The Reborn Lady is Farming

Chapter 556: Wei Zhi

   Mu Yangling insisted on planting sweet potatoes because Chen Ming bought a lot of noodles during the recent Chinese New Year, and Mu Yangling remembered sweet potato flour.

  Sweet potatoes are indeed not easy to preserve, but if they are made into sweet potato flour, they can be kept for a long time after drying.

  Even if you can’t eat this with meals, using it alternately with whole grains will greatly alleviate the food shortage.

Only then did Mu Yangling remember that in the past, he had been working on how to grow food and how to increase the output of food, but he forgot to develop the way to eat food, such as corn, not only can be ground into porridge, but also into corn flour Made into cornmeal, used to make corn buns and pancakes.

  Although she doesn't know whether to add other flours or the like, with so many people in the world, can't others figure it out?

   Mu Yangling seems to have opened the door to a new world in front of her eyes, but unfortunately she is not a standard foodie, otherwise she might know more ways to eat.

  Because Mu Yangling insisted on planting sweet potatoes, the village chief and Lizheng had to go out to buy sweet potatoes. Since there is still a period of time before planting, they can first raise seedlings at home.

  Sweet potato was passed down from the Fuzhou area. It is said to be a product from overseas. Although it is only twenty years old, it has already spread to the Jiangnan area.

  Most of them are planted in vegetable gardens. People can eat the young shoots on the vines, and the rest can be cut back to feed pigs and chickens. Because they grow fast, they have always been the favorite of poultry people.

As for sweet potatoes, everyone also likes to eat them. They eat both raw and cooked ones. For a period of time, people still eat this thing as food, because it is much more delicious than bran, and it is easy to support, so there is no need to open up wasteland and take vines. Pull the soil directly behind the house and plant it, it will live in a few days, and the sweet potatoes will not need to pay taxes and rent.

   So for two years, everyone liked to grow this thing, and then eat it every day, eat it every day, although I like to fart, but everyone doesn't mind it very much.

   But it didn't take long for everyone to feel that there was a fire in their stomachs, and they felt uncomfortable like heartburn. They didn't understand that it was caused by too much stomach acid, but they just thought that they might be seriously ill and die.

   At this time, everyone realized that eating too many sweet potatoes is not good.

   After a year, everyone didn’t even want to touch sweet potatoes, for fear of being poisonous, so some people went to the doctor to confirm that it was not poisonous before they started planting them again, but they didn’t dare to eat more.

   So everyone was surprised that the village chief had to buy so many sweet potatoes and vines for seed.

   With so many sweet potatoes, the vines won’t work in vain, right?

But thinking that they originally rented those wastelands just to repay interest, it doesn't matter anymore, sweet potatoes are good, that thing has less life, and you don't need to be meticulous. are used less.

  Li Jinghua didn't know anything about farming, so he couldn't understand Mu Yangling's excitement, "For people like us, we just leave the farming to the servants, why do we need to do it ourselves?"

Mu Yangling smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, my ideal is that there will be no famine in the famine years. This cannot be achieved by simply reclaiming wasteland and farming. The first thing to do is to increase production. It’s not necessarily that they can fill their stomachs. It’s just that many people think like my sister-in-law, and leave the farming to the servants and the tenant farmers, and don’t think about going further, so the development of agriculture is so slow.”

  Li Jinghua was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "For thousands of years, even the saints have been unable to do things, how can we do it with only a few decades of people?"

"Whether I can do it or not, I always work hard, and I won't regret it in the future. Besides, I'm still young, and I still have fifty or sixty years. Even if I take a small step forward in ten years, fifty or sixty years. Then you can take a big step forward.”

Li Jinghua couldn't help but burst into laughter. She nodded at Mu Yangling's forehead and said, "I didn't expect you to have such a great ambition. You even thought of living to seventy or eighty years old." Mu Yangling was ten years old this year. Seven years old, fifty or sixty years is not nearly eighty?

   "Sister-in-law, you're focusing on the wrong thing," Mu Yangling stared, "Weizhi is my ambition in agriculture, right? It's only 70 or 80 years old, what's so hard about it?"

Although the average life expectancy in this world is very short, they are rich and in some respects pay more attention to health preservation than modern times. Although the medical level is very low, she does not think it is difficult for her to live to the age of 80. Instead, it is her goal in agriculture. , I don't know if it can be achieved in my lifetime.

Li Jinghua completely took Mu Yangling's agricultural ambitions as a child's dream, because for hundreds of years, although the yield per mu of grain has also increased slowly, and the farming technology has also been slowly improved, it is necessary to achieve It is completely impossible that there will be no famine in the famine years.

  When there is no famine in a famine year, is that still called a famine year?

Even in a prosperous world, everyone can't keep the people from starving. Although Li Jinghua is a young lady and doesn't understand farming, she has read the account books of her family farm and knows how much yield per mu. With that kind of yield, unless The court does not collect taxes, and it can ensure that every household has enough fields. Otherwise, it will be a prosperous world, and there will still be many people who suffer from hunger.

But Li Jinghua did not expect that in the future, Mu Yangling would go further and further on this road, and let future generations continue to follow her path. In less than a hundred years, she will achieve her dream of no famine in the famine years. .

   At night, Mu Yangling bowed her head and wrote her agricultural plan before the case. The more she wrote, the more emotional she became. There has never been a time when Mu Yangling was so eager for Qi Xiuyuan to succeed in his rebellion.

   Qi Xiuyuan became the emperor, and she was considered a member of the royal family, so it would be much easier to do anything at that time.

After writing the agricultural plan, Mu Yangling took out the map again. At first, he filled the map with the information obtained by the guard, and then circled several places. When this area is almost cleared, they should be able to return to Lin'an City.

   At this moment, Qi Haoran kicked Feibai out with a red-eyed kick, and shouted, "Prepare a horse for you!"

Feibai spat out a mouthful of blood, and crawled forward to hug Qi Haoran's leg, begging: "Master, master, you can't go, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the entire army are watching you, if you leave, The group of dragons is headless, uncle, uncle is still pointing at you and attacking him left and right."

  Qi Haoran looked down at him coldly, his eyes almost like knives, he gritted his teeth and said, "Release, Lord tells you to release."

   "Master, let Zhanyu lead someone to rescue Fourth Grandma and the others..."

   Before he could say a word, Qi Haoran kicked Feibai out again. This time, there was a crack in Feibai's chest, and his ribs were broken.

   He resisted the pain and got up to look over, only to see Zhanyu standing behind Qi Haoran and knocking him unconscious.

Fei Bai breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the fourth master did not take precautions to get Zhan Yu to succeed. He did not dare to relax, and hurriedly said: "Quickly bring the little general back to the tent, and have someone to guard it strictly, Zhan Yu, you Immediately lead someone to rescue the fourth grandma, hurry up!"
