In the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan beat Li Shimin at the beginning

Chapter 21 It's Really A Baby
Li Ke hurriedly cupped his hands to Li Shimin and said, "Father, please don't be angry, just listen to my explanation.

Didn't I just say that?My head pot of wine is not just for drinking.And it can also be used to heal injuries.

As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.A kind of wine that can save lives costs two pennies per catty, is it expensive? "

Wei Zheng stood up and said, "His Royal Highness, how can you prove that your wine can be used to heal injuries?"

Li Ke said: "This is easy to prove. Just take it for an experiment and see if the wound sterilized with my wine heals faster than the wound sterilized without wine? It can be proved."

Li Shimin said decisively: "Zunzuo. Ke'er, if your wine really has the miraculous effect you said, I will not only save you from the crime of disturbing the court, but also give you a great credit."

In this era, there is no awareness of disinfection at all.The death rate of those wounded soldiers is very high.

If this wine can solve this problem, no one has any objection to Li Shimin crediting Li Ke.

Li Ke quickly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Father. Then I will sell this wine at this price for the time being. After the experiment is done, if there is no effect, I will lower the price. What do you think?"

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Okay, that's the end of this matter. Now let's talk about the treasure you said you want to show!"

Li Ke said with a smile: "Father, it is not convenient to display that thing here. Can you please move to my field?"

Is there really a baby show?Li Shimin was overjoyed.

"Okay. Then I will take all the civil and military officials over to have a look. Wang De, drive out of the palace."

The emperor took all the civil and military officials out of the palace, and the situation was undeniable, sitting on a dragon chariot.There are as many as [-] people who are protected alone.

All the way mighty, leaving Chang'an City, heading east.

To the east of Chang'an City, walking more than 5000 miles, is Li Ke's [-] mu of land.

Early this morning, Li Ke arranged for someone to come over and start plowing the land.

Several experienced old farmers, when they were at home, Li Ke taught them how to use the curved plow.

When they came to the field, they just got used to it and were able to use it normally soon.

Ever since, when the emperor and civil and military officials came here, these old farmers had already plowed a large piece of land.

An old farmer, holding a plow with one hand.Holding a small whip in his left hand, he drives a cow.

The ox pulled the plow and easily turned the soil over.

Seeing this scene, all civil and military officials counted as one, and they were all dumbfounded.

Why are they dumbfounded?

The main reason is that straight-shaft plows are used in this era. If you want to pull it, it usually takes 2 to 3 cattle to work together.

However, the old farmer who was holding a plow in the distance and driving his cattle towards them seemed so relaxed.

Most importantly, he only uses one ox.

In their view, this is impossible. It is impossible for a ox to pull a plow.

Even the Rehmannia wetlands that have been cultivated for many years are impossible.Not to mention this undeveloped arid slope.

This undeveloped dry slope is too hard, in their opinion, it is impossible to plow.It is impossible even for three oxen to pull the plow together.

But now, what's the situation?
Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng ran up excitedly, stretched out their clean hands, and moved the soil embryo that had just been turned over on the ground.

"Oh my god!"

Wei Zheng couldn't help but screamed.

Yes, he was too surprised.The soil was dug too deep.It turned over about 20 centimeters of soil embryo.

In their view, this is absolutely impossible.

This is incredible.

Other officials also ran up quickly, turning over the newly plowed soil embryos with their hands to check.

All of them had incredible expressions of shock on their faces.

Li Shimin also saw this scene, he jumped off the dragon chariot, and ran over to check these soil embryos.There was also a look of shock on his face.

Li Shimin, more or less knows some farming.

Every year during spring plowing, he would come to hold the plow handle with his own hands, plow a little bit of land, and put on a show.

The euphemistic name is: Persuading farmers.

It means that the emperor has personally gone to work in the fields. As farmers, what reason do you have for not farming?

However, for so many years, the scenes he saw were completely different from those in front of him.

There is no doubt that with such a deep plow and such loose soil, the crops planted will definitely increase their yield.

Seeing their appearance, Li Ke wanted to laugh a little.

Returning the emperor, this is a bunch of old hats.

If it was normal, the old farmer who plowed the land would not dare to come if he saw such a big scene.

But today is different, he has received a notice that today the emperor will bring all the civil and military officials over to check.

At the same time, the land plowed today is different from the past, and he has the mentality of showing off his skills in front of all civil and military officials.

Well, to put it bluntly, I just want to pretend to be tough.

So, with a nervous attitude, he drove the cattle all the way and plowed towards this side.

The oxen have finally come to an end, and the plow has also come to an end.

Seeing him, Li Shimin ran up immediately and held his hand personally.

"This old man, how did you do it?"

Civil and military officials also ran up, looking at the old farmer with piercing eyes.

As soon as the old farmer saw a guy in a dragon robe coming up to hold his hand and question him, there were so many senior officials staring at him.

He was so frightened that he couldn't say a word, and he no longer had the mentality to show off his skills.

Li Ke stepped up and said, "Father, why are you so excited? That's right, you read it right, this is the baby I was talking about."

Li Ke went up and asked the old farmer to cooperate to show Qu Yuanli in front of everyone.

"Dad, did you see that? This one is called Quyuanli. It only needs one ox to plow the land with ease.

No matter what slopes, mountains, paddy fields, as long as there are no super large stones, there is no problem at all.

Moreover, the depth of the plowed land can be adjusted by yourself.Plow as deep as you want, up to half a foot deep.Come, Faber, come and show everyone. "

That old farmer named Fu Bo, as soon as he heard that he was going to plow the land, he immediately drove the plow cattle and showed it off.

Following the movement of the cattle, Qu Yuanli dug deeply into the soil, turned out a large piece of soil, and kept moving forward...

what?
so easy?
Everyone was stunned.

According to this speed, one person and one cow a day, plowing 10 acres of 8 acres of land will definitely be no problem.

Oh my god.

With this baby, farming just got a whole lot easier.And the speed, I don't know how many times faster.

In this way, a lot of labor is saved in an instant!And it can also increase food production in large quantities.

The ox was solved, and so was the plow.

There is no need to worry about the task of spring plowing this year.

"Okay, okay, it really is a baby!"

Li Shimin looked at the old farmer's back and cried out happily.
