In fact, Xia Tian knew very well that the second prince, third prince, and fifth prince did not understand farming at all!
He pointed at the raging fire in the field and the plume of smoke rising into the sky, his eyes full of hope, and explained: "Because the fire can burn the insect eggs in these new fields to death, it can burn the grass roots to death, and it can burn the fields." The poison inside heats up, and the burned plant ash is an excellent fertilizer, which can make the fields fertile!"
"So, this fire must be burned!"
"So mysterious?"
The second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince seemed to understand, but felt that it was very powerful. They raised their hands and saluted: "I have been taught!"
Xia Tian seemed to be smiling, not caring whether they could understand or not: "After the fire is finished, heavy snow will cover the soil in the field again. The ground covered with ice and snow does not conduct heat, and can keep the heat of the burning ground for a long time." , will produce a lot of nitrogen compounds in the soil, and when the snow melts, these nitrogen compounds will be brought to the soil by the snow water, and will become the best fertilizer."
"When the snow melts, the air has to absorb a lot of heat from the soil. At this time, the soil will become very cold, and pests that have not been burned to death after experiencing high temperatures will also freeze to death."
“Since then, these new fields have been completely free of pests!”
“Becoming more fertile too!”
Having said this, Xia Tian pointed to the white snow on the ground and said, "The auspicious snow heralds a good harvest!"
"I see!"
The second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince still seemed to understand!
But I just feel that the knowledge here is very profound!
I don’t know how serious it is!
The third prince couldn't help but ask: "Brother Prince, what is that nitride you are talking about?"
The second prince and the fifth prince also want to know the answer!
Xia Tian thought for a moment: "It's one of the synthetic compounds of fertilizer!"
“What is fertilizer?”
summer:"......"
After thinking for a while, he finally explained: "It's a good thing that can increase wheat and grain harvests. Just like the adjective "fat difference", they are both good things!"
"That's it!"
The three princes really understand!
They don’t understand nitrogen compounds, but they understand fertilizer differences!
At this time, looking at the fields extending to the end of the river by the river, Xia Tian's eyes were full of hope!
Because after the beginning of spring, a small part of the farmland will be planted with this continent’s unique rice!
If the attack of the Sirius Empire can be blocked next year, enough rice seeds will be produced in the Barren State next year, and rice can be planted all over the Barren State the year after that, thus solving the food shortage problem in the Barren State!
In the future, he will be able to plant rice in the Great Xia Empire!
In the future, the Great Xia Empire will not have to worry about food!
Pay tribute to the creator of rice!
That is a true saint!
Thinking of this, Xia Tian brought his thoughts back!
Of course, we must first defeat the Sirius Empire, the Barbarian Empire, and the Black Man Empire!
The land of Daxia must not be lost!
"drive....."
At this moment, Zhuang Hoe drove his horse to the carriage: "Your Highness, the task of reclaiming farmland has been overfulfilled. The amount of fertile land has been reported to the palace. I will explain it to you in detail after you return to Huangzhou Palace!"
"Thank you, Mr. Zhuang!"
Xia Tian's face was full of sincerity: "Lao Zhuang should take the lead in rebuilding the barren state!"
"intolerable!"
Hoe Zhuang looked shocked: "The old man just led his people to reclaim the farmland and cultivated some seeds under the guidance of His Highness. He definitely does not deserve the first credit!"
"Your Highness has broken the old man's heart!"
"Deserve it!"
Xia Tian's face became solemn and extremely serious: "Farming is the foundation of the world, and there is no greater service than that!"
"What's the meaning?"
The third prince only understood half of the sentence again!
Xia Tian had no choice but to explain: "It means that agriculture is the foundation of the country and the biggest thing in the world!"
“Food is the most important thing for the people!”
"understood!"
Suddenly, the third prince took out a small notebook from his sleeve, and then took out a "charcoal pen" newly invented by Huangzhou, and began to write down in the small notebook: Farming is the foundation of the world. Food is the most important thing!
"When I return to my fiefdom, I will use this sentence to educate the officials in charge of agriculture!"
"Brother Tianzi, continue!"
"I, the king, continue to record!"
Then, I saw small notebooks and "charcoal pencils" popping out of the sleeves of the second and fifth princes. They were recording exactly the same as the third prince. They were obviously prepared!
"Brother Prince, what else can you teach me?"
summer:"......."
"Brothers, let's move on!"
They have really changed!
"drive......"
The convoy continued to move forward, passing the arch bridge across the river, passing fishing villages along official roads, and driving among endless rice fields.
Along the way, the Second Prince, the Third Prince, and the Fifth Prince stood on the shaft of the carriage and fell into thought!
Is Lao Jiu going to create another peaceful south in this barren land and harsh waters?
What a big spirit!
Feeling the smoothness of the official road under the car, looking at the endless new farmland like a picture scroll, looking at the hopeful smiles on the farmers' faces, and looking at the beautiful villages along the way, the three princes became more and more shocked as they thought about it!
Such a big project must have been completed by millions of refugees who were despised by various fiefdoms!
Definitely is!
No wonder Lao Jiu opened the gates of Huangzhou to seek refugees!
No wonder he is willing to support so many refugees who have nothing!
The second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince thought about it for a long time, and finally saluted Xia Tian again: "Since ancient times, people in the world have been afraid of refugees and have regarded them as disasters. Only the prince's younger brother can see their power and make them They built the barren state into this state!"
"This is nothing short of a miracle!"
Xia Xia returned the courtesy and said: "Three brothers, if you look at ancient history, you will understand a truth..."
"What's the point?"
“There is strength in numbers!”
The three princes: "..."
At this time.
"drive......"
A motorcade was coming towards us, and we could see that the carriages in the motorcade were all filled with porcelain, which was shining in the sun. It was very dazzling!
"It's all money!"
The third prince looked envious!
But, why didn’t the opposing team stop?
Do they still dare to stare at themselves?
The third prince was furious, he was so unruly!
"Brother Prince, why don't they stop to see you?"
Xia Tian smiled calmly: "There is a law in the Huangzhou. If you meet an official who is traveling without sealing the road, you don't need to stop to pay respects and continue to do your own thing!"
"And no one is allowed to watch, otherwise, we will fight for thirty!"
The third prince was still confused: "Why are their eyes so wide?"
"This is simply an offense to the emperor's power!"
At this time.
Du Jun stepped forward on his horse and explained: "This is called the attention ceremony, and it is a military salute of the Huangzhou Army!"
"This motorcade was escorted by the Huangzhou Army in plain clothes, so they paid attention to His Highness and the princes!"
"That's it!"
The second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince looked awkward: "The rules of Huangzhou... are really strange!"
What a unique desert state!
The west wind blew gently at the second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince, making them feel complicated!
It's all so fantastical!
After a while.
The third prince thought of something and said with some worry: "Brother Prince, even if the wilderness has cultivated fertile land, it will take at least three years to achieve self-sufficiency!"
"You can support a million refugees for a while, but... can you support them for three years?"
