Glory Riding and Cutting

Chapter 355 Developing Agriculture

Two months later, the cultivated land near Khajuraho City has changed drastically. Greenhouses composed of white film and steel bars are buckled on the cultivated land. Inside the greenhouses, bare-chested, sweaty farmers are waving sickles to reap the harvest. fruit.

Don't think about it, these greenhouses were also created by Ronan during this period. As the crystallization of human wisdom, greenhouses can play an anti-seasonal warming effect, allowing some crops that need sufficient temperature to grow in spring and autumn when the temperature is relatively low and severe cold. It can also be planted in winter.

However, this area is still in a state of continuous experimentation, and there are still many problems, such as not having enough facilities to ensure a constant temperature in the greenhouse, and also unable to efficiently adjust the temperature, so now we can only grow some relatively solid crops, otherwise It is easy to die, resulting in reduced production or even no receipt of goods.

Outside the greenhouse, autumn has already entered, and a lot of crops have been planted on the cultivated land that has been harvested at this time. The seeds of these crops that can be planted in autumn or even winter are also exchanged by Ronan from the system, even I also exchanged a lot of books about the cultivation methods of these crops to find someone to learn from, and asked them to specialize in this, and became the first batch of agricultural experts in the Rongxia Empire.

Of course, excessive planting will definitely overdraw the land. Ronan is also researching how to maintain the fertility of the land or even make the fertility of the land better. It has been quite effective, and it is estimated that the first batch will be produced soon. Fertilizer comes.

Wearing ordinary clothes, Ronan took a few newly promoted agricultural experts and some guards for a walk in a large shed. Khajuraho is close to the river and there is no shortage of water, so the well does not need to be deep. Since there is no electricity, so Ronan can only use some local methods to achieve drip irrigation.

Set up a shelf above all the ridges, and put a drip irrigation head made of funnels and small pipes on top of it. Farmers fill in water every once in a while, and the water drops will drop by layers of mechanisms. Drop by drop on the crops ensures the maximum utilization of water resources and no waste. After all, no shortage of water is relative.

Most of the crops currently planted in the greenhouse are small cabbage, rape lettuce and other crops that are easy to feed, and the growth cycle is fast, and they can harvest more than ten stubbles a year. Considering the fertility of the land, the number of crops will be reduced.

After these two months of hard work, the grain production here has more than tripled. When it is gradually promoted in the future, all parts of the Rongxia Kingdom will no longer be short of grain, and even become a major grain exporter.

Very well, don't let your research fall behind. The seeds I gave you should also be tested carefully. The Northland lacks water. Whether those seeds can be successfully planted and survived in arid areas is very important to the Northland!

After digging out a ripe cabbage, Ronan looked through it carefully, then handed it over to the experts behind him and said to them at the same time.

The seeds given to them to find a place to plant for experimentation are also crops with strong drought resistance that Ronan exchanged from the system. If they can be successfully planted on a large scale, they can solve a big problem.

Come on, let's go to school!

Walking out of the hot greenhouse, Ronan felt the cool breeze blowing gently on his cheeks outside and relieved the irritability caused by the scorching heat inside the greenhouse. War horses on wooden posts by the roadside.

The school was built in the outer city of Khajuraho. It has just started for less than a month. Most of the students are children of the people in the city. There are also some young people who have not been conscripted before. There are even some female students. This is Ronan They were specially recruited, they were all from good families, and they were not very old. Ronan didn't want to put education only on men. Under the influence of his previous life thinking, he felt that if women in this world could be educated well, they could be competent for many jobs.

The school is divided into three campuses, with five four-story buildings, a large playground, and two small playgrounds, covering an area of ​​more than 50,000 square meters. It is currently the largest building complex in Khajuraho.

Most of the current students are truncated children aged seven to twelve. Under Ronan's appeal, the people who trusted him very much happily sent their children to school, and after getting to know Ronan Under the policy and the staff's deception, they also have a little expectation for their children to go to school, hoping that their children can return from school and lead their families to live a good life.

Because most of the civilians can't read, the current lecturers in the school can only be nobles. Ronan recruited a lot of people from the collateral noble families with certain knowledge from all over the Northland to serve as teachers. They have conducted intensive training, and they also need to study with the students in the follow-up. After all, they are intellectuals, but most of these guys only know how to read and do some simple arithmetic.

They are responsible for teaching the lower grade students while studying, and their knowledge is enough for the time being to deal with the lower grade students. As for the older teachers who need more profound knowledge, they come from those who are already good at learning and teaching. Private tutors who teach children of noble families.

These private teachers are proficient in things like arithmetic, history, aristocratic studies, and essay studies. They will serve as the backbone, responsible for teaching the students in the second and lower first grades, and in charge of training other teachers. , When the first batch of students graduate in the future, Ronan will be able to select new teachers from the outstanding students who have graduated, and the teaching staff will not be so tense and lacking.

Students start to classify from the second half of the first grade, military class, craftsman class, and the class that focuses on learning and research. The military class is very simple. There are countless excellent knights and officers in Ronan's army who can serve as Instructor.

The source of teachers for craftsmen is also very simple, although because of the previous model, if you want to become a craftsman, you have to be an apprentice to an old craftsman for several years to learn a little craft, and it takes decades to open a shop alone and become a new one. The number of craftsmen has not been high because of the masters. After all, families with little ability can’t afford a child to be an apprentice for several years. Without a little income, they can’t help the family. Most of the children in the peasant family still go to the field early. work.

But this is just a matter of Ronan's words. Ronan asked those craftsmen to be teachers. Would they dare to say a word? Even if he is not afraid of losing his head, he will not be able to stop living in the future. Therefore, even though the craftsmen are 11 million unwilling to recruit Ronan, they still have to obediently come to Ronan's school to teach students. Their original apprentices directly entered the school and became the first batch of artisan students.
