"Brother, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Before an hour had passed, the man who had gone out before ran back on a cow. Looking at the blood stains on the cow's back, Chen Xi understood that this was true and that group of
A rhythm that the thieves of the new era have done before.
"Have you already driven away?" Chen Xi asked curiously.
"Well, I killed one of them. There weren't many of them, they just came to rob, and their weapons were very ordinary. We chased them, caught them, and killed them. They were all solved." The man lifted the wine jar, bang bang bang.
He filled up the wine and said excitedly.
"It's okay, nothing happened to you." Chen Xi nodded, with a hint of curiosity.
"That's not true." The man finished the wine in a few gulps and began to take off his chain armor. "Those guys who don't even have iron pots use sheepskin. Their weapons can't even penetrate our armor, and we don't have the training."
There are not as many people as us, so if something happens, then don’t live.”
"That's good." Chen Xi was quite satisfied. From this, he understood Tian Yu's plan. It was obvious that he also wanted to let the people in the border county practice. After all, the young and strong among these people have been growing since the past two years.
, there is professional military service training every year.
"Let's go, let's take you to see my ranch." The man in charge looked very happy. After all, adult men inevitably have a desire for destruction in their hearts. And after just having a fight, and now there is business to do, of course he is in a good mood.
.
Chen Xi did not refuse and followed him to the pasture. This group of people are now half farmers and half pastoralists. They have pastures and farmland. There is no hope of living by water and grass anyway. Chen Xi does not allow this. The nomadic people have to settle down.
, can be quickly assimilated.
But having said that, there is no need to live in pursuit of water and grass anymore. Chen Xi has invested heavily in water conservancy networks and improved varieties every year. Now it is basically a village with a fairly reliable water network nearby. If you don’t mess around, upstream
As long as the villages have constant water supply, they can all live well.
"I'm afraid there are two hundred cows." Chen Xi looked at the cattle pen that was several acres in size, as well as the surrounding pastures filled with grass and haystacks. He took a casual inventory and asked curiously, "What kind of cattle pen is there?"
It’s very good.”
"My skills in animal husbandry are very reliable." The man said proudly, then sighed, and then said with great admiration, "Actually, it's not my skills that are good. We all know how to raise cattle, and we used to do it on the grassland.
, but forage often limits the scale. These grasses are actually grown by us and are improved grasses from Canghou."
"Oh." Chen Xi nodded. He has grown everything from cookies to almost an old man now. Fortunately, he does produce some strange things every year. This kind of grass should be a product from two or three years ago.
Yes, it seems that there are better and better products this year.
"We couldn't raise so many cattle before, but then someone came down to teach us how to do this, and organized everyone to teach. In fact, that person was not good at raising cattle, so he said he was here to teach us how to farm." The man thought.
I looked up and admired the person who was said to be Cookie's apprentice.
Represented by the Wuhuan people, Xianbei people, and Xiongnu people, these people did not grow grass in the past, and only herded cattle and sheep to graze, so they lived after water and grass. However, there is a considerable gap between the grass that grows on the grassland and the grass that is planted.
, the latter is more suitable for cattle and sheep, and the latter is large enough and dense enough.
The Hu people who moved in the north did not accept this method at first, but when the grass grew, the Hu people were also human beings, and they were not really mentally retarded. They found that planting grass was much better than running around randomly, and it was also easier to let people grow.
The cattle and sheep were getting fat, so they decided to plant grass instead.
Raising cattle and sheep is for living, not for running around. If you can stay where you are, you can live well, so why run around? I really think it is a good thing to live by water and grass.
"It's okay. I remember that in the past two years, the government sent people down to teach people how to farm. In the past two days, there have been some achievements in grain improvement. I guess a new batch of officials are coming." Chen Xiwen
Yan thought about what Cookies had been doing in the past two years, and saw if he could get it together, and if it worked, he would spread a batch.
"Okay, we actually couldn't trust that big brother at first. He only planted grass because he had big fists. Now everyone doesn't want to run around. Planting grass is much easier than running around. We offended that big brother back then.
." The man stepped on the fence with one foot, slapped his thigh and said loudly, "If he comes back this time, we will definitely give him food and accommodation."
Chen Xi silently wiped a cold sweat. He could think of how the students who came to teach these people how to grow grass were treated last time. But now that everyone here is growing grass and raising cattle, it is estimated that those people will come again.
That's really like being treated like a family member.
"Hmm, I'll go back and ask about the situation and see when someone will come down to promote it, but there should be new grass seeds." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, he remembered that Cookie complained to him last year that he was in the south.
When he was farming, the children of the Ji family collected a lot of random seeds for him. It turned out that some of the seeds were grass seeds, which caused harm to his family's field.
"How much grass can be grown in one acre of this pasture now?" Chen Xi asked curiously.
