Chapter 62: The Power of Seeds

Yun Zhao is looking forward to Xu Guangqi's package!

He didn't know what was inside, only that if all the few things he needed could come over, he would be able to improve the situation of the people in Guanzhong who were short of food.

Although it is not possible to do it overnight, he hopes to be able to plant a large number of plants after his own experimentation.

The mailing system of the Ming Dynasty was very developed, at least, Yun Zhao thought so, people could mail people and goods together, and it was very reputable.

Yun Zhao received his package, and at the same time received a person.

Yun Zhao was not interested in this person at all, he only cared about the full three carts of seeds.

"This Xiaolang, where is my Erlang?"

Yun Zhao pulled out a corn cob from the carriage and let out a long sigh of relief, then got into the carriage and continued to tinker.

A half-foot-long sweet potato was held in Yun Zhao's arms and was reluctant to let go.

"This Xiaolang, where is my Erlang?"

Yun Zhao raised his eyes to look at the old servant with white hair and said, "Where are the potatoes I want?" ”

The old servant laughed and said, "You mean Dutch potatoes?" ”

Yun Zhao frowned and said, "Have the Dutch already established a country?" ”

The old servant smiled: "No, it is still under the rule of the Spaniards." ”

"Where's my potato?"

"Dutch potatoes!"

"From now on, he will be called Potato!"

The old servant didn't want to argue with Yun Zhao, so he came to another carriage, opened a box, took out a fist-sized potato, handed it to Yun Zhao, and said, "The Dutch potatoes that the second master wanted, the eldest master prepared two hundred catties!" ”

Yun Zhao rubbed the rough skin of the potato and whispered, "It's too little." ”

The old servant smiled: "This is half of the output of the old man's experimental field." ”

"Have you accounted for the yield per mu?"

"Two thousand six hundred catties, however, this is the result of sixteen farmers carefully serving this acre of land, the eldest lord said, in Guanzhong, the sandy field of Tianzi can have about 1,800 catties, if Xiao Lang expects to plant in the dry field, the yield per mu will not exceed 800 catties."

It's easy to talk to this old servant, mainly because the way of speaking is a little figured out, whether it's the two new terms 'experimental field' or 'accounting', the two of them don't need to explain, they can understand it when they say it.

The old servant naturally discovered this, but he was not surprised, after all, this chubby child should be the disciple of the second master.

After listening to what the old servant said, Yun Zhao was somewhat disappointed, compared with the average yield of 8,000 catties of potatoes per mu in the village he helped poverty, the degree of shrinkage per mu was too great.

"Xiaolang, where is my Erlang?"

Yun Zhao scratched his ears and said, "Mr. said he was dead." ”

The old servant was not surprised by this sentence, and said again: "Please tell Xiaolang, where did my Erlang die?" ”

Yun Zhao pointed to the front yard of the Yun family's mansion and said: "I died in the school, I woke up once in the morning, I ate a lot of food, it is now noon, and I am estimated to be dead again." ”

The old servant smiled slightly, thanked Yun Zhao, and went straight to the school.

Yun Meng and his people had already unloaded all the goods on the carriage at this time, and they were all spread on the ground.

The number of potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes is the largest, and the rest are all small bags, small bags of seeds, many Yun Zhao don't know, but, pepper seeds, Yun Zhao still knows.

In the days of waiting for the seeds to arrive, Yun Zhao, the cellar where the seeds were stored, had already been dug up.

Seeing the things go down to the cellar with his own eyes, Yunfu personally locked the cellars and hung the key on his waist.

It is best to hand over the valuable things to Yun Fu for safekeeping, and until now, Yun Zhao has not been able to find where the Yun Clan's arsenal is.

"What are these things for?" Yun Fu looked at the cellar, and then at Yun Zhao, this was the first time he had found that Yun Zhao valued one thing so much, at least, the two silver ingots in his arms were picked up by him yesterday.

"If you get it right, these things are a life."

Yunfu nodded, squatted on the edge of the cellar and began to smoke, looking like he was not ready to leave.

When Yun Zhao returned to the school, the gentleman had obviously cried, and the old servant was crying even more, and the huge old man was about to convulse from crying.

Yun Zhao pulled out a plant planted by Mr. Wan Nianqing, and after loosening the soil, he planted two pepper seeds into it.

He didn't know if these chili seeds could sprout and produce chili peppers, in short, he was a little anxious.

Xu Yuanshou pushed a burden to Yun Zhao and said, "Repair the gate." ”

Yun Zhao pouted and said, "It's too little, it's not good to build the gate." ”

"Two hundred taels to build a gate is enough."

