I engaged in modernization in ancient times

Zhao Jingcheng is so interested in their new course now.

"What is mathematics?"

"Isn't it very fun? Just like the chess we play now."

Nan, who was next to him, shook his head at a glance.

Seeing that you are all bald, he suddenly felt that Zhao Jingcheng and his group of students might like to go back to the Guozijian for classes soon.

Zhao Jingcheng: "What?"

Mo Shaoheng said to Nan Yi, "Show them your old textbooks."

Nan Yi ran to fetch out his small medicine box.

There were all kinds of mess in the box, and finally three books were found at the bottom of the box, "This is my primary school textbook, and I will rely on you to inherit the teacher's special skill in the future."

He is already bald, and it is enough for him to be a doctor. Every time the young teacher gives him mathematics, physics and chemistry, he can't get full marks. A genius like him is simply a failure.

A group of students gathered around the textbook, reading it over and over again. They couldn't understand the symbols inside.

"Nan Yi, aren't you a Taoist priest? Why do you still need to learn this?"

Nan Yi: "..."

Hey, he is going to teach these primary school students today, and those who wear Taoist robes may not be Taoist priests.

Mo Shaoheng looked amused, and said, "I'll have someone take the textbook to be printed."

"We must study hard in the future."

Zhao Jingcheng and others took three books and asked Nan Yi for advice, "What kind of knowledge is this?"

Nan Yi had an inscrutable look on his face, "Nature is a powerful knowledge, it contains the mysteries of heaven and earth, the origin of all things..."

A group of students opened their mouths and stuffed eggs, "That's...that's amazing, we have to study hard."

After dismissing a group of students, Mo Shaoheng thought now that there are two things to do.

First, he now has a lot of farmland, and rice is planted in the farmland.

Paddy fields are scarce, and if rice is only grown, it is somewhat underutilized.

For example, after the rice harvest, it has to be empty all the time.

Mo Shaoheng thought for a while, and under the current conditions, he could raise some snails after the rice harvest.

Field snails have some impact on rice, mainly the seedlings that have not grown enough.

Therefore, before rice transplanting, it is necessary to salvage all the large snails in the field. The small ones have little influence. When they grow up, the rice is almost mature and will not be affected by them.

As long as the breeding period is staggered, symbiosis can be achieved.

However, there are few snails in Beiliang. If you want to breed them, you can buy small snails everywhere.

In the future, fried snails are also a very good delicacy.

There are also snail noodles. The snail noodles sold by others do not have snails, but he can have them.

It is also good to have one more edible meat.

Second, now that the canal is already in operation, Mo Shaoheng has long thought that the plan to raise fish in the canal can also start.

The fish products sold in Niaoyi Lane and other franchised streets, whether it is fresh fish dishes or salted fish, are always out of stock.

This is because the fish are all purchased outside, and the other party is basically raised on a small scale.

Considering the cost and other issues, it is impossible to buy from places that are too far away, so the supply of fish is always in short supply.

Of course, the most important of the two things is to raise fish. Raising snails means raising them for fun. Although they are delicious, snails have little meat, which does not play a big role in improving people's livelihood. It is just an incidental thing to improve the utilization of farmland.

Mo Shaoheng made arrangements.

The first is to let people go to various places to collect snail species.

The steward who was called: "..."

The smell of snails is fishy, ​​even more fishy than pork in the past, and there is not much meat. I heard that snails are indeed eaten in a small number of areas, but only a small number of people.

Is their son still specialized in raising snails?

Mo Shaoheng said a few words, it was just for fun, and the manager was relieved.

If you want to keep them, let's keep them for fun. Their eldest son has the final say, and he took people to inquire about the news. He went to buy some snails in any area.

Then Mo Shaoheng started to prepare for raising fish in the canal.

His size may be relatively large.

Blocking a section of the canal is blocking, and he is blocking more. Anyway, the court now only uses the canal as irrigation. He does not need to pay the contract fee if he has a relationship, so he needs to raise more.

Mo Shaoheng went to find Zhao Di.

Zhao Di: "You want to raise fish in the canal?"

Although it seems to be good, other people raise fish in small fish ponds.

