Chapter 97 New Understanding of Lanling (Part 1)
The rent at home is based on the harvest. The more prosperous the crops are, the more the rent will be. Perhaps due to the heavy snowfall last year, the wheat crop in the Guanzhong area is generally strong this year, and the total output is 10% higher than last year. It is a rare bumper harvest.
Year.
The wheat at home has been harvested and put into the warehouse, and the official grain has been handed over by steward Qian in red and glory; since the wheat harvest in northern Guanzhong has just started, some craftsmen who do odd jobs have not been able to come back, and the paper making workshop and toilet water workshop have not yet returned.
Production could not be fully resumed, but the diligent two daughters had already gone to work; Ying was devoted to the design of the pavilion in the garden, unable to extricate herself. The palace finally returned to its former peace.
Lan Ling, who had not been seen for many days, finally appeared. Maybe it was the effect of the diet plan, maybe she really went to the fields to collect wheat and exercised a lot, maybe it was the effect of her heart. She felt that she had lost weight, just a little bit thinner than before.
"I've lost weight," Ying found an excuse to sneak away to oversee the garden. Only Lan Ling and I were left in the study. She said sympathetically: "No matter how busy you are, you must pay attention to your health. Your body is your capital."
Lan Ling "touched" his face, spread out his arms and looked down at himself, "I have been following the meal recipes you gave me. Didn't I say I need to exercise more? Now I spend a lot more time fencing in the morning and evening, and my body is covered with porcelain.
Piao Ci, I feel much stronger than before, and I even crushed a jade bowl." He stretched his arm in front of me, "Look."
He pinched the muscles on Lanling's arm and then pinched his own. It seemed that I was still a bit softer and boneless. "Indeed! Just keep the original amount of exercise. There is no need to increase it. It looks just right now."
But she, if she practices again, although she still can't beat me, the gap is too big and it will affect my self-confidence. "Be careful in the future. The jade bowl is expensive. It would be a pity to waste it. Don't use valuable things to practice your hand strength."
"Yes," Lan Ling nodded obediently, leaned lazily on the soft chair, and asked softly: "Do you miss me?"
"What are you thinking about?" He said hard and laid out some information that he had compiled a few days ago with an irrelevant look. "I have been so busy these days that I have thought about it several times and I can't even think of what it looks like. I'll give you everything.
Are you ready? Copy it now or take it back and copy it?"
"You have no conscience! I knew you were going to say that." Lan Ling glared at me, smiled and rolled up the materials I had spread out, raised his head and blinked, his expression suddenly became kind, "Take the things back and copy them.
I miss you so much after not seeing you for a long time. The boy who was dark and thin when I saw you last year has grown so big, fair and even fatter in the blink of an eye."
"Go!" I was amused by Lan Ling's vindictive demeanor and tone, "I learned the same as Grandma Wolf, disgusting and dumbfounded." On the plate, I took a piece of beef jerky brought by the two subordinates who reported the news to Qin Yu the day before yesterday, and handed it to him.
Lanling, "Try, try the authentic Tuguhun dried meat, brought here by Qin Yu."
"Not bad!" Lan Ling chewed for a while and praised, "They say that the bitter cold land in the northwest has such delicacies. It's a pity. If the cattle and sheep from Tubo and Tuyuhun are brought to the Tang Dynasty, I will ensure that every family in my family has food.
How much grain will be produced by using cattle?"
"Don't you have any knowledge? Don't you have any experience?" No matter what the weather is over there, you can drive yaks here without dying of heat. However, cattle and sheep from western Sichuan and eastern Qinghai can still migrate here for breeding. I don't know whether they can farm fields. I guess not.
The Qinchuan cattle are good. "The lack of cattle for farming is due to the lack of care in the Tang Dynasty. If we really raise them well, beef is sold all over the streets. The taste of our Qinchuan cattle is no worse than that of yaks, and it is much better at plowing the fields."
"
Lan Ling's eyes lit up, he sat up and asked eagerly: "Really? Does Zihao have any good ideas? It would be a great merit if we could breed them in large numbers."
"There's no way, I don't understand." I shook my head. I could talk a lot, and it's true in the 21st century, but I didn't know anything about raising cattle and sheep, I just knew how to eat.
"That's a big lie!" Lan Ling smiled, kicked his feet, and lay down lazily, "It takes more than three years to raise a farm cow. When I was a child, my father brought us brothers and sisters to raise cows in the palace. Without you,
That’s easy to say.”
