How do you prove that you are a peasant disciple?"
Lin Fan asked.
"Lord Wu Hou, I am indeed a disciple of a peasant family. I am ashamed to say that my peasant family has been passed down alone since hundreds of years ago. It has been passed down to me for the eighty-eighth generation."
Xu Xing said with some shame.
A single biography of the eighty-eighth generation!
Lin Fan instantly lost interest in this person. If the farm family still had thousands or even hundreds of people, he could reuse them.
After all, farmers were very advanced in agricultural research during the Qin Dynasty. Reusing them could greatly increase the grain output of the Ming Dynasty.
However, the eighty-eighth generation single biography?
It can be said that Xu Xing's agricultural research is not necessarily better than his own, that is, he is at the level of a hundred-year-old farmer.
"Eighty-eight generations of single generations, I didn't expect that the farmhouse would be continued in this way, so what do you know?
Do you know what nitrogen fertilizer and potassium fertilizer are?”
Lin Fan asked.
…
Xu Xing was stunned at that time. Nitrogen fertilizer and potassium fertilizer may not be researched even if the farmers continue to prosper to this day. How could Xu Xing know about it.
Lin Fan also realized that the question he asked was too advanced, so he asked: "Do you know the basic principles of my farmyard fertilizer?"
"Back to Mr. Wuhou, the basic principle of farmyard manure should be fermentation. Mixing various types of feces and kitchen waste together, and sealing the environment will cause them to generate high temperatures."
"Such a high temperature will cause a qualitative change in these things. They will no longer be sticky, but will become fertile soil like soil!"
"This is similar to the fact that feces will turn into soil if it is buried in the soil for a long time. Lord Wuhou just accelerated this change."
Xu Xing said in a deep voice.
The farm family has continued to this day, and it is indeed in serious decline. His research on agriculture is not much better than that of ordinary people.
Even now that my family is in decline, I will have problems eating in the future. I still studied the basic principles of farmyard manure for a long time before I figured it out.
Lin Fan said in a deep voice: "You are a smart person. Although your answer is not very satisfactory, you still know the basic principles."
"This shows that all the peasant classics must have been lost when they were passed down to you."
Xu Xing looked ashamed and said: "There are still a few books left, but they are all incomplete. Besides, I don't know the writing of the Qin Dynasty, so I can't understand it."
"It's useless to understand it. Since the development of agriculture, some ideas from the Qin Dynasty have been subtle and the common people are familiar with it."
"What a pity! If the decline of farmers had not continued to this day, you would have researched this farmyard fertilizer long ago. What is the difference between today's farmers and ordinary people?"
Lin Fan sighed.
Xu Xing felt even more ashamed, and knelt on the ground with a plop, saying: "Master Wuhou, Xu Xing begs you to take me in, as long as you give me a full meal!"
"Sir Wuhou can research farmyard manure, which shows that his research on agriculture has many things that our farmers lack. Xu Xing just wants to stay with Lord Wuhou and get his teachings."
Ding!
"The system prompts that this person is the only descendant of the farm family. Accept this person as a disciple. If you sign in in the future, the chance of receiving agricultural rewards will increase."
kindness!
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment when he heard the system prompt. The system was so bad that he actually allowed himself to accept Xu Xing as his disciple.
Looking at Xu Xing, he seems to be about twenty-five years old. The most important thing for ancient people is respect and inferiority. Wouldn't this be too offensive to Xu Xing?
"Ahem! If you want to get my teachings, it's not impossible, but..."
Lin Fan is confused.
"Master Wuhou, please accept me as your disciple!"
Xu Xing said hurriedly when he heard that Lin Fan could teach him.
In his opinion, the knowledge Lin Fan mastered was definitely the most advanced and secret. If he didn't worship him as his master, how could he learn everything?
"is this okay?"
Lin Fan said, but he was secretly happy in his heart. This Xu Xing is really on the right track, very good.
Xu Xing hurriedly said: "Master Wuhou, our farm family values respecting teachers first and foremost. Although you are not as old as you are, you are more knowledgeable than me, so you can be my master!"
"Well, what you said makes sense. As the saying goes, if three people walk together, they must have a teacher. In this world, every plant, every tree, every flower, every fruit, even an ordinary old farmer, can be a teacher."
"Then I will accept you as my disciple. From now on, the production of farmyard manure will be left to you to manage."
Lin Fan said.
"This! Teacher, my understanding of farmyard manure is very superficial, I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this!"
Xu Xing said excitedly, even though he said he was not qualified, he was eager to do it.
"I know you want to take this opportunity to learn more about farmyard manure. This farmyard manure only needs to be piled together and fermented according to the ratio."
"As long as you are more careful, you can learn a lot. The nitrogen fertilizers and potassium fertilizers I just mentioned are also new fertilizers that I have been researching recently. When I develop them, I will teach them to you."
Lin Fan said in a deep voice.
Xu Xing kowtowed to Lin Fan excitedly, and then said, "Thank you very much, teacher!"
Lin Fan asked Xu Xing to get up and said: "From now on, you should dress according to your temper. In the eyes of this Wuhou, men are not superior to women."
Xu Xing was stunned at that time, Lord Wuhou actually saw that he was a woman!
Moreover, Mr. Wu Hou said that in his eyes, men were not superior to women. How could he not make her feel excited? Can women be equal to men?
I think of my father's disappointment in me when I was young. He didn't allow me to wear my daughter's clothes all day long, and he raised me as a boy.
Even so, she was ostracized and discriminated against by many people. In fact, she didn't have much hope when she entered Wuhou Mansion today.
He was even prepared to be discovered by Lin Fan that he was a girl and then be kicked out of Wuhou Mansion. Unexpectedly, Lord Wuhou didn't mind this.
"Teacher, you..."
Xu Xing's voice was trembling a little.
"During the Tang Dynasty, there was a Wu Zetian, but why can't farmers produce a Xu Xing?"
Lin Fan asked rhetorically.
"Teacher, thank you very much. Xu Xing will not let you down."
Xu Xing said in a deep voice.
"They say girls love to keep their homes clean. I'm going to have to deal with feces in the future. I don't know if you can bear it."
Lin Fan said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, Mr. Wu Hou. Xu Xing has been working in the fields with his father since he was young. He has experienced all kinds of hardships, and even shit will not affect me."
Xu Xing said in a deep voice.
"Well, that's good. I'll take you to the Hanlin Academy in a few days. There are many classics hidden there. Maybe I can find some classics related to your farm."
"Besides, there are people in the Hanlin Academy who know the writing of the Qin Dynasty. You can also show them the classics in your home at that time, and they may be able to help you translate them."
