In the Fengxian Hall.
Lao Zhu and Queen Ma were continuing to read Zhu Biao's reply.
A follow-up to anti-corruption teaching.
Zhu Biao wanted to ask Su Jing to govern the Ming Dynasty and expand his business territory beyond Lishui County.
Su Jing naturally refused without hesitation.
And his reason directly silenced Zhu Yuanzhang.
If Su Jing's business really spread throughout the Ming Dynasty, the person who wanted him dead the most was the emperor.
"Mr. Su really understands everything."
Queen Ma sighed slightly.
As a queen, she naturally knew many of Zhu Yuanzhang's inner thoughts.
Su Jing's words are absolutely correct.
Straightforward, but transparent.
The emperor would not allow such a person to appear under his rule.
Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a moment and then said: "Su Jing does have rules and a sense of propriety."
Although this is just a simple statement, it already shows that Zhu Yuanzhang knows that Su Jing is a person who obeys the rules. As long as he continues to maintain it, everything will be fine.
The two continued to look back.
Next, is Su Jing’s opinion on women entering the temple.
Seeing the exchange between Su Jing and Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression also changed slightly.
When it comes to this content in the Ming Dynasty Law, he knows it best.
But in fact, he also knew that it would not be implemented at all.
Because there were too many Buddhist believers in the entire Ming Dynasty, including many wives and daughters of royal nobles.
Of course, it was also because the woman worshiping the Buddha did not really cause any big trouble, otherwise Lao Zhu wouldn't mind a fight.
"Biao'er thinks things are a bit simpler."
Queen Ma commented after seeing Zhu Biao's answer as to why women could not enter the temple.
Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded and said: "Huh, that's Su Jing digging a hole for Biao'er!"
Even in front of Queen Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang still wanted to belittle Su Jing.
Queen Ma said nothing and continued to look down.
Next is Su Jing's interpretation of the law that women cannot enter the temple.
As soon as the first article came out, Zhu Yuanzhang's face showed excitement and he said:
"Su Jing understands me!"
Going to the temple to worship Buddha is quite expensive.
As a former monk, Zhu Yuanzhang had seen many women whose families were too poor to reveal the blame, but still wanted to pay for sesame oil.
If this were the case in the Ming Dynasty, the country would not even be able to raise taxes.
Empress Ma said matter-of-factly: "Isn't it normal for Mr. Su to see through your thoughts?"
Zhu Yuanzhang chuckled and continued to look back.
As soon as this second article came out, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately slapped the table.
Of course, not angry, but excited.
It’s the kind of complex emotions that are understood.
The so-called emperor is a lonely person who is not in his position. He can only experience many things by himself.
Su Jing actually saw what he was thinking from this law.
It was like roundworms in my stomach!
"Chongpachi, calm down."
Seeing this, Queen Ma quickly persuaded Zhu Yuanzhang to stop. This slap shocked the eunuchs and maids outside.
"Sister, this Su Jing really understands me."
As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, his expression calmed down.
Su Jing's accurate grasp of her own positioning and Lao Zhu's psychology made Lao Zhu feel excited.
But at the same time, it also made Lao Zhu suspicious.
For a person who can see himself and the emperor so clearly, wouldn't it be very dangerous if one day he wants to cause trouble?
Thinking of this, Lao Zhu already had an idea in his mind. Su Jing's monitoring must be more stringent.
This person can never escape his own control.
Su Jing didn't know yet, but just because she had analyzed Lao Zhu's psychology, she was being monitored much more intensely.
In Lishui County.
Su Jing was doing morning exercises with Zhu Biao.
But this time it's not Wu Qin Xi, but Jun Ti Quan.
This was something Su Jing had promised to teach Zhu Biao before, and Zhu Biao was practicing very seriously now.
"Come on, Niu Yi, I have broken down and explained all the movements. Now I will do it again from the beginning. You can see clearly."
Su Jing said to Zhu Biao, her body already in a posture.
"Yes, Master Su."
Zhu Biao nodded and watched Su Jing's movements carefully.
Su Jing immediately began to practice the first set of military boxing, which was the same set practiced by college students in military training in her previous life.
There aren't a lot of moves, but they are done quite neatly.
The main function is only basic self-defense and exercise.
"Lunge and punch!"
"Throat kick!"
"Hit on horseback!"
"Block and fight!"
"Strike on the waist and choke!"
"Okay, that's about it, come and try it."
Su Jing closed her fists and straightened herself, and the drill was completed.
"Yes, Master Su."
Zhu Biao started practicing immediately. After practicing it twice, he was able to complete the whole set very coherently.
This is all due to the teachings of Zhu Biao's military commander teacher since he was a child. His physical fitness is quite good and his mind is also smart.
A small first set of military boxing is not that difficult.
"Very good, I learn quickly."
Su Jing watched Zhu Biao finish playing and said with great satisfaction.
Zhu Biao turned to Su Jing and said, "Master Su, I think this set of boxing techniques is used for fighting."
In the first set of military boxing, there are still many powerful and fierce moves.
It can be used for fighting, which is not bad.
Some of these scientific methods of exerting force made Zhu Biao feel quite novel.
Su Jing said lightly: "It can barely be counted, but the main function is to strengthen the body. If you really want to fight, forget it."
