SHE LIVE STREAMS MODERN LIFE TO ANCIENT PEOPLE AFTER FAILING TO CONQUER THE EMPE

Chapter 38: Asking the Professor about Rice Planting

Chapter 38
They seemed to see the future of their country, which would become so powerful, with all nations coming to pay tribute, stirring their hearts with excitement.

Gu Sang walked for about ten minutes on the school campus and finally arrived at the Agriculture Teaching Building.

At this time, the number of viewers watching the live broadcast had surged to ten thousand.

A few days earlier, Gu Sang had made an appointment with a professor in the agriculture department. She came to the professor's office and knocked on the door.

A clear, melodious feminine voice came from within: "Please come in."

Gu Sang pushed open the door and presented her student ID to the female professor.

"Professor, hello, I am the student who made an appointment with you online before."

The professor glanced at it. Her expression was usually serious, but her gaze was warm. "Please have a seat. What would you like to ask me, student?"

The ancient people had been full of expectation and excitement just a moment ago!

But then they were suddenly struck by a thunderbolt when they saw that the person Gu Sang had come to see was a middle-aged woman?? A woman???

They were instantly stunned, as if they had been drenched from head to toe with cold water, their entire bodies numb.

A sense of anger and despair washed over them.

Compared to the ministers' bewilderment, the greatest reaction came from the commoners oppressed by imperial power: "Why is it a woman? Women should stay at home and raise children, not show their faces in public."

"I put down my work and rushed over to see this? What a disappointment!"

"Hmph, this is clearly a trick of the charlatans. Everyone should not believe it."

"What can a woman possibly understand? Do you think it's fun to deceive us with talk of deities and future worlds? Nonsense! Surely a fraud!"

Gu Sang paid no heed to the ancient people's doubts.

Nor did she mind the glares and scowls of the ministers.

Changing such deep-rooted beliefs of over a thousand years was no easy task.

Just like in the present day, when a woman achieves something, most men and a few women still think she climbed to her position by using her body.

Without any evidence, they keep spreading vicious rumors!

How utterly tragic!

Gu Sang politely spoke up, "Hello, teacher. I would like to ask how food production can be increased in backward regions without modern technology?"

The professor looked at Gu Sang with approval. Sitting up straight, she answered sincerely:

"In backward regions without modern technology, huh?"

"They can choose to weed out the inferior plants, find strong mutant plant varieties, and then cross-pollinate them..."

"Secondly, they can make compost. People often like to use human excrement as fertilizer."

"But there is an even simpler method, which is to make fertilizer from plant stems, weeds, and mud from rivers and ponds... This type of fertilizer is more effective at enriching and improving the soil."

"For the regular rice grown by the commoners, it is actually a self-pollinating crop. To get good yields, they need to graft and hybridize."

"The method of selecting mutant plant varieties is to observe, pick out the 'king' plant in the entire rice field, and then..."
