v2 Chapter 3 - Adapt to local conditions



“This … Jian’er, these strategies, can it really be done?”

Tian Feng looked at his son incredulously.

The detailed and feasible plan in front of me was really written by my son?

Is only six years old, he knew so much that he didn’t even know anything?

Also said that I saw it in some miscellaneous books …

Zhou Ming said with a firm face: “It will certainly succeed, father, you actually do n’t know that this place in Haiping County is really much better than other places. Developing some industries here has many unimaginable advantages over other places. And benefits. “

“But this … you are talking about combined agriculture and animal husbandry, half of the field is used to feed cattle, horses and livestock, is this not too wasteful? It is tens of thousands of acres of good land!”

“There is also sea salt …”

Father Tian Fenggeng said something unacceptable: “How can seawater produce salt, and it is almost the same as cooking with chaihe. If it can really be dried, why don’t others go to it and wait until you do it to produce salt?”

There is also the development of marine fishing, which is even more unreliable. First of all, there are not so many fishermen and fishing boats in the Tian family. Even if a group of fishermen and boats come over to go fishing in the sea, on the one hand, they risk high winds and waves and risk their lives. Even if the sea fish came back and left on the shore for a while, it quickly became smelly and could not be eaten at all.

“My father, and listen to me.”

Zhou Ming stepped forward and explained: “The combined farming and animal husbandry model actually has more advantages and multiple advantages than simple wheat and soybean rotation. One is that there are more fallow fields, and the fertility of the land can be better maintained. The other is that there are more animals. The burden of the tenant farmers has been greatly reduced, and more manpower and manpower can be freed up. Three, the free manpower and manpower have increased. Whether it is sea salt drying or the development of marine fishing, there are enough people to participate To create greater economic benefits! “

After a pause, Zhou Ming said clearly: “As for whether the sea salt can be dried, father, let’s get a small piece of space according to the method in the ancient book. Will it not work if we test it? It doesn’t take much manpower and time. As for the fish caught in the sea, as long as the sea salt drying test is successful, and there is enough salt, are you afraid that those sea fish can’t be handled? Cooked and dried, marinated with salt, and dried salted fish, Are you still afraid of selling? “

“This……”

Listening to these three interlocking and closely related plans, my father Tian Feng had to admit that if his son Tian Jian said all of them were true, this plan really has no small feasibility.

But …

My son, not thinking about the Five Books and Six Scriptures, shining the lintel of the Tian family, so as to comfort the ancestors in the spirit of the sky, and study all these things all day.

Moreover, the Tian family has 100,000 acres of good land, and the grain can harvest hundreds of thousands of stones every year, which is equivalent to copper money, without worrying about eating, wearing, or lack of money. What else do we have to do?

It is better to study hard, strive to be admitted to the Jinshi, and become a big official, so that the Haiping Tian family, who has not had children for hundreds of years, can become a famous name and become a famous monarch …

Seeing that the enthusiasm on his father Tian Feng’s face gradually subsided, his attitude towards the plan in front of him became cold and negative, and he began to put a face on his face, ready to reprimand himself for a while, Zhou Ming said a word and immediately made him extremely disappointed. Calm down:

“My father, don’t you want to recapture the ancestral tablets and genealogy that belonged to the Haiping Tian family from the Guangling Tian family in your lifetime?”

Seemed to stabb his father Tian Feng’s point G. He blushed suddenly, staring at Zhou Ming and said, “Why do you say this?”

Zhou Ming pointed to the plan book on the table: “The reason why the Guangling Tian family can become one of the six surnames and eight families is by virtue of two things, one is power and the other is salt, and salt is the foundation of the Guangling Tian family. If there is no Changlu Salt Farm to bring tens of millions of consecutive benefits to the Guangling Tianjia every year, the Guangling Tianjia does not have such strong capital to help its people to enter the Chaotang development, nor does it have the capital. The ancestor helped him win the world and became one of the 72 pioneers of Lingyan Pavilion … “

Zhou Mingzhen deaf said: “So, my father, don’t ignore the importance of money at all times. If you want to persuade the Guangling Tian family and force them to return the ancestral family tree to their home, our Tian family, apart from doing something in the court, In terms of money, it must also reach a level comparable to that of Guangling Tianjia and even better! “

Father Tian Feng ’s face changed and became extremely serious and serious. He re-examined the plan in front of him and murmured the words “salt”, “sea fish”, “Guangling Tianjia” and “genealogy” from time to time. At the table, grabbed the plan, looked at Zhou Ming and said: “Jian’er, these three strategies, are they really feasible?”

“Isn’t it feasible? I’ll know if I try it.”

“Try it then!”

Uh …

In the next two months, I used to drink and chat with my friends, and my wife and my father, Hua Huaxueyue, had a career that was rare. Without the supervision of others, I followed the plan in the Zhou Ming plan and started from the manor land Ten thousand acres of good land were set aside, and a new farming model experiment of semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral style was conducted. Then he took thousands of tenant farmers personally, and went twenty miles east of the east. At the edge of the seawater immersion area, he picked soil to build embankments and surrounded the sea to make fields.

This day, the wind and the sun are beautiful.

After twenty-five days of evaporation and drying, the seawater in the evaporation pond, which accounts for about 95% of the total area of ​​the salt field, was evaporated into brine with nearly saturated salinity, and then introduced into the dozen large flat-bottomed pots in the crystallization pond A few firewoods were added under the pot to speed up the evaporation of salt brine.

In a while, the old salt worker who kept stirring with a wooden stick saw some fine translucent crystalline particles appearing under the wooden stick, UU reading book www.uukanshu. com immediately shouted excitedly: “The salt is out, the brine is out of salt!”

“Salt comes out here too!”

“It’s too easy! These brines that have been exposed to the sun for many days, it’s too easy to produce salt!”

There were dozens of large flat-bottomed earthenware pots that had been cooked on the earth stove for a while, and good news came.

The pottery pot was continuously refined for three days. After filtration and purification, the first batch of sea salt with a total weight of nearly five tons was loaded and transported to the large warehouse in Wubao together.

Before entering the warehouse, open a mouthful of salt bags, fingers picked a pinch of sea salt with even and fine particles, as white as winter snow, put it in his mouth to taste, Zhou Ming nodded and said: “It tastes good, it is first-class Good salt should be sold at a good price, but the output is too low. A 20-acre salt field can only extract 100 stone sea salt (1 stone = 50kg) a month. “

On the other side, my father, Tian Feng, whose skin has been tanned a lot recently, said excitedly: “A lot of Jianer, these 100 stone salts, almost enough for everyone in the village to eat for a year, we no longer have to work with salt merchants. Here, buy the bad salt with high price and low quality! “

“It’s not enough to eat alone!”

The son’s words surprised him slightly, but he heard a thunderous message in his ear and said: “If possible, we can dip a large area of ​​seawater in Haiping County into the east for fifteen miles and repair a total length of eight. A seawall of ten miles and a height of ten meters surrounds a 300,000 mu salt field. As long as the salt field is exposed to two batches of salt in two months with the least rainfall in a year, 7.5 million stone salts can be obtained, so much Salt, let alone a small Tianjiazhuang, is that all the people in the Great Zhou Kingdom may not eat so much salt. “

This……

Father Tian Feng was dumbfounded and his heart was beating violently, not knowing what to say.
