"Call Liao Hua," said Lu Bu.

"yes."

Tong Lu went to call someone, but Liao Hua came soon.

"Master."

"Yuan Jian, I have to work hard to send another trip to Guangling, five thousand wooden ox carts, pulled by a rack cart, one thousand can hold it. There are also more than 10,000 kilograms of vegetable seeds and thousands of sets of farm tools, and some for Liu Junjun and Zhang Liao. I think Zhang Liao should have reclaimed the vegetable field."

Liao Hua said: "Good lord, no problem, I will set out tomorrow. General Zhang Liao wiped out the thieves in Guangling, shocked the local tyrants, and guarded Guangling in a very peaceful manner. It can be said that the doors are not closed at night and the road is not picked up."

"Wen Yuan did a good job and was a talented general."

When Liao Hua came to Guangling again to deliver goods, Liu Junzheng began to work hard on water conservancy.

Digging a canal from Sheyang Lake for dozens of miles and irrigating rice fields can water hundreds of thousands of acres of land at once.

This project has received support from local gentry and the people. You should know that the most profitable ones are the big ones, but it is impossible for large households to use up all the water. Ordinary people can also use this water. Rice fields irrigated with water have good yields and very good yield increases.

In order to calm the hearts of the people, Liu Junjun erected dozens of monuments along the canal. Any village who participates in the construction of the canal has the right to use water forever for free. No major household or ethnic group is allowed to monopolize the water source.

The people were deeply moved, and it was rare to have a good official who was dedicated to serving the people.

Everyone's hand skin was worn out, and they drove the canal with their shoulders on their shoulders. Fortunately, there were plains around Sheyang Lake, which was relatively difficult and the progress was relatively fast. Thirty thousand people dug dozens of miles in a month. When the lake water came in, the people along the canal benefited a lot. There was enough water to irrigate the rice, and they no longer had to fight for the water source to make their heads bleed.

Liao Hua brought people to the west of Guangling City.

"General Wenyuan, I am here by the lord general to transport the baggage."

Zhang Liao was very happy: "Brother Yuan Jian has worked hard all the way, please join the camp quickly."

Zhang Liao arranged for the army's chief to sign for supplies, but in fact most of them were for Guangling County. Since Liu County governor led people to dig canals, they were placed in the military camp first.

When Zhang Liao saw that he mainly sent some agricultural tools and vegetable seeds.

"My lord is asking me to arrange to reclaim the vegetable field and have a variety of vegetables."

"That's what the lord should mean. The date of the defense change may change, so General Wenyuan still has a variety of vegetables, and the vegetables from Xuzhou will not be shipped."

Zhang Liao was busy suppressing bandits during this period, but the matter of the vegetable field was not over. He first reclaimed 300 acres of vegetable field, including radishes, cabbage, coriander, spinach, cabbage, vegetable lumps, etc.

Xuzhou army is all one family, and no matter when the vegetable field is changed, it can be left to later generations.

During the training, Zhang Liao carefully arranged the land with horses in the army and planted hundreds of acres of lump vegetables, cabbage, and carrots.

Liao Hua led his troops here for three days to rest, because these years all depended on walking, and soldiers were still easily tired after walking for hundreds of miles.

I have eaten fish in Guangling these days, and I eat fish every day.

From wheat ears to white strips, to carp, grass carp, and green carp. Because the land is vast and sparsely populated, there are many fish in the lake, the price of fish is very low. So many fish are mainly salvaged from Sheyang Lake.

Liao Hua said goodbye: "General Wenyuan, it's time for us to say goodbye. If we don't go back, we won't get used to eating pickles when we go back."

Zhang Liao smiled and said, "There are also mainly pickled vegetables here. During this period, the water bandits have been cleared out. Hundreds of people are training by the lake. There are many fish salvaged every day. After the water bandits have been cleared out, they will not go fishing. Yuan Jian went back and gave his lord a little bigger fish. The fish here are better than the fish in Xuzhou."

Zhang Liao was still very considerate and prepared fifty large wooden barrels and put them on a cart, and prepared five or six hundred large grass carp for Lu Bu.

Liao Hua's baggage army also ate fish along the way. Because there was no equipment for oxygen consumption in the past and months, they could only add water occasionally and eat more when they caught dead fish.

By the time they were transported to Xuzhou, there were 300 fish left.

Lu Bu was very happy and planned to ask Wang Heng to let someone divide the fish.

Wang Heng came over and said, "How to divide such a small amount of fish? Or the lord's camp will eat it secretly."

"How can this be true? Other soldiers will have opinions if they know it."

"Then don't eat anyone. I see that these big grass carp are not small in size, with a newly dug 300-acre fish pond. It has just been flooded, so maybe these big fish will lay eggs," said Wang Heng.

"Okay, then let's go to the fish pond and eat it next year. Didn't it mean that grass carp doesn't like laying eggs in fish ponds?"

"There is such a saying, but it doesn't matter. Just find nearby fishermen to buy some grass carp and let them go. Grass carp is easy to feed. Grass carp is the favorite of grass carp. Raising more grass carp can provide some fish fresh for soldiers." Wang Heng said.

Lu Bu rode a horse to the fish pond by the river. It was originally a brick and tile factory. It was dug low-lying and the farming was prone to water accumulation. So he drew water from the river and made a fish pond. The area was quite large, with more than 300 acres. Four fishermen were in charge of catching silver carp, carp, crucian carp, and grass carp from the river. When the nearby garrison weeds, they would throw various grass into the fish pond, and the grass carp would obtain a large amount of forage.

Lu Bu asked the fishermen who managed the fish pond: "How deep is the fish pond?"

"It's quite appropriate to grow fish with less than one meter. Most of the grass carp are, followed by crucian carp."

The quality of the water is still very good, and you can clearly see the fish swimming around in the water.

But this fish seems to be a little thin, especially those crucian carp, which are thin in size.

"These fish are not very fat, especially crucian carp, who are thin."

When the fisherman heard Lu Bu say this, he hurried over and explained: "Crucian carp is different from grass carp. The grassland eats grass, but the crucian carp does not eat grass, and only relies on the waterworms in the pond to live in, so it becomes thinner. If you want crucian carp to be fat, you can feed some wheat bran and other things, and you will become fat."

"So that's it. I'll arrange a small amount of feed to transfer to the fish tomorrow to make the fish fatter."

Because some time ago, the system activated the exchange of bran under the grain. It was only 35 cents per bag of 50 kilograms, totaling 0.7 cents per kilogram.

"Is it enough to allocate 1,000 kilograms of wheat bran to the fish pond a day?"

"Enough, enough. Although the fish pond is large, it has not been long since the beginning. There are too few fish stocked. I have cleaned up the small fish these days, mainly raising grass carp, carp, crucian carp, and silver carp. If one thousand kilograms of bran a day, a large amount of fish will be harvested next autumn." The fisherman said.

Aquaculture was still very rare in the late Han Dynasty. Because the land was vast and sparsely populated, there were endless fish in rivers, lakes and seas, so fish farming was generally not available. However, freshwater aquaculture is also an important science and must be developed.
