Chapter 380: Sending Oil
The oil was carried out in an orderly manner, and the purchase of piglets and the construction of pig equipment also began.
Seeing a litter of piglets being bought, the Fifth Princess couldn't help but ask Gu Wanning: "Brother and sister, why did you let me plant so many peanuts in the first place?" ”
"My sister-in-law is most curious about why I let my sister-in-law raise pigs and raise **? After all, we are not short of money now, we have made a lot of money just from Jiucuizhai's income, and these grains in the field have earned a few taels of silver from one acre of land, why do you have to trouble Zhang Luo so much? ”
The fifth princess didn't want to admit that she was stupid, and she had to ask her younger siblings about such a trivial matter, but she still nodded honestly, if you don't have brains, we have to ask people with brains for advice, thinking that she was treated like a subordinate who didn't want money by Ye Moxuan at the beginning, and she was humbled to the dirt, and she didn't get a good face from him, and then it was because she listened to her younger siblings that she lived like a person, especially now, that man is like a cheap, revolving around her all day long, isn't it all because of her younger siblings?
Therefore, if she doesn't listen to her father, she will listen to her younger siblings, and if she doesn't understand, she will ask, so she doesn't pretend to be smart in front of her younger siblings!
"It's because we have money that we have something meaningful."
The Fifth Princess: "Growing peanuts and raising pigs, is it meaningful?" ”
"Of course! Sister-in-law, you think, we are royal daughters-in-law, we have silver, and we have status, if we don't do anything because of this, and have nothing to do except eat and dress well all day long, is this life at a glance? ”
The fifth princess thought about it, isn't it what her younger brother and sister said?
If it weren't for the ripening of the crops in the field these days, and she came to the village, then she would really be like eating and waiting to die.
"So, let's find something to do to enrich ourselves, just like planting peanuts, although peanuts are not a staple food, but they are also food, and the peanuts planted by my sister-in-law yield 650 catties per mu, peeled, there are also 4560 catties, these can be eaten, really to catch up with the famine year, peanuts can also save lives."
And this year's sister-in-law planted 650 pounds of peanuts per mu, next year careful management may be able to grow 800 pounds, and when we make peanut oil is recognized by everyone, we can bring more people to plant peanuts, and then sister-in-law can also publish a book, on how to grow high-yield peanuts, this matter is not very meaningful? ”
The fifth princess couldn't help but nodded, her younger brother and sister were right, although these peanuts were not planted by her own hands, but they grew from her Zhuangzi, how could she also have a little credit, right?
And can you still publish a book by planting a crop?
But what won't she do?
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, you have already planted a season of peanuts this year, and you have some experience, and when you plant another year next year, you will carefully record the selection, how to prepare fertilizer, how to plant, etc., and then you can publish the book with a little polish.
Also, my master said that the whole body of this peanut is a treasure, peanut kernels can be oiled, peanut residue can be fed to pigs, and even peanut seedlings and peanut skins can be given to pigs to eat, let's use these to raise some fat and strong pigs, sister-in-law and then a book on raising pigs, when the time comes, future generations will see that the earliest book authors of planting crops and breeding are the names of sisters-in-law, sister-in-law can not be famous through the ages?! ”
The fifth princess was almost lame by the big cake painted by Gu Wanning, is she like this? What is planted is obviously eternal!
Therefore, for Gu Wanning's words, she nodded except for nodding, and she never thought about whether she would really be named a pig princess on her head, which was not appropriate?
"Raise, let's raise it well, in the past two days, I will arrange for someone to find the person who is best at raising chickens and pigs to study together, how to raise these domestic animals well, and then we will publish a book, I want to live through the ages and become a woman who leaves her name in the history books!"
It's no longer just Ye Feng's, but - Feng Xinrou! ”
After shouting the slogan, the five princesses set up the housekeeper on the Zhuangzi with Malier's support, and then went to the countryside to collect more pigs, and found experienced pig breeders, and also supervised the people who built the pigsty, and must give the little piglets a warm home.
Gu Wanning: ...... cough, this chicken blood seems to be a little fierce~
The guy in the shop soon came back to deliver a message, saying that the oil was all sold out, not only that, but someone set a price of 1,000 catties at a price of 100 wen a catty, and the fifth princess knew that peanut oil was so easy to sell, and she was even more motivated now, she never thought that one day she would be so satisfied because of farming.
She is also a person who will come to things, since peanut oil is so well received, how can she send it to the palace to show filial piety.
Of course, this kind of work of sending things has to be handed over to the five princes.
As a result, Ye Moxuan, who didn't like to slip in front of the emperor the most, was driven to the shelves.
The emperor heard that the fifth child came to send him something for a moment, and then asked: "What did he come to give?" ”
"It was said that it was oil squeezed from peanuts, and it was sold for two days, and the people who used it said it was good, so it was sent to the emperor."
The emperor asked the fifth son to be invited in.
Ye Moxuan gave the emperor a salute, "Father, my princess planted some peanuts on the Zhuangzi, this year is a bumper harvest, and then she and her six brothers and sisters tinkered with an oil mill, the machine was improved by them, the oil yield is quite high, and the taste of the oil is also good, she asked her sons to send you some to taste, you want to eat well, and she will pack the oil you have here in the future." ”
The corner of the emperor's mouth brought a smile, "Peanut harvest? How many catties per mu? ”
Ye Moxuan said: "She planted a total of more than 2,200 acres, with an average of 650 catties of peanuts growing in one acre, and 4560 catties of peanuts peeled. ”
When the emperor heard this, he suddenly came to his senses: "Is the yield of peanuts so large?" I remember that the yield of rice per mu is only about 300 catties, right? ”
"Listen to the princess's meaning, this kind of peanut is also methodical, and it took a lot of effort for them to make the peanut so high-yielding.
The emperor was a little excited: "Okay, very good!" Even if peanuts are not a staple food, they are edible in short, and the yield is here, so it would be a good thing if peanuts could be grown in large quantities.
If rice and wheat can also have such a large yield, how can the people of our Daxing Dynasty no longer have to worry about running out of food. ”
Ye Moxuan thought about it, and still talked about the six brothers and sisters interplanting wheat, "After the peanuts in this field came out, the sixth brother and sister taught my princess to interplant wheat, that is, a handful of wheat and a handful of greens, she said that this stubble of greens can be harvested in late October or early November, and it will not affect the growth of wheat. ”
The emperor listened more and more seriously, "In the south, there have long been two or three crops a year, but in the north, it is rare to have two crops a year, at most three crops in two years, so that you and your princess will take good care of those interplanted grain fields in the future, and if the yield of wheat increases this season, I will also give you a credit!" ”
