Once the thought was revealed, Zhang Yue became more efficient in doing things. He quickly read all the profiles of all the people on the list, then closed the door, closed his eyes, and entered the space.

Since taking office as Xinfeng, the frequency of the space Zhang Yue entered has slowed down.

Usually, I will take time to come in every two or three days.

Recently, because of the assassination, the public examination, and the arrival of the emperor, he came in once every four or five days.

However, although he was not so diligent in entering the space.

But the various crops in the space grow very happily.

Especially the newly planted wheat last time, although they did not use jade fruit to ripen, it seems that in space, their growth rate is much faster than that of the outside world.

Nowadays, these three generations of wheat seedlings have basically grown to about one foot tall, and their leaves and stems are very healthy. Obviously, their parents' genes have been well inherited.

Zhang Yue observed in the wheat field for a while and nodded slightly: "Now, it only takes a few more days to use jade fruit to ripen, continue to enhance the rhizomes of wheat seeds, and strengthen their drought and flood resistance!"

Zhang Yue has accumulated more than a hundred jade fruits for this and is waiting to strengthen the wheat again.

Crossing the wheat fields and on the other side of the stream, seven or eight small cotton trees grew quietly here.

They were gifts from Guo Rang to Zhang Yue, and they were transplanted into the space ten days ago.

Zhang Yue squatted down, looked at the cotton, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

These cottons should have been sold to the Western Regions by the countries of the Indian subcontinent or the Kushan dynasty. The Marquis of Bowang, Zhang Qian, duke of Bowang, digged the Western Regions and introduced them to China.

However, they have always existed as ornamental plants.

It is mainly because of their small number, and the Han Dynasty has no scientific and technological trees in cotton textiles at all.

But...now...

Zhang Yue picked up a jade fruit and buried it under the soil of these cottons.

In an instant, the seven or eight cotton trees grew wildly, and in a moment, they grew to about one meter high. At the same time, three three-dimensional cotton images appeared in front of Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue had already prepared, carefully examined the three images, and then chose one of the larger ones without hesitation.

When he finished his choice, the cotton plants in front of him began to bear fruit.

Finally, the ones that appeared in front of him were about ten white cotton fruits about two or three centimeters in size.

Zhang Yue picked one, opened it gently, revealing the lint inside, then pulled out one and looked at it in his hand.

"Too short..." Zhang Yue was not surprised. Compared with American cotton, the biggest disadvantage of Asian cotton is that the lint is short and the textile value is too low.

So he was almost completely eliminated in later generations.

However, in today's social environment, Asian cotton is actually more advantageous than American cotton.

Why?

Because of the low requirements and strong resistance to pests and diseases!

Judging from Zhang Yue’s data back, Asian cotton is actually the ancestor of American cotton.

In a biological sense, Asian cotton is actually more advantageous than American cotton.

However, although American cotton has many disadvantages, their cotton wool is long and its textile performance is perfect for Asian cotton.

Therefore, in the end, various varieties of American cotton dominated the earth's cotton textile industry.

And with the prosperity of the textile industry, it spread all over the world and occupied all land.

Asian cotton, which has stronger survivability and less demand, has been almost eliminated from the field of cash crops and has become a research object for botanists.

Therefore, after obtaining these cottons, Zhang Yue had decided to cultivate a cotton wool-long cotton variety as much as possible while retaining their advantages.

The truth is very simple.

It is now BC, and there is no developed agriculture as in later generations.

More importantly, the current handicraft industry actually has much lower requirements on the length of cotton lint than in later generations.

After picking all the cotton fruits and cleaning the site, Zhang Yue began to peel off the cotton seeds.

This work is time-consuming.

It took him about ten minutes to peel off the cotton seeds, and there were almost a hundred pieces.

But Zhang Yue didn't want to plant it all - it was a waste of time!

He picked out these cotton seeds, selected more than twenty cotton seeds that were obviously bigger than their brothers, and then sowed them to the spot.

Soon, the space reacted, and a trickle floated over, nourishing the seeds that had just been planted.

Zhang Yue pinched the cotton seeds in his hand, thought about it, and decided to transplant them into the outside world.

A test field was established in the Waihuiqu ranch in the county town.

This can also lay the foundation for the future promotion of cotton.

After finishing this matter, Zhang Yue continued to move forward.

Not far from the cotton field, dozens of alfalfa plants that have just grown new sprouts come into view.

Zhang Yue observed the growth of these alfalfas and did not intend to use jade fruits to ripen and cultivate them now.

He planned to take a look again because the use of jade fruit is now tense.

Continue to move forward and walk to the foot of the hill.

Since being assassinated, Zhang Yue has terminated the activity of using the book to obtain jade fruits.

Because, the books he had reserved had basically been fed.

Even the books and scripts left by Zhang Anshi in Jianzhang Palace were used up.

By crazily feeding Jinyu wood and ripening it with jade fruits again, Zhang Yue saved more than 100 jade fruits of varying sizes in the past month.

It looks like a lot.

But in fact, Zhang Yue felt that it was probably not enough to cultivate wheat fields this time.

There is no way, the current wheat cultivation area in the space has almost reached more than ten acres!

The total number is probably as many as 40,000 to 50,000!

Judging from past experience, these more than 100 jade fruits are probably not enough!

Therefore, Zhang Yue had to look for a new source of 'fertilizer'.

Looking at the Jin Yumu who have now completely shrank into a newborn state, Zhang Yue was also a little anxious.

Without the book, Jin Yumu and others would go hungry, and more importantly, there was no jade fruit production!

"Maybe it's time to go to the Imperial Academy to do another round..." Zhang Yue thought with his head down.

Just in what name?

It can't be done too explicitly!

Zhang Yue is not afraid of being seen through his purpose of his desire for calligraphy, but he runs to Taixue nakedly and asks others to interpret books on weekdays, which may also have problems.

After all, I have played it once before.

I repeatedly asked for other people's book scripts, but I didn't give me any explanation.

It is hard to protect people with ulterior motives and suspicion.

This matter made Zhang Yue very confused.

"Perhaps, we should test the reactions of Gong Yu, Wang Ji and others to see if the Taixue welcomes me to visit?" Zhang Yue thought for a while, and then he could only put this matter aside.

Then, he picked up the last two volumes of book and a jade fruit placed in the space and walked to a Jinyu tree.
Chapter completed!
