Lush green grass, and a gentle breeze.
Ding Yue lay on the broad sunlit lawn, hands behind his head, bathing in the warm sunshine.
On his left lay his secretary Wen Ruohan.
On his right lay the robot Big White.
At this mont, ti seed to slow down, and the pace of life suddenly entered a state of enjoying the sunshine, basking in warmth.
The laughter and happy voices of students could be heard nearby.
This large sunlit lawn of the College of Agriculture and Forestry had beco another beloved spot for the students of Mist City Arts and Science University.
The previous such place was the Book Ship Library.
And the one before that was the second canteen.
When Ding Yue ca to this sunlit lawn today, he was indeed a little surprised because he originally thought this place was just a casual attempt to create a sort of farm or pasture by the College of Agriculture and Forestry. He didn’t expect even a simple makeover, but to his surprise, it was made quite exquisite.
To the northwest indeed lay another pasture, which did not look as refined as the sunlit lawn here, and the type of grass was probably different too.
Because Director Jia Nong told Ding Yue that the pasture in the northwest was for raising livestock, that area could be used for cattle, sheep, and horses and was part of the "pastoral" content.
Although the College of Agriculture and Forestry is only nad for agriculture and forestry, its scope of disciplines is not limited to these; it also includes fisheries and animal husbandry. Agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and animal husbandry have been the foundation of Xia Country for thousands of years, and even in the modern age, these sectors will continue to exist for a long ti.
It’s just that agriculture, forestry, fisheries, and animal husbandry will also adopt modern equipnt.
"Director Jia, if you all in the College of Agriculture and Forestry do well, who knows, you might just cultivate a great figure like Master Yuan," said Ding Yue, enjoying the sun and casually reminding Director Jia Nong of the College of Agriculture and Forestry.
The task of discovering talent within the College of Agriculture and Forestry is definitely sothing Ding Yue doesn’t have the energy to pay attention to, so it falls to Director Jia Nong to handle.
"Principal Ding has such high expectations for our College of Agriculture and Forestry, the pressure is not small on ," replied Jia Nong.
After all, cultivating a great agricultural figure of Master Yuan’s caliber is no small feat.
"Hahaha."
Hearing this, Ding Yue couldn’t help but burst out laughing and then asked, "In the past two or three years, Director Jia, have you spotted any top-notch talents erging within the College of Agriculture and Forestry?"
If there were promising top students in the College of Agriculture and Forestry, Ding Yue might consider selecting them and giving them a boost himself, perhaps they could engage in agricultural technology research.
"There are so," responded Director Jia Nong: "Now that our modern Ecological Agriculture Garden has been established, there are indeed a few students who show remarkable talent in this area."
"Really?"
"Principal Ding, I’ve given it so thought, and with further observation, they might complete their studies a year ahead this year, and then we can see if they can continue to excel and achieve even higher accomplishnts," analyzed Director Jia Nong.
He was still concerned that the students of the College of Agriculture and Forestry might not yet be ready to show their capabilities.
After all, the top departnts of Mist City Arts and Science University, like chanical engineering, architecture, computer science, dical school, had already nurtured exceptionally talented research students.
Since the College of Agriculture and Forestry started its developnt a bit later than those leading departnts, Jia Nong felt it needed more ti.
"That works, oh right, I rember we sent a group of students from the College of Agriculture and Forestry on a targeted poverty alleviation project. It’s already September, how is that going?" asked Ding Yue, suddenly recalling this matter.
On Ding Yue’s task panel, the targeted poverty alleviation project had not yet been completed, but after thinking it over, Ding Yue figured it must be nearly done since it had been more than half a year.
If he rembered correctly, a group of students from the College of Agriculture and Forestry had gone to several impoverished rural areas under Mist City at the beginning of the last year to help with the planting of cash crops for poverty alleviation.
"Principal Ding, the cash crops we planted have yielded well, and the market has been found. Now, a number of students from the College of Agriculture and Forestry have already returned increntally. About sixty or so are still staying in the rural areas," answered Director Jia Nong.
"Oh, well done indeed," said Ding Yue upon hearing this, praising them.
Indeed, the students from the College of Agriculture and Forestry deserved praise for leaving the city for impoverished villages with harsh living conditions, yet still steadfastly guiding the villagers in planting cash crops.
From the start of spring to the arrival of autumn, through three seasons, as the principal, Ding Yue couldn’t help but comnd the students.
Although Ding Yue initially encouraged the students of the College of Agriculture and Forestry to complete the task by providing them with nurous campus incentives, their hard work and efforts were praiseworthy!
"Yes, this sumr at Baogu Village, we led the villagers to grow improved waterlons that were truly sweet. Since it’s close to the main urban area of Mist City, the transportation costs were low, so the prices were relatively cheap. The sweet and affordable large waterlons sold very well. The supply couldn’t et the demand. Baogu Village is planning to expand next year and grow more Baogu big waterlons."
