Luo Zheng didn't seem to be angry, waved his hand, and asked, "How much grain and grass do you want to borrow?" ”

Han Song said casually: "It's not much, 20,000 stones are enough!" ”

"Twenty thousand stones, it's really not much!"

Luo Zheng pinched his chin, as if he was pondering.

Han Song smiled proudly, revealing an expression that counted you as acquaintance.

Luo Zheng suddenly asked: "The surname is Han, but I don't know who Han Sui is?" ”

Han Song arched his hand in the south and said proudly: "At the end of the house, the son and nephew of the master." ”

Luo Zheng nodded, "It turned out to be Han Suidi's nephew......"

"Bold, you dare to be disrespectful to my lord?"

Han Song snorted and drank Luo Zheng's words, his face was very unkind.

Luo Zheng laughed angrily and asked, "General Ben has always been very bold, are you really here to congratulate General Ben?" ”

Han Song finally heard that something was wrong, his face sank, and he shouted: "Be bold ......"

Luo Zheng was impatient, and shouted sharply: "Come on, beat this fool out to General Ben." ”

Before Han Song finished speaking, he was a little stunned.

Xu Chu laughed evilly, rushed up with an arrow step, picked up Han Song with one hand like a chicken, and while walking out, he slapped the ground of the pu fan and slapped it the left side of Han Song's face.

In just one moment, Han Song's mouth full of teeth flew out, and half of his face was swollen into a pig's head.

As soon as the terrible scream sounded, it was already carried outside by Xu Chu.

Xun Yu said again and again: "The general is impulsive, such ignorant people, just drive them out, why bother beating, not only will General Xu Chu's hands be dirty, but also will offend Han Sui, there are only disadvantages and no benefits." ”

Luo Zheng said calmly: "I didn't hold back for a while, I was indeed a little impulsive." ”

Xun Yu said again: "Whoever achieves great things can't bear it, and I hope that the general will be cautious." ”

Luo Zheng had already developed an arbitrary character, and he was a little unhappy when he was preached, but then he thought that Xun Yu's straightforward advice was really for himself, and his words were more tactful, and if he couldn't listen to it, he was just stubborn, his brows immediately relaxed, and he said with a wry smile: "General Ben has written it down, and if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, you must endure it." ”

Xun Yu said happily: "The general is magnificent and can accept good words, which is really the luck of the Han Dynasty and the soldiers of the three armies." ”

Luo Zheng waved his hand, "Wen Ruo doesn't have to put gold on General Ben's face!" Wen Ruo was right just now, he beat Han Song, the fool whose brain was kicked by the war horse, and he offended Han Sui, so he had to guard against it! ”

Xun Yu said: "The matter has come to this point, and we can only take precautions." ”

"Alright, let's get busy!"

Luo Zheng stood up and waved his hand.

Everyone hurriedly got up and rushed out.

"Wen Ruo, come here."

Xun Yu just wanted to leave, but was stopped by Luo Zheng, so he had to ask, "What else does the general command?" ”

Luo Zheng said: "Don't ask, General Ben has a few things to show you!" ”

Xun Yu had doubts, so he had to follow Luo Zheng to the inner courtyard.

There are more than a dozen houses in the inner courtyard, all of which have been renovated.

In addition to the daily living of Luo Zheng and a group of female dependents, there are two empty rooms, which are used as warehouses in the inner courtyard.

Luo Zheng took Xun Yu into a warehouse, ready to hand over some things to Xun Yu.

The warehouse is not large, the size of a standard house in this era, about 30 square meters.

More than a dozen sacks were placed on the ground, lined up along the walls.

Luo Zheng took a golden corn cob from a sack, handed it to Xun Yu and said, "Wen Ruo knows this?" ”

Xun Yu took the corn cob, observed it a few times, and said puzzledly: "What is this, why has Yu never seen it?" ”

Luo Zheng said: "This thing is called golden rice, which can be used as food. ”

"Kimmy?"

Xun Yu looked at it carefully and said: "For the grain, but the five grains: beans, wheat, millet, rice, and sorghum." The sages ate all things to lay the root of survival for future generations, but what is this golden rice, Yu has never seen anything in any classics. ”

Luo Zheng said: "The ancestors did not find this thing, as for the specific details, Wen Ruo don't ask, you just need to know that this thing can be eaten as food, and this general told you that the yield of this thing is very high, and the production capacity per mu reaches 2,000 catties." ”

"What?"

Xun Yu lost his voice and said: "The yield per mu is two thousand catties, is the general joking?" ”

Luo Zheng said unhappily: "This kind of thing, how can General Ben joke with you." ”

Xun Yu said in disbelief: "Even if it's not a joke, why is the production capacity per mu reaching 2,000 catties?" ”

No wonder he doesn't believe it, it's scary.

You must know that in this era, the productivity is backward, and the yield is relatively high, when the harvest is good, the production capacity per mu reaches 300 catties, which is already a high yield, which is definitely God's favor.

As for the yield of 2,000 catties per mu, it is really a bit fantastical.

This is like someone suing Sù Luo Zheng, and it is a reason that the production capacity of wheat per mu reaches 5,000 catties.

Luo Zheng didn't bother to explain, and he couldn't explain it clearly, his family was farming, and when the yield was high, one mu of corn could harvest 2,400 catties, but these couldn't be told to sù Xun Yu, so he had to say: "Don't ask other Wenruo, whether it is or not, you will know if you arrange people to plant last season." Anyway, the yield of this thing will definitely not be lower than that of wheat. ”

Xun Yu said: "I have never seen this thing, but I don't know how to cultivate it." ”

Luo Zheng said: "This is not in a hurry, wait for General Ben to tell you slowly." ”

Xun Yu nodded, and looked at the corn cob, the more he looked at it, the more he realized the novelty of this thing.

