Of course, I knew that I was going to enter the Gaoshan Guard. Among them, Qi Zhenzong was most excited. After all, these confidant generals under Yang Shanlu already knew what was going on. A year later, the Tartarus was about to offend me Heshan! Then of course we must train more soldiers and horses to teach them severely!
Therefore, Qi Zhenzong, a troop-training madman, has long been looking forward to marching into Gaoshan Guard... After all, only by taking down the entire Donglu Sanwei, will there be more troops for training a new army!
Even he took the initiative to ask: "My lord, why use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken? Gao Shanwei can let me go." Qi Zhenzong said this because he is now the commander of the guard, and then brought Yang. Shanlu's command feels competent.
However, Yang Shanlu rejected his suggestion. Qi Zhenzong is an out-and-out military master, but he is not necessarily good at managing internal affairs, so let him, a guerrilla general, take the initiative in person.
However, when everyone was discussing and preparing to set off, when the discussion hall was enthusiastic, Liu Dabangmai suddenly came in to report: "Brother Yang, a group of people you sent before has returned, and there are important things to report!"
"Really—" Yang Shanlu was very pleasantly surprised when he heard it... You know that the manpower he dispatched was to perform an important task, that is, to find sweet potatoes, potatoes, but now, has it been found
So Yang Shanlu was summoned immediately, and after a while, a ragged Xuanjia army came in. This person's face was already blackened and his dirty hair was knotted. It looked like a few. The month is like a meal and sleeping on the street.
But when he saw Yang Shanlu, he knelt down in joy and said, "My lord, I'm back! Fortunately, I found what I needed!"
"Really?" Yang Shanlu was overjoyed. He couldn't close his happy mouth, and quickly said, "Hurry up and show me!"
This person used to be a small banner of the Xuanjia Army, but after spending more than half a year of sleeping and eating, he can no longer see the costume of the Xuanjia Army, but the capable temperament is still there, he just quickly removed it from his body. After leaving a wrap, he carefully took out a few fruits from the inside and handed them to Yang Shanlu.
There are a total of eight fruits here. The head is slightly larger than the fist, and the skin color is dark red. Yang Shanlu waited to take it and took a closer look. He even put it on his nose and smelled the smell. His face was already covered. The color of joy, even if the generals were not there, he couldn't help but laugh out loud... He was searched for thousands of times in the crowd, and he finally found it today!
That's right, because this sweet potato is so important! Even with it, Yang Shanlu has the confidence to lead the people in the world to overcome the disaster year!
Let's take a look at the specific data of sweet potatoes. Simply put, the yield is high! One mu can harvest two to three thousand catties, which is twenty times better than rice! Yang Shanlu clearly remembered what his grandmother told him when he was a child, it is called sweet potato sweet potato half-year food, including three years of natural disasters, it was relying on sweet potatoes to survive those three years!
In addition, sweet potatoes are widely planted and are resistant to barrenness. All kinds of horns, riversides and beaches can be planted, and it is possible to achieve double and triple cropping on a piece of land without taking up the agricultural work of rice production. Even its vines can be used as feed for pigs and sheep, so it is really a treasure!
Including the prosperous period of Qianlong, which was boasted by some survivors in later generations, it was actually the so-called Qianlong prosperous period that was created by the large-scale planting of sweet potatoes.
And his generals, seeing that Yang Shanlu pays so much attention to this humble thing, they were puzzled: "My lord, what is this? Is it delicious?"
And Yang Shanlu laughed when he heard it: "Tell you, this is not a mountain delicacy, but it is more useful than a delicacy... With it, you can save thousands of lives!"
Then Yang Shanlu introduced its function to the generals, and after the generals listened, their surprised eyes became round. Such a humble thing is so magical? But since Yang Shanlu said this, they are convinced... It seems that the General has found the baby...
And next, Yang Shanlu first rewarded the Xuanjia army heavily, and he did a very good job. You must know that his group is composed of 4 people, but now he is only one back, and he travels in this era. The mortality rate is very high, not to mention spanning several provinces, and the journey is 2,000 miles long...
Therefore, it is a very important thing for the ancients to travel far away. The journey is long and the time is long. There are too many unknown factors. Diseases, disasters, bandits, and entanglement are exhausted. It is very common for people to die thousands of miles away. I have said that I have met my old friend from another country, but now, I finally completed the task successfully...
Although this Xuan Jia army also said guiltily that it was late to come back, but Yang Shanlu was already very satisfied, and on the spot he was named a deputy hundred households, and he was promoted to two levels in a row!
In fact, Yang Shanlu knew that this award was a bit high. Generally speaking, it would be almost the same if it was sealed to the general banner, but he was very clear about the value of it, and even in the sense of sweet potato, it would be nothing to exaggerate. what! Of course, this way, the Xuan Jia army is happy... After a hard year, two consecutive upgrades, the value of this hardship.
Insert a sentence, really good, it is worth installing, after all, there are many books, complete books, and fast updates!
Next, Yang Shanlu was to inform the agricultural expert Han Lin to come, and he, like a child who got a toy, kept looking at the whole eight sweet potatoes over and over again, and he was still excitedly facing each other. The generals said: "Hehe, the matter of going to Gaoshanwei, postpone for 3 days! In these 3 days, I will get the sweet potato matter first!"
