Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 211

When Li Shimin came to Linjiazhuang, he looked at the battle lightly and simply, but he was not sincere. It seemed that the recent battle with the family had not developed to the point of being out of control, so he was able to come out so casually.

Of course, it could also be Zhongnan Mountain, especially the Lin Family Village, which is more reassuring. If there is a real discrepancy, he took some guards and hid in Lin Sen's earthen building, and he was able to hold on for a while.

Moreover, no matter whether it is the Lin family's Zhuangzi or the Zhuangzi of several confidant generals around, there is no shortage of masters. Unless there is a change in the army in Chang'an City, otherwise the enemy really can't make any waves.

In addition, Li Shimin has always been a confident person, that's why he is so bold.

And he came at the right time, the harvesting was in full swing on the Lin Family Village, it was really a busy scene.The golden-yellow wheat is cut off one by one by the beaming farmers, and they are bundled with grass at will, and the bundles are made into a stack.

And Li Shimin didn't bother everyone when he came, he just found a field that hadn't been harvested, pulled down a few ears of wheat, and studied it carefully there.

The ears of wheat on Linjiazhuangzi are obviously much larger than the ones he has seen on weekdays, and the wheat grains are also much fuller. It goes without saying that the yield per mu is naturally much higher than that of ordinary fields. few.It's just that Li Shimin doesn't have a clear idea of ​​how much more can be added.

But after changing several sites and seeing that the ears of wheat are almost so heavy, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

Zhang Anan also congratulated repeatedly, making the field look like the emperor's own.

At this time, Lin Sen, who had received a report from the farmer, had just rushed over from the earth building. Although it is often said that the king is not joking, he did not expect that Li Shimin would really come to this corner of the mountain again, just to see The scene of a bumper harvest of grain at home.

Ordinarily at this time, shouldn't he run to his specially fine royal reserved field that has been carefully cared for by the farmer, to perform a gesture of sharing the joy with the people?

"Do you know how much the yield per mu of this wheat is, maybe more than one stone?" Li Shimin asked, suppressing his excitement, but he couldn't hide the joy and eagerness in his words. .

But this was in front of Lin Sen. He believed that this kid was sincere, so naturally he didn't mind showing some of his true temperament.

"Boy, I don't know. After they have harvested, it will be more accurate to calculate the average yield per mu. After all, the land conditions are different, and the level of crop care of each family is also different.

However, I think it is not impossible to increase by [-]%, or even double. I am very confident in this new wheat variety I have cultivated. "

Once again, Lin Sen took the credit for himself without hesitation, and Li Shimin was a little excited when he heard the output.

"Of course, thanks to His Majesty's concern, they can grow so well."

Lin Sen's turning point is too blunt, and the flattery is also insincere, but Li Shimin is still very satisfied with his smile, the main reason is that the face of these wheats is relatively big, whoever makes him look at it makes him feel good, even with Lin Sen. Flatterers with unsophisticated hands have become cute.

"Your Majesty, let's go to the Tulou first with the boy. I don't know how much production will be produced in a short while. The farmers are still busy, aren't they?"

Lin Sen hurriedly gave way to the emperor at home, and letting Li Shimin hang out outside like this is against the way of hospitality, and if something good or bad comes out, he won't be able to handle it with his head.

It seems that the matter with Cheng Huaiyu has finally come to an end, but he can't go wrong at this time, if Cheng Huaiyu becomes a widow, he will feel very sorry, although he probably won't be able to think about it at that time.

"No, I'll just watch here and let these sergeants measure out an acre of land, and you can call some farmers to come over and harvest it together. I want to know how much the mu yield is as soon as possible." Li Shimin didn't have that patience. , simply let people get it out now.

"Okay, boy, just call someone over." Lin Sen naturally didn't hesitate, he shocked Li Shimin face to face, and he was even more confident to take advantage of it later.

The personal guards brought by Li Shimin meticulously measured out an entire mu of land, and then carefully watched a large group of farmers come to harvest, and then all of them were brought to the threshing ground on the farm, and the harvesting began on the spot. Beat, threshing.

Then carefully collected all the wheat grains, sifted out the sundries and dust, and the guards stepped forward to weigh them in person, and according to Li Shimin's request, carefully weighed them several times before finally determining the yield.

"Is it really three stones and five fights? Is there a miscalculation?" Li Shimin almost doubted his ears. Although he had been confirmed many times to get this data, he was still a little suspicious that it was in a dream. Suddenly.

Want to know how much was the yield per mu of general land in the early Tang Dynasty?On average it's one stone!Of course, this output is a combination of several major grain products such as millet, wheat, and rice. Places with better land conditions may have a slightly higher output than this, but the good is still limited.

As for wheat, because planting wheat in the early Tang Dynasty was not very common even in the north. Millet, or millet, was the mainstream at this time, but the yield of wheat must not be so high. Basically, it looks like a stone.

One stone in the Tang Dynasty was equivalent to about one hundred and six catties in the later generations, and the one mu of land at this time was smaller than the one mu of the later generations. Considering that when the later generations were just liberated, the yield per mu seemed to be about It looks like a hundred catties, mainly because there is no blessing of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and there are not as many good varieties as later generations, so it is not surprising that the output is not much different from that of Datang.

And what Lin Sen took out could be said to be the seeds of super wheat. Even without the protection of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, wouldn't there be compost and earthworms to help? To achieve the yield of less than [-] catties per mu, in his opinion It's not so surprising.

But in the eyes of Li Shimin, this is not a feeling at all, okay? He took a step forward and gave Li Shimin a hand, fearing that he might have to pass over.

"Okay, okay, okay, hahaha..." He pinched himself secretly, after confirming that it was real or not a dream, Li Shimin's smile could no longer be concealed, and he was as happy as a child weighing more than 200 kilograms.

As for why you said that the wheat is weighed directly instead of being ground into white flour and then counted as the yield per mu?That's really overthinking. In the early days, people ate whole grains of wheat together, just like eating rice. Later, there were stone mills and the like, and they were ground into powder to make steamed buns, noodles and so on.

As for peeling, that is, removing the bran, it does not exist at all.This is not millet, it is millet, and it needs to be shelled. How can it be so extravagant to not eat whole wheat flour? Even the emperor does not have this kind of treatment.The so-called fine flour that the emperor ate was not the white flour of later generations, but glutinous rice flour.

Therefore, the weight of the sown wheat grains can be regarded as the entire mu yield, which is why Li Shimin went crazy with joy.

The yield per mu almost doubled, and it increased by two and a half times. He didn't really go crazy. It can be said that he has a big heart.Didn't see the gang of Lin family farmers who knew the result, are they too happy to see it?Except for the absence of Guoben, there were all kinds of embarrassing appearances, which made Lin Sen really dumbfounded.

　Recently, it seems that the suffering has been a bit ruthless. Not to mention the heart alarm, the brain is also groggy, the waist is starting to hurt, the corners of the mouth are full of blisters, and coughing, no matter how busy this is, it will explode , either a cold or a fever or lumbar muscle strain, in short, I have to lie at home for a few days.Originally a strong body, under the continuous overtime work and staying up late at the unit, it is almost the same. You must know that I only caught a cold once in three or four years before, but now I can’t catch it three or four times a year. ε= (ο｀*))) Alas.Seek comfort! ╮(╯﹏╰)╭
