Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 591
Regarding Changsun Wuji's going to visit Sun Xiangfu, Changsun Chun has reservations. In his opinion, Sun Xiangfu is already a person who is rejected by the emperor. Changsun Wuji and Sun Xiangfu have too close contacts, which will only make the emperor associate with him. Disgusted along with it.

So, he said, "Now is an extraordinary time, Sun Zhengming is hated by His Majesty, you still..."

"Hehehe, who told you that His Majesty hates Zhengming? If His Majesty is the kind of narrow-minded person, can we have the situation in Tang Dynasty today? Whether His Majesty's proposition or Zhengming's proposition, their starting point is the same. For the good of our Tang Dynasty, it's just that they temporarily disagree on the priority of doing things, and there is no unified opinion.

If I really want to say that Your Majesty has a sense of Zhengming, I think it should be 'admiration'.

With the wisdom of righteousness, it is impossible for him not to know the consequences of resisting the decree and killing Wang Hao. However, the official and noble, with an annual income of tens of millions of dollars, he gave up as soon as he said he would give up. Bear such a big loss? "

Changsun Wuji is the closest minister to Li Shimin. He said that Li Shimin is "admired", so he must be in admiration. Changsun Chun has nothing to be dissatisfied with, but he still thought of some problems he saw after he arrived in Jingzhou, and continued. , "Then, how to appease the grievances of the people in the surrounding counties and stabilize the place, you have to ask him carefully."

Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "Naturally, let's talk about it after I have met the chief officials of the states and assigned the follow-up construction tasks!"

After looking at all the more than 100 stalls, Changsun Wuji suddenly had a bottom line in his mind. His level of intelligence is not comparable to that of a young man like Changsun Chun. He has already had some insights into business development. He thinks , these food stalls, like Chang'an's commercial plaza, can be copied and promoted in other places. As long as I guide the people to learn from Jiuyuan County, the entire Tang Dynasty can create at least a dozen people as wealthy as Jiuyuan County. County out.

After all, the entire Dongting Lake area has been surveyed by Sun Xiangfu, and the land with a radius of 500 miles can be included in the scope of the field construction. With a large lake of more than [-] square kilometers as the center, it will expand to [-] miles around , how big is this place?

At least it is larger than fifty Jiuyuan counties. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, when the construction of the embankments here was at its peak, there were more than 500 embankments and Jiuyuan counties, but nine of them were not the largest.

Thinking of this, he has a greater certainty about this trip to Jingzhou. He went to the government office to arrange various tasks, so he didn't mention it.

In Jiuyuan County, Sun Xiangfu was finally able to teach the common people some knowledge in the spacious classroom. After winter, although a large number of people were sent out to work due to the spread of industries in various towns, those who came to listen to the lecture There are only a lot of people, except for the people in this county, there are people from neighboring counties, even Jiangling, Jiangxia and other prefectures, who come to listen to Sun Xiangfu's lectures. Minxue never refuses these people who come from the surrounding areas. , You want you to follow the order and just listen to the lecture with peace of mind.

"Today I'm going to talk to you about planting, harvesting, and cooking red cabbage moss. Everyone knows that red cabbage moss is one of the main vegetables that can be served on the table in Jingzhou in winter. This kind of vegetable is not afraid of frost. Fengxue, even in the imperial palace, it is the main tribute vegetable in winter.

However, as the origin of the red cabbage tundra, the vegetables we produce are not enough for the people of the whole country to eat. Not flourishing, harvesting methods are not appropriate, so that high-yielding crops that can be harvested in multiple rounds die after one or two rounds of harvesting. "

Unofficial history records that the famous red cabbage moss is also related to that foodie Yu Chigong, and the famous phrase "pagoda town river demon" in later generations is also based on this allusion.

However, that is all unofficial history, and it cannot be taken as true. What Sun Xiangfu saw was a different scene. Since the entire stems and leaves of red cabbage moss can be eaten, most people are unwilling to waste them when harvesting. , the cutting was too severe, which led to the growth of the main rhizome in the back, which required a lot of fertility and water. After two rounds of such deep cutting, a seedling basically died.

