Chapter 141: Twenty Days, Planting Of The Second Crop Of Potatoes [Please Subscribe, Please Subscrib
It took three days for Yan Changqing to command his colleague Jiang Wei in the Jinyiwei, and he was accompanied by thousands of Jinyiwei such as Lu Wenzhao, Lu Jianxing, Jin Yichuan and others.
In other words, under protection, he mounted a carriage and conducted a general on-the-spot inspection of the area belonging to the Agricultural College in Shangyuan County.
The main purpose is to determine two areas, one is the core planting area for the second crop of potatoes in the future, and the other is the workshop area for firing colored glaze and producing other commercial products in the future.
After identifying these two main areas, Yan Changqing asked the 1,565 tenant households affiliated with the Agricultural College to cultivate fields for planting potatoes.
In fact, the area for planting potatoes for the second crop is not very large. After all, Yan Changqing only has about a hundred potato seeds on hand now, and three acres of land is enough for early planting.
In the case of Yan Changqing paid "and also ten by the main meal. "Seventeen"
In just five days, more than 3,000 young adults from 1,565 tenant households had worked together to cultivate the three acres of land, and also dug many irrigation channels.
At the same time, Yan Changqing also asked Lu Wenzhao, Lu Jianxing, Jin Chuan and other Jin Yiwei to spend money to hire a construction team of 300 people in Yingtian Mansion, and asked them to urgently build some temporary residences around the three acres of land.
This is mainly used to give the Jinyiwei personnel a rotation of rest.
After all, potatoes yield at least twenty shi per mu, and Yan Changqing did not dare to be careless.
Shangyuan County is not the small field in his backyard, and he cannot see all three acres of land at a glance.
If some unsuspecting refugee or beggar sneaks in, digs out potato seeds and eats them, Yan Changqing feels that Zhu Yuanzhang may be so angry that he wants to kill him.
In addition, Yan Changqing also knew the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang dispatched five thousand Jinyi guards to protect him.
In fact, it is not really just to protect him, but more to protect the potatoes there.
Therefore, Yan Changqing also wisely separated three thousand Jin Yiwei from the five thousand Jin Yiwei who protected him, led by three Jin Yiwei Qianhu, Lu Jianxing, Jin Yichuan, and Shen Lian.
Three shifts a day alternate, responsible for seamlessly caring for Wang Yuantian.
It was guaranteed that no one else could enter the potato field except him, Yan Changqing, and the people Yan Changqing brought.
Of course, among the others, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor, and the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes are exceptions.
Counting from the day after Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes left.
On the third day, Yan Changqing received information such as map files and documents for the location of the Agricultural College.
On the sixth day, the field investigation was completed and a preliminary regional planning and design drawing was given.
On the eleventh day, the fields for the second crop of potatoes were cultivated;
At the same time, on the eighth day before, Yan Changqing had already started cutting the potatoes into pieces, mixing them with plant ash to supplement potassium, and artificially sprouting them.
Finally, on the twentieth day, which was the twelfth day of artificial germination, basically all the cut potatoes sprouted.
It was also on the twentieth day that Yan Changqing officially planted the Houtu beans that had sprouted.
Zhu Yuanzhang, Empress Ma, who usually didn't like to go out, and the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes all quietly rode carriages from the palace to Shangyuan County and went to the scene to watch Yan Chang in person. The potato patches are about to be planted.
Seeing the last piece of potato being bulldozed and buried by Yan Changqing, Prince Zhu Biao couldn't help but sigh:
"Mr. Yan said that the sowing of the second crop of potatoes will be completed within 20 days, so he really completed the sowing of the second crop of potatoes within 20 days!!!"
Hearing Zhu Biao's emotion, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes all remembered what Yan Changqing said twenty days ago:
[Strive to produce a map within three days, a plan within seven days, complete the clearing of the potato planting area within fifteen days, and complete the sowing of the second crop of potatoes within twenty days. 】
And now it seems that this time arrangement is really good for sharing!
If you say twenty days, then it is twenty days!!!
One more day, one more hour, one more quarter of an hour, will not count as twenty days!!!
"Indeed, Mr. Yan seems to have always attached great importance to planning and time efficiency."
Zhu Di couldn't help but nodded and agreed.
Zhu Yuanzhang and the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, and Zhu Xi also nodded in agreement.
After sowing, Yan Changqing brought Zhu Zhen and Zhu Shu, who were covered in mud, to meet Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma.
After all, Zhu Zhen and Zhu Zhu lost the bet during their previous bet, and Zhu Yuanzhang personally witnessed it……
Then the two of them must be willing to admit defeat and become farmers in Yan Changqing for the next five months.
So when sowing today, Yan Changqing also commanded Zhu Zhen and Zhu Shu without any politeness.
"I have met Your Majesty and the Queen."
Yan Changqing looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma and nodded slightly to show his salute. As for the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, he no longer needs to take the initiative to salute them.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly as a return gift, while Queen Ma said kindly:
"I really bothered Mr. Yan today. With the potatoes that Mr. Yan discovered, cultivated and planted, people all over the world will finally be able to get rid of the worry of famine in the future!!!"
"I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Yan on behalf of His Majesty and the people of the world!!!"
After saying this, the Queen was ready to kneel down and bow to Yan Changqing to thank him.
Seeing this, whether it was Zhu Yuanzhang or all the princes including Zhu Biao, Zhu Fang, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di, etc., their expressions all changed.
Similarly, Yan Changqing's expression also changed, and even Yan Changqing felt a slight numbness in his scalp, because Zhu Yuanzhang was staring at him with a look that wanted to kill!!!
Even Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes who usually respected him were all staring at him with unkind eyes at this moment!!!
Yan Changqing immediately stepped aside and raised his hands in vain, not daring to accept Queen Ma's 5.5 salute, and then said with a wry smile:
"Your Majesty, you are serious. I just did some of my duty. I don't deserve such a great gift from you!!!"
Seeing that Yan Changqing refused to receive a salute from her, Empress Ma had no choice but to give up. She barely gave him a half salute and then stood up.
Seeing Yan Changqing's knowing look, Zhu Yuanzhang just snorted and withdrew his gaze as if he wanted to kill someone.
At the same time, the eyes of the princes such as Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, and Zhu Di also changed from the vaguely unkind ones to the original slightly respectful ones.
