If you don't work hard to farm the fields, you will inherit the throne with the prince.

Chapter 173
There are many people in Pearl Academy, and the progress of building a new academy is much faster, but again, the most troublesome thing is that there are too many people, and there are quite a lot of food.

Xie Mingzhu also knew that studying in the academy was very tiring, and she had to have a full stomach to work. She was not the kind of abusive Zhou Baopi, so she naturally tried to find ways to feed everyone better.

Of course, at this time, Xie Mingzhu did not use the new rice she had grown in the paddy field.

The rice is to be kept for rice seeding in the coming year, so it is naturally not edible.

But Xie Mingzhu still buys grain in the county town. The reason why she didn’t buy grain in the village is because the villagers can’t get enough to eat. If the food is sold to Xie Mingzhu, what will the villagers eat for themselves?
If some villagers would starve to death because of lack of food, Xie Mingzhu would definitely have a disturbed conscience.

Fortunately, there are electric pickup trucks now, and you can take the official road from Fengxiang Town to the county. Although the official road is all dirt roads, as long as the weather is sunny, it's not too much trouble.

Furthermore, before using a horse-drawn carriage, it took time on the road, not to mention that the male is tired, and the people in the carriage are also tired, and they can't pull too many things.

Now there is no need for the trouble of using a horse-drawn carriage. With a pickup truck, people can sit in the front of the pickup truck and pull food in the back.

Zhao's natal family sells pork. There are so many people in Mingzhu Academy, so they need pork. These pork are all bought from Zhao's natal family, and the price is the same as the market price, but because Xie Mingzhu can also sell pork The unremarkable thing like pig offal is a delicacy that everyone wants to eat, and Zhao's natal family also makes a lot of money.

With Zhao as the middleman, the nephew from Zhao's natal family and the younger ones simply come to Mingzhu Academy every day to go to school.

They will send the children to school together every morning when the pork is delivered.

After school in the afternoon, pick up the kids and go home.

One after another, spacious and bright classrooms rise from the ground.

Not only that, some people made doors and windows, and some people started greening according to the design drawings.

Today's greening is of course not that kind of flowers and plants, but according to Xie Mingzhu's wish, medicinal materials are planted in the open space.

The original greening of Pearl Academy can also be trees or flowers, but Xie Mingzhu thinks that medicinal materials are better. Only by planting more medicinal materials can the cost of medicinal materials be reduced.

Only when the medicine is cheap, some people will not be afraid of getting sick.

What's more, Chinese herbal medicines such as perilla, angelica, wormwood, Eucommia, honeysuckle, forsythia, houttuynia, etc., are planted in the open space.

Firstly, it can beautify the environment, and secondly, it can also be used for live teaching, so that students studying medical skills can better distinguish the ingredients of medicinal materials and their growth environment.

Of course, Xie Mingzhu didn't just grow one kind of medicinal material, she used a routine.

This ensures maximum beautification.

The repaired classrooms are spacious and bright.

Uncle Yu became more and more proficient in making glass.

Qin Che also asked Uncle Yu to make some glass, wrapped it tightly, and sent the glass to the capital to the Holy One.

At the same time, Meng Fu finds Xie Mingzhu.

"Ma'am, I read in the book that there is cotton planting, is this a good kind?"

Cotton is not a rare thing. There are also people in Xiejia Village who grow cotton, and even most people's quilts are made by themselves after growing cotton.

"It's pretty easy to grow." Xie Mingzhu heard Meng Fu's question, and asked, "Are you trying to keep the soldiers warm in winter?"

"Yes." Meng Fu agreed.

She used to see someone guarding her, and she froze to death. Since then, the general will be ruthless against those who use military supplies, and after killing a few people who have pocketed their own money, no one dares to take the risk of beheading. , to do such a heartless thing.

"If it's just to keep warm, I suggest making down jackets."

Meng Fu asked in surprise, "What is that?"

"It's clothes made of duck or goose down."

Meng Fu frowned, and asked, "How to do this?"

"This method is light and warm, but a little troublesome."

Xie Mingzhu took Meng Fu to find Qin Che and explained what Meng Fu meant.

"Cotton seeds can definitely be grown, but if we make down jackets, we can maximize the economy. For example, we can raise ducks. The ducks we raise can be used to make down jackets, duck eggs can be eaten, and duck meat can also be eaten. It can be made into delicacies such as salted duck, killing two birds with one stone."

Qin Che asked, "Will this be troublesome?"

"The biggest trouble is still where there is water."

Qin Che said: "Then if we build a hydropower station, the hydropower can be used by machines, ducks can be raised on the surface of the water, and fish can be raised in the water, Mingzhu, do you think this is the case?"

Qin Che is very smart, Xie Mingzhu knows it.

He is a very inferential person.

At that time, he was also surprised by the rice flower fish in the rice field, and now he diverged his thinking from raising ducks to raising fish.

"Yes." Xie Mingzhu murmured slightly, "The biggest problem right now is that the construction of the hydropower station will cost a lot of money. Not only do we need money, but we also need to move."

Of course, Qin Che hoped to replicate the operation process of the construction of the Three Gorges Dam, but it was actually not very easy.

"The issue of relocation is not something we need to consider. Let the Taifu consider it."

Not only did Qin Che think, it's a good thing that the Grand Tutor is here, the flag is really well pulled, if anything happens, just ask the Grand Tutor to come forward.

"Then about the construction of the hydropower station, do you have to talk to His Royal Highness and the Holy Majesty?"

"Teacher will report back." Qin Che said softly, "The Holy Majesty even told you to let go and do it, so you just let go and do it."

"Okay, then let me see what is needed to build the hydropower station."

Xie Mingzhu knew better than anyone else that if she wanted to build a hydropower station, she would definitely have to buy the machine in the Qiangguo Mall. Although her points have increased a bit now, she is still far from being able to buy this kind of machine.

In Xie Mingzhu's plan, she wanted to buy the machinery and equipment in the printing factory first.

The printing factory can only start working while the sun is still high, so that when the books are distributed, more and more people will benefit.

"it is good."

Since taking out the divine book of time travel, there are many things that Xie Mingzhu doesn't need to think about by herself.

There are so many people, after reading this kind of book, there will always be some new inspirations.

For these new inspirations, they always have all kinds of new ideas that are surprisingly difficult.

So much so that Xie Mingzhu only needs to think about how to get points.

Of course, Qin Che, Tai Tuo, Meng Fu and others also knew that Xie Mingzhu's things alone were not enough to change the world.

As the saying goes, it is better to have your own than to have your father and mother.

Uncle Yu, Shi Da, Shi Er and others also hope that they can make their own machines.
