Chapter 682 Experimental Field

"What?"

In the eastern suburbs of Yingtian City, at dusk, he stood up from the field and looked at the eunuch who came to announce the orders, and asked: "Let me go to the Governor's Office of the Five Army to receive thirty rods? Hand over the talisman seal commanded by the Central Army of Shenji Camp?"

What happened again?

He patted the soil on his hand and said to the little eunuch: "Please go back and tell your Majesty that I will go to the Governor's Office of the Five Army in the afternoon to find Duke Li Jinglong to take these thirty rods, and the talisman seal will also be handed over to the Governor's Office of the Five Army."

He smiled again and said, "I am busy with farming and it is inconvenient to get out of here. Please forgive me for your father-in-law. If you have the opportunity, please ask me to drink."

The eunuch was a direct descendant of Gou'er. He knew that Twilight was not a stingy person, so he didn't mind it.

Not every time you leave the palace and announce the imperial edict, you can get it.

I'm smiling and you're busy, so I'll go and reply now.

After watching the eunuch leave at dusk, he turned around and looked at the middle-aged man who was holding a hoe in the ditches of the land and ridges, smiling and said, "There will be a hard work in the next few days."

The middle-aged man hesitated, "Things are small things, but you, Master..."

The middle-aged man's surname is Liang and Liang Da.

Liang Da studied in a private school for several years. Although he was a single-handed student for three generations, his family was not good. He urinated and worked as a long-term worker for the landlord. Because he was smart and fond of studying, he was very popular with the landlords. So he saved more or less money. When he was eighteen years old, he rented a few fertile land and ate and slept in the fields. The next year, he had a good harvest and made a small profit.

He worked hard in the fields for a few years, saved some money, married a girl next door, and lived a small wealthy life. His biggest wish in his life was to have a piece of his own field.

Unfortunately, this goal is basically impossible to achieve.

But Liang Da was tired.

In recent years, he rented crops from landlords. If he encountered a bad climate, he would just reduce his yield if he had no harvest in others. He would generally have a good harvest.

Therefore, he became the most famous farmer near Gyeonggi.

Of course, this "famous" is ironic.

It is just famous in the countryside.

The benefits brought to Liang Da are nothing more than that the landlord is willing to rent the land to him. No matter what, Liang Da can basically produce a good harvest, and the landlords can collect rents.

So dusk found him.

Chili peppers, sweet potatoes, and corn were planted in the Ming Dynasty for the first time, and at dusk, they were in a state of slight understanding of farming. In order to ensure that there will be no accidents during planting, experienced old farmers must take the lead.

Liang Da is the most suitable candidate.

After reading books, he has strong learning ability, can quickly adapt to new things, and has rich experience. According to Liang Da's resume, he is basically considered an agricultural technician.

The progress of agriculture requires such talents, so at dusk, Shen Xili bought a few acres of land next to Jingji, then found Liang Da, and gave him an undeniable price to help manage the land.

Seeing Liang Da think he was about to fall, he smiled and said, "It's okay, you'll be slapping on the bed for about a few days. The command of the Shenji Camp Central Army that you handed over is also your Majesty's follow-up. This time I will not go to the Mobei. The Shenji Camp Central Army needs a real commander. You can rest assured to help me take care of this field."

He also said: "You probably don't understand these court affairs. You just need to know that once Your Majesty goes to the north, I, the servant, will work in the cabinet and will still be a minister in the court."

To conquer the north, the two brothers Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui must go.

Zhu Gaochi is in charge of Yingtian.

Zhu Di would not be absolutely relieved, so he would let himself go to the cabinet with the prince, who had drawn a clear line. However, this was a wishful conclusion of the dusk. It was very likely that Zhu Di would try to get the dusk to Yingtian.

After all, in Zhu Di's eyes, Dusk is an expert in the matter of Shenji Camp.

The reason why I said this is to make Liang Da feel at ease.

Liang Da was indeed confused when he heard it, but his boss said it was fine, and he, a farmer, had no choice but to believe it, waved his hand to signal the group of long-term workers behind him to continue to sort out the ridges.

I looked at the sky at dusk and it was almost noon.

Not far away, a craftsman led a group of people to come from the city, and began to build fences with bamboo around these acres of land, and strictly protected the field according to the meaning of dusk.

At dusk, he sat on the edge of the field and patted his side, "Old Liang, take a break."

Farmland affairs, hurry up.

But it's also unhurried.

