In the inner house, the eldest grandson queen was accompanying Princess Changle to talk about herself, but Princess Changle's mind was involuntarily placed outside, her daughter was often by her side, and she was suddenly carried out, she couldn't rest assured, and couldn't help but look outside.

"Don't worry, with Merton and your father here, what else do you have to worry about." Empress Changsun looked at her absent-minded daughter, and naturally knew that Princess Changle was thinking about being a mother for the first time, and couldn't help but laugh.

"What should I do if a group of big men are rough and hurt their daughters? Liu E, go take a look. Princess Changle was uneasy, and stretched out her hand to instruct Liu E.

"Yes! Princess! ”

Liu E took the order to leave, and after a while, she hurriedly came back with a happy face and reported: "Congratulations to the princess, Your Majesty has personally named Miss as the county lord, and she also has a fief. ”

"Fiefdom!" Princess Changle couldn't help but be surprised, and looked up at the silent Empress Changsun, and then suddenly, I am afraid that the queen mother has already known about this.

Liu E nodded and said, "Young Master Xiao proposed to seal Miss's fief in Songjiang Mansion, and the head of the Zheng family proposed to seal Miss's fief in the grassland. ”

"You go to explore again to see if the seal is in the south or the north!" Princess Changle couldn't help but be curious.

Liu E left quickly, and hurriedly came back to report: "Back to the princess, Mo Hou chose the north." ”

"It's okay in the north, with thousands of hectares of grassland, it's just right to graze cattle and make milk powder." Princess Changle nodded, which was almost the same as what she had in mind.

Liu E said with a strange face: "Back to the princess, what Mohou chose was not ten thousand hectares of grassland, but millions of hectares of desert. ”

"Millions of acres of desert." In an instant, even the eldest grandson empress, who was not shocked by honor and disgrace, exclaimed.

Millions of hectares, or desert! No matter which one it is, it's unbelievable, but Mo Jiazi actually chose both at the same time.

As Liu E explored again, Merton's plan to control the desert came little by little, until Liu E held Mo Sha and put it in the arms of Princess Changle, and the mother and daughter were still like in a dream.

"Mosha!"

"Lord Jinsha!"

"What a blessed child."

Empress Eldest Sun looked at the sleeping Mosha, and couldn't help but smile, with such a father, her granddaughter is probably the happiest person in the world.

With the end of the banquet of the eldest daughter of the Mo family, the name of Mosha, the lord of Jinsha County, instantly spread throughout Chang'an City.

"A million fiefdoms!"

"Desert becomes green."

As the news spread one after another, Chang'an City instantly boiled again.

"With a million hectares of fiefdom, I'm afraid it's the county lord with the most fiefs in history." Quite a few people smacked their tongues.

More people snorted coldly: "Don't say it's the county lord, even the princesses of the past dynasties don't have so many fiefs." ”

How vast a million acres of fiefdom were, almost equivalent to a prince, and yet in the hands of a baby who had just completed the moon.

"What about millions of acres, even if I seal the eight hundred miles of Hanhai in the Western Regions to you, what can you do, what really shocks the world is the crazy plan of the Mo family to turn the desert into a green land, which is even more crazy than a madman." A literati is still in disbelief.

"If other people say this, they must be considered crazy, but for Mo Jiazi, it is not an impossible miracle." A merchant said firmly.

After all, the miracles created by the Mo family have long been unknown, although it is difficult to govern the Mu Us Desert, but just as the Mo family said, this desert has just formed, but there is a lot of precipitation, and it is the easiest desert to govern, plus the Mo family even regards the Mu Us Desert as his daughter's fief, which makes the world believe that the Mo family must have the secret skills to govern the desert.

"That's a million hectares of desert, it's not a small sand pile, maybe the Mo family can grow a few trees in the desert, but it is a fool's dream to turn this million hectares of sand into an oasis." More people expressed skepticism that Mo Jiazi's move was simply beyond their imagination, and it was no wonder that they were difficult to accept.

"Mo boy, you really have the secret skill of governing the desert!" In the Mo Mansion, the Great Si Nong Su Lingnon is impatient, and now the territory of the Tang Dynasty is not only the threat of wind and sand in the ancient city of Yulin, and the long-term cultivation has made the desertification very serious, coupled with the continuous invasion of the desert, from the perspective of the farmer, let alone the governance of the desert, even if it can trap the desert so that it will not expand, it is already a great achievement, not to mention the vast desert into green space.

Merton nodded and said, "All of this needs the help of the farmer." ”

Su Lingnon couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Mohou really thinks highly of the farmer, if the farmer really has a way, he will not sit back and watch the Mu Us Desert start from scratch little by little." ”

"The premise of wanting to control the desert is that there can be no overgrazing and reclamation around Yulin, otherwise the Mu Us Desert will be a lesson from the past, and everything the Mo family has done will come to naught, and these still need the coordination of Lord Su." Merton said solemnly. Su Lingnong was in charge of the Si Nong Monastery and had a decisive influence on agriculture, and with the coordination of the Si Nong Monastery, the overgrazing situation in the Yulin area could certainly be improved.

