Qin asked

The question of how to increase food production runs through the entire human civilization, especially the Chinese nation, which has explored this question to the extreme.

According to the experience of later generations, it is the most effective method to directly take out species such as miscellaneous rice or sweet potato and corn. However, Mo Dou's golden finger is only Baidu, not Taobao, so other conditions are improved to increase production.

The first is to increase the area of ​​arable land. Although large tracts of land are owned by owners, very few are actually reclaimed. Most of them are still in the form of wasteland, waiting for the sowing of people's sweat. The reason is nothing more than backward production relations and low efficiency of production tools. , and underpopulation.

The above three are interrelated. As long as one is improved, the other two can be promoted. The previous Quyuan plow and vertical well waterwheel improved production tools. With these two, people can have more Energy to plant more fields.

The tools for plowing and watering are available, but the main tools for sowing and harvesting are left.

Harvesting tools are easy to get. In ancient times, there was already a prototype of a sickle. The Mo Dou only needs to follow the modern pattern and make proportional improvements according to the figure of the ancients... As for the sowing, Mo Dou still remembers that there was a columbine in the Han Dynasty. For the car, the pictures on Baidu are also very clear. Ink Dou traced the drawings on paper, and then plunged into the research of chemical fertilizers-in addition to increasing the cultivated area, increasing the grain yield per mu is also an extremely effective method.

At this time, Mo Dou was very grateful for Atu's previous contribution. With some previous data, he could at least forge a decent experiment process.

Yes, that’s right, Mo Dou wanted to forge an experimental process instead of following Ah Tu’s experiment, because he already knew the ratio of manure and the fermentation technology... But Mo Dou just didn’t want to take it out directly, except that he didn’t want to be too In addition to being too conspicuous and attracting attention, there is another point that he wants to leave experimental data for future generations and guide future generations with a spirit of discovery. The lack of scientific research spirit is the pain of all future generations. Mo Dou wants to take advantage of the early time. The experience leaves behind a scientific inquiry and inventive spirit.

But now time is too late, Qin will rule the world within ten years, need a lot of food to lay the foundation, there is no time to wait for the experimental results from season to season.

According to Atu’s previous results, there were no diseased spots on the leaves of the crops he experimented with, and everything was fine except for a little bit, but they couldn’t live to the end. Later, when they uprooted the plants, they found that their roots were all rotten... …

In fact, this phenomenon is called seedling burning. When the manure is directly buried in the soil as fertilizer, long-term watering will make the manure start to ferment, and then generate a lot of heat, burning the roots of the seedlings alive. The way to deal with it is Ferment the manure ahead of time.

In fact, under the guidance of the ink fountain, Ah Tu has already begun to try this work, but the progress is too slow. After all, fermentation is a technical job, which involves time, place, temperature, water volume and even the shape of fermentation. Ah Tu does not even have time. I haven't finished exploring, let alone other conditions.

And the falsification of experimental data has reached a deadlock here. It is too difficult to create something out of nothing, and Mo Dou is not a graduate of Agriculture and Forestry University, so it is impossible to predict the plant's response to different fertilizers...

Therefore, Mo Dou borrowed the practice of a certain great man in mathematics. He took out a sheet from a large stack of papers, and wrote in a regretful tone: "However, the number of papers is insufficient, and the remaining numbers cannot be listed one by one, so I only Straightforward results..."

Then, from 'fermentation needs more than a month' to 'after the fertilizer is fully decomposed, compost should be compacted to facilitate fertilizer preservation', Mo Dou squeezed all the fermentation conditions onto a small piece of white paper. Man created a feeling that he really didn't have any extra paper to write data on...

Mo Dou simply wanted to give a thumbs up to his witty self!

He also encouraged people to try to reproduce the whole experimental process at the end (reproduce the hair!), it is shameless...

Excited after spending the whole day tidying up the ink fountain, he hurried out to go to Ah Tu's place to ferment a pile of soil to test the water, when he bumped into the umbrella that was about to enter the door.

Mo Dou was hit by the umbrella and took three steps back. He covered his sore nose and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry? What's the hurry with the umbrella?"

