Chapter 113: The Agricultural Revolution (End)
The use of Bard, or the Bard, for advertising was actually a whim decision of the Earl of Don Jr. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
In fact, the production of the columbladder was completed as early as last autumn, before the Count of Don had set off for the war in Dehebas, but the Count of Don did not put it on the table for a long time.
Because Count Don didn't dare.
The year before last, his farm was killed by chicken manure, and the memory of human beings is not so bad. It was precisely because of this incident that he was reminded that everything should not be taken for granted, and that it was necessary to build a few experimental fields first, and only after getting the desired results could it be promoted on a large scale.
The experiment was successful, in fact, quite successful, because the feet of the cocoons were 8 centimeters deep into the ground, and the seeds were scattered by the feet of the cocoons, so that they could be planted very deep in the soil and greatly increased the yields, and the land was cultivated with a columb, as if it had been ploughed with a small plow.
And after a fall, the seeds that begin to germinate will grow better than those that do not have a columbus elsewhere. This is because the cart is a mechanical seed, which is far more uniform than the sowing of the seeds by human hands, and the seeds planted are also the same as the soldiers, standing in a neat queue, which is convenient for ventilation and ventilation, and there is no need to compete for precious water, sunlight, and nutrients.
Now that the experiment has been successful, all that remains is how to promote the cocoon.
Originally, with the current Earl of Little Tang in Desmond, there is no precedent, supreme prestige, even if he forcibly promotes, there will be no trouble, but Count Xiao Tang does not want to do this.
This is a question of both voluntary and involuntary. Forced to promote, Desmond's poor peasants could not turn their minds at all, and in their view, food, and only food, was the only capital to survive. This 'earth monster' made by Lord Earl is convenient, but what is the real effect? Farmers who have no bottom in their hearts will never try it easily.
But now it's different, in this wonderful show of Klein and Bard, there are 10,000 spectators in the audience -- although they can actually see it clearly - but these 500 people will exaggerate what they see to 5,000 people, and 5,000 people will spread it even more exaggerated to 50,000 people.
However, no matter how exaggerated they are, it is not an exaggeration, because the thing of the columbian car can really be called the revolution of agriculture and the savior of the poor!
Because of the cocoon, its work efficiency is really high, only one person and one cow, it can cultivate one hectare, that is, 100 acres of land in one day - if the above data is good, then the use of the cocoon and the use of no cocoon, the efficiency alone is ten times worse! And the harvest is even thirty times worse!
But for some reason, this kind of technology, which is extremely critical and vital to any agricultural civilization, has been pointed out quite late. The ancient Egyptians probably first invented it, but it was later lost. The earliest written record of China is in the second century B.C., and since then it has made its home in China, and the three-legged, four-legged, five-legged and even seven-legged cocoon has emerged one after another, and the family has flourished more and more.
But when it comes to Europe...... You should go ahead with the Industrial Revolution first, at least this is more reliable for you, you know, even in the nineteenth century, the vast fertile land of Eastern Europe was still slash-and-burn, and the Russian aristocracy refused to use this 'modern high technology' on the grounds that 'they would make the serfs lazy and not work!' ’
……
I can't understand it at all, this traditional aristocratic glory or something, Count Xiao Tang said that he couldn't understand it at all. is only obsessed with the glory of the past, and does not want to forge ahead, no wonder such a huge country as Tsarist Russia, the former 'European steamroller', will be quickly eliminated.
"Therefore, it is still science and technology, science and technology are the most important, and mastering science and technology is equivalent to mastering advanced productive forces, and with advanced productive forces, it is possible to develop industry and commerce in other ways."
So, after three days of hard contemplation, Count Tang finally came to this conclusion and made him more attentive to the collection of talents.
However, he was already very concerned about this matter in the first place, and it doesn't matter if he cares about it now. There is no real master in the slave market who will flow out, these guys are all regarded as treasures, how can they be exiled as slaves, and those who are not used by me will be killed, these psychology is what every ruler will have.
