Chapter 18: Three Fat Soils (Part 2)

"Hu Xingtou, just read some books and learn some arithmetic. In the future, this Zhuangzi and the workshop will let you do the business." Song Jiu said.

If it were ordinary people, Song Jiu was really worried. If he was relieved, he could not intimidate others. But Hu was good at studying, but Boss Hu didn't like studying and would definitely not be able to take care of the village and workshop. Even if he was in charge, the accounts would be a mess.

"Are you in charge?"

"The victims are here, and the pier will be completed soon next spring. Can you still be the best place for a coolie in the river?"

"How much is the salary of the manager?"

"Aren't you going to do a department? The department also talks about salary?"

"The master also paid money and money, otherwise the army would be able to work hard."

"Who asked you to work hard? I left forty students. Now I help me and study. I give them two ounces of salary every month, but the next year will be four ounces, eight ounces of money, and thirty-two ounces of money, and even more than two or three times according to the benefits. How much salary will I pay for the manager?"

Now Boss Hu is also paid, but the normal salary of a coolie is not high.

"Thirty-two silks," Boss Hu shivered.

It turned out that the ten people who took the coolie to share the money was only a dozen yuan, which made Boss Hu feel extremely ashamed, which was more than doubled. However, letting him study and learn arithmetic was no less than letting him work hard. He scratched his head, and after a while, he said, "I will fight for my life."

When Song Jiu saw him frowning when he heard about reading, he couldn't help but feel funny and said, "Come here, make this ridge and make some cucumbers, gourds, gourds, leeks, celery, sprouts, winter melons, and eggplant seeds. Come back, sow seeds on it first, and prepare to transfer them."

There were also many vegetable varieties in the Song Dynasty. For example, moss-hearted, dwarf yellow, big white head, small white head, yellow sprouts, mustard, lettuce, bulb (spinach), lettuce, bitter, ginger, onion, scallion, leek, garlic, small garlic, eggplant, sprouts, cucumber, winter melon, gourd, gourd, taro, yam, burdock, radish, nectar seed, water chestnut, fern, celery, various wild fungi, pineapple, mustard, lace, black sun, white bean, lettuce, yuntai, Yongcai, water jin, bitter, bitter coix, malan, shepherd, amaranth, quinoa, fern, white lily, perilla, parsley, celery, celery, celery, tangerine, carrot, taro, wolfberry, artemisia, cowpea, peas, broad beans, etc.

Leaf vegetables are the main ones, fruit vegetables and stem vegetables are the supplements. There are no pumpkins, Buddha hands, potatoes, tomatoes, and peppers, and some vegetables are in the Americas. Some vegetables are in Europe or Africa, but there is no big problem. If it is important, maybe corn and sweet potatoes are more important than these vegetables.

Most of them are spring vegetables. In summer, there are fewer types of vegetables and fewer in winter. Either some winter cherry (Chinese cabbage) and various green vegetables, or storage-resistant large radish.

The vegetables that Song Jiu mentioned can also be grown in Beijing, and most of them are relatively high-yield vegetables, and people often eat them.

However, Boss Hu was stunned and said, "Jiulang, do you understand?"

"What do you understand?"

"What kind of cucumbers are grown in this season!"

"I'm going to plant it at this time."

"You can't grow it, ask the vegetable farmers."

"Boss Hu, don't worry, I don't know the farming business. In Hunan, I have also deliberately watched many agricultural productions and fruits and vegetables. Do you really don't understand? There is a way to plant them, and the high yields are unimaginable."

Boss Hu believed and doubted it, but it was just some seed money. It didn’t matter.

That's possible.

Song Jiu returned to Hezhou and sent people to buy old clothes in the capital. He had already bought some old clothes and felt blankets. Some officials were distributing them to the victims. Han Chongyun came over and said, "This is a good method."

Once he arranged the victims for the court and did good deeds, he could not die. At that time, he couldn't explain it clearly. Then he looked at a few busy students and said, "They have the style of a general."

"Don't praise. Most of these people don't want to let go. Once you praise them, your Majesty issued an edict, I have to let go even if I don't give up." Song Jiu said. In fact, it is still young. With their assistance, officials can be organized and officials can be bold. In addition, they have no conflicts of interest with officials, and do not steal their official positions, nor do they rob their salaries and merits, and the two sides just form a good complement.

But if you really want to get it, it is impossible not to look for it for a few years.

Song Jiu called back a few students. The new students can only say that they are observing and are useless. They are still dozens of students who stayed, including experiments, accounting and management. Song Jiu’s monthly salary is not unfair, and the students are worth the price.

He first brought him to Henan, and Song Jiu drew a sketch. Several students used rulers to measure it, then calculated it on the roadside, and then returned to the laboratory.

The craftsmen started to burn the glass formally. The research was not successful yet, but it made a lot of progress. Song Jiu spent a lot of effort to make a few glass knives. It was too hard. In order to smash it, he deliberately created a hammer and an iron post.

Half of the diamonds given by Han Xizai were wasted. Then it became even more difficult to polish them. It took dozens of stagnant coins and dozens of manual labor to create these glass swords pitifully.

In fact, glass windows can also be blown out manually. Glass windows appeared in the late Song Dynasty, but this kind of blowing will inevitably produce a lot of burrs, and just a polishing will undoubtedly increase the cost. Therefore, it is also written in some poems of the Song Dynasty, and it does not appear many times, and it is rare. Song Jiu doesn't know about it.

Let craftsmen make glass formally.

Then he took it to the front yard, which could only be brought in by Song Jiu and twenty-one disciples.

