Chen Yang was a little embarrassed when he heard that Jiang De was actually the owner of the IKEA oil mill, after all, he just said that he wanted to get the technology of the IKEA oil mill, but he didn't expect to meet the owner of the IKEA oil mill now.

Hearing Jiang De's invitation to him, Chen Yang suddenly twisted, Xu Guanzhong saw a handful of Chen Yang and said, "Don't twist, my father-in-law is the most bold, let's go to the restaurant in front." ”

Jiang De and others came to the restaurant, called a private room, what chicken, duck and fish were all served, and asked for a few pots of wine, Li Zhong stood next to everyone and poured the wine again, Jiang De said, "Since Mr. Chen has the name of Shennong, he must have something extraordinary, can you reveal one or two, but also give you a long insight." ”

Although Chen Yang is proficient in agriculture, but this period does not attach importance to such technical talents, readers pay more attention to the article and verse, to see if they can be named on the gold list, know that important agricultural officials also pay more attention to how to persuade farmers, rather than how to increase production, after all, in their hearts, the ancient sages did not think of ways to increase the output of the practice, as long as the people are diligent farming, where will there be no bumper harvest.

As for those landlord farmers who know the importance of Chen Yang's technology, and they do not have the ability to promote many of Chen Yang's theories, the small-scale peasant consciousness of the landlord farmer is unimaginable, if there is a successful case in front of them, if you don't teach, he will also find a way to steal learning, or even go to your field to steal seeds. But if you want them to risk experimenting with new farming methods with a year's harvest, they won't want to die.

Chen Yang saw Jiang De asking, so he said, "Since Xiao Langjun is curious, let me say that I have no interest in poetry and literature since I read books, but I have a love for agriculture, and I have spent all my time on this for decades."

If I want to say that I am excellent, I just know how to choose the field, how to fertilize the field, how to manage, how to raise cattle and plant trees. In fact, if I want to say that I know, it's just that I like to ask those old farmers, and then record the experience of those old farmers, I just hope that someone will carry it forward in the future, so that there will be no more people who die of hunger and cold in my Great Song Dynasty. ”

Saying that, Chen Yang's eyes seemed to radiate light, Niu Gao and the others were all from peasant families, listening to what Chen Yang said, they were gradually full of respect for Chen Yang.

Jiang De arched his hand and said, "Mr. Chen has such a big wish, which is really admirable, so what achievements has Mr. Chen made over the years?" For example, how much land yield will be increased? ”

Chen Yang scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "This... No, most of the squires and people couldn't believe me, and those officials were even afraid that my methods would make the farmland less harvested and stop me, so I could only plant some fields by myself and use the yield to convince others, but many people thought that I had some immortal skills because I believed in Taoism, and only regarded me as an immortal, and I also taught people, but they found out that I was not teaching immortal arts but how to fertilize the fields, so they said that I didn't teach real skills... Hehe, too. ”

Jiang De said with a smile, "That's because this group of guys has no vision, a good gold inlaid jade in front of them, but it is regarded as a straw wrapper." ”

Chen Yang heard Jiang De praise himself like this, and immediately said happily, "Does Xiao Langjun also know about agriculture?" ”

Jiang De said hehehe, "Agronomy is broad and profound, I only know some fur." ”

Xu Guanzhong said at a good time, "Mr. Chen just said that the method of soybean oil extraction that he wants to know is actually invented by my father-in-law, do you think my father-in-law knows agriculture?" ”

"Ahh Chen Yang was suddenly surprised and said, "In this way, Xiao Langjun must also be everyone, according to my research over the years, I think that the power of equipment is the fundamental way to improve agricultural power, Xiao Langjun can come up with such a method, it can be seen that he has a deep understanding of agriculture." ”

Jiang De sighed and said, "Mr. Xu, I'm just a coincidence, let's talk about you first, for example, ploughing the field, how do you say you can be Dafeng?" ”

Chen Yang immediately said, "The governance of agriculture is not as much as Lianqian crosses, but only if its financial resources are commensurate, it will be abundant and promising." As the saying goes, more is better than less, and wide planting is not as good as narrow harvesting, and the situation of each field is different, so it is necessary to treat it differently. ”

Niu Gao and the others were a little dizzy when they heard it, but Jiang De understood, what Chen Yang said was not profound, but for this era, it was already a golden and jade good word.