"The canal is so big, how will it be salvaged in the future?"

It is not as simple as a small fish pond. Fishing for fish in the canal is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Mo Shaoheng said, "Of course I have a solution."

Zhao Di thought for a while, then nodded, "As long as it doesn't damage the canal and affect irrigation, it should be fine if you tell the saint in private."

"How many are you going to raise?"

Mo Shaoheng replied, "Draw the net directly at Zhixian County. The canal from Zhixian County to Liangjing is my fish farm."

Zhao Di thought he heard it wrong, because the route was too long, and the fish he raised ran around in such a long section of the canal. When he wanted to fish, he probably didn't know where he went.

However, it's not a big deal, if Mo Shaoheng likes to make troubles, let him make troubles.

From Zhao Di's point of view, this time Mo Shaoheng was probably on a whim, and he lost interest when the fish he raised couldn't be salvaged.

However, when Mo Shaoheng transferred the account to the ledger, Zhao Di was in so much pain.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a joke, does it?

In fact, it is mainly the money to buy fish species. A small fish is estimated to be the size of a small willow leaf, so the price is naturally not expensive.

But... I can't bear to buy too much.

There are two remaining difficulties.

The first is the nets blocking the canals. Because there are few rivers in Beiliang, the utilization rate of fishing nets is very low.

Mo Shaoheng is not sure, there is a ready-made net that can be used to block the canal.

However, there must be Nanli, there are many rivers in Nanli, and the manufacturing process of fishing nets is very developed.

So this is not too big of a problem. Mo Shaoheng is going to ask the old craftsman and captain of the merchant ship. They have dealt with water all their lives and they are from Nanli. They should know where to buy a net with this effect. arrive.

Just in time to buy fish fry, people went to buy fishing nets.

The fish fry purchased at the beginning can actually be poured directly into the downstream river, because the blocking distance is too far, and the small fish fry cannot swim such a long distance.

The second problem is the problem of fish feed.

Fish also need to eat to grow their bodies.

Because the canal is newly dug, there are actually not enough bacteria in it for fish to eat.

And Mo Shaoheng just planted a lot of soybeans this year.

After the soybean oil is pressed, the soybean powder is filtered out, and the rest is soybean dregs.

The bean dregs are now being fed to the chickens and ducks on the ranch.

This year's bean dregs are estimated to be a bit excessive, which is just used to feed fish.

Moreover, Mo Shaoheng plans to raise some ducks and geese beside the canal.

Ducks and geese eat okara, which they excrete, and fish feed on their excrement.

It sounds gross, but it's a recirculation farming technique at its best.

In some farms, chicken sheds and duck sheds are built above the ponds, and fish are raised in the ponds below.

Mo Shaoheng's canal is relatively large, and instead of having dirty water like these farms, it is a more natural and organic ecological farming.

After finalizing the problem, Mo Shaoheng began to get busy.

Zhao Jingcheng and other students, whose textbooks haven't been printed yet, also follow Mo Shaoheng around all day.

Waiting to see the little snail falling into the farmland, I was so surprised there.

"Can snails be farmed?"

"These snails are too small."

Mo Shaoheng said, "Snails eat bacteria and then excrete them, transforming the bacteria into the fertility that rice needs, which is good for rice."

"Of course, snails will also eat the roots, stems and leaves of rice, so they have to wait until the roots of the rice are deeply embedded in the mud before they can lay snails."

"Farmlands that have just been reclaimed are too monotonous in ecology, and they are also needed to enrich the ecology of farmland."

"If the snails are not salvaged for a long time, too many snails will become a disaster to the farmland."

After finishing speaking, a group of students laughed, "In our Beiliang, they will definitely not be a harm to the farmland."

"They will all be eaten by us."

Mo Shaoheng: "..."

It seems to make sense.

It is estimated that after Mo Shaoheng figured out how to eat fried snails, he would have to worry about whether they would become extinct.

Once a kind of delicacy that ordinary people can make, once it rises, especially when the meat in Beiliang is not abundant, the result can be imagined.

Zhao Jingcheng and the others were still playing with the small screws, "It looks pretty nice."

