Chapter 599 Agricultural Reform

The memories in her mind seemed to be full of holes, and all she remembered was that she was in Elson City to help Master Khadgar manage the laboratory, but she didn't know exactly what the project was, when it came, or what happened to her. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Seeing her like this, Akasha's first thing to do was to find out in her consciousness whether the other nine mages had a similar situation, but the information she received made her breathe a sigh of relief - it is estimated that the distance is relatively far away, and the other high elf mages have not been affected, and they are still the same as before. As for Sylvia, who was not in a stable state in front of her, she immediately made a decision in her heart and said, "Elson City was attacked before, and I am the team in charge of the rescue-"

"When is it Elson's turn for humans to come to the rescue?"

Sylvia had a disdainful look on her face, but Akasha was cooperative, "I'm human... Mage, can use spells. ”

When she was studying the high elf language, she couldn't help but understand some customs and discourse habits through reading, so when she wanted to say that she was a "priest", she changed her words in time - there was no religion in humans at that time, and there was no such thing as a "priest" at all.

As if to prove her identity, Akasha raised her hand and directly released the "hypnotism" - this spell was almost ineffective for a prepared mage, Sylvia was also ready to resist when she realized Akasha's intentions, but her spell could not succeed at all, and there was an irresistible sense of obedience in her heart, as if a voice in her head was making her honestly stand still and accept the spell...

So Sylvia rolled her eyes without any suspense and fell asleep on the spot.

The crooked body was held up by Akasha, and cold sweat was running down her forehead at this time, but the little priest didn't bother to wipe it at all - gently put Sylvia on the ground, she once again released the "hypnotism" to ensure that the other party fell into a deep sleep, and then turned around and rushed out of the laboratory, running towards the Pachar Magic Tower where Camilla was...

"Prime Minister, what do you mean... Is there a problem with the way Everta farms the land now?"

The Prince's Court in Hollier City has been going on for three days, from the earliest strategic direction to the details of the agricultural reform that are now being prepared, and the lords feel that they have learned more in these two days than in the previous ten years combined.

"There is a problem with the two-nursery system, and it is not a small problem. ”

Roddy took out a piece of parchment and pointed to the illustration on it: "The two-garden system is to cultivate one piece of land and the other piece of land is idle, and the two fields are cultivated in turns, right? ”

To be honest, he had not carefully studied the technical level of agriculture in the Karen Kingdom before, but now after a systematic investigation, he found that these people starving to death every year really can't blame the bad rain or the lack of hard work -- Luo Di, as a modern man, Academician Yuan has become a reality that he has made rice with a yield of more than 3,000 jin per mu, and now this kind of primitive two-garden system in the Middle Ages is really nearly a thousand years behind -- you must know that the Chinese have their own "talent for growing vegetables" is not casually said, when the two-garden system began to become popular in Europe, it disappeared after the Spring and Autumn in China. As for the later farming methods and the application of fertilizers, they are really higher than a group of Europeans.

Although Luo Di was not an agricultural graduate, he also spent time in the countryside as a child. Deep ploughing and fertilization, as long as it is a reliable land, where is it still the turn to rely on "fallow" to restore nutrients...

"The land is deprived of nutrients, we can fertilize it, we can cultivate other crops to supplement it, and it is a waste to do nothing for a year, but the fact is that all the farmland in Evta has been in this pattern so far, and we can't even be self-sufficient when the year is bad. ”

This theory made the lords dumbfounded, after all, the big nobles who could enter the cabinet were not straw bales, and the most basic cultivation methods in the territory were always known, but because of this, they couldn't understand why Luo Di thought that the "two-garden system" was stupid, and they didn't know what he meant by "fertilization" - after all, in this era when everyone defecated in the open, no one even realized the importance of manure to the land, and the peasants in Chinese history were eager to pick up all the dung they could collect home, who would throw it out and waste it?

In fact, this is also the limitation of the times.

As long as you have received compulsory education, you will understand the effect of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium on plants in the field, and this basic principle cannot be explained by the general term "land nutrients". Luo Di, who went to college, is also an intellectual, even if he hasn't taken the exam for many years, he still remembers this. So before coming here for the meeting, he had already implemented a series of initiatives in Elson City, opening up "experimental fields" to make comparisons, and came up with a reliable answer: "The new farming methods I have promoted have been tested in Elson. By comparison, it can obtain at least 70% more food than the two-nursery system, and at the same time, it does not have to waste a lot of land by fallowing. The new farming method will also be different, and wheat will need to be mixed with other crops to balance the soil nutrients - the result of many sets of experiments, which is true and credible. ”

The lords will be skeptical, but they will also have expectations in their hearts. After all, Roddy has never been a goalless person, and he has always done what he promises, and he can give full marks in terms of credibility so far.

"Of course, in the future, these things will be taken care of by the newly established 'Ministry of Agriculture', and the lords will only need to be responsible for carrying them out. At the same time, the 'Ministry of Agriculture' will recruit a group of Wood Elves as advisors in the future, and their spells will be the key to ensuring Evta's food production in the future - so it is important to maintain the respect they deserve, do you understand?"

This made the lords stupid, they obviously didn't know the role of "druids" and "jungle guards" as advanced Wood Elf professionals in promoting agriculture, but apparently Roddy had already made plans - there must be many similar characters in the Brudi Village Chief and the Wood Elf Village, and various means were used, and Roddy still didn't believe that he couldn't dig up Wood Elves who were willing to come out to help.

I don't want to have a yield of 3,000 catties per mu for the time being, but if I can double the output, I don't have to work in vain.

"Okay, let's talk about agriculture first, and then I'm going to talk about the planning of the 'railway system'. ”

Roddy continued to throw out a concept that made the lord and even Sally dizzy - in today's world when horse-drawn carriages are the only means of land transportation, there are only a handful of "roads" in the entire Cullen Kingdom that can have hard roads, and the "road system" does not know if it can put together a decent network, let alone a "railway system".

Even Sally had never seen a transport ship, so she was intrigued by what Roddy was saying, and she pointed to the drawing that Roddy pulled out later, and stretched out her hand, "This is what you call 'transport'? )
