Chapter 126: Tian Meimiao
Yun Shu picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said with a light smile: "I heard Hai Bo say that Steward Yun takes good care of the grange over there in Jiyang City, especially good at crop crops. ”
The voice was as clear as a stream, gentle as the wind, and a sweet smile infected.
Yun Mao was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly replied: "Gongzi and Steward Yun value it, Yun Mao should do his best to do things, and there are no big mistakes." Yun Mao knows a little about the crops. ”
Yun Mao's words were very modest, and the choice of words was quite elegant, which made Yun Shu unexpected, and he was more interested in him as a person.
Yun Shu smiled: "Steward Yun has been looking at me just now, what results can I get?" ”
Yun Mao lowered his eyes and said honestly: "Yun Mao doesn't have much ink in his belly, and the words are inappropriate, please forgive me." I was just amazed that the son was beautiful and elegant, and he was so kind to others. ”
Yunshu laughed out loud, "You're very good at talking." How many books have you read? ”
Xie Gongzi praised. Yun Mao worked in the Yun family, read a few books, knew some words, went out to run errands, and did not disgrace the name of the master's scholarly family. Yun Mao bowed his head and said respectfully.
Yun Shu nodded, it seems that this Yun Mao can achieve the position of the chief steward of the Grange, and this communication ability is also indispensable, put down the teacup and said: "Your words and deeds can take into account the name of the Yun family, this is very good." Any idea why you were called today? ”
"Steward Yun said that Childe wanted to know something about Crop Qiang, so he recruited Yun Mao over. Yun Mao must know everything. ”
"I've checked the books. Since you took over the grange in Jiyang City, the grain production has increased dramatically, and it can even be comparable to the 600 acres of land obtained in Qinghe County. In the past, the old lady was in the capital, and I had no time to take care of the grange here, but now that I have returned, I should also take care of the affairs of the field. I wonder if the cloud manager has a good plan to help me? ”
Yun Mao was overjoyed when he heard this, and Yun Shu's words were speaking to his heart. There are only 400 acres of land outside Jiyang City, he feels that it is not enjoyable to manage, and if the land property in Qinghe County is also handed over to him, he will laugh in his dreams.
It is said that those who can work harder. If the capable person is obsessed with overwork, but does not get enough attention, it is also a kind of overkill. That's how Yun Mao feels.
Now that Childe has a heart, he must perform well and win this opportunity back. As for Tian Meimiao, the steward of Qinghe County, hehe, get ready to let Xian.
Thinking of this, Yun Mao's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Childe wants to increase the grain production here in Qinghe County?" ”
Yun Shu didn't understand why he was so excited for a moment, nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"It's not that Yunmao is arrogant, after Yunmao took over the management of Jiyang, he has made some achievements. Yun Mao once thought that since he had the blue eyes of his master, he should do his best to do things for his master. For the matter of crops, I have a little experience. ”
"Tell me about it."
Yun Mao scratched his head, "Farming is about catching up with the agricultural time, because the agricultural time is related to the condition of the soil, the state of the soil is good, and after sowing, the growth state of the seedlings will be correspondingly better." ”
"What kind of time period is better?"
"After the beginning of spring, the land was frozen and the earth began to flow, which was the first reconciliation of the earth and gas in a year. After the summer solstice, the heat on the ground and the yin energy rise in the underground, and the communication between the upper and lower levels makes the soil reconcile again; Ninety days after the summer solstice, the earth is yang, the ground is cloudy, and the weather and the earth are in harmony again. These time periods are very suitable for arable land, and ploughing once is equivalent to plowing five times. ”
"What is the function of a plow and a harrow?"
"A lot of tenants only focus on the plough and ignore the harrow when farming. In fact, the rake is very important. If the rake is not fine enough and there are large soil clods, there will be large gaps in the ground, and seedlings may emerge after planting, but the roots of the seedlings are attached to the soil and the roots and the attachment of the soil cannot reach a compact state. This is not conducive to the growth of roots, is not drought tolerant, and the seedlings will even hang to death, insect bites, dry death and many other problems. The work of raking the soil is done, the soil is soft and compact, the seeds fall in such soil, and then after a layer of rolling after sowing, the roots are tightly attached to the soil, and there will be no previous problems, and the growth is better. ”
It was the first time that Yunshu had heard people use words like "delicate" and "firm" to describe soil, as if soil also had feelings, and I thought it was very interesting. If you think about it carefully, people who really cultivate the fields and cultivate the land are not treated to the fields and soil in this way.
"What do you think is the main reason for the low grain production?"
"In addition to the illegal cultivation and management, a large part of the reason is the lack of fertility of the land, which is often referred to as thin fields. To solve this problem, it is necessary to pay attention to the manure field. As for the method of manure field, you can collect grain, spread a layer in the livestock pen every day, let it trample, and the next day collect the previous one, gather it into a pile, re-spread, re-harvest, and gather again, until December or the first month of the next year, and scatter the accumulated manure into the field, which can achieve the purpose of fertilizing the field. Of course, this is only one of the ways. ”
Yun Mao's words are easy to understand, and the content has enough depth, Yun Shu feels like he has opened up another world. If you have any questions, you have been chatting with me for two hours.
