Xuan Liang ventured north, and although he lost twenty-seven soldiers, he brought back seeds of several crops for the clan, including the cotton seeds that Xiao Yiran had been looking for.

Xiao Yiran knew from the memory before rebirth that cotton should be a subtropical crop, not suitable for growing in the south, mainly because the growth of cotton needs sufficient sunlight, and in addition, cotton is very prone to pests and diseases in the growth process, which is the main reason why cotton has been planted north of the Yangtze River before rebirth. After much consideration, Xiao Yiran wanted to give it a try.

Summoned the red fruit from the Ministry of Reclamation and instructed:

"Hongguo, you take someone to choose a mountaintop, cut down the trees around the mountaintop, and then reclaim the land and plant cotton. When the cotton plants have grown to bear flower bones, gather the old people of the tribe into the cotton field to catch the pests on the cotton. ”

"Then there's these rapeseeds, which are grown in the same way as soybeans, so I don't need to explain them. As long as the remaining sorghum seeds and barley seeds are also selected on the higher ground, pay attention to digging drainage ditches in the land, and keep the land dry all the time, so that the barley and sorghum can grow vigorously. ”

Although Xiao Yiran had not done farm work before her rebirth, and she couldn't even tell what some crops looked like, she still knew something about the growing conditions of most crops.

Xiao Yiran originally refocused on the idea of honeymoon before his death, and stayed with Xuan Liang in Longshan for a month. In this month, Xiao Yiran did not let the other sixteen guards sleep, and he was entangled with Xuan Liang every night. She has made up her mind that her first child was born for Xuan Liang. A month later, Xiao Yiran led the guards, maids, and the great wizard to return to the Mengyue River station. In the next bed, the two of them were restored every night, and Xuan Liang still took turns.

None of the guards objected to this. From the emperor's attitude towards Xuan Liang, they all saw Xuan Liang's status in the emperor's mind. What's more, since a month had passed since the emperor had been alone with Xuan Liang, when it was their turn to go to bed, the emperor actually allowed them to enter. This is something they have always dreamed of, and the sixteen guards, who have been greatly satisfied, will not care about Xuan Liang's favor.

When Xiao Yiran is intimate with the two guards every night, he is also always paying attention to his body, and once he finds out that he is pregnant, he will concentrate on protecting the fetus.

Like the results that Xiao Yiran found from Xuan Liang, the Sixteen Guards were also all violent and abnormal, which convinced Xiao Yiran that ancient people did surpass humans before rebirth in terms of sexual ability. Xiao Yiran also guessed the reason, and after thinking about it, there was only one result, that is, the food eaten by the ancients was pure and natural, without any pollution. It can be seen that the reason why so many modern people suffer from sexual dysfunction is not only caused by the fast pace of life and excessive stress, but also because of the pesticides contained in food or artificially added growth hormone.

Although he was attacked by two guards every night, Xiao Yiran had no intention of changing the two-person sleeping system every day. It seems that after nearly three years of lingering, Xiao Yiran also has strong requirements in this regard, and in addition, the two guards are warm to themselves at the same time, which will bring Xiao Yiran a stronger pleasure and enjoyment. In this regard, Xiao Yiran has always been a little reluctant. The only thing that made Xiao Yiran feel a little embarrassed was that since he allowed the guards to enter his body, Xiao Yiran could not get up until close to noon every day.

Ten days later, cotton, barley, sorghum, rape, etc., several crops all sprouted smoothly, and Xiao Yiran's attention was immediately attracted. Every three or two days, I have to go to the top of the mountain or the field to check it. Barley is different from wheat, and before his rebirth, Xiao Yiran had never seen wheat planted south of the Yangtze River, but he had seen barley planted. Xiao Yiran thought in his heart, even if the barley could not be harvested, it would be good to use it as feed for horses. Of the seventy-three horses that Lin Zhan and the others snatched back, except for one that died of illness, among the remaining seventy-two horses, nineteen mares had already given birth to foals, and fourteen were already pregnant and would soon give birth to foals. The shape shì is very gratifying, and if it continues to develop like this, it won't take a few years for the dragon clan to have its own cavalry. As long as there are cavalry, there is no need to fear the fierce tribes in the north, and the dragons have the strength to compete with them. If you count the sophisticated weapons of the dragon clan, when you fight against the northern tribes, not only can you compete with them, but it is not impossible to defeat them.

