Song Jiu gave Xiao Huangmen and the officials a reward and rode into the palace.

The little yellow door has been bringing Song Jiu to the harem, this is during the day, he can see clearly, Madame Hua Rui made him curious, Song Jiu looked around, and did not see a few eunuchs and palace maids, maybe hot, all stayed in the house. Only a little palace maid is sweeping the yard, she is a teenager, she looks very handsome, and she doesn't stop when she sees him passing by, about Zhao Kuangyin often entertains ministers in the palace, and is used to it.

Turned a few doors and entered a side hall, to be honest, the palace is really not luxurious, far worse than the Forbidden City he saw in later generations. Maybe it will be luxurious in the future, but at that time, the countdown to the destruction of the country will also start to turn.

Zhao Kuangyin was watching the folds inside, and there were two palace ladies behind him with a large fan to fan him cold. But unlike Zhao Kuangyin I saw before, there was a bit of gloom on his face.

Seeing his facial expression, Song Jiu greeted him more carefully, Zhao Kuangyin asked him to sit down, this time it was just the two of them talking, Zhao Kuangyin put down his hand and asked calmly: "I heard that you found an ore that can increase the yield of vegetables and flowers?" ”

"There is such a thing, it is the combination of three ores that can have an effect, and it is necessary to simplify the processing."

"Can it increase food production?"

"Your Majesty, no, the cost of increasing production is too great, the yield per mu of vegetables and flowers is higher than that of grain, and it can be afforded, but food is not good, although it is important to increase production. Even if the mu is increased by half a stone, it will be an astonishing amount if it is enlarged to the whole country. But it's more about cost. Half a stone of rice, less than four buckets, a bucket of rice in the Jianghuai production area in the harvest year is only worth twenty or thirty yuan, the increase in production of two taxes will inevitably increase, officials will also showdown more miscellaneous taxes. The tenant farmers were even more miserable, and the main households had to increase their rents. Half of this will be deducted, and it will only be forty dollars. Wheat millet is cheaper. Hence this cost to be calculated. In fact, Wechen also plans to study ways to increase grain production. If it is studied, its fertilization effect will be better than that of plant ash and manure, and it is indeed possible to increase the yield of half a stone. ”

"Ore too?" In this regard, Zhao Kuangyin was more curious, and ore fertilization subverted his concept of crop fertilization.

"It's an ore, but it requires complex processing."

"This is important," Zhao Kuangyin sat up straight, the people take food as the sky, what kind of glass. None of them are as important as increasing grain production.

"Your Majesty, or the cost of the problem, if it is manufactured in the test laboratory, it can be studied in a year or two, but the cost can not be reduced, if you want to popularize, you must have the ability to make it mass-produced, mass production, the cost must also be greatly reduced. It is not only a technical problem, but also the cost of mining and transportation, which must be reduced in order to achieve popularization. The techniques involved are even more complex. Song Jiu couldn't help but shake his head.

"Can it be done?"

"Can be can, Weichen can't do it alone, at least he has the knowledge to master the physicology of things, which is no less than fifty students of Weichen. We worked together on research, thirty or forty years later. Maybe it will happen. ”

"So long?"

"Your Majesty, this country is your country. In the future, it will also be the kingdom of your children, so how long will it be? In fact, the problem is not very serious now, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and after a few decades, the population will increase, and the population will be sparse, and the yield per mu will increase at that time, which will become important. ”

"It's good that you have this heart, I sent people to the Western Regions, and even sent secret agents to the Khitan, and asked Wu Yue Qianyu to send people to occupy the city to find the rice you mentioned, as well as the kind of cold melon."

"Your Majesty is wise, with cold melons, many saline-alkali sandy lands will be turned into treasures, and Jianghuai rice will also increase production at the same time, no need to study what fertilizer, and the output of half a stone will also increase."