"I only hope that Patriarch Olaf can give some strength, and the slaves bought back have the remaining treasures that have been picked."
That's it, Count Don sighed with complete hopelessness, and then prepared to move and eat the ...... in the pot Noodles too.
The Epiphany has passed, and it is now in the midst of Lent, and there is no meat or wine, only bread and water to eat and drink—fortunately, Jesus probably didn't expect such a freshly baked thing as noodles, so the little Count Tang can change his taste once in a while, otherwise he, a man from a big foodie country, will really not be able to stand it!
"Your apple, Lord Count."
"Oh, thank you, Knight Alcoba."
It is still the same daily life as usual, in the peaceful time without war, the large-scale infrastructure activities of winter are once again on the table, the repair of ditches, and the Qinzhi Road, which was not completed last year, and the second phase of the Cork City. Because Count Tang Jr. had been fighting and died in Dehebas before, there was not enough time left this year, and these things were very urgent, which forced Count Don Jr. to run back and forth to inspect the progress and prevent laziness.
Now he was on his way back and forth with the Knights of Alcoba, and since it was almost afternoon, and there was still some distance to reach the castle, they made food on the spot.
I saw that the knight of Alcoba dismounted, took out an iron pot from the bag next to the horse, set up a fire, and then took out the noodles from the cloth bag and boiled them, and then, considering that the little Count Tang liked to eat apples, which was an 'unhealthy' food, the knight of Alcoba roasted one for him.
Count Don took it, said thank you, and then just took a bite of the apple, and tears came down.
He was moved.
Can you not be impressed? Salt is so expensive, but the knight of Olcoba sprinkled enough salt, this bite of the apple, I didn't see the sweetness, but I tasted the saltiness, and if I didn't give water, I would die of salt!
"Ahem...... Knights of Alcoba, how many times have I said this! Don't put any more salt in baked apples! It's so salty! ”
"But Lord Earl, apples are cold food, and even if they are cooked, they will be harmful to the body if they are not salted!"
The knight of Alcoba was stunned, just looking at his mixed bewilderment, doubt, and I am for your good, Count Don almost thought that he was wrong to blame him.
In fact, Count Don Jr. was indeed wrong to blame him...... Because the medieval medical technique of bodily fluid balance believed that the human body was warm and fruits were cold, and people would be unbalanced when they ate fruits, that is, they would get sick...... Therefore, the aristocracy of the Middle Ages did not eat fruits, and fruits were the food of the lower classes. Even if it's an occasional tasting, it's roasted and then sprinkled with hot salt to neutralize it......
All right...... Count Don Jr. took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, it's not the knight's fault, it's the world's fault! Everything is the fault of the world!
World, you are really suffering.
Fortunately, the world has no thoughts and can't speak, otherwise he would have gone crazy and would have perished if he knew that he had inexplicably carried so many black cauldrons.
In order to prevent the world from going crazy and destroying the world, it seems that Count Tang still needs to develop medical skills, at least to correct the idea that the fruit in the knight's brain is unhealthy. You know, although vitamins can also be compensated for by other meats, if you don't eat fruit and only eat meat for a long time, what kind of obesity - considering that the knight's job is to cut people and cut people, this should not be possible. But the head becomes stupid, the brain has a tendon, and the blood is cleared, these things are very possible.
But finding a qualified doctor is not easy! Count Tang's medical class is full of novices who can only bandage, and the doctors in Western Europe and Central Europe are all bird-like. The doctors of Eastern Rome, who lived well in the prosperous land of Eastern Rome, why did you suffer and suffer?
"Forget it...... It's better to cultivate it yourself...... Anyway, so many things have been made, and there is no shortage of this one......"
Count Xiao Tang raised his head at a forty-five degree angle and asked the sky speechlessly, for some reason, he always felt that tears would flow from the corners of his eyes at any time......
