Sometimes, Zhuge Liang questioned which of Zhang Xi's main classics was.

Although Zhang Xi once claimed that his family was heirloom from the "Book of Rites" in the early years, after getting along for more than ten years, Zhuge Liang never saw a little acceptance of the teachings of the "Book of Rites" from Zhang Xi.

This product doesn't have a reputation for deviance, it's already the result of everyone's help.

Zhang Xi, as everyone knows, his biggest advantage lies in his change, and he can put forward his own unique opinions on everything. Although these opinions sometimes sound very profound, and sometimes they sound ridiculous, after all, Zhuge Liang knows it, and Zhang Xi has the ability to do so.

Therefore, when Zhuge Liang learned that Zhang Xi's "Qingchu strategy" was not to make hay, he asked Zhang Xi to "elaborate" at the moment.

But Zhang Xi is also a little numb.

It's not like I've just crossed that time, and I think that with more than a thousand years of knowledge, I can show a lot of things around, but in fact, modern people just know a rough idea, and don't know how difficult it will be when things really have to be done.

Today's Zhang Xi is a feudal official on the ruling side, and he is also an ancient bureaucrat who has experienced more than ten years of training and is familiar with practice. Standing in his position, there are many things that cannot be said casually.

Therefore, Zhang Xi was a little hesitant and thought about what to say.

And when Zhuge Liang saw Zhang Xi's virtue, he suddenly knew something in his heart.

After more than ten years of getting along, with Zhuge Liang's insight, can you still know why Zhang Xi is like this? !

Obviously, this Zhang Yuanchang has made the same old mistake - I know it, but I don't know why.

Just like when he was engaged in "swamp fields" in Jingnan, Zhang Xi could see the value of the large swamps outside Changsha at a glance, and advocated the transformation of Jingnan swamps and the development of fertile land. This is the embodiment of Zhang Xi's ability.

But the problem is that when Zhang Xi was actually asked to do this, he was confused, and after more than half a year, the materials were piled up in a room, but the fields were not transformed much.

Of course, Zhang Xi must have grown a lot now, so that he is now engaged in local practice, so that he will not be as confused as he was more than ten years ago, but. Zhang Xi's characteristics are like this, he can have a general response plan for many things, but he doesn't know what kind of problems he will encounter in the implementation of these plans.

Now the entanglement of this goods is probably aware of this problem, and this product is trying to find a way to remedy it.

"But it's okay to say that it's okay, if there's anything wrong, we'll discuss it together." Zhuge Liang hurriedly said.

This kid really can't let him think blindly, otherwise, a good idea will also become a bad idea under his blind thinking.

This kid thinks too much, and it's especially easy to think too far.

If you have an idea, you can take it out, discuss it together, and gather everyone's wisdom to get things done, there is no need to think about it alone.

By the way, this is also to reassure Zhang Xi and let him rest assured and say it boldly.

With Zhuge Liang's words, Zhang Xi did relax a lot, paused, and said, "When Xi was young and studying, he once got a book, which recorded a strange method: bury the green grass in spring and summer after cutting it into a deep pit, and take it out in winter and still be green grass. ”

No one was in a hurry to ask nonsense like "this book is here now".

In these years, people have some secret methods that have been passed down by their masters, and most of these secret methods cannot be taught to others, even if they want to say it, they have to use excuses to see it from ancient books. That's the rule of the day.

If people are willing to say it, it is already a very generous performance, and it would be rude for you to ask "where is this book" in a hurry.

This is the tacit understanding of the people of this era.

Therefore, when Jiang Xu and Zhao Yun listened to Zhang Xi's words, the first question was

"Can the chief be sure?!"

That means, has Zhang Xi ever tried it, is it doing this, can he really save the grass?!

This is the question that people who really do practical things will ask, regardless of where you come from, as long as it works.

Zhang Xi shook his head slightly and said, "Xi has also verified that half of the harvest is rotten grass and half is green grass. The violent death of rotting grass and livestock, and the food of grass and livestock are mostly no different from fresh grass, and there are occasional minor diseases when eating, but they can recover in a few days. ”

Actually, Zhang Xi really hasn't done this experiment, he doesn't have the conditions to do these experiments at all, and when he crossed over, he was no better than the poor ghost, and then he fought in the south and the north, how could he have the time to do this kind of experiment.

But when Zhang Xi was in his last life, he was fortunate to see a video about Qingchu technology when he was visiting Xiaopo Station.

Although it has been too long and some details may not be remembered clearly, Zhang Xi still remembers the general operation process and the possible consequences of improper operation of Qingchu.

The technology of green storage can not be done anywhere, and it cannot be too far away from the livestock land, otherwise these green storage forage is easy to lose nutrients during transportation.

