This is also the reason why Chen Xi agreed to the creation of cookies. It really takes time to find the advantageous attributes of wild plants of the same species and merge them into the genes of improved varieties. The problem is that until now, there is no other plant in the world that can use the naked eye. People who see the advantageous attributes of wild species.
In other words, it takes a very capable master to find the same species in the wild, at least at the level of a jujube. As for the others, they can definitely be picked up easily...
Zao Zhi listened with a confused look on his face, but for some reason, Zao Zhi felt that Cookie's theory was very worthy of his worship, even though he didn't understand it at all.
[Another guy who didn’t understand anything at all, but felt that what I said was very reasonable. 】 Cookie looked up to the sky with a lonely face. Along the way, he met several truly talented farmers who came to challenge him, and in the end, they all became his apprentices.
By the way, Cookie had no idea that these people were not here to pick on him. These people were the agricultural masters brought over by hundreds of schools of thought to pick on Cookie in order to avoid being caught by the Confucianists.
However, it was of no use. Cookie defeated those who came to criticize with one hand. Although some of these people had been farming for decades, they were still far away from Cookie in terms of scientific farming.
There is no way, there is no order of precedence, the master is the teacher, and the same is true for farming. In addition, the guys who can bend down to study farming don't like to chatter. Cookie really impressed these people and didn't even go back home. , studied it together with Cookie.
Although this group of people is no different from the cookies that Hua Xiong put in sacks, they are all cheap. When they see the good seeds, they just go up and study them. Although it was early spring at that time, they did not stop studying all the way here.
After being nurtured by Cookie here, Zao Cao went to Sikong Mansion to report to Cao Cao. This is what Zao Cao did every day during this period, and Cao Cao is now sure that Cookie is indeed here to engage in agriculture, not agriculture. Trick him.
After all, Cao Cao highly approved of Zao Cao's research on farming and farming, and now when Zao Cao mentions cookies, he highly praises them!
After sending away Zaozhi who was going to continue studying. Cao Cao walked to his mansion with some regret. He couldn't understand what Liu Bei wanted to do.
"Wen Ruo, what do you think Liu Xuande wants to do?" Cao Cao said with some regret.
"No matter what Liu Xuande wants to do, is there a way to increase our food production that we can abandon?" Xun Yu said with a chuckle. Didn't answer Cao Cao's question at all.
"It is indeed true. In this era, food is more important than anything else." Cao Cao nodded and said, "The biggest problem now is how to promote this method. After all, this is farming, nothing else. The people will be absolutely disgusted if they don't see the results. They will not change their farming methods, as this is related to their livelihood, so they have to be cautious.”
"Then it depends on whether the lord is willing to pay." Xun Yu looked at Cao Cao with calm eyes, without the slightest worry, as if everything was under control.
"Although I can't get high-quality seeds, I can still get a yield of close to five stones per mu. Why wouldn't I be willing to pay for it!" The determination shown by the short-built Cao Cao at this moment made people admire him.
"You can ignore the major aristocratic families. They must have received the exact information, and most of them have already obtained Qu's farming book. They will naturally plant according to the above content step by step." Xun Yu showed a radiance when he saw Cao Cao's determination. , and then said slowly.
"Our taxes come from the common people. Not from the aristocratic families. The aristocratic families' farming has nothing to do with us." Cao Cao said a little coldly. Regarding the aristocratic families, all the powerful people who come to the aristocratic families will have a headache with the aristocratic families.
"Yes, our taxes come from the people. There are about 1.7 million households under our rule. As for the common people in Guizhou, they are short-sighted, and we can lure them with benefits." Xun Yu said with a smile, and the hint was very clear to Cao Cao. The Qiang people can also farm, and it is easiest for them to farm according to the official method.
"How much will it cost?" Cao Cao thought about it and looked at Xun Yu and said.
"The flowers won't cost much. They can only be used to control the people. They can be taken back after the summer harvest." Xun Yu said calmly. "And if you don't grant the money directly, but transfer it to something else, it will cost less. It depends on whether the lord is willing to execute it."
"Execute, why not execute!" Cao Cao never showed the slightest hesitation, "From now on, all the field troops and soldiers will be prepared for mandatory promotion. We don't have so much time to waste. As for Qu's farming book, buy three thousand Then each county will make stone carvings according to this book on the spot and teach all the people!"
A smile appeared on Xun Yu's face. Cao Cao had never disappointed him. There was nothing to hesitate about at this time. Even if it was under military control, the difference in the growth of the food that had been planted for at most one and a half months could be seen.
People have been cultivating fields for hundreds of years. If nothing else, how can they not tell how well the seedlings are growing in the fields? Therefore, after Xun Yu confirmed the authenticity of Qu's farming book, he even prepared it for coercion. We also plan to spread the word!
As for whether some people would die during this process, it was nothing compared to the future situation of having enough food and clothing. Xun Yu was not a guy who didn't know when to give up.
Of course, Xun Yu also knew that after passing this decree, the people would be greatly less motivated to fight after they had enough food and clothing. However, compared to the future situation, Xun Yu didn't mind this. The blue sky above his head had not changed and remained the same. It is the heaven of the Han Dynasty!
This is enough. No matter how many things Liu Bei did, as long as Liu Bei could not show his banner, Xun Yu could turn everything he did into a blessing for the Han Dynasty.
Xun Yu has never been Cao Cao's minister. He has always followed the orders of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. Although the Emperor has never ordered him, as long as the Emperor is still in that position, Xun Yu will never let anyone It’s up to people to plot that position.
[Qu Hanmou, a thousand-year-old music master, I didn’t expect that such a person would appear. However, the other party’s interest was not in political intrigue. Instead, he chose the path of the ancient sages, using his own hands and his own mind to practice his own thoughts. . 】
Xun Yu silently praised Cookie in his heart. Even Xun Yu had great admiration for this kind of sage who has clearly followed the path of the ancient sages and is almost ready to follow it. Those people's path is different from theirs, but no matter what, Both sides are practicing their thoughts and beliefs, but in different ways.
[That's it. For the sake of the descendants of the Tiancang clan, we will let you pass whatever you want to do. 】Xun Yu thought silently. (To be continued.)
