In spring, when everything recovers and the grass seedlings grow well, the plan of the year lies in spring. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info spring can be said to be the most important season of the year.

The beasts survived the cold winter, began to desperately replenish nutrition, and began to give birth to the next generation. Bees and butterflies are busy among the flowers, foraging for food and spreading pollen for those flowers. It's a peaceful view.

Human beings are also a part of all things, and naturally they will not miss this important time, spring ploughing has begun, no one needs to supervise, what persuasion is nonsense, no need for you to persuade, you don't persuade us to plow? Isn't that waiting to starve to death?

I'm sorry for delaying your time, I know that the spring ploughing season is precious, but I have to gather everyone today, because there is something important about the well-being of the villagers, fathers, and elders in the future. What well-being? For the sake of farming. ’

'Fujian is mountainous, and in the past, everyone burned she, and after planting a piece of land for two or three years, they had to find the next one. Isn't that so. On a mountainous field, a young official was talking, and below him were some old men, each of whom had many years of experience as a farmer.

Everyone had an indifferent and even somewhat dissatisfied expression on their faces, looking at the officials in front of them, foaming at the mouth, and they were silent. They are not very happy, spring ploughing is such an important activity, spring ploughing is not good, the harvest of a year is going to be soaked, but they are actually found by the government, saying that there is a big event about farming.

Joke, they have been farming all their lives, since they were children, they were taken by their father to plant, and their father was taught by their grandfather.

If you really know how to farm, don't come to them at this time, although they are all old, and there is really no shortage of labor at home, but how much can help them. What's more, in the spring ploughing season, if they don't go to the ground, they feel uncomfortable from the heart, and their faces will stink even more.

This will not work, but you know how much it will destroy the earth, and I will test it for you. The young official raised his hand regardless of the indifference of these people in the audience, and the two officials came up with two boxes, which were filled with soil, simulating the appearance of a slope. The difference is that one is bare, and the other has fake grass and fake trees.

The young officer took an iron plate full of holes, and another official lifted a bucket and began to pour water, which was a simulation of rainfall. Young officials began to demonstrate how damaging rain can be to soils that have lost their protection: 'You see, on the one hand, the rain will not flow, but it will wash away a lot of fertility from the soil. It's useless to fertilize it. ’

What's even more terrible is that, you see, haven't you noticed that the soil that has been washed down will flow into the river and cause the irrigation ditches to be blocked, and even worse, if the river is blocked, and there will be a flash flood, the people along the river will suffer. These words made the hearts of these old peasants feel terrified, the flash flood is still small, and there have even been tragic incidents where heavy rain caused the mountain to go and the rolling mud flow buried an entire village.

Look around, and here is the fruit of burning a few years ago, and now it has been abandoned, but only grass grows, and no trees can grow. The grass is also very poorly shaded, and in a few years, someone will burn it, and the soil will only be worse, not better. In the long run, it will only destroy the whole mountain. ’

In the longer run, there are no trees on the mountain, and there is no water at all, and you think that the rivers on the mountain, where the water comes from, are all rain from the sky, which falls to the ground, and is absorbed by the soil, and then it is slowly released in the future, and it becomes a stream, and then it becomes a big river, and if all the trees on the mountain are cut down, there will be a flash flood when it rains, and if it doesn't rain, everyone will die of thirst. ’

There's no way to show them, how can you show them how rainwater seeps into the ground, becomes groundwater, and finally seeps out and becomes a river? But fortunately, in these years, the officials' speeches are still very prestigious, and the old farmers believe it.

They looked at each other, and the last old peasant spoke, 'But, Mingfu, if we don't cultivate like this, we will all starve to death.' The Ming Mansion is an honorific title for the local parents, but all of a sudden, the old farmer can't think of what to call this official.

However, in the future, they will find it a good name. I even feel that such an official is better than a local parent official.

Today, the official has gathered everyone here, not only to preach to the villagers and elders that this is terrible, but of course there is a solution. As soon as these words came out, the old peasants who listened quietly at the bottom all looked slightly moved, revealing a little expectation.

