"It's just my second brother. You can barely write with calligraphy, and you can only write the Chinese characters at hand. How can you be a great scholar?" Zhang Tianhong naturally said that his second brother's ability is full of knowledge, and he is even knowledgeable about heaven and man.

They can all be called it, but brush calligraphy and traditional Chinese characters are the basic skills of intellectuals in the old era, and these two points? As a modern person, Liu Baiyu is more like that...

"Brother, you don't know this! In fact, the key to this thing is to cater to the needs of scholars. No matter what scholars think, I will throw this book out first, and it will naturally make a good impression among all scholars!"

Liu Baiyu took a book from the plane merchant system exchange office, took it out of his sleeve, and threw it to Zhang Tianhong.

"How is this possible?! Second brother, please don't draw tigers instead of dogs!" Zhang Tianhong also said this out of emotion. The ideology of the late Ming Dynasty was very strange. The official government used Zhu Xi's Neo-Confucianism as its guiding ideology.

Most of the small officials are fans of Xinxue. This situation has caused the Confucian theory of the entire society to be in a state of great division and great turmoil. Basically, there is no doctrine that can be unanimously recognized. Of course, it is Confucianism who scolds Wei Zhongxian for eunuchs.

The mainstream thinking is correct, but scolding Wei Zhongxian may cause you to get slapped, and secondly, this thing can only be exchanged for the title of righteous man, which is very different from the Great Confucianism!

But Zhang Tianhong was immediately attracted when he saw Liu Baiyu's "masterpiece"!

Did Liu Baiyu write about some Confucian principles? No, the cover of this book clearly says the content, called "Agricultural Works Complete Book"! This tone is really shocking! Can the two words of the whole book be used casually?

Zhang Tianhong originally wanted to persuade Liu Baiyu not to be too harsh, but later he felt that Liu Baiyu was the reincarnation of an immortal, so he still wanted to take a look!

You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it! Zhang Tianhong was completely attracted. Liu Baiyu talked to him several times, but ignored him. He was already fascinated. Although he was riding a big donkey very docilely and walked forward smoothly.

Still, Liu Baiyu pulled Zhang Tianhong's donkey and slowed down...

As for that, aren’t they just soil pesticides, soil fertilizers, and some unusual uses of plants? Well, there are also breeding projects such as crayfish and tilapia. Their characteristics are low investment and quick results. They are all about treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

Method. Liu Baiyu felt strange that this [Agriculture Encyclopedia] was just a scam. The content contained in it were some strange substitutes made by local methods in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China when there were no pesticides and fertilizers, plus some local characteristics after the reform and opening up.

, and it is still controversial whether some of these things should be promoted. It is not news that farming projects such as crayfish and tilapia may cause biological invasion.

All in all, this book that Liu Baiyu plagiarized in modern times and then made a big splash in 2014 may be kept as a file by the agricultural technology department, and ordinary people will get it. This so-called "Complete Book of Agriculture" is a scrap purchase

The station’s fate is up!

However, for Tianhong, a land advocate in the late Ming Dynasty, this [Agriculture Encyclopedia] was extremely shocking! As I said before, people in this era can't even make the most basic compost, let alone collect materials.

Simple, effective, high-end, foreign-style and high-end things like earth-made ammonia, horizontal terraces, impact well drilling, and wind pumping. And the brief introduction to high-yielding varieties such as corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes made Zhang Tianhong feel like he was entering.

Entering the fantasy world, it took a long time to react!

"Second brother, although I have never heard of the names of corn, sweet potato, and potato, I have seen the real ones. However, the yield is limited compared to brown rice. It is not as powerful as you said, second brother!"

Zhang Tianhong said doubtfully,

Let’s do some popular science here. Corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes are not as powerful as many time travel books write. In fact, generally speaking, there are considerable differences in temperature, humidity, etc. between the place of origin and the place where the plant is introduced. It must be passed through for more than ten years.

It takes years or even decades to "domesticate" varieties to produce high-yielding varieties that are adapted to the local climate.

Not to mention, sweet potatoes and potatoes are not ordinary crops. Or to be honest, the cultivation of these two plants in ancient times is not the same thing as modern cultivation. The yield cannot be copied mechanically. Let’s not talk about pesticides and fertilizers.

, let’s just talk about the so-called seed detoxification, which is not something that ordinary time travelers can do.

