Chapter 338 I now know that farming is not easy
After receiving a letter from Boss Kong, Yaoyao naturally considered what to plant in such a field.
If it is a cash crop, it must be a type that can be processed into products and stored.
For example, lettuce is not very good at planting due to traffic restrictions.
Then let’s take a chili, and the peppers are not time to grow. After thinking about it, Yaoyao can only focus on the wheat.
After all, it’s October now, and it’s not easy to plant anything else, but winter wheat is just the right time.
In fact, hundreds of years ago, most people still ate chestnut rice, and even ate less wheat. In Guanzhong, no one was willing to grow wheat.
However, with the development of grinding technology and farming technology, winter wheat cultivation has been widely promoted in the middle and lower reaches of Dahe River in Guanzhong.
Only in Guanzhong area, wheat is not grown. Why? Because chestnut rice is more drought-resistant and is more suitable for planting in Guanzhong.
Moreover, the reason why people plant winter wheat in the middle and lower reaches of the family is to avoid various disasters, but Guanzhong does not have such disasters.
This also leads to the fact that in Guanzhong, there is no concern about planting winter wheat.
The piece of land that Kong Qi found for Yaoyao should be considered a midstream player.
It is exactly the place suitable for growing winter wheat.
"But what kind of varieties should be used?"
Yaoyao didn’t know how much wheat could produce per acre of this era, but no matter what, she could not be lower than this era.
Otherwise, what else can you do if you are doing farming?
Soon, Yaoyao wrote a letter to Li Chengqian, because at this time, Li Chengqian didn't seem to be far from the place.
at the same time……
The letter also came with her wheat seeds.
In the letter, Yaoyao mainly said three points:
First, she would tell her father that these pieces of land were taken for the "Women's Thirty-Two Music Floors" and would be used as the development of the "Women's Thirty-Two Music Floors".
Second, if you have nothing to do, your prince, then take the minister to farm.
Third, the bag is wheat seeds, which is enough for five acres.
The word "five" was changed to "one" by Yaoyao as if she had written a typo and was changed to "one".
Why did it change to "Yi" later? What if Li Chengqian gets tanned outside?
It's better to be a little white man.
Li Chengqian thought Yaoyao had just written it wrong, and he didn't understand Yaoyao's good intentions at all.
Not long after, Li Chengqian received Yaoyao's stuff.
The ministers below, including the East Palace Liusu, were stunned for a moment when they heard His Royal Highness the Crown Prince telling them that they were going to farm.
The left chaotic son Zhang Xuanqing stood up and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, are you not wrong?"
Li Chengqian said, "You all heard it wrong. What? Is there anything wrong with this prince going to farm? But is there any ritual inappropriateness?"
The following sentence is absurd and it really looks like when he first met Yaoyao.
The Zuo Shuzi Yu Zhining came to his senses at this time and stood below and said, "It's not wrong, but... Prince, why did you suddenly think of going to farm?"
Below, more than ten people also looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Li Chengqian said: "Now this is the time to sow seeds in the wheat. Since they don't come out, they will plant them for a season. Besides, during his lifetime, the teacher often told me how the people of the people suffer. This is the time when I should experience it."
Yu Zhining: "You don't need your highness to do it yourself."
Li Chengqian also said: "If I don't do it myself, how can I know how hard the people of the people are in the busy farming season? What do you think, Zhang Zuo Shuzi?"
Zhang Xuanqing could not find a reason to object, so he bowed and said, "I think this is indeed a good way to experience the sufferings of the people. It is really a blessing for the people to think like this."
Li Chengqian: "That's it! Everyone prepares all the troops and brings farm tools."
Yu Zhining: "I just don't know where Your Highness is going to farm?"
Li Chengqian said: "Shanzhou."
Everyone almost fell.
Yu Zhining: "Shanzhou, isn't it two hundred miles away from here?"
This is one-third of the journey back to Chendu.
Li Chengqian turned around and looked at him, and replied: "That's right!"
Yu Zhining: "Why do you have to go so far?"
Before he could finish his words, Li Chengqian had already come outside.
Yu Zhining could only follow him quickly.
And the other foreign ministers have followed a long time ago.
After preparing the horse, Li Chengqian sat on the horse and said to the old ministers in his fifties: "If the two left slanders are inconvenient, there is no need to follow him."
Zhang Xuanqing: "Well... what is the Crown Prince saying? But why does the Crown Prince want to go to Shaanxi?"
While talking, Zhang Xuanqing also got on the horse with the support of one person.
Li Chengqian said, "Maybe it's because there is a vast land there, it's sparsely populated."
This time, Li Chengqian came out, except for the foreign ministers, only brought Liusu of the East Palace, and there was no other woman.
So you have to adapt to all aspects.
Fortunately, he is not the kind of person who needs to be taken care of by a woman.
In addition to more than a dozen foreign ministers, he brought dozens of cavalry next.
However, before setting off, he looked at the dozens of people behind him, and it seemed that there were still a few more people.
Why did Yaoyao only give him one acre of seeds? When the time comes, should he ask these people to help him? If they want to help, one acre of land does not seem to be enough.
Thinking of the end, Li Chengqian simply gave up.
Because... if there are fewer people, the ministers will definitely worry about his safety. If there are many, they will not go to war now.
The light car was simple, one man and one horse, and it took two hours to reach the destination, and after arriving, it was already afternoon.
But after we arrived, there were no tools.
I can only see who is not using it today from the hands of the local people.
As for the sudden killing of such a group of people in their family, the mistress of the farmer's house also looked at them in panic.
Who doesn’t panic?
At first, I even thought that some young master came out to play and asked the women of Huo Huoliang's family to borrow farm tools.
After waived the power of the ox and tigers, he only collected two or three hoes because they also wanted to use it.
Looking at the simple farm tools in his hand, and looking at the other person holding a cow and a cart behind him, Li Chengqian couldn't help but feel a little moved.
It's really a pissing comparison between people.
In fact... in this era, having a cow is equivalent to having a tractor, which is considered a big deal.
After looking at it, Li Chengqian couldn't help but sigh: "I now know that farming is not easy."
After working hard for most of the day, my sweat was already soaked in my clothes.
And the people passing by with the cow also looked at these luxuriously dressed people.
