Chapter 21 Training Plans
Early the next morning, Cao Pi rode a horse and went to Juntun with Dianman, and when he arrived at the mansion where he played chess with Ren Jun last time, Chen Sanlang looked like he had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Cao Pi, he immediately came up and said: "Son, the paddy field and the Xiannongtan have been placed, but do you want to go and see?" ”
Cao Pi readily agreed, and Chen Sanlang immediately took the lead and went out of the house to take Cao Pi and Dianman to the depths of the military camp. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The scale of this military camp is very large, and there are no less than 20 forging houses, all of which are located on the bank of Yingshui. In addition, there are workshops for making textiles such as armor linings and horse bridles.
There are not too many places to plant in the tun, and they are not growing grain, they are mostly planting mulberry hemp, and the place where the grain is planted is also allocated to Cao Pi's Yingshui bank, to Cao Pi's surprise, the grain in this military tun is only rice, and there are ten acres of land. Chen Sanlang said that the rice planted on the 10 acres of land was supplied to the palace after the harvest, and a small part was kept by himself.
There are five sturdy men plowing the paddy fields, and two of them are driving oxen to carry ploughs and rakes. It's still the first month of the year, and if you plant a crop of rice, it's time to prepare the land. After all, the work of preparing the land needs to be done not only once, but several times to plow the land until it is soft, and the preparation work lasts a long time.
It is a wonder that there are 5 people ploughing the land in two acres of land, not too little, but too much. Ploughing is not too strange for one person to plough ten acres of land during the season of land preparation, and five people to serve two acres of land, plus two oxen, it is definitely a privilege among privileges.
The surrounding tunnong in the land preparation are a little curious to look at this side, but they don't dare to come over to see what is going on, everyone knows that this situation will only appear if Ren Zhonglang opens his mouth, who will Ren Zhonglang be? How can the peasants be qualified to speculate too much.
"Uncle just gave me one ploughing ox, how can there be two now?" Looking at the two ploughing cattle in the field, Cao Pi suddenly remembered.
"Originally, it was a ploughing ox, but early this morning, a young general found me and said that he wanted to send a ploughing ox to the second son." Chen Sanlang replied honestly.
"Young general? Can you leave a surname? ”
"Yes, he told me.... Surname Li"
"The surname is Li." Cao Pi immediately thought of Li Dian, and it seemed that his Danghu Ten Innings had completely conquered him.
Although he knew that Li Dian was good, Cao Pi felt that it was not appropriate to perform too much now, he wanted his own foundation, not to become a potential stock invested by others.
"Childe, the first agricultural altar has also been built, and it is in this paddy field." Chen Sanlang pointed to the center of the paddy field, there was indeed a raised place, which looked like a mound of earth, but Cao Pi knew that it was a hollow cottage built with the rammed earth method, which should belong to the oldest building technology, which existed before the Qin Dynasty. To put it bluntly, it is to use wood as a mold, fill with clay or gray stone, layer by layer with pestle tamping to build, this method is very common with materials, branches, planks, soil, sand and gravel are enough, and there is a certain load-bearing capacity to build, for a first agricultural pottery like shelter from the wind and rain that is not a problem, but the appearance is a little ugly.
But these Cao Pi didn't mind, and said indifferently: "It's built and done, remember that you remember, you have to light a handful of mugwort every day to worship, Boying, the money to buy mugwort depends on you." ”
Dianman immediately responded: "No, tomorrow the servant will send three carts of mugwort." ”
Chen Sanlang shrank his head when he heard this, and the servants of the Sikong Gongzi's family were so arrogant, and one day, I would be the same.
At this time, Chen Sanlang called the five people who worked in the year to Cao Pi and said: "Son, these five people were selected by me, and they are all good at farming, and three of them are from Jingzhou, and they all plant paddy fields at home. ”
At this time, Cao Pi calculated in his heart: "The planting time of this single-season rice is different from place to place, but at the latest it is only a month after the Qingming Festival, and the climate of Yingchuan should be planted around the Qingming Festival. ”
After thinking for a while, Cao Pi suddenly spoke, and instead of saying that there was no one, he asked: "San Lang, you said that the seeds of this rice, who is the best in my Yingchuan territory?" ”
"That's naturally the Chen family and the Zhong family among the four major families in Yingchuan. Of course, our military cantonment is not bad. ”
"In this case, my two acres of land will be divided into three, and the seedlings cultivated by the seeds of the Chen family, the Zhong family and the Juntun family will be planted respectively, and the matter of purchasing seeds will still be handled by Boying."
"No."
"After Boying sends the seeds, you must finish planting the seedlings for me before March." Cao Pi said to Chen Sanlang.
"No!" Chen Sanlang hurriedly agreed.
He has eaten the rice of the Zhong family, although the rice of the Chen family has not been eaten, but I saw it in the rice shop that day, the quality is really good, and the most important thing is that Cao Pi has seen that the rice of the Zhong family is japonica rice, and Juntun is in the same vein, and belongs to the subspecies of rice, and the rice of the Chen family in the rice shop should belong to indica rice, which is another subtype of rice, and the yield of subspecies hybridization can be increased by 30% compared with the inter-class hybrid of varieties, and now the seeds of the Chen family, Zhong family, and Juntun are all subspecies, and the seeds of the Chen family are another subtype of rice. Then after these three seeds are crossed with three lines, the yield will inevitably be higher.
Now the top priority is to teach Chen Sanlang how to fertilize, the fertilization method of super rice is very different from the general rice fertilization method, and the more fatal thing is that hybrid rice needs urea, potassium fertilizer and other organic fertilizers, and now it is absolutely impossible to refine organic fertilizer with high purity, so it is necessary to try to make fertilizer play a certain degree of organic fertilizer under existing conditions, this is a technical work, to teach Chen Sanlang five people, but it is not a simple thing.
"Starting today, I will teach you how to refine fertilizer, and then this year, in addition to working in the paddy fields, you will also refine fertilizer, and when the next year comes, I will teach you a new method of fertilization, and when the time comes, you will use the newly refined fertilizer to cultivate on top of the .........."
"Childe, what is fertilizer?" Chen Sanlang plucked up the courage to ask.
Cao Pi was stunned for a moment, and the word "manure fertilizer field" in Cao Pi's memory suddenly popped up in his mind, which was a word in the book "Xunzi" written during the Warring States Period, and suddenly woke up to the fact that there was no concept of fertilizer at all in these years, and the so-called fertilizer is manure, and manure is fertilizer.
“............. I'll tell you about this later. After finishing speaking, Cao Pi stopped talking and left with Dian Wei, leaving Chen Sanlang and the other five strong men looking at each other, in fact, they didn't understand what the second son wanted to teach them.
