In the second month of the lunar calendar, the spring thunder begins to roar, awakening the hibernating insects that have been hibernating underground over the winter.
Spring plowing begins here.
This morning
Jia Junyuan approached Li Min.
"Sir! I have started planting the seeds I brought back according to your wishes. They are growing very well in the greenhouse! This is a good start. Moreover, cotton and rice will be planted at the end of March. This time,
Shengtang Group has planted 100,000 acres of rice and 200,000 acres of cotton! As for the seeds, they are also provided to the people for planting, and the quantity is calculated in tens of millions of acres."
Generally speaking, the rice grown on one acre of land can only feed four people for a year.
In other words, the area planted by Shengtang Group is only enough to feed 400,000 people for a year, which is just enough to feed the employees of Shengtang Group.
If tens of millions of acres are planted, it can prevent 40 million people from going hungry, and there will be more than one type of food.
People will only think about having children when they are full. No one will think about having children when they are hungry. How can they think about having children when they are not full!?
The group's approach can provide prerequisites for the huge population growth after the Tang Dynasty.
One year later, the population of Datang will inevitably increase explosively.
This is a great thing for Li Min.
Because the group is also people-oriented!
Only talents can strengthen the country!
Talent comes from the population. The larger the base, the more elites there are!
As for cotton, the yield of one acre of cotton is about 500 kilograms.
In summer, one pound of cotton can make two T-shirts, including losses.
Theoretically, one acre of cotton can produce a thousand T-shirts.
So two hundred thousand acres, that's a huge amount of output.
Of course, it can’t always be T-shirts, skirts, etc. In winter, it will also be quilts and cotton-padded clothes...
The output of cotton will solve the problem of warmth for the people.
Only when you are well fed and warmly dressed can you do other things.
This is what he instructed Jia Junyuan to do.
"Very good! You did a good job! You should do a good study on the growth of those seeds. It is best to publish it in a book to teach people how to plant it! What kind of fertilizer is needed? If necessary, we can add a lot of it
Produce fertilizer and build a fertilizer factory!”
"Fertilizer? Fertilizer factory? What is that?"
Chemical fertilizers are chemical fertilizers. Plants cannot grow without some chemical raw materials, and chemical fertilizer factories synthesize these raw materials!"
Li Min said this.
The raw materials of fertilizers mainly come from chemical manufacturing and mining of ores, especially some ores containing nutrient elements that are simple in composition and have high nutrient content. They can be used after being mined and simply processed. However, some fillers are added to fertilizers, such as kaolin and talc.
, diatomaceous earth, etc., added to fertilizers can improve the performance of fertilizers and have the characteristics of increasing volume and weight.
"Sir, you are really amazing, but I still don't understand something." Jia Junyuan said.
This thing is still a bit difficult for him to understand, and Li Min also understands that it is really difficult for him to accept this now.
"Just like when you plant, you need to apply manure and urine. They are fertilizers, but their fertility is often relatively simple and requires more raw materials to be added!..."
Finally, Li Min explained.
It took him about ten minutes to explain Jia Junyuan clearly.
Li Min explained it very clearly and made people feel very powerful!
With chemical fertilizers, crop yields can be increased, and the yield per unit area will be higher!
"Sir, you are indeed knowledgeable and talented. When you say this, I finally understand. Then I think this fertilizer plant is very necessary. In the future, I only need to write down in the book when to fertilize and when to water, then
That’s it!”
Some people are born to do this, and they can get through it with just a few clicks.
"Yes, that's right. Since you think so, you will take the lead on the fertilizer factory. I will give you a book to study carefully and then carry out mass production. As for how much money you need,
You can make an advance directly from Ruxue, and if you need land, go directly to a small room on the right outside the group door to apply. There are permanent officials from the court there, and they will give their approval! As long as it is for planting, just apply!
"
"Is that so? That's really convenient."
Jia Junyuan was shocked.
Unexpectedly, the imperial court would send people to places near the Shengtang Group to specifically review and approve the land.
"Yes, with them here, we can improve efficiency and make our work go faster!"
"By the way, when the time comes, I will ask Yan Lide to contact you and ask him to send a trustworthy construction talent to plan the construction of the fertilizer plant."
"That's great!" Jia Jun never expected that Li Min would do things so quickly.
This has been arranged.
The future is promising.
The future is bright.
Is this why Li Min can make Shengtang Group bigger and stronger?
That's really powerful.
At this time, he had a question in his mind.
A question I've always wanted to ask.
Judging from the court's approach, it seems that there is something wrong.
So, he asked: "Sir, I have a personal question here. I don't know whether to ask it or not?"
Li Min looked at him, what did this guy want to ask?
"You ask, what's the matter?"
"Have you and His Majesty reconciled?"
Jia Junyuan asked.
This is very crucial. If Li Min and Li Shimin really reconcile, it will undoubtedly be another kind of take-off for Shengtang Group.
That's really great.
But for Li Min, Li Min did not want to reconcile with Li Shimin.
To reconcile, Li Shimin had to take the initiative to apologize. In that case, he could also consider it. If he took the initiative to admit his mistake, it would be impossible.
Moreover, if there is really a reconciliation, then doesn’t his property have to be owned by Li Shimin and Datang?
Just based on Li Shimin's words? He said that he would give the throne to himself, so he had to believe it?
Li Shimin can be regarded as an emperor throughout the ages, and his methods are frightening. He will not trust such an emperor.
After all, people are selfish.
Why should you give up your things to others?
Shengtang Group was defeated by himself.
impossible.
So, he said: "What do you think?"
"I don't know, I just feel that His Majesty has released a lot of goodwill!"
"He did this because Shengtang Group gave him some benefits, such as longevity medicine!" Li Min said directly.
His words can be said to be clear to the point.
Jia Junyuan now understood why.
"Yes, what sir said is absolutely true. In this way, my doubts have finally been cleared up!"
"Anything else?"
"there is none left!"
"Then you go do it quickly. It's best to finish it before sowing. When the time comes, I will publicize it for you in Zhenguan Newspaper!"
