The portable magic tower of the Three Kingdoms

"Hasn't the canal already started to be repaired? In addition, when I left Luoyang this time, I specifically found Bi Lan. I asked for a craftsman who can build overturned cars. I will build a batch around the canal later, and the irrigation problem can be solved." Liu Tao replied.

"This is indeed the case... But brother, why do you ask this?" Although Lu Yan agreed, she still didn't understand Liu Tao's sudden question.

"I'm just thinking, after casting this spell, will the crops in these fields double their final output, or double their growth rate in these three days." Liu Tao replied.

At first he thought that the production should be doubled, but after thinking about it, he was wrong. After all, it lasted for three days, this concept is a bit weird.

If it is minerals, the understanding of doubling in three days can be that the earth element pushes the ore from the ore veins to the surface, making mining more convenient, so the output doubles; in the case of wood, it can be that wood is easier to cut and processed into wood... Anyway, it is impossible It is to let the trees grow. After all, there is a limit to the trees that the loggers can cut down.

According to this concept, the earth element is aimed at changing the nature of the soil and the plant itself to increase production...

So he finally came up with a result: instead of doubling the final output, this thing is like a chemical fertilizer, which increases soil fertility and plant vitality for three days for free.

So, this thing is gold, right?In the final analysis, it is high-grade chemical fertilizer, which will not damage the soil, perhaps because the magic power replaces another part of the nutrients, but this area is indeed powerful, after all, it is a large area of ​​land in Yunzhong County!

After all, the spring wheat can be harvested in about two to three months... If it doesn't hurt the soil, you can also consider adding a season of winter wheat. If you harvest twice or even three times a year, the food problem will naturally not be a problem!

The only pity is that the effect only covers Yunzhong County, and he has no reason to run around, so it's all mobile money!

Besides, it can't just be food, wood and stone, or even minerals, you can also consider it.But for now, food is more important.After all, there was really no grain in the treasury.

The current cost is entirely the result of the support of the three Zhongshan families.Suddenly, I understood why Zhen Yi suddenly extended the support period. Under normal circumstances, otherwise, there would really be no gains.

"Heaven rewards those who work hard. You used to only know how to claim this land, but did nothing for it. The disasters of the past two years are the punishment for you. Now I have come and brought you to dredge the canals. You have done something for this land, so the heavens feel that this is such a miracle, you must take it as a warning!" Liu Tao then shouted loudly.

The people who were still bowing down were stunned at first when they heard Liu Tao's words, then felt a little ashamed, and finally turned into self-blame.It's just that amidst this self-blame, there is also a little helplessness.

Living is still a problem, and they all want to cultivate more land, grow more food, and harvest more, so that they can exchange for more money and pay taxes.In such an environment, who can consider the feelings of this land.

In particular, many naturalized Hu people are not farming people themselves, and their handling of the land is of course not comparable to that of the Han people.In Liu Tao's view, the cultivated land in front of him is simply a waste.

For reforms like this, we can only wait for the follow-up, and then proceed slowly... There is no rush for farming!

Chapter 245 Surrounded by mountains is the problem

When there are things to do, time starts to seem like not enough.After a busy day, it seems that the sun sets in the blink of an eye when you open your eyes.

"Remember we went north after the Lantern Festival?" Liu Tao leaned on the soft bed, enjoying Ren Hongchang's massage.This girl learned one-handed massage skills in the palace, and the soothing effect is not much, and the provocative meaning is stronger.

The slender hands are soft and boneless, like a light veil brushing over the body, which is even more sultry.

So Liu Tao also took the opportunity to do something, and wiped some oil, Xiao Nizi just blushed, and faintly worked harder.

Hearing Liu Tao's question, he slowed down a little, thought for a while, and replied: "Returning to the young master, it is indeed the case. We walked for more than ten days from Luoyang to Yunzhong, and rested for two more days .Stabilized in the cloud, already early February."

The beginning of February is the lunar calendar, which is almost March in the Gregorian calendar.Ordinarily, spring plowing can already start, but in places like Yunzhong, it should be better to plow in March and April... No wonder Zhong felt that there was something wrong with these fields.

Cultivation tools are the problem, and too early plowing is also a problem. Without deep plowing, it means that the eggs have not been completely killed. It is hard to say whether there will be a locust plague... In other words, it is not necessary to start thinking about this before the locusts appear.

After all, if I remember correctly, there seems to be no locust plague this year!

From the beginning of reform, organizing manpower dredging, and teaching those barbarians who were tested.In a blink of an eye, a month has passed.

This month, he used the 'Earth Dragon's Gift' on the field every three days. Needless to say, the crops in the past twenty days had reached the level of two months. Depending on the situation, they could be harvested in mid-April. It's completely cheating.

Facts have proved that this magic is a bug in farming, provided that there is enough mana.The most helpless thing is that he is the only one in the world who can do it.

There are plains around Yunzhong, which means that there are no minerals and forestry, and there is no place to quarry.The county magistrate said that Wujin was surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there used to be forest farms and quarries, but now there is no government office there...

Basically a group of 'naturalized' barbarians, entrenched there, self-sufficient.According to the practice in Xianbei, they elected a leader, called the "county magistrate", and then elected several people to complete the officials.

