Chapter 562 Chapter 562: Making salt, mulberry silkworms, and growing grain (Part 2) [Ask for monthly votes]
Shen Tang said: "Humans, as long as they are not immortals who eat wind and drink dew after fasting, even if they are powerful enough to be in the twenties, Even the brave warriors of Chehou cannot cut off grains. Food is the most important thing for the people, so why is farming a dishonorable job?"
Ning Yan tried to explain.
"Lord, it has nothing to do with dignity, but..."
Shen Tang knew that Ning Yan's understanding was still based on the inherent impression, and intercepted her words with a smile: "Tunan, don't I'm anxious because I didn't make it clear. Yanling farming is different from the farming you know. One person can even supply an army of thousands of people."
The power of one person...
Supply an army of thousands? ? ?
Ning Yan’s first reaction when she heard this was that it felt absurd, but she was a smart person after all. Her second reaction was that Shen Tang led his lone army deep into the hinterland of Shiwu for more than a month and caused trouble. The heroic deeds of being able to escape unscathed despite being turned upside down.
Outsiders only think that Shen Tang is very courageous. He ran to the rear without getting lost and achieved great results without thinking about the logistics and food problems. Even if she thought about it, she would probably guess that she was using the enemy's food to solve her own crisis.
As for why she was able to maneuver so well that she accurately found the enemy's lair and raided their granaries in time to ensure constant food supply...
This is unknown.
Without knowing the truth, it is most logical to feed the enemy, but Shen Tang’s words gave Ning Yan another idea -
There is someone in the army who can speak spiritually. grain.
Be completely self-sufficient!
Without the constraints of food and grass supply, this rapid march of thousands of people no longer has worries, and its mobility is completely maximized.
No wonder the enemy didn't even catch their shadows.
The truth about co-authoring is here!
For a moment, her heart beat like a drum.
The hands in the sleeves trembled slightly with excitement.
What does it take to march and fight?
The ability of the commanders of both sides to command the overall situation, the resourcefulness of the military advisors, the combat power of the military formation, the size of the troops and horses, or the power of the ordnance?
They are all factors that determine the outcome of the war, but in the final analysis, it is still a matter of competition between the two forces to see whose supply line of grain, grass, and baggage is the most stable and secure. Once a party is out of food supply and is besieged by the enemy, there will be no suspense about victory or defeat.
This shows its importance.
For a while, Ning Yan was thinking about logistics.
Shen Tang coughed slightly and brought her thoughts back: "The war will eventually end, and training them is not to train them to follow the army and serve as granaries... But from birth to death, they are inseparable for life. Food. If one person can work for a year with the help of words and spirits, and after paying the taxes on the harvest, there will be enough food left to feed the family every year, and they will no longer have to depend on the weather..."
"There will no longer be the tragic situation of dying of hunger and lying on a bare ground for thousands of miles." She was more serious than ever before, "This is what I want."
Ning Yan was startled when she heard this.
This is probably the difference between Shen Tang and others.
If Yan Ling is beneficial to farming, almost everyone's first reaction is that with this weapon, there is no risk in fighting, but what Shen Tang thinks about is how many people will no longer have to starve to death. War kills people, and she wants more people to live because of it.
Ning Yan managed to breathe steadily.
"My lord is kind."
Newcomer Liao Jia was even more awe-struck.
Not for anything else, just because Shen Tang has this heart.
The already high favorability level has increased again.
I couldn’t help but secretly say in my heart: [What kind of luck did Qi Yuanliang have to find such a little saint...]
Yes, this is the criterion for choosing a master for praying for good.
Liao Jia once laughed at his naivety.
You are full of evil, but you still want to find a living saint to be your lord's assistant? Aren't you afraid that the two of them may have different ideas and part ways?
Isn’t this self-abuse?
Liao Jiagang heard about Shen Tang's good reputation. He didn't believe it at first, then slowly began to question it, and finally he was doubtful. It wasn't until Shen Tang's words that he really dispelled his doubts. His unsuspecting psychological activities were naturally heard by Gu Chi.
Gu Chi: "..."
My lord is really "harmful".
After Ning Yan sat down, Xun Zhen spoke: "My lord, there is no other such literati except you and Ling De. How to practice still needs to be explored. Zhen suggested that you might as well search for Tianshi, A book about spiritual integrity, farming, and farm equipment. "
Although the same spiritual saying has different effects due to different personal understandings, it is definitely right to learn the spiritual spirit in a targeted manner.
You can also do a test at the same time.
What does Shen Tang and Lin Fengyan's ability to transform spiritual objects have to do with it? Because of their gender, or because of their way of being princes/the way of scribes. Shen Tang's way of being a prince is originally related to farming, and it is reasonable to talk about spiritual transformation. The core of Lin Feng's "Essential Techniques for Elevating the People" is farming, and "Essential Techniques for Elevating the People" is a masterpiece on agriculture. It is logical to have this effect.
Besides -
Where are the others?
Would it be possible to achieve the same effect by learning these words and spirits related to farming and practicing enlightenment in this area?
These are still unknown.
Shen Tang: "Well, this matter needs to be arranged."
Last night's dream gave her the confidence.
This will definitely happen!
Because of the farmer!
Because of the Farmhouse Academy!
Even more because of the contention of a hundred schools of thought!
However, cultivation and development also take time, and those small fry that have barely reached enlightenment are obviously not ready for use yet. At present, Shen Tang and Lin Feng can only be asked to work overtime to ensure smooth initial operation of the plan. If silkworm weaving can form a characteristic industry, Longwu County will have an additional income. The abacus beads in Shen Tang's heart were crackling.
