Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Chapter 207 Fished a national treasure from the river? [Double ask for a monthly ticket and ask for a subscription]

That night.

Cao Ang looked at the solid plank under his feet.

Looking far into the distance at the calm river, the whole person's heart is full of comfort.

Can't help but stretched heavily.

Since Diao Chan and the Empress Dowager needed more times to get boarding opportunities, Cao Ang didn't count them in detail.

But he didn't expect that when he returned home in a hurry, he unexpectedly unlocked a chance to board the ship.

It is quite a gratifying thing, after all, Dong Bai's serious illness has almost recovered, and he can fish another item from the river, no matter how you think about it, it is a matter of making a lot of money.

And Cao Ang pondered for a while.

I think Diao Chan's and the Queen Mother's cool-down period should be similar, it's just a few days before and after.

That being the case.

Then in the next few days, I will go to the queen mother a few more times, maybe I can board the ship again.

After thinking about it for a while.

Cao Ang secretly wrote down this matter in his heart.

Then he strolled to the side of the boat, and without any hesitation, threw out the golden fishing rod in his hand.

Fly into the river with the fishing line.

Waited for less than half a cup of tea.

There was a burst of ripples on the river surface, and the fishing line that went straight into the water began to shake.

Probably waited a few breaths.

As Cao Ang pulled up the fishing rod, a boxy brocade box was pulled onto the deck.

……

Feel free to stick the fishing rod against the side of the boat.

Cao Ang couldn't wait to open the brocade box.

What caught my eye were two volumes of thread-bound books. Judging from the appearance of the cover, the craftsmanship was quite sophisticated, and the quality of the paper was quite good when touched by hand.

It just makes Cao Ang feel strange.

There is no word on the cover of these two volumes of thread-bound books. Even after opening the pages, they are also blank, and there is no word to be found.

Ok?
Cao Ang was a little confused.

Could it be that he caught the Wordless Heavenly Book?

According to various routines, generally this kind of wordless heavenly book needs to be roasted with fire, or sprinkled with water. This kind of method is beyond the imagination of normal people, so that the handwriting can be revealed.

But Cao Ang felt that the things made from this river should not have such cerebral palsy.

This made him take out the book involuntarily, and then rummaged through the brocade box again.

Then he took out a stack of notes.

This time there are words.

Each note is a noun, and a series of food crops such as "millet", "millet", "wheat" and "rice" are written in sequence.

Counting down, there are dozens of them.

These things should be related to the thread-bound books themselves, but I don't know the specific situation.

After pondering for a while.

Cao Ang didn't dare to act casually, chose to put the things back to their original positions, and then walked quickly to the stone tablet.

Carefully interpret the inscription on the stele.

……

"Article name: Self-selected booklet of improvement methods for fine breeding and selection of grain crops.

Function: Each volume of books corresponds to a food crop. After choosing the desired food crop, the content of the corresponding crop will be displayed on the top of the wordless book.

Remarks: Those who select and breed, make good use of the method of improvement and have countless living people, can be called great saints! "

This is the first time Cao Ang has seen an item with such a long name, and it is also the first time he has encountered a treasure that gave him the right to choose independently.

Among the dozens of main food crops, choose two and paste them on the corresponding books, and the two volumes of books will be able to show the corresponding positions.

Why does it feel a bit like an item selection box?

It is too advanced!

But after sighing.

Cao Ang began to think seriously.

It is quite a privilege to be able to give him the right to choose independently, instead of just forcing him into a preferred breeding method for food crops.

Then all he has to do is make good use of it.

Such a great opportunity cannot be wasted.

Choosing one at random, but not using it at all right now, is a huge waste of this hard-won opportunity.

Cao Ang walked quickly back to the box.

Then he flipped out the pile of notes again.

Start to pick and choose carefully.

……

Generally follow the following principles.

One is to belong to the mainstream crops of the current era. Only when they occupy a larger proportion in the agricultural structure of the Han Dynasty, it will be more cost-effective to optimize and improve them to cultivate good varieties.

The second one is that in this era, the crops in the Central Plains, such as corn and sweet potatoes, can bring a lot of food even if they know that they are high-yield.

Cao Ang would not choose either.

Because there is no such thing in the current Han Dynasty.

When he finds the seeds of corn and sweet potatoes and cultivates them, no one in the world will know how many people have starved to death.

No matter how good the future is, if it is not needed now and cannot be quickly transformed into a resource, then its priority can only be ranked at the bottom.

The last requirement is to improve the difficulty of cultivation, which is also within the scope of consideration.

Although this stack of notes did not say who is difficult and who is easy, there will be no steps shown before the choice.

But Cao Ang himself has a basic logical judgment. He can only rule out food crops that may take a long time, or even consume a lot of manpower and material resources, to carry out little by little improvement experiments.

It is always impossible to choose a high-yield crop.

As a result, it took several generations of time to cultivate and improve. Then maybe a generation of monarchs and ministers are gone, and this thing has not been improved.

What is the point?

Combining the above principles.

Cao Ang finally made a choice.

……

Look at the few notes in front of you.

Cao Ang first moved out millet and bean, which are two food crops that have gradually withdrawn from the stage of the times, and do not account for much of the current main food production.

Secondly, after some ideological struggle.

The rice was moved out again.

It must be admitted that Cao Ang was very tempted when he saw the rice.

The reputation of this thing is really too great!
But after rational thinking, Cao Ang could only choose to give up.

Because the center of gravity of the country is now in the north, the center of gravity of politics, economy, culture, and even population is all in the north.

