Chapter 621 Lantern Festival

Author: Loeva

Although Zhao Mo didn't say much about Qin Hanzhen's suggestion, it was clear from his expression that he had listened.

Qin Hanzhen felt in his heart that if Zhao Mo could really make some achievements in managing saline-alkali land and sort out a complete plan to present to the court, he would have made a great contribution. There are so many saline-alkali lands in the world, because they cannot be used for

Growing food has basically been abandoned. But in fact, it is not that saline-alkali land cannot be used to grow crops. If this kind of land resources can also be utilized, how much benefit can it bring to the court and the people? If a large number of

The saline-alkali land was transformed into fertile farmland. This achievement was enough to benefit Zhao Mo's descendants. Feudal society was based on agriculture, which was a great thing that benefited all people. As long as Zhao Mo did not commit major crimes such as treason, just this

His good reputation is enough to prevent him from being manipulated by anyone.

In fact, if Zhao Mo really wants to accomplish this task, it will be difficult, but it is not so difficult that he cannot succeed. Although Qin Hanzhen does not know much about the methods of controlling saline-alkali land, he has seen relevant documentaries and vaguely remembers it.

Some, so we can give him those ideas. As long as the research direction is right, Zhao Mo only needs to convene a group of agricultural experts and do more experiments on the actual saline-alkali land. Sooner or later, he will get good results. The only problem is

I don’t know how many years it will take “sooner or later”.

However, Zhao Mo is still young now, so there is no need to rush for a while. He can stay at the farm in the countryside and study farming. He can also avoid the annoying things in the capital and enjoy peace and quiet.

Zhao Mo felt the same way, but he had different ideas about the time it took to accomplish this and his plan to rely on this credit to obtain the title. Of course, he had no intention of telling Qin Hanzhen this idea.

Qin Hanzhen enthusiastically gave him advice: "We are going back to Beijing in the spring. Cousin Zhao, you want to go back with us. Although there are saline-alkali lands here in Nanjing, they are too far away.

Looking around the capital? It would be better to buy a larger farm, with fertile fields and saline-alkali land, and a house. You can usually live there, recruit people to do research, and it is convenient to travel to and from the capital. Once you have results

, you can report it to the prince right away. If you ask the prince to present your plan, the prince will be considered to have made a contribution, and he will definitely treat you better."

Zhao Mo smiled and said: "I already have Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, so it's okay to buy some more saline-alkali land. But if we want to... like what my cousin said, we need to do experiments, then we can't just do it in the capital. Nanjing,

There is also the area in Shandong that we passed through when we went to the south of the Yangtze River. In these places with saline-alkali land, we have to buy several pieces of land and conduct experiments at the same time. In this way, we can also know how to treat different climates and crops in different regions.

Will the salt method be different? Can the trees my cousin mentioned that can be planted in saline-alkali land survive in different places?"

This attitude is a good one. To do scientific research, you must have this rigorous spirit.

Qin Hanzhen immediately expressed his agreement: "Liaodong, Zhili, Shandong, Liangjiang, Northwest... If each region has an experimental field, the final research results should be more comprehensive. Anyway, saline-alkali land is very cheap, and there are many

It doesn’t matter if you buy it in different places. But you need to arrange the manpower well. You need to have trustworthy people to help keep an eye on it, so that you can conduct experiments in different places at the same time. Of course, since the experimental fields are distributed all over the place, you can also stop by

Agricultural experts are being searched from all over the country, uh... I mean veteran farmers who are good at farming and familiar with farming, preferably people who also have a certain understanding of saline-alkali soil. I think that in the northwest, I can call our family in Mizhi

Relatives, friends and family will help you keep an eye on it; you must have someone on the Liaodong side, I remember your mother has a dowry forest farm; on the Liangjiang side, we can ask the Qin family members or cousins ​​to help on the Jiangnan side; Zhili

It's easy to handle since it's close to us, but we don't seem to have many acquaintances over there in Shandong."

Zhao Mo smiled: "You don't need to worry about this matter, cousin. I know it well."

Having made up his mind, Zhao Mo seemed to be in high spirits, and he was so excited that he wanted to immediately find an old farmer to inquire. It was Qin Han who stopped him and advised him not to be impatient: "Spring will start soon, here in Jiangnan.

Spring sowing is about to begin everywhere. Are you afraid that you won't be able to find anyone who is proficient in farming? At worst, ask someone to ask around first. How about you first ask who has books on farming? You know almost nothing about farming.

It was only when I went ashore with Brother Jian that I learned a little bit about it. Since we are now preparing to carry out agricultural scientific research, let’s consolidate the basic knowledge first.”

Zhao Mo half-understood what she said, and he roughly understood it. He also realized that he was indeed a little impatient, and couldn't help but smile sheepishly. He turned to Qin Hanzhen and said, "I am impatient.

Don't worry, cousin, I have to wait until the Lantern Festival is over before I can go out and ask people about things. By the way, I remember that your Uncle Kewen in the fourth room of the Qin family seems to have a lot of books in his house, maybe about agriculture.

Yes. I’ll go to his house later and ask if I can borrow two copies to take a look at."

