Chapter 273: Sooner or Later, Secrets Will Be Leaked
After last year's bumper harvest, Echigo began to implement the high-temperature composting method in various parts of the country since the beginning of autumn last year, and the farmers in Omi are still in charge of how to compost it.
Secondly, it is necessary to dig a large pit with a diameter of about one and a half and a half and two meters and seven, and the depth is about one meter, the slope of the pit should be steep enough to become an open type, and then smear the triple soil around the pit and beat it with wood and stone, this process takes about a few days, and at the same time dig several vertical and horizontal trenches at the bottom of the pit to extend to the surface, and these trenches are ventilation channels that must be retained.
After doing this, bundle up with corn stalks and put them into the trench, be sure to plug all the grooves, and then spread a layer of crop straw, branches and leaves in the pit, so that the mixed solution of about two stones is spread, mainly composed of 2 stones of livestock manure, 5 stones of river water, and half stone animal bones, fish bones, chicken and duck eggshells, bird droppings, etc., and the top of the mixed solution should be covered with a layer of plant ash.
The next operation is roughly the same, that is, a layer of straw or dead branches and rotten leaves, then a layer of mixed solution, and finally a layer of plant ash, and so on and so on, piled higher and higher until it is about 1 meter above the ground, at this time forming the shape of a hill, and then covered with straw mats to facilitate compost high-temperature fermentation.
At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the temperature from time to time, by pulling the corn stalks away, reaching out to the airway to feel the temperature, and heating the water according to the temperature, on average, three to four buckets of water per family four times a month, generally speaking, it is necessary to heat the water, because it snows in the market in the winter of Echigo. Summer and autumn are also rainy. Supplemental hot water is more conducive to maintaining high temperature fermentation in the pit.
It can be used after about two months of rotting. This method is not original to Kira Yoshitoki, he also knows what is probably going on, as soon as it comes to the specific, his eyes are blackened, this is a professional plan modified by agricultural experts from the Ming Kingdom in Shiga County, the traditional compost has been in use in the Ming Dynasty for thousands of years, he gave a new idea and immediately got a positive response, compared to the simple compost he proposed that day, this kind of semi-pit compost is several grades more professional.
The farmers of Echigo certainly did not understand what this meant. They also don't need to understand that all the work is done by the Kira family's triple house, including digging pits, ramming earth, digging trenches, accumulating, etc., and the farmers only need to prepare all kinds of straw and branches, mixed solutions, plant ash, straw mats, etc.
This kind of large and small storage yards appeared in the fields of Echigo, and the farmers did not understand the principle of this thing, and when it came to spring sowing, there were officials who personally went to the field to guide the first base fertilizer, the second sowing of the seed fertilizer, and the approximate time of the third top dressing.
In the end, the Samurai of Echigo succumbed to the drive of profit and offered their oaths to Kira Yoshitoki and Nagao Toraki, and Kira Yoshitoki's request was simple. It's not enough to swear to the gods and Buddhas you believe in, you must be under the Ashikaga Nichi two royal flags. Make one more vows to the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman.
The Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman is the patron saint of the samurai, and it is also the god of the clan of Genji, which has great significance for the samurai, and the meaning of swearing to the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman is extraordinary, many people are reluctant, but even if you are reluctant, there is no way, the first oath has been offered, at this time it is difficult to ride a tiger, if you don't swear that you have bad intentions, then you can crusade against it, who will admit that you have bad intentions? In the end, I can only suffer a dumb loss.
How to say that, there is justice in the world, there is always a reward for paying, I don't know if there is justice in the world, but there must be a return for paying, if you don't repay me, I will force you to return, this is a major feature of the samurai, the oath is offered, and the Kira family is also happy to take out a variety of new grains for everyone.
At the same time, he also stressed that these seeds can only be used by themselves, and must not flow out of Echigo abroad, and that they should weigh in their hearts what the consequences of circulating will be, and if something really happens, whoever circulates it will find someone to settle accounts, and when the grain is fined, don't blame the lord of the country for not being merciful.
Echigo's samurai family has a long face now, who dares to say whether those peasants will sell themselves, everyone finally kowtowed and swore in exchange for the seeds, if they were bought by the greedy retainers or farmers with only a little money, and finally ended up being punished for not being a cheat.
First of all, everyone agreed that although the new grain was good, it was not as good as rice, and the samurai were the ones who ate rice, so how could there be samurai who gnawed potatoes and corn, and secondly, everyone didn't want the stupid peasants to leak the grain, so why not pick out some safe land to plant in their own direct collars? It is better to plant less than not to plant, and you can try the situation by planting for a year.
This method was widely accepted by the samurai, and many people were still a little unsure of the new grain, although pumpkin gruel, corn rice, baked potatoes and potato beet soup were also delicious, but many samurai still stubbornly adhered to their own traditions, rice dumplings and pickled radishes are king, this is a thousand years of inertia, no one can change it in a short time.
The samurai took the seeds and left, and when they were sown in the spring, they would be scattered into the vast land of Echigo, and gradually take root and sprout into bunches of grain full of fruits, and the long-tailed tiger hee snuggled into his arms and smiled and asked, "Why do you want to give these guys seeds?" Could it be that His Highness is really not afraid of the martial artists who will leak them to other realms? ”
Looking at the girl's beautiful face, Kira Yoshishi gently scratched her little nose and said with a smile: "It's because sooner or later it's going to leak out, so I have to give it to them early!" ”
In terms of the aesthetics of this era, the appearance of Tiger Ji with apricot eyes and nose, cherry lips and pink cheeks is definitely not a beauty, and the definition of a beautiful man in ancient times is not much different, but the difference in the definition of beauty is really too big, and the aesthetics from the Heian era are really wonderful, especially when encountering a woman like Tiger Ji who does not apply powder, she is regarded as an outlier.
