On the computer screen, an epic battle unfolded before the old knight's eyes. The stirring background music swelled, and two armies clashed in the pouring rain. Blood, steel, and carnage thrilled Cumberland, making him tremble with excitement.
Meanwhile, the meeting continued.
"I've got it!" Todd slammed his hand on the table, startling everyone.
After flipping through his memory for a while, Todd shared a tutorial video on "Microbial Synthesis of Nitrogen Fertilizer" with everyone's computer.
The video is 30 minutes long, simple and easy to understand, with virtually no technical jargon, minimal theoretical content, and a focus on practical demonstrations. It primarily discusses a topic from university extracurricular classes—how to use bacteria to synthesize nitrogen fertilizer needed for crops.
In the field of microbiology, there is a type of bacteria called rhizobia, which was discovered in 1884 but only gained attention in 1975. Rhizobia can live in symbiosis with legumes, forming root nodules and fixing inorganic nitrogen from the air and water into organic nitrogen fertilizer, thereby providing nutrients to the plants.
In agricultural applications, peanuts artificially inoculated with root nodules can fix 7.2-12.4g of nitrogen per square meter per year, meaning that each acre of peanuts can obtain nitrogen equivalent to 10-17 kg of urea from nitrogen fixation. Especially in infertile soils, 94% of the nitrogen fixed by the root nodules each day is supplied to the plant, with only 6% remaining in the nodules, which can increase the original yield by about 70%.
Most importantly, the artificial cultivation of rhizobia is not complicated, and the inoculation process is also relatively simple. These are technologies that are perfect for the agricultural development of the Muxi Kingdom.
While playing the video, Todd explained to everyone: "Regarding the development of microbial fertilizer, the Twilight Academy and the Master's Academy are working together. We can first conduct trial plantings on a small scale to find the best inoculation method before promoting it on a large scale."
After discussing agricultural development, Todd exchanged views with the officials on some kingdom affairs. Then, he secretly summoned the old craftsman Aiden and showed him the 3D model of the musket he remembered.
"So, with the kingdom's current industrial capabilities, is it possible to replicate this gun?"
The king's hopeful gaze made the old craftsman feel as heavy a burden on his shoulders as a mountain.
“Your Majesty, this gun barrel requires drilling and rolling technology; this gunpowder magazine requires a metal-controlled alien material; and this trigger requires a special spring and firing mechanism… In addition, there are many other things that I cannot see clearly at the moment and need to study in detail.”
Todd nodded in agreement: "Before the meeting ends, I'll have Mary write down pictures of this model and some other muskets, then have her draw them in reality and give them to you. Old Aiden, gather your best craftsmen and do everything in your power to replicate this weapon!"
After explaining these matters, Todd bid farewell to the officials and planned to close the Soul Space.
When it was Cumberland's turn, his eyes were practically glued to the screen; he was completely absorbed in the drama and didn't even hear the greetings from others.
Terence leaned closer curiously, glanced at it a few times, and then kept looking at it, saying, "It's amazing! I can actually use this crystal box to trace back the fate of a historical hero!"
Seeing that more and more people were gathering in front of the computer screen, Todd said dryly, "The daily meeting is over. If you don't have anything else to do, hurry back. There's still a lot of work to be done in the kingdom!"
Naturally, nobody paid him any attention.
