Chapter 1392: Smelling the wind! (Thanks to Ling and Fan for the reward!)

11 min read2,694 words

Watching the fleet leave, Li Zexuan went directly to the workshop.

Yesterday, his family bought more than two hundred catties of cotton seeds

from Hu Ren. These days, he has to start arrogantly letting the servants in

the house start growing seedlings, and seedlings also need a machine-a

nutrient bowl maker.

If cotton seeds are sown directly in the ground, a large part of them will not

germinate and the survival rate is very low! In his previous life, Li Zexuan

was also a rural person, and he had experienced all the whole process of

growing cotton. He remembered that when he planted cotton in his home, he had

to plant cotton seeds in a nutrient bowl, and when the seeds germinated, the

seedlings were transplanted into the ground.

The nutrient bowl is filled with soil that is loose, fertile, easy to retain

water and fertilizer, disease-free, and weed-free seeds into the nutrient

bowl's manufacturing machine. Through this machine, one by one with a diameter

of 11 cm and a height of 11 cm is produced. With a 10 to 12 cm cup-shaped

nutrient bowl, press the cotton seeds on the nutrient bowl, and then cover the

nutrient bowl with a film, and wait for it to germinate!

After the cotton seeds germinate, transplant them into the ground together

with the nutrient bowl, and you're done!

The biggest advantage of this is that it can greatly improve the survival rate

of cotton seeds. Compared with direct sowing, this nutrient pot sowing method

can save at least three times more seeds! If the people of Lantian County all

use this nutrient bowl method in the future, then they may use less than a

catty of cotton seeds per mu of land!

In modern times, in the South, using the nutrient pot planting method to grow

one acre of cotton, about 0.7 kg of seeds is enough. In the north, using the

direct sowing method, about 3-6 kilograms of seeds are needed per mu.

Therefore, the planting method in modern nutrient bowls has always been

favored by the vast southern regions. But there are also shortcomings, such as

labor costs, and the need for manpower and material resources.

In addition, the seedlings are grown in the nutrient bowl and then

transplanted. This method can make the cotton seedlings stronger, and

accordingly more cotton can be produced in the future!

Therefore, this method not only saves seeds, but also guarantees high yield!

Moreover, the most important thing is that this method of growing cotton has

not yet appeared in this era!

Why was cotton only a kind of precious flower for people to admire in the Tang

Dynasty, instead of large-scale planting? Because this thing is expensive! But

why is it expensive? In addition to the fact that there are few people growing

cotton in the Central Plains and most of them need to be "imported", the most

important reason is its low survival rate and low yield. Few people are

willing to grow it on a large scale! As the saying goes, things are rare and

expensive, so this cotton can only be regarded as a precious flower for people

to watch!

As for making clothes, it's too extravagant! Only people who are stupid and

rich will do this!

Therefore, Li Zexuan intends to implement his nutrient bowl planting

technology. First of all, he has to go to the workshop to build a nutrient

bowl maker. He plans to build the hand-pressed cotton nutrient bowl maker!

At this time, Li Zexuan was saved thanks to his past life. Fortunately, he

came from a rural family. Otherwise, how would he understand this!

This kind of hand-pressed cotton nutritious bowl making machine is not

difficult to make. Its structure is a bit similar to the push-rod briquette

mold made by the workshop. The fertile soil takes shape!

The structure is the same, so Li Zexuan came to the workshop and talked to Fu

Bo. Fu Bo understood it directly, and ensured that the hand-pressed cotton

nutritious bowl making machine would be ready at noon and sent to Yunshan.

Li Zexuan returned to Yunshan contentedly.

…………………………

At the same time, dozens of bureaucrats rushed out of Lantian County, each

holding a notice, toward the villages in all directions.

"Huh? People from the county government are here to post a notice?"

"What's the matter? The yamen arrested soon came to our Yujiazhuang to post a

notice! What a surprise!"

On the wall at the entrance of Yujiazhuang village, the people gathered

together and talked a lot while looking at the notice that was just posted.

If it is left in the past, if there is something in the yamen that needs to be

notified to the people, just post a notice in the key places in the city. It

is very rare to directly distribute the notice to the village like today! No

wonder these dealers find it strange.

But it can also be seen that this time the county magistrate how caring about

Li Zexuan's order!

"Yu Xiucai! Where is Yu Xiucai? Let Yu Xiucai come and see what is written on

this notice!"