"Whether we can increase production or not, we will know next year. I ask you again, how is the wound medicine researched? ”

"Your Majesty, the wound medicine has not made much progress, it can only be said that it can be made in the test laboratory, not only the wound medicine, but also the burning glass. Wechen still has to study asbestos tiles, plus Hezhou affairs, Wechen is busy, and he is about to recruit new students, and the time is too tight......"

"I won't urge you, when will I study it, and when will I hand it over to the imperial court."

"Wechen obeys."

Song Jiu has some flesh pain, boric acid can not only be used to burn glaze, but also to make medicinal materials, as long as it can be studied on a large scale, it can be made in a small porcelain bottle, in order to study it, it cost more than 1,400 yuan before and after, and it has to be spent, and it is almost a bottomless pit with other research on glaze. But there is no way, if it touches the military, it will not work if it is not handed over. Just like gunpowder, you can also make money, once you make firecrackers, it is not a dumb firecracker in the Song Dynasty, and the sales volume will inevitably be considerable. However, these people are too smart, as long as the front comes out, the back still forces themselves to turn in, and the management technique is forbidden, so it is better to take the initiative to turn it in.

So that after Song Jiu said that Zhancheng rice and watermelon, he didn't want to mention cotton, and he couldn't remember Huang Daopo's drawings, cotton is a kind of weaving, and the textile machine must be studied, so the energy invested will be even more impressive.

"I heard it uses sulfur too?"

Song Jiu was stunned, about what the Yanai said after visiting, and said: "It is mainly saltpeter, sulfur and borax, and some other substances, but after the reaction, it is already different, just like firewood becomes charcoal ash and some gas after burning, which is the product of firewood burning, but charcoal ash does not represent firewood." ”

"I'm also busy during this time, I'll take a look in a few days, that glass is not a luxury, make a paperweight for me, I'm not used to using this jade axe."

Song Jiu smiled dumbly, and looked at his jade axe again, this jade axe was too famous, a rectangular white jade axe, with a glass dragon pattern engraved on it, of course, there was no axe handle. It's not too big, it weighs about a few pounds, and it can definitely be done by knocking out the minister's teeth with it, but it's probably not possible to use it to kill people.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Your Majesty, if Your Majesty must, I will give a few pieces to the second king, but I can't give them directly to Your Majesty, otherwise the scholars and doctors will definitely scold me and harm a useful knowledge. And the minister thinks that this paperweight is better, and the axe represents martial arts and farming. His Majesty used a jade axe to paperweight, and he could often think of emphasizing literature and preparing for military force, attaching importance to agricultural production, so that the country would not be humiliated by nomads on the outside, and the people would not be miserable on the inside. Besides, jade represents a gentleman like jade, which is the real paperweight used by the emperor. But the glass is not good, it is made of sand, although it is expensive sand, but how can it be compared with jade? Please think twice. ”

I was politely rejected by this kid again! Zhao Kuangyin smiled. said: "It's been a hard time, isn't it? ”

"Your Majesty, it's very hard. But half of it was for Weichen himself, and he didn't dare to complain to His Majesty. ”

Zhao Kuangyin smiled again. said: "Song Jiu, you are lazy, but you are also honest, you can turn over these reports." ”

As he spoke, he took a bunch of folds from the head of the case and pushed them to Song Jiu.

Song Jiu opened it and flipped through it, Zhao Kuangyin smiled again, it stands to reason that Song Jiu wants to say that Weichen has no right to look at it, but where does this kid understand, Song Jiu will look at it, and he will continue to review the folds by himself. Song Jiu flipped through it. It's all a twist and turn from the Bashu side.

After Wang Quanbin won Shu, Zhao Kuangyin issued an edict to let the Shu soldiers enter Beijing, what was the intention, Song Jiu was not very clear, it was about to collect a part of the Sichuan soldiers into the forbidden soldiers in the capital, reduce the local armed force, and it would be easy to govern in the future. Zhao Kuangyin prevented accidents, did not let the soldiers complain, and preferably pretended money. Loading money refers to the cost of buying a suit, including fabrics, clothes, eating and drinking along the way, and other living expenses. If Wang Quanbin does it truthfully, then he will not stab the hornet's nest if he does anything wrong in Sichuan.

