I Have Awakened The Deduction System - Chapter 8

Chapter 8, Natural and Man-made Disasters, Famine Strikes

At the age of eight, He Chuan’s fame had reached its peak.

He had been known as a ‘prodigy’ and ‘genius’ since he was four years old.

Now, he was being sought after by countless people as a master of literature and art, and his fans were spread all over the world.

This name had already been deeply rooted in the hearts of people all over the world.

His deeds have become a more legendary existence than the protagonists in his novels.

Everyone thinks that only legends can write legends.

However, there is a deviation from what was known.

All the legends heard in the past were in books.

Now, there was a legend living in the world.

This was what they feel was the most wonderful place.

Many people came with admiration and curiosity.

They wanted to see He Chuan.

However, after he graduated from the Genius Class, he ignored the admission notice of many famous universities and completely disappeared.

At this time, He Chuan had already started to solve the difficult scientific research problems.

He started to research solutions to his illness.

During the few years he studied in the Genius Class, he crammed a lot of knowledge.

Now, he had a vague idea of the reason for his illness.

It was very complicated.

It couldn’t be explained in one or two sentences.

In general, it was a biological ‘mystery’. It wasn’t easy to solve this mystery.

Even with the help of the system, it was still difficult.

Parallel Earth calendar year 2014.

He Chuan was nine years old and was running around doing experiments.

The old professor he met in the library came when he heard the news. Using this relationship, he successfully rented a top laboratory in the country.

During this period, he spent countless materials and experimented several times.

Unfortunately, there was no progress on the topic related to He Clan’s Syndrome.

However, there are some new breakthroughs in the study of biology as a whole, but for now, the field of application is unknown.

Parallel Earth calendar 2015.

It is like the end of the world.

Various natural disasters occur frequently in the country. Earthquakes, droughts, torrential rains, ecological collapse, and grain production had been reduced by 90%, and livestock farming has also been hit.

Parallel Earth calendar year 2016.

The country’s grain reserves were in short supply. It fell into a period of poverty and weakness, and the economy was depressed.

Parallel Earth calendar year 2017.

He Chuan was also affected. He did not have enough food to eat, so he took the initiative to take advantage of a new breakthrough in biology. He stopped his original research and began to look for ways to cultivate high-yielding hybrid grain.

…

This year, He Chuan was 12 years old.

He looked a little mature, but now he was in a wheelchair.

Due to the fact that scientific research consumed too much energy, he was now paralyzed for almost a third of the time every day.

Now, he could only be pushed by his assistant on the streets that were no longer as prosperous as before.

There were traces of disasters everywhere.

The streets were dirty and messy. There was almost no place to stay.

“No one came to clean it up?” He asked softly.

Beside him, his assistant put on a mask for He Chuan, and at the same time, he replied, “At the beginning, they had been sending people to clean it up, but not long after they were done, there was a flood. After that, there was a series of earthquakes. The disaster did not stop… Now, there are shortages of supplies and food everywhere. There is really no choice but to leave it alone for the time being.”

He Chuan nodded his head in understanding.

His gaze swept across the street. There were not many shops that were open for business.

There were only some temporary stations that distributed daily necessities.

However, he did not see anything related to food.

“It seems that the problem is very serious.”

He Chuan sighed softly. Looking at the empty office building that reached into the clouds, he could not help but feel a little melancholic.

The assistant pushed him and told him what had happened in the outside world in the past two years.

The impact of this natural disaster was unprecedented.

In the two years since the grain production was greatly reduced, the country had also made some moves. The number of imports that should be increased had also increased. The adjustments that should be made had all been adjusted, but the effect was always limited.

After all, it was a large country with more than a billion people.

The amount of food consumed every day was very frightening.

It was unrealistic to rely entirely on import trade to solve the problem.

Moreover, the impact of natural disasters was far beyond what can be seen.

Natural and man-made disasters were always linked together.

All kinds of disasters and the shortage of food supply have caused many people to fall into panic.

At this time, who would still have the mood to work?

The output has plummeted in all walks of life.

The consequences were endless.

Of course, the main problem was food.

More than a billion people need to be fed.

They don’t have enough to eat every day, which was what needs to be solved.

But the consequences of this natural disaster were very serious.

It was no exaggeration to say that it has changed the environment of the land in the country to a certain extent.

Large areas of the affected land were no longer able to grow the original crops.

Now, even if they wanted to replant, there was no way.

Unless they could develop seeds that were more adaptable and produced more, saving the people of the country from suffering!

“If I can solve this problem, there will definitely be a lot of evaluation points.”

He Chuan tried to stretch his body and found that his right hand had recovered.

So he picked up his phone and made a call.

“I need an experimental plot.”

…

Over the years, as He Chuan’s fame grew, he also got to know many people.

Among them, there was no lack of high-level leaders of the state.

The higher-ups attached great importance to such a talent like him.

Naturally, they would not refuse this request.

What surprised He Chuan was that.

The state seemed to attach too much importance to him.

When he arrived at his destination, he found that he had not only taken over the experimental plot but also a professional R & D team was at his disposal.

It was full of agricultural bigwigs, all of whom were full of glory.

But now, they had become his subordinates.

This honor was not something that ordinary people could have.

Moreover, when the country was at its poorest, they had given him 30 million research funds.

The leader said that no matter how much progress was made or how much money was invested, the country would give its full support.

With such help, the experiment naturally went very smoothly.

[Hybrid rice A and B, the survival rate is less than 5%.]

[Hybrid rice A and C, yield per mu1 is less than 300 kilograms.]

[Hybrid rice B and C, unable to adapt (develop) to the following types of land.]

…

[Hybrid rice G1 and N7, perfect match!]

Looking at the results of the system’s deduction, He Chuan did not need to do too many experiments to find the most suitable hybrid rice seed.

The rest of the matters would be left to the group of agricultural bigwigs to do.

In the end, in just half a year’s time, the first generation of hybrid rice was bred, yielding 2,000 catties per mu!

One had to know that the maximum yield of ordinary rice growing in high-yielding fields was only less than 1,400 catties.

Now, the first round of cultivation had achieved a 50% increase in yield. As soon as this news was reported to the higher-ups, they were shocked.

Was this a joke?
