Chapter 474 Peanut Promotion Meeting

Seeing Tao Qian's confession, while Li Ming silently despised him in his heart, he also devoted himself to developing the agriculture of the territory.

The most intuitive evaluation of agriculture in the past dynasties is "no agriculture is unstable". For the common people, as long as they can eat enough and wear warmth, and the officials don't collect taxes so harshly, then it will be a peaceful and prosperous age.It's a bit ironic, but the so-called peaceful and prosperous times in the past dynasties are actually that simple. Kang Mazi even piled up a "peaceful and prosperous age" with sweet potatoes and corn.

Kuaiji County, Luling County, and Fujian County are not rich in grain, especially in the later generations of Fujian Province, which has always been short of grain, so generations of Fujianese have to go to sea to beg for a living, and they are also forced out by grain.

No, since the three counties are not suitable for growing food, and Li Ming doesn't want to damage the environment through terraced fields, he must develop Wu County, Danyang County, Yuzhang County, and Changsha County to the maximum extent, and even try to make a living in Lujiang County and Jiujiang County. The county buys grain, and when necessary, it also buys in Guangling County and Xiapi State.

Yizhou has already started to develop, and in one to two years, it will be able to feed back Kuaiji County and Fujian County, and by then it will be able to solve many cost problems in grain transportation.

"Are the peanuts ripe? This is the second season...how is the output?" The manager in his own farm came to report, and Li Ming was immediately interested when he heard the news that the peanuts were ripe again.

In terms of agricultural reform, Li Ming temporarily assigned Zhang Mo to be in charge of upgrading Danyang County, while Ren Jun was in charge of Yuzhang County and Changsha County.Their experience is more sophisticated than his own, so Li Ming doesn't want to do things like 'a layman manages an expert'.

In contrast, the peanuts produced by ourselves are worthy of attention.

"The master arranged for us to take good care of it. Naturally, I dare not be sloppy. This year's peanut production has slightly increased by [-]% compared to the first season. Coupled with the previously expanded number of acres, the production has nearly doubled." The steward quickly reported the data. up.

"As far as our Zhuangzi is concerned?" Li Ming asked immediately. The first batch of peanuts weighed only a hundred catties. After deducting the part that failed to germinate, the harvest was more than 1000 kilograms.

Li Ming decided to take out [-] catties, not only for tasting, but also gave some to his subordinates to let them go back to plant.They have already realized the value of this crop, and they should be harvesting one after another now.As for the remaining five hundred catties, Li Ming replaced all the crops in the village with peanuts. As a result, this year ushered in another bumper harvest.

"Can we plant another season this year?" Li Ming looked at the steward.

"It's possible, but it's a waste of land. The old slave thinks it's better to grow beans for a season. The old slave has already ordered the tenants below to work harder to make the soybeans fuller and squeeze out more soybean oil!" The steward replied.

"Well, you know more about this than I do. Since it's suitable for planting beans, let's plant beans!" Li Ming nodded.

After thinking for a while, he continued to order: "Take out a thousand catties of the harvested peanuts, and keep the rest to continue planting. Remember to dry the peanuts, otherwise it is easy to mold. In addition, the moldy peanuts must be thrown away. Aspergillus is poisonous!"

"Old slave understands!" The steward replied tremblingly.

Three days later, Li Chong's seventh birthday came. Strictly speaking, he was only six years old this year, but according to the custom, he was one year old when he was born. This is also called false age, so Li Chong is now seven years old. age.

The little guy started practicing qi when he was four years old. After two years, he insisted on soaking in medicated baths every day, taking the medicine of Guben Peiyuan, and even prepared a lot of big fish and meat at home for his consumption.

Any Qi practitioner who wants to condense the innate Qi must soak in medicinal baths and take medicines that strengthen the foundation and cultivate the essence since childhood.It seems that only in this way can the meridians of the body be expanded and strengthened to adapt to the upcoming awakening.

It is said that if you practice the exercises above the middle grade of Huang level, you will have a certain probability of awakening the innate qi.But if you want to do it 100%, it is best to practice from the secret books of the mysterious level, preferably above the middle grade of the mysterious level.After practicing, one must awaken the innate qi before the age of 12, otherwise one can only enter the practice of acquired qi.The first 12 years old can be said to be the most critical time.

"Rest for 10 minutes!" Li Ming instructed Li Chong to practice martial arts as usual.In fact, for a seven-year-old child, martial arts training is mainly about exercising physical fitness, and the amount of exercise is not much, at most it is equivalent to the warm-up level of an adult.

After all, the child's body has not grown up. Excessive squeezing will only overdraw his potential and vitality.Science, whether it is practicing Qi or martial arts, everything must pay attention to scientific training and reasonable work and rest.

"Father, I plan to retreat in the near future and try to gather the innate qi!" Li Chong wiped his sweat and asked forward.

"My original plan was to allow you to start to condense next year. The condensing of innate qi carries some risks after all. My father hopes that you can challenge again when you grow up a little bit more." Li Ming was worried. Said.

"My child has been practicing for more than two years. My father has prepared a lot of elixir-level medicines for strengthening the foundation and strengthening the essence for the child. The medicinal bath has also been further improved. The child has benefited a lot and has grown rapidly in the past two years. Because of this, the child thinks , you can try to condense the innate energy in advance, even if you don’t succeed, at least I have experience, I’m still young, I’ll challenge next time!” Li Chong said confidently.

"Since you have this confidence, what I can do is to bless you!" Li Ming smiled and touched Li Chong's head, which is already 1.3 meters tall. The little guy has no shortage of nutrition and is growing fast .

After Li Chong rested, he went to meditate and practice.He has to make complete preparations for condensing the innate qi, and it is very likely that he will retreat in the next two days at most.

It's not like Li Ming didn't think about it, if Li Chong couldn't gather his innate energy before he was 12 years old.Then he can use the fifth subordinate quota on him, so that he can at least shorten the process of cohesion through upgrading.

After a simple cleaning and a change of dry clothes, Li Ming got into the carriage and headed to the government office.

The biggest thing today is probably the promotion of peanuts.The aristocratic families from Yuzhang County, Changsha County, Luling County and Danyang County have all brought them here, and Li Ming plans to distribute a thousand catties of peanuts for them to plant.

When he came to the government office, he was fast, and Wang Yu and Liu Yao came one after another.The former already knew about the existence of peanuts, and he also allocated some fields in Zhuangzi in Wu County to grow them.But Liu Yao heard of it for the first time. Knowing that this thing can extract oil, and the taste is not bad, the oil residue can be fed to livestock or even feed their hunger, and the output is also very high, so he is naturally interested.

Dahan used to want to eat oil, mainly cauliflower oil, or animal oil. The taste of cauliflower oil is not good, and the source of animal oil is unstable and the price is not cheap.In the absence of oil and water, the common people can only eat more rice to supplement, so that the food consumption will increase. The key point is the lack of oil and water. Most of the people are sallow and emaciated, giving people the feeling that they have no strength.

"This one is called peanut, is it really so magical?" Liu Yao couldn't help looking at Li Ming.

"Later I will cook on the spot, let everyone taste the taste, adults may as well taste it at that time, and then you will know what I said is true!" Li Ming said with his hands clasped, Liu Yao is still his immediate boss in name.

"If it's really so miraculous, then you've made a great contribution!" Liu Yao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

 The third update, as promised, there will definitely be!
