Chapter 44 Ke Qing’s Thoughts [Please read]

"Mr. Xu, sit down quickly!" Qin Zhong hurriedly asked Xu Yuanyi to sit down and said hurriedly: "I might have been seen by someone just now. If it gets out, Mr. Xu's reputation will be ruined. Let's not talk about this! I'll go out and explain.

Mr. Xu, just let go of my sleeve, and I don’t know why I guessed it after tearing it off.”

Qin Zhong tugged twice and found that Xu Yuanyi was quite strong and his sleeves were not pulled out.

Xu Yuanyi ignored those, and only cared about the issues he cared about. "Tell the truth, do more convenient breeding and selection methods really exist?"

"Still under testing!" Qin Zhong replied.

Xu Yuanyi shook his head in disbelief.

Qin Zhong saw that he was so persistent and his sleeves were pulled again, so he had no choice but to sit down.

I was also curious about what official position Xu Yuanyi held now, and I was going to recommend an official to myself.

"Does Mr. Xu hold any official position in the Ministry of Household Affairs?"

"Only old people resign from office. If Mr. Jing wishes to become an official, he will definitely recommend him." Xu Yuanyi said firmly.

I want to be an official! But I don’t want to be an official who takes care of things. I just want the privilege of being an official.

Qin Zhong has a spirit of dedication, but not much.

The more important purpose is to gain more favorability and longevity.

If he wakes up earlier than a chicken every day, goes to bed later than a dog, and is busy with official duties all day long, he won't even do it for the emperor! It's better to live a carefree life among the flowers.

Qin Zhong rolled his eyes and said calmly: "It's not that I don't want to believe Mr. Xu's words, but it's just that there is no proof, and who can know what will happen in the future. Just like that method, no one knows the result without testing. If so

If Xu Laozhen recommends an uncertain method, it will only cause laughter."

Xu Yuanyi lowered his head and thought, he was indeed too anxious!

No wonder he was acting like that that day.

He was thinking about the method of breeding and selecting seeds, and he lowered his head and sighed.

"How good is this!"

After hearing this, Qin Zhong gave him some advice. "Why don't you, Mr. Xu, test the artificial pollination method first and get the results? If you find it useful, you can report it to the court?!"

Xu Yuanyi felt pity that he didn't have enough time. "It's still the first month of the year, how can we test it!"

"I'm used to looking at greenhouse trees and seeing flowers in bathhouses. Mr. Xu has even forgotten the art of flowers in the bathroom?" Qin Zhong pursed his lips, wondering if Xu Yuanyi was old and confused.

"Didn't Mr. Xu say that he once planted rice with the Supreme Emperor in the Rehe Palace? I guess he used the hall flower technique a lot, right?"

Xu Yuanyi smiled bitterly and said: "The art of flowering in the hall requires warm soup water, or building a firehouse on the ground to use the heat in the hall to urge the flowers. These methods cost as much as running water, and can only be made by the royal garden and the Xia family of the emperor Shang.

out."

Xu Yuanyi is right.

It is written in an ancient poem that "the inner garden is divided into warm soup and water, and the melons are already in mid-February." The cost of such melons is too high, and how many people can afford to eat them and grow them.

A greenhouse that can grow fruits is not easy to build, and it will cost a lot of money.

And the hot springs near Shenjing City are basically occupied by the royal family.

If it can be grown in a greenhouse without spending a few dollars, people all over the world can eat vegetables such as cucumbers and lettuce during this season.

Nowadays, in addition to the imperial gardens and imperial mansions that are specially used for the Forbidden City, only those like the Xia family of Huangshang and Shang who are specially used for the princes and nobles in the sacred city, and whose wool comes from the sheep, can afford to build large-scale greenhouses.

Qin Zhong remembered that there were three main types of greenhouse cultivation at this time:

The first type is a cellar-type greenhouse.

It is a relatively simple cellar without any heating facilities. The heat required for the growth of vegetable plants can only be released by the insulation performance of the cellar itself and by placing some horse manure inside. This method is relatively cost-effective.

Low, easy to operate, but not very effective.

The second type is a cellar fire-heated greenhouse.

The greenhouse setup is relatively complex. It not only has a seedbed, but also a fire pit under the seedbed, where a fire can be burned to increase the temperature.

The third method is a fire-heated greenhouse with earth walls and earth windows.

The seedbed and fire pit in this greenhouse have the same purpose as in the second method, but the difference is that this method only builds earth walls on the east, west and north sides to block the wind, while it is sloped on the south side.

painted paper windows.

The third method can not only change the disadvantage that the cellar cannot be exposed to sunlight, but also can increase the temperature by burning fire. Compared with the previous methods, it is the most advanced greenhouse.

The basic principle is the same as that of greenhouse cultivation in later generations, except that the light transmittance and thermal insulation properties of paint paper are not as good as those of later generations of composite films and composite glass.

Qin Zhong thought for a while and said: "For testing alone, we only need to build two greenhouses with vertical walls and windows for heating, and plant dozens of corn plants in each of the two greenhouses for experiment and control."