This is the age of cold weapons, and hand-to-hand combat is just that, no matter how strong it is.
"I understand, Master Su."
Zhu Biao nodded, slightly disappointed.
He originally thought that this military style fist could have a greater effect.
After all, it was the boxing technique taught by Su Jing herself.
After the morning exercise, the two went to the breakfast shop to have breakfast together.
Zhu Biao is still thinking about how to solve the natural disasters that occurred more than two hundred years after the Ming Dynasty.
This is a thorn in his heart, and it will always be difficult to get rid of it if it is not resolved.
"Niu Yi, I see that you are a little absent-minded. Are you still thinking about what happened yesterday?"
Su Jing asked casually.
Zhu Biao answered truthfully: "The student is stupid and wants to solve the problem, but he still can't. Please ask Master Su to teach me."
Although Su Jing said there was nothing he could do, Zhu Biao still placed his hope on him.
Su Jing shook her head slightly, she couldn't bear to see her apprentice so decadent all the time.
He said: "Well, let's do it. It just so happens that I am going to the fields today, and you can come with me."
"Although the Malthusian trap cannot be solved at present, there are still ways to delay it."
After all, it is a problem of limited land carrying capacity.
With Su Jing's ability, it is still possible to increase the upper limit of the land's carrying capacity.
"Thank you Master Su!"
Zhu Biao's face was filled with joy and excitement.
After breakfast, the two went straight to the countryside.
In a wooden house on the edge of the field, there are many glass trays on rows of wooden shelves.
These trays were all made by Su Jing using glass produced in the previous glass factory.
Inside the pallet, there are small grids divided by wooden boards, which look quite delicate.
There is an openable skylight above the wooden house. When it is opened, the sunlight can shine on these pallets.
The whole structure looks quite exquisite.
"Master Su, what is this for?"
Zhu Biao looked at everything in the wooden house and asked curiously.
Su Jing gave up and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will tell you later. Now go out with me and mix the soil."
Mix soil?
Zhu Biao was a little confused and couldn't figure out what Su Jing was doing.
But even if you don't understand Su Jing's instructions, you must follow them.
Just outside the wooden house, a pile of plant ash and a pile of well-rotted dried cow dung have been piled up.
"Go dig some soil in the field, try to make it as dry as possible, and bring it over if it breaks into pieces."
Su Jing gave instructions to Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao rolled up his sleeves, picked up his hoe and went away. After a while, he came back with a lot of soil.
Su Jing got a wooden scoop out of nowhere and used this wooden scoop as the unit of measurement.
Five scoops of soil, three scoops of plant ash and two scoops of dried cow dung were mixed together.
Then Su Jing brought the mixed culture soil into the wooden house and spread it bit by bit on the glass tray.
Then, he took out the germinated seeds wrapped in sand and wet gauze from a wooden barrel, and placed them one by one into the separated grids.
That's right, what Su Jing is doing now is raising seedlings.
Zhu Biao was completely confused by this operation. He could only roughly know that Su Jing was planting something, but why he was doing this was completely unclear.
After all the seeds were put into the seedling tray, Su Jing stopped.
He looked at Zhu Biao and said, "Niu Yi, let me ask you a question. What do you think a seed needs to sprout and grow?"
Zhu Biao immediately replied: "It needs land, fertilizer, water and sun."
Su Jing nodded and said, "Yes, there's nothing wrong with that."
Zhu Biao smiled and said: "Master Su, any farmer knows this kind of thing."
The Ming Dynasty was an agricultural society, and farming was the most basic and important thing.
It would be strange if I didn’t know.
Su Jing smiled and said, "It's one thing to know, but it's another thing to know why."
"You saw what I was doing just now. In fact, what I was doing was raising seedlings."
"Then do you know why I don't raise seedlings directly in the field, but in this wooden house?"
Zhu Biao was stunned, shook his head and said, "Students don't know."
Su Jing said lightly: "You just said that from seeds to sprouting, you need land, fertilizer, water and sun."
"Then let me put it another way, does it need soil, nutrients, humidity, temperature and light? I can understand it."
Su Jing said several professional terms at once, but fortunately it was not something profound. Zhu Biao simply repeated it and understood.
Zhu Biao nodded, indicating that he understood.
Su Jing continued: "Different plants have different characteristics and require different conditions for their growth."
“Especially in the early stages of germination and seedling growth, it is especially important.”
"You see, the soil, nutrients, humidity, temperature and light in my nursery are easier to adjust than in the field. As long as the optimal conditions for plant production are mastered and properly adjusted, their survival will be The rate can be higher.”
"Compared with simply sowing seeds and letting nature dictate their growth, this method can obviously greatly improve the efficiency of production and planting, and also increase the yield of crops in disguise. This is called scientific seedling cultivation."
Zhu Biao benefited a lot from what Su Jing said, and at the same time his eyes were starry-eyed.
Zhu Biao was involved in how people farmed in the Ming Dynasty.
The vast majority of farmers do not know the Chinese characters and can only farm according to the experience passed down from generation to generation.
Resigning yourself to fate is half a good thing.
But from Su Jing's seedling theory, Zhu Biao saw another possibility.
However, the starlight in Zhu Biao's eyes did not last long.
"Here, let me show you the success rate of my previous seedlings."
Su Jing opened the door of the nursery next to her with a confident look.
