Chapter 2109: Spring ploughing and farming go hand in hand

Because it took time to help Martin Luther to become famous, James Bond deliberately delayed Martin Luther’s progress in publishing the program under Marlin’s instruction.

Of course, Bond also has good reasons. He believes that Martin Luther must not only criticize the sales of indulgences, but also avoid direct conflict with the Holy See. After all, he has not experienced religious wars, and the influence of the Holy See in the German region is still very large. If one is not careful, it is easy to lose oneself.

Therefore, Bond suggested that Martin Luther aim at Tetzel, the messenger who sold indulgences in Germany, and even the cardinal Giovanni di Lorenzo de Medici who was in charge of this matter (that is, the future Pope Leo X) must avoid.

Because Bond, as a general of the intelligence service, has heard that Marin intends to support Giovanni di Lorenzo de Medici in running for the next pope. Therefore, firing on Giovanni di Lorenzo de Medici at this time will undoubtedly affect his election for pope.

Therefore, the best way is to buckle all the pots on the head of Tetzel, pretending that the Pope and Archbishop Giovanni di Lorenzo de Medici are deceived. In this way, after giving the two big men down the steps, the two big men would not tear their faces to death Martin Luther.

Martin Luther was not happy at first, but after talking to Frederick III, Frederick III also agreed to avoid the two bigwigs. After all, the Holy See is so powerful right now, and the princes are not willing to turn their faces with the Holy See easily.

Moreover, Bond also proposed to oppose indulgences first. When the influence becomes large and there are a large number of supporters, the princes will "take over" (confiscate) most of the property (mainly real estate) of the local church and the idea of ​​taking over the collection of tithes.

In this way, the Holy See would not realize the seriousness of it from the beginning. When the reaction comes, it's too late...

"Talent!" Frederick III, the elector of Saxony, looked at Bond with admiration. I thought it was a silver player, but I didn't expect it to be a diamond...

But how did he know that even though Bond was clever and clever, he couldn't think of such a clever idea. All this was instructed by Marin. He just learns faster and executes better.

Frederick III gave birth to the idea of ​​soliciting, but how could Bond dare to agree? His family is still in Beihai Country. And, what is good about being a priest? Wouldn't it be incense to make a hereditary aristocracy for future generations? Marin agreed, and if the mission is successful, he can be arranged to be hereditary baron lord in America. This is much cooler than being a priest, and it is very attractive to Bond, who was born as a serf. Besides, he didn't dare to betray Marin...

Martin Luther saw that Frederick III, the most respected person, also supported this view, so he did not insist on it. Second, he began to improve and revise the program to make it more moderate and avoid direct conflict with the Holy See. Bond also achieved the purpose of delaying the process.

…

With the passage of time, spring plowing in the North Sea country has also been in full swing. This time, it was very different. Because of the Prader plow cart with 6 to 12 horses, the efficiency of spring ploughing is very high. The three ploughshares of this plow cart work together, plus more horses, so they can cultivate 20 to 30 mu a day, and the efficiency is five or six times that of the previous two-horse single plow. Shuangma and single plough used to cultivate one acre every day (6 acres, the same is true for the acre unit). On the other hand, the farmland for single cattle is only three or four acres per day, and the efficiency is even slower. Compared with cattle plowing, the Prader plow cart is more than 7 times faster than cattle plowing...

With such high efficiency, the speed of spring ploughing in Beihai Country is very fast. The original amount of cultivated land for one or two months was completed in less than half a month.

This is also because there is too much arable land and labor is not enough to serve and harvest, and there is not enough fertilizer. If there are no restrictions on population and fertilizers, let alone 20 million mu, 30 million mu can be cultivated.

…

However, because of some things that happened before, Marin suddenly changed some thoughts...

Because of what? It's because of the previous case about wanting to relocate the Ryazan Principality to St. Petersburg. At that time, Marin came up with the British two-bed system popular in England in the 19th century.

This idea was originally intended to replace the use of fertilizer. After all, whether it is legume alfalfa that can fix nitrogen, or sheep dung and cow dung, it can be used to fatten the field.

Marin suddenly felt—Why can't we engage in the British two-garden system in China?

The reason why he wanted to engage in the British two-bed system was not to "restoring the soil", but to obtain enough fertilizer. After all, cattle and sheep can produce a lot of manure. Moreover, the feces of cattle and sheep can be directly fermented and used to feed earthworms. It's not like human beings, it still needs to be dealt with, it's very troublesome.

As a result, the spring plowing in the North Sea was interrupted in the middle...

Ma Lin made urgent adjustments-the 6 million mu of original cultivated land under his name and the newly reclaimed 4 million mu, a total of 10 million mu of land, were re-planned.

The plan requires that all manors under the name of Marin must set aside the most barren area for planting alfalfa, raising sheep and horses. Of course, you can also raise dairy cows.