Liang Da looked at the peaceful and close but generous young official, thought about it, but no longer saw him. He put down his hoe and sat down next to the dusk, and asked in confusion: "Boss, I'm a little curious. I heard that you are the shopkeeper of the Times Business Company and the master of the official. He is definitely not short of money. Not to mention this, you are still a scholar who is far away from the kitchen and does not touch the spring water. Why do you have to build such a strange field in the eastern suburbs so much?"

Liang Da is indeed puzzled.

After living for so many years, I saw a person with a status as wealthy and status in the evening, I would come to work in the fields in person.

Huang Tun smiled, "This experimental field is very important. Actually, I can say that everything I have done before is not as important as this experimental field. As for why it is important, when the crops grow up and mature, you will understand. Let me keep it a secret now."

Liang Da dared not ask.

Just kidding, he is a white dick, and the young man around him seems to have only been in his prime for one or two years, but his status is there. Nowadays, the people in the capital, who doesn’t know about the Times Business?

He smiled and said, "Is it necessary to plant a money tree?"

Sunset also smiled, "Actually it's really a money tree, but this money is shaken into the pockets of ordinary people, not into my pockets. Of course, I will also be a beneficiary in the end."

He curled his smile, "It's getting late, what time will I say, Lao Liang, you must remember it."

Lao Liang immediately said, "You said, boss."

At dusk, he pondered for a while, organized his language and said slowly: "This experimental field is one of the best fields near Jingji. It is next to it, and it is much higher than the river. It will not be short of water, but it will not be flooded. To put it bluntly, the original owner of this land was unwilling to sell it to me. For this reason, I asked Yingtian Prefect Xiang Bao to come forward, and the risk of being impeached and forcibly robbed fertile land. If you use such extraordinary means, Lao Liang, you should know the importance of it in my heart."

Liang laughed.

I complained in my heart that you are not called robbery, it is nothing more than owing some favors. You officials buy land from the landlords, and no matter how reluctant the landlords are, they have to give face, let alone even the prefect has come forward.

The landlord who was forced to sell the land would not be stupid because these acres of land had a stumble with you.

The dusk continued: "The reason why it is said to be an experimental field is that the thing that requires seeds in this field has not appeared in the Ming Dynasty as a crop. It is the first time planting, so basically we have to cross the river by feeling the stones, but we don't have many seeds on hand and can't bear too much failure. Therefore, you must remember the things I will pay attention to next."

Liang Da immediately became serious.

Dusk also said solemnly: "This season we planted is called peppercorns. I will use ordinary seed reserves, so if you can, it is best to succeed in one go. I will wait for the peppercorns for a day or two and will be escorted by people. After you get it, you should cherish and care like your fat boy. Before sowing, you need to soak it in potion. You know what this is?"

Liang Da nodded, "I know this, and I know what kind of potion to use."

Nodded at dusk, "After soaking, you should use warm soup to soak the seedlings to prevent the seedlings from getting sick. You should also understand this, because I have heard that you have these two processes for planting over the years."

Liang Da listened carefully and nodded, "Your boss, please continue."

Twilight then continued: "Wrap the soaked pepper seeds in a wet cloth, place them in a warm place to control the temperature and lack teeth, and turn them every six hours to ensure that they can be heated evenly, which is conducive to the development of seedlings. After these preparations are done, you can sow the seedlings and wait for a period of time to germinate, so as to avoid overcrowding, and at the same time, remove the weak seedlings with diseased and deformed, and finally, they will grow to four to five real leaves for planting and deformed seedlings."

He paused, "Do you know these operations?"

Lao Liang finally breathed a sigh and said with a smile: "I thought it was so complicated. Isn't it the same as my previous planting method? I know this in my mind. Don't worry, as long as there is no problem with the seeds, I promise to let them thrive!"

This matter is not possible in the entire Jingji, Lao Liang, and there is no one else to do it.

I can't do anything in my life, so I'm good at this.

Happy at dusk.

Sure enough, I have specialized in my profession, and I have to say that the reason why Lao Liang can have a bumper harvest every year is indeed because he has a better planting method - the method he said is not popular at the moment in the Ming Dynasty.

Lao Liang said again: "Actually, you have missed a lot of things that need to be thought about. During the planting period, you should also think about the dry and humidity of the mud at the roots of the crops, as well as the temperature changes, find ways to find the most favorite temperature of these crops, etc...."

Shocked at dusk.

Laughed immediately.

I feel relieved that you, Lao Liang, have you, can you?