At this moment, the umbrella that was usually cautious did not feel the panic of bumping into Mo Dou, his eyes were shining brightly: "Master, I made it, and the glass finally has no bubbles!"

!

This is a great thing. Unlike Mo Dou's opportunism, the umbrella almost contracted all of Qin's glass industry, but it was really developed step by step based on failure and experience.

Not only that, the umbrella is much better than Mo Dou imagined. He took out several pieces of glass with different colors, and said with excitement and even obsession: "I also found that adding different things, or using different According to the pressure, the colored glaze will have different colors, master, this is really amazing."

Mo Dou took the glass in Umbrella's hand, and he was more excited than Umbrella. Compared with the glass made by Umbrella, he was more surprised by Umbrella's interest in chemistry. After thinking about it, Mo Dou decided to ferment a fertilizer first, and then Come back and talk about it with Shan all night long, as for Ying Zheng?Where is cool and where to stay!

"Umbrella, you wait here first, I will come back and discuss this matter with you immediately."

Shan nodded obediently, and waited patiently for Mo Dou's return. He could see that the master was also very excited about this matter.

However, two hours passed, and Mo Dou still hadn't come back. After the night ban, Ying Zheng, who had been busy all day, appeared, and there was still only Shan in the room waiting for Mo Dou to come back.

Ying Zheng glanced around, focused his gaze on Shan, and asked word by word, "Where's Mo Dou?"

Shan shook his head with a pale face: "I don't know, I went out two hours ago, and I haven't come back yet."

Ying Zheng stared at the umbrella. After confirming that the other party was not lying, he suddenly got up and pushed the door out, and ordered in a loud voice: "Search for the widow!"

After one night, Yingzheng did not find the person he was looking for in the end, and even added more than a dozen people to the missing list. Without exception, they were all not from Qin, and most of them were from Zhao.

……

Zhao Guo, Yi'an.

It has been a long time since Jingguandui in the distance, so long that even in the cold winter, their heads began to rot, and the stench of corpses was poured into Zhao Bing's mouth and nose along the northwest wind. It was no longer possible to tell whether it was anger or sadness on their faces. All their expressions were frozen in the bottom of their hearts by the stinky cold wind, waiting for a fire to burn them all.

But there is no fire, even if they are willing to burn, their generals still order to hide in the fortress, and then, they listen to the insults of the enemy country, watch the rot of their compatriots, and wait for the defeat...

"Why don't you go to support?" Zhao Cong glared at Li Mu bitterly, "Didn't it be written in the battle report that Huan Jue went to attack Fei Xia?"

Li Mu raised his head from the map and glanced at Zhao Cong, and explained in an unhurried manner: "The enemy attacked and I rescued him, which is harmful to others, which is a taboo for military strategists."

"You mean to let us watch the Qin army fight? Then let the other party kill a hundred thousand Zhao people!" Zhao Cong stared in disbelief. He was originally kneeling on the mat upright, but now he has already Standing up straight, he shook his lips and shouted with all his might, "General!"

However, Li Mu still didn't make a statement, and Zhao Cong just looked at Li Mu straight, until a gust of wind blew into the tent—with the smell they were familiar with, finally, Zhao Cong couldn't hold on anymore, and his belief was completely blown away by the wind. After being defeated, he covered his face: "If, if the one hundred thousand Zhao troops are still there..."

"Even if it is still there, we can't use the defeated soldiers, and we can't afford the hundreds of thousands of mouths."

As soon as these words came out, the group of generals became furious. Many of them put their hands on their swords, but even so, Li Mu remained calm. He stared at everyone with very calm eyes, as if possessing magical powers. In general, even to soothe these restless hearts, Li Mu's voice still did not fluctuate, and he said, "Would you please give me a little more time?"

No one responded, they were all silent, but this was already a permission in disguise.

Li Mu nodded.Then continue to look down at the map: "Thank you all."

Zhao Cong, who had regained his composure, took the hand to cover his face. Just as he was about to refute, he was stopped by a person on the side. He looked in the direction indicated by the other party——Li Mu's palm was covered with blood, dripping red drop by drop. the whole map.

At this time, Zhao Cong suddenly understood that the hatred in Li Mu's heart was no less than any of them...
