none, no one else would dare to claim second place."

"It's the perfect time to promote Anhe No. 2. Are you interested in choosing Shanghe Village?"

"Why? 'Anhe No. 2' is more of a beef cattle breed, not a traditional cattle breed. Doesn't that go against the direction of our cattle farm?"

Xia Yu also wanted to cooperate with Shanghe Village. Firstly, it was convenient, and secondly, almost all the villagers in Shanghe Village were good at breeding, and they were more suitable for raising these cows from the laboratory.

Gu Zhan glanced at Xia Yu, and Xia Yu paused, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Gu Zhan seemed not to notice Xia Yu's reaction and continued, "Who says Shanghe Village has to stick to the same path? Can't it transform and develop?"

This was the first time Xia Yu heard the term "transformation and development". Although he understood the general meaning of it, he was not clear about its specific connotation. What did it have to do with the development of the Shanghe Village cattle farm?

"I... you... what specific path are you taking for transformation and development?"

"Selling beef."

"beef?"

"Yes, selling beef. I anticipated this outcome four years ago, but there's a solution. Since we have so many cows, we'll sell beef. My plan is to set up a beef cutter factory."

Hearing Gu Zhan's words, Xia Yu was stunned. No wonder Gu Zhan suggested four years ago that the Academy of Agricultural Sciences could conduct more in-depth research on the breeding of beef cattle on the basis of developing yellow cattle. So, he was waiting here?

This guy is amazing!

"Great! Gu Zhan, your idea is brilliant."

Xia Yu patted Gu Zhan's shoulder, and the doubts in his heart were completely dispelled: "Okay, I will tell Dean Guo about the situation."

"no problem."

After Gu Zhan came out of the office area of ​​the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, he got up and went to the county town.

In order to save time, Zhou Jiawang sent a four-wheeled vehicle from the cattle farm to take Gu Zhan there.

Gu Zhan looked at the Xia County town gradually approaching the memory of future generations, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

It didn't take long before we arrived at the Xia County government.

The original bungalow had disappeared, replaced by a three-story office building. In his previous life, Gu Zhan had been in and out of this building countless times as an expert, but never had he felt as satisfied and excited as he did today.

Entering the office building, the doorman stopped Gu Zhan and asked, "Young man, who are you looking for?"

"Secretary Tian."

The gatekeeper squinted his eyes and looked at Gu Zhan for a long while before saying, "See Secretary Tian?"

Gu Zhan was about to explain when Hu Yonghua walked in from behind and saw Gu Zhan and said hurriedly, "Xiao Gu, you're here? It's been a long time since we last met.

"long time no see!"

"Are you here to see Secretary Tian? I'm here to see Secretary Tian too. Let's go in together."

As he said that, he patted Gu Zhan's shoulder and the two of them walked in together.

"Knock Knock Knock!"

Hearing the knock on the office door, Tian Yun called out, "Come in."

Hu Yonghua used to be Tian Yun's secretary, and the two had a good relationship. He smiled and said, "Secretary, besides me, there are others who want to see you today."

Before Hu Yonghua even entered the door, he spoke loudly to Tian Yun.

"Oh?"

"Look, who is this?"

As he said that, he pushed open the door of Tian Yun's office and let Gu Zhan walk in.

Seeing Gu Zhan coming in from outside, Tian Yun's expression was visibly stunned. He did not expect to see Gu Zhan at this time.

In the past few years, Xia County's development has been inseparable from consulting Gu Zhan, the military advisor, but most of the time, the consultations were through phone calls or letters, and there has never been a face-to-face meeting.

"Boy, you've made it." Tian Yun stood up and patted Gu Zhan on the shoulder: "Where is your work assignment?"

“Teaching at an Ontario university.”

When Tian Yun heard that Gu Zhan was going to be a teacher, he felt a little disappointed.

But then I thought that such an outstanding person would probably have many opportunities to choose, and the greater possibility is that the young man in front of me has his own ideas.

Tian Yun is a smart man, so he naturally won't interfere with Gu Zhan's decision openly.

"It's been a while since we last met. We really need to have a good chat. How about this? I'll call the director of the Agriculture Bureau and we can go out for dinner."

Thinking that they would be discussing the matter of Shanghe Village later, which would require the coordination and assistance of the Agricultural Bureau, Gu Zhan readily agreed.

After receiving the notice, Zhou Hao, director of the Agriculture Bureau, went to the Xia County Guesthouse with a lot of questions in his mind.

When I arrived at the arranged private room, I found that I was actually the first person to arrive.

About ten minutes later, around 12:20, Tian Yun walked into the private room with a young man in his twenties, chatting and laughing.

"This is Gu Zhan. I've told you many times before." Tian Yun introduced Gu Zhan to Zhou Hao.

When Zhou Hao heard Gu Zhan's name, he suddenly realized that they all knew that the reason why Xia County's economy was better developed than several surrounding counties was because Secretary Tian had a military advisor named Gu Zhan.

He had heard of this person from the former director of the Agricultural Bureau, Zhu Changzhi, but had never met him in person. When he saw him today, he was found to be a handsome man.

"Comrade Gu Zhan, I've long heard of your name."

"You're too kind, Director Zhou."

Halfway through the meal, the topic naturally turned to work. Tian Yun also had many confusing questions that needed to be answered: "Xiao Gu, what do you think of the current economic situation in Xia County?"

As the top leader, Tian Yun still has a clear idea of ​​the actual situation, but he wants to hear a more accurate answer from Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan thought for a moment and said, "The foundation is solid, but the motivation is insufficient."

"Okay, well said. I have a vague feeling about this as well, but I don't know where the breakthrough is right now!"

Tian Yun sighed, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and his face looked very fashionable and solemn.

Gu Zhan smiled and said, "Actually, our problem is easy to solve now. Xia County has been committed to developing the primary industry for the past four years. Now our primary industry is developing steadily and solidly. However, it is precisely because of this stability that the concentration of production factors has occurred, which has affected subsequent development."

"Makes sense."

"So, as I said before, now that our agriculture has developed, we need to stabilize the primary industry and develop the secondary industry, that is, our agricultural and sideline product processing industry. This will not only solve the problem of resource accumulation in Xia County, but also solve the same problem in surrounding counties, while also strengthening our local industrial cluster. It's a win-win situation, so why not do it?"

"You kid, I'm afraid you're talking nonsense. Our milk powder factory is still losing money!"

Gu Zhan frowned: How come he doesn’t know that the milk powder factory is losing money?