Jiang De said to the left and right, "People like Mr. Chen must be of great use, no matter which country can have people like Mr. Chen to assist, I'm afraid it will be like an extra 200,000 army!" ”

Xu Guanzhong said in agreement, "What the lord said is very true, since ancient times, there is no agriculture and no stability, no business is not rich, and my Song Dynasty is far richer than the Han and Tang Dynasties, it is because the emperors of the past dynasties attached importance to agriculture and commerce, so that all industries are interconnected, and the fields are luxuriant, so that people breed, and there is today." ”

Niu Gao bit a pig's foot and said, "It's just that this war can't be done, the Western Xia hasn't been destroyed for so many years, and I don't know why." ”

Jiang De snorted and said, "I walked around the northwest, and saw that although the people's lives are poorer than those in the south of the Central Plains, the army has combat strength, over the years, the imperial court has continued to build water conservancy, and the logistical pressure has been reduced a lot, if the imperial court works hard, as long as ten years of hard work, you can destroy the western thief!" ”

Although Chen Yang is a peasant idiot, he still has great hostility towards Western Xia, and when he heard Jiang De say this, he asked curiously, "Is this true?" Ten years later, can our dynasty really destroy Western Xia? ”

Zhu Wu shook his head and smiled, "Mr. Chen, don't be excited, didn't you hear what my lord said, is it to work hard for the imperial court?" Today's officials only love flowers, birds, fish and insects, poetry and songs, I am afraid that they will not be able to accomplish such a great cause, even if they really do it, it will only be a disaster for Sui Yang. ”

Chen Yang hurriedly stopped, "Mr. Zhu, don't make a noise, be careful that the wall has ears." ”

Jiang De and Xu Guanzhong saw that Chen Yang did not refute Zhu Wu's words, and they both had the bottom in their hearts, Xu Guanzhong said to Chen Yang, "Mr. Chen, you are a master of agriculture, do you know Bai Diezi?" ”

Chen Yang nodded and said, "I have also heard of this thing, some people in Lingnan plant this thing to weave cloth clothes, it is said to be strong and warm, but I have never seen it." ”

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile: "My lord got the overseas heterogeneous white stacks from the Yanfu Palace, and found that this thing is extremely suitable for weaving clothes, you can come and take a look." ”

As he spoke, Xu Guanzhong asked the warrior to take out some cotton and cotton clothes and pants from the package and hand them to Chen Yang.

Chen Yangjiu couldn't care about drinking, carefully observed the cotton, smoked some fibers with his hands, then rubbed them, touched the cotton clothes with his hands, and pulled them hard, before he said, "But it's a good material, but I don't know how the yield is?" What are the requirements for the field? ”

Xu Guanzhong smiled slightly and said, "My lord hopes that this thing can benefit the people, but how can I maximize the harvest, I don't know if Mr. Xu is willing to help my lord?" We have already explained this matter to the major generals in the northwest, as long as the yield is guaranteed, tens of thousands of acres of fields are waiting for these white stacks to settle down! When the northwest is rich, my China will also have no suffering from cold! ”

Chen Yang immediately said: "I don't dare to resign from this matter!" Please also command! ”

Jiang De clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Chen really puts the interests of the people first, which really makes me admire, I have asked people to try planting this thing by the water, and I also asked Mr. Chen to give advice." ”

Chen Yang arched his hand and said, "If you can keep the people of the world from the cold, I will be able to return to Jiuquan in this life." ”

Jiang De snorted and said, "In this case, without further ado, I will send two guards to let Mr. Chen go to Shandong, and we are still experimenting with many agricultural planting methods in Shandong, I believe Mr. Chen will definitely feel like a fish in water!" ”

Chen Yang nodded in response, and then asked hesitantly, "Jiang Gongzi... So where do you want to go? ”

Jiang De said, "I came to Jiangnan this time for sea ships, but I don't know where to find shipyards and craftsmen who can manufacture sea ships in large quantities. ”

Chen Yang asked suspiciously, "If you want to make a boat, this Jiangnan shipyard is everywhere, is it what kind of special ship Jiang Gongzi wants?" ”

Jiang De nodded and said, "What I want is a sea ship, and it is a sea ship, I believe you also know that this sea is not completely peaceful, maybe there will be pirates or something, so the sea ship I want should also have the function of a warship, otherwise I am worried that this sea will be a meat bun and a dog, and there will be no return." ”

There were not many pirates in the Song Dynasty, and the later generations of pirates were not active at this time, and the pirates outside the country were more composed of troops or displaced people from Jiaozhi, Visheye and other places, of course, there were some Song merchants who lost their capital and became pirates themselves, but in general, compared with the later Ming Dynasty, the maritime frontier of the Song Dynasty was relatively quiet.

At this time, most of the pirates were active in Fujian and Guangdong in later generations, and the Song army was more of a plague, rather than a blow, mainly because the pirates were really floating, and the cost was too high to exterminate.

