Chapter 26 Reform of Mining

When Yun Yao opened her eyes again, she felt incredible, yesterday she won a battle on the ridges, and today she is exactly the same as before.

In these years, winning a war is really very unreal, there is no loot at all, there is no money, food, land and population, just a fight, and then go home and have a bonfire party, only boundless emptiness remains, and there is really no sense of accomplishment in winning.

The war between the nobles is like this, if you are not used to it, you have to get used to it, if you really want to rob, you have to participate in the foreign war of the monarch, but Yun Yao's family is the only one in her family, and she doesn't need to go out to serve at all. Service also depends on the population, a family is out of the head, and there are rules.

Yun Yao definitely doesn't have to serve, after all, her family is her own, but she will let the savages serve. It's like the last time the miners collectively repaired the house, it was equivalent to a kind of labor, but it didn't have to go far.

"Congratulations on your victory yesterday." Ji Jiang heard the children in the caiyi singing on the road, and knew that Yun Yao had won a battle yesterday: "Originally, I wanted to stay in the grass house yesterday and wait for you to come back, but I had to go back." "It's a shame that I didn't share Yunyao's victory in the first place.

"It's nothing, to be honest, I didn't feel too much, so I shot three arrows, and the other party admitted defeat and ended."

Ji She also came over at this time, and he took it for granted that Yun Yao won: "Although the battle is only a short time, you have been preparing for this battle since three months ago, this is the reason for victory, if you don't learn anything and prepare nothing, then it is impossible to win." ”

This teacher's education is really philosophical, Yun Yao didn't think so far, but he was really right, he worked for ten years on the stage for one minute and off the stage. I won lightly, but the effort behind it was not light.

"What the teacher said is that I have to keep working hard."

Ji She nodded, this apprentice is indeed smart: "Can you master the white arrow?" ”

"I've grasped the feeling, and I'm still trying to master it, and I'm trying to make it every time." Yun Yao said, to be honest, she didn't know what the principle of Bai Ya was, but she just made it, but sometimes she still failed, but the number of failures was getting less and less.

"Well, you must train to do what you want, but you can't always be ineffective."

"Yes."

Everything is back to normal, continue training, and think about how to make the field a little more productive as you train. In fact, this matter is not only what Yun Yao is thinking, many people are thinking, but it is not so easy to do.

The improvement of seeds has been done, and every year the country selects the best seeds for distribution. The reason why the nobles were not allowed to keep their own seeds was also to ensure that the yield of the planting could be increased a little.

The fields of the Western Zhou Dynasty are divided into three types: the upper field has the strongest fertility and the most output, and the middle and lower fields have small output, and sometimes they have to fallow, that is, they can not be cultivated for a year, all in order to ensure the fertility of the land. But it is still a year of ripening, and the yield of all kinds is low.

To solve the problem of insufficient food, we can only reclaim more land and conquer more savages, and then we can ensure that there is no problem with the food supply of the people. It is impossible to eat the whole world, including the savages, so now it is the debate of Huayi, the Chinese civilization is the Chinese people, and the others are Dongyi, Nanban, Xirong, and Beidi.

The Western Zhou Dynasty was an agricultural civilization, much more advanced than the surrounding civilizations that relied on gathering and nomadic herding to survive, and it took 10,000 years for the Chinese civilization to tame livestock and cultivate crops.

How can I get enough to eat?

Only when there is more production in the field can there be feed for pigs and sheep, so that the life of the mining can be better. After experiencing this heavy rain, Yun Yao suddenly felt that he had been too indifferent in the past twelve years, too lacking in subjective initiative, and some things should still be done.

Even if the output in the field cannot be increased, you can also use some other methods to increase the ability to resist risks, and the ability to resist risks in your own mining is too poor, as long as you confiscate the achievements for a year, you will definitely starve to death.

There are some things in my fifteen miles of land, rivers, trees, fields, soil, reeds, bamboo.

The trees are the least, the bamboo is ok, and the reeds are the most.

First of all, you have to plant more trees, and then you have to find a way to make bamboo and reeds into something that can make money. Reeds, in particular, grow fast and are sustainably regenerating.

Originally, Yun Yao wanted to burn pottery, but he needed fuel, and he couldn't burn much pottery even if he cut down all the trees, so he wanted to plant trees, and wood was a strategic substance.

Bamboo can be used to make bamboo baskets and other handicraft works can be exchanged for money, but what about reeds? It would be a shame if the most abundant reeds were not used.

If you want to make money, you must be good at using local resources, and Yun Yao used the leaves of the banana trees in the territory to make clothes, and now she wants to make money with reeds.

The reed leaves can be used to feed the livestock, Yun Yao racked her brains to think of a little, and then the reed flowers can be used as brooms, and the reed poles can be used as curtains, and even more so it seems that they can also make paper.

However, papermaking also needs fuel, because there are not many trees, so Yunyao can't cut down trees, even if you make paper, anyway, there is not much information to pass on this year, and the bamboo slips are enough. Of course, it doesn't mean that everyone is enough, after all, King Wen of Zhou can write such a masterpiece as "Zhou Yi", and bamboo slips are definitely not enough for him. But there are very few people who can write a book, and it is estimated that the only people who really want to write so many words are officials who record the weather, history, and stars.

Yun Yao has traveled through the past twelve years, except for carving oracle bone inscriptions when she was studying, she has not used it much on weekdays, and she does not keep a diary. Therefore, even if papermaking is forgotten, it is mainly the three development directions of feed and reed mats and reed curtains.

Since the decision was made, Yun Yao immediately mobilized everyone to harvest reeds and prepare to revitalize the economy of Caiyi. Of course, in addition to making handicrafts, there are also trees and roads.

Planting trees is understandable, and Shuzai suggested planting mulberry trees: "I heard that every household in the capital has begun to plant at least two mulberry trees, and although we haven't implemented it here, I think it will be our turn next year at the latest." ”

Of course, planting mulberry trees is to raise silkworms, and raising silkworms is to weave cloth, with the stability of the country, everyone's demand for cloth is also increasing, so Zhou Li has a new regulation, that is, every household should plant mulberry trees, so as not to eat enough silkworm babies.

"Mulberry trees should be planted, and other trees should be planted. Only when you plant trees can you have matches, and only then can you have wood. Isn't there a little bit of land in the fief that is difficult to cultivate? All trees are planted. ”

Shu Zai also knew the benefits of planting trees, nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll go and arrange, I will write down new house rules, prohibiting the cutting down of new trees." "Not only to plant, but also to prevent wild people from being ignorant and cutting down saplings.

"I have to arrange a few people to learn to weave reeds with me, this heavy rain has made me see a lot clearly, we can't just rely on the sky to eat, we have to find a way to use the resources in the territory to create goods that others need." Yun Yao said.

Shu Zai nodded again, because Yun Yao's clothes are indeed very easy to use, and he doesn't have to worry about getting wet when he goes out on a rainy day, he believes that Yun Yao has the ability to turn waste into treasure.