However, the official was not in a hurry to show any new methods, but let people bring a cow in, which did not disappoint these old farmers, and each half-big doll came to the side, led a cow, which was nothing, and then the half-big doll began to plow the field, and the more they ploughed, the bigger their eyes were, and this half-big doll, one person finished plowing half an acre of land, and he only put the plow in the back, and wanted to turn, and with his hand, the ox obediently turned, and the back sowed, covered with soil, and everything was completed by the yak.

This yak is much more complicated, there is a different undulating awl behind it, and every other distance, a deep hole will be made, and then a few seeds, will fall into the hole, and then it will automatically cover the soil. This made many farmers widen their eyes, if there is such a set of technology, spring plowing will be less labor-saving in the future.

Won't that hurt the cows?' There are still people who have doubts, the cow is obedient when it is worn with a nose ring, but for the farmer, the cow needs to be cherished and cared for.

The official explained, 'Of course, this requires skill, but it is not complicated, the cow will only hurt for a while, and this official will teach you.' ’

Look, with this yak, it will be much easier to plow the fields in the future. The official pointed to the slightly more complicated yak that had been transformed, and the Jiangdong yak had already appeared in the Tang Dynasty. This is a very good yak, but it is not the best to use.

Li Chen improved into Quyuan Yak, which is the re-evolution of Jiangdong Yak, which is more flexible than Zhiyuan Jiangdong Yak, not only can be yak soil, but also can turn the soil, and can be deeply cultivated. This is the final completion form of Chinese yak, which should have appeared in the Song Dynasty, and was advanced by Li Chen by about a hundred years.

Not only that, in Li Chen's hands, he instructed the Royal Research Institute to make improvements to the yak, so that the yak can automatically complete the sowing and soil covering. This is another big step forward.

In addition to the yak, there is even a harvester, a simple one, a huge sickle, and when harvesting in the future, there will be no need to bend over, hug the back, and harvest hard.

The huge scythe, with an elongated grip and a crossbar on the handle, could be held in the hand, and with a single swing of the crop was harvested.

This is the European farmer, the scythe used for harvesting, that is, everyone is familiar with the god of death, and he holds the scythe in his hand. It was not to create the image of the god of death and harvest life, so he was specially given a big scythe, but the Europeans, and the scythe used for harvesting was so big.

Although the material is larger than that of a normal sickle, the handle is long, and the blade is also long, it is much easier and less labor-saving. Even, after Li Chen's improvement, the price was reduced to about the same as an ordinary sickle. Because Li Chen asked the Royal Research Institute to design a machine for making log poles.

This machine can be adjusted and operated simply, originally to make crossbow arrows to get arrow shafts, and the threads can also be used to make other cylindrical objects.

To complicate matters, there are automatic harvesters, which are also powered by cattle, which can quickly harvest and fold a cluster of crops.

This yak is good, but it's more expensive than the Jiangdong yak. An old farmer said that many of them can't even afford yaks, not to mention that yaks are better than yaks.

'Mo Huang, this official still has a way. The young officer had long thought of this question, and then he showed a good thing, the sapper shovel. In China, shovels have appeared very early, but sapper shovels, this kind of shoveling, shoveling people's heads are good, but only in modern times.

Generally, farmers who can't afford to buy yaks and have no cattle use hoes, and their efficiency is not half a star worse than that of shovels. Therefore, the old farmers who have tried it out are very satisfied. I can't afford a plow, but this one is not bad, and it is much less labor-saving than a hoe.

In addition, a series of agricultural tools are also displayed, which dazzle the old farmers, and they need a lot of agricultural tools, some simple, some complicated. The only thing in common is that it can make the farmer less labor-intensive.

Finally, the young farmer judge revealed that the biggest display of the day was a hillside field, and the farmer had uncovered the straw mat to reveal a terraced field.

The development of hillside land in the Tang Dynasty was still very primitive, and the grass and trees were directly cut down with a sheaf knife, set on fire, and the grass and trees were fertilized with ashes. This is called "burning", "fire farming", and "fire field". Such fields will be abandoned after two or three years of ploughing. There's no way to keep the fertility alive. As soon as it rains, it will be washed away by the rain, and this field will not last for a few years.