Ying Niang went in to add tea several times, but she didn't have a chance to mention Li Da's matter.
With such recognition, Yun Mao also felt that the little master had a unique vision. Although the little master had not been in contact with the matter of cropping before, he now paid attention to these things, and the questions he asked could be asked to the key points. Yun Mao explained heartily, quite a sense of meeting a confidant, but he felt that talking about confidants with the little master was a little too big, and his attitude was even more respectful and eager.
Li Da waited outside the door for two hours, but no one came out. Those friends played around a lot, and only he was still waiting. finally came out of a person, not Ying Niang, not Yun Shu, not Yun Mao, but Yun Qi, who took the jujube red horse and hurriedly beat the horse away.
The Grange in Qinghe County is not very far from Baishu Village.
Tian Meimiao, the steward of the grange, is over forty years old, thin, with clear eyebrows and eyes, loves to hold a paper fan, and the whole person has a lazy temperament, although he doesn't read much, he looks like a weak scholar. I don't know if it's because the owner is free-range, or if he is lazy, the field management in Qinghe County has been so bad for more than ten years after he took over.
He didn't know that his little master lived in Baishu Village, but he heard that Steward Yun had been to Baishu Village frequently in the past few months, and he heard that a relative had moved to that village.
Tian Meimiao thought that she had time to visit, take care of her, and leave a little favor with Steward Yun. But these days are busy with farming, and there has been no time. It was easy to rest, and Yun Qi came, saying that the little master had asked him to question.
It was not early, and he didn't have to ask in detail, so he hurriedly cleaned up and followed Yun Qi out of the door. Walking and walking, I found that the road was not right.
Yun Qi replied: "The little master is now in Baishu Village. ”
"Do you know what the little master told me to do?"
"I don't know, but Yun Mao is there."
Hearing Yun Mao's name, Tian Meimiao couldn't help but stir up in the summer, and most of her laziness disappeared. It was a master who couldn't be idle all day, and the little master called himself and him together for questioning, and there was a contrast, and there was "harm". Tian Meimiao couldn't help but rub her thin chest.
"Since the return of the young master, he has not summoned us stewards. Yunqi, you follow the little master to do things, you should know the little master's temperament very well, right? ”
Before and after Yun Jin was buried with his wife, Tian Meimiao's grange was close to the Yun family's ancestral grave, and Yun Hai arranged for him to do a lot of things, so he saw Yun Shu a few times. At that time, I just felt that the little master's appearance was stunning, his temperament was outstanding, and his demeanor was square, probably in the mourning period, so he looked like he had lingering sadness, but he didn't know anything about his temperament.
Thinking of the little master's temperament, Yun Qi smiled, "When you see it, you will know." ”
Looking at Yun Qi's appearance, Tian Meimiao's heart sank again.
When the two of them hurried to the Yun Mansion, Yun Shu was talking to Yun Mao about speculation, his face was bright, and his eyes were dazzling, but with just one glance, Tian Meimiao's heart sank again.
Because he talked to Yun Mao about the field, Yun Shu remembered that Hai Bo mentioned that there was such a steward as Tian Meimiao in the Grange in Qinghe County two days ago. The manager of Yunhai's newly purchased 2,000 acres of land has not yet been decided, so he simply called him together and arranged the matter together.
Yun Shu looked at the bookish steward in front of him, smiled, and asked Ying Niang to watch the tea.
After talking with Yun Mao for a long time, Yun Shu also knew a lot about the Grange, so he asked Tian Meimiao to introduce how he had managed the Grange over the years.
Sure enough, it hurts! It's just that with Yunmao opening the way in front, he can't perform too badly, take a deep breath, and tell the story.
Tian Meimiao saw Yun Shu listening, and nodded with a smile, I don't know if he heard the vanity between his words, no matter what, he has to continue to talk about it.
In addition to reading the account book, Yun Shu had never been in contact with field management before, and when he saw that he was right, he remembered an extremely important question: "Why does the management seem to be fine, but the grain production is so much worse than that of Jiyang City?" ”
When Tian Meimiao heard this, she almost bit her tongue. The little master is as wise as a torch, and he can find the key to the problem at once. Yun Mao saw his choking appearance, picked up the teacup, and couldn't help laughing.
Tian Meimiao didn't care about Yunmao's hairy boy, took the fan, bowed her head and said: "This, this, the water conservancy here in Qinghe County is not very good, probably, probably affecting the amount of grain." ”
Yun Shu didn't want to discuss this issue with him in detail this time, after all, he was the one promoted by his father, and he must have some means. It's just that he is a steward of a grange, and he behaves like a scholar, even if he is restrained, he still has a hint of laziness, so he takes the opportunity to knock and beat him.
"Before, my father and mother were in the capital, neglecting the management of the ancestral property, but now that I am back, everything has to be arrested. Tian Steward and Yun Steward have their own merits in the management of Tian Zhuang, and they have also made a lot of efforts for the Yun family over the years. ”
Tian Meimiao sighed, and said with Yun Mao: "We should do our best. ”
"There is one more important thing that I have called you two here today. Steward Yun purchased another 2,000 mu of land in Qinghe County a few days ago, which is connected with the previous 600 mu of land. ”