After that, everyone discussed how to improve the plan and arrange manpower to start several projects at the same time.
Liao Jia thought it was nothing of his own fault.
After all, he is still a newcomer.
The inspection lasted for three to five months while getting familiar with the environment.
Who knows——
"Shaomei is familiar with Chiyan?"
Liao Jia humbly said: "I know a little bit about it."
Shen Tang heard this He nodded and raised his hand to allocate a group of manpower to him to find and level the wasteland and plan to build salt fields. With the help of brave warriors, the project will be completed quickly.
After making preliminary preparations, try to attract sea water.
If it fails, Yantian will push forward the farmland.
Liao Jia was speechless for a moment: "..."
Is this too fast?
Shen Tang didn't think so. She even felt that there were too few people and there wasn't enough. After the morning meeting, he hurriedly took people to inspect the abandoned salt wells, and also brought along the government officials who had been in charge of the salt wells. It would be best if the abandoned salt well can be put into use. If it cannot be put into use, then another one will be dug. The digging of salt wells is a difficult problem for the current level of science and technology, and it is also the main reason why the cost of well salt remains high.
But——
The brave warrior is really easy to use.
For a time, Shen Tang didn’t understand why the world only wanted to let Wu Daren Warriors, such useful and versatile tools, fight with them?
What a waste of natural resources, what a waste of natural resources!
"Wen Shi, stay here."
The morning meeting dispersed, and Chu Yao called Xu Quan with a smile.
"The meritor has any instructions?"
Chu Yao said: "We have something to discuss."
Who can I buy silkworm seeds from?
Xu Jie.
Who can buy mulberry leaf material from?
Xu Jie.
Who can I buy a large amount of coarse salt from?
It’s still Xu Jie.
Although he is not in the Longwu official office, his shadow of Xu Wenzhu is everywhere, and his cousin Xu Quan is the best mouthpiece!
Xu Quan, who originally wanted to find Zhao Wei, had to change his mind.
"Okay."
Zhao Wei, who was holding his gun and waiting, saw Qi Shan and Lio Jia on duty together from a distance. It's not that Qi Shan wants to get close to this person, it's just because the master asked him to bring a new group of people to familiarize themselves with the environment. For example, take Liao Jia to the military camp to mobilize manpower.
Who told Liao Jia that he didn’t even know where to open the gate of the military camp? Others were not familiar with Liao Jia, so Qishan, who recommended Liao Jia, naturally became the most suitable candidate.
Zhao Wei: "Sir, are you on duty so early?"
Liao Jia got on the carriage assigned by the government office.
“No, we still have to go to the military camp.”
Zhao Wei’s eyes lit up: “Then can I go?”
She is Liao Jia’s nominal bodyguard. .
Lio Jia looked at Qi Shan and Qi Shan nodded.
“Yes.”
Zhao Wei is gone, so he can take the person into his pocket, right? Oh, I just hope that Dayi will see his daughter in front of the battle one day and not lose his composure.
The government station is stationed outside the city.
From a distance, you can see flags waving in the wind.
Zhao Wei often followed his father into the military camp to play, but no matter how much Zhao Feng doted on his daughter, he would not let her run around. You are being watched all the time, and the places you can go are extremely limited. This time I went to an unfamiliar military camp, and I was full of expectations.
The military camp flags, in addition to Shen Tang’s [Shen], are the surnames of the commanders of each camp, which can be distinguished at a glance.
[White]
Zhao Wei murmured: "This surname is rare."
After thinking about it for a while, I didn't expect any famous martial artist to have the surname Bai. Engraved with the official seal, the light is green all the way.
"Go and see the general of this camp first."
Coincidentally, the general is in the camp.
Bai Su is wearing armor, and his front feet have just come back.
"Why is the chief secretary here? But does the lord have an order?" Bai Su was on duty at the military camp today and did not attend the morning meeting.
Qi Shan asked Lio Jia to bring the transfer order signed by Shen Tang and handed it over, saying: "His surname is Liao, Lio Jia, Liao Shaomei. The lord asked him to transfer one hundred people, at least twenty low-ranking people. Sir. Is it convenient for Captain Bai to go to the wasteland to open up salt fields?”
Bai Su confirmed that the order was correct.
Cai Dao: "It's natural and convenient."
Breaking the stereotype that women can't be literary and courageous, Liu Jia recognized the courageous warrior in front of him at a glance, who was the same height as himself. , is a real woman. However, Zhao Wei didn't recognize it and was attracted by Bai Suying's handsome face.
She has seen too many rough and arrogant warriors.
A slightly more delicate figure, also like Xu Quan.
I have never seen a "male" like Bai Su, who is handsome, elegant and yet powerful, and her aesthetic appeal is totally hers!
Bai Su put away the order: "Follow me."
Although her battalion expanded to three thousand, in broad daylight, apart from basic defense, there were less than five people left. If you succeed, the rest will either go to practice or go to work. In such a large martial arts training ground, there were only five to six hundred people practicing hard at stabbing.
Bai Su summoned his deputy who was leading the training.
Coincidentally, he is an acquaintance.
"How could it be you?"
Isn't this the young man named Lu?
Bai Su noticed Zhao Wei, glanced at her face, glanced at the spear she was carrying, and finally landed on Zhao Wei's hands exposed outside the sleeves. The palms of her fingers were covered with thick calluses left by martial arts practice. . It seems that she is also a practitioner and a girl.
She asked: "Zhi Zong, do you know each other?"
"I know the criminal who was arrested two days ago."
\(￣︶￣*\))
Tomorrow I’m going to go check it out again. They keep saying that my D2 polymer is high, and I don’t know if I can find out the reason...
