Chapter 381: Daming Agricultural Modernization

Two maids were continuously "initiated", and two techniques were passed down.
These are all scientific breeding techniques summed up through systematic research in later generations.
It not only includes site construction, sanitation and epidemic prevention, but also knowledge of chicken and duck growth laws, living habits, feed matching, artificial incubation, and post-processing of chicken and duck down and manure.
The two maids stood blankly for a while, only then did they digest and absorb the knowledge that emerged in their minds.
When the two opened their eyes, they looked at Lu Li like a god.
"Master, you...what kind of magic is this?"
The outspoken Lian'er yelled directly, "Master, you still know how to immortal?"
Myolie couldn't help but exclaimed, "It turns out...there is so much truth in raising chickens! Is this the magic of gods raising chickens? That's amazing!"
"Don't ask more!"
Lu Li sternly said, "The secret is not to be revealed. You must not tell the story of your young master! In addition, you two will take charge of the work of raising chickens and ducks at home in the future."
"Yes!"
The two girls hurriedly bowed to take their orders.
Although the "initiation" of the young master was not the same as they had hoped,...the two girls were overjoyed to obtain a "fairy art".
"Myolie, go and call the old butler."
Lu Li gave Xing'er a sentence, and then said to Lian'er: "Lian'er, you and Xing'er are both children?"
The so-called family has children, it means that the parents are servants of the Lu family.
"Yes!"
Lian'er nodded, "My Xing'er and I both have children. Our whole family is in Lu Mansion."
"That's fine! Go and call your family and Myolie's family."
Such servants who have been in the Lu family for generations are the most loyal. In addition, Lian'er and Xing'er are Lu Li's personal maids, their family members are more loyal and the possibility of betrayal is extremely low.
Naturally, Lu Li would make full use of such a person.
"Yes!"
Lian'er quickly took the order and hurried out of the study.
After a while, Myolie came in with the old butler.
"Master, what's your order?"
The old housekeeper walked in and hurriedly greeted Lu Li. The old butler had seen Lu Li clean up Lu Yan the previous time when he came back, and he became even more in awe of Lu Li.
In itself, the old housekeeper is also a loyal servant of the Lu family for generations. If nothing else, the next housekeeper will be the old housekeeper’s son.
"Uncle Sheng, call all your family over, I have something to tell you!"
That's what Lu Chengcheng thought. The techniques in the farming spree were passed on to the three families.
The old housekeeper, Xing'er, and Lian'er, the three families work together for Lu Li. They stand on top of each other and play a balancing role.
Afterwards, the old housekeeper brought his son and daughter-in-law. Lian'er also brought her parents and Xing'er's parents and brother to Lu Li.
"I have seen Master!"
The crowd bowed and saluted Lu Li.
"Calling you over today is because there is a big thing for you to do."
Lu Li again used the gimmick of "the technique of enlightenment" to fool everyone, and then passed the various planting and breeding techniques in the farming gift package to the three families.
After being "indicated" by Lu Li, countless knowledge suddenly popped up in everyone's mind.
After absorbing this knowledge, everyone looked at Lu Li, just like looking at a god.
What is Xianshu? This is Xianshu?
Master... Could it be that a fairy descended from the earth?
The incredible "fairy knowledge" in my mind, as well as this magical enlightenment technique, has proved that the young master is not a mortal!
At this moment, everyone's awe, loyalty, and admiration for Lu Li has reached the standard of a "mad believer", and it is no worse than the crazy fan group of Xiao Xianrou in later generations.
"The secret is not to be revealed! This matter must be kept strictly confidential today."
In the respect of everyone's eyes, Lu Li gave another order: "Besides, go down and gather people and prepare the site. I will give you the seeds and the improved breeds of poultry and livestock.
"Yes!"
Everyone hurriedly bowed to take their orders.
In the next few days, the three families acted separately, and under the unified deployment of the old housekeeper, they organized manpower to prepare for planting and breeding.
Lu Li also took out the crop seeds and poultry and livestock breeds in the farming gift package.
This "fairy technique" of summoning crop seeds and improved breeds of poultry and livestock out of thin air has blown up everyone's admiration value.
And... the poultry and livestock that Lu Li "summoned" were all frighteningly big.
One hundred Landrace pigs, each weighing a thousand catties. One hundred white-legged cattle are also the largest cattle in the world, with a height of nearly two meters at the shoulder and a weight of more than 3,000 catties.
