Chapter 57 Qu Yuanli
This week is coming to an end again, and the results of this book really leave Wen Wenwen speechless. However, Wen Wenwen will work hard to write it down. I hope everyone can give it more support, collect it, recommend it, click it, reward it, and evaluate it. No one should be missing!

After beating up the servants inside the village, Li Anran did not make many changes in specific matters. The most important thing was to ask Zhao Er to pick up his mother-in-law from the county town and be responsible for his own diet.
, and by the way, I also picked up Goudan, who was living in the Zhao family, so that the family of three could be separated from each other and worry about it day and night.
In addition, the sanitation in the village, the work requirements and responsibilities of each "functional department" were clarified, and the rules of rewards and punishments were set. The rules are very simple but also very strict. If you do well, you will be rewarded.
It's a lot, but if you don't do it well, you'll be punished severely.
Li Anran's idea is very simple. He has the ability to travel back and forth between two time and space, and money is not a problem at all. But just having a reward will encourage greed and dissatisfaction with desire, and just having a "big stick"
Otherwise, it will damage the foundation, so the method of holding a "carrot" in one hand and a "stick" in the other is most suitable.
After taking care of the people in the yard, Li Anran was not idle. He sat directly in the front hall and asked Butler Wang, who had just successfully transferred to another job, to call the bankers who already belonged to him in batches according to their age and personal reputation.
, or chatting about household matters, or asking about needs and thoughts. Unfortunately, ancient people attached great importance to status, and almost no one dared to say anything. They just asked questions and answered questions.
I picked it up.
Li Anran was not surprised by this situation. Anyway, the current batch of bookmakers are only the first batch of people to start their own plan. There will not be much specific things to do, let alone any core content.
It's a good thing that everyone is so honest, as long as you
All he needs is obedient subordinates. Bankers who are too assertive are not a good thing.
After communicating with these bankers, and on the advice of the Wang Guan family, Li Anran selected ten more satisfactory bankers and distributed the seeds he brought.
Although this batch of seeds does not contain sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, which are the three big killers that can make the agriculture of the Tang Dynasty develop by leaps and bounds, there are many vegetables with good yields. For example, they were initially misunderstood as poisonous.
The wolf peach is a brightly colored, sweet and sour tomato, as well as cucumber, eggplant, pumpkin and other varieties.
The reason why I did this was, firstly, out of selfishness. I wanted to solve the problem of lack of food varieties in ancient times, so as to satisfy my own appetite. Secondly, I also wanted to try whether these seeds that had traveled through time and space could be used.
The seeds are alive, and at the same time, I want to see if these seeds will change like myself and the properly raised chicken after traveling through time and space.
Apart from these two main reasons, the last thing I wanted to do was to use these vegetables that had not yet appeared in China during the Tang Dynasty and the subsequent greenhouse technology to create "auspiciousness" that would make His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty happy. Even if it is based on
The various mysterious actions Li Anran has performed now have attracted enough attention, otherwise many things would not go so smoothly, but this kind of "auspiciousness" that benefits the country and the people will never be too little.
Li Anran also knew very well that the vegetable varieties he brought had either not appeared in the Tang Dynasty or were new varieties improved by later generations. People of this era are not clear about the planting methods of these varieties, so they still
I deliberately wrote down the planting methods and precautions I had searched for in advance. However, after writing several planting instructions, I regretted not bringing the printer.
Thinking of printers, Li Anran also thought of his Four Treasures Shop in Lantian County. Although it has not reopened yet, it will definitely reopen after the staff is available. By then, he can also order some pens, inks, paper and inkstones from Modern Time and Space.
and related books and merchandise for sale.
After writing the planting methods and precautions, considering that the literacy rate among ancient people was really low, Li Anran asked Butler Wang to bind what he had written into a book, and then invited the two literate accountants in the village courtyard.
According to the previous plan for each household to be responsible for planting one variety, it was taught to the selected farmers one by one.
What made Li Anran a little surprised was that when he met with these villagers respectively, he did not know who had spread the news about his previous feat of killing tigers. As a result, not only the villagers whose families were affected by tigers were grateful, but also those who
The villagers who were not harmed by tigers were also extremely grateful. Although this sentiment was not enough to unite the entire villa, it at least made the first step of taking over the villa a very solid one, and at the same time it gave them a certain degree of prestige and fame.
As the saying goes, the emperor has no shortage of hungry soldiers.
For the ten selected farmers, Li Anran also gave a certain amount of compensation while assigning planting tasks. Each laborer will receive a salary every day, which is already a very good salary compared to this year and month. In addition,
For things like working, it usually means that you are busy and tired at the beginning, waiting for something.
After they grow out, there are only some things left to take care of and maintain. Even if the mother-in-law, the elderly and the little ones at home can't help, they can still take over the care of their own fields. Moreover, it is summer again, and farming work
I'm not very busy at all, and no one would be stupid enough to disagree with the extra income.
After finalizing the vegetable planting, Li Anran asked Butler Wang to find several farmers in the villa who knew carpentry. Because the fields in the villa are basically in use, even if some are not used
, are also in a state of fallow. In ancient times, there were no chemical fertilizers of later generations, and even the use of natural fertilizers was limited. In order to maintain the fertility of the land, it was usually cultivated for one year and then left fallow for one year. I want to use these vegetables brought
If you plant them, you will naturally have to find another place.
Fortunately, this Zhuangzi, which has been renamed Xiaoyao Villa, actually includes a lot of wasteland and forests in addition to 6,000 acres of fields. But it was not easy for farmers in the Tang Dynasty to reclaim wasteland.
Things. Therefore, in order to complete this work more smoothly and quickly, and at the same time to further enhance his importance, Li Anran took out a big killer weapon in the ancient agricultural field, the Quyuan plow.
Compared with the plows before ancient times, the curved shaft plow has several major improvements. The first is to change the straight shaft and long shaft into curved shaft and short shaft, and install a freely rotating plow disc on the shaft head. This not only makes the plow
The frame has become smaller and lighter, and it is easy to turn around and turn, with flexible operation, saving manpower and animal power. This thing first appeared in the Dongjiang area in the late Tang Dynasty. It can be said that the emergence of this kind of plow is a milestone in the maturity of our country's farming tools.
In fact, with the technology of modern time and space, the bend plow has long been eliminated. If he really wants to speed up the agricultural development in the villa, Li Anran can definitely bring some light agricultural machinery from modern time and space. Anyway, most of these agricultural machinery are powered by diesel.
For power, you don’t have to worry about power generation, transformation, storage, and maintenance like household appliances. However, these agricultural machinery are fine for self-use, but it is obviously not suitable to promote them.
Not to mention the value of the material "steel" for these agricultural machinery in the eyes of the ancients. Once popularized, even if it can make a lot of money in diesel, such a large-scale development will inevitably touch some sensitivities.
problems, and at the same time, it will also be quite troublesome in terms of maintenance. The most important thing is that it is of no benefit to you at all.
The structure of the Quyuan plow is not complicated. Before this time of traveling, Li Anran made sufficient preparations and bought some tape measures as a tool to unify weights and measures. In this way, the Quyuan plow can naturally reach
The size is uniform, and once some parts are damaged, they can also be of great use in replacement and repair.
After teaching these dealers who knew carpentry how to use a tape measure and explaining the structure of the curved shaft plow in detail, Li Anran did not forget to urge these dealers not to be afraid of failure, and to do it a few times until they succeeded. Moreover,
In order to boost morale, a reward of ten coins was specially promised. Whoever could make the Quyuan Plow first would get the money.