However, if you don't plow, you can't do anything, and if you don't plow, you will starve to death. Because of the large increase in population, there are few fields and many people, so they can only ask for land in the mountains. Not to mention, Mindi was originally a land with many mountains and few fields.

However, all this changed with the advent of terraces. All the old peasants' eyes widened, and they hated to buckle out the eye bubbles and see clearly.

The hillside land is made out of a flat land, and then a circle is built around with stones, and the stone gaps can be plugged with various fillers to prevent water leakage, so that the disadvantages of developing the hillside land are gone, the water and soil do not flow out, the river will not be silted, and the rain can also store water.

What is in between? An old farmer touched it carefully, and in the middle of the stone, it was still a stone to the touch, but how could it be so smooth? On the outside, it looks like a pile of stones of different sizes, but on the inside, it's smooth and there is no concern about leakage.

'It's cement. The agricultural judge smiled and looked at their shocked looks, completely forgetting that he was also very surprised at the beginning.

"Mingfu, the things you show are all very good, but we don't need them." After demonstrating for a long time, the terraced fields, a bunch of new farm tools, I was very excited to see, but an old farmer said that the things were very good, and we couldn't afford to use them. Everyone else also silently praised it in their hearts, this thing is good, but we can't afford to use it.

'Rest assured. The young official patted his chest and reassured, "The court has already thought of a way." You can buy in groups. ''Group buying? All of them asked in unison.

Alas, this has no income, and it owes a lot of money. For traditional farmers, debt is very terrible, often borrowed a sum, and will not be able to pay it off in the future, and finally it is to take the field to offset it, and the whole family becomes a tenant farmer, "What kind of cotton is planted, and it is really unreasonable not to grow grain..."

What do you say, don't you plant anything, the government has exempted taxes for three years, and even given living expenses, so it's great that you will plant it in vain this year, not to mention that the kind judge said that the good income of this cotton plant is better than growing grain.

Even the land was issued by the imperial court. ’

And Ah, I didn't know at the beginning, who saw that it was possible to pay in installments and buy in groups, so he patted his thigh and bought it. The farmer was followed by his wife, who also chattered, and she followed the farmer and chattered, and her hands were not idle, and as she went, she used the tools of her hand to break up the large pieces of the soil.

Moreover, it is good to have this farm tool, and Xiaobao can also spend more time studying. There is also this green seedling money, it is not that you want to pay it back at once, and the interest is low, so you are not afraid of rolling profits. After speaking, his wife heard something and looked up to the left, "Xiao Zhao, what are you doing in such a hurry, this farm tool has not yet arrived at your home." ’

I'm just going to come and see, come and see. On the side, a young man clasped his hands and looked at the new yak with salivation.

'I bought it so hard, and I ended up lending it to others. The farmer muttered to the farmer, and his wife gave him a hammer, 'What do you say, won't anyone else borrow you?' ’

Besides, it's also a social gain. Hearing his wife say this, the farmer stopped talking, and hurried to drive the oxen, and finished plowing the last few acres of land.

'Come, here's the notice board, I sign it, and I take the farm tools and the cow away, and trouble the old brother to take it to the next one. The young Xiao Zhao excitedly and cautiously led the cattle away, and the one who had been plowing the field got up from the field, washed his feet covered with mud, took the notice board, and went to the next family.

This kind of situation, in this piece of the Central Plains, is repeated, here is the newly recovered land of the Tang Dynasty, Anle Prefecture, spring is the same, descended here, the farmer went to deliver the notice board, the wife stood in the field, satisfied to look at the field that belonged to their family, the heart is infinitely satisfied, thinking of the son who received a new book, such as the treasure, she believes that the future will be better.

If you have a wife with good hopes, you won't find out that an ugly thing in the world is happening. A young man stumbled down a path, looking frightened and embarrassed. I don't know how long it took, he finally fell to the ground weakly, unable to walk anymore, but he still struggled to move on, but he fell into the boundless darkness weakly. (To be continued.) )
