Chapter 49: Showing the Way to Pang Tong (Part I)

The yield per mu increased by two percent, but Zhuge Liang did not exaggerate, and even had some reservations.

In the seventies and eighties of later generations, chemical fertilizers were not fully popularized in rural areas, and many places in rural areas used more farm fertilizers. However, the yield of rice per mu in the seventies and eighties in later generations was about seven or eight hundred catties, to say the least.

At that time, hybrid rice was not popular.

And the yield per mu in this era, even the rice with the highest yield, is only two or three stones.

According to the situation of later generations, the crops with farmhouse fertilizer increased by 50% per mu, which is still because Zhuge Liang said conservatively.

Zhuge Liang said it easily and conservatively, but to Pang Tong's ears, it was already a bit shocking.

What is the concept of increasing production by 50%?

Taking the 30 hectares of fertile land of the Zhuge family as an example, planting wheat in winter and rice in summer, the tenants worked hard for a year, and the total output was only about 1,000 stones. If it is better, there are 1,200 stones; Almost, it's only eight or nine hundred stones.

This is still a year of good weather and wind.

According to this era, the landlord's tenant rent, the Zhuge family will charge half of the tenant rent for this thousand stone grain.

And the nearly 30 tenant farmers, after a year of hard work, each family only harvested an average of 15 or 6 stone of grain.

A family of three or five, or even seven or eight, has to bear all kinds of taxes, and only has an income of fifteen or sixteen stone of grain a year. In a good year, the tenants can barely survive; In the event of a natural or man-made disaster, it is normal for tenants to sell their children and daughters.

It's not that Zhuge Liang doesn't pity the tenants, but this is the case throughout this era.

If he Zhuge Liang rashly lowers the tenant rent, this will break the conventional rules of the landlords, and what awaits him will be the sanctions of the entire Jingxiang landlord class, and even the landlord class across the country, and those big families will also step on it.

Because, this is breaking the rules.

Even if he Zhuge Liang has a master behind him, he will also be a street rat, a Jingxiang landlord class, a big family in Jingxiang, and everyone shouts and beats. When the time comes, let alone seeking Jingxiang for Uncle Liu Huang, the world is so big, I'm afraid there will be no place for him.

Of course, this does not mean that the landlord class eats people and does not spit out bones.

Half of the tenant rent is charged, which is not subject to change.

However, the vast majority of the landlord class also took care of their tenant farmers.

During the New Year's holidays, some grain was distributed to the tenant farmers; If there is a big event, they will also send some cloth and silk to the tenants. In the event of a disaster, most landlords would also provide relief to their tenant farmers, either by giving soup or by lending grain to the tenants.

Most of the landlords and heroes of this era are still very pure, even if they lend grain to tenants, there is nothing to return, let alone any usury.

It was only after the Tang Dynasty that these things were played bad by those black-hearted landlords.

Before the Sui and Tang dynasties, in the Qin and Han dynasties, the landlord class was not a person who ate people and did not spit out bones!

Gossip a bit far, let's get down to business.

If the grain output increases by fifty percent, the total grain output of the Zhuge family will be able to increase by another five or six hundred stones. If half of the tenant rent that needs to be handed over to the Zhuge family is opened, each tenant can get an extra eight or nine stone grain; In this way, the tenants of the Zhuge family can basically have enough to eat.

To eat well, in this era, is to run to a well-off.

This is only for the tenants of the Zhuge family.

If this Zhuge fertilizer is pushed to the world again, the people of the whole world will benefit!

Grain production increased by 50%, calculated by the cultivated land area of the Han Dynasty, even if there is no population data before the chaos in the world, I am afraid that it will be able to fill their bellies, which is the real no more hunger worries!

If Zhuge pox is just a cure, this Zhuge fertilizer is really benefiting the whole world.

There are countless real living people!

……

"Can this Zhuge fertilizer really increase production by fifty percent?" Pang Tong didn't doubt it, but he just wanted to confirm it.

He was born in a large landowner's family, so he naturally knew what it was to increase grain production by 50%. At the same time, he also knew that if this Zhuge fertilizer could really increase the yield of the fields, what a glory would be the status and fame of this Zhuge Kongming.

And he Pang Tong, can he still lie on the dragon and phoenix chicks at that time, and keep up with them?

Facing Pang Tong's question, Zhuge Liang smiled: "It's still just an experiment. ”

"However, looking at the growth of wheat seedlings this winter, as well as the predictions of those old farmers, in the coming year, it will not be a problem for my family's 30 hectares of wheat to increase the yield by 50%; It is not even a miracle that the yield of a few plots of land has doubled. ”

"This is just Zhuge fertilizer in the experiment."

"In the future, maybe we will experiment with better Zhuge fertilizer."

"However, when the results of this experiment come out, it will be like Zhuge pox, and it will be pushed to the world."

"Brother Shiyuan, you say, if this Zhuge fertilizer is implemented in the world again, what will happen to my Zhuge Kongming?"

This is not Zhuge Liang boasting about his exploits, but wanting to wake up Pang Shiyuan.

With Pang Tong's ingenuity, if he can really calm down and do practical things, not to mention any inventions such as farm fertilizer and Zhuge pox, it is the geokinetic instrument, "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and the like, and it is not that no one has done it!

