Indeed, the experiment that the yield of a medium field is much higher than that of a neighboring fertile field is somewhat convincing, and if there is a good field to test, it will certainly be more convincing and more convincing. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Shi Jia looked at the people who had made the bet and said, "It looks like I'm going to save money!" Ha ha! It's just that I wonder if a few of you take our bets seriously? ”

The people who bet with Shi Jia all stood up and said, "I am willing to lose the bet!" Since we lost, of course we are willing to do what we agreed upon! And if you do this, Hou Ye will take advantage of us! It's not you! ”

Shi Jia just smiled after hearing this, and he said, "Okay! There are dozens of you, and if anyone wants to learn, they can learn! At that time, we can compare our new methods to our new farming methods. Or the old method works! Only when there is a comparison can you know the advantages and disadvantages! ”

The reason why Shi Jia did this was to further make people accept his new farming methods, and his promotion was not in a hurry, anyway, Xianbei did not go south for the time being, so he could not be in a hurry. As long as his methods are popularized within these years, and the leap and progress in agriculture will bring him a lot of military rations, and as long as he has military rations, he will be able to recruit more sergeants and have a greater number of soldiers.

As soon as I heard that Shi Jia was going to teach, it was natural for a lot of people to gather, not only those who lost the bet, but other people also wanted to hear it, if it was really useful, they would also use new methods.

Shi Jia patiently explained what his farming method was, which was different from theirs, and it was completely a paddy field rice seed type.

Shi Jia also said that there are deep ploughing methods and set tillage methods for plowing paddy fields, and as for plowing fields, they have their own winch plows and other tools. Of course, tools such as nail rakes, ploughing claws, raking, and rice were also taken out, and the specific use of them was also explained one by one. He also said the gist of "three Laos, three swings, and three digs".

People naturally listened patiently, and at the same time, when they saw Shi Jia's demonstration, they also saw that Shi Jia's agricultural tools were much more advanced than theirs, especially in the paddy fields.

Pei Jing, Wei Ji, and Xue Jin were also watching, although the three of them were not engaged in labor, but it did not prevent them from having a strong interest in it.

However, Pei Jing said the key to the problem, and this key was going to stump Shi Jia: "Shi Gongzi, the old man has something to say bluntly, and the method you said is actually very troublesome, and it is also quite laborious." People are accustomed to the original farming methods, and they know that the new methods can increase the yield per mu, but the real problem is Wenxi, and even the whole world, because of the war and chaos, there are few people on the earth. People don't have to deliberately pursue more per mu, anyway, there is so much land, no one cultivates it, so a lot of waste is abandoned! Therefore, if you have a good method, maybe there will be very few people who are willing to do it. After all, people are afraid of trouble, and they don't want to engage in something they are not familiar with. You say, don't you? ”

Wei Ji also said: "Yes! Anyway, there is a lot of land, and the important thing is that there is not enough labor! It doesn't make much sense if the yield per mu is large! If the population increases, or the land becomes more expensive, then the yield per mu increases, and the significance for people is extraordinary! ”

Xue Jin also said: "Yes! As long as there is war, it will be very difficult to solve this problem! Population is very important! ”

In the age of cold weapons, population is, of course, the first thing that matters! You can't do anything without people! Otherwise, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, his first priority was to increase the population and absolutely put an end to the phenomenon of not marrying.

The government can allow men and women who are not married to sign up for the yamen, and then the yamen will draw lots to decide who will marry whom. Moreover, the age of marriage is lowered, and as a result, the population is increasing rapidly. This element is flattened, and the governance of the prosperous era in the future will be logical.

So Shi Jia's method is a good method, but the problem is that it also needs labor! Although Shi Jia also released the recruitment of homeless people, and now there are more than 20,000 homeless people in Wenxi, but the more than 20,000 homeless people are still a drop in the bucket, there are too few people! It's really too little!

Shi Jia also gave them land so that they could cultivate and live and work in peace and contentment. But there is still a question in people's minds, how long can such a day last?

Although the Central Plains is now under the command of Zhao Zhao, what about the new emperor? and the powerful are there, I am afraid that this peaceful day will not last long and will be disrupted again.

If he had been a wise monarch in the past, he had been able to calm people and stabilize people's hearts, and his methods would still be able to allow people to continue their lives in peace and contentment. He also recruited displaced people many times and distributed land for people to produce with peace of mind.

As for Shi Hu? I'm afraid that he is a rampant expropriation! At that time, there were more displaced people, and people had to leave their homes because of the harsh government.

As soon as he thought of this, Shi Jia understood that there would still be a chance to recruit displaced people in the future, but would it be too obvious for him to do this? So as to lead to Shi Hu's attack? Qian Zhao's troops are strong, but they can't resist it. If this population problem is not solved, it will be a difficult word! It's really hard!

Shi Jia lowered his head and was silent, contemplative, Pei Jing and the others looked at him, of course they knew that Shi Jia was making trouble for the population.

So Wei Ji said: "Shi Gongzi, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, don't worry too much!" There will always be a solution! ”

Shi Jia just smiled and said, "Yes! There will always be a solution! Ha ha! But what he thought of was that there were slaves in Shi Hu, but this slave could really be released? Once released, the base of the population is considerable!

But this is related to the interests of the Xiongnu nobles, they will not let go easily, even if they exchange money, but Kui An will also say to Shi Hu, at that time it was difficult for himself.

Shi Jia sighed, going around and around, he really couldn't get around this dead end! What can be done about this?

Let's take it slowly, and now we can get this good farming method out first, and it would be good if more people came to learn it and spread it to the whole country. Follow the established steps step by step!

At this time, Zhao Long was very proud, because he had previously said that he was a hairless little hair, and the yield of the fields he planted would not be higher than him, and Zhao Long was extremely angry at that time! After all, Zhao Long is a child, he loves to fight, and he will never admit defeat easily.

Now, the yield of Zhao Long's fields is higher than that of the other party, and of course the other party wants to admit defeat, so Zhao Long has a feeling of raising his eyebrows.

Shi Jia smiled and said, "I said that this senior brother, in line with the principle that the capable are teachers, you will teach them how to use new methods to farm in the future!" How's it going? ”