Su Lingnong nodded slowly and said, "It should be so, the old man will order Sinong Temple to focus on Yulin County, and the remaining grassland must not be allowed to continue to desertify." ”

Merton nodded with satisfaction and continued: "As long as there is no longer excessive reclamation, the method of controlling the desert is not difficult, it is nothing more than windbreak and sand fixation and grass planting. ”

"Windbreak, sand fixation, grass planting! Please also ask Mohou for advice! Su Lingnon bowed down and asked.

"The reason why the desert continues to erode is because the strong northwest wind constantly blows the sand south, and if you want to control the desert, you must plant trees, stop the wind, and fix the sand dunes, so that it is possible to plant grass and restore green space." Merton said solemnly.

Su Lingnon couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Everyone understands the truth, but it is extremely difficult to implement, the desert is deserted, extremely arid, there is no water, not a single grass grows, let alone planting trees." ”

Merton smiled mysteriously, "Who said there are no trees in the desert." ”

Su Lingnong pondered for a moment, and couldn't help but say in his heart: "What Mohou said is not plants such as poplar, salix, and cactus. ”

Populus euphratica and Salix are common plants in the desert, and the trees are tall and extremely arid, so if they are widely planted, they may be able to do wonders, and they are not difficult for farmers who control the cultivation of saplings.

Morton nodded and said, "Poplar sand willow is indeed a powerful tool for controlling the desert, but what makes Mo even more excited is another kind of tree, the Shuttle Tree. ”

"Shuttle Tree!" Su Lingnon couldn't help but be stunned, and after thinking for a long time, he came to mind the inconspicuous little tree in the agricultural book.

"Not bad! If you want to manage the desert well, the Saxon tree is the most important thing. Merton said.

"What's so amazing about this tree?" Su Lingnon asked.

Merton laughed, and couldn't help but think of the experience of stealing energy in the middle of the night in the future just to plant a Saxon tree in the desert, and he knew it well: "First, one of the miracles of the Saxon tree, in its seeds, the seeds of the Saxon tree are the fastest germinating in the world, and the shortest survival time, only two hours, but as long as you give it a little water, it will immediately take deep roots and sprout and grow." ”

"It's so amazing!" Su Lingnon couldn't help but be surprised.

"This is just one of them, the second is that in order to survive in the desert, the Saxon tree has a very developed root system, a small Saxon tree, only one zhang high, but its root system can reach as much as ten zhang square, and the sand fixing effect is excellent."

Su Lingnon was slightly puzzled in his heart, after what Morton said, this Suosuo tree is indeed extraordinary, but the sand control effect is not much different from that of sand willow.

"Third, there is a more miraculous feature of the Shuttle tree, that is, its well-developed root system will be accompanied by a precious Chinese medicinal material, Cistanche." Merton said solemnly.

"Desert ginseng, cistanche!" Su Lingnon was surprised and said, he had heard of Cistanche.

Merton nodded and said, "Yes, the so-called blessings and misfortunes depend on." It is precisely because of such precious medicinal materials associated with the Haloxylon tree, which makes the Shuttle tree suffer the catastrophe, the greedy herdsmen in order to get Cistanche, dry up and fish, directly dig out all the roots of the Haloxylon tree, take away the Cistanche, let the Haloxylon tree wither and die. ”

"Sure enough, as Mo Hou said, the spread of the desert is indeed a man-made disaster!" Su Linong sighed.

"However, if Mohou wants to plant a wide range of Saxon trees, isn't he afraid of the same encounter?"

Merton shook his head and said: "The ultimate goal of the Mo family is not Cistanche, but the sand fixation and windproof of the Shuttle tree, the Mo family will plant the Shuttle tree in the Mu Us Desert, and then use the farmer's cultivation method to artificially cultivate the Cistanche, the benefits of the Cistanche Mo family do not want, you can give it to the herdsmen, but the herdsmen can not exhaust the fish, after digging the Cistanche, you need to leave the roots, so that you can harvest it again in the next year, and you must also be responsible for the obligation to maintain the Shuttle tree." Some people don't know that if a Saxon tree is properly maintained, it can survive for a hundred years, and Cistanche can also be harvested for a hundred years. ”

"Woe is blessed, the Shuttle tree because of the Cistanche and misery, now because of the hands of Mohou, but the disaster into a blessing, the Shuttle tree instead because of the Cistanche and survive for a hundred years, in this way, the desert has been greened, the herdsmen have a harvest, no longer destroy the desert, but will take the initiative to plant and maintain the Shuttle tree, such a strategy, it is really shocking, Mohou please accept the old man's worship." Su Lingnon exclaimed.

Merton hurriedly turned sideways and said: "Master Su has praised it falsely, this is not Merton's strategy, but the shocking idea of the predecessors of the Mo family, and it is just picking up people's teeth and wisdom." ”

"The wisdom of the Mo family makes Su admire." Su Linong sighed.

Merton arched his hand and said: "Everything still needs the cooperation of the farmer, and the cultivation of the saplings and cistanche needs to be bothered by the farmer." ”

Su Linong said solemnly: "This is the honor of the farmer!" ”

This time, Su Lingnong was really sure that according to Mo Jiazi's method, it was not vain to govern the Mu Us Desert.
