If there is the endorsement of the imperial court, the promotion of agricultural tools will undoubtedly be faster.

Moreover, for the large-scale promotion of this new agricultural tool, administrative offices at all levels will definitely provide certain preferential terms to benefit the people. In this way, the people will benefit, and for the court, by improving production efficiency, more wasteland can be reclaimed.

Even if each independent family only cultivates a small amount of land, the annual increase in food production brought by such a large empire is extremely considerable.

Daxia has been a country for hundreds of years, but it still has very strict control over the expansion of the land of the powerful. Most of the land of the powerful is given by the court. Once the rich and powerful are found to be illegally enclosing land, they will lose their lives or lose their official positions.

Dismissal of titles, fines of property, and the strictness of Daxia's laws are almost comparable to those of Daqin in Qixun's previous life.

Under this kind of strict control over land policy, unless there is an extremely serious natural disaster and the local government fails to treat it well, there will rarely be large-scale refugees. People in various states live in relative peace. This is the reason for the strength of the empire.

foundation.

Unfortunately, being able to live in peace may not necessarily lead to a happy career.

Low productivity has made farming difficult.

The life of a farmer is really hard.

Even though it is close to the mountains, people can still get food from the mountains in times of disaster. In Yanjia Village, where few people die of hunger, there are not many families who have more than enough food.

Think about the past life. Not only did flower growers not have to pay agricultural taxes, but the state also provided various agricultural subsidies to farmers to ensure arable land. In addition, except for some private land that was too small and unsuitable for mechanical farming, ordinary people cultivated it at home.

Apart from some vegetables for home consumption, almost all of the grain-growing fields are farmed mechanically.

Qixun thought about his ancestral home, which he had visited once in his previous life, and the neat and beautiful Anhui-style villas with white walls and gray tiles in the countryside. He thought that if one day, the people of Daxia could live like that.

Then this world must be a world worth cherishing.

The dream is too far away and almost out of reach, but starting from scratch, isn’t it worth the effort?

Qixun always wants to do something.

So when she thinks about farm tools, she feels a sense of urgency.

It's not that she doesn't know that her own improvement of some production tools may not change much. What can really improve people's lives are top-down policies that benefit the people, but these are beyond her control.

She can only do what she can.

That's why I was disappointed that King Yu ignored the plow.

She discovered that Daxia's emphasis on agricultural production was undoubtedly weaker than its emphasis on military affairs.

Those in power naturally know that agriculture is the foundation of the country, otherwise there would be no policy of strictly prohibiting land enclosures. However, the imperial court only thought of ways to control the situation from the top through government decrees and laws, but could not come up with specific downstream methods to increase productivity and increase food production.

In fact, she completely misunderstood Xin Bujiang.

Xin Bujiang was not the kind of prince who grew up in a greenhouse and had never seen the outside world. He only knew how to enjoy the royal wealth. Of course he could see the role of the new plow, but he was in the military and could not reach out to civil affairs.

The promotion of a new type of plow is a big deal, whether it is small or big.

All matters related to agriculture are actually no small matter for people of their status.

The reason why he didn't mention it was because he knew that since Qixun wanted to make such a thing, it must be tried in Yanjia Village. If the effect is good, it will naturally spread from Yanjia Village to the surrounding areas. As long as the local county magistrate doesn't have a lot of ideas in his head

, this kind of thing that can undermine political achievements will not be let go.

And as far as he knew, the Linjiang County Magistrate was no idiot.

That was Li Xingjian, the youngest son of the Li family of the Duke of Qi in the capital. He had a reputation for urinating, and he was a practical man with both talent and intelligence. He passed the Jinshi examination in his early twenties, stayed in the Hanlin Academy for three years, and then cycled through the six departments.

Only then was he released for training. Once he made some political achievements, he would be indispensable for at least a third-grade civil servant.

He has been in office in Linjiang for more than three years, and Linjiang County has been managed fairly well. If he serves for another three years, if his performance is not bad, he should be promoted.

The eldest son of the Duke of Qi is his biological brother, and he has the support of the Duke of Qi. If he has good political achievements and is promoted again, he will probably become the fifth-rank county administrator. A promotion of one or two levels will be too much for him.

It is not unusual for the children of rich and powerful families.

If Xin Bujiang didn't believe it, Li Xingjian would let it go if there was such an opportunity to squander political achievements at a bargain price.

That's why he didn't mention the new plow.

"Didn't you say that farming is important and a good plow can help a lot? So after I saw the drawing, I made it when I had nothing to do. The ready-made wood is quite simple to make according to the dimensions of your drawing. I will polish it tomorrow

It can be installed in just one click, but the iron rake marked on it can only be customized in the county."

Speaking of this, Brother Monkey felt quite regretful: "If I had known that I had coaxed that old man from Taishang Laojun to learn some skills in refining weapons and elixirs from him, now I wouldn't have to run to the blacksmith shop to do anything. I would be able to do it for him."

It’s over.”

But thinking about the Nine-turn Golden Elixir that he secretly ate, Brother Monkey suspected that he probably couldn't coax the old man Taishang Laojun.

Qixun comforted her Brother Monkey: "Don't be afraid, the second brother really wants to learn. Although I don't know how to make weapons, I still know some of the craftsmanship. When we have the conditions in the future, let's try it ourselves."

Brother Monkey was involved in building a plough, so Qixun took some pen and paper from the West House and began to draw a threshing machine.

While Brother Monkey was working, he reminded her: "Didn't you say we were going to make a carriage? If you have time, you can draw the drawings first. Recently, I have been rushing to finish it. After finishing it, I have to paint it. Didn't I do it a year ago?

Are you in a hurry to use it?"

"Okay, I'll draw it today."

When it comes to donkey carts, your own travel tool, you have to make one that looks low-key on the outside but has luxurious features on the inside.

If you want to ride comfortably in a car, shock absorption is a must.

This reminded her of the need for springs.

Even though a spring may look like a simple and curved piece, in fact, the current forging technology may not be able to meet the material and process requirements.

I hope the old masters at the two blacksmith shops I frequent can be more helpful.

In the winter afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, and the mother and son of the Yan family were busy with their own business. Qixun and Brother Hou stayed in the west room, while Lingsu prepared medicine in the main room. After earning one thousand one hundred taels from the uncles and nephews of the Xin family, Lingsu

Su felt that Xiao Xun reminded her about the pills and it was worth giving it a try.

However, the medicinal materials required for some prescriptions are precious. If you want to sell them to ordinary people, the cost will be too high. You have to replace them with common medicinal materials with similar medicinal properties.

She can only try the preparation first, and if the effect is good, she can finally decide on the prescription.

Gong Yumingxi was sitting cross-legged on the kang, with his pen and ink on the kang table, sorting out some classics and poems from previous lives.

It would be a pity if those splendid cultures were not handed down to future generations.

Even those literary and moral sages who disappeared in the long river of history never existed in this time and space.
