At noon, the team arrived in Mengcheng County, and there was no camp, and the people who arrived first were cooking, and it was obvious that they had to continue their journey after eating.

The delay in Longkangji is too long, and you need to chase it back, otherwise you will take care of some things when you get to one place, and you won't be able to reach Helin next year.

Han Zhixian, Shen Xiancheng, Mao Zhushu and Mao Dianguan of Mengcheng came to visit.

Zhu Biao left them to eat, and asked about the local situation by the way, on the way he had already seen that there were many fields next to him, and he would be able to harvest rice in another month.

Zhu Biao asked some questions about land, population, livestock, etc., and the four of them answered each other fluently and made preparations in advance.

Zhu Biao couldn't ask anything, he looked at the elder in his eyes: "Captain, you can talk about it." ”

Four officials: "......"

The title of lieutenant is supposed to be the person in charge of one or two villages, right? How......

"Han Zhixian, the soybeans are about to be harvested, right?" The lieutenant asked.

"In half a month, if the weather is good, it will be harvested, and then there will be soybean oil."

Han Zhixian didn't care whether the lieutenant chief was famous or the real lieutenant chief, he had to answer.

"Is it because there are many rivers that a lot of rice is grown? What about winter wheat cultivation? The lieutenant asked again.

"Wheat is not planted by rivers or roadsides, but there are many plains in Mengcheng County, and winter wheat will be graded land." Han Zhixian replied again.

"Soybeans that are planted after wheat is planted? Are all the depressions planted with rice? Are there any summer soybeans planted? The lieutenant continued to ask.

Han Zhixian looked at Li Chang seriously: "The depression is indeed planted with rice, but not summer soybeans, and the soybean yield is small, so it is mainly to eat a full stomach." ”

Li Chang bowed his head: "Have you ever thought of using the upper part of the depression to plant purple lilies so that they can be used to feed livestock?"

There is stagnant water in the depression, and our local depression is closed, and the bottom is relatively flat, but there is a slope when going down.

It is estimated that there is nothing to grow on the slopes, or only the industrious people will plant a little soybean.

It can be used to plant purple flowers, planted once, and can be harvested continuously, without careful care.

Whether it is horses, cattle and sheep, or pigs, chickens, ducks and geese, they are all willing to eat purple flowers, and it is also medicine.

If there are no seeds, they can be mobilized from my village and lent to the people of this county, and they must be returned. ”

"You're the head of the village?" Han Zhixian is sure this time, you are a captain......

"Hmmm! Xiaqiu Village Chief, Zhu Yichang. The lieutenant nodded.

"Han Zhixian, is it as the chief said?" Zhu Biao asked.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, yes, the depression grows rice, and in the circle above, some people will plant some soybeans, or they will be empty and can't plant rice." Han Zhixian replied.

"Then let the chief write back and fetch the seeds of the purple flower and the seeds, and you will ask the people to plant them.

Later, horses and cattle were transported from other places to the eastern position, and the fodder could be replenished in time when passing by.

This place is also the upper reaches of Fengyang County, which makes it convenient for boats to transport forage down.

After planting, when the weather is cold, it can bloom just once, it must be fast, and it will not suffer if it is planted. ”

Zhu Biao directly gave an order, let you plant it, you can plant, and the chief will not deceive the people of Mengcheng County.

"Yes, at the behest of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Han Zhixian respectfully responded.

The chief spoke again: "There are many bees in our local area, and after planting purple flowers, it is just right for bees to eat a good meal before the arrival of winter."

To vigorously develop bee breeding, His Royal Highness the Prince, there is a part of bee keeping in the booklet we have written, which can be transcribed.

The original beekeepers liked secrecy and were reluctant to pass on their skills to others, which was not conducive to development. ”

Zhu Biao agreed: "Okay, find someone to copy it now, and give it a good meal on the way after copying." ”

Someone next to him went to Zhang Luo to talk about it, and said that not only bees, but also the planting technology of purple flower lilies were also provided.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, if you keep bees, is it still too late to collect bees?"

The pawn was in a hurry, he belonged to a large family in the local area, and there were beekeepers in the family, and he didn't want others to participate.

And this is a political task, once it can't be completed, it will lose its head, which is different from planting purple flowers.

"Isn't it time for the autumn bees?" Zhu Biao asked suspiciously.

"Uh......" The pawn was stunned, the prince knew when to divide the bees?

"His Royal Highness the Prince, it is a bee division, but when the bees are divided, the beekeepers are unwilling to sell the bees, and they will be forced to harvest them when the time comes? I have bees in my family. ”

If the official tells the truth, he will be very embarrassed when the time comes, and the county yamen will force him to buy bees, and the people in the family will complain about him.

"Yes! His Royal Highness the Prince. Master Mao followed.

"Family power? Hum! Zhu Fan snorted coldly beside him: "It's okay, we have a lot of bees in the middle, right?" If you want to divide the bees, how about sending them here? ”

"His Royal Highness King Qin is thoughtful." The lieutenant agreed, and there were more and more bees in the village.

There is a constant supply of honey, and there is also royal jelly for the elderly and the weak, but not for the young.

It happened to be sold to Mengcheng County, and it was transported all the way, and there was a lot of honey in the place!

"Since this is the case, let's settle down, go back and discuss how to buy and sell, you can send a few people here to teach, and operate in the way of borrowing first and then returning."

Zhu Fan decided, even the manpower was sent together, how could the local family power drop? Don't let others keep bees?

The four officials should be in unison, and at the same time look at the chief in surprise, why do you have everything in your village?

Zhu Biao glanced deeply at the master bookkeeper and the warden, and then asked the chief: "Are there any mineral resources in the local area?" ”

"Yes, there is a lot of clay for burning bricks, and there is no shortage of burning cement, but the coal mine is too deep, more than 100 zhang, and some are 200 zhang.

There is coal in other places, which is not suitable for local well mining, and the coal is not bad, but unfortunately ......"

The lieutenant shook his head as he spoke, he didn't recommend mining, unlike that alkali mine, which was urgently needed and not available anywhere else.

"It's good to be able to burn bricks and cement, and use it to build silage ponds and houses, and coal is transported by boat. Build a kiln. ”

Zhu Biao also decided to improve the living standards of the local people, and the government promoted it.

The four officials once again promised that they would do a good job, and asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Qin to rest assured......

"Where's the side?" Zhu Biao also asked.

"Next to the white paulownia is better, medicinal materials, there are honey locust trees in the local area, in fact, the county is suitable for raising rabbits, catch hares and come back to raise.

Fish are not suitable for rearing and lack of human resources, but they can be fished, and it is more convenient to operate the fishing nets with blood nets. ”

The lieutenant didn't care about eating, and continued to answer questions.

Four officials: "......"

They are a little confused, where is the chief? Is it from my county? Why are you so familiar with my Mengcheng County?

"Raise rabbits, huh! Let's go back and drink! Zhu Biao was satisfied and picked up his wine glass.

The man next to him left again, and went to pick out the method of raising rabbits and the method of blood nets, and copied them, so that they could be given to the local officials.

Modular technology has this advantage, you can use whichever you need, and there is a catalog.