"Here is coming! Quickly give in, Yu Xiucai is here!"

"Yu Xiucai, please help me read, what is written on this notice? Could it be

that the county government is going to raise taxes on us again?"

Amidst the thousands of calls, Yu Dejing, who had several connections with Li

Zexuan in Yujiazhuang, walked out.

"Uncle Zhong, now Master Hou is in charge of Lantian County. It is impossible

for the county government to raise taxes for us, so don't guess! Let me see

what is written on this notice first?"

Yu Dejing comforted Zhong Lizheng, and then looked at the notice posted on the

wall. After a while, he was stunned!

"Yu Xiucai? Yu Xiucai? What's wrong with you? What is written on the notice!

Isn't it true that Lao Zhong guessed me right?"

Zhong Lizheng saw Yu Dejing's wide-open eyes staring in place, without saying

a word, but a very surprised look. He pulled Yu Dejing's sleeve quickly,

worrying.

"Yes! Yu Xiucai! What is written on it?"

The people were also anxious and yelled.

Yu Dejing, who was in shock, finally woke up. He swallowed and suppressed the

shock in his heart forcibly, and said:

"This notice says that Master Hou intends to promote the planting of Bai Diezi

in Lantian County. He has asked someone to buy seeds! Starting today, as long

as farmers are willing to plant Bai Diezi, they can immediately report to the

county government. Before the seeds arrive, the farmers who report to the

county government can go to the county government to receive a catty of white

dice seeds for free as long as they can cultivate an acre of wasteland!"

"Receive a pound of white stack seeds for free? Yu Xiucai, you...you read that

right?"

"Yeah! Yu Xiucai! This pound of Bai Diezi flower seeds are worth seven or

eight, and Master Hou really wants to give it to us for free? Doesn't Master

Hou have to die?"

Before Yu Dejing finished speaking, the people around immediately exclaimed in

disbelief.

"Guys, please listen to me first!"

Yu Dejing hurriedly began to maintain order, and when the surroundings became

quiet again, he said loudly: "This notice also says that when the dealers

receive free white stack flowers, they need to sign an agreement with the

Yamen. After the fold flower matures, the flower seeds inside need to be

stripped out, and all of it must be handed over to the county government.

Those who don’t hand it in will directly pay the penalty with the profit and

the fine!

As for the tidbits produced by Bai Diezi, they can be brought back and sold

directly, or used to make winter clothes, so that they will not be frozen in

the winter. No matter what, the Bai Diezi tidbits belong to the farmers, how

Use it, Hou Ye will not interfere! ! "

When Yu Dejing finished speaking, everyone was shocked!

After shock is ecstasy!

"The Lord Hou actually gave out the seeds of the white stack of flowers for

free? And all the white stack of flowers that were planted belong to us?"

"Master Hou is so benevolent and kind! If you can get a catty of seeds, you

can earn dozens of coins if you don't talk about it!"

"Dozens? Zhong Lizheng, are there so many?"

"Hey! I won't say anything about dozens of pens. As long as the harvest is not

bad, you can earn more than one hundred pens!"

"Haha! What are you waiting for? Go to the county government to register! Last

time, the greenhouse vegetables promoted by Lord Hou, Yujiazhuang did not

catch up with this white stack of flowers, so we can't miss it!"

"That's right! That's right! Hurry up to register at the county office! If you

are late, maybe it's gone!"

"Go! Go!"

Suddenly, a group of people was like a swarm of bees. Before they could put

down the farm tools such as shovels and hoes on their shoulders, they swarmed

directly towards the town of Lantian County!

"Hey hey! Wait for me!"

Yu Dejing yelled twice and quickly followed.

………………………………

A similar situation also occurred in the dozens of other Zhuangzi in Lantian

County, all of which were boiling at the same time!

Go to the county office to register, and then reclaim an acre of wasteland,

and you can get a catty of white dice flower seeds for free. In the eyes of

farmers, isn't it the same as picking up money? And even a few dozen or even

hundreds of money!

How can this make the dealers not tempted?

Especially those farmers who later merged into Li Zexuan's fief. When Li

Zexuan promoted greenhouse vegetables before, they were not within the scope

of Li Zexuan's fief and naturally did not enjoy that wave of "dividends". Now

this second wave of "dividends" has finally come. Yes, of course they will

desperately catch it!

