Chapter 232 Opportunity arises
Xiangping Juntun
The three brothers of the Qin family went to the fields on the second day after returning from the war. Prisoners did not take a break.
After Qu Yuanli appeared, Lu Songli took out the iron rake again.
After the long iron rake appeared, it was very convenient to use oxen to pull it, break up the soil, rake the soil, and rake grass.
After the two farm tool samples were obtained, Mo Lianfeng submitted them to the top.
This matter is related to the autumn harvest of Liaodong County, and the people above attach great importance to it.
Subsequently, Liaodong County officials summoned all the blacksmith shops, worked overtime to make these two farm tools, and then distributed them. Quyuan pears and iron rakes became popular throughout Liaodong County.
It's just a bit wasteful.
The cattle in the entire Liaodong County have suffered a lot. They have been plowing in spring for many years, but they are not tired this year!
On this day, the Qin family was assigned a sowing job by Mo Lianfeng.
The three brothers of the Qin family all made meritorious deeds in supporting Liaoyang this time, but because of their status as exiles, all the credit was attributed to him.
Mo Lianfeng: It was very sudden.
Now he looks very pleased with everyone in the Qin family. This family is very popular with him.
Therefore, during this spring plowing, Mo Lianfeng arranged for them the easiest and easiest task of sowing seeds.
Ordinary people cannot get such a good job, let alone they are prisoners. Prisoners usually do the dirtiest and most tiring work.
But who made them too lovable? He just arranged it like this, what’s wrong?
If you have any opinions, tell him!
No matter what I told him, he didn’t listen!
Mo Lianfeng made a tour and pointed out a few workers. Finally, he looked at the diligent Qin family, nodded secretly, and then went to the steward's resting place with his whip.
Lu Songli was given a bag of rice seeds, and then she realized that farming at this time was all about direct sowing, not the planting method of raising seedlings first and then transplanting them.
They all sow seeds directly, and then reseed the seeds if they don't germinate.
Usually when replanting is done, the farming season has already been somewhat delayed, so the harvest of replanted rice is usually not very good.
In contrast, the rice seedling transplanting method has many advantages.
First, it can extend the number of fertile days, and second, it can reduce the amount of seeds used.
The second is to extend the growth period, increase light time, and increase yield.
In addition, reasonable and dense planting can maximize the use of photosynthesis, and under the same conditions, higher yields can be obtained.
Moreover, transplanting the seedlings after raising them can shorten the reproductive period. After raising the seedlings, they can mature one month earlier, making it easier to free up the land for planting crops in the second half of the year.
Lu Songli decided to talk to Mo Lianfeng about a new rice planting method called rice transplantation.
Her idea is very simple, which is to transfer knowledge so that ordinary people can increase the yield of their fields.
From the information she learned, she learned that the current yield of rice per acre of land is only two to three hundred kilograms.
You must know that this is the black soil of Northeast China. This output is a bit unworthy of its reputation as a granary for future generations.
After Lu Songli explained the rice transplanting method to Mo Lianfeng, she said, "Why don't you try it, Mr. Mo?"
After the appearance of Quyuan Li and the big iron rake, in Mo Lianfeng's eyes, Lu Songli was proficient in farming, and he valued her suggestions.
But she said that the stakes in this matter were too great. It was not a matter of one acre or two acres. If it was not done well, this autumn's harvest would be ruined.
"Master Mo only needs to take out two or three acres of land to try. This shouldn't be difficult." Lu Songli is not the kind of impatient person.
Mo Lianfeng immediately made the decision, "As you said, let's take out three acres of land and give it a try. You will be the one to guide us in raising seedlings in the afternoon."
"good."
At noon, the gongs and drums sounded, and it was time to call it a day.
The prisoners came to the edge of the canal in twos and threes to wash their hands and feet.
"So tired!" Qin Zhao muttered while stretching.
The other person next to him gave him a hateful look and left. The Qin family didn't know where they came from, and they were very good at managing things and Mo Lianfeng's favor was something they couldn't afford to offend.
Gu Zhang next to him was speechless. Sowing seeds is already the easiest job. You don’t even have to bend your back. Don’t you get hate for saying this?
