So, let the master stay in the county office, and he personally came to Dawa Village to verify the truth of this rumor.

If you want to report to the imperial court, you can't tolerate a trace of falsehood, otherwise it will not be an increase in your promotion, but a disaster.

"Meng Jin's family, Lord Zhou is my county magistrate of Qinghe County." Li Zheng enthusiastically introduced, "He is honest and loves the people, and he learned that our village is expected to have a bumper harvest this year, so he came to inspect it." Along the way, count the crops in your field growing the best, I told the truth to Lord Zhou, the new fertilizer is exactly what you came up with. Mr. Zhou wants to ask you a few words in detail, you don't have to be afraid, just reply truthfully. ”

Xu Yin: "......"

How can this be a truthful reply?

In order to increase the yield, she ate dry rice and ate a full meal openly, in addition to the new manure method, the water from soaking the seeds was also mixed with the water of Diling Lake.

The truth certainly can't be told 100%.

Xu Yin summed up the experience and experience of farming in the previous small worlds, and in addition to the new manure method, she considered and said a few ways to improve yield:

"Lord Hui, before the sorghum and soybeans were planted, the fullest seeds specially picked by the women had a good foundation, and the sprouts that grew were particularly strong."

"When topdressing, you can't get too close to the roots, and don't apply too much at a time, just like people eating, it's easy to support if you eat too much at a time, it's better to eat less and eat more, and the same is true for fertilizer, rather thin fertilizer is applied diligently, but it is conducive to crop absorption."

"Since you have been to the fields of the women's houses, you must have seen the chickens and ducks in the fields. Chickens and ducks live on grass seeds and insects, and stocking them in the field can not only control weeds, but also remove insect pests. In addition, the head of the woman also caught a few gray magpies from the mountains, tied them to their feet a long, thin vine, and tied the other end of the vine to the branch at the edge of the field, and when they were hungry, they would fly into the field to eat the adults and eggs on the leaves, and when they were full, they would perch on the trees. If there are fewer pests, won't the crops grow better? ”

"Wonderful! Wonderful! ”

Zhou Xianling stroked his beard and praised while listening.

Fang just heard Li Zheng say that it was actually a village woman who came up with the new type of fertilizer, and she couldn't help muttering in her heart: How can a woman come up with a way to increase crop yield, isn't this nonsense!

At this moment, he swept away his original contempt and slowness.

Even if what she said didn't make Zhou Zhihai, who had never touched farming since he was a child and only read the books of sages, not understand it too well, but just because the crops in her field are growing the best, and the yield of rice per mu this summer has indeed increased by one and a half stones, I think she is very reasonable!

Write it down!

Write down all the one, two, or three points she said!

This quarter's recital finally doesn't have to rack your brains and dig out the content of your thoughts, isn't the ready-made content here?

Zhou County's order pressed the ecstasy in his heart, and asked the accompanying scribe to quickly take out the four treasures of the study room and record the 1510 that Xu Yin said.

Of course, he did not say that he was to write down the performance and present it to His Majesty, but that the people in other places, who did not know these methods, had to tell them and send someone to teach them, so that they could also grow more food and live a life without food and clothing.

Li Zheng followed the words of the county order and slapped a lot of sycophants.

At this time, Cui Mengjin came back.

After fertilizing the soybean fields, he went up the hill, cut a bundle of firewood, made a basket of hogweed, and found a clump of dogwood hiding in a thorny bush.

Remembering that the dogwood daughter-in-law sent by the dog egg liked it very much, and said that if there were more, he could also make medicinal wine, so he took a little effort this time, and used a firewood knife to remove the thorny bushes and pick the whole cornus back.

When he saw that there were guests at home, he unloaded firewood and pigweed into the firewood room, and first accompanied his daughter-in-law to greet the guests.

The county order was a matter of concern, and he was in a good mood, drinking mountain chrysanthemum tea, tasting wild fruit slices and osmanthus cakes, and he and Xu Yin started a homely meal with great interest.

I was shocked to learn that her domestic pig was not an ordinary domestic pig, but a wild boar caught in the mountains.

"Wild boar? Isn't that thing fierce? Can it still be raised at home? ”

"Lord Hui, it's a wild boar cub, not an adult wild boar." Xu Yin said, "It's like chickens and ducks lost since childhood, growing up in the mountains, and their living habits will also move closer to pheasants and wild ducks." Wild boar cubs are kept at home from an early age, and they can slowly adapt to the domestic life. ”

The county magistrate suddenly realized, and hurriedly motioned to the scribe to write this down as well.

Then, he curiously followed Cui Mengjin to the backyard to visit the environment where wild boars live.

Not to mention, except that it doesn't look very similar, everything else is really the same as a domestic pig.

Looking around the backyard of Cui's house, he found several things that were different from ordinary people's homes: such as the toilet with no smell in the latrine, the septic tank covered with stone slabs and beautiful with azaleas, and the compost pond that was easy to access......

"Write it down! Write them all down for the official! ”

Whenever he saw a place, Zhou County's order asked the scribe to write it down.

This article is all political achievements!

This trip to the countryside is worth it!

It's just a ladder to send him to Qingyun!

Zhou Xian ordered to go back to polish his pen and did not stay to eat.

Besides, he didn't think that the countryside would be able to entertain him with any good wine and food.

However, before leaving, he rewarded Cui Mengjin and his wife with fifty taels of silver in front of Li Zheng.

He didn't plan to report the peasant woman who came up with a new manure method, but based on the farming skills and breeding methods that Cui Mengjin and his wife said, he pretended to have summed up his experience by visiting the people in the jurisdiction, so that His Majesty could see his diligent and loving people and tireless side.

He prides himself on being a good official who is honest and honest, but no one appreciates him.

This time, he has to rely on his own efforts to gain His Majesty's favor.

In his opinion, it is really magnanimous to ask a poor couple from the countryside for fifty taels to buy the content of this recital.

For other county officials, it's not bad to ask the people to collect harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and ask a few questions to reward them?

Zhou Zhihai felt that he was really a good official who was honest and loved the people.

Xu Yin: "......"

Forget it, what do you have to do with an official who wants to climb up!

It's not bad to be able to borrow his hand to complete system tasks.

As for the reward for crossing the Ming Road, I just bought the wild lake pond in front of my house.

Cui Mengjin didn't have any opinion on this, but instead said a few words:

"The lake in front of your house looks big, in fact, the edge is very shallow, the only thing that can really raise fish is the center of the lake, spend so much money to buy a useless lake, I really don't know what you two think, do you want to be close to home?"

Xu Yin smiled and said, "I can't raise fish, so I can raise something else." ”

"What? Duck? Wouldn't it be better for ducks to rush to the river? There are more miscellaneous fish and shrimp in the river than in that lake. Rizheng muttered.

Xu Yin didn't say a word, she planned to plant lotus roots, and shallow water lotus roots are suitable for planting in relatively shallow lakes.

Go back and clean up the thatch around the lake, leaving only wormwood, reeds, calamus, canna, which can be used as ornamental plants of wild flowers and plants, planting lotus roots, mushrooms, and water chestnuts in the shallow water area near the shore, and breeding fish, shrimp and crabs in the slightly deeper area.

Wait for the mother duck at home to hatch the ducklings, build a row of duck houses by the lake, and when the spring flowers bloom, let the old ducks take the quacking ducklings to the lake to peck and play in the water, and it is beautiful to think about.
