Chapter 226: The Weapon of the Nation
"If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext." Chen Cang didn't want to talk anymore. He always had a feeling that the more he talked, the more mistakes he would make.
"You can wait and see whether it is a false accusation or not." Shan Li said and turned to leave.
When leaving, he asked Feng Yi to find him another place.
Your martial arts skills may be wasted, but you must live well.
He is useful.
Feng Yi did not dare to delay after receiving the order and directly moved Chen Cang to another place.
The conditions were slightly better than those in the secret room, but his martial arts, which had already been greatly damaged by the injury, were completely wasted.
"You're back so soon?!" Song Qingci felt that he had only been gone for a short while, so how come he came back so soon?
"Well, I just wanted to confirm one thing, and I'll come back once it's confirmed." Shan Li didn't forget what she promised Ah Ci to copy for her.
He walked straight to the desk and began to grind ink.
"I moved him to another place. For the time being, he has to stay alive."
Shan Li has already started copying.
"How long will you live?" Song Qingci was a little curious.
"His Majesty the Emperor's 1000th birthday."
Some things will only be most effective when spoken out when the scene is big enough and there are enough people.
Song Qingci tried hard to recall his original body's memories. Emperor Chengtian's birthday took place after the beginning of winter.
It's still a long time from now.
"Won't it be a long wait?" Song Qingci always felt that the waiting time was too long. You know, after a long time, something unexpected will happen.
Sometimes it's hard to guard against.
"No!" Shan Li was very sure. "Only if we wait long enough can we uproot it more smoothly."
"Okay. Just make sure you have a plan in mind." Song Qingci is not a nosy person. Just remind him.
Moreover, she believed that Shan Li was not the kind of blindly arrogant person.
He should have a complete plan in his mind.
"Do I have to copy this part exactly as well?" Shan Li was copying the method of cuttings, and there was a sentence on it: "You can cover it with plastic film to keep it moist." He didn't know what plastic film was.
"Well, you can replace the plastic film with oilcloth." Song Qingci thought about it. There was no such thing as plastic film in this era. The closest thing to it was oilcloth in this era.
"Oilcloth is expensive. If we use it for farming, isn't it a waste?" Although Shan Li doesn't know much about farming, he knows about people's livelihood.
Ordinary people were reluctant to use even the most ordinary coarse cloth, let alone oilcloth.
"Whether it is a waste or not depends on how much value it can create. If the output of one acre of land cannot even buy oilcloth, then it is definitely not cost-effective. But if the income from one acre of land can buy ten pieces of oilcloth, would it still be considered a waste? ! "
When investing in this matter, you cannot simply look at the unit price, you have to calculate the return on investment.
If the return on investment is high, it is worth it even if the initial investment is large.
It's like someone telling you that this project can earn you 10 million yuan in a year with a one-million-yuan investment. You would definitely sell everything you have to make up the 1 million yuan you invested.
"What Ah Ci said makes sense." Shan Li thought about it for a moment and understood what Song Qingci meant. He followed her instructions and changed all the plastic films into oilcloth.
With Shan Li's help, the books that Song Qingci needed were copied quickly.
Shan Li also learned a lot of things that he had never thought about before during this copying.
It turns out that farming is no easier than fighting a war.
There are so many good ways to grow crops and increase yields.
The days passed quickly in such an atmosphere.
Shan Li and Song Qingci spent half a month sorting and copying all the books about planting in the space.
Those crops that Dachen Kingdom did not yet have were naturally abandoned.
First pick up the ones from Dachen State and copy them.
In particular, there was a chapter about how to grow winter wheat, which Shan Li copied very carefully.
After copying it, he carefully asked A Ci if he could make an extra copy and send it to Qianfeng Pass.
Military supplies and food have always been the most troublesome problem for Qianfeng Pass.
However, due to the weather in the north, the harvest from farming there was extremely low, so even though there were military farms, they were not cultivated much.
After working so hard for half a year, the output is only a few. No one would want to do it again.
However, Shan Li felt that if this document on the planting and maintenance of winter wheat was sent to his father in Qianfeng Pass, both the garrison troops and the local people could try to plant it during their free time.
If it is really successful, it will greatly alleviate the food and grass problem at the border.
Of course Song Qingci agreed very much.
Soldiers have the hardest life, especially those guarding the border.
If the planting and maintenance of winter wheat could help them, Song Qingci would naturally be more than happy to do so.
She should have more respect for those who defend their country.
"Thank you! Ah Ci!" Shan Li was so excited that he hugged Song Qingci. "If it can really be grown according to what is said here, it will be a great thing for the soldiers at the border."
By the time Song Qingci reacted, he had already let go.
"I immediately wrote a letter to my father and gave him this thing." Shan Li's smile deepened.
It was also the first time that Song Qingci discovered that when Shan Li smiled sincerely, she was so bright and beautiful.
She got excited and said faster than her brain could think, "I have some improved high-yield wheat seeds here. Do you want to send them to the border to try? !"
"Really?!" Shan Li was shocked. "How productive?!"
Shan Li had no doubt about Song Qingci's high productivity, but he didn't know how high it could be.
"Well, the yield per mu is about 1,000 kilograms." In fact, in China, if the fertilizer is applied properly, it is normal to have a yield of 1,500 kilograms per mu.
There was no fertilizer in Dachen Kingdom, so Song Qingci reported a more conservative figure.
But even such a conservative number shocked Shan Li.
Even though Dachen Kingdom is a wealthy place like Jiangnan, the wheat yield per mu is only two to three hundred kilograms, and such a harvest can only be achieved in a year of good weather and good harvest.
If the weather is not so favorable, a yield of 100 to 200 kilograms per mu is normal.
This wheat seed can produce 1,000 kilograms per mu, so it is no exaggeration to call it a national weapon.
"How many of these wheat seeds do you have?" Shan Li asked, suppressing his excitement.
