Luo Yuhong hit the idea to the pair of bronze lions in front of the carrier door, which scared Tan Fang to the point of discoloration.

"Miss Luo, that can't be moved!"

The bronze lion is a part of the overall building of the carrier hall, and the copper lion is equivalent to moving the carrier hall. In this matter, Miss Luo did not discuss it with the prince, so she made an opinion. Tan Fang was anxious, and hurriedly reminded: "The carrier hall is the main hall of the palace, representing the national fortune of our Shu land. The bronze lion is a sacred beast in the town hall, and it can't be moved! As soon as the divine beast moves, the hall is unstable, and the fortune of the country ......"

Tan Fang linked the pair of bronze lions with the national fortune of the Shu Domain, but Luo Yuhong disagreed.

"Feudal superstition!" She snorted coldly in her heart and waved her hand contemptuously at Tan Fang.

"There are two true gods, the son of the world and this girl, what demons and monsters can't be suppressed? Who has eaten the gall of a leopard and dared to shake the fortunes of the country? You ask Zheng Changshi to build a pair of white marble lions to put on, and then hold a ceremony to invite the gods, and the news media will interview them on the spot. And ......"

Luo Yuhong turned her head and immediately thought of the monks and nuns who tortured her in Daci Temple.

"Invite all the monks and great virtues in the city to do it, and let them see with their own eyes what our Shu Wangfu has done in order to win the war! By the way, remind them that there are a lot of iron and bronze tools in their temples! Don't just think about chanting scriptures and singing Buddha every day, chanting scriptures and singing Buddha can't kill the tyrant! To use cannons! There are hundreds of copper cannons in this batch, and you remember to inform Wang Kunshan, Li Li and others: you want to go to high technology! The last time the prince inspected the Firearms Bureau, he proposed to them the method of inverted casting, the method of iron mold, the method of hot forging, and the method of internal tightening, and they had to think about how to apply it. And their production of firearms, twenty guns a day, thunder does not move! What's going on? How long does it take for the seventy corps to complete the equipment? If you can't increase the production anymore, this girl is going to take off her pants and spank their ass! ”

"Remember, this is the order, Miss Luo."

Miss Luo speaks quickly, and new words come out one after another. Tan Fang saw that Miss Luo had made up her mind, so she no longer persuaded her. She carefully used the things arranged by Luo Yuhong to write down the things in the notebook, so as not to omit anything. In the future, when the son of the world investigates, she can also reply clearly.

After arranging the big and small things, Luo Yuhong remembered another important matter: "The telescope mentioned by Luo Jingyun is the matter of the clairmile mirror, has the Qin descendant inquired clearly, whose family dedicated it?" ”

"Father-in-law Qin hasn't returned yet."

Luo Yuhong snorted heavily, "Hmph! He didn't take this girl seriously! ”

Luo Jingyun wrote to his sister from the old city of Dingyuan, saying that the prince had a clairvoyant mirror in his hand, which was extremely useful on the battlefield. If the palace still exists, you might as well give him one.

Of course, Luo Yuhong didn't have much, so he was interested in the clairvoyant mirror.

After some understanding, she found that the one in Zhu Pingjian's hand was rewarded by the princess when he went on the expedition. The clue pointed to the princess, and Luo Yuhong wrote to her father to inquire. But her father didn't know, Luo Yuhong had to ask Qin Yi to send someone to inquire. But Luo Yuhong ignored one point, although Zhu Pingjin honestly confessed to her that there was a small spy organization called the "message group" under Qin Yi, he did not hand over the command of this news group to her.

Qin Yi's refusal to use the message team for the clairfront mirror made Luo Yuhong angry for thirty seconds. After that, Luo Yuhong suddenly understood that this Qin descendant was her husband's henchman, and he refused to use the message group, it must be her husband's secret instructions.

Luo Yuhong looked at the phoenix embroidered with gold thread on her cuffs, gritted her teeth in her heart, and hated Zhu Pingjin for thirty seconds. Then she quietly changed her relaxed expression and said to Tan Fang: "At night, you asked Xiaohong to come over and wait for this girl to sleep, but for some reason in the past few days, I have lost some sleep." Now you invite Zheng Changshi to come in. ”

……

Zheng Anmin asked to see Luo Yuhong early in the morning because the spring ploughing of the year is approaching, but Sichuan lacks one very important livestock: ploughing cattle.

With a small area of cultivated land, Sichuan has achieved the reputation of the land of abundance, which has a lot to do with the characteristics of Sichuan's water and soil and farming methods.

The soil layer in the Sichuan Basin, especially in several impact plains, is extremely thick and fertile, and deep tillage is conducive to giving full play to the fertility of the soil. Whether it's rice, wheat, corn and red vetch, moderate deep tillage can help increase yields. This is completely different from the dryland farming style that is used to shallow cultivation in some parts of the north.

To plough the soil, ploughing cattle is the key to saving manpower and increasing productivity.

A sturdy male buffalo can plough eight acres of paddy fields a day, and a strong man has to lie down on two acres of land every day, so a cow is equivalent to at least four or five people.