The brahman chicken has a head height of 1.5 meters and a weight of more than 30 kilograms. The Toulouse goose has a head over two meters high and a weight over fifty catties.
The three families with "professional skills" immediately settled the seeds and poultry and livestock separately.
Fortunately, the Lu family was also a gentry landlord, and the family had sufficient food. Otherwise, so many poultry and livestock would be added at once, but there was not enough food to feed.
Everyone took over the task, but Myolie's brother Chen An was somewhat helpless.
"Master, everyone else has a hundred heads, how come there are only ten horses here?"
Chen An, who had acquired "professional horse-raising skills", couldn't help complaining to Lu Li.
"The horse is too eye-catching. Raise first, then take your time."
In the era of cold weapons, war horses are also strategic materials. It is normal for a gentry's family to raise a few horses. If there are more...what do you want to keep so many horses?
Now I took out ten Arabian war horses, which were also used to train Jia Ding. Otherwise, Lu Li wouldn't want to take out so many horses!
...
After dealing with the farming spree, Lu Li asked the old butler to choose twenty strong young men from the servants.
These little servants were Lu Li's future officers.
Next, every morning and evening, Lu Li led twenty small servants to run around the dry land in the dry land of the Lujia Country Estate to exercise.
During the day, Lu Li spent all his time reading.
February 15th was the time for the test in Huating County, and Lu Li still had to spend time studying and preparing for the test.
Naturally, Lu Li had read the books of the Four Books and Five Classics a long time ago, and he was able to recite them backwards, and he also fully understood the contents of these books. He even studied a lot of eight-part essays.
The lesson to be made up now is to fit this knowledge to the times, to conform to the characteristics of the times, to conform to mainstream ideas, and to integrate current affairs and politics.
These problems are not difficult to solve.
The Lu family is also a scholarly family. There are many books in the family, and there are many works by various contemporary literati. After reading these articles, you can understand the characteristics of the times.
As for current affairs politics, isn't there a "good friend who shared the spoils together" Yuan Zhixian?
Lu Li sent another painting to Yuan Zhixian and copied a poem by Zheng Banqiao: Hsinchu is higher than old bamboo branches, and it is all supported by veterans. There will be a new student next year, ten zhanglong and grandchildren around Fengchi.
Yuan Zhixian was overjoyed after watching it, and said with a smile: "I'm Lao Zhu, and Ziming is Hsinchu!"
"It's all supported by old people!"
Lu Li bowed his hand towards Yuan Zhixian.
"Go back and study hard!"
Yuan Zhixian smiled and nodded, "It will be the county test in a few days, and I am still looking forward to your "Ten Zhang Long Sun Nao Feng Chi"!"
...
February 15th.
The Huating County test officially kicked off.
The night before, Lu Li moved into the Lu family’s house in Huating County.
Twenty family members who participated in military training were asked by Lu Li to run from the Lu family mansion in Yunjian Township to Huating County in the name of long-distance training.
Early on the morning of the 15th, Lu Li packed up, picked up the test basket, and followed a group of candidates, queuing into the test room.
In other words, according to the level of the imperial examination, the county examination is called the "tong test", and those who have passed the county test are called "tongsheng".
So... is this a primary school graduation exam?
Looking down at himself, Lu Cheng's head felt a little strange.
As the world's top scientist, didn't even have a primary school diploma in the Ming Dynasty? I haven't graduated from elementary school in my 20s. I'm kind of sorry!
Turning his head and looking around, there were still a lot of middle-aged men and even a few old people with gray beard and hair coming to take the exam.
Well, the Ming Dynasty’s primary school diploma is really not easy to get!
Lined up and entered the examination room. After a body search, Lu Li received the number plate and found his examination room.
This is a small compartment as big as a palm, or an earth embryo room, full of dust and cobwebs. Can you repair it a bit?
After Lu Li entered the cubicle, he did a sanitary cleaning first, and then sat down with his nose pinched.
When the time came, the gong rang and the exam officially started.
When the paper was issued, Lu Li glanced at it. The first page was filled with blank questions, which was called "Tie Jing".
Turn over the paper, the second page is a short answer question. This is called "Mo Yi".
The last thing is the highlight-the composition topic, which is the stereotype.
Lu Li flipped through the test papers and didn't answer the questions right away. Instead, he spread a clean white cloth on the chopping board in front of him and laid out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone to make sure that he wouldn't be eliminated due to soiling the paper.
After making preparations, Lu Li calmly started grinding his ink, ready to answer the questions.