Now, Zhuge Liang is already a monk, and he is running for the way of immortality, and he can do things to benefit the people, but he is not ready to touch the invention or discovery of the way of killing, such as the Zhuge crossbow or something.

However, it would be a pity if such a good battlefield weapon, a weapon that can increase one's chances of victory, is discarded.

So, Zhuge Liang thought of Pang Tong.

With Pang Tong's intelligence, as long as he calms down, engages in research and development by the way, and then has him Zhuge Liang a little side knock, Pang Tong will come up with any battlefield weapon, Zhuge Liang will not be surprised.

It's not that Zhuge Liang wants to pit Pang Tong!

Because, Pang Tong is not a monk.

Ordinary people, even if their sins are heinous and their luck is insufficient, they will not have heavenly curses and thunderstorms. At most, it is full of bad luck and everything is not going well. Of course, if it is more serious, it will inevitably be natural and man-made disasters.

For monks, the slightest natural and man-made disaster is not a problem.

Only the thunder tribulation was changed by the monks.

Luck is abundant, although it can resolve the thunderstorm. However, an invention like the Zhuge crossbow will definitely reduce luck. Zhuge Liang, as a monk, how can he invent it again. In this way, it can only be Pang Shiyuan's relay.

Of course, there is another point, Zhuge Liang is not good to say clearly.

Pang Tong or the original owner before, they were all arrogant people, only caring about the name of the Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chicks, but there was nothing to benefit the people, which was inevitably a bit of a loss of the name of the Wolong and Phoenix Chicks.

Now this awakening is to want Pang Tong to do more research and development in the future.

Not only is it a battlefield weapon, but it is also very necessary to benefit the people.

After all, with their wisdom and the knowledge of Zhuge Liang's later generations as the backing, isn't it like having fun to engage in research and development?

……

Zhuge fertilizer will be popularized in the world, and the world's grain production will increase by 50%, what will happen to Zhuge Liang, the initiator?

Pang Tong thought with his toes, he knew what Zhuge Liang would do!

Cangjie made words, shocked the world and cried ghosts and gods, and was sent to the altar; When Shennong's tasted a hundred herbs, he had grains and medicine, so Shennong's also ascended to the altar; Even Kong Meng, who had just taught a group of good apprentices, was now staying on the altar.

Zhuge pox + Zhuge fat, Zhuge Kongming ascended to the altar and left his name in history, which is predictable.

How many people who want to go down in history, but have little hope, how envious, jealous and hateful are the great achievements?

What's more, Zhuge Kongming was not yet twenty years old at this time, and he was already destined to go down in history, and it was still the most important stroke; thinks that he is Pang Tong, known as the phoenix, and Zhuge Wolong is also on a par, but now he still has achieved nothing.

There is no harm without contrast.

The two of them were originally neck and neck, but at this time, Pang Tong felt that he had received 100,000 critical damage.

Moreover, Pang Tong already knew that Zhuge Liang was a monk. For monks, it is negligible to ascend to the altar and leave a name in history; Only luck is indispensable for monks.

Zhuge Liang doesn't care whether he is famous or not, because he pursues the way of immortality.

But he has no hope of immortality, so he can only go to the goal of leaving a name in history.

It's just that now it seems that for Zhuge Kongming, the name in history is within reach, but it is like abandonment.

And what about him Pang Shiyuan?

What should I do, so that he Pang Tong can be like Zhuge Kongming, and his name can be left in history at his fingertips?

"Kong Ming's kindness, I understand, but for a while, what should I do to make great achievements and leave them in history?" Pang Tong was not embarrassed, and asked directly.

He can understand that Zhuge Liang pulled out Zhuge Pox and Zhuge Fat, in fact, he is not showing off in front of his ordinary, but telling him Pang Tong that today's Zhuge Kongming has already achieved such an achievement, if he Pang Tong does not catch up, Wolong and Phoenix Chicks will eventually become a joke, his Pang Tong's joke.

This is spurring him on!

Zhuge Liang analyzed: "Just now, didn't I say that everything in the world is knowledgeable. ”

"As long as you recognize one thing, Brother Shiyuan's cleverness, I'm afraid it won't be long before it will be a feat."

"For example, this Zhuge fertilizer, I only do it occasionally, and before I have experimented to find a better one, it can already increase grain production by 50%. If we continue to study along this path, will we be able to double our food production? ”

"Besides, it's just fertilizer."

"If we want to increase food production, it's not just a matter of fertilizer, can we start with the seeds of crops?"

"Your Pang family is a big family in Jingxiang, and there is a lot of land in the family, and I think Brother Shiyuan has seen all kinds of crops."

"But Brother Shiyuan has noticed that in the same field, there are always a few ears of rice, which are thicker than other ears of rice, and the grains on the ears of rice are fuller than those on other ears of rice, and the number of grains is so many tens or hundreds of grains?"

Pang Tong's head, this phenomenon, Pang Tong, who played in his own field as a child, has naturally seen it. At that time, it was just curiosity, but when I heard Zhuge Liang say this, Pang Tong was so smart that he instantly understood the key to doubling grain production.
