The thatched pit movement in Phuket City unfolded vigorously.

First of all, Elle conquered the residents of the city with her beauty and temperament, they always thought that only Nun Bina was a goddess, but after seeing Elle, there was one more goddess in their minds.

Secondly, Luo Lan spared no expense to mobilize the beggars in the city and let them work for a short time, and these people became cleaners and cleaned the outside of Buji City.

Finally, measure the location and build a pit. In addition, fixed garbage dumping and incineration points have been set up to promote hygiene awareness.

These things are easy to say, but they are quite difficult to do, and Luo Lan even enacted a law for this, stipulating that open defecation will be fined.

On the ninth day of the five-month movement of the thatched pit, the church's nun Bina finally returned.

Luo Lan had long been looking forward to it, he knew what he was missing, what he lacked was a way to improve productivity. If productivity cannot be improved, then no matter how good the production relations are, it is impossible for Phuket to leap forward in a short period of time, and the alchemy of this world will be the only way to increase productivity, and it is also the god of industry.

————

In the port of Buji, a rare luxury ship docked, it was a large ship on the land of Hailing Country, full ten meters high, and there were more than thirty sailors on it.

They docked the boat and disembarked Bina and her entourage.

When Luo Lan rode with the guards to greet him, the big ship had already left the port. The sailors under the mast looked at Bina on the shore and did not want to look away for a long time.

If it weren't for Bina, these proud sailors wouldn't have come to Phuket.

Next to Bina, there stood an old man who looked very short. To be precise, a hunched young man.

His temples were white and his skin was dark yellow, but his eyes were bright, staring closely at Luo Lan who came on horseback.

Luo Lan jumped off the horse and looked at him, "Is Your Excellency Mr. Rick?"

The man didn't answer, and in Bina's smile, he rushed to Luo Lan's side with a brisk step and grabbed his shoulder: "Luo Lan, tell me, everything about the ridge cultivation method, I want to know how high the ridge is, how deep the groove is, and how much is the interval between the two!" ”

Rick is insane.

He bumped all the way, riding a horse and riding a boat, and finally saw Luo Lan, and he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart at all.

At this time, he had the impression that the prince of waste wood had become the god of the land.

Luo Lan looked at the large pile of luggage behind Rick, and his eyes were also glowing, the treasure of alchemy!

"Barrett, take Mr. Rick's luggage to the house I specially arranged for Mr. Rick, handle it with care, and don't break it."

Luo Lan turned around and shouted, then looked at the excited Rick, "Mr. Rick, please come with me, let's go to the land, and I'll show you."

"Good!"

Rick couldn't wait, and Nina followed.

The three of them left the port and went straight to a nearby field. The wheat has been harvested, but there are still farmers picking ears of wheat in the fields.

Luo Lan borrowed a stone hoe and cultivated the field with difficulty.

Due to the lack of iron tools, the farmers' tools were too backward, and Luo Lan's palms were ground out and blistered before a groove was reclaimed.

The groove was about ankle deep, and the soil underneath was so hard that it was difficult to dig with Luo Lan's strength.

"It's half as deep as that, but in fact, the ridge cultivation method is to dig up the whole piece of land and then build the ridges and troughs. In this way, the soil is breathable and soft, which is conducive to plant growth. And when irrigating, you only need to drain the water into the trough, and you don't need to sprinkle the whole field with water, wasting manpower and time. ”

Luo Lan explained, and at this time, the nearby farmers all ran over and watched in amazement as Luo Lan dug a groove.

Rick was silent for a long time, and then he fell to his knees on the ground, bowing his head and kissing the soft soil that Luo Lan had dug up.

"Thank you, O God, for allowing me to encounter such advanced planting technology in my lifetime."

Rick started crying again, which was hard to understand. The peasants around whispered, they did not understand the situation, only that the prince had dug a ditch, and then Rick cried.

Luo Lan sighed in his heart, it was really rare that there were such a person in such a backward world, who was still an alchemist.

He let Rick cry and stepped aside to shout, "Come here, all of you." ”

A large group of peasants ran over, and the barefoot children smiled and pulled Luo Lan's beautiful clothes.

The adults hurriedly stopped, but Luo Lan didn't mind, he touched a little girl's head, and then pointed to the hard land and said: "This autumn planting, you must first dig up the land and dig it loose, dig as deep as possible, and then ...... like this."

Luo Lan carefully demonstrated the ridge cultivation method, but the farmers did not understand the reason, and they hated that digging the soil was too wasteful.

This is all due to the lack of iron pots, and the relationship between production tools and productivity cannot be ignored.

"Everyone listens to me, and the obedient will be rewarded with an iron hoe, and the disobedient will not be tax-exempt."

Luo Lan smiled, and the farmers immediately became nervous. Luo Lan smiled, "Just kidding, no tax is collected, no tax is collected." The reward for the iron hoe is real, as long as everyone listens to me".

"Good!"

Cheers erupted all around, and the children chattered around Luo Lan again.

Bina, who was not far away, took off her veil and stared at Luo Lan who was smiling without blinking her big bright eyes.

At this time, Rick stood up, wiped his tears and said, "Bina, this prince is really magical, how did he get better?" Did you teach him? ”

Bina sighed, her little face flushed slightly, "No, I don't know...... By the way, he attaches great importance to alchemy, you can show him your wheat."

Bina said and waved her hand at Luo Lan, who trotted over, and Rick couldn't help but stop him and leave.

Luo Lan did not refuse.

The three of them walked away from the crowd and walked to a field where no one was around.

In Luo Lan's expectant eyes, Rick took out a cloth bag from his arms. It was a dirty cloth bag with a strange stench.

Rick spreads the cloth bag open, revealing the small black particles inside. Countless small grains, the size of a grain of rice, were wrapped in cloth.

"What is this?"

"This is wheat, my own name. It was obtained by baking the feces, furs, and ores of some wild beasts. I don't know what the principle is, it's all made by reading the experience in the book. I found that by pouring wheat into manure or urine, and then fertilizing it, the wheat would grow very, very well. In general, the land harvest is 1,000 liters, and the wheat can be harvested from 5,000 liters to 10,000 liters. If you add the ridge tillage planting method...... Unthinkable! ”

Rick said and became agitated again.

Luo Lan nodded thoughtfully.

This is probably a fertilizer additive similar to Jinkela, which has any chemical composition of NPK, Nb, Cs or something.

In this world, being able to make gold is a kind of magic, and I don't know how many improvements it has taken to have this kind of alchemy.

However, Luo Lan himself can travel through time and space, and it is not surprising that the alchemy here can make low-grade fertilizer additives.

"Mr. Rick, can you make a lot of gold...... Oh no, it's wheat. I'm currently building toilets, so that the manure can be widely used after fermentation, and with your wheat and ridge farming methods, our broken island is about to develop. ”

Luo Lan suppressed his excitement, but Rick was not suppressed, he was more excited than anyone else, "As long as you give me manpower and mountains, and open a mine for me, the wheat produced can fully meet the needs of this island"!

"Well, from now on, you will be my Minister of Agriculture, overseeing the development of agriculture and alchemy. Mr. Rick, I solemnly tell you that you can study all your alchemy, and this will be the holy place for all alchemists! ”
