"We're asking the officials you sent back, not when the officials said the prince's team would come back."

Queen Ma hugged her eldest grandson who was about to throw herself into the water and glared at Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Mining, we are reluctant to kill, isn't it a good grandson?" Zhu Yuanzhang grinned at Zhu Xiongying.

"Hey! Good! Well! Hey, hey, hey! Zhu Xiongying responded.

"Uh......" Listening to the words of the good grandson, Zhu Yuanzhang always felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't say it for a while.

However, what he said about the official's handling of the situation is true, and there are men over the age of 14 in the officials' families, who follow them into the mine, and the women are there to help cook and wash clothes.

Normally, they should be killed, and the family members are exiled, and the survival rate of exile is generally about 50 percent, and the survival rate is even lower if there are young children in the team.

He already belongs to Kai'en, at least he doesn't die when he mines, and he is not tired to death, and he is treated the same as normal miners, but he is not paid.

"Go back and check the situation of Li'er's fiefdom, the second child went to the fiefdom of Xi'an Mansion and caught people, and the fourth child was also arrested, is it okay for the third one?"

Queen Ma was talking to Zhu Yuanzhang while feeding the meatballs in the dumplings to her eldest grandson.

The baby estimated that his mouth was not opened properly, and a quarter of the meatballs were still falling out after eating, and he stuffed his mouth with his small hands, and his fingers were stuffed in, and the meatballs fell out with saliva.

"Hahahaha......" Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing when he looked at it.

"Hehehehe......" The little baby doesn't know why this person who calls himself grandpa laughs, anyway, others laugh at him.

After eating a dumpling filling, he threw himself into the water and swam around.

"The amusement park is good, the children are not sleepy, bring them over to play for a while, and when they are tired, they will sleep, in the palace, there is no place to play."

Queen Ma watched a large group of children playing, and felt relieved, otherwise each child lived in a hall with his mother, and could not see outsiders, all of them were familiar palace maids and eunuchs.

Those women of Zhu Yuanzhang, if they often can't see Zhu Yuanzhang for several days, their emotions will affect their children.

Now they bring their children to come and contact with the women in Xiaqiu Village every day, and they are in a good mood, and this is the only opportunity for them to freely contact 'outsiders'.

The women of Xiaqiu Village were able to go out, know interesting things, and come back to tell the people in the palace.

Otherwise, they can only learn about the situation outside through the palace maids and eunuchs, and the palace maids and eunuchs have to ask the eunuchs who can go out to buy.

Eunuchs who can go out can get benefits, and talk about what they encountered outside today.

Now they don't give them benefits, the news channel of the harem is very hard, and even whoever wants to ask about things specifically, the woman from Xiaqiu Village will help ask the next day.

For example, do you know if there are any new patterns for embroiderers? Where's the new snack?

"It's not easy to have such a place! They will all grow up in the future. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the children, big and small, and felt some emotion for a while.

"I heard from the officials who were escorted back that the fief of the fourth child is considered to have laid a good foundation, and the second child can manage it by himself, and only the third child is left."

As Queen Ma spoke, she looked at Zhu Li, who was there to help her younger brothers and sisters.

"It's easy to build a fiefdom, and I asked Xiaqiu Village to send someone over to help. The key is that Beiyuan has to fight over, and they can't wait for them to catch their breath and fight us. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang talked about his son, but he still didn't worry about Beiyuan, those people, as long as they were given some time, they could recover, and they were very tenacious.

"I think it's the prince who has helped a lot of places all the way back." Queen Ma is reluctant to talk about Beiyuan at the moment, and she is in a good mood!

"Eat dumplings, when the people of the Ming Dynasty want to eat dumplings, they will eat dumplings, it is a prosperous age!"

Zhu Yuanzhang regards eating dumplings as a prosperous age, anyway, in his heart, it is impossible for anyone who wants to eat dumplings to eat immediately.

……

"When do people eat kebabs at will? Especially beef. ”

On the steamer, Zhu Fan thought of the same thing, eating, having meat to eat is happiness, and the requirements are very low.

Li Chang looked at the scenery on both sides of the strait while skewering: "It's not easy to eat beef, but it's simple to eat meat." ”

"How can meat be simple? It is not easy to raise sheep and eat grass, and pigs have to eat grain, at least wheat bran must not be lacking, and finally it becomes farming. ”

Zhu Fan brushed it along and found that it was still the factor of the field, and now the land is not good for planting, and the yield is low.

"The yield of crops is limited by soil conditions, seed conditions, climate, and pests and diseases.

The soil can be adjusted by various fertilizers, the seeds are cultivated with better yields, the climate cannot be changed, and pests and diseases have insecticidal things.

Chemical fertilizers and pesticides lie in large-scale production, and because we now have many natural resources, it is enough to use natural fertilizers and pesticides.

The problem of seeds is a long-term thing, and seeds can only be cultivated through better planting conditions, and the varieties are actually the same.

It's best to find more alien species and see which one is suitable, like the indica rice we grow now, which was actually obtained from elsewhere in previous dynasties.

Among them, Champa rice, after generations of cultivation, has become a separate variety suitable for cultivation in many places.

Guangzhou can achieve two crops in one year and three crops in two years, which is exactly the case, and the three crops in two years are mainly due to the trouble of turning over the land. ”

Zhu Biao followed and said: "Many lands are barren and have a small population, so they can't be planted, and then no one plants the land in remote areas, and there is no land in the prosperous places." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in a hurry, when you return to Yingtianfu, the village will make equipment for harvesting rice in the late autumn of this year, but it is not suitable for interplanting.

Rice is harvested first, and then jute, if you use equipment to harvest rice, what will happen to jute? It can't be divided and collected, and the technical requirements are too high.

Let's speed up, try to delay as little as possible along the way, let's see where there is a need, tell them the way, and leave immediately. ”

The lieutenant suggested that we should not wait for the Chinese New Year to respond to Tianfu, because the rice harvest would be finished, and the village would not have time to build equipment, so it would have to wait for the wheat harvest next year.

Obviously, the crown prince and the king of Qin were in a hurry and were not willing to delay longer.

"In this case, let's go all the way back, there are plains in the two places, let them plant and breed normally, and when they arrive in Shandong, they will still rotate wheat and wheat stubble soybeans."

When Zhu Fan heard what the lieutenant chief said, he decided not to take special care of the places on the way back.

Zhu Biao also agreed, isn't it planting, breeding, and then planting lotuses, chicken head rice, and other things where there is water!

Either it's a mine, and the mine tells the local area an approximate range, and they dig it out.

Since there is something better, time is precious, and I just happened to go home to see my son.

So the team rushed back at a normal pace, with occasional stops in between to resupply.

On the way back, when passing by Liaocheng County, Dongchang Prefecture, the chief gave a drawing.

"Your Royal Highness, there is oil here, basically at a depth of three hundred and fifty zhang, and at this location, there is still coal, but if you have coal, you don't need to dig so deep, it is mainly oil."

The lieutenant determined the approximate range, that is, it is relatively deep, and it is not cost-effective to dig other things, oil line, and the key is that there is natural gas here.

Just drill wells like in Sichuan, where there are deep natural gas wells that are used to burn the salt brine of the wells.