There are a lot of different women like Echigo.,The girl who looks very beautiful when he is Yoshishi is looked down upon by the young samurai of Echigo.,The reason why many people love Long-tailed Tiger Ji is because of their appetite for this group of violent men.,The women's samurai also have a bullish teacher.,The super powerful brother is simply a big backer.,It's this group of muscle-filled Echigo samurai who knows who this soft girl will send it.。
"Huh? Why is that? The two voices asked in unison. One is the tiger queen who snuggled in Kira Yoshitoki's arms. The other is Chiyo Mochizuki who hides on the other side and eats fruit. The two large loli looked at each other at the same time, and an ominous aura filled the air.
A certain big cat bared out its cute tiger teeth and frightened: "Stupid! Why would you say the same thing as me! ”
"Not really! It's clear that Chiyo Girl said it first! A certain stupid Lori shook her double ponytail hanging down her shoulders and swallowed the delicious food in her mouth and retorted vaguely.
"Obviously you're learning from me!"
"Nope! Chiyo is a little bit faster than Sister Torahime! It's true! ”
"Nonsense! Who is slower than you! You must have heard it wrong! ”
"Chiyo Nu swears with eleven years of ninja experience, it is indeed Chiyo Nu who is a little faster!"
"No road race! No Road Race! The two little loli glared at each other and became angry like two clucking hens.
The two Lori quarreled for a while and got together for a while, I don't know how many times, Kira Yoshishi expressed complete distraction for this, but subconsciously replied: "If I'm not mistaken, Chiyo should only be eleven years old, right?" ”
"Huh? Was this also discovered by His Highness? Your Highness cares so much about Chiyo Girl! Chiyo girl is so impressed! "Stupid Lori's cheeks are red like a kettle of boiling water. Covering his cheeks, he closed his eyes shyly, shook his little head slightly, and shook his double ponytails.
"Damn! Your Highness is not allowed to look at it! A certain tiger tooth Lori was angry, like a big cat with fried hair, and while covering the eyes of Kira Yoshitoki, she stared at the Chiyo Mochizuki with apricot eyes wide open: "Stupid! Don't make such strange moves! It's bothersome for others to see! ”
In the end, these two Loli didn't figure out why they leaked the secret of the seed.,The two of them don't care much about this kind of thing.,Military affairs or something has nothing to do with this kind of Lori.,The most Huya Mei has to do is sit upright on the main seat of the assessment meeting and don't move.,And then everyone finished talking and was dragged away by Kira Yoshiki.。 As for what was said in the middle, I don't remember at all.
A girl who falls in love is always blind, and she trusts Kira Yoshitoki and won't lie to her. I believe that he can do everything well, and I believe that the brother he said will definitely recover, although he has studied economic and political affairs, he has all been left behind, this is the idea of the long-tailed tiger queen.
Kira Yoshitoki did not live up to his expectations, and the development of Echigo in the past few months in charge was very smooth, and the various decrees were carried out in an orderly manner, and the leaders of Honjo Minoru and Naoe Mitsuna had to lament that the gap in ability was too great, and the idiom that the art industry specialized was also widely spread in Echigo's high-level samurai circles.
On March 5th, after a busy winter, including the seven-day rest of the New Year's Day, the members of the executive had to re-energize themselves to face the new official duties, and this was also the first time that Honjo Honjo, Hojo Takahiro, and Kurokawa Kiyomi participated in the assessment meeting as Kira retainers.
However, no one in the hall paid attention to the small movements of the three people, and the Echigo samurai, including Minoru Honjo, Nagao Keishinobu, Nakajo Fujishi, Naoe Mitsuna, Nagao Masaki, Saito Asanobu and others, were all listening attentively to the information that was constantly coming from the hall.
This month's assessment president O Jinghu continues to be absent, this is already the second month of his absence from the evaluation meeting, after nearly half a year of recovery, Nagao Jinghu has been able to walk slowly on crutches, since last year Nagata Tokumoto learned of the existence of the Yuzawa Imperial Office, and also went to the Yuzawa Imperial Office for a field trip, and finally decided to take the Long Tail Jinghu in early February, and the Long Tail Jinglian led two thousand armed forces directly under the Long Tail family to the Yuzawa Imperial Palace for recuperation.
In Nagata's words, this recuperation may last for a long time, a year if conditions allow, and even if it doesn't, it should last for half a year, because several hot springs in Yuzawa Gosho have very good effects on treating wind diseases, provided that you bathe under the guidance of Nagata Tokumoto, otherwise soaking in the hot springs is likely to aggravate the wind disease.
Hosokawa Fujitaka held a statistical report and read aloud: "As of February 25, the spring sowing in the seven counties of Echigo is over, and according to statistics, 2,500 towns of wasteland have been reclaimed in the seven counties this year, mainly in the Joetsu and Chuetsu regions, and it is estimated that about 50,000 towns of wasteland in the seven counties are conducive to direct and indirect development, of which ......"
"Wait? What do you mean by direct and indirect? (To be continued......)
