Chapter 320: New Technology in a Great Agricultural Country

"......" Hua Qinghui really didn't expect Yun Mengchen to say such ungraceful words, and her face was difficult to see at the moment: "Does His Royal Highness King Chen think that Qinghui said something wrong, those are not the rumors of Qinghui, Qinghui just said what everyone is saying, why does His Royal Highness King Chen want to hurt people so much!"

Yun Mengchen's indifferent expression Ni Xiang her: "It turns out that you also know that bad words hurt people, so you still talk about those topics that only women in the market will discuss in front of this king?" It's just that they're ignorant, don't you understand these truths as a princess?! ”

“......”

At this time, a servant girl suddenly rushed out and knelt in front of Yun Mengchen and said urgently: "His Royal Highness King Chen, my princess doesn't mean that, because she knows that His Royal Highness King Chen cares about the affairs of the displaced people, and she has been busy with the fundraising of the displaced people day and night in the past few days, and it is all for His Royal Highness King Chen!" You can't misunderstand my princess. ”

"Presumptuous! When the prince speaks, how can you allow a little maid to intervene here! ”

Yan Jiaxin watched the atmosphere become more and more stagnant, and couldn't help but stand up and walk in front of the servant girl who was frightened by Qi Xiao's roar, and helped her up with her own hands.

The maid looked at the others before nodding at Yan Jiaxin: "Back to the princess, the slave is called Cui'er."

"And how long have you been following your princess?"

"......" The maid hesitated and looked at Hua Qinghui before replying: "Princess, the slave has been following the princess since she was a child, and she has been following the princess for decades."

Yan Jiaxin suddenly realized: "Oh, it's been so long?" She grabbed Cui'er's hand again: "Then you must know your princess very well?"

Everyone had a question mark on their faces, and they didn't understand what Yan Jiaxin wanted to say, especially Cui'er, who was grabbed by her, and her heart was really empty..."... Be... Yes, Princess. ”

"Then you talk about it, these" Yan Jiaxin pointed to the silver: "Your princess should have worked hard and put a lot of thought into it, right?"

The maidservant knelt in front of her again, a little excited, and said with some grievances for Hua Qinghui: "Yes, princess, my princess has not rested for several days in order to raise these, and she has already dealt with it now, so she almost arranged the matter."

But after my princess heard about the princess, she decided to hand over the silver to the princess to deal with, she said, if these are handed over to the princess, she is very relieved, and the silver can really be used on those homeless people. ”

"Hmm." Yan Jiaxin nodded: "Your princess really has a heart, no wonder those people in the city like her so much, it really makes me sigh to myself as a woman!"

When Cui'er heard this, she thought that she was indirectly saying that the rumors outside had something to do with her princess, and her emotions were even more excited: "Princess, can you not listen to those rumors outside, my princess has not said a bad word about you, and she usually has to be cautious about her words and deeds.

Today, today is just because Cui'er feels so sorry for my princess. These days, I am not only tired and thin, but also almost tired and sick, you look at the entire Yongling Kingdom, who can have my princess who does not care about paying, let alone reciprocate? ”

"Cui'er, don't say it, let's go back, don't delay Princess Chen's departure." Before Hua Qinghui finished speaking, she stumbled delicately, and her maid hurriedly rushed over to help her, and said distressedly: "Princess, why are you doing this?"

Hua Qinghui helped her forehead, and only after feeling better did she shake her head: "I'm fine, as long as the problem of displaced people can be properly handled, the princess's efforts these days will not be in vain." She said and looked at Yun Mengchen: "Fang Cai, it was Qinghui who was confused, and said something that was out of character, and asked His Royal Highness King Chen and the princess to forgive Qinghui."

"Princess, where is this?" Yan Jiaxin walked over: "The princess cares about the people like this, which is the blessing of the people of my Yongling Kingdom." That's all, can you ask the princess to arrange it on your behalf? ”

Hua Qinghui's expression paused imperceptibly, and soon looked at her with a slightly sad expression: "Why?" Is the princess disgusted with Qinghui and everyone's intentions? ”

Yan Jiaxin shook her head and explained: "I didn't mean that, don't misunderstand, princess." It's just that you also know, my husband" she hugged Yun Mengchen's arm again: "As for him, he never cares about political affairs, and I go to that place in the western suburbs, and I don't need to go with this silver, so I want to ask the princess for a favor."

"......" Hua Qinghui really underestimated this Yan Jiaxin, and the topic went around in a big circle, but as a result, she was rounded back again. His Royal Highness King Chen doesn't take care of political affairs? It seems that Yan Jiaxin doesn't know a lot of things? It turns out that he is not so important in Yun Mengchen's heart!

