Chapter 65 Advanced Productivity

"Thank you, General. The villain also wants to ask the general. It is the wheel of the wooden ox cart. It is absolutely fine to make it with wood. I want to wrap a layer of iron ring outside to make it firm and solid."

"Any iron has the characteristics of heat that expands when it is heated and shrinks when it is cold. When making an iron ring, it is slightly smaller than the wooden wheel. When installing, the iron ring is red. After installation, it is watered with cold water." Lu Bu said.

Mo Jun suddenly realized and said, "The general is really a master."

"In the name of the government, I will call on carpenters from other carpenter shops to come to you to learn the techniques of making wooden ox carts. You can charge some appropriate fees, and do not want to make money, just keep the bank. The main purpose is to promote the wooden ox carts as soon as possible." Lu Bu said.

"A good general, if anyone who has learned it, the villain will give his money to teach and only charges 200 ounces of food and material. The most important point is the production of wooden wheels."

"Okay, it's time to charge appropriately. There are more than 100 registered carpenter shops near Xuzhou City, and at least more than 1,000 carpenters in rural areas are at least 1,000. This is a huge group that has grown the wooden ox carts and improved the production and living standards of the people." Lu Bu arranged.

Mo Jun thanked him again and went back.

The wooden ox wheelbarrow is a light cargo vehicle, which replaces the shoulder-carrying and carrying. A wooden ox cart can reach a small donkey, which is really convenient. Therefore, the government office should vigorously promote it to benefit the people.

Advanced productivity replaces backward productivity, which is inevitable for historical development, and Lu Bu is the representative of advanced productivity in this era.

Mo Jun left and went back to study the Wenhou Shuiche and the Muniu Cart carefully.

Lu Bu wanted to see how the military farming progressed, so he brought Feng Xiong and several personal soldiers to Chengnan on horseback.

The end of the growth of potatoes is the same every day. It was already very good to harvest potatoes damaged by wild boars a few days ago. Now it seems that the potatoes are cracked.

More than a dozen water trucks are pumping water and irrigating potatoes.

Qin Yilu's originally white skin turned into bronze. Although he didn't work, he managed the fields every day, and was exposed to the wind and sun.

"Lord, come and check potatoes again," said Qin Yilu.

Lu Bu shook his head: "It's not about checking potatoes, it's about checking military farms. There are so many crops, only potatoes are not good enough."

Qin Yilu said: "The potatoes should have entered the enlargement period mentioned by the lord these days. The leaves are very green, but they have not rained a lot recently. More than a dozen water trucks are simmering the ground day and night, and hundreds of water tangerines are also lifting water."

Lu Bu nodded and said, "You are right. At this time, the water has caught up. One acre of land can increase the yield by more than 2,000 kilograms. But there is not too much water, and potatoes are prone to bursting. I just saw a few acres of potatoes, and the ground has begun to crack, which shows that the potatoes grow very well. Everyone's efforts have finally been effective."

"I regret it now. Potatoes are so rich, so there should be more corn and sweet potatoes at the beginning. They are still seedlings, and there is nothing to see." Qin Yilu said.

The potato fields were five or six places apart, and the group rode over there.

The corn has grown to waist-length height and is still growing quite well.

"Very good, very good. Growing faster after already at this height, and you can get a good harvest in at most fifty days." Lu Bu said happily.

Qin Yilu said: "So fast? I don't have any ears yet."

"There are no ears, but they will grow soon. The corn yield is calculated by drying, which looks much lower than the potato yield, but in fact it is almost the same. You can grow corn when you harvest early potatoes, and buckwheat or rapeseed when you harvest early corn. In short, you must not let it be idle. The corn is full of treasures, and straw can be fed to animals." Lu Bu said.

Qin Yilu said: "Yes, there were still hares coming to eat a few days ago."

As for sweet potatoes, they are still inconspicuous. The sweet potato seedlings are only one foot long, a small tree.

"The growth period of sweet potatoes is long, so there is no need to worry. They will not grow all over the ground until the heavy rain in summer, so weeding is a bit more troublesome." Lu Bu said.

Qin Yilu said: "This place was a wasteland last year. If sweet potatoes cannot grow in summer, the field will probably be covered with purslane."

"The military farming and breeding should be connected and should be used as a whole. Grass should be removed from the field and transported to the breeding farm, raise chickens, ducks, geese, and sheep and pigs." Lu Bu said.

Qin Yilu suggested: "Lord, our pig farming is too concentrated. For example, the weeds here need to be transported to the pig farm for more than ten places, which is too troublesome. It is better to spread it out and build dozens of pig farms in the fields. It just so happens that the guard houses of the pig farm can provide Tun Ding's rest and accommodation, and there is no need for professional pig farming staff. Tun Ding will do the work by the way."

"It makes sense, it is indeed inappropriate to be too far away. After all, Tun Ding relies on his way. Tun Ding relies on his efforts to do so. Tun Ding relies on the New Year. I will arrange to build dozens of new small pig farms, each covering an area of ​​two or three acres, and raising about five pigs." Lu Bu said.

"Ah, there are too few, only five." Qin Yilu said in surprise.

"There are quite a lot. Now there are five pigs, and there are fifty pigs in a year. Our Xuzhou is in chaos and development is not easy." Lu Bu said with emotion.

After checking, I found that the grain crops were pretty good. The people in the towns were really hard, and they were basking in the sun.

The cabbage and rapeseed in the vegetable field are almost at the end, and most of them are not decent. The treasures transported the cabbage with too many insects to the goose farm by the river, and thousands of big geese were eating happily on the river beach.

However, eggplant and cucumbers have begun to bloom, and beans have also climbed up, and they are growing very well.

Qin Yilu said: "Lord, there are too many people employed in thousands of acres of vegetable fields. Can you recruit some strong women and specialize in managing vegetable fields? Refugees from other places want to join the military farm. In addition, there is insufficient wheelbarrows, and General Manager Wang said there is no inventory anymore."

When Lu Bu thought about it, women can do it too. Women are not good at working as men.

"Okay, a large number of strong women are recruiting. Now this is the rule, and food and accommodation are in charge, and there is nothing else." Lu Bu said.

Qin Yilu said: "It's good to live these days. It's okay to keep food and accommodation. We are not tired from working here, and we won't beat people."

"How much do you think you need for a wheelbarrow?" Lu Bu asked.

"The more people, the better. Now there are 13,000 people in the city. The lord asked to recruit strong women and can expand to 20,000 people at once. Now there are only a hundred carriages and more than a thousand wheelbarrows. There must be at least three thousand wheelbarrows in the gap." Qin Yilu said.

Lu Bu said: "If you don't be a boss, you don't know that the firewood and rice are expensive. You have to spend money on everything you do. Well, I'll find a way to transfer 1,500 vehicles for you. All departments are asking me, the lord, for things. Food is the top priority and must be maintained first."