Small snails, never noticed before.

The fun of young people is often like this, even the most ordinary things can become a source of interest in their hands.

It is more convenient to raise snails, you only need to pour the purchased snail seeds into the field.

When Mo Shaoheng took Zhao Jingcheng to release the fry.

Zhao Jingcheng was stunned.

Looking at the small fish brought back by the fish cart, one cart after another was poured into the river, "This..."

Could it be that meat buns beat dogs and dump them into the canal, and they can still be fished back?

Even Nan Yi, who lives in Nanli, where the fishery is relatively developed, blinked his eyes. He had never seen such a fish farm.

Once poured into the river, after a while, the little fish disappeared.

Everyone: "..."

He couldn't help but look at Mo Shaoheng.

Mo Shaoheng was inserting the finished wooden sign on the side of the canal, and the wooden sign said, "Without permission, you are not allowed to salvage fish from the river without permission, and offenders will be fined."

Everyone: "..."

Still think about whether the fish can be salvaged, even thinking about someone coming to steal the fish.

Mo Shaoheng looked at a group of puzzled eyes and said, "Even in Nanli, although the fishery industry is developed, it is actually small-scale farming, and to maximize economic benefits, both agriculture and breeding require large-scale. "

"It's enough to raise such a carload of fry in a fishpond. When the fish are fattening up, the whole fishpond will look full of fish, so it's easy to catch."

"But...we have blocked such a long section of the canal, so we naturally need more fish fry, but the area is too large, so when we dump the fish fry, it looks like releasing them."

The fundamental principle is still the problem of fish capacity per unit area.

A group of students: "..."

Although this is the truth, but...

It really feels like beating a dog with meat buns.

Mo Shaoheng kept buying fry, and the money was spent like water.

As for the fishing nets blocking the canal, the old craftsman solved it directly, and there is no need to go to Nanli to buy them. The old craftsman knows a method of making fishing nets, which can meet Mo Shaoheng's requirements and can withstand the long-term infiltration of river water. .

The production of fishing nets can be traced back to the period of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors. Indeed, the production process is relatively advanced and perfect.

Wait for the fishing net to be made.

Mo Shaoheng took a look and found that the thickness was enough to stop the school of fish.

Then I went to Zhixian County, and tied stones to the bottom of the fishing net to facilitate sinking.

Then he blocked the river and pulled a rope.

After all, it is a canal with a limited width, not a river like the Ji River that is too wide to pull a rope.

The upper end of the fishing net is tied to the rope, and then spans the entire canal.

Looking around, the canal was blocked by such a huge net.

"In the future, the section of the canal behind this net will be our fishing ground."

All... can't see the end.

The scale is really big.

Fish farming, of course, cannot be done by pouring fry into it.

Mo Shaoheng had to insert a wooden sign at intervals, which was the wooden sign that said, fine for illegal salvage.

The names of Yanwangfu and Zhenbeiwangfu are left on it.

In an era of distinct classes, such a brand has a stronger warning effect than the modern power grid.

At least ordinary people should not dare to salvage it privately at the risk of having their legs broken. As for the nobles, let’s not talk about whether they dare to offend Yan Wangfu and Zhenbei Wangfu. matter.

Mo Shaoheng arranged for people to stay behind the fishing net.

People continue to buy fry every day.

After a period of time, when the fish fry are almost purchased, people can be arranged to put bean dregs into the canal as feed every day on time.

As for the ducks raised by the canal, just go to the ranch and get some ducklings back. Big geese need to go to various places to buy them.

Fish is Mo Shaoheng's industry, because he may not be able to persuade other people to raise fish like him, but ducks and geese belong to the ranch business and are within the scope of joint management, which is also dwarfed by Mo Shaoheng's pocket , relieved some of the stress.

It may seem troublesome, but it can be done bit by bit.

Fish farming requires manpower, so Mo Shaoheng had to recruit some more people. Apart from feeding the fish, these people probably patrol the river, and patrolling for others to steal fish.

This busy work, directly to the summer.

Flocks of ducklings by the river and big geese that have just grown their feathers have become another scenery outside Liangjing.