"It's not that exaggerated, right? It takes two years for a calf to mature. Here you just give birth, and there you just feed it. It's very fast." I was full of nonsense and said matter-of-factly: "We got hundreds of cows at one time, including a dozen males.
If you save seeds, other mothers will be able to give birth to them, but I still don’t believe it.”
"Seek death!" Lan Ling was so embarrassed by my vulgar words that he spat at me from a distance, "I don't know, don't talk nonsense and make others laugh."
"What's the joke?" This is the concept originally. It turns out that we have seen it a lot. Chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep all use this method. They cook hotpots all day long. I never heard anyone say that the cows are not enough to eat.
"Do you think you are a human being? You can raise her whenever you want?" Lan Ling was embarrassed by her own words. She covered her face and groaned for a long time, "When we talk about this, why is there still no movement from your wife?
?" He chuckled as he spoke, successfully inducing the embarrassment onto me.
I made myself look bad, and then turned around and abused others. I was like a bull, why did you pull me? "I'm working for the court, and I don't have time to take care of the children. Take care of it!" He walked over angrily and slapped Lan Ling, and the pot
Not mentioning the pot, "When it comes to animals, they can be ripped off people, but none of them are like you."
"Haha, don't be angry." Lan Ling saw that I was annoyed and smiled, "Zihao was used to growing up in a wealthy family. No matter how educated he was, he would not learn that. Of course, he didn't understand the reason. Me too.
I only learned this when I was with my father when I was a child. The calf is only fed until it grows quickly. On weekdays, when the old cow is working
Just let it watch on the side, with the old cow teaching and others giving guidance, and it will take more than three years to learn all the miscellaneous things before it can be useful. Besides, who raises bulls in any farmer? He has a strong temperament and cannot be taught at all.
, in the beginning of this spring, a cattle breeding official (the imperial court had a special breeding station in the Tang Dynasty) was gored to death."
"Then those who go to the fields are all cows?" I think it's amazing that Li Shimin actually taught this knowledge to his own children. I can still understand Zhu Yuanzhang, after all, he was born in a rough place, but Li Shimin was born into a noble family, so
There are conditions for learning this. I really underestimated the ancient emperors, "What to do with so many bulls?"
"You can use it once you have gelding," Lan Ling glanced at me with a blushing face and said maliciously, "It only takes two years for a cow to have a baby. Do you think it's a chicken or a duck?"
It turns out that no wonder ancient people valued farming cattle so much. I gained knowledge. Who could have imagined that Li Shimin’s daughter gave a biology class to college students in the 21st century, and that the royal family was so proficient in farming? Why is TV
The princesses here are all idiots. Could it be that this is the only one who is thoughtful and educated, and yet I have met him?
"Then raise chickens!" I have to save some face. It doesn't matter if the other party is a farmer uncle. Even if he is taught agricultural knowledge by a farmer sister, it will be okay. But being taught by a female feudal ruling class who is more pampered than me is not a problem for her.
After preaching in an unrelated field of knowledge, the face of a modern man is gone. "Raise more, put them in cages, at least a thousand per family! Just eat them, risk your life to lay eggs, and trade chickens and eggs for cattle."
The sheep are back and their hair has grown!"
"Hahaha..." Lan Ling laughed and swung his legs wildly, "Zihao, you are knowledgeable enough, you don't need to worry about these things anymore." Lan Ling seemed to see that I was competing, and finally stopped.
Laugh, take my hand
He pulled it over and put it on his face, "These things should be left to the farmers to worry about. You have to fight for victory in front of me. I am not as good as you in many places, and saints are not omnipotent. I heard this yesterday
News from the Ministry of Industry
"Hey, they used the gunpowder you prepared to mess up a few things, but they didn't control it well and blew up several rooms. This is what you're good at," Lan Ling said, pulling me to the edge of a soft chair and sitting on it.
He put it on me and said with a smile: "One
I haven't been able to see you for a long time, and I'm worried about you so much. As soon as we met, we started arguing like crazy. Fortunately, I even changed into new clothes and came over to see if they can pass me by." Lan Ling slowly stretched out his body.
His eyes gradually became hazy.
The weather was getting hot, and Lan Ling was wearing thin clothes. The slanted loops in front of the neck of his red coat had been opened at some point, revealing half of his greasy collar. His eyes were narrowed, and his chest was rising and falling slightly. The two of them were wearing thin clothes.
Where the body temperatures met, they all started to sweat a little.