"I didn't count the work, just cut it. I weighed it once. I cut it several times a year and it weighs almost 5,000 kilograms." The man said with great satisfaction. If the grass on the grassland could grow so vigorously,
, who needs to run around, but the grass on the grassland cannot rise so much.
"This is too perverted." Chen Xi said with twitching eyes. The grass was growing so aggressively. "Is it fallow?"
"I remember he said that it needs to be left fallow. It needs to be cultivated every two years. In the second year, the grass should be chopped up and used as fertilizer. Otherwise, I can raise more cattle." The man said with some pity. Chen Xi nodded after hearing this.
Even if growing grass consumes much less soil fertility, it is still too harsh.
"Probably new grass seeds will be planted next year." Chen Xi nodded. Fertilizer cultivation can only be done in this local way. Chemical fertilizers may seem simple, but in fact they are very troublesome.
"How much can the new grass species produce?" The man said very curiously, "Actually, someone came here at the beginning of the year and said that if we plant grass here, we only need to take a break every five years. The land fertility is actually enough.
Although I didn’t understand what he was talking about, I remember that he said that everything that grows in the soil consumes the fertility of the soil.”
"This is true." Chen Xi nodded, feeling quite satisfied. Everyone worked hard and did their own thing. It was great that those who farmed taught others how to farm, and those who studied specialized research. But having said that, the Wang family in Kuaiji was the one who led the way.
This method is the most advanced method of producing nitrogen fertilizer.
"It can probably be improved by one section. Well, I want all these cattle and sheep." Chen Xi said with a smile. He felt that it was necessary to visit the Wang family in Kuaiji.
The man was even more happy when he heard this. He took Chen Xi to count the cattle and sheep. The two parties agreed on the money and goods on the spot, and then asked Chen Xi to stay and eat roast mutton. From this aspect, human beings are still full of commonalities.
They all have corresponding pursuits for a better life.
He continued northward with the cattle and sheep. For this purpose, Chen Xi hired two shepherds and sent them all the way to the large pasture in the north. They threw them all in. After that, Chen Xi went straight to the gathering point of the aristocratic families. Chen Xi was very interested in the research of the Wang family in Kuaiji.
, especially after thinking of something.
There is indeed no chemical fertilizer now, but there are still many thunder and lightning Han Dynasties. It is no joke that thunder and lightning produce nitrogen fertilizer. Every year, there are hundreds of millions of tons of nitrogen fertilizer produced by lightning around the world. It may be even more exaggerated than what human fertilizer factories produce.
.
A large bolt of lightning fell from the sky, producing several tons of nitrogen fertilizer. It is true that the civil servants of the Han Dynasty were unable to create thunder and lightning, but because they were easily affected by thunder and lightning, they could drag the spirit of wind and rain. However, the civil servants of the Han Dynasty could drag the wind and rain.
There are prerequisites for creating thunder and lightning.
Doesn't this happen to be an excellent family that studies thunder and lightning? Compared with the normal way of researching chemical fertilizers, this fantasy method is more reliable. After all, Chen Xi can now almost interfere with the celestial phenomena of most of Eurasia. Thunderstorms
The required prerequisites have been met, and all that's left is for the Lao Wang family to step forward and cause trouble.
This is also a very excellent way to produce nitrogen fertilizer. After the lightning strike, a heavy rain will directly put all the water and fertilizer in place, and even fertilization can be given up, laugh.
"Hey, where is the Wang family in Kuaiji?" Chen Xi looked around curiously. This is where the major families lived after they migrated. Compared with the scale of ordinary villages merged together, there is a real city here.
That kind of.
But this time when Chen Xi came to see it, he clearly felt that it was a lot more desolate. They were all women, children, old and weak. Young people were rarely seen, and there were even fewer middle-aged people. The temptation of Jianguo basically made these families run away.
, the rest are seeds.
"Hey, it would be great if other places in the Central Plains could have the sound of reading as loud as here." Chen Xi couldn't help but sigh as he listened to the sound of reading in a private school not far away. The existence of aristocratic families is indeed
It takes up too many resources.
"Master, is that Mr. Shui Jing?" Chen Yun pointed at the little old man holding a book in front of him and said curiously as he hurried past.
"Hey, it's true." Chen Xi took a look and determined that he had absorbed a lot of evil ideas from Ji Xiang back then, and then found out that he was likely to be sanctioned by the official. Before being sanctioned, he ran away to teach in the north, which resulted in
Sima Hui left the matter unsolved.
"Mr. Shui Jing, why are you in such a hurry?" Chen Xi doesn't mind scaring Sima Hui. This guy is also a smart man with spiritual talent, but he doesn't like government affairs and is a hermit. But he knew from the last time he ran away that this guy
In fact, he belongs to Jia Xu, who is first-class in self-preservation.
Sima Hui was stunned, turned his head and saw that it was Chen Xi. He stopped for a moment, then stepped back, shook his green shirt, and walked towards Chen Xi.
