Reborn Just To Be a Big Shot Family Freeloader
Chapter 89: Isn't it worth the effort to start from scratch?
Chapter 89 Isn't it worth the effort to start from scratch?
If there is the endorsement of the court, the promotion of agricultural tools will undoubtedly be faster.
Moreover, for the large-scale promotion of this new agricultural tool, the administrative departments at all levels will definitely give certain preferential terms to benefit the people. In this way, the people benefit. For the court, by improving production efficiency, more wasteland can be reclaimed. Even if each independent family has only one share of land, and a huge empire, the annual increase in food production is extremely impressive.
Daxia has been established for hundreds of years, and it is still very strict in controlling the expansion of the powerful enclosure. The land of the powerful is mostly given by the imperial court. Once the rich and powerful are found to be illegally occupying land, they will lose their lives if they are serious. The strictness of Daxia's laws is almost comparable to Daqin's history in Qixun's previous life.
Under such strict control of land policy, unless there is a very serious natural disaster and the local yamen is ineffective in treating it, there will rarely be a large area of refugees fleeing, and the people of each state can live relatively peacefully. This is the strength of the empire. foundation.
Unfortunately, if you can live in peace, you may not be able to work happily.
The low productivity made farming difficult.
The life of a peasant is really hard.
Even in Yanjia Village, where there are few people dying of starvation, there are not many people who have surplus food.
Thinking about the previous life, not only do the farmers of the flower family not have to pay agricultural taxes, the state guarantees the arable land, and the farmers who cultivate the land also receive various agricultural subsidies, and except for some small private plots that are not suitable for machinery to enter the land, the common people plant Except for some vegetables for their own consumption, almost all the fields where grain is grown are mechanically cultivated.
Qixun thought about his ancestral hometown he visited once in his previous life, the small Hui-style villas in the countryside with neat and beautiful white walls and grey tiles, and thought, if one day, the people of Daxia can also live like that. Then this world, what a world worth nostalgic.
The dream is too far away, almost out of reach, but starting from scratch, isn't it worth the effort?
Nanhiro always wants to do something.
So when she thinks of farm tools, she has a sense of urgency.
It's not that she doesn't know. Just by improving some production tools, she may not be able to change much. What can really improve the lives of the people is the top-down policy of benefiting the people, but these are not under her control.
She can only do what she can.
That's why he was disappointed that King Yu ignored the plough.
She discovered that Daxia's emphasis on agricultural production was undoubtedly weaker than the emphasis on military affairs.
Those in power naturally know that agriculture is the foundation of the country, otherwise there would be no policy of strictly prohibiting land enclosures. However, the imperial court only thought of ways to decree and control it from the top, but could not come up with a specific way to increase productivity and increase grain output downstream.
Actually, she completely misunderstood Xin Bujiang.
Xin Bujiang didn't grow up in that kind of greenhouse. He had never seen the outside world, and only knew that the prince who enjoyed the royal wealth and honor. Of course, he could see the role of the new plow, but he was in the army and could not reach out to the civil affairs.
The promotion of a new type of plough is a big thing.
Anything related to agriculture is not trivial for people of their status.
He didn't mention it because he knew that since Qixun wanted to make this kind of thing, he would definitely try it in Yanjia Village. If the effect is good, it will naturally spread from Yanjia Village to the surrounding area. , this kind of thing that can brush political achievements will not be let go.
As far as he knows, the magistrate of Linjiang is not a straw bag.
That is Li Xingjian, the youngest son of the Li family in the capital of Qi Guogong's mansion. In his early twenties, he was admitted to the jinshi examination. He stayed in the Hanlin Academy for three years, and then took a round in the Sixth Division before he was released to experience. Once he made some political achievements, at least one official third-rank civil official would be indispensable in the future.
He has been in office in Linjiang for more than three years, and Linjiang County has been managed fairly well. If he is in office for another three years, if his political performance is not bad, he should be promoted.
The prince of the Duke of Qi's mansion is his direct elder brother, and he has the support of the Duke of Qi. Jumping one or two levels of promotion is not unusual for a son of a noble family like him.
There is such an opportunity to pick up cheap political achievements. If you don’t believe it, Li Xingjian will let it go.
That's why he didn't mention the new plow.
"Didn't you say that farming is important, and a good plow can help a lot? So after I saw the drawing, I did it when I had nothing to do. Ready-made wood, according to your drawing size, is quite simple. I will polish it tomorrow. It can be installed with one click, but the iron rake you marked on it can only be customized at the county seat."
Speaking of this, Brother Monkey is quite regretful: "I knew earlier that I had coaxed the old man Taishang Laojun and learned from him the skill of refining alchemy. Now I don't have to do anything and run to the blacksmith shop, I can do it. Yes."
But thinking about those 9-turn golden pills that he stole a lot, Brother Monkey suspects that Taishang Laojun, the old man, is probably not good at coaxing him.
Qixun comforted her monkey brother: "Don't be afraid, the second brother really wants to learn, although I am not good at refining, but I still know some forging techniques. In the future, we have the conditions, let's try it ourselves."
It was the monkey brother who built the plough, so Qixun took a pen and paper from the Westinghouse and started to draw the threshing machine.
While working next to Brother Monkey, he reminded her: "Didn't you say you want to make a carriage? If you have time, draw the drawings first. Recently, I am in a hurry to do it well, and I have to paint it. Are you in a hurry?"
"Okay, I'll draw it today."
When it comes to donkey carts, your own travel tools, you have to make them look low-key on the outside, but luxurious on the inside.
For a car to ride comfortably, shock absorption is a must.
It reminded her that there must be a spring.
The spring is just a simple, curved one. In fact, the requirements for materials and craftsmanship, the current forging technology may not be able to meet.
I hope the old masters of the two blacksmith shops that I often go to are more powerful.
On a winter afternoon, the sun is very good. The Yan family's mother and son are busy with each other. Qixun and Brother Monkey stay in the Westinghouse. Lingsu dispenses medicine in the main room. Su felt that Xiaoxun reminded her about making pills, and it was worth a try.
However, the medicinal materials required for some prescriptions are precious. If you want to sell them to ordinary people, the cost is too high, and you have to replace them with common medicinal materials with similar medicinal properties.
She can only try the prescription first, and if the effect is good, she can finally decide on the prescription.
Gongyu Mingxi was sitting cross-legged on the kang, with pen and ink on the kang table, sorting out some ancient books and poems from previous lives.
It would be a pity if those splendid cultures were not passed down.
Even those Wen Dao and Da Xian who disappeared in the long river of history did not exist in this time and space.