Compared with the north, the south is in an absolutely unbalanced state. Although rice, a crop, can be grown in the north, it is far less effective than in the south.

As for the Liaodong region in the north, where rice can be grown on a large scale, a small part is currently in the hands of Gongsun Kang, and most of them belong to foreign regions.

Then choose rice blindly.

As a result, after the improvement was developed, it failed to produce much effect.

That would be considered blind.

Perhaps in the future, after the whole country is unified, Cao Ang will gradually develop the vast areas in the south and raise the level of development in the south.

But that is also a long process.

It cannot be achieved overnight.

And after the whole country is unified, they can continue to expand to the south, where there are some high-yielding rice seeds, so there is no need to waste opportunities now.

So after several exclusions.

There were only two notes left in front of Cao Ang.

"millet" "wheat"

This is Cao Ang's choice.

The former is currently the most grain crop in the Han Dynasty, and it plays a pivotal role in the proportion of grain output in this era.

Although wheat is not as important as millet.

But it has also emerged.

At the same time, wheat is mainly produced in the north. It is a crop that can be researched and selected in the shortest time, and then put to use as quickly as possible to increase food production.

These two are basically the optimal solution after combining all the items, so Cao Ang did not hesitate to stick the two pieces of paper on the two blank thread-bound books.

……

"laugh!"

Follow Cao Ang to make a choice.

Words began to gradually appear on the two volumes of books, while the rest of the unselected notes ignited spontaneously without fire and quickly turned into fly ash.

After a moment.

Two books appeared in Cao Ang's hands, full of words. The thickness of the books was even slightly different because of the different varieties.

After getting the finished product.

Cao Ang couldn't wait to open the book.

The inside is densely packed with words, for Cao Ang who doesn't know much about agriculture, and can even be said to know nothing except for some corner information.

These two things are basically equivalent to the heavenly scriptures.

Unless he can calm down, immerse himself in the book, read through it slowly, and conduct research in conjunction with the real thing.

Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to understand.

But at least he can understand the text.

There are some very conspicuous title-type words, Cao Ang can still understand the meaning.

Roughly flipped over.

The book includes how to choose grain seeds, how to cultivate them, and under what conditions, what kind of operations need to be carried out in order to achieve a greater probability of success.

These are the contents of the book.

And take wheat as an example.

The book also lists the cultivation direction of wheat.

Including high yield, strong adaptability, resistance to diseases and insects, lodging resistance, temperature resistance and cold resistance.

……

"Hush...huh!"

After closing the book, Cao Ang closed his eyes and leaned against the side of the boat.

The whole person couldn't help but took several deep breaths one after another, only feeling agitated and inexplicably lost.

Good stuff, this is definitely good stuff!
After advancing, the surface of the river really became extraordinary, and such a precious thing could be obtained from it.

Anything related to food.

In the era of feudal economy, it was enough to be called an artifact of the country, it was enough to influence the times, and it could be called a pivotal treasure.

Whether a country is stable or not depends on the living conditions of the vast majority of people.

If the vast majority of the people can fill their stomachs, it means that the country is in a stable and prosperous stage. If the people never have the trouble of being hungry, then the country can enjoy long-term stability.

All activities such as peasant uprisings are basically due to the fact that ordinary people cannot afford to eat.

Everyone is going to starve to death.

So take the risk and fight to the death.

But if everyone has food in their hands, then basically no one will take the risk and risk the possibility of beheading against the country, but will live their small lives in peace and stability.

This is the importance of food.

……

As long as Cao Ang can successfully evolve wheat and corn, these two food crops can evolve even one generation.

Being able to increase production, or adapt to the environment, etc., is enough to give him an advantage in the process of growing his power.

same size place.

In the territory under his control, the food output is much more than that of other forces.

Then Cao Ang can recruit more soldiers and horses.

Be able to have the confidence to carry out a larger-scale decisive battle.

At that time, there will be no force in the world that is qualified to wage a war of attrition with him.

It's time to compete for productivity.

Even any force will be dragged to death by him forcefully.

When the basic agricultural technology is ready, it is like the roots of a tree are strong, and the branches that go up will naturally grow strong.

There is no doubt about that.

Even in the future, when the Cao family took Liu's surname and replaced it, and established the Great Wei Dynasty.

Can also rely on such a skill.

Let the dynasty last for hundreds of years, or even hundreds of years.

all in all.

Today is definitely a treasure!

……

of course.

Good things are good.

But also put it into practice.

It is useless to stay in theory. You must find a reliable person to gradually turn the content recorded in the book into reality.

It's just a matter of selection...

Cao Ang was a little bit in trouble.

For such an important weapon in the country, it is necessary to choose a reliable person, that is, someone who is enough for him to trust completely.

Secondly, you must be capable.

Otherwise, just having trust, holding a book but being blindsided, not knowing what to do, wouldn't it be tantamount to blindness?

But to balance the two words.

Hiss...it is indeed a bit difficult!
Each name, in Cao Ang's mind, spun back and forth like a revolving lantern.

Many figures appeared.

But he was quickly removed.

After thinking for a while, Cao Ang reluctantly selected a few people.

But whether it will work or not.

I'm afraid we will have to wait for the actual investigation to find out.

Carefully closed the two books and put them back into the brocade box.

Cao Ang closed his eyes.

Then consciousness left the deck.

…………

The next morning.

Cao Ang looked at Diao Chan who was still sleeping beside him, and did not disturb her dream.

But after gently brushing the hair with the fingertips.

It fell silently.

He changed into his robe and headed towards the government office.
