Chapter 836: The Knowledge of Farming
"Please." Zhao Ji made a gesture of invitation.
Zhao Ji is not only a member of the clan, but his status is no lower than Zhao Xie, and even higher than Zhao Wangxie.
Because Zhao Ji is the son of the former King of Zhao, Zhao Xie is not.
However, Zhao Ji saw the corruption and incompetence of the Zhao State at that time. The officials and nobles only wanted to enjoy themselves and did not care about the suffering of the people or whether the country would perish.
So he was frustrated and left the center of power of Zhao early and became a small county magistrate in Handan City. The purpose was to do something for the people. I did something for the people of Zhao.
It is precisely because of this that after Ying Zheng destroyed the Six Kingdoms, Zhao Jineng still became the county magistrate of Handan City.
It's just that the anti-Qin forces were very disappointed with this. They even wanted to kill Zhao Ji, but they were stopped.
The people who stopped him were the Zhao family and some nobles who knew that Zhao Ji had a good nature.
Even the Zhao clan originally wanted Zhao Ji to become the King of Zhao, so that he could use his status as county magistrate to develop anti-Qin forces in Handan City.
But Zhao Ji had already seen through the nature of those people, and at the same time he didn't want to be controlled by others, so he refused.
But Zhao Ji also promised everyone that he would give everyone a certain amount of help, which resulted in Zhao Ji's life being saved, and Zhao Ji had the largest anti-Qin force.
Zhao Xie walked up to the city tower, bowed to Qin An and saluted: "Sheng Dou, a humble citizen, meets the emperor's master."
Qin An said: "There is no need to be polite. There are all the people on this city tower and below the city. There are no ordinary people here, no masters of the Qin Emperor, and no nobles.
We are just pioneers in strengthening China and allowing Chinese people to live a better life.
As a pioneer, you must be mentally prepared to endure hardships and endure hardships, and even be prepared to not be understood by others and endure humiliation.
The reason why I asked you to go up to the tower is because you asked a question. And this issue concerns the fate of all farmers in the world.
Therefore, I want you to ask everyone's question again, so that all the people in the world know your question, and then I will answer your question. "
"Okay." Zhao Xie said, and then he stretched out a hand and wanted the microphone in Qin An's hand.
Everyone just saw it. Zhao Ji first spoke to everyone with a microphone. His voice was very loud and everyone could hear clearly.
Immediately afterwards, Qin An took the microphone and started talking, and his voice was equally loud.
Therefore, Zhao Xie guessed that the reason for the loud sound was the microphone in Qin An's hand.
Seeing this, Qin An smiled and said, "Here, I've turned on the switch, just say it."
"Thank you, Master." Zhao Xie took the microphone and said, "Thank you, Master, for giving me the opportunity to ask questions."
Qin An answered with a slight smile.
Zhao Xie said again: "The emperor just said that farming is a science, but I think farming is not a matter for any farmer.
The farm family has been established for many years, but now it is almost disappearing because the people in the farm family are about to become farmers.
Now the Imperial Master says that this is a science, so I would like to ask, if you learn how to farm, can you feed everyone in the world? "
"Yes." Qin An said with certainty.
Zhao Xie saw Qin An's answer so quickly and immediately said, "Master Emperor, I'm afraid you didn't understand my question."
"Whether I understand it or not, I can tell you very clearly, yes." Qin An said, "There is no end to learning. If you can master the knowledge of farming to the same level as two thousand years later.
The cultivated land in China can feed 1.5 billion people. As long as you have money, you can still eat meat.
The money I am talking about is ordinary. An ordinary worker, just like a farmer, can eat meat every meal.
Meat, to you, is a luxury item, to us, it is an ordinary item. What is really expensive are those animals that are about to become extinct, as well as the food that grows on the ground but in very small quantities, and the food that swims in the sea.
In addition, every place
The prices of grains, fruits, vegetables, etc. vary from region to region. The south is more expensive and the quantity is small, while the north is cheap and the quantity is large.
These are all related to the geographical location and rich products.
Zhao Di is a member of the north. It is close to the Xiongnu grasslands and can raise cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and other poultry. Because of its large land, it can grow a lot of vegetables, especially Yan Di, which is closer to the three northeastern provinces and has a vast population. It is sparse and a lot of land can be used to grow vegetables and grains. "
"Wait." Zhao Xie immediately asked Qin An to stop.
Gan Luo, Zhang Liang and others all frowned slightly, daring to ask Mr. to stop. This man is very courageous.
Qin An shrugged and said, "If you have any questions, just ask."
"Emperor Master." Zhao Xie said in a cold voice, "Everyone knows that the north is cold and we can raise cattle and sheep, but we can't farm at all.
Even if you want to deceive everyone, you have to come up with a better excuse. Farming in the winter is such a ridiculous thing. "
The people under the city started talking one after another, thinking that what Qin An said was a lie.
Qin An shook his head and said, "This is the knowledge of farming. Just because you don't know something and thinks it's impossible doesn't mean that others can't do it.
Planting vegetables in winter is the crystallization of human wisdom. In the future, many farmers will plant them. We call them greenhouse vegetables, or the greenhouse planting method.
The method is very simple, just give the vegetables you grow enough sunlight and temperature.
As for why people in the future would think of this, it's because they did research on the farm.
First, they will wonder why some trees have lush branches and leaves when they grow up, and some do not. There are also big differences in grains and vegetable leaves.
So someone discovered that this is because of sunlight. Many trees, vegetables, fruits, and grains need sunlight, and some are afraid of sunlight.
In later generations, farmers studied almost all animals and plants in the world, including fruits and vegetables, and classified them into sun-loving ones and yin-loving ones.
Sunlight is temperature. Solving the temperature problem is simple. Just put a heater in the greenhouse.
Next is watering and fertilizing. You should know that food needs to be watered and fertilized so that it can grow better.
And after these studies or your years of research, I am afraid you have a good understanding of how much water and fertilizer some grains or fruits and vegetables require.
I don’t need to say this, so the temperature problem is solved in winter, and many fruits and vegetables can be eaten in winter.
Do you still have any questions? "
"Is it possible to eat fruits and vegetables in winter?" Zhao Xie couldn't help but ask again.
"Why is it impossible?" Qin An asked back, "Everyone who has been to Xianyang City should know it. I don't believe that none of you are in Xianyang City."
Zhao Ji said: "There are many reports to the Imperial Master. These things have been spread in Handan City, but no one believes them."
