After ten days of recuperation at home, it's time to go to work. On his first day on the job, Xue Lang first went to the field to see the thriving crops, and then transferred to the farm to inspect the farm.

The pig house, chicken house, duck house, goose house, etc. have been built, and the earthworms in the stone trough have been raised according to Xue Lang's instructions. As the temperature gradually rises, the earthworms will grow faster and faster, but there is no such short-term notice.

In this place, there are many sheep raisers, and sheep do not need to be raised, so the large-scale breeding in the farm is pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, and fish ponds.

In the early days, the earthworms were not yet slaughtered, and the materials used were small fish, shrimp and various water snails made when digging the fish pond. Water snail is a lot of parasites, to feed the pig must be dried first, after drying and then crushed into powder, mixed into pig food, can not only supplement protein, but also can supplement calcium, but just after feeding more than ten days, the pig in the pen has changed its appearance.

In order to keep up with the consumption in the farm, after collecting enough earthworms, the military issued a notice again to purchase all kinds of small fish, shrimp and water snails from the society, and two pennies a catty. In the place where the water system is developed in Weizeguan, there are almost no people want small fish, small shrimp, loaches and the like, and now some people are willing to pay money to buy, but the elderly and children go to fish, and they can earn a strong labor income a day.

After the earthworms can be used, Xue Lang also plans to dry and grind the flour before feeding, although this will definitely increase the consumption of earthworms, but it can minimize the danger of parasites and epidemics. The latest and fastest updates

It is to feed the vegetable leaves of the pigs or something, Xue Lang is also to let the cooked before feeding, pigs are easy to grow parasites, cooked food feeding can greatly reduce the harm of parasites.

Wan Siming carried out these things very well according to Xue Lang's instructions. Wan Siming has an advantage, he has the views of Confucianism in this era, he has a good public heart for the country and the people, and he will not make random claims, and he can faithfully implement Xue Lang's various orders and instructions.

"You've done a good job, and the results are better than expected, so let's go and see the fish pond."

Xue Lang praised Wan Siming, and the look on Wan Siming's face was faintly excited. Most of the recent big moves in Wei Zeguan are related to the Xue master in front of him, and looking at the support of Her Royal Highness the princess, you can know that there is a great credit for doing these things well.

When the alien plough was promoted, Wan Siming, who followed the work, was rewarded, this Xue Zhubo never hesitated to divide the credit, as long as he followed him honestly, he never treated him badly.

On the side of the fish pond, after washing and disinfecting the pond according to Xue Lang's instructions, the lotus root seeds have been planted, and the carp and crucian carp are now placed in the fish pond, and the other fish species have not yet been placed before the lotus root grows.

The polyculture of lotus root and fish pays attention to a stocking variety and stocking order, and if it is placed wrongly, it will hurt the lotus root and may lose all its money. Before the lotus root grows a sufficient number of leaves, you can only put plankton-loving fish, such as carp and crucian carp, and absolutely not grass carp, which will eat lotus root sprouts. Wait for 1 to 2 months before releasing the silver carp. Wait for the lotus root to grow for a few months, and then put the grass carp.

Lotus root and stocked fish are all species that like fertilizer water, and they should be often topdressed, and the pond should also be disinfected frequently.

Princess Pingyang specially transferred fifteen families from the Zhuangzi under her name for the farm, all of whom are good at farming, and their character is also practical and capable.

Xue Lang engaged in ecological agriculture in modern times, in addition to hiring special technical personnel to teach him, in order to minimize the use of pesticides and fertilizers, he also gnawed books such as "Qi Min Techniques" and "Heavenly Creations".

The book "Qi Min Yaoshu" was written in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the cultivation technology was similar to that at this time, when Xue Lang pointed out and corrected, what he said was reasonable, otherwise he was a fine skin and tender meat, and at first glance, he was a person with little farming experience, and he could not convince the public.

When everyone heard what he said, an uncle surnamed Zhao in the fifteen families couldn't help but say: "Listening to Master Xue's words, farming is also a science?" ”

Xue Lang said: "Everything in the world, being professional and focused, can be regarded as a science. Farming is the foundation of the country, in fact, it has long been a science, but it is not a system. If we can gather the world's best farmers, sort out a book on agriculture, and print it all over the world, the harvest will definitely increase by at least one percent. ”

Uncle Zhao said with a smile: "Xue Zhubo said that the world is widely printed, the old man doesn't understand, the old man is illiterate, if someone teaches the old man to farm like Xue Zhubo, the old man is still willing to learn, who doesn't want to fight more grain?" ”

Wan Siming interjected: "That's the reason. Illiterate is useless even if you have good books, not to mention, it is not a simple matter to engrave a book, Xue Zhubo said, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do it in my lifetime. ”

Yes, even in modern times, the use of scientific methods for farming has only gradually spread, and a large number of agricultural technicians have gone to the countryside to provide guidance, which is only a matter of recent years. Although the imperial court attached great importance to agriculture, it was impossible to separate agriculture into a separate discipline. The scholars did not need to cultivate by themselves, so naturally they did not need the so-called agricultural books. Moreover, with the current productivity, it is not enough to be able to train a large number of professional agricultural researchers, and the people who have a surplus labor force do not look down on this research.

All of them have a time and social background. And everything that involves the times and social background cannot be changed overnight. No matter how good the policy is, it is not in line with the trend of the times, and there is a price to be paid for chaos.

After a day at the farm, Xue Lang didn't go home until dinner. Jiang Lin silently followed Xue Lang all day, holding his wooden stick, and when he didn't speak, he had almost no sense of existence.

After going home and washing, I waited for the servants to set the meal. Xue Lang smiled: "Are you bored today? At present, I am mainly responsible for these affairs, and there are many people I deal with, and it is very trivial, in fact, as long as I don't go out of the princess's mansion and camp, there will be almost no danger, you can go to train with Her Royal Highness the princess's army, and learn military and political affairs. ”

Jiang Lin said: "It's not boring, it's just that the eldest brother doesn't stick to his identity, no matter who he talks to, he can talk eloquently, and he is not at ease, which is quite different from the people of the time." At present, the corporal clan, when he meets these sergeants and old peasants, his attitude is quite noble, as if he is afraid that saying two more words will defile him. ”

Xue Lang smiled: "On this point, my opinion is different from that of the time. In my opinion, identity is both the most useless thing and the most fundamental thing. ”

"Big brother's words are quite contradictory, very different from what I have read in the book."

Jiang Lin was obviously a studious young man. Since Xue Lang worshipped him, he didn't mind teaching him more, he should learn book knowledge in life, but it was not limited to book knowledge. Books teach you the experience and knowledge of your predecessors, but everyone is different, some people will learn to use it, and some people will learn to use it, which is the biggest essential difference between people.