The situation in the three counties of Wujin, Chengle and Xianyang is actually the same.All the Han people who were able to relocate have already relocated. As for these Hu people, it is not known whether they were naturalized or not.

"It's been two months since we set off from Luoyang..." Liu Tao stood up, "Should I solve the water conservancy problem first, or stabilize the law and order in Yunzhong County first?"

"The servant girl is just a mere maid, how can she intervene at will in such a military matter?" Ren Hongchang was startled.This thing can't be touched indiscriminately, especially those scholars, who use 'Men Ji Chen' to suppress them at every turn.

"It's nothing, just talk casually between master and servant. Besides, with your status, theoretically, after two years, you will be taken in. There must be someone in this back house, right?" Liu Tao squeezed He squeezed her pretty face and said with a smile.

"Young master, this is a servant of evil..." Although Ren Hongchang expressed panic, there was a tinge of sweetness in his heart.Liu Tao was rewarded by Emperor Han, but he never moved himself.Considering that both of her sisters had been given away, she feared the same for herself.

"Forget it, I won't embarrass you... For this, I'll discuss it with them before making a decision." Liu Tao said casually, "Continue... Besides, don't make small moves."

"Yes..." Ren Hongchang has already changed his gestures to massage, and the soothing effect is much better than before.Liu Tao only felt that the fatigue of the day was well relieved.

At this moment, he is closing his eyes and resting his mind, but he is still thinking about the affairs of these three counties in his heart.

What really confuses him is that the three counties still pay a full amount of taxes every year, which is paid according to the standards of the Han people.At the same time, the strong men in the three counties do not serve corvee, which is also the most worthy of criticism.

According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, or according to the custom, the taxes they originally had to pay should also be appropriately increased.At present, the three counties give him the feeling that it is more like using taxes to teach 'protection fees', which is a bit autonomous.

It is a pity that he has not given the right to self-government to a certain place, and it is estimated that the entire Han people do not agree with this system.Now that he is not a prince, he must keep a low profile in his work.

Another problem is that he has no one in hand.I sent people to Yingchuan to look for a batch, but there has been no reply yet.Including Yan Liang, Wen Chou, there has been no news about these two, and Liu Tao has almost given up.

There are very few scribes in this place where the birds don't shit. Whether the scribes under Liu Tao's current command can make up enough officials in the three counties is still a question.

Especially in Jiling County, the old magistrate, I managed to promote him... As a result, this guy was overjoyed, or the greatest desire deep in his heart had been satisfied, so he passed away within two days of taking office.

It is unavoidable that another subordinate should be arranged to go there, and it is not called the county magistrate. According to the county, the county magistrate will be set up, and the county magistrate will not be set up separately.After all, it is the rear, there is no hidden danger, and there is no need for so many people.

The next day, according to the routine, I used the 'Earth Dragon's Gift', and the effect just disappeared today.

After the spell was cast, all the subordinates were summoned and told about yesterday's problem.

"Hey, it's such a hassle, I'll just lead the troops there, and it's over!" Zhang Fei heard that his brother was making a fuss over a molehill, and there was nothing to be afraid of these naturalized barbarians.

"The spring plowing has been completed, and the people have started to devote themselves to dredging one after another. Our soldiers have been freed and can be used on the battlefield." Lu Yan replied, "It's just how to fight and to what extent still needs to be discussed. "

"How else can you fight, just fight!" Zhang Fei retorted, "I didn't know before I came here. I thought that I was on the front line and would face Xianbei's southward movement at any time. But when I came here, I found out that the huge Yunzhong County was surrounded by the crowd. Surrounded by mountains, it is difficult for Xianbei people to go south."

Suddenly I understood why the soldiers were all placed in Yanmen and Wuyuan, because if you go south, you can't bypass these two places.

"You all think that Xianbei can only detour through Wuyuan, or come over from Yanmen?" Liu Tao looked at everyone suspiciously.

Everyone also looked at Liu Tao suspiciously, and said to himself: Isn't that the case? !

"I can only say that you don't know enough about Xianbei..." Liu Tao complained, "Although Xianbei is also nomadic, it is completely different from the Huns in essence. They originally lived in the mountains and forests, and horses were more for transportation. And to deal with grassland warfare."

I don't know if it is true, but I only know that Xianbei originated from the Daxing'an Mountains, and at least several generations, even more than a dozen generations, lived in the mountains and forests.They may be excellent hunters and warriors, but they are definitely not the Huns who grew up on horseback.

Perhaps, it is closer to Houjin.Claiming to be good at riding and shooting, in fact riding and shooting are separate.It's just that he took over the territory of the Huns and reproduced for several generations. Today's riding skills should have improved a lot, but the ancestor's ability should not be forgotten.

"Xianbei's going south, the mountains and forests can't stop them at all." Liu Tao looked at the crowd, "but they will cover our eyes..."

Chapter 246 Yan Liangwen Ugly Arrives

"Is this what Xianbei is like?" Everyone was taken aback when they heard the words. After all, everyone's feeling for Xianbei is that they come here on horseback and then leave on horseback. They feel that the so-called barbarians are all of this type.
