Chapter 211: The Hardships of Crossing the River by Feeling the Stones (2)

In fact, there is still food, some seeds are dead, and some of the seeds are thinned, and more or less grain will grow, and they will pull out this grain with great care. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

That's right! At that time, they used to pull out the grain, and they didn't have a sickle, not even a scimitar, but only a pull!

But it's miserable! They planted a large area, but they didn't receive much.

However, the most important thing for people is to think, and as a shadow projected in this world with the mind of the Shennong Emperor in the desolate world, what he lacks most is intelligence and thinking.

Maybe we think that planting is not a difficult task, but it is just the season, drought and flood, as well as weeding and fertilization!

But those who think so have thought that there is a saying that interlacing is like separating mountains, and they used to hunt, but now they have changed to farming.

As for the influence between the season and planting, they imagined, and their ancestors could not have imagined it for ten years, hundreds of years.

In fact, what seems very simple to us, something very ordinary, that is, the distance between that piece of window paper.

But if you don't pierce that window paper, without hearing the sound, can you know that there might be a beautiful woman next door?

It's impossible!

So it can be seen that this piercing a piece of window paper sometimes requires you to see where the window paper is!

If you can't even find the window, let alone the window paper, you might as well stay in the dark room!

That's the difficulty of exploration!

However, after all, there is a person who is born with great wisdom, although it is only a projection, it can be said to be an incarnation.

Shennong, he was sitting motionless in front of that piece of land for a day, looking at those who did not have ears, and those who did not grow full.

He kept thinking, why is that?

Why is there such a difference?

"Learning! The knowledge of this world is in contrast, which is good and bad, is all contrasted.

Shennong saw that the crop that grew alone actually grew a big ear, while those that grew together were thin and almost did not produce an ear.

After such a comparison, it turns out that there are too many things in this way!

So he understood that there is such a knowledge of growing food, that is, crops should not be too close to each other!

That's the contrast! This contrast is the great wisdom of life!

Like I wait to buy some things, this one is three dollars a catty, that one is four dollars a catty, both are the same goods, I should buy these three dollars a catty, I can save a penny!

This is the most intuitive comparison!

Through comparison, Shennong's found the first method of correct planting, the distance between crops should be there, and it should not be crowded!

Later, he found a few grains that lived alone, and these grains also had ears, but these ears were not the same size, some were big and some were small, more and some were less!

Here comes the problem again!

There must be a reason for some of the results, so he took a closer look!

Observation is a prerequisite for comparison, and if you don't have that good observation, you can understand it very carefully.

Only if you have carefully understood it, will you know the advantages and disadvantages of this thing, and only when you know its advantages and disadvantages, can you better compare it with others!

Then choose the best one and follow it, which is the way of nature! ”

Chen Jincai said.

He looked at these grains and compared them one by one, and some places were too wet, and the grain did not grow well.

In some places, it is too dry, and the food does not grow well.

And in some places, there is too much grass, and the grain grows even worse!

And the grain that grows in places that are neither dry nor wet and where there is not much grass is different!

The one that grew in a place where the fire had been burned before was the longest ear that grew the most of all grains!

The most grain plant!

So, he came to the conclusion that after the land was burned, it was best to grow food! ”

After summing it all up, he recorded it all in pictures.

The seeds must be good, be sure to cover them with some soil when you sow them, and it must be spring when you sow them!

And before planting seeds, be sure to burn that piece of mountain with fire!

One is weeding, and the other is that he remembers that the burned land grows the most delicious grain!

However, God always has to joke with them, because what they have done is not enough to teach them, or they have not thought about it enough.

That year, they burned the mountains and farmed the land, and it was really a bumper harvest!

In particular, knowing that after the weeds were removed, the grain could be harvested more, so the old people and children who could not go out to hunt went to the fields to remove the weeds.

Then, when they were about to harvest the grain, they found that they had let the rats help them harvest their grain.

These large ears of grain are also the best food for rats!

At that time, the old people and children, who had worked so hard, went crazy, and they dug up the huge rat holes in the ground to retrieve the food that the rats had hidden in the holes.

By the way, I also killed all the rats that were very huge at that time, skinned and eaten!

The pots hammered out of those stones, as well as those pottery, and the delicious taste of stewing meat and grain together, made people at that time just clap their chests and shout to the sky.

He said that he would also grow this delicious food.

But the heavens were playing a joke on them again, and when they piled up the grain in the cave, it didn't take long for it to sprout!

Even if it doesn't sprout, it's all moldy!

Their harvest has turned into clusters of shoots!

At that time, the clansman who guarded the grain almost had people tied to the altar and burned, but later Shennong released the man.

Saying that this is something that can't be done by man, what does it have to do with him, even if he is killed?

At that time, everyone thought that God did not want them to get these grains, and they said that they would hunt in the future and never grow food again.

But when a child excitedly came to them with a handful of tassels, Shennong was pleasantly surprised to find that the handful of tassels in the child's hand did not sprout or die!

When he found out, he asked the child if he had hung it outside for several days before he had put it in the cave.

When he heard this, Shennong finally understood that there was water in this grain, and it had to be dried before it could be stored.

After understanding this, this is a complete set of farming methods.

From looking at the season, burning the ground, to sowing, then weeding, and finally harvesting.

Finally, it was boiled and eaten in a stone pot or pottery, and the uneaten ones were dried and then found in a cave to store.

That's the whole process!

With this whole set of processes, the human race began to eat a full meal, a full meal!

That's how slash-and-burn farming in the history of the human race came about!

How difficult it was for Shennong and the ancestors to find out all this!