"It's not enough, just the two stone lions about a foot tall squatting at the door are more than that."

"What does the academy want the stone lion for?"

"Suppress evil spirits!"

Xu Yuanshou looked at Yun Zhao and said, "Two hundred taels should be enough to make a stone lion!" ”

"Then make one first?"

"Do one, I'm not afraid of slowness, I'm afraid of stopping!"

"Yun Meng is a good stonemason!"

"He can only chisel a lion into a dog!"

Yun Zhao saw a smile on Mr. Xu's face, so he waved his hand and left the room.

Mr.'s mood has improved, and it seems that he and his brother are not without feelings, but the knots in his heart can't be solved.

Mother is directing the family to transfer the grain in the love treasury to the mountain, and the government is about to come to harvest the autumn grain, and it is not appropriate to put too much grain in the house.

The family has money, and the mother's confidence is not ordinary, so the high wall at the mouth of the valley is thickened.

In the evening, Yunxiao, who was like a thin bamboo pole, came back with a wooden box, opened the wooden box and showed it to Yun Zhao, Yun Meng, Yun Hu, and Cloud Leopard, and then handed it to a bandit to take out.

"Kill Monk Peng so soon?"

Yun Zhao was a little puzzled, according to his estimate, this matter still had to take a lot of effort.

"The head was brought by Monk Peng's wife."

"What a ruthless woman!"

"You should say that she is such a bold woman, she didn't let his brother come to exchange money after killing her husband, but came with her own head, which is considered a smart one."

"You let that woman go?"

"No, she only killed her after killing her brother."

Yun Zhao yawned and said, "Who is going to take over the Yukou of Chang'an County?" ”

"Yun Jiao went, Monk Peng's second and third masters were killed by Yun Jiao, and the rest of the people were from us."

"Move the people out and put them all in Qingyu, build a reservoir there, and open up the wasteland! I want those lands next year. ”

Yun Zhao thought about it for a moment and made a decision.

"Qingyu can't support less than 5,000 people."

"If you use all the grain and grass that Monk Peng brought there, can you survive a year?"

Yunxiao nodded and said: "If you can hold on, it is more hard, these years, it is good to be alive, no one will complain about the hard life." ”

Before Yun Zhao entered the mansion, he said to Yun Meng: "If you eat my family's food, you have to participate in military training, and everyone will practice, regardless of men and children, women or old people!" ”

"Full practice?"

"All the exercises, the imperial court has ordered the formation of a group practice, so use this name."

"We're thieves, aren't we?"

Yun Fu interjected on the side: "Can you tell who is the group training and who is the thief, do you expect those officials and masters to be able to distinguish clearly?"

Yunmeng, Chang'an, and Lantian counties are connected into one, this is a very important thing, and the young master has moved the people in Monk Peng's old camp out, so it will be convenient for you to rule the Yukou of Chang'an County.

This year and next, don't treat those people harshly, don't let them eat too much, give food every day, don't be afraid of trouble. ”

Yun Zhao listened to Yun Fu's words, smiled slightly and entered the door.

Mr. was in a mood today, and he didn't have time to teach, Yun Yang went to the city wall construction site again, Yun Shu went to the mountain to dig yams, and Huang Jing went, which was the staple food of their brothers in the winter.

Yun Zhao looked back for a long time before he found Qian Shaoshao behind the gate.

"Can't you just stand in the sun?"

"It's not good, the girls in Mingyue Building, my mothers dislike me for being unlucky, I can't always be seen by them, you don't know, I lived in my sister's skirt for a while."

“…… No one is beating you here. ”

"I'd better be careful, don't worry, my ears are very pointy, as long as you call me, I will definitely be able to hear."

"What did you just hear?"

"Monk Peng was killed by his wife."

"Are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid, it's not to kill my sister!"

Yun Zhao dug out his ears and said helplessly: "Do you want to practice martial arts?" ”

"I've practiced!"

"Practiced? Who taught you? ”

"An old swordsman in Xi'an, he wanted to trick me into going with him, and I didn't go because my sister was reluctant, but he taught me a lot of things, such as how to hide."

"Why didn't you help your sister when she was snatched away by Yunhu?"

"I can't beat it, but I remember what Yunhu looks like...... I'm going to wait for me to grow up, and I'll come to Yunhu and rescue my sister. ”

Yun Zhao looked at Qian Shaoshao's big black and white eyes, and couldn't help but shudder, if he hadn't helped Qian Duoduo find her brother, God knows if he would have been targeted by this guy......
