Chapter 79 Vigorously develop agriculture

Everyone looked at Han Lin'er in confusion, and then looked at each other again, not understanding what this "Plan A" was.

Even Liu Futong asked Du Zundao next to him, thinking that Du Zundao should be well-informed, but Du Zundao also shook his head and whispered: "I don't know what the emperor said, I haven't even heard it." ”

At this time, Han Lin'er couldn't help but smile when she saw everyone in the audience looking at her in surprise, and said in her heart: "You definitely don't know this!" Don't guess, this is the name of a famous movie in the 21st century, but I won't tell you about this movie at this time, otherwise I would really be considered insane by you. Today I am talking about the great cause that I have set out. ”

Immediately, Han Lin'er smiled slightly, "Zhong Aiqing don't be surprised, you just need to remember that there is such a name, and don't ask where it came from." ”

"Your Ministers understand." Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't say what you shouldn't say, this is in that non-information era, this way is also communication, because this is an era of absolute monarchy, everything is centered on the emperor, with the emperor as the starting point of everything, what the emperor says is right is the inviolability of the Holy Spirit.

So the curious Sheng Wenyu asked: "Can the emperor tell us what the content of this "Plan A" is!" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, listen to what Zheng and you have to say."

Instantly, everyone in the audience became focused, and they all wanted to know what this so-called plan was.

"This plan is that when we look at the situation in the world, it is already chaotic, and many forces have risen up to divide one side, causing the world to be torn apart today. However, in the future, we will definitely enter a period of war again, and all forces are eyeing us, so we must be fully prepared for war. But do you know what the war is fighting now? ”

Han Lin'er's question made everyone in the audience fall into deep thought, because none of them could say what they were fighting today.

Just like in the 21st century, the current war is about money, which requires you and money, and you can invade other countries at any time, it should be any one*, and any fighter plane will cost billions, so as long as you have more money, you can fight as you like.

It's just that for the end of the Yuan Dynasty, that era of cold weapons, there were many people, as long as you have enough soldiers and horses, you have an absolute advantage, but have you ever thought about what so many people live on.

For Liu Futong, Du Zundao, etc., although they have been on the battlefield for many years, they can't tell what they are fighting for.

Immediately, Han Lin'er said solemnly: "Now I rely on food to fight the war, because when you have hundreds of thousands or even millions of soldiers, it means that these people do not have time to work and grow crops, that is to say, when you only have the old and weak and sick left at home, to produce food, then how much food will be enough for them to hand in." So I think the first thing we did when we founded the country was to increase our grain production, so that the people could hand in more food, and we would have more food for war. ”

As soon as Han Lin'er said this, Liu Futong, Sheng Wenyu and the others instantly understood, but they all understood this, but because they really had no way to increase the output of grain, they were just thinking about it.

At this time, Du Zundao asked: "Your Majesty, we all know what you said, but we don't know how to increase the yield of this grain, so we have not dared to implement it." ”

"I see, you already know the reason for this. It's good to know, I don't need to explain too much, so you can talk about why you can't try it out. ”

Du Zundao then said: "Every summer is when the rice in the city is vigorous, everyone knows that the growth of this rice needs water, but in the summer, sometimes it rains for a month or even two months without rain, resulting in many rice missing the growth period and stopping growth." Sometimes, there are sudden storms and rains, and the same flood occurs, resulting in rice production can not be produced as scheduled, but rice is the staple food of our wait, once the rice production is reduced, it means that a large part of our food is gone, which leads to the increase of taxes and the hardship of life for the people. ”

"Lord Du is right, but for these floods and droughts are just a trivial matter, as long as we build a reservoir to store the amount of water during heavy rains, and when the drought comes, we will call on whoever in the pool to alleviate the drought. What I'm going to talk about in a few days is how to increase yields with plenty of water and make it easy for farmers to do their jobs. Han Lin'er said confidently.

"At this time, I don't know what the emperor has to do, I'm willing to listen to it." Liu Futong said.

"After the past few days, I have learned about the farmers in the city of Bozhou, most of them are concentrated, and the farmers who have farmland to grow crops are also concentrated.

At this time, Du Zundao, Sheng Wenyu and others in the audience became more and more interested the more they listened.

"That is to say, we wait for everyone to do it when we plant rice, and we can help others after doing our own, and then we can specially select personnel to carry out later maintenance, remove pesticides, weeds, and even irrigate rice, which is not only conducive to saving labor, but also allows rice to grow healthily under the care of a special person, so that the yield will naturally increase. It is also possible to train full-time personnel to specially teach farmers the skills of rice planting, which can better ensure the yield. ”

Everyone was deeply attracted by what Han Lin'er said, and no one said anything, and then Han Lin'er finished speaking, but there was still no one who said anything, at this time Han Lin'er looked at them and asked, "Is there something wrong with what you said?" I don't think you've said anything. Han Lin'er said with a smile.

Immediately, everyone reacted and said to each other: "The emperor's plan is clever, if we could have thought of this earlier, our current military strength would have been super strong." ”

So Du Zundao asked: "Can the emperor have a specific decision on implementation, and we can start implementing this plan immediately." ”

"The decision is yes, but Zheng still wants to hear your opinions, it's good."

"Okay, we will obey the order, according to Weichen's opinion, we can also change the problem of the people paying taxes, because now many people have eaten the last meal without the next meal, and they have to run around for their own food all day long, which is a little too much. In addition, we can create a large profit and still the goods are controlled by the steward, so that we can attract a large number of foreign merchants, and we can also speed up the earning of money. ”

At this time, Han Lin'er nodded and smiled slightly.