Lifting the pen to lick the ink, Lu Li scribbled on the surface. With Lu Li's master-level calligraphy skills, the italicized character "Guan Ge Ti" for the Ming Dynasty imperial examinations is naturally not a problem.
One by one, the square and square, round and full Guange style regular script, jumped out under Lu Li's writing.
There is no difficulty in filling in the blanks for Lu Li, just make sure that you don’t write typos, or write them in simplified characters.
It is almost normal for people who learn calligraphy to write traditional characters. Not only can write traditional characters, even seal characters, and even Oracle bone inscriptions!
The fill-in-the-blank question was answered quickly, and I saw it at a glance, and there was no error. Lu Li opened the blank-filled question paper, pressed it with a paperweight to dry it aside, and began to write the following short answer questions.
The short answer questions all have standard answers, which is "Zhu Zi Ji Zhu", which is Zhu Xi's understanding of the Four Books and Five Classics. This is the standard answer, no wrong word will work.
Therefore, this thing is said to be a short answer question, but it is no different from filling in the blanks.
These "standard answers" had long been kept in mind, and Lu Li was quick to write them. Soon after, the short answer questions were finished.
The next highlight is the composition question.
The first question: "The son said that Yan Yuan said that if you use it, you can do it, and if you give it away, you can hide it. But I and you have a good relationship."
Seeing this title, Lu Li was taken aback for a moment, as if...it seemed...when I was studying with Old Han, I read an eight-legged essay on this title!
Thinking back in my mind, the memory that I have never forgotten, turned out from the depths of my mind.
I did read this article. This is an eight-part essay written by a champion named Han Yan in the Qing Dynasty.
Is it suitable to be used for the primary school graduation certificate?
Lu Li curled his lips, forget it, too lazy to use his brains, just copy it up!
Therefore, Lu Li wrote: "The saint is suitable for hiding, and the person who is capable will only show it."
After writing the first sentence of the problem, copy it all the way to the end, and copy the entire article up.
It's easy!
After checking it carefully, he couldn't find any mistakes, Lu Li smiled and nodded. If the champion of the Qing Dynasty cannot get the primary school diploma of the Ming Dynasty, then I won't say anything.
...
At the end of the exam, Yuan Zhixian took the county education instruction and began to read the papers.
"Ah! Good words! Good words! Good words!"
Yuan Zhixian, who was reviewing the test papers, suddenly heard an instructor scream.
Good word?
Hearing this, Yuan Zhixian smiled. This should be Lu Li's test paper.
"bring here."
Yuan Zhixian gave a command from the court.
"Yes!"
The instructor hurriedly submitted the test paper.
Yuan Zhixian took a look at the test paper, and it was really good! The first-hand style of the pavilion, the writing is elegant and generous, and it is indeed Lu Li's pen.
With this word alone, it is no problem to pass the county test.
Yuan Zhixian smiled and continued to look through the test paper. Tie Jing is all right, Mo Yi is all right. Reading the four books and the five classics is really solid.
After reading the first few pages, Yuan Zhixian turned to the eight-part essay at the back.
At this look, Yuan Zhixian's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but admire a few times: "Good! Good! Such a magnificent character is really rare!"
Such an essay is enough to test the number one scholar, and it is really wasteful to test the county test.
Lifting the pen, Yuan Zhixian drew a red circle on the scroll page, which was passed.
A few days later, the county test was over, and Zhang hung up the list on the wall outside the county government office.
Lu Li's name suddenly ranked first, that is, the county trial case.
"Congratulations to the son of Yunjian Township, Lu Li, who ranked first in the high school county exam and ranked first in the case."
There were three waves of Annunciation. This is normal operation. Announcement of good news by the servants is also a good job and can get a good money.
Lu Li ordered people to send Xiqian~EbookFREE.me~ to accept congratulations, but he didn't feel anything in his heart.
What is so happy about a Ming Dynasty primary school diploma?
If it wasn't for fame and social status, who would test this stuff? Learning that does not help social reality at all can be treated as a literary genre.
Back at the Lu Family Courtyard, Lu Li was greeted with another wave of congratulations.
Even the old lady laughed from ear to ear, and was very happy for Lu Li's first fame.
Everything is inferior, only high in reading. For the people of the Ming Dynasty, this matter was of great significance.
It's a pity that Lu Li didn't feel anything at all. It's better to see the chickens, ducks, pigs and cows at home and be happy!
The crops and livestock in the farming spree, as well as various planting and breeding techniques, this is the leap-forward development of agricultural technology in the Ming Dynasty!
