Liu Bowen said that he would not go directly to Luoyang to seek refuge with Liu Bian, but would pretend to be a business traveler, travel all the way, and experience the changes under Liu Bian's rule along the way. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Liu Bowen knows his identity, he is a relative of the Han family, and Liu Bi is the most lacking in this kind of talent! An outsider is an outsider after all, and in the end, only the clan can be relied upon, Liu Bowen knows that if he goes to seek refuge in Liu Wei, he will definitely be reused.

Since it will be reused, of course Liu Bowen must be familiar with the political system of Liu Bian's side, this year, Liu Bian has been committed to transforming the Second Department of Commerce and Agriculture, which Liu Bowen has heard of. And the merchants and farmers are closest to the people, and Liu Bowen can only go to see the pros and cons in person to see the pros and cons, so as to pinpoint the disadvantages and better serve Liu Bian.

Liu Bowen is currently located in the eastern part of Nanyang, a border county town called Wuyang, and he did not rush to the county government to open a business permit, but after finding a residence, he took Xiao Qiao and Pei Jun to visit the county seat.

When he came, Liu Bowen once sighed that a border county in Nanyang is worth Anhui County, an important town in the south of the Lujiang River. Although Lujiang has just settled down, Nanyang has not been calm for a long time, and the comparison between the two is enough to know which is stronger and which is weaker.

In the county seat of Nanyang, shops everywhere have begun to sell Taishi chairs, ceramics and other objects. With the question of the Taishi chair, correspondingly, some carpenters studied the table according to the height. There is no need for Liu Wei's exchange, with the wisdom of the ancient people, these furniture closely related to chairs also came into being.

The two sisters of Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao can be said to have opened their eyes, and they have escaped from the hands of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, and the faces of the two sisters have been free of sorrow in the past few days, like birds that have escaped from the cage and have been free for a long time.

Liu Bowen didn't buy furniture like Taishi chair and ceramics, but he also bought a lot of novel objects for Xiao Qiao. After walking around the city for a while, Liu Bowen rushed out of the city with a few people, and Liu Bowen wanted to see the changes in agriculture.

At this time, it was already mid-October 197, and according to the habit of planting crops in the world, it has always been southern rice and northern wheat. Nanyang is located in the central part of the country, but there are many tributaries of the Yangtze River, but it is also mainly planted with rice. The rice harvest was in September, but when Liu Bowen led the people to the nearby fields, he saw that the people were in full swing to cultivate the fields.

"Look at this, are the people going to plant wheat?" Seeing that the fields were full of people cultivating land, Pei Jun was surprised.

"It's wheat season, what's wrong?" Da Qiao wondered when he heard this.

"There are rice roots in the land that your people have cultivated, which means that these fields have not been harvesting rice for a long time, and now it is no problem to grow wheat. But are they busy? If the planting is delayed, not only will the maturity of the wheat be delayed, but the rice planting in the coming year will inevitably be delayed! "Big and Little Qiao are everyone's best girls, and they don't understand these truths, so Pei Jun patiently explained.

"But I see that the people have planted it? It shouldn't delay planting rice next year, right? Da Qiao pointed to the ridges divided between the fields and wondered.

Pei Jun's face was stunned, yes, the people have almost planted wheat now, as if his worries are superfluous, right? But from the time the rice was harvested to the wheat field was reclaimed, in less than two months, how did they do it? And Pei Jun thinks that even if this wheat can be harvested next year, the earliest harvest will be in mid-May, and at that time the rice planting will begin, are the people busy?

Since Nanyang mainly grows rice, the people insist on planting a season of wheat after the rice harvest, which is a good idea, but the time in the middle is too tight. For example, now, planting wheat after the rice harvest, if it is delayed later, even if it is planted, it will not have much effect, depending on the situation, this season is catching up, but next year's wheat harvest is planting rice, there is no time to stagger at all, what should be good?

Doesn't that mean? Will the people not be able to grow rice next year?

