Li Yun returned home and entered the space.
She planned to make a fertilization plan. She remembered that in her previous life, she had done fertilization with her parents.
In the past, making fertilizer was relatively simple. Cow and pig manure were mixed together, then wood ash was sprinkled on top. Urine and water were sprinkled on top, and the mixture was then mixed evenly. The mixture was then left to dry in the sun. In the evening, urine or water was sprinkled on top to mix it evenly. After a week of exposure and fermentation, it became organic fertilizer.
Considering that there was not so much animal feces in ancient times, it seems impossible to do the same as in the previous life.
How to make organic fertilizer?
Without these fertilizers, it would seem impossible to grow high-yield crops in ancient times.
Because the land in ancient times was barren and lacked nutrition, it was impossible to grow high-yield rice.
After thinking for a long time, almost to the point of bursting her brain, she finally came up with the idea of using soil as fertilizer.
She remembered that one time when she wanted to plant vegetables, she didn't have good soil. She saw a dried-up pond with dark soil, so she dug some up to plant vegetables.
I thought it wouldn't grow out, but after a few days, a small tooth germ actually grew out.
After a month, the vegetables were better than those grown before.
She just couldn't understand why this happened.
Until one day, when she was chatting with the old ladies in the village, she mentioned it and they told her that the silt in the river has the highest nutritional value.
Thinking of this, I finally understand how fertilization was done in ancient times.
First, they sent people to the horse and cattle market to buy horse and cattle dung, and then they sent people to find people who sold night incense and bought it from them. In ancient times, people's excrement was called night incense, and there were special people who sold night incense for the wealthy families.
Then ask people to dig silt from the river, and then ask people to buy wood ash.
This is simple, every household has wood ash.
Get some paper and a brush and write down the steps you want to take.
After writing, wait for the ink in the pen to dry, then take the paper out of the space.
"An Yi, go get Tian Ji." An Yi had just settled those people and came back to see if his master needed him to do anything. He heard his master asking him to call Tian Ji, so he hurried back to call him.
Soon, An Yi brought Tian Ji.
"Master, An Yi said you have something to talk to me about?" Tian Ji came in front of Li Yun and said respectfully.
"Yes, take a look at this?" Li Yun handed the paper to Tian Ji.
Tian Ji looked at the words on it and asked Li Yun in confusion: "Master, what is this?"
"Uncle Tian, how many years have you been farming?" Li Yun did not answer him, but asked him how many years he had been farming.
"Master, it has been thirty years. Since I was ten years old, I started to learn farming from my master in the farm." Tian Ji began to recall the past, remembering when he was young, he followed his master to farm in the farm all day long.
Although it was hard work, he didn't feel it was hard at all because of his master's care and cultivation.
When he was five years old, his family was so poor that they sold him to a landlord. The landlord arranged for him to live in a farm and let him follow his master.
Thinking about the hardships I experienced in my youth and my fate of being sold so frequently, I couldn't help but feel sad and almost cried.
Li Yun looked at the changes on Tian Ji's face and knew that he was remembering some past events, so he didn't urge him and let him come out on his own.
"Master, I'm sorry. I just remembered some past events. Please punish me." Tian Ji came back to his senses from the past and realized that his master was waiting for his reply, so he quickly apologized.
"It's okay, I was the one who asked about your living situation." Li Yun did not blame Tian Ji.
"After 30 years of farming, have you found out why the grain yield is so low?" Li Yun asked Tian Ji again.
“I don’t know. This is something that Master and I couldn’t figure out. Master was thinking about it until his death.
Master, do you know the reason?
Is it related to what is written on this piece of paper? "It is true that although Tian Ji is illiterate and has never been to school, his mind is still very flexible.
Li Yun asked a question, and he was able to consider other issues from this question.
"You're right, I know the reason.
The reason your crops have low yields is because the soil is poor and lacks nutrients. The seeds don't get enough nutrients, so naturally they grow poorly.' Li Yun said to Tian Ji.
"Master, what is 'barren'?
What is 'nutrition'?" Tian Ji was completely confused by these new words.
He had been farming for thirty years and had never heard anyone talk about it.
“Poor soil means that the soil has not absorbed nutritious fertilizers.
How to say nutrition? It’s like you have never eaten meat or drunk soup, so you are pale, hungry and thin, and have no strength at all.
If you eat meat and drink soup every day, and you feel full every day, your body functions will gradually recover, making you full of energy and strong. This is nutrition.
Those lands cannot grow good crops because they lack nutrients.
If we provide them with nutrients, they will be able to produce high yields of grain." Li Yun patiently explained to Tian Ji and gave him an example.
Tian Ji was stunned at first, but gradually he was attracted by his master's example.
It turns out that he is so ugly because of lack of nutrition. No wonder he can't find a wife.
This is off topic. Tian Ji has gone off topic and talked about the major events in his life.
"Uncle Tian, do you understand what I mean?" Li Yun asked Tian Ji.
"Master, I understand a little, but not quite." Tian Ji touched his head embarrassedly. He seemed to have gone astray just now and did not listen to his master's words carefully, which made him feel ashamed.
