Chapter 881: attach importance to agriculture

Chapter 881 Emphasis on Agriculture

Actually, when Lan Ruozhu heard this, her heart was agitated.

He wanted to do something for Chu and the people.

When he first became emperor, he reviewed the memorials overnight and looked at the situation in various parts of the Chu country, and he had a headache.

Because the situation in Chu State is more serious than he thought.

Only the generation from Dingzhou to Bianzhou was better. In other places, the people who were tricked by the princes of various states were killed and injured countless times, and they could not eat enough.

So he immediately ordered tax reductions and exemptions, encouraged farming, encouraged land reclamation, and distributed seeds to everyone.

also encourages fertility.

If there are many children, the county government will allocate more land and seeds to them when making statistics.

In this way, the population of Chu State will increase.

In ancient times, there were still many people and few people.

If there are too many people, the whole state of Chu will be lively, and people will cultivate the wasteland.

Lan Ruozhu believes that as long as he works hard, Chu State will surely become a prosperous and prosperous country.

Lan Ruozhu said: "Sister, you said that this method of running a school is good. Everyone has knowledge and knowledge, and has the ability to distinguish right from wrong."

"Furthermore, when everyone learns their abilities, they will be able to live a good life, and they will be able to eat enough and wear warm clothes."

"Maybe there will be something researched, just like my sister's cement, that's really good stuff."

Speaking of cement, Lan Ruozhu was also amazed.

The emergence of    cement really solved a lot of problems.

The city wall is reinforced with cement, and the city wall is even stronger.

The roads in Dingzhou Fucheng are all built with cement, and now the roads are spacious and beautiful.

Rain or snow, the ground will not be muddy.

After building the road with cement, the common people were curious and ran all the way to the street to see the cement road.

Everyone had a new and curious look on their faces.

Su Binglan said with a smile: "Yes, the more knowledge you learn and the more you understand, the more talents will emerge from all walks of life."

"Brother, I suggest opening an agricultural research department to recruit some agricultural talents and specialize in agricultural farming."

"These agricultural talents can also be divided into small teams. Every year during spring ploughing, they go to various places to guide the people and teach the people how to grow crops to be efficient and productive."

In this era, there is no import, and the food grown by each country is self-sufficient.

If you want to get food from other countries, you have to be controlled by others.

may also expose the lack of food within the country, which could easily lead to war.

So every country on this continent attaches great importance to farming.

It’s just that the emphasis on farming was given to farming, and the imperial court did not take effective measures.

For example, how to encourage farming, how to let ordinary people open up wasteland to cultivate fields, and teach everyone how to improve crops.

Everyone grows food the old-fashioned way without any improvements.

But now, the land around Dingzhou Fucheng and the land around Teng County are cultivated by the villagers according to the early methods.

These are also taught by Su Binglan.

She arranged for someone to teach everyone how to farm and fertilize.

She also distributed high-yield seeds to everyone.

The most important thing is that Lan Ruozhu set up a factory in Fucheng to make all the farming tools Su Binglan painted and distributed them to farmers, which greatly saves farmers' labor.

Everyone said those farm tools were good.

The people in the village value the cow so much because the cow can cultivate the land and save labor greatly.

Because if there were no cattle, the plough had to be pulled by manpower, which was really hard work.

Sometimes, after working for a long time, the villagers may go home and lie down with back pain and unable to move.

But the farming tools Su Binglan painted really saved labor.

Even if the villagers don’t have cattle, it’s fine to use such farming tools.

Lan Ruozhu was thinking about what his younger sister had just said, and he was thinking, just like this kind of agricultural tool, if the Ministry of Agriculture is established and such talents appear, it will be beneficial to the farming of the entire Chu country.

Not only farm tools, even if someone can research high-yield seeds, that is a great achievement.

It would be extremely useful if someone could make the yield of crops on an acre of land a little higher.

Lan Ruozhu said seriously: "Sister, just do as you said, I will create a new department in the imperial court called the Ministry of Agriculture."

Su Binglan said: "Brother, the Ministry of Agriculture does not have to be similar to the Ministry of Work and the Ministry of Personnel. It can be set up independently, and it is only for you to take care of it. Agriculture is the foundation, or it must be in the hands of your brother."

"The officials of the imperial court always have some rules and systems among the officials, which are set up separately. The person in charge of the agricultural research department only needs to report the affairs of the agricultural department to your brother, and usually only concentrate on research, and they do not need to care about the affairs of the officialdom. , and do not need to participate.”

Su Binglan thinks that people who specialize in research are actually not good at dealing with those relationships in officialdom.

It is better to let them just study agriculture.

Lan Ruozhu nodded and said, "That's true, we still need to cultivate more talents."

Lan Ruozhu found that he had a lot of things on his mind and a lot of things to do, but there was really no agricultural talent on hand.

He thinks his sister is an all-rounder, but he doesn't want to tire her.

I have to ask my sister to arrange and do everything. What should I do if I’m tired.

He is just such a little sister, like a baby, he actually hopes that his little sister can enjoy the princess's life easily.

It’s just that my younger sister is a great talent. Some things are brought up by my younger sister, and others don’t understand it when I consult with others.

And my sister can learn a lot from every idea and idea.

Many times Lan Ruozhu also likes to discuss things with her sister.

can benefit him a lot.

He also knew that there were rumors among the people that his sister was a fairy from heaven and earth who came to save the people.

In fact, sometimes he also thinks that his sister may really be a fairy.

If it wasn't for the fairy, how could my sister know so much.

And every thought that my sister does is beneficial to the country and the people.

Lan Ruozhu can imagine that during the holidays, Chu State will definitely become the most prosperous country on this continent.

"Brother, brother?"

Su Binglan was talking to Lan Ruozhu just now and found that her brother was a little distracted.

So she reached out and shook it in front of him.

Lan Ruozhu suddenly recovered, "Ah, sister, what did you just say?"

Su Binglan didn't say anything, just reached out to give Lan Ruozhu a pulse.

After confirming that her brother was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"My brother just lost his mind, and I'm worried that my brother is tired."

"No, I feel great and have energy every day."

Lan Ruozhu did not feel tired.

Su Binglan knew that the spring water might have played a role.

Su Binglan added spiritual spring water to the water his brother drinks on weekdays, also to strengthen his body.

"By the way, brother, you said that you need to cultivate more talents. In fact, if you open free schools in various places, you can cultivate a lot of talents."