"Since the people are doing this, there must be a solution, let's go and ask!" Obviously, Liu Bowen also saw Pei Jun's worries, and led a few people to walk towards a few people who were ready to go home after finishing their work and carrying hoes.

"A few please." Liu Bowen stopped the people, arched his hand to the people and asked: "A few fellow villagers, Nanyang has always planted rice, I don't know how you planted wheat, aren't you afraid of delaying the harvest and not getting the harvest of both?"

"Haha!" The farmer laughed when he heard this, obviously not the first time he had encountered a foreigner asking such a question, so he put down his hoe and said, "You see, this is a newly developed farm tool developed by His Majesty, and now the whole smoking people are using it." Then there are the curved ploughs and the ploughing oxen, and with these things, it is not a problem to grow a season of wheat in winter. We are here on the border, and it is a little late for the government to help here, and it has been several days since the other Dacheng was planted, but we have almost planted it here! ”

The farmer explained with a smile, and Liu Bowen looked at the hoe that the farmer put down, and was very surprised, which was the hoe that Liu Wei exchanged. Hearing that there is a new type of curved plough and a large number of ploughing cattle, Liu Bowen was puzzled: "Ploughing cattle? Where do ploughing cattle come from? ”

"Exchanged with Ran Min of Hetao, these months, there are often ploughing cattle transported over, I heard that for this foreign cavalry went south, but was defeated by General Yang and Ran Min of Hetao, passed here, said what kind of fire ox formation was used, the cavalry of the Han Dynasty did not move, and the foreign cavalry was killed by the fire ox array. Now we are here for ten miles and a cow, how can there be no end to this land. I only hate that there are too few fields, and now that there is an extra crop of wheat, I am afraid that I will be able to eat every day next year. The farmer rubbed his palms together and looked forward to the future.

"Fire Bull Formation? This formation is not easy to use, Ran Min can be used to defeat the Mongolian iron cavalry, but he is also a good general! Liu Bowen didn't know about it yet, and he pondered when he heard it.

Pei Jun on the side couldn't bear the doubts in his heart for a long time, and asked: "Fellow, your wheat planting is catching up, but what to do if you plant rice next year, you have to plant rice before the wheat harvest, although you have more rice in the previous season, but you have lost next year's rice, and the gains outweigh the losses."

The people shook their heads again and again, "Where is that?" Do you know "Qi Min's Technique"? Mr. Jia Siyun wrote about agriculture, His Majesty and Mr. Jia Siqian studied the seedling raising method last year, and tested it in Nanyang, just plant rice seeds in a piece of the sky, and transplant it after the seedlings are completed, so that there will be no delay! Although we haven't seen it, in the experimental fields in Wancheng, many people have seen that the rice grown by the seedling raising method is better than what we directly sowed. ”

"And this kind of thing? In this way, Nanyang can not only harvest one season of rice, but also one season of wheat, and double the amount of grain, which is really ......" Pei Jun didn't know how to describe the surprise in his heart.

At the beginning of this year, Jizhou can be said to have gained very little, Liu Wei launched a business war again, and now I heard that Jizhou's soldiers and horses are borrowed to eat, some go down to the river to grill fish, and some eat mulberries, not to mention how pitiful. And under his command of Liu Xuan, he is also living a tight life, and starvation is a common thing.

But on the other hand, under the rule of Liu Wei, not to mention Guotai Min'an, grain planting has actually increased from one season to two seasons, which is to double the output. Not only will the people not go hungry, but there will also be a large surplus of grain, and there will be nothing to see in three or five years, but after a long time, the Son of Heaven will consume and kill other princes by virtue of this advantage.

The big and small Qiao in the rear were very surprised when they heard that Nanyang rice and wheat were planted alternately throughout the year, and they heard that this was Liu Wei's masterpiece, and their admiration for him was beyond words for a while. After talking with the farmer for most of the day, Liu Bowen learned a lot about new farming methods and new farm tools. In the end, after learning that these things were made by Jia Siqian and Liu Wei, Liu Bowen admired both of them very much.

