Chapter 280: It turns out that you can make a fortune as a soldier
When he came out of Yanjing City, Qin Guan had already released the crop seeds stored in the space, which was really not much, and it could be pulled over with just a big car.
This seed is simply not enough to plant a thousand acres of land, Qin Guan thinks that anyway, the land here is vast and sparsely populated, so let's get more land first, if it succeeds, it can be spread out directly in the future and planted in a large area.
Qin Guan sat under the pergola, and a hundred peasants stepped forward, they already knew that the young man in front of them was the famous and rumored god of the Zhenguo General, Yong'an Guogong Qin Guan, this is a fairy-like figure, these people are a little trembling and saluting Qin Guan.
Qin looked at these people, all of them with dark faces, their hands were full of calluses left by work, and he knew that they were all farmers who worked regularly.
"I know that when I called you over, some people were scared, don't worry, I called you here to farm the land, if this work is done well, each of you can get a reward of no less than 100 yuan."
When these peasants heard this, all the hearts of the people were happy.
Isn't it just farming, they are the best at it, but they don't know what to plant and there will be such a high reward.
Qin Guan continued: "I have a batch of crop seeds in my hands, which are not easy to come by, and there are not many of them. ”
"I'll do my best." These people hurried back.
Qin Guan nodded, "Now you are in a group of ten, come to me to receive a seed, I will tell you the habits of the crop, as for how to plant it, it is up to you, as long as you do a good job, I will not hesitate to reward." ”
A team of ten people stepped forward, Qin Guan asked the guards to bring a box, and after opening it, it was full of golden seeds.
Han Yuqing, Xiong Da and the others also stepped forward to take a look curiously.
"I've seen this crop before."
The peasants looked at each other, and finally one of them replied, "I haven't seen it yet." ”
Qin Guan grabbed a handful of corn, flowed to the box again, and said in his mouth: "This crop is called corn, one plant can grow to five feet high, and there is an ear of grain on it, which can grow to about half a foot. ”
"Corn can be used as a staple food, just like our rice, wheat, corn. If the corn is planted well, the yield per mu should reach seven or eight hundred catties. ”
Hearing Qin Guan say that the yield per mu is seven or eight hundred catties, these peasants are stupid, when have they ever heard of a grain crop with a yield of seven or eight hundred catties per mu, and now the grain yield per mu in the northern dryland is only one hundred and seventy or eighty catties, which is still a good year.
Qin Guan said that this is all collected, and in the future, ordinary people can produce 1,000 catties, and there are also 2,000 catties per mu with a well-managed yield, but there is no chemical fertilizer in ancient times, and Qin Guan is not so full of words.
Ignore their surprise, this is just the beginning, and even more surprise is yet to come.
"I'm going to tell you his preference now, corn is afraid of water and likes light, it is very suitable for growing in dry land, you have a good base fertilizer, as long as you fill enough water during the water demand period, he can grow very well."
"The planting method is also very simple, directly throw the corn into the ground a finger deep soil, bury it and wait for germination, if it is a little more fine, you can find a good piece of land to raise seedlings, just like rice seedlings, and transplant after the corn seedlings emerge."
"But remember, they must be spaced apart, and each plant must be a foot square, do you remember all of this?"
Those peasants hurriedly saluted and took the lead in saying: "General, such a simple method, let's naturally remember it, since you said that the seedlings are good, then we will raise the seedlings and transplant them, you think it's good." ”
Qin nodded, "It's up to you, it's just a little troublesome." ”
The farmer immediately shook his hand and said: "No trouble, no trouble, this is not troublesome, it is very troublesome, we will definitely make these baby pimples well." ”
Hearing his words, Qin Guan also smiled.
The next group of ten people came up, Qin Guan asked people to bring a basket, which was full of peanuts, Qin Guan pointed to the peanuts and said: "This is peanuts, it is an oil-producing crop, by the way, how much is the yield per mu of sesame seeds." ”
An old farmer hurriedly returned: "Go back to my lord, the yield of sesame seeds per mu is seventy or eighty catties." ”
Qin pointed to the peanut, it was really enough, he pointed to the peanut: "The yield of this peanut per mu is about 400 catties, and the oil yield is larger than that of sesame, it is the best oil-producing crop, and your group will be responsible for planting peanuts in the future." ”
Speaking of this, Qin Guan grabbed a few peanuts from the basket, opened the skin and said, "This thing can not only squeeze oil, but also a delicacy, and it is also very good to eat raw." As he spoke, he tossed a few peanuts into his mouth.
"By the way, you can taste it too." After speaking, he put a few peanuts in his hand into the hands of the old farmer.
The old farmer held it in both hands, but he didn't eat it at all.
"Thank you for your reward, there are few seeds, so the old man won't eat them."
Qin Guan was stunned.
He threw a few peanuts that had not yet been peeled back into the basket.
"Now they're yours, lift them aside."
The group walked away with baskets of peanuts.
Ten more people came up, Qin Guan took out the potatoes and told them how to germinate, how to divide the pieces, and how to plant, and the rest could only be explored by themselves.
When Qin Guan said that the yield of potatoes per mu could reach 2,000 catties, people were shocked.
When the next group came up, Qin Guan took out the sweet potatoes and told them that this kind of sweet potatoes could yield three or four thousand catties per mu, and people were already a little confused.
When Qin Guan took out the pumpkin seeds and said that the yield of this pumpkin per mu could reach six or seven thousand catties, people felt that they couldn't think about it, was this listening to the book of heaven.
Then Qin Guan took out the seeds of sunflowers, peppers, tomatoes, and tobacco and sent them down, telling them how to plant them.
After these peasants carried the crops away, Xiong Da woke up from the shock, he suddenly realized that these things were too important, and there must be no half-point difference, so he immediately revised the previous order, from the original 20 miles of guard, to 50 miles, 30 miles and 10 miles of three lines of defense guards, those who trespassed into 30 miles did not listen to dissuasion, and were captured on the spot, and those who broke into 10 miles without reason could be killed.
For these farmers, to achieve maximum control, they can only operate on the farm of 1,000 acres, not to go out at will, not to see any outsiders during the planting period, the implementation of all-weather personnel monitoring system.
After dealing with the crops, Qin Guan returned to Yanjing City, and issued an order as soon as he returned.
Reward!
Suddenly, the entire barracks was lively.
The non-commissioned officers of the North Route Army were all very excited, you know, the marshal had promised to let all the soldiers "buy 100 acres of land to be landlords, and marry daughters-in-law in a beautiful scenery".
Immediately, the reward conditions were posted, and many people were shocked.
It turns out that you can make a fortune as a soldier.