"Ah, is there such a hurry?" Qi Zhenzong and the others were dumbfounded. Although they already knew that this sweet potato was very important, they were so anxious to this extent
The reason for this is known only by Yang Shanlu, and only by a person who is proficient in history, that is, although sweet potato is good, it has just been introduced from Western countries and even introduced to Shanghai by the scientist Xu Guangqi. It has not adapted to the climate and geographical conditions of the Central Plains, which means that it needs to be optimized for breeding.
Even Yang Shanlu knew that just like in the following years, Hong Chengchou, Zhang Yixian and others did not know this truth. In order to achieve success when governing Shaanxi, they forcibly promoted planting in Shaanxi and other places. As a result, the yield per mu was lower than that of rice. All have aroused popular changes, so what he has to do now is to optimize breeding and improve the characteristics of sweet potatoes.
Of course, it would take at least 20 years to optimize the breeding to adapt them to the geographical situation of Ming Dynasty. But now, Yang Shanlu has its own magic method.
At this time, agricultural expert Han Lin also rushed to hear the news. As an agricultural expert, of course he knew more about the meaning of sweet potatoes. He looked and read over and over again. Then, Yang Shanlu was about to start his exclusive secrets. —Building a greenhouse of the Ming Dynasty.
Because of the greenhouse, sweet potatoes can be cultivated 3 to 4 times a year, greatly speeding up the breeding process, and as long as the sweet potatoes suitable for planting in the north of Ming Dynasty are cultivated, at that time...
Of course, in this era, building a greenhouse is not so simple. There is no nylon membrane or steel frame, but Yangshanlu has a way to build it.
So in the next three days, Yang Shanlu was very busy. He turned into an agricultural expert and successfully built a greenhouse.
Two-thirds are underground, and one-third is on the ground. To enter the greenhouse, you have to walk up to more than 20 steps, and the top is covered with crop poles. In addition, there are special ventilation holes and six skylights on the top. , After the light is introduced, ten huge bronze mirrors refract inside, reflecting the light in the greenhouse as bright as day.
And the area of this greenhouse is not small, a full 70 square meters, which is more than a cent of land, enough to carry out the breeding of sweet potatoes.
Even Yangshan Lu still has an advantageous condition, that is, after the first breeding, after the population grows, part of the sweet potato can be used for breeding on Qiongzhou Island.
You must know that Qiongzhou Island is a natural breeding base. The later great druid Yuan Long/Ping used Qiongzhou Island as the first choice for breeding, so now we will bring sweet potato seedlings there to breed, and the progress of cultivation The same can be greatly accelerated, and the two places can be carried out at the same time, which adds to the confidence of success.
After the earthen greenhouse was completed, his generals, Qi Zhenzong, Han Wu and others were all enthusiastically visiting the interior. This was a unique new thing in the Ming Dynasty... At this time, the outside world is already late autumn, and the temperature is only Twelve to three degrees, but in this large greenhouse, it is more than twenty degrees, as warm as summer.
Then they inquired in detail about the role of this greenhouse, and they were shocked when they learned that solar terms could be'reversed' and the climate changed. Of course, the money basket, which is most concerned with logistics, was thinking of other aspects. He had already thought about it. : "My lord, you are really omnipotent! It's just that since the soil greenhouse you mentioned is so powerful, can you grow other things? For example, vegetables?"
"Uh..." Yang Shanlu nodded when he heard it. This is a suggestion for food, but it is also feasible. (Since the royal chef came to Zhenluwei, these guys have higher requirements for food and drink)
Moreover, although it is expensive to build a greenhouse, it is not a big deal to Yang Shanlu, a local rich man, but the future harvest will be very good.
Come to think about it, there are fewer vegetables in the north, but even less in winter, that is, the poor ones, such as Chinese cabbage, sauerkraut, tofu, etc., but with the greenhouse, all this is not a problem... Imagine the cold winter In the twelfth lunar month, there is heavy snow outside, but you can still eat emerald green vegetables, crisp cucumbers, even if you want to eat a big watermelon, it’s okay. This kind of enjoyment...
"My lord, can you do it?" When looking at the other people, including Qi Zhenzong, all seemingly nonchalant, but in fact implicitly expecting, Yang Shanlu just smiled: "It's time!"
Although it will take some effort, but who told these brothers to follow the right people
So Yang Shanlu swiped his pen, and again copied three such earthen greenhouses (all of them need to be played in person, others can’t get them). In addition, he also designated this area as a forbidden zone to prevent others from being caught. Steal the technology, and in this way, it is estimated that at least four hundred catties of fresh vegetables can be produced every month in the future!
Although this amount is not too high, it is definitely not too small. This not only guarantees that the brothers, but also can taste fresh vegetables every week, even the brothers of the Xuanjia Army, occasionally eat every day. At that time, there were a few green chicken feathers floating in the bowl, this kind of surprise...
So just like that, after the sweet potato seedlings, including the seeds of some other vegetables, were settled in the greenhouse, a major event was settled, and Yang Shanlu was relieved to take the men and horses and began to go to Gaoshanwei... Tianchengwei It's done, what about the remaining Gaoshan Guards