Qin Zhao felt that he was extremely innocent. He was telling the truth. He was hurting and sowing seeds, which was quite tiring.
"Lao San, I'm back."
The Qin family had also finished washing, and Qin Heng greeted him.
As soon as Qin Zhao returned, he slumped down on a chair nearby, groaning and instructing Qin Yu to beat his legs.
I cried to my son about the hard work of farming, and took the opportunity to teach him that he should study hard with Aunt Six, as farming would have no future.
After beating his legs, he was also asked to beat his waist.
Qin Sheng couldn't stand it anymore, "Third brother, are you feeling weak?"
Qin Zhao was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "Nonsense, I am not weak, you are weak, your whole family is weak!"
Qin Sheng was speechless, "Aren't you included in my family? You scolded yourself too."
Qin Zhao was speechless.
At this moment, Lu Songli spoke, "Third brother, this day won't last long, cherish it."
What? No, there is something in these words. Qin Zhao reacted quickly, "Sixth brother and sister, we have not been here these past few days, what have you done?"
As he spoke, a crazy guess arose in his mind. Could it be that they were leaving the Xiangping military camp? But, is it possible?
Generally speaking, when prisoners arrive at the place of exile, they basically stay there until they die of old age. For example, their current household registration is in the Xiangping military camp, and there will basically be no major changes. Unless one day, they regain their status.
.
Their status as exiles is not so easy to get rid of. Unless they are pardoned by the emperor, which is not easy? Unless they have made great contributions.
Lu Songli smiled. A master always looks beyond the dilemma.
"Let's see, the results should be available in the next two days."
Qin Zhao only felt that her smile was a bit mysterious.
"Second brother, what have the sixth and younger siblings been doing these days?" Qin Zhao asked Qin Yan directly. They were not here. The sixth and younger siblings have always been very measured in doing things. She should discuss important matters with her second brother.
What's going on? Qin Heng and Qin Sheng both looked over, and even Shen Erniang, Cai Shi, Su Shi and others stopped what they were doing.
Qin Yan: He really knows about this.
"You'll know in two days." The sixth brother and sister discussed what they wanted to do. Their aunt was also present at the time. The main reason was that one of them was a second uncle and the other was a sister-in-law, so they needed to avoid suspicion.
The sixth brother and sister told him about her plan. Although the sixth brother and sister said at the time that they would give it a try, they might not succeed. They also said that this move was a precautionary measure, and whether it would succeed or not would depend on whether the three brothers of the Qin family could succeed in the battle of Liaoyang.
This was the first time he had seen the strategies of the six younger brothers and sisters. He felt that they were very forward-looking and had a good attitude.
She said at the time that if this plan worked, they would be able to leave the Xiangping military camp soon.
If it doesn't work, think of another way.
But she firmly believes that her eldest brother and third brother Asheng will stand out in this battle.
When he heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. She was quite confident in their brothers.
Qin Yan didn't say anything, but Qin Zhao kept pestering him.
Qin Sheng, on the other hand, looked at Lu Songli eagerly.
Lu Songli understood what he meant, nodded slightly to him, and told him after returning to the house.
Qin Sheng was happy, so he stopped pestering Lu Songli and ran to fetch water. There was not much water in the water tank. The Qin family had a large population, so they had to fetch a lot of water every day.
Lu Songli smiled after seeing it.
She has not been idle during this period. She has already seen clearly the opportunity for the Qin family, which lies in the conflict between the county governor He Xun and the county captain Le Guicai.
When the Xianbei army raided Liaoyang, she realized that an opportunity might have arisen.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, she will definitely work hard to catch it. As for that sentence, whether there is a date or not, she will fight for it.
When they were chatting last night, they also talked about Le Guicai. Qin Sheng told her that Le Guicai seemed to admire their brother.
At that time, she said in her heart that she was stable.
It's a pity that Wu Ren returned to Chang'an with the large army, but Liu Erxi's ability to do things is not bad. With him and Mo Bing, he should be able to get the matter done. Because the key to the matter is to spend money, and their ability to do things determines who gets smashed.