However, no. He deducted these pretended money, and did not treat these soldiers as human beings, and insulted them all the way. Allow his subordinates to invade and harass. Coupled with the various actions of the Song army before, the Shu soldiers became more and more angry. The last thing was not to enter Beijing, but to arm themselves on the spot. Tui Shu made the whole division a handsome, and it developed into 100,000 people in the blink of an eye. Wang Quanbin saw that something was wrong, and sent Guangxu to appease him, but at this time, few people in the Song army were sober-minded, and after Guangxu arrived, Quan Shixiong was also afraid, the Song army was too strong and wanted to surrender. At this time, Guangxu did one thing, seeing that his daughter was beautiful and the family property was rich, he took Quanshixiong's daughter into a concubine, confiscated the family property, and killed all the people of Quanshixiong, trying to kill people. Quan Shixiong escaped and had no intention of returning.

Cui Yanjin and Gao Yanhui parted ways to conquest, the mourning soldiers were terrible, and the Shu soldiers were not necessarily so weak. As a result, the two were defeated, and Gao Yanhui was killed. As a result, the seventeen states were in chaos, so that the imperial court could not reach it. Wang Quanbin has not yet reflected, he put the rest of the Shu troops in Yizhou Jiacheng, Kang Yanze did not listen to the persuasion, and killed all 27,000 soldiers that night. There was even a colonel who was so mad that he didn't know how Lu Dao took a fancy to a woman's breasts, went up and stripped the woman of her clothes, cut off both breasts, and bled to death.

Looking at the records on these recitals, it was not the Song soldiers, but the Japanese soldiers.

Fortunately, Liu Guangyi and Cao Bin's waterway army did not commit any crimes all the way, and the people did not reject it, so they defeated the general Lu Han under the command of the whole division and joined Wang Renzhen's army, which also became the only bright spot in Bashu.

It's too nonsense! Song Jiu sighed in his heart.

He thought of what Zhu San said when he left, as well as Zhao Kuangyin's unreasonable second edict, as soon as that edict came, it was obvious that Song Jun would come nonsense, and besides, things were so bad that Zhao Kuangyin was not ready to change the commander, Song Jiu couldn't help but think about it in the dark.

It makes sense to think that way, and it is a strategic necessity.

Use plunder and wealth to stimulate the soldiers to work hard, so as to take Bashu in the shortest time. Otherwise, if it drags on for a long time, there will be the Northern Han and Khitan in the north, and the Southern Tang in the south, and there will be accidents. There was turmoil below, but Bashu took it, although it hurt the people, the speed was fast, at least it was taken, and the Northern Han and Khitan did not dare to make any changes. Then slowly quell the chaos and slowly pacify, but Zhao Kuangyin didn't expect the matter to be so big, ten times worse than Hunan.

Does Zhao Kuangyin really have this intention?

Song Jiu didn't dare to ask, but said: "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't understand military affairs, why do you want to show Weichen these recitals?" ”

"You went south and offered some strategies, although half of them are inappropriate, but some of them are also very innovative, for this, many officials and generals in Jinghu praised each other, and some states and counties are also implementing some of your strategies. Bashu was eroded, and after Lu Qing went down, he was helpless. Hearing that you were in Jinghu and his party, I wrote to ask Wang Qing, and Wang Qing admired you, so Lu Qing wrote a note and wanted to invite you to Bashu to have a look. ”

Song Jiu wanted to vomit blood.

Hunan can go, that is basically stable, in fact, it is heat, the miasma and the demonization of the barbarians, the heat goes in winter, it does not exist, the miasma and the barbarians Song Jiu knows, at least they will not demonize. What has become of Bashu now?

Everywhere there was a raging war, a tragic scene. I went to find death by myself, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, you will order Weichen to be cut in half, one thigh to Yizhou, one thigh to Lizhou, one arm to Hezhou, one arm to the test laboratory, and one head to the school. (To be continued......)
