Seeds have so-called activity, although some seeds have a shelf life of two or five years, but Fan Jingjing still thinks that it will not be unexpected to cultivate the seeds early and collect the next batch of seeds when the time comes.

She bought too many seeds, she planted a batch of each seed before, but not all the seeds were planted in the most suitable place, after all, she had just opened up the farm at that time, there was a shortage of manpower, the arable land was narrow, and more importantly, those guards or palace maids, doing farming, were worried about getting their hands dirty or their clothes dirty, and they were not doing very well.

Although when I was engaged in agricultural activities, most of the work was not very clean, and my body was often covered with mud or all kinds of strange things.

Not to mention the dung water, there are a lot of miscanthus grass or ghost needle grass, dog tail grass.

Fan Jingjing went to the side, erected the tap water column, washed his hands, the pillar is very simple made of bamboo, the faucet is also made of bamboo, fortunately, the new craftsman, the craftsmanship is good, so the bamboo faucet will not drip.

As for the source of tap water, the water level is raised by successive water wheels, and then it will be moved to the raised cement water tower, and then the cement bag is covered in the bamboo joint, as long as the water outlet is lower than the water tower, the water can flow out automatically.

In times of drought, having access to tap water is a luxury.

The water of the drought-stricken river has not dried up, and although the water level of Weishui next to Chang'an has dropped, the water is still flowing slowly.

People still have access to water, but it becomes very difficult for people who are far away from water sources to get large quantities of water for irrigation.

Even if there is a waterwheel, it is just to bring water to the adjacent fields to irrigate, large-scale irrigation of the water tank, although the successive dynasties have been developed, but the development of the water tank is to use a lot of manpower, a lot of money.

And you have to know a little bit about hydrology when you develop it, otherwise a waterway will be washed away immediately after it is dug up.

Even if it is not washed away immediately, it can cause unpredictable disasters when the flood comes.

All human changes to nature will lead to things that will not happen in the past, and things that will not happen in the past may be various "natural disasters" for people.

Fan Jingjing wanted to ask Sun Erlang, what was the matter with Mrs. Niu's family, but before her mouth opened, she immediately shut up, the Fan family started in agriculture, and they have not yet learned the truth of coping with retreat, and the farmers also have their own reasons for coping with advance and retreat, but when receiving a character like the Niu family, they instinctively retreated.

Even if the royal children often go shopping in the Fan family manor and get some gadgets back, it does not mean that the etiquette of the Fan family has improved, etiquette is divided into two components, one is to consider others and not make the other party uncomfortable, and the other is to improve their own character and make a simple thing very complicated.

The royal children had point cards, which they did not earn through their labor, but they knew that they had to get them if they wanted to buy things in the Fan family's manor.

And there are all kinds of strange things in the Fan family manor, which are delicious and fun.

Delicious, they want to put it in their stomachs, fun, they want to take it back to their mother.

As for the point card, they find a way to exchange it with their friends.

Even after the wooden point cards were replaced with pieces of paper, the princes and princesses did not lose their interest in collecting cards, they thought that the cards were beautiful in color, and they had points cards in their hands that could buy their favorite food, which made them very excited.

So everything in the palace, except for some contraband, was lost in the same way.

Although Empress Changsun does not pay attention to where everything goes, and there is no shortage of eunuchs and maids in the palace who have unclean hands and feet, Empress Changsun still finds that things are missing.

What is missing is not a major item, but some small baskets, bowls and chopsticks in the palace, some small hand ornaments, and even pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., and most of them are some pottery and porcelain.

Most of these things are products that will be made by the supervisor, and they will not be used for a long time, and most of them will be replaced if they are perishable or worthless.

The precious ones will be received into the treasury of the palace.

Lost things are not very valuable.

Fan Jingjing actually understood Mrs. Niu's purpose.

After all, she was pregnant with the other person's grandson or granddaughter in her belly.

Mrs. Niu didn't ask Fan Jingjing's opinion, every time she came over, she asked Fan Jingjing what kind of dowry she wanted, and she also took some dowry to see.