The people of Liangjing looked at these ducks and geese when they walked around the canal, and they were very happy.

"Mo Shaoheng bought so many fry and sprinkled so much bean dregs every day, why didn't he see even a single fish in the river?"

"No, shouldn't he run away?"

Mo Shaoheng: "..."

The river is so deep, where it is so easy to see fish.

Besides, although fish eat bean dregs, they must grow much faster than natural growth, but they haven't been raised for long, so they can see big fish so soon.

Amidst all the discussions among the crowd, Mo Shaoheng had a very happy day, and now he likes to run to the canal even if he has nothing to do.

It's all the money he spilled into it.

As long as there are no large-scale dead fish, he feels that the fish are still at the bottom of the river.

In fact, it didn't take long before the effect...was visible to the naked eye.

First, when feeding fish, when holding a pot of bean dregs and spilling bean dregs into the river.

Schools of fish began to appear, vying for the food spilled into the river.

The canal, which was originally calm, suddenly boiled.

It's like frying a pan.

People who watch the excitement are like frying pans.

"God, so many fish."

Never seen such a large number of fish.

The scene was truly spectacular.

Friends who have fished in fish reservoirs probably can feel what this scene is like.

Second, in the morning and evening, fish schools will also surface due to changes in the oxygen at the bottom of the water.

Eyes full of fish, just like the army.

It attracted a lot of people to watch.

Mo Shaoheng also went to see it, it was indeed spectacular.

The news also spread in Liangjing City.

Now, in addition to the large expanse of pagoda tree forests outside Liangjing City, the spectacle of fish schools in the canal has been added.

The double view of Liangjing, whether it is a local or a foreigner, is a must-see.

Mo Shaoheng is happy now, it's all money.

If you have nothing to do, you will take Zhao Di to see their property.

Zhao Di: "..."

He seems to have become richer now, thinking that when the fish can be salvaged, he may be able to repay the money he borrowed from the court.

However, just how it feels...

After working for so long, just to offset the debt?

In fact, he has naturally seen the benefits. After paying back the money from the court, it will be all profits in the future.

Moreover... It also provides things for the people to do, so that the quality of life of the people in Liangjing is constantly improving.

Think about it, three years ago, the people of Liangjing could not afford to eat meat, but now, it should be no problem to eat pork every now and then. It can stew chicken and duck.

Now... it won't be long before they can even eat high-consumption fish.

The changes in Liangjing in the past three years are really too great. If you don't pay attention, you may not feel it, but if you pay attention, you can tell a little bit about this change.

Liangjing seemed to be constantly glowing with glory.

The weather in Beiliang is getting hotter every day, and the pagoda trees outside the city are full of pagoda trees.

I can often see people knocking off a bunch or two of Sophora japonica flowers and taking them back to cook porridge.

Sophora porridge was used to relieve victims of disasters, but the taste is actually very good.

Especially after cooling, it is ice-cold and has a unique floral fragrance.

It has become the people of Liangjing, a kind of food to cool off the summer heat in leisure time.

In addition, the third scene of Liangjing also appeared.

Outside Liangjing City, there are several hills around.

In the past, these hills were covered with weeds. Because of the terrain, even if there were canals, it was not convenient for irrigation, so the imperial court did not think about cultivating them.

But this year is different. The mountain that should have been covered with wild grass is now full of wild flowers.

The wild flowers everywhere turned several hills into a sea of ​​flowers.

beautiful.

At the beginning, the common people didn't realize it until the summer wind blows, and the flowers on several hilltops are blown open, and the fragrance of flowers is blown into the city of Liangjing.

Do you know how beautiful that picture is?

Just like the flower fields planted in modern parks, there is an endless stream of people visiting the park every season.

So when the sea of ​​flowers outside the city appeared, the entire Liangjing was a sensation.

"what happened?"

"Wildflowers all over the mountains."

Wonders never seen before.

But soon, someone realized, "Didn't Mo Shaoheng buy a lot of wildflower seeds at the gate of the city last year?"

"I heard that when spring begins, people sprinkle it on the surrounding hills."

"God, Mo Shaoheng planted it."

A sea of ​​flowers, bees flying.

