Today's Emperor Zhou Ping wears coarse linen clothes, and he also learned from farmers to wear a pair of straw sandals. Gu Shao couldn't cry or laugh, Your Majesty's straw shoes are more labor-intensive and more expensive than cloth shoes.

Emperor Zhou Ping gently shook the small whip in his hand, began to support the Quyuan plow, and walked forward. As an emperor who has presided over three spring ploughing ceremonies, he still remembers the time when he cultivated the land, and worked hard.

At the end of the day, you will also be tired.

But now Quyuan plough is being pulled forward by the ox, and he doesn't have to work hard, as long as he controls the direction. It won't be long before it's over.

Emperor Zhou Ping urged the scalper to turn, the scalper turned obediently as if he understood human words, and the curved plough completed the turning action well, which was effortless and smooth.

"Good, good, effortless, efficient." After Emperor Zhou Ping ploughed a few laps, he praised again and again, and even he, a person who only ploughed the land twice a year, could use it skillfully, which showed that the operation was simple and labor-saving.

Liang Gonggong reminded, "Your Majesty, this quyuan plow can also adjust the depth of the plowshare, which is easier than before, why don't you try it too?" ”

"Try it." Emperor Zhou Ping was very interested and proud, and felt that he could cultivate 20 acres of land today.

After adjusting the plough deeper, Emperor Zhou Ping continued to work, and when he saw that he was plowing the land, there was still something that could break the mud. It's a whimsical idea to go once and do two jobs.

This Mrs. Dre is worthy of being the person who discovered high-yield crops, and her brain is smart, and the improved curved plow is so easy to use, and the cost is more material and labor saving than before.

Emperor Zhou Ping was overjoyed and prepared to reward Liu Pan'er heavily.

At the spring ploughing ceremony, Emperor Zhou Ping took the Quyuan plough and made a shining debut. On that day, not only Emperor Zhou Ping wanted to plough the land, but the officials would also join in the fun and accompany His Majesty to spring ploughing. In the name of beauty, experience the suffering of the people.

In this year's spring ploughing, Emperor Zhou Ping used an improved Quyuan plow, and other ministers used a straight plow. In order to reflect the high efficiency of the Quyuan plow, Emperor Ping of Zhou and his ministers cultivated large tracts of open land at the same time.

In the past, everyone waited for His Majesty to plough the land twice, and then they would have two laps of cultivation. This year's approach is also quite surprising.

Gu Shao knew in advance the efficiency of Qu Yuan's plow, and when he saw that His Majesty was going to test the ploughing with his courtiers, he knew it in his heart, and lowered his head and smiled.

His Majesty's actions are sometimes quite funny.

After Liang Gonggong said that he started, Emperor Zhou Ping drove the oxen, supported the Quyuan plow, and walked in the field easily. It was only a few breaths, and Emperor Zhou Ping was already in front.

When the ministers reacted, they only saw Emperor Zhou Ping's back getting farther and farther away, and they were amazed in their hearts.

Wenchen is weak, and the cultivation is slow, and even the brave generals in the court can't catch up with Emperor Zhou Ping at this time. When they saw His Majesty on the ground, they did not pause, turned a corner, and walked back quickly.

Emperor Zhou Ping saw his courtiers on the way back, and urged proudly, "All Aiqing, it's so slow, didn't you have breakfast?" ”

Although these words were a bit ironic, those ministers had already practiced a deaf and deaf kung fu, and their eyes were fixed on Emperor Zhou Ping.

They found that the oxen that pulled the plough were all the same, but the iron plough was different, and it must be His Majesty's iron plough that was better to use.

It's just that before they could see it clearly, Emperor Zhou Ping drove the oxen, pushed the Quyuan plow, and quickly staggered with them.

When Emperor Zhou Ping arrived at the land, he turned around again, and when he was about to reach the other side, he met the ministers again. In terms of speed, it is more than twice as fast as the minister's.

