Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1508 Talented people

  Dense Planting…

  Fang Jifan frowned at Zhu Houzhao and Zhang Xin's ecstasy. Hearing about Mi Zhi, he felt unreliable.

  This dense planting, even for future generations, is a pit. The most important reason is the need to apply a lot of fertilizers, causing water pollution. In addition, other problems are too numerous to enumerate.

   It can be seen that Zhu Houzhao and Zhang Xin were very excited, but Fang Jifan was suspicious.

  Zhu Houzhao was so happy that he didn't notice the strange look in Fang Jifan's eyes, so he just pulled Fang Jifan away.

  Fang Jifan also wanted to go and have a look, so he followed.

  The experimental field was full of paddy fields, unable to pass the car, so had to walk. Zhu Houzhao walked like flying, Zhang Xin walked extremely steadily, only Fang Jifan was panting all the way on the muddy ridge.

   Finally arrived at the place, Fang Jifan looked around, blinked, a little dazed.

  This...is called dense planting?

   Suddenly, he remembered.

  The so-called dense planting concept of the ancients is completely different from that of later generations.

  The ancients had limited land fertility, and rice seeds were also quite defective, so they were planted very sparsely.

  Now, the so-called dense planting has just become a little denser from the original sparseness, barely reaching the level of later generations.

  At this time, the seedlings have grown out one by one, and they are still blue at this time. Although young rice spikes have grown, the rice is not yet mature.

  Looking around, there are densely packed ears of rice.

   In Fang Jifan's view, this is nothing more than normal.

  But Zhang Xin and Zhu Houzhao were very excited.

  Zhu Houzhao said with great joy: "Old Fang, take a look... Take a look... It's really going to happen."

  Fang Jifan was indifferent, while Zhu Houzhao pointed to the experimental field next door and said, "Look at the others. I'm afraid that the millet produced at that time will not be half as much as here. Come, come, and fetch the data from this experimental field."

  Tuntian school lieutenant had been stationed here a long time ago. Hearing the prince's order, he hurriedly fetched the notebook.

  In this book, it clearly records the amount of nitrogen fertilizer applied, whether there are any insects in the process, what kind of grain is used, and the amount of irrigation water.

Zhu Houzhao looked at it carefully, and said excitedly: "If it can be successful, the yield per mu... must not be low. Most of the rice fields now only produce more than 300 catties per mu. How many catties can this mu of land produce?" ?”

Thousands of acres of land have been opened up, all of which are used for experiments. The results of most of the experimental fields are not ideal. There are only a few acres, which are very promising. Once successful, then...these recorded data are the most precious Based on experience, you only need to follow this method to promote in the future.

   Not only that, this also confirms the effect of nitrogen fertilizer.

  In the research institute, there are hundreds of fertilizers produced, and most of them are failures.

  Only the current ratio has the most astonishing effect.

  Zhang Xin's eyes shine.

  In fact, the news has spread in Tuntian Weihe Research Institute.

  Many school lieutenants and students have come to observe the seedlings in batches.

   Many students even began to obtain the soil and water quality in the rice fields, and wanted to take them back for research.

   After all, this may be a huge advance in the history of rice paddy cultivation.

   The results of this experiment will generate a large number of papers on agronomy.

  Research on nitrogen fertilizer.

  Research on soil quality.

  Research on pest infestation.

   Research on seeds.

  The accumulated data will be cited on a large scale. In the coming year, there may be new developments on the basis of this research and data.

  Fang Jifan said calmly: "Now there is no horoscope yet. Don't be too happy, His Royal Highness. We need to wait until the rice is ripe."

   These words poured cold water on Zhu Houzhao and Zhang Xin.

  Yes, before receiving the goods, who knows if the young ears will be mature.

   Maybe because of the fertilizer or the seeds, it doesn't grow anymore.

Zhang Xin settled down, took a deep breath, and bowed to Fang Jifan: "What Qi Guogong taught is, but right now, this acre of experimental land is most likely to achieve the results we want, so this place needs to be well protected. For the time being, no one can go to the field to study, except for the captain who is taking care of it, no one is allowed to come and go in the vicinity."

   These words... are clearly aimed at Zhu Houzhao.

  He is afraid, His Royal Highness is too reckless, don't let him ruin this rice field.

  Fang Jifan nodded and nodded: "That's the truth, don't talk too much now, from today onwards, you are here to watch."

  Fang Jifan spoke in a very calm mood.

  Before he achieves great success, he doesn't want to be overly optimistic and pretend to be struck by lightning.

  Here in Xishan, many people are very excited.

  For this experimental field, countless money and countless manpower were spent, not to mention the valuable experience of countless field school lieutenants and agricultural students over the years.

   And the answer is about to be revealed.

  Zhang Xin desperately held back his excitement.

  He knows very well what it means to be successful.