This made Fan Jingjing, who was not ready to get married, a little headache.

Although she is not ready to get married, Fan Jingjing is still ready to give birth to the ball in her belly.

When people have offspring, they have the energy to work hard, and it is also since she learned that she was pregnant, Fan Jingjing did not get dizzy, but her head was clearer, and many ideas rolled out, so that there would be the current Fan family manor.

"How did Mrs. Niu have time to come and see me? I'll take good care of your grandson. ”

Fan Jingjing knows that people in this era have no way of knowing whether they are born male or female, but in order to please auspiciousness, they generally treat the child in their womb as a man.

"Shi Jin didn't come back, so you refused to change your name to mother? I'll teach him a good lesson when I come back, and I've brought some very beautiful fabrics, just enough to make your dowry, and you can try it." ”

"There won't be a wedding, I have no feelings with Shi Jin......"

"What kind of feelings do husbands and wives need, it's good to be able to get along in harmony, it's all the orders of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the teacher's background is not bad, if you are not satisfied, I will let him change.

The old man wrote that this war could be resolved in two months, and then the division would be able to come back. Now he is a lieutenant. ”

The infantry of the army of the Tang Dynasty is 12,500 people in an army, with battalions under the army, regiments under the battalions, 200 people per regiment, regiments with captains, each regiment has two brigades, each brigade has 100 people, and the brigade has a brigade commander, each brigade has two teams, and the team is divided into five fires, with ten people in the fire, and the fire is set up in chief.

To be honest, the status of the captain is much worse than his father.

Probably thinking that Fan Jingjing would dislike the status of the price point was not high enough, Mrs. Niu specially said:

"When he entered the army, he started as an ordinary firehead army......

What followed was a long list of words from Mrs. Niu, until Mrs. Liu finished speaking, she didn't leave Fan Jingjing a chance to speak, and threw down all kinds of fabrics she brought, and people ran away.

Fan Jingjing didn't have time to say anything if she refused, she was really a little speechless.

There are more than 100 kinds of fabrics brought by Mrs. Niu, and in addition to various silk products, there are many more different fibers made of them.

"And banana cloth? Isn't banana a thing unique to Panyu? ”

Fan Jingjing heard that Mrs. Niu was learning from him, and she also started to start a business, but she didn't expect that she not only sent food, but also asked foreign merchants to bring a lot of fabrics.

Of course, you may make more money by bringing cloth than you do by bringing grain.

Fan Jingjing's approach is not to make money herself, but to let businessmen make money, but Fan Jingjing's approach is to leave people near Fan's manor, attracting people, while Mrs. Niu's approach attracts money.

The fabrics sent by Mrs. Niu were all cut into one-person Tang costumes.

In fact, the clothes Fan Jingjing wears are different from ordinary Tang costumes, the clothes she wears are more like Hanfu than Tang costumes, and she feels that Hanfu can be wrapped tightly, which makes her feel more secure.

And the Hanfu she wears is a modified Hanfu, which doesn't look weird on the outside, but it's also relatively simple to wear.

There is no way to use the cut fabric as a coin, and it cannot be exchanged in the market, and it is a bit of a slap in the face to return it to the Niu family, so Fan Jingjing finally put away the fabric, but he did not collect these fabrics privately, but gave them to the women behind.

In fact, Fan Jingjing has changed to a lot of textile machines, as well as spinning machines, if you want to be original, Fan Jingjing probably can't do it, but the biggest difference between ancient and modern textile machines is actually the power problem.

Fan Jingjing just studied it, and with the help of the blacksmith and the carpenter, she turned these spinning machines and looms into semi-automatic machines.

And give these machines to the women of the Fan family's manor to use and do research.

Two-thirds of their work is spent in production, a third of the time must be spent creating, and every day a little improvement must be proposed, and there will be a reward for improvement.

Rewards are not items they don't need, but points cards with which they can buy what they like or want.