As a native of Jiangnan, Chen Yang naturally understands this truth, and he also understands why Jiang De wants a sea ship like a warship, he thought about it and said, "The warship wants speed and stability, while the merchant ship wants stability and capacity, the two are incompatible, Jiang Gongzi wants two combined ships, but it is extremely difficult, and everyone can't do it unless they are peerless." ”

Jiang De sighed, "Yes, but warships are not built by ordinary merchants, in fact, I can get the drawings of the ships here, and I want craftsmen." ”

Chen Yang thought for a while and said, "I know of a shipyard, they have encountered a lot of difficulties recently, if Xiao Langjun has surplus wealth, he can relieve their hardships and accept their shipyard, which can be regarded as a merit." ”

Jiang De listened and asked with great interest, "Mr. Chen, can you tell me, what kind of dock is this?" ”

Chen Yang sighed, "Speaking of this shipyard is also pitiful, this shipyard surnamed Gao, located in Mingzhou, was originally a big shipyard, it is said that as early as Wu Yue, he made a warship for King Qian, and now it has been a hundred years."

A few years ago, the life of the shipyard was good, but in recent years, most of the shipyards need to apportionment of the boat, this Gao family received the will to build a ship, who would have thought that suddenly there was a strong wind, the ship being built was destroyed by most of the half, unable to hand over the ship is a big crime, the Gao family has no choice, can only buy his ship with a lot of money, this time, the family is empty.

In order to make a comeback, the Wu family was preparing to start over, but they didn't expect that on the Yellow River, a strong wind actually overturned the ship they handed over to the imperial court.

Now the Wu family's shipyard has no business, although there are still many craftsmen, but I heard that they can't even get the money, not to mention that the old head of the Wu family is also sick because of these blows, it is in danger, if Xiao Langjun can give assistance, it must be used by Xiao Langjun. ”

Jiang De and Xu Guanzhong exchanged a look, such a Gao family seems to be quite suitable for what he needs now.

Jiang De asked Chen Yang to write down the address of the Gao family's shipyard in detail, ate and drank again, and asked two warriors to escort Chen Yang to Liangshan, of course, at this time, Chen Yang did not know that what he was about to arrive at was not an agricultural experimental field but a robber's den.

"Lord, Chen Yang has an indifferent personality to fame and fortune, there are many prefects in Jiangnan who want to recruit him as an official, he refuses, only focuses on the farmland, the lord sent him to Liangshan this time, I am afraid that he will refuse to help him after he knows the truth, and he has to find a way." Xu Guanzhong said to Jiang De as he walked.

Jiang De nodded and said, "I also know what you said, so what do you say?" ”

Zhu Wu said with a cruel smile, "There are many local fools in his fields who snoop on, I can kill a few in his name, and wait for the sea to catch the paperwork, he can't go down the mountain even if he wants to." ”

Jiang De smiled bitterly, this Water Margin person really likes to be framed like this, but I have to say that this is indeed a good way, even in later generations, it is difficult to detect the careful framing, not to mention that at this time, Jiang De shook his head after thinking about it and said, "So I'm worried that he is unwilling, if you can not use this method, it is better not to." ”

Zhu Wu sighed: "The lord is merciful! ”

Xu Guanzhong said, "Since the lord doesn't want to use poison, but there is also a law, although Chen Yang is indifferent to fame and fortune, but he is obsessed with whether he can spread his agronomy, and now the lord has almost completely mastered a place in Yuncheng County, and can select dozens of children and teenagers to learn the way of agriculture with him, and all the farmland cultivation in Yuncheng County is done in accordance with his ideals, so I am afraid that he will leave, and he is unwilling." ”

Zhu Wu clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Xu's clever plan!" Lord, this strategy works! ”

Jiang De snorted, and immediately called a black-clothed warrior with a letter, asking him to ride a fast horse to Liangshan to inform Chao Gai of this matter and make arrangements.

After the arrangements were made, the group rushed to Mingzhou.

Mingzhou, that is, Ningbo in later generations, was changed to Ningbo because of the Ming Dynasty's avoidance of the country. The Mingzhou Prefecture of this matter is the later Ningbo City, Mingzhou is the Zhoushan Islands before the Zhoushan Islands, the rich marine resources make it here since ancient times there is a custom of going to sea, and there will be no shortage of docks to build sea ships.

"Lord, here, this is Mingzhou." Xu Guanzhong pointed to Mingzhou City in front of him and said.

"Hey, the expansion of Diting's intelligence station is still too slow, it's okay in Hebei, Shandong and other places, this way into Shu south, every place we go to is almost blank, it's okay at this time, if there is a war, I'm afraid we will suffer." Jiang De looked at Mingzhou City, which was a little short, and said.

"What the lord said is very true, but the time is too little, please give more time to the truth." Xu Guanzhong arched his hand and said.

Jiang De naturally understood that this matter was in a hurry, so he didn't say much, just waved his hand to indicate that he had entered the city.
