Chapter 1166: Accidental Knockdown
In the first year of Jianxing, although there were occasional small droughts and small floods in the north and south of the Jin Kingdom, they were all phased and could be overcome locally, so the overall harvest was a bumper year.
At the end of the year, the summer harvest and winter wheat are followed by continuous sowing and harvesting, soybeans, millet, millet and rice.
Millet is rhubarb rice, is one of the five grains, but the yield is very low, Zhao Hanzhang considered the problem of yield, when distributing seeds only divided wheat, soybeans and rice, but the people also kept a lot of seeds, especially the nobles.
In remote areas far from Luoyang and Yuzhou, stone grinding has not been popularized, wheat rice and bean rice are still the staple food of ordinary people, and those with better families prefer to eat millet and rice, so there are many people who grow millet.
After the autumn harvest, the farmers keep enough for this year's taxes and enough for their families, and the surplus is sold in the market, so a variety of grains appear on the market.
In addition to cereals, there are also various types of seeds, such as vegetable seeds, hemp seeds, etc.
Zhao Hanzhang ordered Sinong Temple to go to the market to find all kinds of seeds to cultivate, "In addition to wheat, rice and beans, you should also study the seeds of other crops, the harvest period after the wheat is ripe is very short, whether it is the winter wheat planted in our Central Plains, or the spring wheat to be planted in Youzhou and the northern part of the state, the harvest period is extremely stormy." ”
"Once the mature wheat is lodging, it is not much different from no harvest of grains, and manpower is always limited, so it takes a variety of crops to grow a variety of grains to diverge the harvest time."
If it takes 10 days for a family of three to harvest 10 acres of wheat and transport it home, then 20 acres will take 20 days, and the time period is too long, the ripe wheat is likely to suffer from wind and rain, and the overripe wheat will be scattered.
In order to reduce losses, it is best to divide some land and divert the harvest time, so that the manpower can be used more rationally and can be slightly modified.
Millet and millet are good choices.
Moreover, millet can be used to make wine.
Just look at Zhao Hu, everyone is having a better life, and wine is indispensable.
In addition, Zhao Hanzhang also said: "In addition to all kinds of seeds on the market, you should also collect some wild seeds. ”
The doctor of Sinong Temple wondered: "Seeds in the wild? ”
"Yes, wild wheat, wild rice, wild millet, two wheat with similar traits have not changed much, and sometimes there will be bad lesions, but the two wheats with very different traits may breed excellent wheat seeds, and new different traits will be added," Zhao Hanzhang said: "When I inspected the wheat fields around Luoyang this year, I found that there were many wheat ears that had just fallen down not long after hanging ears, and the wind and rain were uncontrollable, so we had to find a way to strengthen the strength of the wheat, so that it would not fall down in the face of wind and rain." ”
The doctor's eyes lit up suddenly, "What does the general mean is that we want our current wheat to mate with the wild wheat that has experienced wind and rain in the wild without falling, and borrow their tenacity?" ”
Zhao Hanzhang bowed, "You can't just look at the number of grains in the ears of wheat, thinking about increasing the yield, and ignoring other traits." If you can breed strong and tough wheat seeds so that they do not lodging, this is also a kind of increase in yield. In addition, there are also drought-resistant and waterlog-resistant seeds, so that people can choose wheat seeds with different advantages according to different local conditions in the future. ”
"The same is true for wheat seeds, and the same is true for rice seeds."
The doctor hurriedly wrote down the matter, he was doing agricultural research, and naturally knew that wheat and wheat would mate with each other, they had always selected the best wheat seeds and the best wheat varieties to mate, and never thought of looking for wild wheat, after all, the harvest of wild wheat was really not high, not delicious, small grains, short and few ears, isn't this a good product with a bad product?
But what the general said also makes sense, maybe they can mate three wheat roots at a time, or they can mate A and B first, and then mate with a good Ding after getting C, which should be able to get a better wheat seed, right?
No matter, go back and try it first.
It's just right, it's not too cold at this time, go into the mountains to look for it, maybe you can find it, but unfortunately the winter wheat has been planted, you can only catch up with next year's spring wheat, or build a greenhouse to chase the winter wheat?
In a moment of thought, the doctor crashed into Shen Ruhui, who was walking in front of him with his head bowed and meditating.
The doctor suddenly bumped into Shen Ruhui, his steps were a little panicked, his left foot tripped his right foot, and he fell down against Shen Ruhui.
Shen Ruhui himself was distracted, and before he came back to his senses, he was directly pressed by Mount Tai, and he lay on the ground with a snap.
The doctor panicked and wanted to get up, but the more busy he was, the more he made mistakes, and pressed Shen Ruhui, who barely raised his head, to the ground again. ”
Dr. Yu was pulled up and stood up, and when he heard this, his face turned red, and he hurriedly shook his hand and said, "I didn't, I just didn't see Shen Langzhong." ”
"Shen Langzhong is your superior, you didn't see such a big person walking in front of you?"
Dr. Yu scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry, not knowing how to explain it, he really didn't see anyone at the time, he didn't even remember walking himself, but they certainly didn't believe it.
Shen Ruhui was pulled up from the ground, a little embarrassed to help the hair crown, frowned when he heard this, he first saluted and thanked the officials around them, and then said to Dr. Yu: "It's okay, let's go back to Sinong Temple together." ”
Dr. Yu exhaled, calmed down a little, answered "yes" and followed Shen Ruhui step by step.
"Hey, wait a minute," Li Tianhe stopped with a smile, "Shen Langzhong, Dr. Yu is disrespectful to Shangguan, right?" If you don't punish him, you should let Yushi punish him, just right, Lu Yushi is here, why don't you let him make the decision for you? ”
Lu Yushi held back a smile and said: "Dr. Yu doesn't have to worry, if you can prove that it was an unintentional move, you will be fined three months at most, and it will not matter." ”
Shen Ruhui was a little angry and said: "He just did it unintentionally, I didn't care, what do you care about?" ”
The three-month monthly salary is nothing to Li Tianhe, who has military exploits and spoils, and it is not worth mentioning to Lu Yushi, who has an outstanding family background and a lot of family resources, but it is a lot of money for Dr. Yu and Shen Ruhui, who need a monthly salary to support their families.
If he is really deducted for three months, Dr. Yu will have to cut back on food and clothing.
Lu Yushi looked serious, "You can't say that, beating Shangguan is a business, Shen Langzhong doesn't care about it, it's Shen Langzhong's business, I, as Yushi, can't not restrain the behavior of officials, otherwise if there are officials who do such a big rebellious thing, wouldn't it be okay to be private?" ”
Shen Ruhui was annoyed, "You! ”
Dr. Yu's face became more and more pale, and he looked at Shen Ruhui at a loss.
The generals and officials who were watching on the sidelines looked at him amusedly, and said to Shen Ruhui: "Dr. Yu is your subordinate, you punish him first, and Yushitai will not punish him again." ”
Shen Ruhui is just stupid, but his brain is not stupid, he is afraid that if he punishes Dr. Yu, Yu Shitai will still punish him again, so he firmly does not punish and insists that Dr. Yu is just a mistake and not wrong.