After hearing this, Xu Yuanyi clapped his thighs excitedly.

But Qin Zhong stopped him and said: "When Mr. Xu has verified the effect of artificial pollination, I will teach you another breeding method."

"really?!"

[Xu Yuanyi's favorability +10, Yangshou increased by 10 days (current favorability: 18)]

Qin Zhong listened to the prompts in his mind, and the smile on his lips became more obvious.

It's impossible to teach directly. You have to make a big name with that thing. Not only do you have to attract a lot of favorability, but you also have to see if you can actually get an official position or other rewards.

If the Qin family had such a small amount of money to build a greenhouse, they would probably have to spend a lot of money on it.

What a great thing it is now that someone is helping you conduct experiments. You don’t have to spend any money yourself, and you can also earn yourself a reputation.

Qin Zhong replied with great certainty, "How dare you lie? Of course you will take it seriously!"

Xu Yuanyi listened and wanted to salute again.

Qin Zhong stopped again, but said: "Mr. Xu, it's time to go back and prepare. In a few days, it will be the rainy season. Don't wait until the Grain Rain Festival, when the greenhouse will become a decoration."

"Yeah!"

Xu Yuanyi said and was about to leave in a hurry.

Qin Zhong stood up to see him off.

When the two of them left the free school, they saw the Xu family's carriage parked on the back street of Ningrong.

When Xu Yuanyi arrived at the carriage, he suddenly paused and turned around to stop Qin Zhong. He folded his hands and bowed slightly, making a heavy salute.

Qin Zhong was startled and hurriedly handed over his hand.

A series of voices sounded in my mind:

[Jia Dairu’s favorability +5, Yangshou increased by 5 days (current favorability: 15)]

[Jialan’s favorability +5, Yangshou increased by 5 days (current favorability: 14)]

[Jia Baoyu’s favorability +1, Yangshou increased by 1 day (current favorability: 34)]

…

Qin Zhong looked back and saw that it was already midnight and the students were bidding farewell to Jia Dairu one after another and preparing to go home.

Unexpectedly, I happened to see Xu Yuanyi paying a heavy tribute to Qin Zhong.

"Qing Jing is so powerful, he can make those people worship him!" Jia Baoyu came forward excitedly.

Qin Zhong was stunned and asked, "Do you know him?"

"Although I don't know him, one look at his clothes and the entourage around him shows that he is a big official." Jia Baoyu sighed. When he looked at Qin Zhong again, he felt as if he were looking up at a mountain, and his admiration was renewed.

Qin Zhong was also amazed by Baoyu's fierce eyes. He was indeed not as good as Baoyu in distinguishing the identity of others.

But he frowned secretly, why did he forget to ask what official position Xu Yuanyi held, and the official rank of Uncle Chen and Fifth Master Chen. He was actually fooled by Xu Yuanyi. He will definitely ask clearly next time.

Next to him, Jia Lan, who was only eight years old, looked at Qin Zhong with the most admiration.

Those who love the strong also admire the strong.

Jia Lan often heard his mother Li talk about his father Jia Zhu's past. He knew that his father was a genius who entered school at the age of fourteen, and he also wanted to be like his father Jia Zhu who entered school at a young age. Recently, he heard some rumors about Qin Zhong, and he didn't realize it.

How amazing it is, I didn't expect that today I would listen to and watch Qin Zhong, who was not yet thirteen years old, be able to make officials worship him and even want to worship him as his teacher.

He walked forward slowly. He didn't mean to eavesdrop before, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to address Qin Zhong.

Brother Shi? Brother Jingqing? Uncle Shi?

The relationship is so messed up!

Jia Lan didn't know how to name Qin Zhong to satisfy him.

I had no choice but to omit the salutation and lowered my head and said, "I went over there to find the master of the school. I didn't mean to eavesdrop on you guys."

"It's okay!" Qin Zhong looked at Jia Lan, who was nearly half shorter than him, and put his arms around Jia Lan's shoulders like a son, and said, "I believe that Lang Ge'er is a person who will not talk nonsense to others."

[Jialan’s favorability +1, Yangshou increased by 1 day]

…

At the Qin family in Qinghe Town, Qin Keqing has been thinking a lot these days. She is worried about whether Qin Zhong is living well in the Jia family, whether he gets along well with others, and whether he has been wronged outside.

On the one hand, he was concerned about whether Qin Zhong's studies were going well; on the other hand, he secretly missed him.

On this day, the twenty-sixth day of the first lunar month, Qin Zhong agreed on a day to return home.

Qin Keqing had just passed noon, and from time to time he asked Baozhu to go east to see if Qin Zhong was back.

Baozhu was a year or two younger than Ruizhu, but he was still a bit lively. He just smiled and said: "The uncle came back from school and had an afternoon meal at Rongguo Mansion. He had to arrive after dark anyway. It's okay for the young lady to be lovesick and anxious at home.

use."

In front of the dressing table, Qin Keqing, who was fiddling with the hairpin on his head, couldn't help but blush, and just used the hairpin to scare Baozhu.

"Look, I won't stab you..."