Students who keep bees at home have gained a lot recently.

An airtight suit was specially made for harvesting honey.

Bring a jar every now and then, and share it with other students who haven't raised honey yet.

It is so beautiful that the people of Liangjing call the sea of ​​flowers formed by these hills the third scene outside Liangjing.

The first scene, Huai Lin.

The second scene, the school of fish in the canal.

The third scene, the sea of ​​flowers on the top of the mountain.

Mo Shaoheng didn't even hold back, taking advantage of Zhao Di's free time, he took a group of people to have a picnic.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain, and people walked up to the top of the mountain.

Spread a piece of cloth among the flowers, put the food on it, and sit cross-legged on it, enjoying the beautiful scenery and eating delicious food.

The scenery of the world, the beautiful nature, it feels so healing.

Of course, this was Mo Shaoheng, and Nan Yi and Zhao Jingcheng had already rolled into a ball among the flowers, and the laughter spread everywhere with the wind.

"It's too much fun."

"It's really beautiful here."

Every time they come out with their teacher, they feel full of energy, and they are all bubbling with joy, why is that?

Anyway, I couldn't help rolling on the ground, laughing haha.

Even Zhao Yuning, the shyest, had a mouthful of white teeth that couldn't be closed no matter what.

Zhao Di: "..."

He was also a little dazed, and it turned out that life can still be like this.

In addition to intrigue, in addition to fighting for power and profit, it turns out that there are such beautiful things.

He couldn't help but glanced at Mo Shaoheng who was comfortably smelling a wild flower.

If there was no Mo Shaoheng in his life, maybe he would have lived his life in such a gloomy way.

Mo Shaoheng brought him too many surprises and surprises, as well as...the seemingly ordinary, but indescribably beautiful.

Zhao Jingcheng has already rolled grass clippings all over his body, "It would be great if we could do this forever."

The other students, including Nan Yi, were nodding.

Especially Nan Yi, his experience is really rich, if he hadn't been influenced by Mo Shaoheng since he was a child, he can see it very openly, and now he doesn't know how depressed and lost he is.

Mo Shaoheng said, "As long as you maintain a good attitude, every day will be like spring."

Happiness is actually very simple, with less desire and unrealistic attachment, it will be much easier to be happy.

I don't know if Nan Yiwai understood, he was rolling into a ball with other students.

Zhao Di was extremely relaxed today, which was really rare for him.

When you are tired from playing, you will form a circle, drink the drinks you brought, and chat leisurely.

Talk about anything, feel free.

However, when Mo Shaoheng said, "When these wild flowers grow and mature, they will have to be harvested. I am going to refine the flower essence and extract the pigment."

"Flower essences can be used to make perfume, etc., and pigments can be used to dye cloth."

As a result, a group of students howled.

I was stunned not to let the wild flowers all over the mountain be cut.

Mo Shaoheng smiled.

Even if he doesn't allow people to harvest it, it will be wasted once the season is over.

Played happily all day.

When we went back, the sunset was almost setting.

But at the gate of the city, there was a little surprise.

There is an endless stream of carriages, too many.

Mo Shaoheng pushed open the window and took a look.

Nan Yi also let out a "huh", "These people don't look like Beiliang clothing?"

Mo Shaoheng's eyes lit up, it was a caravan, a caravan from various countries.

The mission sent by the imperial court last year finally brought back the caravans from various countries.The people in the caravan outside were still a little dazed. Didn't they say that Liangjing in Beiliang was poor and dilapidated, impoverished, and the folk customs were tough?

So what did they see?

The fifth prince Zhao Yanqiu, as the person in charge of the caravan affairs this time, said to the caravans from various countries waiting to enter the city, "Welcome to the Night City!"

Mo Shaoheng's eyes sparkled, "The caravan is here, so... the sugar and wine fair can begin."

Now that he has sugar, he still needs wine. Of course, wine needs grain, which is more troublesome, because the imperial court will not allow grain to be used for other purposes.

The imperial court is probably very happy now, because the imperial court wants to sell silk and salt.

Mo Shaoheng thought to himself, a large sugar and wine fair is a must.