Luo Zheng grabbed a handful of wheat from another sack and said, "Wen Ruo will take a look at these wheat." ”

Xun Yu grabbed half a handful of wheat from Luo Zheng's hand, put it in front of him and looked at it carefully, and said with surprise: "Where did the general get this wheat from, not only the grain is very full, but also quite large, about eighty percent larger than ordinary wheat grains, and the yield will definitely not be bad." The northwest is bitter and dry, which is suitable for growing wheat. If cultivated properly, the yield will increase by at least 50%. ”

Luo Zhengxin said, this wheat is a high-yield variety more than a thousand years later, the production capacity per mu is 800 catties, and the yield per mu in some places can even reach thousands of catties, which is like the wheat in this era, the yield per mu is already high yield, and said: "Don't ask where Wen Ruo came from, this wheat seed is relatively small, at most two or three acres are planted, and Wen Ruo needs to spend some energy to scatter seeds." ”

Xun Yu nodded again and again and said: "General rest assured, with such good wheat, how can you not scatter and expand the cultivation area." At least three or five years of planting should be scattered, and hundreds or thousands of hectares should be planted before they can be considered as food. ”

Luo Zheng took out another potato from another sack, "Look at this again." ”

Xun Yu took it, turned over the potatoes that were still sticking to the dry soil and turned them over, turned them over and looked at them for a long time, but they didn't recognize what it was, so they had to ask helplessly: "What is this, please tell the general." ”

Luo Zheng laughed and said: "This thing is called potatoes, and when there is no food to eat, you can also eat a full stomach." ”

Xun Yu was surprised, "Where did the general get these things, although Yu didn't dare to admit that he was knowledgeable, but he had also read thousands of scriptures, why had he never seen these crops in any classics?" ”

Luo Zheng said: "These things have not yet been discovered by the world, and naturally there will be no records in the classics. ”

Xun Yu let out an 'oh' thoughtfully, and did not continue to ask.

Luo Zheng said: "The yield of this thing is higher, and the production capacity per mu is 4,000 catties, and it also needs a variety of kinds." ”

"Four thousand catties per mu?"

Xun Yu was a little skeptical, it was not as unbelievable as he heard that the corn production capacity per mu reached 2,000 catties.

After all, this thing is very big, and it is quite heavy, and it is not impossible to have four thousand catties of one acre of land.

Luo Zheng nodded, potatoes are indeed high-yield crops.

The yield per mu is 4,000 catties, which is only the general output.

When Luo Zheng was a teenager and followed his mother to farm, if the potatoes were planted well, the manure was enough, and a few more waters, one acre of land could produce more than 5,000 catties, and some high-yield varieties were heard to produce tens of thousands of catties.

It's just that although this thing can eat a full stomach, it can't tolerate hunger.

It's okay to eat for a day or two, but eat potatoes every day, and people have no strength to work.

Luo Zheng finally gave Xun Yu a sweet potato and said: "This thing is called sweet potato, it is similar to potatoes, it can fill your stomach when you have no food to eat, and the yield is higher than that of potatoes, isn't it a little unbelievable?" ”

Xun Yu exclaimed: "It's really a little unbelievable. ”

Luo Zheng nodded, "Whether it's true or not, wait for the spring to plant the last season, and you will know when the autumn harvest arrives." During the spring ploughing, I personally took people to plant these crops, and Wen Ruo also went to the field to study, and I will leave it all to you to take care of in the future. ”

Xun Yu said happily: "Learning does not distinguish between high and low, the people take food as the sky, know the nature of things, good farming is the way to survive, although Yu was born in Gaomen, but in the past years also went down to the ground to ask the tenants for advice on the way of farming, since the general should learn together." ”

Luo Zheng praised sincerely: "If Wen Ruo doesn't despise farmers as cheap, he is really a true gentleman!" ”

"The general is overrated!"

Xun Yu bowed his hand and said a few words modestly.

Luo Zheng said: "However, once these things are popularized and planted, the impact will be extremely huge, and it will be a great good thing for our army, but if other princes are taught the method of grain planting and cultivation, it will be a great trouble for the general." ”

Xun Yu thought deeply and said: "The general is very worried, the Central Plains is densely populated, if these species are really as productive as the general said, once they reach the Central Plains, then the princes from all walks of life will no longer have to worry about food and grass, and the general will not want to enter the customs in this life." ”

Luo Zheng nodded solemnly and said, "Therefore, General Ben plans to reorganize those people into tuntian soldiers and specialize in farming, not only must they be strictly controlled, but they will not be handed over to the people for cultivation in a short period of time, so as not to be displaced to other land." ”

Xun Yu agreed: "That's exactly how it should be. ”

Then he sighed again, "It is a pity that even if there is such a high-yield thing, it cannot relieve the people from famine." If there is no war in this world, this crop can be promoted, and then there will be no hungry people in the world. ”

Luo Zheng said: "There will be a day. ”

After a pause, he asked again, "By the way, those people didn't make any trouble, right?" ”

Xun Yu said: "The general can rest assured, these people are all young and strong men who are recruited from the homeless people, as long as they have food to eat, they are easy to manage, and they are controlled by the military system, and they are in charge of farming, which is no better." ”

Luo Zheng nodded, "That's good!" ”
