Chapter 541: The Empress Dowager Wants to Abolish the Emperor (19)

The next day, the grand ceremony was very short, because everyone knew that the most important thing about the day was the autumn harvest ceremony, rather than talking about other things at the court meeting.

Therefore, the court meeting ended in less than a quarter of an hour. Then, all the ministers led by Wen Renlian to the imperial village to participate in the autumn harvest.

Qiaomu did not go.

Because she has seen high-yield grain seeds, and she has presided over the autumn harvest ceremony.

I have no interest in this kind of thing at all.

Why bother going out to bask in the sun for a whole day?

However, in the eyes of some literati, this is because the Supreme Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager have a bad relationship, and even such an important autumn harvest ceremony is unwilling to come forward at the same time. So several important officials in the court looked at each other and nodded, believing that the plan discussed overnight last night was still in trouble.

Maybe you can succeed.

Of course, there are some tricks.

It is obviously not suitable to make such suggestions suddenly at this time, so they can only press down on the plan and honestly participate in the autumn harvest ceremony.

Although this autumn harvest ceremony is very important, the specific process is still similar to the past. We will first say something grateful to the heaven and earth and the emperor's sage, and then announce it to begin.

The only difference is that the candidates for harvesting are different. In the past, the harvest of various crops in the imperial village were harvested by the employing farmers of the imperial village itself. However, this time, in order to facilitate the promotion and planting of good seeds in the second half of the year, Wenrenlian specially spent 20 cents a day to hire thousands of ordinary farming farmers around the capital to participate.

The purpose is to let them see the high yield of these grains. In this way, as long as they go back and promote it for a little bit, the promotion of new high-yield grains will be much smoother, at least in the area of ​​the imperial capital, it will definitely be much smoother.

If it spreads like this, it will take only a few years to spread the high-yield grains across the country.

With the announcement of the start of harvest, the hired farmers were allowed to enter the farm and saw the rice sea swaying in the wind like golden waves. These farmers were all older, over thirty or forty years old, and had at least ten years of farming. They may not have other abilities, but they still have farming experience.

Therefore, they were only closer. After a little look, they all opened their mouths in surprise, because they knew that the yield must be extremely high by looking at the golden rice ears of the naked eye. Anyway, it must be far more than what they planted themselves.

Several of the first reactions were not to use sickles to harvest, but to hold the heavy rice ears with surprise on their faces, carefully exploring the grains on the rice ears, and estimating the yield per mu.

Many times, even if some people don’t know how to calculate, as long as they have enough experience, they can still estimate the yield per mu of land by weighing it at hand and years of experience in adulthood.

These old farmers are obviously such people.

I only weighed the weight of a whole rice ear, and then looked at the other rice ears around me, and I immediately realized that the rice yield in this field is at least more than twice the rice yield of their family, and the yield per mu can reach six or seven stones, or even up to eight stones.

For a while, the harvest has not started yet.

Some old farmer laughed loudly.

Or laughed and cried.

Some people even wanted to secretly pick up a few handfuls of rice ears and put them in their pockets and take them home to plant them.

Everyone is discussing this matter.
Chapter completed!