Xiao Yiran looked at the gradually breeding herd of war horses, and his confidence began to swell.

On the second month after returning from Longshan with Xuanliang, Xiao Yiran found out that she was really pregnant. You don't have to guess to know that it must be Xuanliang's child. This news, when it was Xuan Liang's turn to go to bed, Xiao Yiran sued him. Xuan Liang, who couldn't help but be overjoyed, did not infringe on the beautiful emperor in his heart for the first time, and obediently lay beside the emperor, and did not close his eyes all night in excitement.

From the next day, Xiao Yiran no longer let the sixteen guards sleep, but let Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter and Meilan Zhuju take turns to serve him every night. The news of the emperor's pregnancy also spread among the clan for the first time, and everyone who had been waiting for a long time, especially the members of the Presbyterian Church, was smiling. It seems that the pregnancy of the emperor means that the clan will prosper for a long time. It makes Xiao Yiran feel a little incredible, this is unimaginable before being reborn.

Xiao Yiran was not as happy as his clansmen, and he was still worried about the difficulties in childbirth. In order not to have an accident during childbirth, Xiao Yiran tried to recall the knowledge about the health care of pregnant women in his memory. It's just that Xiao Yiran didn't get married and have children before he was reborn, and he knows very little knowledge. What Xiao Yiran can recall, one is to exercise more, the other is to eat more fruits and less fatty foods, and the second is to maintain a good mood. The first two are easy to do, and the third one is a little difficult for Xiao Yiran. The main reason is that her fear of production is difficult to eliminate. In order not to let himself be idle and think about production, Xiao Yiran forced himself to wander around every day to check the crops and smelters in the group, and even started the idea of making an oil press.

After being reborn, Xiao Yiran has been eating animal fat, although he discovered soybeans very early, Xiao Yiran has not known how to squeeze the oil out of soybeans. Now that we have rapeseed again, it's time to make an oil press. Xiao Yiran pondered for nearly a month, and only found from his memory that he seemed to have watched a costume TV series before his rebirth, and there were scenes of oil extraction in it. It is as if the seeds of a plant are pressed with a large pole, and the oil inside is squeezed out.

When Liang Mu made the oil press according to the schematic diagram given by Xiao Yiran, everyone didn't know what the two big stones in front of them were for. One had been dug out in the middle with a concave platform, and the other had just the same size as the boss. Xiao Yiran instructed his people to prop up the pit stones, add soybeans, and press another piece on it, and arranged several thick trees vertically and horizontally on the top piece, and heavy objects were hung from both ends of the trees, and soon, a yellowish viscous liquid seeped out from between the two stones.

It wasn't until Xiao Yiran asked people to fry a copper pot of wild vegetables with pressed soybean oil and let the clansmen taste them that the clansmen began to cheer. After the cheers, they revered the emperor from the bottom of their hearts, and they knelt on the ground and bowed to Xiao Yiran.

Looking at the clansmen kneeling in front of him, Xiao Yiran was also very proud, no matter what, he finally got an oil press. Since it is possible to produce oil presses, why not make stone mills as well? Shi Mo himself had seen it at his grandmother's house. However, two round stones are carved with regular stone patterns on one side, and there is a blanking opening in the middle of the upper one, and the grain to be ground is put in, and then people or animals push the upper stones, and the grain will be ground.

I thought of it, and soon the stone mill was also made. Xiao Yiran was overjoyed to think that he had finally led the group out of the era of Ru Mao drinking blood and took a big step towards the future civilization.