This idea appeared in Hua Qinghui's heart, and it really soothed the grievances she had just suffered. Then she said refreshingly: "As long as it is for the people to no longer suffer from the war, Qinghui will do her best, even if she pays more, she will be happy!"

"Good!" Yan Jiaxin applauded her: "The princess is really refreshing!" Then I'll be blunt. ”

Hua Qinghui nodded, not worried at all that Yan Jiaxin would make any excessive demands on her.

Yan Jiaxin looked at her and thought for a while: "I heard that Yongle Country was mainly agriculture in the past, and there were even gardens planted with winter onions and leeks, covered with roofs, burning fires day and night, and waiting for the warmth to be born." Is that right? ”

In fact, this method of growing out-of-season vegetables and fruits has been around since ancient times. In winter, the garden is planted with green onions, leeks and other vegetables that are originally available in spring, covered with a porch house, lit a fire from morning to night, and heated to make the vegetables grow.

Now that it is winter, since she wants to grow crops in the western suburbs, after knowing the geological problems, the next step is to need certain planting techniques! There are very few crops that can be planted in this season, and they are not necessarily suitable for the strange climatic conditions in the western suburbs, so using some greenhouse technology to plant out of season may have unexpected harvests!

Hua Qinghui listened to her words, and nodded without hesitation: "I did hear that there was, and it was a matter that was prevalent in the royal family at first, but later because some ministers thought that this was a thing from time to time, it hurt people, and it was not suitable to be worshipped, but it was illegal food, so they canceled this way of planting."

Yan Jiaxin nodded, in ancient times, they really liked to veto some novelties they had never seen, they would not feel that this was the progress of human civilization, but that it was against the laws of survival of God. Therefore, their actions will hinder the development of society, otherwise, the progress of human civilization should be faster!

In fact, this kind of fire like theirs is a flameless burning method, the purpose is to warm the room and facilitate the growth of vegetables. Those ministers called out-of-season vegetables "illegal food" and could not be eaten, obviously this was a big fool, and their real purpose was to persuade the royal family not to be too extravagant, and they were also worried that it would disrupt this heavenly cycle!

In fact, this kind of fire is only one of the warming methods, in the early ancient times, more of the use of natural heat sources to produce out-of-season fruits and vegetables, the Tang Dynasty for the court to plant out-of-season fruits and vegetables "inner garden", is through the introduction of hot spring hot water, to create a temperature suitable for the growth of vegetables. Tang poet Wang Jian's poem "Early Spring in Front of the Palace": "The inner garden has a warm soup water, and the melon has been entered in mid-February", which is what he said.

But these are not the point, the point is that as far as she knows, in addition to the first-class natural geographical environment and suitable climate and temperature difference in this Yongle country, the tools for the crops produced in their country are the best in the country, especially a kind of film cloth bag used to store vegetables and fruits for winter in winter, which is comparable to the current plastic wrap!

As we all know, everything is good in this Yongle country, the only bad thing is that they often fight, and once they fight, the people will not be able to grow food well. Sometimes the food that has been planted is destroyed by the war. There is no food, wars and famines, and the people are miserable! Therefore, for a long time, the people of Yongle Kingdom have a psychology of taking precautions in advance.

They would harvest some of the ripe crops and then store them in a cellar where they would hide in the midst of the war and come out when the war was over. And because they had already stocked food, they didn't have to worry about starving to death in the cellar.

It's just that they found that although the grain was piled up in the cellar, when the sudden war came, when they hid in the cellar, the vegetables and fruits were already rotten, except for some dry foods, which were relatively easy to store, those vegetables could rarely be stored for a few days.

Therefore, after that, they had to use pickling to extend the storage time of some vegetables and fruits. It's just that they sometimes want to eat some fresh food, so they think that these vegetables and fruits can be left for a long time. So, from the beginning, some people were busy with this idea that sounded unrealistic.

At first, the simplest and most straightforward thing they could think of was to use the ice method. Because in the winter when there is war, they will get some snow in the cellar to chill some of the beasts they have hunted before, and find that in this way, the food is easier to store for a long time and will not perish easily.

This method of icing has been imitated and used by many people for a time. However, it doesn't snow every winter, and fighting doesn't happen very often. And snow melts eventually, so although this method is effective, it is not something they can use whenever they want. Even if it is used, it is limited in time.

Slowly, someone began to think of another way. Moreover, a large agricultural country like Yongle Country has no shortage of agricultural wizards. After unremitting efforts, someone has finally developed a kind of cloth bag that can store vegetables and fruits all winter without spoiling.
