Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked
Chapter 5 05: Zhu Querk’s grain production plan
Before traveling to the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Li received a time travel countdown reminder in modern society, and also received a storage ring!
The countdown to time travel is ten days, and the space he has to store the ring is as big as a small warehouse!
At first, Zhu Yue thought this was some kind of system in a novel, but it turned out that this time-travel countdown would not communicate with him, but only reminded him that he would time-travel in ten days, and that he could carry everything in the storage ring with him!
At that time, he prepared many modern items in the storage ring, including the necessary seeds of these crops, as well as various basic industrial technologies and military technologies, etc.!
After he finished all the preparations, he took the storage ring with him and traveled to the Ming Dynasty!
Of course, the most precious among these things must be the large number of modern books brought by Zhu Yue!
Because these books record some modern knowledge and technology from later generations!
For example, how to make salt, how to make glass, how to make cement and other basic technologies, the threshold required is not high. Even in the Ming Dynasty, it should not be difficult to get started as long as you have the method. of!
However, after traveling through time, Zhu Yue tragically discovered that his storage ring could not be opened!
I can't open the ring, and I can't even use the salt-making technique to get rid of the red oak tree!
After all, although he has traveled through time in modern society, and although he eats refined salt in modern times, how many of the contemporary young people can make salt themselves?
Unless you are majoring in chemistry or manufacturing salt!
Fortunately, Zhu Yue was still living in the palace at that time, and it didn't matter whether these things could be taken out before the war!
It wasn't until half a year ago that Zhu Yue understood one of the eight magical skills, the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements, that he was finally able to open this storage ring!
Fortunately, everything inside was well preserved and nothing was lost!
After being able to open the storage ring, the first thing Zhu Yue did was to read through the books and find out how to make salt!
Currently, the salt making plant in Hanzhong Prefecture is also under construction!
If we want to say that the most popular thing among Bashu and Han is the salt mine!
However, with the Ming Dynasty's current salt production technology, these ready-made salt mines are basically poisonous and cannot be eaten at all. This is also common sense known to ordinary people!
But Zhu Yue knew that as long as the impurities and toxins in the salt mines were removed according to the salt-making technology of later generations, these poisonous salt mines could be directly turned into the finest table salt!
In the future, these salts will be nothing but money!
What is Hanzhong lacking most now?
Most in need of money!
As for the food problem, Zhu Yue is confident that he can definitely solve it with the excellent seeds he brought. As for the money problem, naturally, he will make money by whatever comes quickly!
The salt business is definitely one of the most profitable industries among all businesses!
And for Zhu Yue now, it is simply a hugely profitable deal!
During the construction of the salt plant, Zhu Yue also gave a batch of potato seeds to Han Princess Cao, and asked her to arrange for people to plant them directly in the palace's own fields!
Looking at the large piece of fertile land in front of him, Zhu Yue showed a very satisfied look on his face.
In addition to the ripe potatoes, there are also corn fields and rice fields, all of which are about to be harvested!
Although he did not bring a lot of grain seeds, he believed that after several seasons of planting and cultivation, he would like to promote it on a large scale to the entire fiefdom, which would only be a matter of one or two years!
After Zhu Yuanzhang determined the vassal system, he also established the two land ownership systems of Huangzhuang and Wangzhuang!
Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated that when the princes and princes reach the age of fifteen, they can also get sixteen hectares of fertile land, and they are free of rent!
It is precisely because of Zhu Yuanzhang's regulations that it also laid hidden dangers for future generations!
You must know that the amount of land in Huangzhuang and Wangzhuang is not constant, but is increasing with the development of the Ming Dynasty!
明朝皇室在1464年到1514年的50年间就建造了36处皇庄,土地面积达到了3.7万顷。
Although the feudal kings owned a large amount of farmland, they were not satisfied. They will also continue to seize farmland and annex land, causing more and more farmers to be displaced.
By the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the land of a vassal king could reach thousands or even tens of thousands of hectares.
This is the disadvantage of an imperfect land policy system!
Perhaps even Zhu Yuanzhang himself did not expect that the land annexation he wanted to curb would eventually be carried forward in the hands of the descendants of his old Zhu family!
Zhu Yue naturally knows the shortcomings of these systems, so as long as he can take office in the future, he will definitely change everything!
However, now he wants to use the hundreds of hectares of land in his hands to first cultivate the seeds of various crops as much as possible, and then find a way to promote planting on a large scale in the fiefdom!
"Your Highness, the yield of these potatoes is actually as high as thirty stones per mu!"
"This is incredible!"
After hearing the report from the tenant farmer that this acre of potato land actually yielded nearly dan of potatoes, even though Ms. Cao was mentally prepared, she was immediately shocked!
"This potato is a high-yielding crop, so it's not unusual to have such a high yield!"
When Zhu Yue heard this, he smiled naturally.
Potatoes, a crop, were only introduced to the Central Plains in the th century!
However, potatoes were not a high-yielding crop in the th century because there were no biologists at that time!
One stone weighs about 120 kilograms, and thirty stones is equivalent to more than three thousand kilograms!
In modern society, it is normal for potato yields to reach about 3000-5000 kilograms per mu, and these potato seedlings brought by Zhu Quere are still the best varieties cultivated and researched by later generations of biologists!
It's a pity that there was no such thing as chemical fertilizer in the Ming Dynasty, otherwise the yield per mu of potatoes would have been to % higher!
"Then what are you going to do with these potatoes, Your Highness?"
Ms. Cao asked curiously.
Although she knew from Zhu Li's mouth that potatoes were a high-yielding crop and could be eaten as a staple food, she had never eaten them before, and she didn't know how they tasted!
"Continue to plant all these potatoes. In less than a year, after several seasons of bumper harvests, the potato output will increase several times, and then planting will begin on a large scale in the fiefdom!"
Zhu Li gave instructions directly.
If you want to plant a large area, the few thousand kilograms of potatoes you just harvested are not enough. Even if you want to eat Zhu Querk, you can only keep a few hundred kilograms for yourself at most, and you must plant the rest. OK!
"I understand!"
Only then did Mrs. Cao understand Zhu Li's good intentions and quickly nodded in agreement.
"You are carrying your body now, so don't let yourself be too tired. If you can leave it to the people below, try to leave it to the people below. Don't tire yourself out!"
Zhu Yue was still very reassured about Cao's ability, but he didn't want Cao to affect his body and the fetus in his belly because of these things!
