"You know how to build ships?" Tan Shui's eyes lit up.
Bi Goo sighed. "Xiao Yi not only knows how to build ships, but he also knows how to make many things. For example, he made many things for the women he likes."
"Oh!" Tan Shui's eyes dimmed.
"When you use the new ship, you can bring back a lot of seafood from the sea. It will be enough for the people in the stronghold to eat."
Li Yi continued to talk about the ship. A ship with a displacement of ten tons could bring back a lot of fish and shrimp.
With many people in the stronghold, they could also cooperate with other strongholds.
If they could make a hundred or eighty ships, they could be of help in future naval battles.
Yes, that was what he thought. In the current war, a ship with a displacement of ten tons was not considered small.
It could be used as a cargo ship or a fishing boat. It was not convenient for large warships to dock at the shore to resupply, so small boats could dock to deliver things.
"Xiao Yi, do we need to build ships to fish at the beach?" Bi Goo had never stayed at the beach.
He thought that fish could be caught anywhere at the beach, but the locals did not like to eat them.
Tan Shui looked at Bi Goo in surprise. She looked at him with an expression that said, "How can you not know this?"
She then said, "If the fishing boat is small, when the wind and waves are bad, you can't catch anything. The fishing net will be damaged if it soaks in the water for too long.
If it is soaked in the sea, there will be salt frost on it when it is taken out to dry.
It is best to wash the fishing net with salt frost with fresh water before drying it. Otherwise, it will spoil faster.
If you encounter big fish, the net will be damaged if it is small and not strong enough.
Also, if the big fish run away with it, you can only throw the net away. "
Bi Goo was speechless. He could see that he was being looked down upon.
Therefore, he turned to ask Li Yi, "Do you know how to catch fish when the wind and waves are bad?"
Li Yi wanted to laugh, but he held back. "The Dengzhou Navy uses the net that I designed to catch fish. It has to sink with the hook, or else it will not be able to catch fish.
Old Bi, did you forget that you came up with the idea of using two ships to sink the net and hold it up? "
As Li Yi spoke, he saw Bi Goo's ugly expression and hurriedly tried to salvage the situation.
"That's right. This old man remembers now. If a net is placed on the surface of the water, the net will float on the surface of the water. If the wind and waves are strong, the net won't be able to reach it.
Bi Goo looked at Li Yi with admiration and immediately followed up.
He was not really stupid. The wind and waves were strong, and the boat was small. Even if the net wanted to sink, it would not sink.
If the boat was bigger, they could go down with the pendant. If there were no fish on the boat, they would fish for the fish below.
"Bi Zaifu actually has such a miraculous technique." Tan Shi was greatly moved and prepared to go back and give it a try.
"It's mainly about Xiao Yi. I'm only an armchair strategist." Bi Goo did not want to tell Lu Zhou that he was the inventor of a fishing net.
He still cared about his reputation. That kind of reputation was not a good one, but a disgrace.
Song Jing changed the topic. "Lu Zhou, are there any terraced fields in the area?"
At this moment, Tan Hai spoke up, "Yes, we know how to open up the fields. We also have water buffaloes. We don't need to pay rent. Sometimes, the officials have work to do, and we'll send someone to do it. "
"Is the crooked plow useful? That was made by Li Yi as well, "Song Jing asked with a smile.
"What plow?" Tan Hai was puzzled.
"A crooked plow. One cow can pull it," Song Jing said.
"No, it's usually two cows working together. There are some places in the terraced fields where it's difficult to turn." Tan Hai shook his head.
"When Pang Renqing comes back, let him go to mine. Or let him go to the place where the canal is dug to do the most dangerous work." Song Jing asked Bi Gou and Su'Er for their opinions.
The two of them nodded in unison. They could not kill him, but they would not let him have an easy time.
Tan Shui seemed to have thought of something. "Is there a better plow that can be pulled by one cow?"
"Yes!" Song Jing nodded.
"Did the court order the local officials to tell the people about this?" Tan Shui asked again.
"Yes!" Song Jing nodded again. It was difficult for him to nod.
"Are many places aware of this? Are they still using it? "Tan Shui asked.
Song Jing took a deep breath. "Yes!"
"Don't transfer him back. We'll deal with it." Tan Shui gritted his teeth.
"No." Li Yi refused. "It's against the law to kill an official. However, the court will compensate you for your losses. "
Li Yi was straightforward. He did not waste words. Compensation. The people had suffered losses because of the local officials.
The officials were sent by the court. The court could not simply capture the officials. What would they do about the losses?
"There's no need for compensation." Tan Shui suddenly became amicable.
"I have better ways to preserve soil, water, and fertilizer than terraced fields. I'll write it down and print it in the newspaper. You can take some back. "
Li Yi had begun to use more advanced methods in the terraced fields in Hua Province and Tong Province.
He planted in rotation, stubble, and intercropping. The weather at Lu Zhou's place was warm. The winter was not cold.
There were many intercropping crops suitable for soil preservation. There were many choices.
The best way to preserve fertilizer was through deep plowing.
Water preservation … Although there were droughts at Lu Zhou's place, he could plant wheat in the terraced fields. When the rainy season happened, he could plant rice.
The terraced fields did not have to be filled with rice. He could plant other vegetables as well.
When he was done planting, he could see patches of different colors when he looked at them from the sky.
The land that could not be preserved with water could be used as dry fields. The land that could be preserved with water could be used as paddy fields.
If he planted rapeseed in the dry fields, he could extract oil from it. If he planted beans, he would have tofu to eat.
"We'll have newspapers in the future. I can read." Tan Shui was proud when she said she could read.
Most of the people in her place were illiterate. It was amazing if they could read.
"When the roads are repaired, we can set up a few more newspaper offices," Li Yi agreed. He could not do it now. He could not send the newspaper over.
"Xiao Yi, hurry up and eat. Once you're done, you can write it down. It's best if you can draw it and print it in the newspaper tomorrow morning. There are many terraced fields here.
There's a lot of riverbanks here, "Bi Goo urged. He did not even ask if it was feasible. Was Li Yi's method wrong?
After everyone finished eating, Song Jing made another promise. The three of them went back and prepared to arrest the culprits.
They were angry. The imperial court's policies were so good. Li Yi was so crazy about supporting them.
In the end, the local officials did not promote it. Could it be that they wanted to fight against the imperial court?
Li Yi went back to his study to draw a blueprint. The task was very important. He had to draw boats and terraced fields.
The three members of the Tan family took their coupons and found someone to accompany them into Chang'an. They wanted to buy something for their clansmen.
The money they brought was not spent on making connections, so they could go shopping.
They were not short of money. When they returned to the stronghold, they could continue to look for money.
Two people from the Li Family Zhuangzi came out. They were a man and a woman. They were in charge of introducing the situation.
After leaving Zhuangzi, there was a trolley bus. It was free to get on the bus. The horse did not run fast, but the Tan family felt that it was very fast.
The bus stopped at the city gate. Someone got on, put in money, and reported the location.
"The tall wooden frame is blocking the city gate. The city gate can't be closed." Tan Shui noticed the situation and pointed at the city gate.
Someone beside her heard her accent and knew that she was an outsider. He said to her, "Don't close the city gate. It's open at night."
"What if there's a war?" Tan Hai asked.
"Li Dongzhu said that the enemy can reach Chang'an. It doesn't matter if the city gate is closed or not. We have the Sixteen Guards and the Winged Knights. We won't allow the enemy to attack. "
The man raised his chin proudly.
