Vézé stayed in Nanjing for less than two days before he left in a hurry. There was no grand welcome and no vigorous promotion. Therefore, the Hungarian students in Nanjing had no idea that the famous Emperor of China in Europe had passed by them. At this time, the Hungarian students were sighing about Nanjing, the city that never sleeps in the east.
In their opinion, the population of Nanjing was more than the population of the whole country of Hungary, and the internal combustion engine vehicles of Nanjing were more than the internal combustion engine vehicles of the whole country of Hungary. The viaducts built on dry land and the wide roads paved with asphalt from the United States all showed the strength of the great industrial country. The Hungarian students could no longer describe their feelings. When the world they were in was completely beyond their imagination, words seemed pale and powerless.
The Hungarian students found that in addition to the magnificent and powerful Min dynasty, it was surprisingly easy to live here. For example, they could help in the Hungarian major of the Min dynasty Foreign Languages Institute. For a small language like Hungarian, the Min dynasty invested little in it and had a weak foundation. These students could earn some living expenses by helping. While helping the Min dynasty improve the Hungarian major, the Hungarian students also learned Chinese, and more importantly, China's political and revolutionary theories.
In such a hot summer evening, the Hungarian students sat in a night market. Roasted lamb leg, roasted squid, spicy crayfish, river snails, salted duck, and cut baked sesame seed cake were placed on two tables that were put together. Bottles of beer were opened. Everyone, regardless of men or women, picked up a bottle of beer, clinked bottles, and then raised their heads to drink a few mouthfuls. The young girls blushed, perhaps from the effects of the wine, perhaps from shyness. In Nanjing, which was called the "City of Light" by the Europeans, everyone naturally sat together to eat and talk. In Hungary, which was dominated by agriculture, men and women eating together so easily would be regarded as some kind of attitude close to liberality.
After eating and drinking for a while, suddenly a girl's eyes turned red and she cried. Everyone was very surprised, and then they heard the girl cry and say, "It's so hot here! And there are too many people! The food is so strange! And we have to take the bus! And we have to learn to ride a bicycle! Woo … "
The young Hungarian students were speechless after hearing this. It was not easy for them to adapt to such a life. Before they came to China, they thought that they could find a solution to the Hungarian problem in the countryside of China. No one expected that they would be thrown into such a big city. Of course, everyone could understand why she was crying. She was homesick.
At this moment, the boss brought a plate over. "Your grilled chicken wings and stir-fried starch jelly. Jiao Pi has already done that. "
When the boss put down the food, the crying girl sniffled as she picked up a bamboo spoon and began to eat the hot starch jelly. Young people's appetites weren't easily satiated. The girls had said that China's food was strange, and that was what everyone was thinking. But strange doesn't mean bad. To Hungarians, these Chinese dishes are delicious. Therefore, everyone ate and drank, and soon blended into the atmosphere of the night market.
The next day, the international students received a notice that they would be taken to the countryside for a field trip. The Hungarian students were excited to finally be able to come into contact with China's rural areas. On the same day, they prepared to cross the river by boat. They went against the current and entered the waterway. All the embankments they saw were made of stones and cement, and they looked very solid. The banks on both sides of the river were densely covered with trees, and they couldn't see through them at all.
When they woke up on the boat, they saw that it had arrived at the pier on the shore of the lake. There was a road next to the pier, and they continued north by car. After passing through the vast forest belt, they saw the river and large tracts of paddy fields. The temperature in the Yangtze River Basin was much higher than in Hungary, and it was the first time these young people were so close to the paddy fields. The beautiful paddy flowers were very rare, and the white geese leisurely swimming in the paddy fields reminded the Hungarian students of the swans in Lake Balaton.
During the day, the students met with the members of the production team. The farmers were surprised to see this group of foreigners. At night, they patrolled to familiarize themselves with the situation. The young people felt that it was rare to patrol with a flashlight. This thing was much stronger than a torch. When they arrived at the paddy fields, they heard some rustling sounds of water. Apart from the croaking of frogs, there seemed to be many creatures tossing and turning on the surface of the water.
"Don't worry, those are rice-flower fish," the leader said.
When they shone the flashlight, they saw many fish swimming under the light of the flashlight. The Hungarian students were very surprised, and they quickly asked, "Isn't this a farmland?"
The leader didn't know much about the situation in Hungary, so he felt that the reaction of the international students was very strange. The Min dynasty made full use of farmland. With the popularization of agricultural technology, it was common knowledge to raise fish, geese, and ducks in the paddy fields. The leader heard that Hungary was an agricultural country, and he really didn't understand the question of the young international students.