It's not just a matter of ease and exhaustion.

Because the material consumption of a cow is completely disproportional to the corresponding labor consumption. Cows can eat grass, but people cannot. So with one cow, you can save food for four people. If 10,000 cows are used, 150,000 stone of grain can be saved, or 40,000 Ding Zhuang can be liberated.

In addition, ploughing cattle is also an important help for the recent implementation of reclamation in Shu Wangfu.

The Sichuan Reclamation Bureau, led by Liu Zhibo, is formulating a Sichuan-wide reclamation promotion policy, while the administrative secretary of the Shu Prince's Mansion has already made a medium- and long-term reclamation plan after the imperial meeting.

In this plan, the Shu Wangfu should strive to make all the local Wangzhuang reclaim 15 million acres of wasteland within five years. This year's target is to restore and reclaim 3 million mu of wasteland.

Of the 3 million mu, the target of 700,000 mu went down to Luzhou, 800,000 mu went down to Miantong, 700,000 mu went down to Jianzi, and the remaining 800,000 mu was shared by Chengdu, Yajia, Shunqing, Qiongmei and other Wangzhuang.

Now, Luzhou is making rapid progress, and it is a certainty that the task will be overfulfilled. In addition to subjective factors such as effective organization, the vast majority of local wasteland is also an important objective reason.

The promotion of dryland crops such as wheat, corn, red vetch and sugarcane has turned many hilly and hillside slopes that are not suitable for rice cultivation into good land for everyone to compete for, and the cultivation of corn and red vetch is more troublesome and labor-saving than rice, because it does not need to build ridges and store water;

However, there are a large number of good paddy fields in the Miantong Fujiang River Basin, but the progress is slow due to the lack of cattle. Qiu Ruiguang of Miantong General Village complained that there were many paddy fields along the Fujiang River in Miantong and that water buffalo were needed, and the water buffalo in the herd were all taken away and eaten up by thieves, disaster victims, and officers and soldiers. He organized people to open up wasteland, and there was no shortage of wasteland, because Miantong was the area most destroyed by thieves; There is no shortage of people, because the displaced people who went south to Sichuan from Hanzhong Longyou, he has already thought of intercepting them on the spot. What is most lacking is the buffalo.

He said that if he didn't have a buffalo, he would have had to grow low-value dryland crops like corn and wheat on good paddy fields, and the losses would be great.

……

Zheng Anmin sat upright in front of Luo Yuhong and began to speak: "Miss Luo, farming is the foundation of the country. And the cultivator can't do without oxen ......"

"Zheng Changshi, now there is a shortage of cattle in Sichuan. Just talk about the solution. ”

How is this Luo girl's temperament very different from that of the world! Zheng Anmin muttered in his heart, so he had to swallow the second half of the speech alive.

"The minister thinks that there are only three ways to increase the number of cows: one is to buy, the other is to live, and then it is strictly forbidden to kill cattle and eat cows. Cattle are too slow to give birth to cattle, and it is the fastest to buy, but around Shudi, where there are buffaloes, it is nothing more than Xingdu Division (Note 1), Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi and other places......"

"You can go to the south to buy, but you can't buy it directly from the Shu Palace, you have to use a market-oriented way."

Luo Yuhong held back Zheng Anmin's words again: "Listed for bidding, how much is a cow." Leave enough profit for the cattle traders to let them trade on their own. In addition to buying in the south, you also have to buy in the north. Now that there is more and more dry land, you can't just buy buffalo, you have to buy some northern cattle. Northern cattle are larger than Sichuan cattle, have good meat quality, and can also drink milk ......"

Why is it that as soon as this girl speaks, she is "good meat"? Could it be that Miss Luo advocates that beef be eaten openly? China is based on farming, and the prohibition of killing and eating cattle has almost become the law of all dynasties, why doesn't this girl know?

Without waiting for Zheng Anmin to say his objections, Luo Yuhong said again: "Give the cattle dealers the name of the Shu Palace, so that they can avoid tariffs and harassment by officers and soldiers." If necessary, you can also have the Shunfeng Dart Bureau armed to protect it! However, buying cattle is not a long-term solution. How can we have so much silver? If there is a lot of silver flowing out, how can the money keep its value? Therefore, after all, the ploughing cattle still have to have more lives. ”

"What Miss Luo said is extremely true!" Zheng Anmin finally interjected, "In Sichuan, 50,000 ploughing cattle are not enough. Now a thousand catties of bully in Chengdu are worth two hundred and fifty taels of silver, how much silver can the palace come up with? ”

"In addition to 50,000 ploughing cattle, we also need 50,000 beef cattle and 50,000 dairy cows, which add up to 150,000 heads!"

Luo Yuhong showed three slender fingers to Zheng Anmin in front of him, and Zheng Anmin was stunned. Without waiting for Zheng Anmin to react, Luo Yuhong came to a conclusion: "Therefore, the fundamental solution is to have more children and eugenics!" ”

The minister also thought of this, so he brought a husband and wife. They are cattle farmers who have been raising cattle for many years, if Miss Luo ......"