There are more and more things that can be exchanged in the Fan family manor, after all, they can tell Sun Erlang what they are missing, Sun Erlang will report to Fan Jingjing, and then go to purchase, Fan Jingjing will also find some items that should be put into production from the items that everyone needs, and increase profits.

At this stage, Fan Jingjing still asks these unprofessional people to do some simple things, and when the skilled workers come out, maybe she will be able to further make complex figures.

Fan Jingjing especially encourages innovation, a producer with innovation will bring a lot of big profits to the production unit.

This aspect also develops the minds of these people, and makes these people have a greater need for literacy, and they will be very serious when they are literate.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, what are you hiding outside?"

"I heard that Mrs. Niu came to look for you, so I came here to help you break the siege......"

"......" Fan Jingjing was a little speechless, and the speed of solving the siege was too slow! Mrs. Niu had just talked a lot in her living room.

However, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came down to relieve the siege, after all, half of the time was in time. She decided to say thank you.

"Thank you, it's actually fine."

"That's right, after having a child, in fact, you don't have to rush to get married, as Bai Fumei, you can choose slowly in the future, the best thing for you to give birth to is a man, and the official has nothing to say."

Fan Jingjing felt a little weird, Li Chengqian seemed to really don't want her to get married.

"Do you wish I couldn't get married?"

"You are our teacher, you will definitely be distracted if you get married, it's better to stay and grow up with us." Li Chengqian said seriously.

"Oh! That's right. As a teacher, Fan Jingjing is still very happy to hear good words from students. When a student needs a teacher, it is when a teacher feels the most fulfilling.

As for Li Chengqian's intention to pursue her, Fan Jingjing didn't feel it, in the era she lived in, the relationship between men and women was originally relatively close, his psychological age has reached his twenties, although he has become a teenager, for a while, her psychological age has not yet retreated to this point, it is estimated that it will take a while for her to gradually adapt to her new appearance.

However, Datang's expectations for a fifteen-year-old girl are similar to the expectations of a twenty-two-year-old girl in the era in which she lives. After all, the average life expectancy in this era is less than one-third of that of her time.

Even if you don't look at those who died young, just look at the lifespan of the adult population, the words that are rare for seventy years can still be confirmed.

And now Li Chengqian's age is less than ten years old, and in Fan Jingjing's eyes, he still looks like a primary school student, and primary school students are not suitable for early love.

Although in her time, elementary school students had already made several girlfriends. But parents don't necessarily know.

In Fan Jingjing's mind, Li Chengqian is a good student who likes teachers. The more well-behaved and obedient the students are, the more worried they will be about the future of the students as a teacher.

What's more, in the memory of Fan Jingjing's existence, there is indeed a not very good future for Li Chengqian, a butterfly's wings flapping, may trigger a storm in the Pacific Ocean, Fan Jingjing's arrival, it is obvious that the historical trajectory of the Tang Dynasty has changed, at least, with his joining, many people have noticed that this drought is actually a business opportunity. Xungui also needs to support his family, relying on the salary of the imperial court, he can't support a large family, and the feudalism is really a one-person Tao, and it is very normal for chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven.

But no matter how much land they buy, in the event of a major drought, not only will they not be able to make more money, but they will also lose a lot of harvest this year, and if they force the electricity to death, there will be no way to continue to help them farm next year.

You must know that now is the era of manpower shortage, manpower is still very expensive, even if you lose money, you still have to keep it.

Perhaps it was for these reasons that the price of grain in Chang'an would have risen by a thousand times, and finally stabilized at around 10 times.

Some businessmen who sell grain, and some high-ranking officials and nobles behind them, have a little complaint against Fan Jingjing, but with Li Chengqian here, he has already taken the initiative to beat these people.

Although politically, Li Chengqian can't rob his father's job, but these peripheral things, as the prince, he can still do, small fights, and can also increase his prince's fame.

As for the major events related to the imperial court, Li Chengqian could only watch them, and proposed a recital to his father, Li Shimin.

Regarding the prince's recital, even if it is rejected, Li Shimin will still explain it.