Again, to engage in large-scale green storage, from the perspective of cost, cellar storage is the most convenient and low-cost way of green storage.

There is a restriction on cellar storage, which must be in a place where the terrain is high and dry, the soil is hard, the groundwater level is low, and it is easy to drain and not accumulate water. These places, it just so happens that Qinzhou and Liangzhou are very consistent.

Then the only remaining constraint is the airtightness of the cellar.

Green storage technology, to put it bluntly, is to isolate the stored green fodder from the outside air, resulting in internal hypoxia, resulting in anaerobic fermentation, thereby producing organic acids, which can make the fresh tree feed preserved for a long time, which can reduce nutrient loss and is conducive to animal digestion and absorption.

In this era, the biggest technical barrier is probably to create an oxygen-deficient environment.

In modern society, these problems can be solved by making iron cans or brick cellars, and in modern society, tin cans and brick cellars are considered a symbol of low cost.

But in this era, iron is a strategic material, and there are a few people in the family who can live in a proper luxury of brick houses.

Therefore, what Zhang Xi can choose is the most traditional way, digging a deep pit in the ground and a cellar to realize this green storage technology.

The problem is that the airtightness of such cellars is often not very good, and if you are unlucky, you will encounter poor drainage or groundwater infiltration. The green fodder in this cellar will all rot and eventually become poisonous fodder.

Zhang Xi deliberately said this to tell Jiang Xu and Zhao Yun that his method is actually not so complete, and if it is not operated well, it will cause very serious consequences.

However, in the eyes of Jiang Xu and Zhao Yun, this is not a shortcoming.

You must know that in this era, when it comes to winter, any livestock can only eat hay to survive, and the fat one is distressed to look at.

Even if Zhang Xi's method only has a half success rate, as long as it can really make livestock eat grass like spring and summer in winter, it doesn't require fat growth, as long as it doesn't lose fat, it's a great achievement.

And Zhang Xi's method doesn't sound so difficult, that is, dig a deep pit, be careful not to dig groundwater, and then chop the green fodder finely and throw it in, compact it and then seal the soil. This is something that anyone can do, so what's so difficult?!

Now the two of them are not worried about how much success rate this technique can have, and the two of them are more worried about it.

"If this method is feasible, it is necessary to send a confidant to manipulate the matter, and not to let this method be spread."

Zhao Yun said with a solemn face.

This was immediately agreed by Jiang Xu.

Qinzhou and Liangzhou are both border states, and there are not many other around, and there are too many Qianghu aliens.

If this method is passed on, it will be obtained by those Qianghu aliens. Then Liangzhou and Qinzhou, I'm afraid there will never be peace.

It doesn't matter if some small tribes of the Hu people arrive, there is a high probability that it will cause a melee after getting this method, and there is no need to worry about it for the time being until there is no big force to dominate the grassland.

But the Qiang people. Although the Qiang tribes are not too harmonious, the Qiang people have a strong sense of identity, and there is no shortage of large Qiang tribes near Qinzhou and Liangzhou.

Zhuge Liang also felt that this matter was very necessary, it could not be spread out all at once, and it must be strictly controlled.

But Zhang Xi didn't think it was necessary.

Because ah, if the green storage technology can only be stored in the cellar in this era, then without the help of the starter culture, the probability of success is too low.

Spend manpower and material resources to engage in green storage, and the final product is only so little. How can the Qiang people have the patience to develop and improve the green storage technology.

Therefore, Zhang Xi believes that as long as the formula and ratio of the starter culture are mastered, then even if this technology is learned by the Qiang people, it will not be able to shake the dominant position of the Han.

And this starter culture, in this era, can only use wheat bran water. Corn is still in South America, and no one can get it.

As long as this secret is controlled and not lost, if you kill those Qiang people, they will never think that wheat bran can still be of this use.

As soon as Zhuge Liang heard this, he immediately felt a lot more relieved.

The rest is not at ease, it is Zhuge Liang's caution.

He asked Zhao Yun and Jiang Xu not to promote this method easily after returning to Liangzhou and Qinzhou.

It is necessary to find reliable people to conduct experiments first, find ways to improve the probability of success, and then find a way to slowly promote this matter on this basis.

Anyway, the next few years will be a time to recuperate, and there will be no foreign wars for the time being, so there is enough time to engage in these things.

Once this technology matures, then in Liangzhou and Qinzhou, a large number of war horses can be provided in a short time.

When the time comes, the imperial court will allocate funds to Qinzhou and Liangzhou to form a large number of cavalry units.

As long as the cavalry troops are mature, they can directly march east and recover the Central Plains!!
