My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 528 This is how the world should be, isn’t it? A conversation spanning nineteen hundred years!
Ying Chengyu said in a low voice: "I am deeply aware that the whole world is trapped by food and grass during this foreign war."

"And I, Da Qin, am especially serious!"

"I have gone on expeditions many times, and each expedition lasted several times longer than the original military strategy. This has also caused our Great Qin's food and grass to become increasingly overwhelmed!"

"It rained heavily from the sky, but my country, Qin, didn't have much food left to provide relief."

"It actually made me, the head of Qin Dynasty and Guizhou Province, likely to be displaced and die of cold and starvation just after encountering a minor disaster!"

Food cannot appear out of thin air from the ground, but requires human labor to cultivate and harvest it.

The main force in farming is also the main force in fighting.

This leads to the fact that although Ying Chengyu has won many battles and expanded his territory, making Da Qin's territory twice as large as that of Da Qin at the same time in history, Da Qin's situation is even more difficult than in its original history!

Because Ying Chengyu's victory was achieved at the cost of a large number of young men leaving farming and fighting abroad!
The former Ying Chengyu also knew that food was very important, so he would spend time developing the Chang'an plow.

But Ying Chengyu, who has lived in two lifetimes, has never been hungry even once.

Without his intervention, life in Guanzhong would still be difficult, but it wouldn’t be this difficult!
Qi Ai hurriedly handed over his hand: "Your Majesty has developed the Chang'an plow, which can greatly relieve the grain and grass shortage of our Da Qin."

But all people in the world no longer have to worry about hunger and poverty!

"Whenever there is a natural disaster, the people will be in dire straits!"

Ying Chengyu has no desire for war and killing.

"The Chang'an plow is mainly used to assist farming. It can help the Guizhou leaders to cultivate more acres of land when there are not enough cattle and young men."

Even Ying Chengyu has a sadly thick barrier with today's Guizhou leaders.

"The Chang'an plow can indeed increase grain production, but the amount of grain that can be increased by the Chang'an plow alone is limited."

Having never experienced it, Ying Chengyu still cannot understand the desire for food and the meaning of food to those who have been struggling to death from starvation all year round, let alone what a stone of food means to them.

"As long as I, Da Qin, cultivate and live for a few years, I will be able to accumulate enough food for your Majesty to have a hearty battle!"

Therefore, he is completely unable to sympathize with the hardships of those who have no food to eat. His understanding of food is that it is very important, is the foundation of life, can be used as money, can be used to reward others, will affect national security, and restricts Daqin. The pace of battle and other cold considerations.

"It takes several years of savings to support me in the great Qin war."

"Of course, a person's distance is limited, and the number of acres that can be taken care of is also limited."

Han Cang did not comfort Ying Chengyu, but looked at Ying Chengyu with gratitude.

When Ying Chengyu saw that the villagers in Weizili, Baoshili and other pavilions would rather die than take away their grain and keep their fields, Ying Chengyu subconsciously felt helpless and angry that he hated them!
But soon, this anger turned into sadness and self-blame.

Ying Chengyu sighed softly: "Not enough! Far from enough!"

"I am so sad to see you!"

But in Ying Chengyu's view, the world should be like that!

Ying Chengyu did not pursue a war where he did not need to worry about food and grass and could kill without hesitation.

Your Majesty, you finally understand my suffering!

This is not Ying Chengyu's pursuit.

But Ying Chengyu knew.

Xu Min listened to Ying Chengyu's words, recalled what he had just seen in the main room, and then thought about his responsibilities, and asked thoughtfully: "Isn't Chang'an Lord thinking about something in the dung field?"

Qi Ai and Cao Mao were a little surprised, wondering how Xu Min could come to such a conclusion.

Noticing the increasingly puzzled looks from Qi Ai and Cao Mao, Xu Min explained: "Although the main house is stinky and filthy, it is not just filth."

"My officer noticed that there were several wooden barrels near the door containing soybean meal, weeds and pupa juice."

"These are all commonly used in manure fields."

"Besides, I am a land magistrate, so I don't have much power."

"The Lord of Chang'an specially summoned his ministers here, I think it's just for farming."

At the end of the sentence, Xu Min forced out a flattering and pleading smile towards Ying Chengyu.

Xu Min desperately hoped that his guess was correct.

Because he really doesn't want to be involved in the brutal court battle!

Ying Chengxuan gave Xu Min a positive response: "You are worthy of being the Jitian Order!"

"Creating a road and having a Chang'an plow can solve many problems."

"But the Changan plow is not of much benefit to the yield per mu."

"I really intend to delve into the dung field in order to increase the yield per mu and stimulate the agricultural development of Daqin!"

Han Cang suddenly realized: "It turns out that your Majesty did not suffer from brain disease due to endless foreign wars, but he had a dungeon in his heart!"

Ying Chengyu looked at Han Cang faintly: "I just chopped off the heads of hundreds of thousands of people."

"Does Han Shangqing think that my mind is so weak that I will be shaken by this?"

Han Cang quickly stood up and held his hands in his hands: "Your Majesty, this is a big mistake!"

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"It's just that I don't understand something." Han Cang asked in confusion: "Does the dung field need golden juice?" Ying Chengyu said matter-of-factly: "Of course it does!"

Ying Chengyu's tone was so natural, as if he was saying that people will die if they don't eat.