  Although he couldn't believe it, in fact...even if he failed, he could still accept it.

  After all... For so many years, he has been engaged in agronomy and has brought out countless disciples and captains, but he is also very clear that failure is commonplace, and the most important thing is to sum up the lessons of failure and absorb the nutrition of success.

  Zhu Houzhao didn't care about other things anymore, he excitedly asked people to take some soil and water samples, and happily ran to the research institute.

  ...

   Honglu Temple.

  During this period of time, in the place where the foreign envoys lived, there was an endless stream of scholars, but they came to pay their respects every now and then.

   So much so that here, there are always a lot of people.

  Honglu Temple's head receptionist, Liu Shang, is used to this.

  However, the crowd was crowded, which also brought enormous pressure to Honglu Temple.

  The courtyard where the Ottoman envoys were located sent away a group of scholars, and then Liu Shang went here.

  Suleiman was here, looking very excited.

  He has been here for three months.

  Three months gave him a deep understanding of Han culture.

  Thus, when he came, he had someone lay out a woolen blanket, and all the corresponding attire was mainly Ottoman.

But now, he is wearing a Confucian fir of the Han family, and his slightly curly hair is also growing up. He is still thin and thin. At this moment, there is a landscape painting hanging in his hall, which has a profound artistic conception. Completely different from Ottoman and Franji's paintings, the large blank space gave Suleiman a strong room for imagination.

   From time to time, he would look up at the painting, look at the landscape with ink, and feel the artistic conception in the blank space, and he would be fascinated.

  On the copybooks, there are four books and five classics.

  The works of the sage are indeed very reasonable.

  Unified...

  Salt iron…

  There is also...cars on the same track, books on the same text...

  When he read this, his body couldn't help shaking, and his face turned red with excitement.

  Ottoman was originally just a tribe, and then annexed countless tribes, conquered countless countries, and finally...became an empire spanning three continents.

  In addition to the great monarch, there are many powerful locals. They may be governors, known as Kasha, and they almost control the financial and military power.

   Isn’t this another form of enfeoffment?

  So many families allegiance to the monarch when the monarch is strong, but once the monarch is weak, they will rebel and even make unreasonable demands on the monarch.

  Many tribes, although they were vassals, refused to honor their promises to the monarch when the empire was at a critical moment, and held their own troops.

   It is necessary to use etiquette and law to restrain courtiers, let them know benevolence, justice and propriety, and use the government of salt and iron to control the financial power of the empire. At the same time...the same language needs to be promoted so that every tribe in the empire can say the same thing...

  If this is the case...the greatest country in the world can be created and passed down from generation to generation.

  Just now, he discussed the issue of enlightenment with many Confucians.

  Only by enlightenment can the people only know the ruler, the ruler, the minister, the father, the son...

   Liu Shang came in and saluted Suleiman.

Suleiman said at this time: "What a happy prince, he has countless talented people, but he can't accept their advice, and stay away from them... This is called... kissing a villain, but staying away from a gentleman... "

  Suleiman sighed, a little envious and a little mocking.

   Liu Shang couldn't help asking: "What?"

   Suleiman came back to his senses. Before that, he was just muttering to himself.

   But even if he was muttering to himself, he still spoke Chinese.

  In his opinion, if he wants to learn Chinese, he must be thorough. Only by mastering it proficiently can he appreciate the essence of the Four Books and Five Classics.

   Those great Confucians and scholars are all respectable scholars.

  They seem to be very proficient in any problem.

  Every word they say carries profound philosophy.

   Only by mastering this language can we understand their words and understand the original meaning of these profound truths.

  Suleiman laughed, looked at Liu Shang, and said in Chinese: "Master Liu, today, do you want to discuss with me again? What do you want to discuss?"

  Liu Shang didn't show much expression, and even continued to be solemn, shaking his head slightly and said: "No, I was ordered by the Ministry of Rites to urge His Royal Highness to submit the credentials as soon as possible."

   "Oh." Suleiman said disapprovingly: "This is not the most important thing. I am now floating in the sea of ​​knowledge, like a fat fish."

  He used fat to describe it.

   Liu Shang suddenly subconsciously felt that the corners of his mouth were moist and hungry.

   Almost lost his mind, but Liu Shang did not forget the purpose of his visit this time, so he said again: "This is a very important matter, the prince must not neglect it."

  Suleiman frowned: "Is this also a ceremony?"

"yes."

Suleiman said: "Since this is the case, it has to be this way. Can I invite your scholars to settle in Ottoman in the letter of credence? Please don't get me wrong, I am full of goodwill towards Daming. These scholars, in my opinion, are all They are treasures, and a room full of gold cannot match their value."

  ...

  Recommend a book called "Nine Dragons Swallowing Pearls". You see, the name is so aggressive and pretty.
