Chapter one hundred and ninety-eight: fertile soil and fertile fields and divine beasts
Chapter 198 Fertile soil and fertile fields and mythical beasts are in good health
Everyone was stunned by the harvest scene in front of them. The yield was three stones and two bushels per mu, which is the legendary yield that can only be found in fertile fields.
Every farmer who digs food in the fields has had a sweet dream.
The fields cultivated at home are all fertile and good fields;
The rice grows tall and long, with densely packed ears;
You can feed your family just by farming;
If you work harder, your life at home will become richer...
This is the simplest and most real yearning of the common people. Only the common people understand the hard work of farming. It looks like food, but in fact it is sweat.
This year the people of Xidu have cultivated more land than in previous years, but the people of Xidu feel that it is easier than in previous years. There are iron plows and oxen for plowing, as well as various iron farm tools, iron hoes, iron rakes, iron shovels...
.
This already made the people of Xidu feel very lucky, but when they saw that the poor farmland of the old man's family had turned into fertile and fertile land, they were all excited.
Some people's eyes were already wet.
"Will our fields become fertile soil and fertile fields in the future, and all fields can produce three stones per hour?"
None of the people answered him, and everyone focused their eyes on their king with extremely ardent eyes.
Is it okay or not? The king will be convinced only if he says it.
Everyone's eyes are focused on Yao Yun, even Wu Tong is no exception.
Yao Yun is not the little king who just came to the throne a year ago. After a year of experience, he is much calmer. Facing the expectant eyes of everyone, he smiled softly.
In fact, the current rice yield of three shi per mu is nothing in Yao Yun's eyes. With the continuous domestication of rice, the cultivation of improved varieties, and intensive farming, there is no problem with the yield per mu. Let alone the yield of 10 or 20 shi per mu in future generations.
But it shouldn't be a problem to achieve a yield of five or six stones per mu.
Thinking of this, Yao Yun shook his head.
Yao Yun's shaking of his head suddenly touched the hearts of the people present. Everyone was uneasy. Some people's faces suddenly fell down, and there were tears in their eyes.
First it gives a hope, and then the hope is shattered in an instant, even a tough guy can't stand it.
Wu Tong was also anxious at this time. He had just finished his dream of making the whole country fertile and fertile. If the king rejected it, he would not be able to calm down: "Your Majesty, is it possible or not? You are laughing and shaking your head. We
My heart is in my throat."
Seeing Wu Tong's anger, Yao Yun felt funny in his heart, and immediately said: "Second elder, don't get me wrong, Gu shook his head not because he could not reach three stones per mu, but because Gu felt that two or three stones per mu was just a starting point. By cultivating good seeds, it would be reasonable.
With adequate water conservancy irrigation and reasonable fertilization, the yield per mu will only get higher and higher. How can we be satisfied with the yield of only three stones per mu?"
After Yao Yun finished speaking, everyone was stunned. The king actually disliked the yield of three stones per mu, and even said that he could produce more per mu...
The common people just felt dizzy and had an unreal dreamlike feeling.
If someone had told them before that their ordinary farmland could produce three stones per acre, or even more, they would definitely look at him as if they were a fool. Even if it was the king's words, they would be suspicious.
But when the king said it, no one believed it.
With Zhu Yu in front of them, they couldn't help but not believe it.
...
The news that the bitter old man's family was able to produce three stones of grain per acre spread quickly throughout Xidu, and the people of the entire capital fell into a carnival.
The power of thoughts of massive sentient beings rose up, and Yao Yun was overjoyed to see it.
However, he didn't have time to experience the benefits brought about by the sudden increase in the power of sentient beings for a while. The second elder Wu Tong was dragging Yao Yun around the fields.
It's not just Ku Laohan's family who fertilizes the land. Speaking of the palace's paddy fields, it's the highlight. Yao Yun used all the fertilizer from last year's retting and composting. This makes the rice under the palace's name grow very well. Compared with Ku Laohan's family, the land is fertilized.
It has to be good but not bad!
Yao Yun took Wu Tong to check everywhere.
When Wu Tong saw the rice ears bearing numerous fruits, he was still a little uneasy, so he sent a large number of palace guards, and Xidu soldiers harvested five acres of land on the spot.
There are many people and it is easy to work. The strong soldiers set out to harvest, thresh and weigh the crops quickly.
Three stones and one bucket, three stones and five buckets, two stones and eight buckets, two stones and seven buckets, three stones and two stones...
As a result, Mr. Wu Tong was greatly relieved. The yield of three shi per mu was not a lie. Some paddy fields with fertile soil even far exceeded three shi, and the minimum yield was as much as two shi per mu.
"Your Majesty, God bless our country of Xi!" Looking at the mountains of rice in front of him, Wu Tong held Yao Yun's hand with great comfort.
Yao Yun responded with a smile.
After traveling to this world, he saw mysterious and magnificent supernatural imagination, ghosts, monsters, ferocious beasts and even legendary divine creatures. However, at the same time, he also saw the harsh environment, the difficulty of survival, and the barrenness around him.
Surrounded by the original.
It would be an honor for him to bring some changes to this world.
After a moment of excitement, Wu Tong seemed to remember something and stared at Yao Yun with burning eyes.
Yao Yun was a little embarrassed when he was stared at, so he asked: "Second Elder, what's wrong with you?"
"Your Majesty, I thought of something, a big happy event. I didn't dare to think about it before, but now, hehehe..."
Wu Tong smiled inexplicably, and Yao Yun was confused: "What a happy event, is it related to paddy fields?"
"Yes, has your Majesty heard of Dangkang?" Wu Tong asked, stroking his beard.
Yao Yun didn't react for a while and stared blankly at the second elder Wu Tong.
Wu Tong smiled kindly and said: "There is a beast. It looks like a dolphin and has teeth. Its name is Kang. It makes its own cry. If you see it, you will be a big beast in the world."
Yao Yun nodded: "Oh~ It turns out that Dangkang is a pig with long tusks, um, a wild boar. It can herald a good harvest? Isn't this an auspicious beast?"
"Your Majesty, please don't keep your mouth shut. You should think that Kang Nai is a mythical beast and a pig. It's all nonsense." Wu Tong frowned and waved his hand to interrupt Yao Yun's words.
Seeing the serious tone of the second elder, Yao Yun no longer flirted with Meng Lang, looking like a good baby.
The second elder Wu Tongnu pursed his lips, knowing that his tone just now was too strong, so he softened his tone and said: "Your Majesty, you are right. Dangkang is also an auspicious beast that can herald a good harvest. Although it looks ugly, it is respected by the people.
favorite."
Yao Yun nodded in agreement and followed the local customs. Although he was a time traveler, he respected the local customs very much, except for human sacrifice of course.
The second elder Wu Tong said again: "Your Majesty, Dangkang can not only herald a good harvest, but also nourish and fertilize the land. Dangkang favors cultivated fields, turning poor fields into middle fields, and middle fields into fertile and good fields!"
Yao Yun was shocked when he heard this. Before, he was wondering why there were so many extraordinary creatures in this world, including spiritual herbs, elixirs, and even magical medicines, but why the food output was average.
It turns out it’s not that it doesn’t exist, it’s just that he hasn’t come into contact with it.
"Second Elder, how can we gain the favor of the divine beast Dangkang?"
"As long as there is a good harvest, there is a chance to attract it. When Kang appears, the world will be prosperous! I think that the Izumo Kingdom once had a grand occasion of Kang Chengxiang. This is how the Izumo Kingdom has thousands of fertile soil and fertile fields. This year our Xi Kingdom
There is also hope of being favored by the mythical beast!"
