Villager of Daming

Chapter 355 Learning is Rehearing the Enemy's Marks (Part [-])
The guards were very nervous when they found a poisonous snake. Why didn't they see it when they frightened the snake before?Hurry up and keep looking.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the snake, and said to the village chief next to him: "There are many poisonous insects on the mountain, has anyone been bitten?"

"There is a medicine bag with a pungent smell on its body, like a snake in front of it, it will not rush to attack, it is disgusted by the smell of realgar, unless it is very hungry, but then it should be looking for small animals to eat."

Li Chang pointed to the sachet on Zhu Yuanzhang's waist, which contained many kinds of medicines, but like the princess and the pregnant women in the village, they had to stay away and could not follow.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the sachet on his waist, then at the colorful rope on his wrist, and smiled: "We couldn't find the colorful thread when we were young! Now we have it. Do you know the meaning of the colorful thread?"

The head of the village also showed his wrist, also tied with colorful ropes: "Actually, there is only one purpose for tying colorful ropes for children, which is easy to find.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, you have to go to the mountains to collect dew and find mugwort, so you will drink realgar wine and wear sachets to drive away snakes and insects.

And the child was tied with colorful ropes early in the morning, because the child would run around when going out with him.

At this time, the colorful ropes on the arms, wrists, ankles, and necks are conspicuous, making it easier to find the child. "

"So that's it, yes, it's easy to find." Zhu Yuanzhang thought that the head of the village would say all kinds of auspicious meanings, but he got such an answer.

While the two were talking, the others began to work hard to harvest two kinds of wormwood without uprooting them.

Instead, the children pulled out a few roots, which will be hung at the door of the room. Those without roots are not good-looking.

"This root..." Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Chang.

"It is said that mugwort is the best during the Dragon Boat Festival. In fact, it can be harvested before. At least the villages in Xuancheng County will look for mugwort, Artemisia annua, and other herbs in the wild.

It is used to make moxa sticks and mosquito-repellent incense. Now that it is cut, it can be collected once a month later, and it will be collected again when the weather is cold.

It is grown in the village as medicinal materials, so naturally the roots cannot be pulled out.Although there are many wild herbs, we still have to prepare them ourselves.

Our local area is suitable for growing many kinds of medicinal materials, such as licorice, Bupleurum, Pinellia, Chuanxiong, Angelica, Chonglou and so on.

This saves manpower and is more convenient for management. His Majesty gave a large area to the village, and the village is guaranteed to grow a lot of herbs. "

The head of the village introduced the benefits of artificial planting of herbal medicines, which are large in quantity and easy to manage.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the surrounding mountains again: "Is the land good?"

"A large piece of land has good soil and many types of plants, which means that there are many herbs that can be used for planting.

Plant grass where grass should be planted, and trees where trees should be planted. If there are many people, insects can also be raised.

Grasses are herbal medicines, and trees are woody medicines, such as cloves, eucommia, cork, mulberry, etc.

Minerals, sulfur, realgar, cinnabar, gypsum.

Fungi, mushrooms, Ganoderma lucidum, white fungus, Poria cocos, etc.

Animals, bezoar, bear bile, musk, deer antler, etc.

Insects, scorpions, centipedes, cicadas, bees, etc.

There are also classification methods for seafood, the simplest one is vegetation, insects, stones and valleys. "

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang liked to listen to it, the head of the village popularized science, otherwise he would have learned in vain.

Zhu Yuanzhang really liked to listen. A group of people chatted while walking along the path. The head of the village introduced all the plants and animals here, including insects.

By the way, the ores of the year, especially those that can be used as fertilizers and medicines, will focus on the role of peat.

The village head grabbed a handful of soil: "Your Majesty, please see, the village sneaked here to pull soil before, and the peat can be used as coal for burning, but it's not worth it.

Its biggest function is to grow crops, and the village uses it to pave the newly opened bad land, so that the land becomes good farmland.

Then use it to grow seedlings, which is better than normal fertilizer, including air permeability and water permeability. "

"It's equivalent to a lot of good land with a lot of fertilizer? Ordinary people don't know! Send someone to ask and see where there are other places. If a large piece of land is directly used for planting things, it is better to take out some seedlings."

Zhu Yuanzhang understood this kind of soil, and felt that it was not cost-effective to plant crops directly on very thick soil.

"It should be like this, there are no insect eggs in these soils, and there are no crop-borne diseases.

When you press hard, it becomes a lump, and when you shake it, it becomes loose again.It is very convenient to press and pack it into a bag for transportation from other places.

The [-] mu of wheat fields in the village are taken from this side, and there is no sign of any reduction after the extraction.Of course, we didn't dig in one place. "

The Lichang threw away the dirt on his hands and went to the stream in front to wash his hands.

The scripture chief said that everyone around knows that this soil is a treasure, and its greatest use is to turn barren land into fertile land.

If others know, my family is a low-grade field, and I come here to transport peat, and I go back to the top-grade field, and the yield per mu is too different.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were hot. He observed that there were indeed a lot of them, so he said: "The palace also planted land, choose the soil for the field, um..."

"Your Majesty can bring a few boats of peat with you when you return to the palace, and put them in the shed outside Donghua Gate, so that you can eat better vegetables in winter."

The head of the village understands that he has to give it away when he is brought into the palace. To put it bluntly, the whole country belongs to him.

"Okay! Oh! If a person is knowledgeable, he is better than others in farming.

Many common people know how to use farm manure when they are farming, but it is a pity that there is not much fertilizer.

Throughout the year, watching the sky to eat, catching up with the food and vegetables planted, there will be disease and insect disasters, there is nothing to do but cry.

The prescriptions given by Xiaqiu Village, as well as the method of making test paper for soil acid and alkali, as long as the people learn it, at least they don't have to cry helplessly.

We can also fight against God when we eat according to the sky. If the food is sick, we will treat the disease in the food, and if the food is infested with insects, we will kill the insects. "

Zhu Yuanzhang talked about pesticides and fertilizers, not to mention that Ningguo Mansion, Taiping Mansion, and Yingtian Mansion are now being instructed by the government to cultivate the land.

The people in the yamen took the booklets and test strips and went to the fields to look at them. When they saw something wrong with the crops, they immediately told them how to make adjustments, and then helped to deliver things.

However, the 21 villages in Xuancheng County do not need officials to manage them. They learn directly from Xiaqiu Village, and then they know where there are mines, and they lead their hands to mine.

Usually, lime water and plant ash are prepared at all times, waiting to be soaked in water to treat crop diseases.

……

After all the Artemisia seeds were collected, the people in the team found a lot of herbs under the guidance of the children, and the team returned.

"The wooden bridge, why not replace it with a stone bridge, and find out the person?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked the person who came to the car and followed the trot.

"Your Majesty, no one went out yesterday, nor did they go out this morning.

But there are fishermen in the west, and they say they have seen a group of people who don't look like locals coming here.

I came here early the morning before yesterday, and even asked the fishermen for directions and Xiaqiu Village, but I never saw them again. "

Follow the runners to report the situation.

"Understood, let's investigate again!" After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the wooden bridge was in front of him, and there were guards around it.

No one noticed that the bridge was shaking badly before, so I guess this bridge is just like that.

Only the people in Xiaqiu Village are familiar with the situation here, and the bridge was also repaired by them later, and the original wood was built.