Han Cang frowned deeply, looked at Xu Min and asked, "Is it really necessary?"

Before spring plowing every year, the emperor and the kings of various countries need to lead the princes and ministers to work on the home fields several times to show the king's attention and guidance to farming. Only after the king personally plows the home fields will the world begin to cultivate on a large scale. .

Before the autumn harvest, the king would bring the princes and important officials to the fields to harvest.

But the kings, princes and ministers only plowed a few fields for show. Who will manage this piece of land next?

Ji Tian Ling!
A small piece of land looks ordinary, but it is the land cultivated by the king's "personal hands".

Even if the world's food production is reduced, as long as the production of this land is not reduced, the king will have reason to reprimand his ministers.

Even if the world's grain production is abundant, as long as the production of this field decreases, then...

Just wait and see the heads fall to the ground! ! !

In order to maintain the bond with the nine tribes, Ji Tian Ling is not only responsible for registering and managing the fields in the world, but he is also one of the people who knows how to farm the best in the world!

Han Cang will only believe the answer given by Xu Min.

Xu Min glanced at Ying Chengyu with a flinching look, and said with a smile: "As far as I know, today's dung fields are mostly made of silkworm excrement (silkworm excrement), pupa juice, bone juice, bean paste, river mud, miscellaneous Grass and vegetation are burned to ashes.”

"There are people in Qi, Han, and Chu who mix livestock waste with water and pour it into the soil to help farmers and mulberry trees."

"However, crops grown in dung fields in this way can easily cause the seedlings to die in the field. Even if the seedlings do not die in the field, they are easily infected by insect pests. Even if the grain can survive the insect pests, eating the harvested grain for a long time will cause the abdomen to be infested with dragonflies. (roundworms)."

“Only when the land’s yield has been reduced to the point where it is almost useless, will someone take this approach to manure farming.”

"That's why I have never implemented this strategy."

Xu Min spoke more carefully: "Chang'an Jun is attacking Chu and uniting Qi. I guess he had such an idea after hearing similar remarks?"

"In recent years, natural and man-made disasters have continued, and there will indeed be many more people using livestock to pollute water and manure fields."

Ying Chengyu looked at Xu Min with clear and puzzled eyes: "I have not heard similar words from Qi and Chu."

"But since it is a dung field, how can it have nothing to do with gold juice?"

Xu Min: "Ah (O_O)???"

For Ying Chengyu, excrement is excrement, and excrement is excrement. There is no difference between the two.

Easy-to-use and cheap farmyard fertilizer is made from feces and urine. This is a simple truth that you don’t need to have farmed in the countryside to know.

But this is not the case for Xu Min and all the people of the Qin Dynasty!
During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, excrement refers to something discarded with a dustpan held in both hands. Simply speaking, it means sweeping and discarding, and it can also be extended to mean unwanted things.

Because people all over the world often put unwanted herbs directly in the fields for fertilization, by the Qin Dynasty, the word "dung" evolved to have two meanings: pollution and fertilization, and its font also evolved to be almost the same as the traditional Chinese character "dung".

It was not until the Han Dynasty that small-scale attempts were made to use livestock manure mixed with water to fertilize fields, and manure began to be associated with feces and urine. However, during this period, the main force of fertilization was still various herbaceous plants.

It was not until the Wei and Jin Dynasties more than 800 years later that people on this land truly associated feces and fertilization on a large scale, and feces began to be confused with feces and urine. But even so, most of the feces and urine used for fertilization came from livestock.

It was not until the Song Dynasty more than 1,300 years later that people finally overcame the technical difficulties of using human feces and urine to fertilize fields.

The widespread use of human manure for fertilization did not come until the mid-Qing Dynasty, more than 1,900 years later!
How did Ying Chengxuan know that farmyard manure has been iteratively developed for nearly two thousand years?

Now that Ying Chengxuan and Xu Min are having a conversation spanning more than 1,900 years of technological changes, it would be strange if they don't look confused!

After Xu Min was stunned for several breaths, he asked in confusion and shock: "Why is the dung field related to gold juice?"

"Golden juice can indeed dung the fields, but it can also destroy the fields!"

"If golden juice enters the fields, the seedlings will die!"

Ying Chengyu said without hesitation: "This is because there are many impurities in the gold juice."

"These impurities will ferment when they accumulate together, and fermentation will generate heat, which will burn the seedlings to death."

"We will collect the golden juice and pile it up first, let it heat up, and then spread it into the fields. This will solve the problem of the golden juice burning and killing the seedlings!"

Xu Min was slightly startled.

Although he couldn't understand why Ying Chengyu was so obsessed with stuffing human feces and urine into the fields.

But don't say it.

You really don’t want to say that.

This method sounds reasonable!
Xu Min could only avoid this question and continue asking: "Even if the golden juice does not burn the seedlings to death, it will make the seedlings prone to insects."

“For farming, the harm outweighs the benefits!”

Ying Chengxiao thought about it and replied: "Golden juice will indeed breed more insect eggs. This is also the reason why people are more likely to get dragonfly from crops grown in fields where gold juice is excreted."

"But I believe that as long as the temperature during fermentation is high enough, pests such as insect eggs and grass seeds can be burned to death, and even become a source of fertility for the fields."

"Of course, this is certainly not enough to eradicate the infestation."

"If the fields are fertile, insects will grow on their own."

"How to control the pests still needs everyone to think about it!"
