Chapter 284 Farmhouse



When we arrived at Shanglinyuan, the fields had been cleared and seedlings had been grown, ready for spring planting.

As soon as Zhao Qingrui came over, the farmers noticed her immediately.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Xu Changming led the farmers to pay their respects to Zhao Qingrui.

"No need to be so polite, you are raising seedlings." Zhao Qingrui walked over and helped Xu Changming up. In the past few years, Xu Changming and his team have mastered the grafting technology and composting technology, and are now leading the farmers to study hybridization technology.

This is a long process. Zhao Qingrui took out some seeds, but the grain production in Daqin is not high, and these grains are not useless. They cannot be abandoned.

Zhao Qingrui was very satisfied with their research attitude. Shanglinyuan is now their experimental field. Even if there is not much harvest, they can still harvest a lot of grain.

Zhao Qingrui strongly supports their research. The food problem of Daqin cannot be solved entirely by its own system. They still need to work hard on their own.

"Yes, spring is about to arrive and it's time to grow seedlings. Your Highness, would you like to go and have a look?" Xu Changming looked at Zhao Qingrui expectantly.

In order to increase grain production, Zhao Qingrui allocated a lot of funds for them, so that they had enough money for research, which made the farmers very grateful to Zhao Qingrui.

"Okay, I'll go take a look." Zhao Qingrui nodded with a smile.

"Your Highness, these are beans, which are the beans used to make tofu. These are the seeds produced after pollination of the bean seedlings with the highest yield selected last year. The yield of these beans should be higher this year." Xu Changming introduced them to Zhao Qingrui.

Zhao Qingrui gave them a lot of books, and they also learned a lot from Zhao Wen. They also had a clearer understanding of things like cross-pollination and knew how plants produce seeds.

"This is a peach tree, grafted with peach branches. This is a red tangerine, grafted..." Walking into the orchard, Xu Changming talked about the successfully grafted fruit trees.

Last year these fruit trees produced a large amount of fruit, which made them more interested in grafting technology.

"Your Highness, please look at this. This is the pollination data of various crops we have studied." Xu Changming brought out a pile of thick experimental record books.

Looking at these experimental records, Zhao Qingrui took one and flipped through it. The fields and fruit trees were all numbered, and he remembered clearly which one was used for pollination.

You can see that they really put their heart into it.

"You have done a great job, I am very happy." Zhao Qingrui said gently. Xu Changming led the farmers to continuously explore and increase the yield of crops, and Zhao Qingrui gave high praise.

"With you here, every household in our Great Qin will surely have enough to eat, and we can eat as much fruit as we want."

"Your Highness, don't worry. I am willing to sacrifice my life for the people of the Great Qin." Xu Changming said excitedly. If they could really do what Zhao Qingrui said, then they would surely be remembered for generations to come.

They no longer lack status or money, but what they lack is fame.

"Is there anything you're missing? I'll have someone send it to you." Zhao Qingrui is very concerned about agriculture.

"We have enough other things, but we are a little short of manpower. Your Highness, can you find some people who are good at farming for us?" Xu Changming looked at Zhao Qingrui expectantly.

There are 100,000 black-armored guards stationed in Shanglinyuan. Even with their help, they are just soldiers and not good at farming. Asking them to help with the work sometimes makes things worse.

"This is easy. I'll register this matter in the newspaper later, and then send it to you after Li Xiang and others have reviewed and approved it." Zhao Qingrui did not refuse. Compared with the talents who are good at literature and martial arts, there are a lot of people who are good at farming.

"Do you have any other requirements for these people?" Zhao Qingrui asked Xu Changming.

"It's best if they can read, but it's okay if they can't. They must be honest and obedient, not those who act on their own." Xu Changming said after thinking for a while.

Zhao Qingrui nodded. This request was simple. "I understand."

After looking around the experimental field, Zhao Qingrui saw many farmers' children recording the experimental process. He went over to take a look and found that these people recorded in great detail, recording every step.

Zhao Qingrui quietly appeared behind that person. She was still observing the plants in the experimental field and didn't notice that Zhao Qingrui was standing behind her.

Xu Changming saw what Zhao Qingrui did, but he did not remind the little girl. It was obvious that His Highness appreciated and was satisfied with her strict attitude.

The other experimenters wanted to salute, but were suppressed by Zhao Qingrui, who asked them to continue recording their experimental data and processes and not to worry about him.

I took a look at what the little girl had recorded. She recorded it in great detail, even recording a few leaves. The growth conditions, the distance between each plant, and the fertilization conditions were all recorded in detail.

This is how the experiment should be done, Zhao Qingrui was very satisfied.

"Let's go and don't disturb them here." Zhao Qingrui whispered to Xu Changming.

"Yes." Xu Changming nodded respectfully.

After taking a look around the experimental field, Zhao Qingrui went towards the breeding area.

"Hu Hai is not well yet?" Zhao Qingrui frowned as he looked at the manager of the breeding area.

"Your Highness, I don't know either." How could the steward know Hu Hai's condition since he was not recuperating here?

"Where are the others?" Zhao Qingrui asked indifferently.

"Your Highness, after Master Hu Hai was injured by His Majesty, Madam Hu asked for His Majesty's permission to take him to Ganquan Palace to recuperate. He has not returned yet." The steward did not dare to hide it and directly told the story of Hu Hai being taken away by Madam Hu.
