"Wait." Yao Chong felt insulted.
"Your Majesty, I'm still healthy. Why do you say that?" Yao Chong felt wronged. What did I say wrong? I have to check my body?
"What if the chickens fall into the water? The artificial water network has no shallows and has a steep slope. It's fine to raise geese, but if the ducks are raised in the water, they will eat up all the small fish. Everyone is still waiting to fish in the water. What about the boats? "
Li Longji still wanted to ask the imperial physician to come in. Unfortunately, Brother Yi had not returned from the sea. Otherwise, the equipment was too advanced for the nurses to understand.
"Li Yi said to raise ducks and geese in the water network." Yao Chong recalled and was certain.
"Brother Yi said to raise them in the water network, not in the water network. The water network is connected to the ditches, the ditches are connected to the fields, and the water network is connected to the fields. The fields will be washed away."
Li Longji said and turned to look at the door again.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I'm fine." Yao Chong was afraid that if he saw His Majesty looking at the door too much, he would suspect that he was sick.
Yao Chong retreated. Song Jing rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think so. The ducks and geese will enter the ditches and enter the paddy fields to eat the rice seedlings."
"Paddy fields have existed since ancient times. Do you see ducks and geese entering?"
Li Longji did not believe that anyone would allow ducks and geese to enter the fields to eat.
"No, not even horses and cows." Song Jing forgot that there was someone watching over them.
"Sacrificing tadpoles can be used to raise ducks in the paddy fields. When the rice seedlings grow, the ducks will not be able to eat them. Brother Yi mentioned this before."
Li Longji remembered all of it. In his opinion, the common things of the people were all knowledge.
He believed that no one in the world understood loneliness better than him.
"Your Majesty, I found that raising rabbits in cages is very profitable. Chickens should be raised in cages and kept closely together. "
Su Yi, Song Jing, and Yao Chong had a common enemy.
"Brother Yi said that he doesn't have any medicine. If he raises them intensively, the chickens will definitely fall sick. His family is rich, and the hairy ones don't count. Every one of them dies."
Li Longji was not angry. It was good that his subjects were willing to use their brains!
Do your best and surpass Brother Yi. I look forward to it.
"Your Majesty, has the Li Family Zhuangzi's land been prepared? Just waiting for Li Yi to return? "
Zhang Jiuling had no choice but to change the topic. Why were they competing with Li Yi? Everyone could fly.
"The Imperial Plantation has also plowed the soil and fertilizers. After two days of drying, we will add wet fertilizer again."
Li Longji nodded. He was waiting. There could be leftovers, but there had to be enough.
Even the Forbidden Garden and Fragrant Woods Garden had been set aside to plant new species. They dug up the flowers and planted them elsewhere.
There were also people in the palace who secretly sold flowers. Seeing that there was no place to plant them, they threw away the dead flowers. All of them were sold. The cheapest flower with roots was sold for two hundred coins.
Do you really think that I don't know? In any case, those flowers were dead anyway. Since they had the ability and the channels, they could sell them.
"Your Majesty, if there are too many seeds, we can ask other places to pull out seedlings."
Zhang Jiuling suggested again. He meant to compensate the people who were requisitioned in other places.
"How can there be so many?" Li Longji shook his head. If they could fill up the land, they could spread it to the capital and Henan prefectures next year.
…
"Li Dongzhu definitely did not expect us to be so fast. We are the ones who are amazing."
Liu Tingguang, who was on the fleet, felt a little sneaky when he saw everyone changing fresh water.
They once again bypassed many islands, going directly from Guam to the Federated States of Micronesia's Palikir Island.
The wind was good, so they ran diagonally.
Ruan Jin looked at the enthusiastic natives on the island and shook his head. "The truly amazing one is Dongzhu. We just went to any island, and Dongzhu already helped us contact them.
The new sea maps were handed over by the natives, just like how we opened the sea maps in the secret box.
Wild vegetables, fresh water, dried salted fish, and straw mats were all sent over.
I'll give you a year to be the vanguard. Can you do it? "
"I'm not going to compare myself to Li Dongzhu. We're saving things, so there's no need to give up on the ship." Liu Tingguang was open-minded.
Since they had been taking shortcuts, the steam engine ship had sails, and the consumption of washed coal was low. The ship still had a lot of coal.
Ruan Jin picked up a piece of grilled fish that was hanging in the middle of the house. "I want to leave a sailboat behind. I'm afraid that if we run into danger, someone might luckily reach this place and use the ship to send the news back to the Tang dynasty."
"An extra ship can bring more things back. We really can't go back. The ship that sent the message probably won't reach the Tang dynasty. Li Dongzhu will come looking for us again."
Liu Tingguang had a different opinion. He believed that leaving a ship behind might not guarantee that someone would be able to find this place if something happened.
Ruan Jin tore off a piece of grilled fish and chewed it with his head lowered. He then looked up. "Fine. If something happens, there's a ship here. Tell the natives."
The natives on the island didn't have too many worries. They just needed to get by.
They were more trustworthy and promised Li Yi that they would preserve the house well. They didn't eat the fish inside.
They also prepared dried vegetables, dried fish, and other things. There was no shortage of fresh water.
It was time for them to reap their harvest. The fleet of the Tang dynasty gave them silk. There were a total of more than 600 people and 50 bolts of silk.
The people of the Tang dynasty also helped them catch fish. Some of it was for them to eat, while the rest was for the fleet of the Tang dynasty to eat on their return journey.
In a situation where there was no hostility, the communication between the two sides was quite smooth.
The officials led a portion of the natives to boil the sea. They used jars to boil seawater to make salt.
If there was too much fish, it wouldn't be easy to preserve them. They couldn't give the salt they brought to the natives.
Anyway, they had enough firewood and soil.
First, they put soil into a large clay pipe to boil it. When it was saturated, they took down the jar and changed it to a new one.
After the previous jar was cleared, the salt water above it was poured into the next jar.
If there were still too many impurities, they would continue to put soil in.
After a few times, the salt that was boiled out was relatively clean. It was used to make salted fish and shrimp.
The natives beamed with joy. They felt that the efficiency was not as high as the previous boat because there were more people now.
Although there were few people on that boat, they caught fish quickly. Moreover, they caught big fish and never missed a fish.
Later on, sometimes there were not many fish in one net. Fortunately, they caught a lot of fish.
Happiness had nothing to do with efficiency. The natives felt the goodwill of the people of the Tang dynasty.
There were so many people. If they said that they would kill them all, none of them would be able to escape.
They didn't kill, and they didn't even show a fierce expression.
One of the natives was about to die while giving birth. Their people made something as fast as possible. The natives lay down on it, and there was a place for them to grab.
There was also a pair of forceps to take out the baby.
They were all alive. The woman and the baby didn't die, and the baby was cleaned up.
They also fed some kind of juice to make the baby vomit out the dirty things.
In fact, it was a slanted obstetrical chair and forceps. The craftsmen made it in less than five minutes.
Seeing that something went into the baby's mouth and nose, they hurriedly boiled the herbs they brought. They cleaned it and fed it to the baby to induce vomiting.
As for the woman giving birth to the baby with the help of a bunch of men, neither side objected.
The people of the Tang dynasty thought that they were saving their lives. The natives never thought that the people of the Tang dynasty could do anything about it.
"Li Dongzhu even thought about this. He's a meticulous plan!"
Liu Tingguang watched the craftsmen of the Li Family Zhuangzi manually induce breast milk for the natives who had just given birth. After the baby drank the milk, he expressed his admiration.