The queen's younger brother Zhao Qingming, who is also among the cultivated land, is the slowest to do, at this time seeing His Majesty's iron plow so fast, he was very curious, threw down the reins and iron plow in his hand, and ran to the side of Emperor Zhou Ping, "Your Majesty, why is your plow bent?" The speed is still so fast, can you give Weichen a try? ”

After running twice, Emperor Zhou Ping also sweated, and today he just wanted the minister to realize the benefits of Quyuan plow. Now that the minister has stepped forward, Emperor Zhou Ping began to show off, "This is the Quyuan plow, and the efficiency of cultivated land is more than twice that of the Zhiyuan plow, saving time, effort and money······"

The ministers stopped working and came to see.

Zhao Qingming was already eager to try, and he was the first to grab the Quyuan plow and began to try, "Your Majesty, this Quyuan plow is really easy to use, and it is more labor-saving than the one that Weichen used just now!" ”

Those people were very curious when they saw Zhao Qingming's movements, and when Zhao Qingming came back, they were snatched by others, and everyone took turns trying the Quyuan plow.

The good use of the curved plough has been unanimously recognized.

Emperor Zhou Ping's actions were also very fast, and he immediately ordered Dasi Nong to promote the Quyuan plow, and the method of changing the straight Yuan plough to the Quyuan plow.

Emperor Ping of Zhou gave Derui's wife Liu Pan'er a heavy reward, 5,000 taels of silver, 50 pieces of cloud brocade, a bucket of pearls and other valuables.

When the queen mother saw His Majesty's reward, she immediately gave it a reward. Whether it is the Quyuan plough improved by Mrs. Derui Liu Paner, or Mrs. Derui's husband Li Yuanqing, who is rare, they are all worthy of Empress Zhao's attention and reward.

Empress Zhao's reward is not only for Liu Paner, but also for the children. It's a delicate thing that is rare. Not to mention that you can't buy them in Cuiyang County, even in the bustling Xunyang Mansion, you can't buy these good things.

Father-in-law Liang once again took the place of His Majesty and personally sent a reward to Mrs. Derui.

At the same time, Mrs. Drey's and Liu County's previous proposal to ban the binding of small feet was adopted. Emperor Ping of Zhou's decree had been issued, and the following yamen were urged to promote it.

The emperor issued such an edict to express his dislike for his little feet. Merchants in the south could not engage in the imperial examination, so they wanted to train the women of their families and marry into official families. Even if you can't get married, it's good to be a concubine.

Now that the decree is issued, all the girls carefully cultivated by the merchants are smashed into their hands, and they can't be concubines in the official family, they can only be digested within the merchants who are also unable to take the imperial examination. It greatly reduces the enthusiasm of wrapping small feet in the south, some people have just begun to wrap their feet, quickly put down, although the toes are broken, but people are still young, and they can grow into big feet.

When the decree was passed to Cuiyang County, it was accompanied by His Majesty's approval.

When Lord Liu saw the comments of Zhu Bi above and the words of praise, he was even more happy. personally took His Majesty's review to Liu Paner and sent it to Jixiang Town.

At this time, Liu Paner was in the field, with a power hedge, to explain to the long-term workers the importance of fertilization and fertilization, requiring that the soil must be finely broken to facilitate subsequent transplanting.

After intensive cultivation, water began to be brought into the field, no more, no less, just over the soil. Less water is not conducive to the survival of rice; In the same way, if there is more water, the seedlings inserted into it are easy to float up, and it is even more difficult to survive.

After inspecting in the field, Liu Paner came to the seedling field again. At this time, the seedlings in the seedling field have grown so tall.

Liu led people to sit on a small bench, pulling rice seedlings, shaking off the soil from the roots, and then tying them into handfuls with straw.

Li Dashan saw that Liu Paner's family had started to pull out seedlings, and he also began to do the same.

However, he was still not at ease, so he ran over and asked: "Yuanqing's family, this seedling is so big, can it survive if it is planted in the ground?" ”