Of course, not only did they want to catch it, but the farmers of the eight

Zhuangzi who first followed Li Zexuan were even more active. Because of the

vegetable shed last time, they convinced them that there is meat to follow Li

Zexuan, as long as it is Li Zexuan’s decision, unconditional support. ,

Support and it's over, you can definitely make a lot of money!

Therefore, on every road and trail in Lantian County, you can see farmers

running wildly, just like ants returning to their nests. Black and crushed

ants come from all directions towards their nest-Lantian County. Run!

Three rows of tables have already been set up on the street in front of the

county government office in Lantian County, and they are waiting!

One row of tables faces the street on the west, one row of tables faces the

street on the east, and the other row of tables faces the street on the south.

The dealers coming from all directions can register in three lines. It can

also greatly save time!

"The magistrate! Here comes! Here! The people are here! But why do they come

with shovels and hoes?"

The county magistrate He took a group of county officials and waited at the

gate of the county government. Suddenly, the county magistrate became excited

and quickly said to the county magistrate.

However, after seeing the "equipment" of the dealers, the master book was a

little confused. If someone who didn't know saw this, they thought that these

people were going to the county government to rebel!

The county magistrate He said with a smile: "Let the government officials

register to prevent people from other counties from getting into it! This is

Hou Ye's favor to the people of our county, but you can't let people from

other counties take advantage of it! You know? "

The master book hurriedly said: "Yes! Lord County Magistrate!"

While they were talking, dozens of dealers had already ran over. Seeing the

tables already set here, the dealers lined up very well. There were three

tables in the street in each direction, a total of nine tables. This means

that you can line up nine teams.

"Official man, my family wants to grow white stack flowers, I want to

register!"

"What is it called? Which Zhuangzi's?"

"My name is Liu Mang, from Liujiazhuang!"

"Yeah! Good! I have already registered for you! Lord Hou can buy the seeds in

half a month. Before that, you have to cultivate an acre of wasteland,

preferably the kind of hillside land facing the sun. , So the harvest can be

good, do you know?"

"Got it! Got it! Thank you for your reminder!"

"Next~!"

"............"

The quiet gate of the county government suddenly became lively, and it was no

exaggeration to describe it in four words!

The early risers in Guancheng County were stunned when they saw this scene.

"Hey! What are they doing? Why are they all gathered in the county office?"

"It seems they are all dealers outside the city!"

"The dealers? What are the dealers going to the county office for?"

"I know! I know! I just saw the notice of the county government at the gate of

the city, saying that it was Hou Ye who intends to promote the planting of

white dilapis flowers in Lantian County. Those who are willing to plant can

register at the county government as long as they can If one acre of wasteland

is cultivated within the specified time, you can get a pound of Bai Diezi

flower seeds for free~!"

"What? Get a pound of white stack seeds for free? There are other good things

in this world? No, I have to register too!"

"Bah! Boss Wang, why are you happy? Do you have a field? Do you want to take

the flowers and sell them for yourself? The notice says that after you receive

the flowers, you have to sign an agreement with the county government. When it

is harvested, Bai Diezi tidbits can belong to the people, but all the flower

seeds inside must be stripped out and handed over to the county government. If

you don’t pay, you will be fined ten times! Boss Wang, you can get it now, but

you can do it later. I have to pay a fine of ten pennies!"

"Uh~! That's the way it turns out! The old man won't take it~! Leave the

opportunity to these dealers!"

"Tsk tusk! Now the dealers outside the city have sent it out! This pound of

flowers and the harvest can be sold for dozens of times!"

"Oh, what a pity, who made us not a dealer?"

At this moment, the people in the city began to envy the villagers! It is

really weird!

With the passage of time, the team of dealers in the three directions became

longer and longer, and the team from the south was about to line up to the

gate of the city. Tens of thousands of dealers outside the city suddenly

swarmed into Lantian County~www.mtlnovel .com~ This small city seems crowded

all of a sudden!

Those merchants who came to the county seat of Lantian County to do business

or the dignitaries who came here to watch the football game started to inquire

about what happened when they saw this scene. It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t

matter, everyone opened their mouths in shock. People can't help but sigh that

the welfare of the people of Lantian County is so good! From time to time, Li

Zexuan "issued red envelopes" to the people, and it was the kind of big "red

envelopes" with dozens of hundreds of points!

And what happened here quickly spread to other counties!