"Let them in!"

The couple's surname is Zuo, and they are professional cattle farmers in Wangzhuang. Thirty years ago, they sparked a spark of love in the cowshed; Twenty-eight years ago, they had a love affair in the cowshed; To this day, everything in the cowshed is still the subject of their lives.

"Don't be afraid, what to say." Luo Yuhong said to the trembling couple. With the sensitivity peculiar to a woman, she noticed that the two of them entered the hall and actually held hands and shook together. So she couldn't help but have a lot of good feelings for this poor couple.

"I know about raising cattle." Luo Yuhong first announced her expertise to the couple, "You just need to talk about the cattle in your farm. ”

Miss Luo didn't have a shelf, which made the couple breathe a sigh of relief. When it comes to the cattle in the village, there is really no one more familiar with them than them. The two of them said a word, and soon told the situation of the cattle in Wangzhuang, Chengdu County.

Most of the cattle in the Wangzhuang are from the village. A small number are from large families. Tenants rarely raise cattle, and even if they do, they are kept by several families, mainly because calves cannot afford to buy them. Once in debt, the cattle are taken away.

The busy farming season is the peak period for the use of cattle, so the price of cattle is very high, and most farmers cannot afford to use it. Taking spring ploughing as an example, if you plough an acre of paddy field, the cattle owner will collect a bucket of rent grain.

Last year, except for the five beetles, the village was completely chaotic. Many cattle ran away, but most of them were not recovered, and they were probably trafficked or eaten. Later, the princess and the prince reduced the rent, the price of grain was high, and the enthusiasm of the farmers for farming increased greatly, and everyone came to borrow cattle, but the cattle were transferred away by the general village, and it is said that they were transported to the south of Sichuan to reclaim the wasteland. The cattle are becoming more and more insufficient, and the rent has risen to three buckets per acre.

Luo Yuhong began to ask: "Is there a centralized cattle breeding site in the village?" ”

"There is one on the county farm, and there are more than 20 cows. There are about the same number of males, females and calves. But it's not enough, more than 20 cows, and the sky is only enough to plough 3,000 acres of land......"

"In the future, each county will build a large breeding farm! Concentrate on breeding and increase the number. Tan Fang, record! ”

Everything you need to know knows. Luo Yuhong no longer wanted to waste time, and ordered: "Find a place to do the test first, and select a strong and docile bull and a few cows." ...... of breeding excellent varieties through crossbreeding"

"Why should a bull be matched with a number of cows? And hybridization! It's not fair! Luo Yuhong was touched by her own words, "If cows are like this, will people be like this!" ”

"From the minister's point of view, the Zhuangzi of the king of Neijiang in the west of the city is very good. Now there's no one there, and no one wants to live in it, so it's better to ......."

Zheng Anmin didn't know what Luo Yuhong was thinking. The Zhuangzi he was talking about was the place where plague patients were forcibly quarantined last July. At that time, dozens of patients and suspected patients were arrested. More than a dozen people died inside, and the rest gradually recovered and were released before the Spring Festival.

"Yes!" Luo Yuhong arranges the work, always so concise, "It is inevitable that there will be plague this year, and soap and lime must be stockpiled." In addition, find a remote place to be an infectious disease hospital! ”

"Miss Luo is very worried!" Zheng Anmin hurriedly catered to him.

At this time, the old man finally mustered up the courage and pleaded:

"It is said that Shizi and Miss Luo are the reincarnation of immortals, and Xiaomin has something to ask for."

"Let's talk about it!" Luo Yuhong has a good impression of the old man who pinched his wife's withered hands.

"This cow is too slow and too few, only climbs once a year, and can't give birth to a calf for two or three years. Unlike dogs, they are born every year, with a litter of four or five cubs. Xiaomin and his wife have raised cattle all their lives, and this calf has only given birth to a hundred and ten. If the ox climbs the back every year, it will give birth to a ...... every year"

The old man was talking, but Luo Yuhong suddenly thought of a powerful way to clean up the herd of wives and concubines. She couldn't help but sneer.

"Miss Luo," Tan Fang looked at Luo Yuhong in fear, afraid that she would be stunned.

"It's fine!" Luo Yuhong covered her mouth with one hand, and waved her other hand casually, "The men all go out, and the compatriots stay." ”

A quarter of an hour later, the farmer's wife came out of the temple with a blushing face. The old man didn't care about Zheng Changshi's presence, and quickly ran over to ask his wife what kind of fairy method Miss Luo taught in it.

His wife looked at him from top to bottom, and then from bottom to top, biting her lip and smiling: "Don't ask anything!" Go home and hurry up and prepare two bamboo pipes. One thick, one thin. Remember to polish smooth, coarse on the inside, and fine on the outside! ”

Note 1: The Dechang buffalo in Xichang, Sichuan and other places is medium in size and is a famous breed of Chinese buffalo. There is also a bullfighting show here.