Sweet potato detoxification is to remove the viruses contained in sweet potatoes and restore the growth nature of sweet potatoes. Experiments have proven that after detoxification, the yield of sweet potatoes per acre can be increased by more than 80%. The main ways in which sweet potato viruses transmit diseases can be roughly divided into four

There are three types of virus transmission, namely contact virus transmission, insect virus transmission, nematode virus transmission and fungal virus transmission. Mainly insect virus transmission is mainly caused by insects. Such as: aphids, leafhoppers, whiteflies, beetles, etc. Are you faint? A simplified process is required

There are several thousand words, but the author dare not go into detail, lest it be said that I am posting information to make up the number of words...

Maybe a time traveler can overcome these, but the problem is that detoxification technology is a high-tech technology now, and farmers themselves can't do it yet! Could a solitary time traveler do this in ancient times?

Potatoes, like sweet potatoes, also need to be detoxified, and they are prone to degradation in areas with higher temperatures, so they need to be introduced from areas with cold climates...

All in all, if Liu Baiyu didn't have the platform of the plane trading system, and living materials could be exchanged in large quantities, anyone who wanted to rely on modern high-yielding crops such as corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes to survive the food famine in the late Ming Dynasty would have basically died.

Why, you damn stupid!

"That thing requires a high-yielding variety from the fairy world, and if you keep the seeds for a few years, they may become low-yielding. But, of course, for the elder brother, he can have as much as he wants, but for others..." Liu Baiyu smiled meaningfully.

"Then it depends on whether he gets along with his second brother!" Zhang Tianhong immediately understood that Liu Baiyu was an upright conspiracy. He would not give seeds to anyone who caused trouble for him. Except for a few die-hard poor people, most scholars

Aren’t they all landlords? Even if the landlords these days have no sense of moral integrity and are still in trouble with Liu Baiyu after learning his agricultural techniques, you can’t do without high-yielding seeds, right? Isn’t this stupid?

"And this [Encyclopedia of Agricultural Affairs] is only the first wave. I have a second wave, which is aimed at officials! It's called [Encyclopedia of Government Affairs]!"

"[Complete Book of Government Affairs]! This tone is really..." Although Zhang Tianhong already admired Liu Baiyu quite a lot, the words "Complete Book of Government Affairs" had a big impact on Zhang Tianhong, who wanted to be an official but never became one.

However, when Zhang Tianhong opened the "Complete Book of Government Affairs" and took a look, he had to nod his head. It was indeed a "Complete Book of Government Affairs" worthy of the name! It covers the construction of water conservancy, appeasing the people, establishing security, and financial auditing. If you read it thoroughly, you will be sure to

Not only is it more than enough to be a county magistrate, but it is also a sure thing to be a famous minister.

In particular, Liu Baiyu's book emphasizes the psychology of the lower class people in ancient times and data management. These two things were very lacking in ancient government management.

From a modern point of view, as a city manager or senior civil servant, if you don’t understand the psychology and data management of ordinary people, you will basically end up with problems every minute and be kicked out. However, in ancient China, especially the imperial examination

After that, these two points are really beyond the reach of almost every official!

Why? This is inseparable from the imperial examination system. When the imperial examination system first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, there were famous doctors, famous arithmetic and other practical sciences. After the development of the Ming Dynasty, future important officials were studying hard.

If you become a Jinshi as early as possible, how can you have time to practice and seek knowledge? This is the same as many people only understand a lot of common sense in society after going to college. If this is just the case, the problem is not big. After all, many people go to college.

Only then did I realize that society is quickly integrating into society. As long as there is a desire to integrate into society, this problem is not a big problem.

But the problem is that there are many hidden rules in the imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty, two of which have a very big impact. One is the phenomenon of child prodigies. This child prodigy is just like the fourteen-year-old top scorer in the college entrance examination today. It attracts attention. But there are

A little dark place is a tacit understanding. In a mature bureaucracy, no matter what social system it is, two points are very important. One is seniority. The younger you are, the earlier you enter the officialdom, and the easier it is to be promoted.

, after all, except for a few people with great hands and eyes and super abilities, everyone is actually at the same level. Things condensed from hard work over time are very important. After all, the teacher is the father of the students. You have become the examiner of the imperial examination.

If you choose an older man and then retire within a few years, wouldn't it be a waste of the best opportunity in officialdom?

The famous chief prodigies of the Ming Dynasty include Xie Jin, Yan Song, Yang Tinghe, Li Dongyang, Zhang Juzheng and others. These people are good and evil, regardless of their merits and demerits. The fame of young people is related to the phenomenon of child prodigies.

The second reason is seniority. In the Ming Dynasty, imperial examination scholars were divided into three classes. The first class entered the Hanlin Academy directly, the second class were Hanlin Academy concubines and obtained preparatory qualifications for the Hanlin Academy, and the third class were entrusted to local grassroots officials or other positions.
