The Cannon Fodder of Fast Time Travel, She Chooses To Farm: Chapter 1033 The lazy and bad sister-in-law of a lucky girl from the farm 28
Chapter 1033 The Lazy and Bad Sister-in-Law of the Blessed Nongmen (28)
Therefore, the master was asked to stay at the county government office, and he came to Dawa Village to verify the truth of this rumor.
Since you have to report to the imperial court, you can't tolerate any falsehood, otherwise you won't be increasing your promotion, but calling for trouble.
"Meng Jin's family, Mr. Zhou is the county magistrate of my Qinghe County." Lizheng introduced enthusiastically, "He is honest and loves the people. He learned that our village is expected to have a bumper harvest this year, so he came here to inspect. Come along this way, count your fields The crops here grow the best, and I told Mr. Zhou the truth, the new type of fertilizer is exactly what you came up with. Mr. Zhou wanted to ask you a few questions in detail, so you don’t have to be afraid, just answer the truth.”
Xu Yin: "..."
Why are you answering truthfully?
In order to increase the yield, she eats dry rice openly and satisfactorily. In addition to the new fertilization method, the water for soaking the seeds is also mixed with a little bit of Diuling Lake water.
The truth cannot be told 100%.
Xu Yin summed up the experience and experience of farming in the previous few small worlds. In addition to the new fertilization method, she thought about a few ways to increase production:
"My lord, before the sorghum and soybeans were planted, the women specially picked the plump seeds, which have a good foundation and the sprouts that grow are particularly strong."
"When topdressing, don't get too close to the roots, and don't apply too much at one time. It's like eating a meal. Eating too much at one meal can make you feel overwhelmed. It's better to eat less and eat more. It's the same with fertilizer. It's better to apply thin fertilizer frequently, which is good for crops to absorb. .”
"Since my lord has been to the fields of the women's house, I must have seen the chickens and ducks in the fields. Chickens and ducks live on grass seeds and insects, and keeping them in the fields can not only weed, but also pests. In addition, the folks The housewife also caught a few gray magpies from the mountain, tied a long thin vine to their feet, and tied the other end of the vine to a branch beside the field. When they were hungry, they would fly into the field to eat the adults and eggs on the leaves. , perch on the tree when you are full. If there are fewer pests, won’t the crops grow better?”
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
Magistrate Zhou stroked his beard while listening and praised repeatedly.
Just now I heard Li Zheng say that the one who came up with the new type of fertilizer was actually a village woman, and I couldn't help muttering in my heart: How could a woman come up with a way to increase crop yield? Isn't this just nonsense!
At this moment, he swept away his previous contempt.
Even if what she said, Zhou Zhihai, who had never touched farming since childhood and only read sage books, couldn't quite understand it, but since the crops in her family's field are growing the best, and the rice yield per mu this summer has indeed increased by a stone and a half, I thought what she said was very reasonable!
write down!
Write down all the one, two, and three points she said!
The memorials of this quarter finally don’t need to rack their brains and think hard about the content. Isn’t the ready-made content here?
County magistrate Zhou suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and asked the accompanying scribes to quickly take out the four treasures of the study and record everything Xu Yin said.
Of course, he would not say that he wanted to write a memorial to His Majesty as a political achievement, but said that the people in other places did not know these methods, so they had to tell them and send someone to teach them so that they could also grow crops that increase production. Food, live a life without worry about food and clothing.
Lizheng followed the county magistrate's words and flattered him a lot.
At this time, Cui Mengjin came back.
After fertilizing the soybean field, he went up the mountain, cut a bundle of firewood, plucked a basket of hogweed, and found a clump of dogwood hiding in thorn bushes.
Remembering that the dogwood sent by Goudan and his daughter-in-law liked it very much, and said that if there was more, he could make medicinal wine. This time, he spent a little time, using a hatchet to push aside the thorny bushes, and picked off the whole bush of dogwood return.