When Sun Xiangfu came back from Dingxiang, it was September, the season for planting red cabbage moss. The vegetable fields on the [-]st, [-]nd, and [-]rd embankments were all planted in the way he corrected, that is, before planting, the vegetable fields should be planted in the same way. Thoroughly kill the bugs in the soil, even if more quicklime is used, it must be disinfected.

Then, make a seedbed to raise seedlings. At the beginning of October, use quicklime to fix the field soil, apply a sufficient amount of organic fertilizer, and then transplant it. Moreover, the follow-up fertilizer is directly used with manure water. This thing is very fattening and not used at all. I am worried that the roots and seedlings will be burned.

Now, the red cabbage moss grows very luxuriantly on all the embankments, and the stems and leaves are like exploded branches. There are big trees. Sun Xiangfu dug a few big trees to give a lecture today as an example. The people in other courtyards were fascinated by it.

"As you can see, this is the red cabbage moss seedlings grown in the vegetable fields of our No. [-], No. [-], and No. [-] courtyards. It is big enough! It is about three times larger than the previous seedlings, and as long as Everyone harvests according to the harvesting method I taught, and after each round of harvesting, topdress with manure water, then it will be able to harvest until next year, and the yield will be at least ten times the original."

The common people don't understand the concept of ten times. They only know that if such vegetable moss is grown in their own land and can be harvested continuously, then this vegetable seedling is like a cash cow.

Because, after October, snow began to fall in the north, and the price of green leafy vegetables soared. On the pier, vendors who came to collect vegetable moss bought them at a price of more than two cents per catty. Anyway, in winter, green vegetables were shipped all the way to the north. I'm not afraid of bad things. When I arrive in densely populated cities such as Chang'an and Weinan, the price of this vegetable is not only two or three Wen a catty, but at least five Wen a catty. There are people who want a catty of money.

Therefore, when Sun Xiangfu said this, everyone was excited.

I saw that Sun Xiangfu picked up a pair of scissors, just like pruning the branches of flower trees, specially cutting off the stems and leaves with small flower buds, not cutting off all the roots, but cutting off a large part, leaving a pile there, and then, He pointed to the stump he had cut out and said, "Did you see that about [-]% of the main stem is left on top of the seedlings and cut off under the big leaves. As soon as the harvest is over, topdress the fertilizer immediately, and cut it off quickly." At the same position, two or three twigs will grow, and gradually grow to be as thick as the main stem and leaves before, and these are the ones I cut off before."

After Sun Xiangfu finished harvesting an uncut seedling, he pointed to a seedling that had already been harvested once and said, "If we harvest in this way, the vegetable moss we harvest will be the freshest and tenderest in the upper section. It tastes good, and it can make this plant grow into a seedling and continue to grow densely. It will not die after two rounds of harvesting like in the past. As long as it is top-dressed in time, it will be no problem to harvest more than ten rounds a year. , This year, the 200 mu of red cabbage moss planted in No. 800, 600, and [-] courtyards has only been harvested for about a month. Excluding the ones eaten by the family, they have also sold more than [-] million catties to outsiders. If the harvest continues until next year, then, at least If you can sell more than [-] million jin, that’s [-] million yuan, [-] guan.”

The [-] mu of vegetable land, in addition to being used by the family, can also create a profit of more than [-]% per mu. This is a high-yielding cash crop compared with the cantaloupe and cotton planted in Chang'an a few years ago.

Moreover, Sun Xiangfu is talking about conservative data. For green vegetables, if you calculate the output by weight, it is really difficult to calculate. For an acre of red cabbage moss, you have to pinch the grown cabbage moss every day for a few months. Come down, not to mention like the later generation’s ten thousand catties, at least five or six thousand catties are available, because more than 3000 red cabbage moss can be planted in one mu of land, and even if only one plant is cut every day, more than 3000 trees, that is more than 3000 , weighing at least several tens of catties, after one month, it will be one or two thousand catties, and after four months, it will be at least five or six thousand catties, and three thousand acres, that is an output of tens of millions of catties, Sun Xiangfu directly Almost half of it was said.

You know, there are vegetable farmers in later generations who can produce nearly [-] catties of cabbage hearts per acre of red cabbage moss in one winter. This thing can grow with fertilizer and water, and it is the best vegetable to serve.