It can increase grain production and turn one season into two seasons, so that more people can live, which is a good thing for thousands of years!

Liu Bowen then said goodbye and left, and the next day he went to the county government to buy a business certificate, and once again learned about the operation of some institutions of the Ministry of Commerce. The next day, he set off on the road again, and Liu Bowen's itinerary was, Wancheng, Wudang, Chang'an, Luoyang.

Wancheng is the capital of Nanyang, so I have to go to see it, and Wudang is even more famous. Since the establishment of Wudang Academy the year before last, it has attracted students from Nanyang, Yingchuan and Jingzhou to study.

If Yingchuan Academy is said to be Yingchuan Academy, and Jingshan Academy is located in Jingzhou, why do they all come to Wudang Academy to gather?

I won't say much about this place in Wudang, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and it is really a blessed land, compared to Yingchuan Academy, Jingshan Academy is better, I don't know how much. Liu Wei spent a lot of money to build, its scale is no less than Luoyang Academy, Chang'an Academy, and it is built on the famous mountain, than Chang'an, Luoyang Academy is more attractive.

Now that Wudang Academy has been built for less than a year, it has been comparable to the scale of Chang'an Academy and Luoyang Academy.

The main thing is the division! Weighing the pros and cons of an academy, it is natural to judge it by the faculty, Xun Shuang, the founder of Yingchuan Academy, left and joined Wudang Academy, taking root in Wudang County and taking away the heritage of Yingchuan. Xun Shuang, Xun Chen, and Xun Yan are now teachers of Wudang Academy, and Xun Shuang is the dean.

And with Xun Shuang's prestige, he has opened up many celebrities with noble conduct to serve as teachers in Wudang Academy. Of course, this is not the most attractive thing about Wudang Academy, but it is Xie An who is attractive!

The Xie family joined Wudang County last year, Xie An also started as a teacher in Wudang Academy at the request of Liu Wei, and traveled in the mountains and forests with Gao Shi in his spare time, usually teaching students, and his unique teaching method soon became famous everywhere.

Legend has it that Confucius was the first and thirteenth thousandth, and the seventy-second master, and the students led by Xie An were much better than those taught by other teachers, both in virtue and ability. Unconsciously, the fame spread, and some people even compared Xie An with Confucius, saying that his teaching ability was no less than Confucius.

As a result, students from all over the world rushed to Wudang just to listen to Xie An's class, and those who listened to Xie An's class gained a lot, and many people were left behind. With Xie An, Wudang Academy has attracted a large number of students, surpassing the old Yingchuan Academy and Jingshan Academy in one fell swoop.

And the second point is the background, the faculty and fame have been beaten, and Wudang Academy is established in Wudang Mountain, a blessed land with beautiful mountains and rivers, and it is difficult to think of fame. But the real essence is books!

What is the best thing on Liu Bian's side is that there are many books, which is a blessed land for poor students, and Wudang Academy, Liu Bian's order to publish a large number of books as reading materials, just like the library of later generations, students not only learn from teachers, but also learn by themselves, and the foundation of Wudang Academy is books, which attracts a large number of students.

Papermaking and printing are in Liu Bianke's hands, Liu Bian sells paper and books here, but he does not sell technology, so although there are papers and books on the territory of other princes, they are not flooded. As for the academy, it is even more impossible for the academy to replace a large number of paper books with bamboo slips.

And because of Xie An and the book, the fame of Wudang Academy has overshadowed Yingchuan Academy, which makes Liu Bowen very curious, in less than two years, Wudang Academy can surpass a hundred years of Yingchuan Academy, what kind of character is this Xie An?

Liu Bowen was eager to meet Xie An, and by the way, he also took a look at what talents had come out of Wudang Academy. After all, Yingchuan Academy has produced characters such as Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai, and the background is there, if Wudang Academy is famous, but it can't produce any big names, I'm afraid it won't be long before it will be lonely.