Seeing that there are guests at home, he unloads the firewood and pigweed into the woodshed, and first accompany his wife to greet the guests.
The county magistrate settled his mind and was in a good mood. He drank wild chrysanthemum tea, tasted wild fruit slices and sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and chatted with Xu Yin and his wife with great interest.
I was shocked to learn that the pigs she raised were not ordinary domestic pigs, but wild boars caught in the mountains.
"Wild boar? Isn't that ferocious? Can it be domesticated?"
"My lord, it's wild boar cubs, not adult wild boars." Xu Yin said, "It's like chickens and duck cubs lost since childhood, growing up in the mountains, and their living habits will be closer to pheasants and wild ducks. Wild boar cubs were raised at home since childhood, and slowly grew up. You will be able to adapt to family life.”
The county magistrate suddenly realized, and hurriedly asked the clerk to write this down.
Then, he curiously followed Cui Mengjin to the backyard to visit the living environment of wild boars.
Not to mention, except for the fact that they don't look alike, they are really no different from domestic pigs.
Looking around the backyard of Cui’s house, he found several places that are different from ordinary houses: for example, the toilet in the latrine does not smell bad, the septic tank is covered with stone slabs and beautifully decorated with azaleas, and the compost is easy to use Pool…
"Write it down! Write it down for me!"
Every time he saw one place, the county magistrate Zhou asked the clerk to write it down.
These are all political achievements!
This trip to the country was worth it!
It is simply a ladder to send him to Qingyun!
County magistrate Zhou hurried back to retouch his pen, but did not stay for dinner.
Besides, he didn't think the country could offer him any good wine and food to entertain him.
But before leaving, he rewarded Cui Mengjin and his wife fifty taels of silver in front of Li Zheng.
He didn't intend to report the peasant woman who came up with the new fertilization method, but based on the farming skills and breeding methods mentioned by Cui Mengjin and his wife, he pretended to be the experience summed up by visiting the people in his jurisdiction, so that His Majesty could see him diligently. The government loves the people and works tirelessly.
He claims to be an upright and honest official, but no one appreciates him.
This time, he will rely on his own efforts to win His Majesty's favor.
In his opinion, it is really magnanimous for a poor couple in the countryside to buy the content of this memorial with fifty taels of questions.
Change to other county magistrates. It would be nice not to ask the people to collect exorbitant taxes randomly. Ask a few questions and reward them?
Zhou Zhihai felt that he was really a good official who was honest and caring for the people.
Xu Yin: "..."
Forget it, forget it, what do you care about with an official who wants to climb up!
It would be nice to borrow his hand to complete system tasks.
As for the silver prize that passed Ming Road, it happened to buy the wild lake pond in front of the house.
Cui Mengjin didn't have any opinion on this, but Li Zheng said a few words:
"The lake in front of your house looks big, but in fact the edge is very shallow. Only the center of the lake can really raise fish. I don't know what you two think about spending so much money on a lake that is useless. Is it close to home?"
Xu Yin said with a smile: "If you can't raise fish, you can raise something else."
"What are you raising? Ducks? Wouldn't it be better for the ducks to go to the river? There are more miscellaneous fish and shrimps in the river than in that lake." Li was grumbling.
Xu Yin smiled but said nothing, she planned to plant lotus root, shallow water lotus root is suitable for planting in relatively shallow lakes.
Go back and clean up the thatch around the lake and pond, leaving only wild flowers and plants such as wormwood, reed, calamus, and canna that can be used as ornamental plants. Plant lotus root, twig mushroom, and water chestnut in the shallow water area near the shore, and cultivate them in slightly deeper areas. Fish, shrimp and crab.
When the mother duck at home hatches the ducklings, build a row of duck houses by the lake. When the spring is warm and the flowers bloom, let the old duck take the quack ducklings to the lake to peck and play in the water. It would be wonderful to think about it.
