The Cannon Fodder of Fast Time Travel, She Chooses To Farm

  Chapter 61 The female supporting role chooses to farm (10)

  The Zhuangzi of the Wangfu was originally a mature small village. After the whole thing was bought by the Wangfu, the villagers became tenant farmers of the Wangfu, but they were not enslaved, which was equivalent to a binding employment relationship.

  When Xu Yin and his party arrived, the tenant farmers were all working in the fields, plowing the fields and transplanting rice seedlings.

  Uncle Wang, who is in charge of Zhuangzi, is the original village head, and he is very proficient in farming.

  Xu Yin didn't waste any time. As soon as she arrived, she ordered the guards to take Qu Yuanli off the carriage, and explained the operation method to Wang Boyi.

  Uncle Wang understood: It turned out to be a plow! It's just that the style is different from what they usually use. Since you want to try it, let's try it.

   Beckoning to a young man: "Take the plow and plow a section of the field for the nobleman to see."

  People in the nearby fields straightened up and looked over.

   Someone jokingly said: "Uncle Wang, why are you calling Liu Sheng to pull the plow? It's no wonder he can pull the plow with his small body! How about me?"

   As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the young man named Liu Sheng, pushing Qu Yuanli away with ease. It's really like walking in the fields, it seems that there is no effort at all.

  Everyone was astonished.

   Immediately one by one scrambled to try.

   It is hard to believe that Liu Sheng is so thin and thin, but he can push the plow. It usually takes a lot of effort to pull it.

  Looking at the place where Qu Yuanli passed by, not only the soil clods are dark in color and the particles are small, it can be seen that the plowing is deep and broken, but also pushed to the sides, like a boat, splitting the wind and waves to move forward.

   This is incredible!

  For farmers, what interest is better than the improvement of farm tools and the increase of yield per mu?

   Right now, the most labor-intensive but indispensable farm tool appeared in front of them. Who would not be surprised and cheered?

  All the peasants in the vicinity gathered around and tried it, and they all felt that the plow was easy to use.

  Not to mention light and labor-saving, the key is that the plowed land is deeper than that of an ox.

  Seeing that the effect is good, Xu Yin nodded in satisfaction and said to Uncle Wang:

   "I'll leave this one for you to use. I'll send another batch over tomorrow. In addition, I need a few acres of land for a test field. It's better to be closer to the main road at Zhuangzikou."

   She has to walk a long way.

   It would be great if there was rubber. Try to make tires. With tires, you can build bicycles.

   On the way, she asked the nanny and the maid, but unfortunately neither of them had heard of or seen anything like rubber.

   But she remembered that rubber is indeed a tropical crop. Could it be that it hasn’t been introduced to this continent yet?

  Back to the palace, the sky was already dark.

  The dinner in the mansion followed her and sent it to the side courtyard.

  Xu Yin came out of the shower and saw the rich dishes on the table, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows: so rich?

  Qiu Shuang replied: "The butler asked the girl if she was not satisfied with the food in the mansion, and she didn't send it to the big kitchen at noon, so she asked the big kitchen to prepare a table in the evening. I hope the girl is satisfied."

  Xu Yin: "..."

  Can she say that the big kitchen didn’t deliver it at noon because the breakfast was so rich that she couldn’t eat at noon?

  How embarrassed to say such a shameful thing.

   "Sit down and eat, everyone has worked hard today."

  Nurse Feng refused a few times, so she added a table in the corner, shared some of the dishes, and ate with the girl.

  In the other room, Yan Kejin was also eating, listening to Yan Qi's report on the movements of his unmarried concubine today, and when he heard Qu Yuanli, his hand holding the chopsticks paused.

   "You said she asked a carpenter to make a different plow than before, which is light and labor-saving to pull?"

"Yes, after listening to the report from the dark guard, I personally went to Zhuangzi to verify that it is not only light and labor-saving, but also the depth of the soil, the width of the soil, and the width of the soil can be arbitrary, and it is not a burden on the shoulders, but like a mill. Standing behind the plow, pushing forward Walking along, but it is far less labor-intensive than pushing a mill, and there is no hindrance to turning around. Uncle Wang said that with this plow, you can plow five or six acres more than before."

  What is this concept?

  It usually takes five days to plow the land, but now it can be done in one day, the key is not as tiring as before.

  Yan Kejin put down her chopsticks, wiped her hands, and sent out a series of instructions:

   "Nineteen is still in Linhai County? Fei Ge asked him to summon a group of craftsmen."

   "Can Shisan be in the mansion? Let him be responsible for purchasing the materials needed for the new plow."

   "As for the drawings, you go and talk to her... Forget it, I will go in person."

So, after a full meal, Xu Yin, who was holding a sweet and sour tea, was leaning on the imperial concubine's couch to teach Dongxue how to play backgammon leisurely. By the way, Xu Yin wondered whether she should come out with a whole set of mahjong or playing cards to enrich her nighttime entertainment life. Children's shoes, with a confused face, met the surprised gaze of the male master of the palace.

   "Are you playing chess?"

  Yan Kejin walked in casually.

   "..."

  Xu Yin exchanged glances with Nanny Feng behind the prince:

  Why is he here?

  Nurse Feng couldn't help but have a headache.

  The prince took time out of his busy schedule to see the girl, but the girl was too lazy to get up on the couch.

  Receiving the cue from Mammy's crazy eyes, Xu Yin remembered the etiquette here.

   "..."

  This damn...

   Tucao is Tucao, but I still have to keep my life.

  She got up quickly, but she didn't have time to salute, and was supported by Yan Kejin.

   "No courtesy."

  Yan Kejin didn't go around in circles, she just sat down and expressed her intentions.

  Xu Yin was stunned: "Quyuan... oh, just the plow I took to Zhuangzi this afternoon? Are you interested?"

  Yan Kejin listened to you and me in her words, twitched the corner of her mouth slightly, but didn't bother with her, rubbed her finger on the teacup offered by the nanny, lowered her eyes and said:

"You don't know, the reason why Yanhua regards Nanman as a dispensable and barren land is that one is miasma and heat, and the other is barren. The soil here is not as fertile as the north, and it is not suitable for growing wheat. Cotton is Not only is there no yield here, even if it is planted, the quality is not good enough.

  In contrast, only rice and millet have higher yields, but that requires deep cultivation. The plow you took to Zhuangzi in the afternoon is not only light and labor-saving, but also has a much better plowing depth and width than the previous plow. If it can be popularized, it will be the best. "

   Xu Yin would not agree to anything that would benefit the common people.

   Besides, she already had the idea of ​​promoting Qu Yuanli.

   It's just that the iron sheets she can buy are limited, and she can't mass-produce Quyuanli to the whole Nanman.

   Now that King Jinnan is willing to take the initiative to take over this matter, it is equivalent to reducing the burden on her, and it is too late to be happy, so who would mind!

  The drawings are here, thank you for taking them away!

  By the way, an improved fertilization method will be presented.

   In addition, she has long wanted to say:

"Actually, the climate here is suitable for growing winter wheat. What kind of spring wheat can be grown? Spring wheat is drought-resistant and not heat-tolerant, but here, it is humid and hot, and there are frequent showers. No matter how careful it is, it will not be able to grow the yield in the north. It's all in vain!"

  This is the same as "Oranges grown in Huainan are oranges, and oranges grown in Huaibei are oranges".

   Three shifts~

   Request the first order of Chapter 58! Ask for a monthly pass!
