This time is different from last time. Last time, Wu Shangshu and Jin Gonggong came directly to Runzhou without prior notice. Moreover, double cropping rice is not a new thing in the Great Song Dynasty, and the method of increasing the yield of rice and fish farming, Du Jinning did not report it to Zhao Meng, but it was written in the words of "Farming Notes", they did not expect that under Du Jinning's guidance, the yield per mu would increase so much.

The purpose of their visit was just to verify whether the double cropping rice could be successfully planted in Runzhou.

But this time it was different.

Du Jinning came to Runzhou, in addition to planting double-cropping rice, to study new rice varieties, which is the reason why Zhao Yu sent her to Runzhou and did not assign her any specific affairs of the yamen, and it is also the reason why Guan Jiatian, Tao Huahui and others even shared the agricultural affairs and water conservancy within the scope of her duties.

Therefore, the meaning of this time is completely different from the last time.

Guan Jiatian, Tao Huahui and Ma Jian heard that Jin Gonggong and Wu Shangshu had come from Beijing, and on the day of harvest, they also put down everything in the yamen and ran to Du Jinning Zhuangzi to certify the success of the new rice seeds with their own eyes.

has cooperated once, and everyone is already familiar with the way, that is, Song Zhuang is very calm in the face of the eunuchs and second-grade officials in the palace.

Everyone went to the field, it was still Jin Gonggong who pointed to a field for harvesting, and it was also a harvesting team composed of strong men on the Zhuangzi, just like the harvester that Du Jinning saw in modern times, where Jin Gonggong pointed out, they pushed forward side by side, and after a while, the field was only a short stubble and bunches of rice ears lying on the ground.

A few other people picked up the ears of rice on the ground, walked to the threshing machine that had been improved by Du Jinning's guidance to the carpenter, threshed the rice, and jumped into the grain bucket one by one.

These men on Zhuangzi are more energetic than the previous time.

Under the leadership of Du Jinning, they had an unprecedented harvest last year, and every family lived a good life. This year's rice is even better than last year's, and Song Zhuangtou also said that the owner insisted on coming according to the agreement and only collected 20% of the rent, so you can imagine how much they will earn this year. Not to mention that there is a surplus to buy property and get rid of the identity of a tenant farmer, at least the life can be abundant and fed.

Thinking that the future days can be so good, and getting better and better, they have endless strength in their bodies.

In order to express his gratitude to Du Jinning, Song Zhuangtou still admired Du Jinning, and said good things about Du Jinning in front of Gonggong Jin and Wu Shangshu.

Du Jinning blushed when he heard this, and directly interrupted him: "Don't be verbose, go and prepare the scale, and after harvesting this acre of land in a while, you will weigh the seeds." ”

"Yes, yes." Song Zhuangtou now obeys Du Jinning's words.

In fact, it was said that it had been prepared for a long time, and Du Jinning said so. However, Song Zhuangtou still carefully checked the scale, and Wu Shangshu and Jin Gonggong also went to check it to ensure that the weight weighed out for a while was real.

After a while, a small half of an acre of land was harvested, and the millet was threshed, and the first few people in Songzhuang put it aside in baskets, waiting to be weighed.

The officials of the state government department were also waiting beside him. After a while they have to weigh and record the weight of the paddy.

Du Jinning saw that it was almost there, anyway, there were enough manpower, cutting and threshing over there, weighing here, and not delaying each other.

She asked, "Grandpa Jin, Lord Wu, can we start?" ”

"Let's get started." Wu Shangshu stood up from the little vulture.

The people on the Zhuangzi harvest, they can also let the next person sit in the shade with a small vulture, and the weighing is not good, they need to stand in the sun and watch the weighing, so as not to make mistakes.

After all, it is the emperor's difference, and there can be no half-point difference.

Du Jinning gave an order, and the four croppers who were specially drawn out hung the baskets on the scale, and the officials of the household department slid the scales on the weighing rod and quickly read the weight, and the other two officials recorded the data on the paper.

To save time, two scales are performed at the same time. Jin Gonggong and Wu Shangshu supervised a pole to see if the number of officials in the household department was wrong; Guan Jiatian and Tao Huahui supervised the two officials who counted them.

After weighing, the basket full of rice is picked up to the drying floor to be dumped, and then the empty basket is picked back, and the weight of the empty basket is deducted after a while.

One by one, the baskets were put on and weighed, and then put down and picked away; On the other side, harvesting, threshing, and basket loading were carried out at the same time, and the baskets full of rice were sent one by one, everyone was nervous and busy, but in an orderly manner, in less than half an hour, the rice of this acre of field was harvested and weighed.

After the weight of the empty basket was weighed, Wu Shangshu wiped his sweat with a handkerchief and said, "Okay, do the math to see how much yield per mu there is." ”

The two officials suddenly "crackled" and beat the abacus quickly, and after calculating it, they calculated it again. After confirming that the two are correct, the two are added, and finally a data is reported: "Five stones and thirty-nine catties." ”

When everyone heard this, they were shocked and laughed from ear to ear.

Wu Shangshu praised Du Jinning: "Lord Du, it's amazing." This is still Shimoda, if it is Ueda, it must not be more than a stone more than here. ”

Du Jinning nodded: "It should be about the same." ”

At the beginning, Yuan Longping was slowly groping, from the initial hybrid rice research to super hybrid rice, there was a process. And she used the theory directly and went straight to the super hybrid rice. This yield was also expected by her. If chemical fertilizers and pesticides can keep up, the yield will be higher.

This field was improved by water conservancy on the dry land where corn was planted last year, and she is already very satisfied with this kind of yield.

Jin Gonggong and Wu Shangshu came last year, and they also came here to break corn in person, but they also remember this field. Seeing that Du Jinning's water conservancy project has improved dry land into paddy fields, and has achieved such high yields, the two of them are also quite shocked.

"Speaking of which, the corn that our family brought back last year was very fond of the emperor, the queen mother and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." Kim Gong is fair.

Du Jinning said with a smile: "I have also received the emperor's reward, thank you for the kind words of Gonggong Jin." ”

Last year, Zhao Yu felt good when he ate corn, and he knew that this thing was easy to grow, and this year he had already asked someone to plant corn in the imperial field, so this year there was no need for Father-in-law Jin to bring corn back to her.

Zhao Yu not only let people plant in the imperial field, but after hearing Du Jinning and Qi Bokun talk about the benefits of this thing, he also ordered corn to be planted in places with less arable land and barren land. Seeds are not difficult to obtain, and these provinces, states and counties are directly exchanged for grain with Gui Province.

Because of this, Zhao Yu rewarded Du Jinning with some gold and silver satin, and promised to make a credit in her credit book.

"Let's go, let's go to Nakata." Wu Shangshu said.

With the worst soil quality in Shimota, he became even more curious about the yields of Nakata and Ueda.
