Chapter 134: Shennong pushes Mu He in the day
After hearing this, Zhang Shoufu relieved for a moment before coming back to his senses, and said lightly: "I hope that Your Majesty will forgive me, the output is really amazing, and the old minister was frightened." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”
When he was the first assistant, there were such two divine objects, not only the emperor can be famous in history, but he can also get a lot of light. Originally, I thought that in two years, I would write a book and say that I would put all my family property into it for distribution. In order to be able to leave a name in the history books, I didn't expect that there is no need to do it now, what can be more famous in history than to let the people no longer starve.
His eyes lit up and he was excited, but even so, he didn't forget to ask what were the disadvantages of these two plants. "Haven't said anything about the evils yet!" asked the eunuch.
"If it's a disadvantage, I don't know if it's a bad thing, both of which are tree-like and have a very high yield. But Shousuke should also know that it takes many years for trees to become talents. But once it starts to bear fruit, there is no need to repeat cultivation for decades or even hundreds of years, just apply some fertilizer and water to catch pests. The eunuch continued.
Hearing this, my mood slowly eased up, and I asked in a deep voice: "How many years does it take from planting to bearing fruit?" I was still a little apprehensive in my heart, afraid that it would take too long.
"It takes three years to bear fruit, and it takes five years to actually achieve the current level of production. The eunuch continued.
In other words, it has not been produced for three years, so it is still difficult to promote. It's easy for the rich to promote, but the commoners. Zhang Shoufu said to himself.
Of course, it didn't take so much time to plant these dozens of plants, and it was due to Fengyue who provided spring water with some acquired power to grow plants.
"Don't worry about this, those rich people, as long as there are interests, they will naturally flock to it, as for those civilians, there is no need to let them plant too much for the time being, each family has a few seeds, and there is always a place to plant them. Those farmers, which family has no spare land, but the land is not good, and the output is limited, so they usually use it to grow some vegetables for their own consumption. Even those landless hired peasants who went to reclaim wasteland, there were always some. These two plants are also site-selective, as long as there is soil, they can grow, and the demand for water is not very high. It's just that the water source is sufficient, and it can produce more, and if the water source is insufficient, the yield will be less. But even if the yield is small, it is much more than normal farming. When these two plants are promoted, Shousuke is probably not worried about whether there is enough food to eat, but what to do with so much food. The eunuch said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, what I'm worried about is that if these two plants are popularized, they will be easily learned by people from other neighboring countries, and when the time comes, I'm a little worried!" Zhang Shoufu suddenly thought of this question and said with a frown.
Hearing this, Emperor Qianling had something to say, he didn't think of the problem at the beginning, and when he thought about it later, he was very entangled, and later he went to ask Feng Yue.
"The biggest threat to our country now should be the nomads and the country of Akane to the south!" Feng Yue asked.
"That's true. Emperor Qianling thought for a moment and said.
"You should know the reason why the two countries are violating so frequently. Once those nomads are affected by disasters, a large number of people may starve to death among their tribesmen, and they have no choice but to come down and plunder. If they learn, you'll be happy. They are self-sufficient, so why do they need to spend their lives to run here and plunder. Even if you can't learn, it's great if you sell them more food when the time comes. Feng Yue said with a smile.
"As for the country of Na Qianxiang, it is indeed a simple desire to encroach on some land and increase the land area. But not only are they rich in spices, but the grain in the land is ripe three times a year, and there is no shortage of grain in the first place, so even if they learn it, what does it matter?"
After listening to Feng Yue's explanation, Emperor Qianling relieved his heart, and now said this to Zhang Shoufu again.
When Zhang Shoufu heard this, he felt that there was some truth, but he still decided to go back and discuss it with a few others to see if it was feasible.
After those ministers visited, they couldn't all control their mouths, and some of them told their mother-in-law as soon as they went back. Can something that has been told to a woman still be called a secret? In less than three days, the entire capital already knew about it, and in less than half a month, everyone who had a little ability in the world knew it.
Those wealthy merchants and those with a lot of land under their hands began to eagerly wait for the emperor to distribute the seeds.
This day happened to be Shennong's birthday, and Emperor Qianling specially chose this day to officially announce this matter, and at the same time told the inventors of these two grains. But he only said a name, not what he really looked like or where.
The reason why such a date was chosen is that Shennong's birthday is very suitable for announcing such a major event related to grains. Second, I also feel that Fengyue is indeed like Shennong, and can be called the god of agriculture.
As soon as the news spread, even ordinary people knew about it and looked forward to it. Even if some people don't believe it, they want to get one or two seeds and plant them in their own yard when the time comes, in case it's true!
Even if the yield is so large, only a few dozen seeds are not enough at all, and when it was originally designed, it was a little strange and magical to make the wheat tree, and it was really neglected that its seeds were really overlooked, but there was a circle of seeds the size of black sesame seeds around the periphery of the fruit. In terms of quantity, it is far inferior to Mu He, and it is not enough to plant Huangzhuang, let alone promote it.
Emperor Qianling can only ask for the wind to this side, the wind has no way, active promotion, it is also good for him, naturally can not be ignored, so it took a lot of acquired power to cultivate hundreds of tons of seeds, as for the seeds of the wheat tree, there were some mistakes in the original design, so the wind Yue let Emperor Qianling temporarily promote Mu He, as for the wheat tree, slowly multiply in the imperial village, and then promote it later.
After all, for ordinary people, there is no difference between eating rice and eating noodles, as long as it can fill the stomach, it is excellent, not to mention that the yield of Muhe is twice that of wheat trees.
The emperor personally carried it out, and the orders were naturally issued very quickly, and soon this huge political organ began to operate, and if it was divided, it was naturally powerful and powerful, and it was able to get a little more. Ordinary civilians are lucky enough to be able to get one or two. As for some slightly remote places, ordinary people may not even have them, but they are barely planted all over the world, and the real boom will probably have to wait until three or four years later.
