Of course, the iron used to make plowshares is different from the iron used to make weapons and is slightly inferior.
Moreover, the production is not enough.
After it is produced, it must be used in weapons.
Therefore, it is a good choice to lower the specifications so that ordinary blacksmith shops can barely carry out smelting.
Jiang Wan'er nodded: "I'm relieved that you can do the job. Spring plowing is coming soon. I'm looking forward to seeing the crops grow in your farms."
Zhao Hao smiled softly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have already given instructions. I will definitely not let Your Majesty down."
After briefly explaining the affairs of Qinzhou, Zhao Hao left the palace and returned to the princess's mansion.
He also did not mention when the thing that the royal sister promised would be fulfilled.
This kind of thing still requires an atmosphere.
The atmosphere is not right, so I definitely can’t say it.
…
Dagan's promotion of the curved plow was in full swing and soon attracted the attention of several other countries.
The first are the Wu and Shu kingdoms.
Shu Kingdom, Imperial Palace.
The empress held a piece of paper with a picture of a curved plow in her hand. After looking at it carefully for a while, her beautiful eyes fell on Princess Li Ge.
"This plow has been tried and is it really useful?"
Princess Li Ge nodded: "I have tried it, it is much better than the straight-beam plow we are currently using."
"Using this curved plow, the speed of plowing the land is increased several times."
Upon hearing this, the Empress of Shu took a deep breath and asked with her beautiful eyes flashing, "There are so many?"
Princess Li Ge nodded: "Yes, I just did the verification."
The Queen of Shu pursed her lips and said, "This Zhao Hao is really a treasure..."
"It's a pity that it can't be used by my Shu Kingdom."
"If this continues, Da Gan will definitely be the first to recover with his help."
"What should I do..."
The Queen of Shu said this with worry in her eyes.
Princess Li Ge said quickly: "Your Majesty, if we hurry up, maybe we can still make it."
The Empress of Shu Kingdom shook her head: "It is definitely too late today. Let's start gradually promoting it now and use it next year."
As she spoke, her eyes fell on Li Ge again and she waved at her gently.
"Ge'er, tell me, if all three of us sisters marry him and let him enjoy all the happiness, will he be willing to come to our Shu Kingdom?"
When Princess Li Ge heard this, her eyes widened and she almost didn't react.
Fortunately, she was already accustomed to the royal sister's style and thinking.
She took a deep breath, her pretty face blushed, and said, "Your Majesty, after all, he has a family now, and his father is a favorite minister. Even if he wants to, he would never dare to do this."
The Empress of Shu snorted softly and said, "That's true, damn Jiang Wan'er!"
"Such a treasure actually fell on her head. I don't know how lucky she is!"
Seeing Li Ge standing next to her, the Shu Queen waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, my sister only scolds me like this when no one is around."
"Not when there are people around."
…
Wu Kingdom, Imperial Palace.
Xie Daoxun came before the new emperor and took out the blueprint of the curved plow.
"Your Majesty, this is the curved plow that Da Gan is vigorously promoting."
"I have ordered this plow to be made and it has been verified."
“Better than what we are currently using…”
What happened next was similar to what happened in Shu Kingdom.
The difference is.
The State of Wu was located in the south, where the temperature was higher and the four seasons were not distinct.
Two crops can be sown each year.
…
For the next period of time, Zhao Hao took his family to live on the farm.
After staying at home for a long time, it really becomes boring.
Going to the farm and staying there for a while can also give you a sense of freshness.
His main purpose was to instruct the tenants in the village on how to ferment, how to apply fertilizer, and how much to apply.
After living there for nearly a month, the family returned to the city.
In addition to his own farm, there was also land allocated from the imperial farm and given to him as an experimental field.
So, although he said he was relaxing, he was still quite busy.
Of course, there are people from the imperial farm who come here specifically to study.
Learn while practicing.
When April comes, the small seedlings of crops come out.
In the experimental field, the seedlings are almost fully grown, while in other fields, seedlings are just beginning to emerge.
Moreover, the germination rate is obviously much lower, and the difference is visible to the naked eye.
The farmland on Zhao Hao's side is growing quite well. Although the rest of the experimental farms he is guiding are slightly worse, the difference is not too big.
This creates a considerable gap between this field and other ordinary fields without fertilizers.
In mid-April, after the grand court meeting, Jiang Wan'er led a group of court ministers to Zhao Hao's farm to see the growth of the crops after fertilization.
Just do research.
After seeing the growth of crops in Zhao Hao's farm, everyone was shocked.
Because, compared with the crops we saw along the way, the difference was so obvious.
Whether it's size or color, the difference is huge.
This kind of growth was beyond anyone's expectation.
The look he gave Zhao Hao changed again.
Many people have shown great interest in Zhao Hao's brain.
This kid seems to be born with knowledge.
When it comes to brewing distilled liquor, inventing paper, porcelain, and sky-high bombs, these were all related to "unemployment" in the early years.
It's just barely acceptable.
However, we can put aside the construction of a smelting workshop and the invention of that kind of iron for the time being.
This person not only improved the plow but also knew how to use animal manure as fertilizer, which was really strange.
A few years ago, this was a playboy.
How come you still farm?
Including Jiang Wan'er, everyone felt very strange and puzzled.
In the evening, on the way back from the farm, Jiang Wan'er couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not surprised that you can improve the plow. After all, you can even improve the bow and arrow."
"But how did you come up with the idea of using livestock manure as fertilizer?"
“Isn’t this a study of things?”
Zhao Hao sat aside, pretending to move forward casually, and said, "Your Majesty, this is actually the simplest."
“Just be observant.”
"Didn't Your Majesty say before that only fields that have been covered with livestock manure for many years will be useful?"
"Then, I will use this fermentation method to shorten the time so that it can produce effects immediately."
"It's a very simple matter, not that mysterious at all."
Jiang Wan'er said, "It may not be so mysterious to you, but in the eyes of others, you are like a person with a divine eye. You know everything and can do everything."
"By the way, I have an idea I want to tell you, I wonder if you are willing to talk about it!"