In the next few days, the group of young people worked with the production team. They patrolled, took samples, drove ducks, and collected duck eggs. Because they were new, they were bullied by the big white geese. The Hungarians had a deep psychological pressure to hurt the swans, so they were not surprised to be beaten by the big white geese. When the paddy flowers withered and the plump ears of rice began to take shape, the production team took the international students to part of the ridge, and let the water flow into a pond in the middle of the paddy fields. Before long, the farmers began to catch the rice-flower fish that came from the paddy fields in the pond.
The Hungarian international students were shocked. They didn't understand what magic the Chinese farmers had used to make the carp run to the pond in the middle of the paddy fields willingly. After asking, they found out that the water level in the paddy fields had dropped, and the oxygen content in the water had decreased under the sun. As an aquatic animal, the carp were very sensitive to this, so they naturally moved to the water with higher oxygen content. When the rice-flower fish in the pond had left, the Chinese farmers sealed the gap again, applied fertilizer in a belt, and pumped water from the pond to replenish the water in the paddy fields.
The Hungarian international students were very surprised by such meticulous farming skills. They had never seen such meticulous farming in Hungary. There was a lot of land there, and the farming steps were very simple. They didn't have the idea of interplanting.
Then the Hungarian students attended a meeting, which was a meeting of the production team. The production team often had meetings, and the topics discussed at the meetings were related to the production schedule. The Hungarian students were not familiar with Chinese, so they were confused by the local dialect near Chao Lake. They could only barely read the Chinese characters written by the farmers on the blackboard, and with the explanation of the leader, they could understand it.
The leader himself didn't understand agriculture, so he could only talk about the temperature and sunshine days used by the farmers. As for the specific relationship between these data and farming, he had no idea at all. The leader didn't know anything, let alone the Hungarian students. Just when they thought the meeting was about the same content, it turned out that the first half of the meeting was true. But in the second half, the content of the meeting became, "Should we sell the rice-flower fish directly, or make it into dried fish and buy it in the winter?"
The leader had no interest in this topic. After listening to the farmers' discussion about the delayed payment, they decided to make it into dried fish after a discussion about the price. He thought to himself, "These guys really know how to make a lot of money." Because the rice-flower fish tasted much better than the ordinary carp raised in the pond, the price of the rice-flower fish had been quite high in the past two years.
However, after the meeting, the leader saw the group of international students excitedly surrounding the leader and asking several questions. These questions all pointed to the core, "These farmers who contracted the land from the state really have the right to decide how to deal with the agricultural products."
At first, the leader couldn't understand this kind of stupid question. The farmers of the Min dynasty had the right to deal with the products on the contracted land for more than 20 years. Especially after the complete abolition of agricultural taxes, and there was no need to pay public grain, the agricultural products produced by the Min dynasty farmers within the scope of use were completely handled by them.
After a while of communication, the leader finally understood what these Hungarian students were excited about. Half of the land in Hungary was in the hands of the local big landlords, and more than 3/4 of the farmers had no land at all, or only a very small amount of land. The farmers were seriously short of land. Compared with the meticulous farming of the Min dynasty farmers, the big landlords' farming of the land could only be described as "barbaric."
The purpose of the Hungarian students studying in the Min dynasty was to get in touch with the most advanced revolutionary system. In the past few days, they had been constantly collecting information. These students confirmed that the peasants here had each contracted twenty mu of land from the government, and the production team had been chosen by the fifty or so peasants according to the many models provided by the government, rather than being forced by the government to set up the production team. These free farmers formed the production team according to their free will, and decided the production team's affairs according to the democratic model of the minority being subordinate to the majority.
After learning the reason for the Hungarian students' excitement, the leader still couldn't understand it. This idea of the land revolution had existed for a long time. With the expansion of the Min dynasty, the quantity of land was no longer a problem, and this agricultural production model could be truly implemented. Ten years ago, the per capita paddy field in the countryside was no more than 5 mu. At that time, the struggle between the farmers was very fierce. Even if the government sent people to manage the river, the farmers still did a lot of things. For example, regardless of the consequences, after the government announced that it would be rainy in the future, they still wildly pumped water from the river. When the water was full, and then the rain poured down, the water overflowed from the farmland. They didn't feel that they had caused any loss to the whole.
When each person was assigned 20 mu of paddy field, the heavy workload made it impossible for the individual to complete the management of these paddy fields, and then the cooperative system began to become popular. The government also provided many models to judge the labor force, which were popularized by the local government to the farmers, and the disputes became fewer and fewer.
