Villager of Daming

Chapter 310 Not only technology but also concept (fifth change)

It didn't take a quarter of an hour for the chief to go back to the second floor, just a few words.

He carried a tray with a five-liter tankard and two small beer glasses, along with brine edamame and lo mei.

"This is..." Zhu Biao was at a loss. He thought that Zhu Lichang went to ask the expert, but the other party really took something?
"We will have lunch in less than an hour, and His Highness happened to take the food with him when he left."

Li Chang took everything down, among which Sichuan pickles were the most delicious, without chili, sweet and sour, with ginger sprouts in them.

Zhu Biao reached out to help, and put the ice cubes in the bowl next to them into the two cups.

Lichang pours the beer, the beer brewed in this way has a high concentration, and a part of it can be diluted by soaking in ice cubes.

He also adjusted the position of serving dishes, that is, a little farther away from himself and a little closer to the prince, even a little, to show etiquette.

"Your Highness is not busy for a while. After you go back, you can't go to the main hall anymore. You have to make arrangements."

The head of the village told Zhu Biao why he brought the wine and vegetables, and it was an hour behind the whole Shandong wheat planting and other crops?
"Alright! Uh! Where's Hanhan?" Zhu Biao agreed while drinking, looking around and feeling that something was missing.

"Let Hanhan come?" The head of the village didn't want to call Hanhan, Hanhan was quite comfortable staying by himself, did he have to cooperate with the acting here?
"It's not necessary, it's just that every time I drink, there is Hanhan."

Zhu Biao waved his hands, he also knew that it was hot and everyone didn't like to move, probably Hanhan was sleeping.

The chief was happy, and moved a plate of thousand sheets of silk: "His Royal Highness, try this thousand sheets of silk. It is marinated first, then smoked, and then shredded. It is very tasty and has a good taste."

Zhu Biao took a little bite according to his words, chewed carefully, and nodded.

The village chief then began to talk about things: "Your Highness, do you know what farm tools many people use? There are also wooden weeding shovels in Xiaqiu Village."

He had to clarify this matter first, not all people have hoes, picks, picks, hammers, hammers, shovels...

How much iron does that add up to?Just like every family has to thresh and cook, but not everyone has a mill, everyone just has a stone mortar.

Zhu Biao paused while serving the wine: "Shandong didn't have enough tools when harvesting wheat?"

"Stones are used, lead and copper are used, and some iron sickles have been ground so that only one-third of them are left. If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools."

The head of the village told Zhu Biao the specific situation of the people. They were short of iron, very short of iron, and they had been fighting all the time. Now they are not as good as in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Zhu Biao took a sip of wine: "I am working hard on mining and smelting, and I made one in an open hearth furnace, which is easy to use, and I will build more in the future.

Shandong needs a good sickle?There is still a month, there is still time, build, let them use a new good scythe.

We did not have much iron before the Ming Dynasty. Iron is not gold and silver, and it will rot away after a long time. "

Zhu Biao explained and introduced to the head of the village that he felt guilty when he faced the head of the village, and felt that the expert had told you so many skills, and you didn't hurry up, the expert was very disappointed.

"Your Highness, don't worry, can't we open the way this year? After planting soybeans in Shandong, water them a few times, and come here by boat to mine.

Even if we dug for two months, we gave them money, asked them what they wanted to buy, and sent them back together when the time came.

Waiting to harvest soybeans, plant winter wheat, and then come to mine, both parties will benefit. "

The head of the village comforted the prince and suggested that the court organize people to work, especially idle labor.

Zhu Biao thought for a while: "This is not bad, what else?"

"Harvesting technique and posture, men... the stubble is long, and women... the stubble is short.

General situation!After the wheat is harvested in Shandong, long stubble is left, which will be burned and turned into plant ash, which also kills insects and bacteria.

However, some beneficial things were also burned. Fortunately, there will be a rainy summer and autumn, so that the beneficial things will multiply again.

Nowadays, if you choose to plant in rotation, you can't burn it. If you don't burn it, there will be diseases and insect pests, which need to be killed with lime water.

In dry soil, soybean planting should be planted directly, and then watered, because the germination speed is particularly fast when the seeds are soaked, and the demand for water in the soil increases.

Shandong can speed up the speed by soaking seeds, because they will have more rain later, and they also have wells, wells for drought resistance.

The seeds in Xiaqiu Village will be treated before planting, including salt water selection and killing of wheat and rice..."

The head of the village patiently explained the techniques of farming to Zhu Biao, including spraying the leaves with magnesium sulfate heptahydrate as he said before.

Zhu Biao listened carefully and memorized hard. He knew what the most powerful thing in Xiaqiu Village was.

In the past, there were experts, but now the whole village has studied hard and mastered many technologies. Knowledge that can be applied immediately is the most precious wealth.

Even if Xiaqiu Village has lost everything now, people are alive, and they take the village guards away to other places, it won't take long for them to restore their current prosperity.

Zhu Biao even believed that if the people in Xiaqiu Village were thrown onto the barren grassland, the village would rise rapidly within a few years.

The expert taught the skill to Xiaqiu Village, and Xiaqiu Village without an expert is still the number one village in the world.

"Is there any more?" Zhu Biao was embarrassed, staring at him and asking, but he had to ask, what if there were?

"Your Highness, there is a common cognitive problem among the people today, that is, it costs more money to hire someone, it is better to do it yourself.

Not to mention Shandong, the distribution of land in many places is not very uniform, with more people on land and more people on less land.

And there are tenants and sharecroppers.But seeing that the land they planted has been harvested, they are unwilling to spend money to ask others to help.

They would rather suffer by themselves and sleep less, but also save this money, and it feels distressing to give it out. "

The head of the village talked about the common thinking mode, including the former Xiaqiu Village.

Later, it was Hanhan who demanded that he must be hired, so that his own people could not be exhausted, so he gave up a part and got more.

If you do it yourself, you can get [-] Wen, but if you find someone to do it, you will spend [-] Wen, but you can receive [-] Wen.

Don't stare at the [-], but look at the extra [-]. If you don't give out the [-], can you earn it yourself?
Now Xiaqiu Village basically does not do much work by itself, except for glass blowing and weapon making.

He has changed from a basic worker to a manager, and he does not lose money when he pays others.

The head of the village told Zhu Biao a little bit about the situation. This is the difference between a businessman and an ordinary person. A businessman knows how to calculate the input-output ratio and the difference in overall income.

Zhu Biao had already drank two glasses of beer, and he picked up the towel on the table to wipe his sweat: "Master Zhu, do you want to be an official?"

"No, I just want to be my chief, and let the children become officials when they grow up.

I have money in Xiaqiu Village, and they promise not to take bribes because they know how easy it is for the village to make money.

New children are born one after another, and they will grow up after all, and the years will not stop because of anyone. "

The head of the village refused to become an official. He didn't want to be a county magistrate at all. His responsibility was to guard the village.

　There is Chapter 6, but there is no Chapter 7. I will try to make up that chapter tomorrow. My throat is not too sore, and my condition is improving!