After counting the number with everyone, Sun Xiangfu directly heard the heavy breathing of over a thousand people in the classroom, because everyone saw three or four small stems and leaves growing on the main stem that Sun Xiangfu had harvested before. , it looks like it won't be long before it can grow again. If it lasts this long for a whole winter, how much will it cost?And if my family grows a few acres, is it worth it?
Seeing everyone's expressions, Sun Xiangfu laughed and said, "Now, everyone knows the importance of agricultural technology! It can amplify your output and allow you to earn higher profits, so ah! You should study hard, Do your best to teach these technologies to those who don't know, so that everyone can become rich.

The red cabbage moss that has been planted this year, as long as it is harvested according to the method I taught and top-dressed in time, the yield will increase several times. Everyone must publicize it to those who did not come to attend the lecture.

Alright, that’s all for today’s planting class. Next is the cooking class. Later, I invited my beautiful wife to give you a dance class. I’m not showing off my wife’s beauty, it’s because it’s winter , everyone needs to exercise more in order to be healthier, but you can’t eat a full meal and grow flesh in the bed, too fat but easy to get sick..."

The atmosphere of the teachers of folk studies is so relaxed and enthusiastic every day. Many people have already regarded coming here to attend lectures as a big thing that must be done every day, because every day they can make that kind of progress like an epiphany, and, They will also spread the knowledge they have heard, as Sun Xiangfu said, so that Jiuyuan County, in the entire Shannan Road area, will shine like a luminous body, shining on the growth of everyone.

Of course, this luminous body will also attract many foreign visitors. Wang Xu is a big guest from Jiuyuan County today. He not only came by himself, but also brought representatives of nearly a hundred families. When he came out of the Minxue classroom, he had already opened the curtain of the carriage, and respectfully invited Sun Xiangfu to get on the carriage.

"Brother Zhengming seems to like the current state very much!"

"So, you'd rather blow the cold wind outside than go in and disturb me, right?" Sun Xiangfu said without being pretentious, stepped into Wang Xu's car, turned his head and said to Yu Xiu'er, "Go back first I'm going to eat at a big family tonight, it's not good to drag my family with me."

Wang Xu smiled when he heard the words, and after giving a salute to Yu Xiuer, he boarded the carriage and set off. The carriage went straight to the only restaurant in the county that could entertain hundreds of wealthy customers. Of course, this is also the property of the Jiuyuan Chamber of Commerce. Jiuyuan Restaurant.

"Brother Zhengming doesn't seem to be surprised by my arrival at all."

"Mr. Zhao walked slowly along the Yangtze River, and he has already arrived in Jiangling. You guys, I think you should have come here a long time ago."

"It seems that brother Zhengming doesn't care about major affairs in the world at all!" Wang Xu said with joy when he heard this.

"No, I don't intend to take care of any major affairs in the world. With my current status, I can't take care of anything. It just so happens that the peddlers in our Jiuyuan County saw them at Jiangling Wharf."

Wang Xu shook his head and said with a smile, "Brother Zhengming, this is not like your style. The people in this world have not yet become rich! How can you live in a small county with peace of mind?"

"Why, did you come to me today to talk about making the people of the world rich?" Sun Xiangfu looked at Wang Xu in surprise. Going forward, in the words, there is actually a little bit of confidence in it.

Wang Xu nodded and said, "That's natural. When it comes to the way to grow hair, in this world, you, Brother Zhengming, are the only one who can let me, Wang Xu, come to ask for advice in person."

Sun Xiangfu rolled his eyes at Wang Xu's arrogance, and then asked, "Then what happened to those people behind?"

"They are just followers, and even I am just a follower. Only you, Brother Zhengming, can really guide the world."

Hearing Wang Xu's politeness, Sun Xiangfu waved his hands and said, "Don't praise me like that, I'm just a grassroots in Jiuyuan County, it's only reasonable to sell our Jiuyuan County's special products to you big families."

The county seat is not big, and it is only a mile or two from the civil studies classroom to the Jiuyuan restaurant. While talking, he has already arrived at the place. Sun Xiangfu got up and got off the carriage without looking at Wang Xu's expectant eyes.

The direction of the wind in this world is not so easy to control. If it is not done well, there will be a scene of people dying.