Qin Hanzhen nodded: "I asked Brother Qian to accompany you. He and Brother Zhang are good friends. With them here, I guess Uncle Kewen will be happy to lend you any number of books."

The matter was settled in this way, and the two fiddled with the crane lamp again, but everyone's attention was no longer on the lamp. Qin Hanzhen could roughly guess what Zhao Mo was thinking about.

She could get it out. As for herself, she was recalling whether she still remembered any agricultural knowledge that could be used as a reference for Zhao Mo, so that he could have an alternative plan in case he failed to achieve results on the saline-alkali land.

Unfortunately, greenhouse cultivation technology is now available. Although the level is not high, wealthy people can indeed eat fresh fruits and vegetables in winter. It is said that some people have built glass greenhouses, which can also grow precious flowers in winter.

There is no such thing as plastic film now, and the cost of building a greenhouse is too high, so we can only do it on a small scale. In the south, I heard that rice has been harvested three times a year or three times every two years. Potatoes, corn and other high-yielding crops are also grown.

Now. What kind of high-yield crops can be introduced now that are not picky about the land? Chili peppers are very good, but Shanxi already has Qinjiao, and secondly, this thing cannot be used as food...

Qin Hanzhen rubbed her forehead with a headache, thinking that maybe she also needed to look through agricultural books. Maybe it could inspire her?

Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo both had something on their minds, and as a result, they were not as enthusiastic as before in this year's Lantern Festival. The lantern festival in Qinzhuang was as lively as in previous years but small in scale, while the lantern festival in Jinling City was

It is very large, but I don’t know if it was affected by the chaos last year, but the atmosphere has become a lot cooler. This year, the people from the prefecture’s Yamen have obviously strengthened the public security management in the city. There are more soldiers guarding the city gate, and it is difficult to explain their origins.

Or those who don't look like good citizens are all blocked out of the city gate. All government and county officials have canceled their annual leave and patrol the city every day to prevent ruffians from causing trouble. Lanterns

There were government officials watching everywhere at the meeting, and the Qinhuai River area was forbidden to hold any more flower country ceremonies. In terms of excitement, it was incomparable to last year.

However, this kind of lantern festival makes people feel much more at ease. Many people in the city go out with their families to watch the lanterns, and they don’t have to worry about losing their children, because there are police guards at every intersection, and if there is any movement, they will

Someone came to ask. The lantern festival had been surrounded by soldiers for a long time. A kidnapper actually took the child out. If his behavior was slightly suspicious, he would be stopped. It didn't take long for the child's parents and family to come over. The kidnapper had no choice but to end up here.

The fate of being escorted to prison and exposed to the northwest wind.

Qin Hanzhen only felt that although there were fewer people coming to this year's lantern festival, it was much easier to walk on the road. She and Zhao Mo each carried a crane lantern, so they could travel around the lantern festival without having to bring too many entourages.

She walked, guessed lantern riddles, tasted snacks, and also participated in the lantern selection of the lantern festival. Although she did not win the first place, she still won a small prize. The prize was an exquisite wood-carved pen holder and a matching pen mountain. She put the pen holder

She gave it to Zhao Mo and kept Bishan for herself. She is now in need of Bishan envoys.

Zhao Mo fiddled with the pen holder in his hand that obviously matched Qin Hanzhen's pen holder. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he quickly put the things away.

The two of them strolled around the lantern festival. When they were tired, they returned to the private room in the teahouse that they had booked early. Unexpectedly, only the Huang family was in the private room. I don't know when Qin Bai took his old wife Niu to visit the lantern festival.

, Brother Qian stayed in Qinzhuang to play with his friends and did not follow. Qin Hanzhen originally wanted to let her grandparents see the prize she won, but now she had to hand it over in disappointment.

After putting away the green apricots, he sat down next to his cousin Wu Shaoying, poured tea and had snacks.

Wu Shaoying smiled and pushed the newly served Suzhou Dian on the table in front of Qin Hanzhen: "The Sudian in this store is very good. You have only eaten it twice in Suzhou, right? It's rare to have the opportunity to try it again.

, eat more. I'm afraid there is no such good restaurant in the capital. When you go back, I don't know when or what month you will be able to eat again."

Qin Hanzhen smiled brightly at him and began to eat the delicious and exquisite snacks.

Zhao Mo received the look from Wu Shaoying, hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly did not sit with them. He turned around and saw Huang Jincheng admiring the lanterns by the window. After thinking about it, he walked over to talk to him. The two sat by the window.

At the small table by the side, they were drinking tea, admiring the scenery, and chatting. Mrs. Huang Jincheng took her sister-in-law Huang Qingfang. She was admiring the two lanterns that she had just bought. When she saw Qin Hanzhen coming back, she also called her over.

They enjoyed it together and played with her crane lantern for a while. Qin Hanzhen saw Huang Qingfang looking at the lantern with curiosity and envy, so he promised to give her one in a few days. Huang Qingfang was very happy.

Wu Shaoying glanced at her a few times and knew that she was the daughter of the Huang family that Niu was interested in. He saw that she really got along well with Qin Han, she was young, beautiful, and her family background was impeccable, and he couldn't help feeling a little bit.

complex.

Covering my face, I didn’t sleep well last night. I was too sleepy at noon, so I took a nap before starting to code...
