Chapter 269 Improvement (Ten Updates)
"There is still not enough fertilizer." Ye Sanniang squinted her eyes slightly and said, "There is too little farm manure."

"The main reason is that there are few people." Ye Yanxing was taken aback when he heard the words, and said casually, "But there can't be too many people."

"Why!" Ye Sanniang looked up at him slightly and said with great interest.

"This person has to eat after birth. There are too many people and there is not enough to eat." Ye Yanxing said after thinking about it seriously.

"Can't we grow crops that can fertilize the land?" Ye Sanniang asked as she looked at the land that was forced to rest with her clear eyes.

"It doesn't seem to work! There is only winter wheat this winter. If it is planted at other times, will it delay the planting of food?" Gao Mancang said, waving the horsewhip in his hand lightly.

"I see that many lands are still uncultivated! Can't they be cultivated?" Ye Sanniang said in surprise.

"No one is farming." Gao Mancang said regretfully, and said sadly, "The north has been in war for many years, the population has withered, and the land can only be left uncultivated. Only the fields next to the city wall have resumed cultivation."

"I just think that there is no one left. The emperor will not issue an order to allow widows to remarry." Ye Luoxing raised the corner of the car curtain and looked out.

"There's a pit ahead! You've caught it firmly," Gao Mancang reminded.

It was Gao Mancang who reminded them that when the mule cart passed through the pit, Ye Sanniang and the others almost touched the roof of the cart with their head bumped.

"This road can't compare with our village." Ye Luoxing couldn't help complaining.

"Just tell the truth." Ye Sanniang looked at him amusedly and said, "This road has to be repaired, as if there is no one here, it can only be abandoned."

I really want to start the tractor, gallop over the wasteland, and plow them in an instant.

"Alas...manpower is limited after all." Ye Sanniang sighed heavily, "We still have to make tools."

"Tools?" Ye Luoxing looked at her suspiciously and said.

"A light, convenient and efficient tool for agricultural production." Ye Sanniang said with a dreamy expression in her eyes.

"What tool." Ye Yanxing said excitedly.

"You need to make it." Ye Sanniang said, looking at them after recovering.

"If you say it, you don't say it." Ye Luoxing looked at her with a sullen face and said, "No matter what tool it is, it cannot be separated from people."

"That's the point." Ye Sanniang put down the curtain in her hand and said, closed the window, and plugged it in.

"Is this tool easy to make?" Ye Yanxing looked at her expectantly and asked.

"Can it be built? Imagination?" Ye Luoxing looked up at the roof of the car, and finally shook his head, "No."

"It's impossible to imagine it out of thin air! It's an improvement on the original basis. For example, what was the plowshare like in the pre-Qin period? What was it like in the Three Kingdoms? It was gradually improved to what it is now." Ye Sanniang's eyes were as soft as jade. looked at them and said.

"You can tell from the history books, the most famous Qu Yuanli." Ye Yanxing suddenly remembered and said.

"If this plowshare doesn't use oxen or manpower, just find a way to improve it without using people or oxen." Ye Sanniang said, looking at them with shining eyes.

"Then what? Use a horse or a mule." Ye Luoxing said casually upon hearing the words.

"What's the difference between that and using farm cattle?" Ye Sanniang said, flicking a shudder on his rabbit fur hat with her fingers.

"What's the use?" Ye Yanxing looked at her with innocent eyes full of curiosity and asked.

"Use..." Ye Sanniang slammed on the brakes, swallowed the word "mechanical", and thought about it seriously, "Use? Zhuge Liang, that wooden bull and horse back then."

"That has been lost." Ye Yanxing said with a wry smile, "Don't think about it."

"Mother is talking about the one that can carry more than four hundred catties, travels tens of miles per day, and travels thirty miles in groups, and transports food for the Shu Han's [-] troops. Wooden cows and horses!" Ye Luoxing remembered after hearing the words, "Effortless."

"Let the old slave say that it's a rickshaw or a unicycle, so it's not easy." Gao Mancang shook his head with a light smile, and then said, "Of course the road must be good, otherwise it will be difficult to push."

Ye Sanniang shook her head and laughed, "Maybe!"

Machinery is a delusion for her. Salt and iron are all government-run and controlled, so you can get them casually.

What is the current quality of iron smelting?Even if it is good, but what about the output!Without production, everything is empty talk.

"After walking for so long, why haven't I seen any people?" Ye Luoxing opened the window, looked out of the car window and muttered.

"We've only been out for a long time, we've been walking all morning!" Ye Sanniang looked at them with a smile on her lips and said, "Why are you tired of looking at the scenery?"

"What's so good about this, the endless dry grass, and occasionally birds. There's not even a single person." Ye Luoxing muttered.

"Isn't there no rooster crowing for thousands of miles?" Ye Yanxing lifted the curtain on the other side and said, "I've never come out before, I thought it was as prosperous as a mansion outside!" He suddenly said with emotion, "So it's so desolate!"

"When can we see the village?" Ye Sanniang asked Gao Mancang through the curtain.

"It's evening." Gao Mancang said seriously after thinking for a while.

"Aren't you hungry? If you're not hungry, let's hold on. It's too cold outside, and it's not worth lighting a fire to cook." Ye Sanniang turned her gentle gaze on the two of them, "It's really impossible to have dry food, Ruyi and the others Spread the pancakes." His index finger crossed the eyebrows and said, "It's a bit cold and harder."

"I can still hold on, I'm full in the morning." Ye Yanxing pursed his lips and said, his bumpy chest was churning, he didn't dare to eat anymore.

"Close the windows! Even though the sun is shining outside, the wind is as sharp as a knife, and it hurts." Ye Sanniang pointed at their hands with her index finger.

"It's okay, let's cover it tightly." Ye Luoxing, who only showed his eyes, said with a chuckle.

"As you wish." Ye Sanniang said while looking at him with warm eyes.

Ye Yanxing obediently closed the window and lowered the curtain.

"It would be great if there were transparent crystals." Ye Sanniang couldn't help muttering in a low voice. She wanted to talk about glass, but it's a pity that the cost is expensive now, and the quality is not up to standard.

Ye Yanxing looked at her with bright eyes when he heard the words, and then looked at the car window, "How expensive that is! Even the princes and nobles may not be able to afford it."

"So! I'm just talking." Ye Sanniang looked at them with amber cat-like pupils and said helplessly.

After bumping all the way until half the afternoon, Ye Luoxing opened the car window and looked outside, "Have you seen anyone yet?"

"No." Gao Mancang looked up and said, "It's coming soon."

"How do you know?" Ye Yanxing asked curiously looking at him.

"The withered grass on both sides has traces of being mowed." Ye Sanniang pointed at the withered grass on both sides of the dirt road with her index finger.

"Yes!" Ye Yanxing said, looking at her with surprise in his eyes.