At this time, the front yard was also expanded. Not only the front yard, but also the temporary houses built by craftsmen in the back yard, like a small village, could no longer be equipped to the teeth as before, and could only rely on soldiers to guard them. Shi Desheng and Ma Ermingzi were studying asbestos tiles with craftsmen, and Wang Kui and craftsmen were doing other experiments.

The courtyard is filled with ore sent from various states and counties.

Song Jiu found dozens of stones, smashed them, and took the powder to the later inspection for further confirmation. In fact, it is the beautiful soil, perlite, peat, and vermiculite mentioned in vegetable gardening and cultivation. The first two are easy to find, and the latter one is not very large and difficult to find. It is said that there is a mine belt, but it has not been mined, so it is unknown how much. Song Jiu was cautious about these three ores, but it is not called beautiful soil. But it is called Sanfei soil. Various fertilizers may be a dream, but with Sanfei soil and various fermented manure, it will greatly increase the yield of vegetables.

When it was getting dark, Song Jiu confirmed that it had nothing to do with knowledge. He also learned a lot of knowledge, but this involved all aspects, so where did he know and remember them one by one? I can only say that he would do it when he remembered it, and he would knock it down when he couldn't remember it. Then he wrote to several officials and mined a batch to send it to Hezhou. This can also be said to be related to the government, but Song Jiu still paid the relevant money and found Boss Hu again. Since the leveling began last year, the Hezhou project has not stopped. Sometimes it takes more labor, and sometimes it takes less labor.

It turned out that more than 100 families lived on the sandbank, and a few people entered the city in advance. Later, although the construction money was enough to support their families, some people felt it was hard, and some went to the city to live one after another. There were more than 50 families. The village was not within the construction scope and still lived in their original homes. But they had to move sooner or later, so Song Jiu found Boss Hu and built the house first in the workshop. Two floors, one family had three rooms on top and three rooms on top, and then turned into workshop workers.

But now it is not workers, but their vegetable growing skills.

It's just an off-season vegetable. The planting method is slightly different, but the others are the same.

Before Song Jiu came forward, he asked Boss Hu to come forward. If he agreed, he would sign and keep the workshop agreement strictly confidential. If he did not agree, he would not force him. There would be other things for them to do in the future. At this time, Hezhou gradually had the prototype of some large companies in later generations, but everything was not so standardized.

...

Various vegetable seedlings thrived under the three-fertile soil and manure. September is approaching and the sky gradually clears up, but the weather is gradually cooler. This temperature will not have much impact on the nursery, but the eldest sister said skeptically: "Xiao Jiu, winter is coming soon."

"Yes, it's just that winter is coming, so I asked the people to plant it, otherwise why would they spend that money?"

It’s not what Boss Hu thought, it’s some money for seeds. First of all, it’s greenhouses. Some people in the Han and Tang Dynasties used greenhouses to grow vegetables. However, the most important thing is lacking in the middle, photosynthesis. I don’t know what the vegetables will look like in which greenhouse without photosynthesis.

So Song Jiu used glass windows to replace plastic film, which is very costly. Now that the technology is gradually mature, one square foot of glass costs more than 20 cents, which means one square meter costs more than 200 cents. If the thickness increases, the cost will be higher.

Then bury organic fertilizer and three fertilizer soil, prepare straw mats and thick door curtains, and prepare charcoal braziers in the future. At the same time, a simple thermometer must be blown out, and a finely weaved floor curtains should be used to replace the plastic film. Wind barriers should be set up outdoors, cold ditches should be dug out, and slag should be filled in the ditch to keep the ditch dry so that the cold air should not affect the growth of plants in the greenhouse along the humid water.

However, it is still a rough science. If you talk about it in detail, the planting and carrying methods will be more detailed. Song Jiu is not as good as a vegetable farmers' expert, and the main cost is glass and the charcoal they will use in the future.

This elder sister understands.

There were also vegetable farmers in the Song Dynasty who were smart and could grow morning vegetables. Even if they could sell them for a sky-high price even if they could be sold for a month in the morning.

However, she was very suspicious. After all, the knowledge was here. Like a woman giving birth, there were eight pounds and nine pounds of children, and some only six or seven pounds, but she would not give birth to horses. Mules, there were winter crops and vegetables in winter, and summer crops and vegetables in summer. Can it be a month in advance, but can the season be reversed?

Yuping comforted, "Sister, look at what that is?"

The eldest sister turned her head and saw that there were various buildings on the river bank, and she stopped talking.

In fact, as the seedlings grew, many people came to see them and expressed their doubts. Song Jiu said again: "Sister, there is no way, I'm short of money."

Cui'er covered her mouth and laughed.

"Cui'er, don't disbelief. You have money, but that money is a stock money and cannot be misappropriated. Once it is misappropriated, Zhu Yanei will inevitably feel unhappy. Before it starts, a crack will arise. This is the rule in the future. Without rules, it will not be a square. I use the little money everywhere, and I feel so sad that I can't use it, so I think of a way to make some money."

Over the past year, Song Jiu has been spending a lot of money. Last year, he got a lot of money, but this year Zhao Kuangyin probably thought that the official position he gave him was very high, or that the money and silk in his hands were enough to use, and he never gave any money and silk. He did not give it to him, and Song Jiu was paying it back, so he got less and less money and silk in his hands. Otherwise, he would not have thought of greenhouse vegetables, which was forced to make money.

Song Jiu said again: "A good peony is priced in a good way. Peony is produced in Luoyang. The varieties of peony in Beijing are not very good. But if the peony is urged to be triggered on snowy days, what is the value?"

The eldest sister was a little dizzy. Selling peonies in snowy days is not worth much, and she would sell whatever she wants. She murmured, "If this is the case, it would be a luxury."
