Amidst the buzzing sound, the rice transplanter driven by the small steam engine moved forward in the paddy field at the speed of a normal person walking.
One person is responsible for steering the equipment forward, and another person puts lumps of rice seedlings behind and scoops water up to pour the rice seedlings. The board behind the rice seedlings is sloping and can easily get stuck.
The wheels of the rice transplanter are small in front and large in the back. The external gears and wheel hubs are mostly hollow, so they are so light and can grip the ground at the same time.
The equipment can insert six rows at a time, and there will be problems such as leakage, damage and excess seedlings.
"I told the people before we started." Zhu Xi stared at it. This thing was smaller and more flexible than the one in Xiaqiu Village because it had been updated.
The rice transplanter does not need to be too big, as long as it can replace a person. No one wants to bend down and insert the rice seedlings into the soil step by step in the muddy paddy field.
The head of a nearby village replied, "Everyone has agreed that at worst, I will have to make up for it myself. As long as I insert it well, the rest will be easy.
It’s less work. It saves energy, and the energy saved can be used to do other things, and the rice will not be wasted.
Everyone will be well aware of the planting this year, and know that there is no rush when it comes to transplanting the rice. I will wait for you to plow other fields. After that, we will dig holes to plant sorghum.
You know, plant sorghum first, and then plant beans after the sorghum has grown for a while. The sorghum will help shade the beans. Beans are also fast, and the transplanting machine can be modified into a sorghum seeder.
There are also two types, one is a pusher like a wheel, and one seed is planted at a time. Pole-type seeder for returning seeds.
There is no need to dig a hole to put the seeds and then bury them. It is easiest to push the newly plowed land, and the soil has been plowed, broken and raked. ” >
This time it was Zhu Fan who spoke. The village provided many kinds of gadgets that people could rent or buy in nearby prefectures such as Yingtian Prefecture, Ningguo Prefecture, Taiping Prefecture, and Zhenjiang Prefecture.
It costs five cents a day to rent a wheel and one cent a day to rent a pole. Those who are willing to use poles for farming in the mountains can buy them for tens of cents, otherwise they have to use a hoe to dig holes and throw in the seeds. , cover the soil with your feet.
"There is a shortage of seedlings there. Quickly replenish them. Replenish them."
While talking here, some people saw that the rice transplanter was passing over and leaking seedlings, and they shouted to go and replenish them. In fact, it's not his family's land.
Many people did not work and just stared at the excitement. Things they had never dreamed of were working so fast that not just one but dozens of them were planting rice at the same time.
I did it once yesterday, and by the end of the day, all the ground had been planted. Last night, I still didn’t rest. I dug out ashes, fed some water, and fed some coal, and lit a big lantern by myself. Just work, the lamp is like a big eye, bright and bright.
"Go to work, go to work, don't look away, delay your own business, His Highness the King of Jin is kind enough to help us, we must be sensible."
Wang Shitong, the county magistrate, said He shouted at the people watching the excitement and told them to leave.Even if you go home and do some gardening, it's better than standing in the field and wasting time.
The people dispersed one after another. They walked along the field where the rice seedlings were planted yesterday. If they saw an empty spot, they would add a new one. If they saw two seedlings in a place, they would take one away.
Take a look at which plant is planted shallowly. Pick it up and see if it is injured. If it is not injured, press it directly. If it is injured, press it on another plant.
The rice transplanter is walking here, and the people in their own land are following behind. Those who have not had their turn go to cut the grass, prepare to feed the pigs and rabbits, and chop up the chickens, ducks and geese to eat.
When the rice grows longer, follow the sergeant’s instructions and drive the ducks into the rice fields. The ducks eat weeds and bugs on the rice, not the rice.
Not good for geese and chickens. They eat them, so be careful. If there are ducks, don’t ask the geese to approach the paddy fields. Even the grass on the ridges does not need to be dealt with by geese. Ducks will deal with it smoothly.
However, it is said that crabs must be caught and raised, so they cannot be used with ducks. Ducks eat crabs, so how to raise crabs?
"Your Highness, I heard that someone said that crabs from other places were caught. "Put it in paddy fields to raise"
Wang Shitong probably thought of what the people were thinking and asked.
Zhu Fan shook his head, "I don't want to raise any crabs anymore. I'll let them catch the crabs in Yuci County locally and make them into drunken crabs."
There are few wealthy people in a place who want to develop. No one can develop, everyone is poor, who can sell them
Barbarians don’t like to eat, so selling them requires traveling far away, and local crabs are probably not easy to sell, hey.”
Zhu Wentian Touching the chief, the chief quickly took over: "Your Highness, we still need crabs. Send them to Huimin Pharmacy and Herbal Medicine Library. They have prescriptions.
Whether it is dried crab meat or made into If someone is sick and needs the medicine, they can take the medicine according to the prescription.
Many people in Yingtian Mansion have used it, and some have eaten it secretly, especially the drunken crab. , so they were eaten by the medical officers."
"They ate less and sold most of the leftovers." Seeing that it took too long, they sold them when there was only half a month left. For rich people, it’s cheap, half cheaper than normal.”
Other officials”
“Your Highness, King Qin, how do you decide?” Zhaomo Lu Yu is responsible for auditing and other matters. , even though his rank is low, his professional ability is strong
“They were judged and no bonus was given to them. They filled out a form, and the hospital saw that there was no problem and passed it.
< p>The money from the sale is given to them as subsidies, and part is used to repair the pharmacy and add facilities, such as silver needles.They don't dare to be greedy, but they usually report to each other. Sell first and place the order later, otherwise it will be too late.”
Zhu Xiantan starts selling and selling, it is not a private sale, the price is transparent, anyone who dares to make false accounts is not afraid of being reported by his colleagues
"I remember the village chief said that there are also crabs near the salt pond. Send someone to organize them and tell the local officials to cooperate. We will collect them together in autumn. If they can't be sold, they will be used as medicinal materials."
Zhu Fang's results He wanted to count on crabs to make money, but found outWe still need to be isolated in paddy fields. The people are too busy. The key is where to find rich people.
"But this year the local drunken crabs will be sent to Nanjing for us. Let's go back to celebrate the New Year and have a taste. What's going on here?" Can we become rich?"
"Hanhan, do we need a lot of businessmen to come over?"
Before noon, it was hot, and everyone went back to their tents to rest and prepare for lunch. Find Hanhan and ask.
“There are no Shanxi merchants anymore, or there are no Shanxi merchants selling grain in exchange for salt. If you want to get rich here, you can only wait for other places to demand resources.
Local There is a lot of coal, and with the addition of salt ponds, coal doesn't matter now. It is available elsewhere. Salt from Henan Prefecture is being transported to other places, let alone making a lot of money. In such a place where salt is produced, it is difficult to increase the price. Unless there are political factors.
No one in Ming Dynasty will want to be a wealthy businessman. As for the future, that is not what you and I need to consider. ”
Zhu Wentian did not say whether other businessmen were coming, but he mentioned that businessmen were not allowed to be too rich, which would have an impact on the political power. Only when the Ming Dynasty had a certain amount of money could the businessmen make more money.
It has nothing to do with right or wrong, the positions we stand on are different. If you really want to play like that, wouldn't it be better to lead the development of the village by yourself first? Then Zhu Yuanzhang will be concerned about it.