Needless to say, sheep can shear wool, produce goat's milk, and eat mutton. Well, it can also produce sheep dung, which can be used to raise earthworms. Needless to say horses, horse farming is now popular in farmland, and the importance of horses has greatly increased.

The Eastern European Mongolian horse (refer to Don Hippo), which is currently popular in the North Sea, usually does not need to eat food, just eat grass, and only need to feed some food when working, which is very cost-effective.

At present, the horses in the North Sea country are mainly Eastern European Mongolian horses that can be mixed by eating grass, and Eastern European Mongolian horses that are crossed with local horses. Anyway, they are all grazing horses, and don’t need to feed a lot of food like native European horses.

Although the Eastern European Mongolian horses are not as tall and strong as the European native horses, there is no need to feed them! How expensive is food in Europe? No need to feed food, save money for the old nose!

Therefore, the average manor can raise dozens of horses without spending too much. You can pull out the cultivated land during spring plowing, or you can pull a cart when you are fine. Of course, when plowing the land and pulling the cart, you still have to feed some grain. Of course, it can be fed with the forage.

As for cows... it seems that they are not very useful, but the role of cows is good. Milk can supplement children, and can also produce dairy products such as cream and cheese.

In addition, the dung of horses, cattle and sheep has another magical use-as fuel!

Yes, you can learn from the Mongols, dry sheep dung, cow dung and horse dung and use it as fuel for cooking!

Mongolian grasslands are semi-arid grasslands, deserts are very common, and there are no trees at all. Therefore, there is no firewood to burn. But hay, in winter, must be given priority to cattle and sheep, how can they be willing to burn it?

The sun-dried manure of horses, cattle and sheep, because there are a lot of cellulose residues, can be directly used as fuel for fire.

Of course, this depends on the region. If there are more forests in the inland area, it is not rare to burn this, just pick up some dead branches and leaves to burn.

However, there is one area that is very short of firewood, and that is-the Netherlands!

The Netherlands is a plain near the sea and is densely populated. Therefore, trees and so on have basically been cut down. This also led to the lack of firewood fuel in the Dutch plains.

If it is a city with well-developed traffic, you can transport some briquettes and briquettes to burn them. On the other hand, rural farms have inconvenient road traffic. Instead of spending money on coal, it’s better to dry some horse, cow and sheep dung and burn it directly.

There is no way. Even if Marin builds roads vigorously, he can only build roads in various towns and go to rural villages, which is troublesome. Even for later generations of China, it was only after 2010, when the economy was very developed, that every village had cement roads. This is still the eastern region, and many parts of the western region have not been realized until Marin crosses.

Therefore, village access is unrealistic, and Marin can't afford the money. The inland areas of Germany are okay, and dirt roads can also be used. The Dutch coastal area like West Friesland has a humid and rainy climate, and the dirt road will become muddy after it rains. If you wait for the transport of briquettes and briquettes, it will probably be bad.

Therefore, it is better to raise more horses, cattle and sheep and use dry manure as firewood. In this way, a lot of trouble can also be saved. Moreover, the source is simple and does not cost.

The burned dry manure can also be collected and used to raise earthworms. At most, it is necessary to add more rot impurities such as dead grass and broken leaves to increase the taste of earthworms.

Marin estimated that if he could raise enough horses, cattle and sheep, it would not only solve the problem of insufficient fertilizers, but also produce a lot of wool, cow milk, meat, and horses for labor.

At that time, once a war breaks out, Marin can easily recruit a large number of horses from the folks. UU Reading www.uukanshu. com facilitates marching and transportation of supplies. Moreover, by relying on these horses, many cavalry seeds can be cultivated...

However, because the plan was changed in a hurry. Therefore, this time, Marin did not have time to promote this British two-bed system in a timely manner.

So, it's as much as you can promote. As for the area that was changed to a ranch, it is also a fate. Of course, it cannot be said to be changed to pasture. Instead, the wasteland and some relatively barren areas not close to the river are transformed into pastoral areas.

Moreover, just like later generations of European and American farms, fences must be built in each pastoral area. In this way, it is possible to prevent horses, cattle and sheep from breaking through the boundaries between farmland and pastoral areas, and eating wheat seedlings in farming areas...

In short, everything seemed too rushed. But Marin is not in a hurry, and now it is only a temporary motive. To be truly standardized, it is estimated that we will have to wait for spring plowing next year before re-planning.

Even the location of some estates must be adjusted. After all, in the future, if you want to set aside a large area to raise horses, cattle and sheep, the layout of the manor cannot be the same as before. Because horses, cattle and sheep are important assets, we must prevent loss and theft. Therefore, the manor is best built on the border between the farming area and the pastoral area. In this way, cultivated land and pastoral areas can be considered at the same time.

As for the houses of the original manor...To be honest, the adobe houses that Marin promoted before were also very low-cost, and it would not cost much if they abandoned the new building.

Of course, if you build a new building, because the manors in various places have accumulated a little capital, the houses can be repaired better.

All in all, the future Beihai Country Manor, especially the manor under the name of Marin, will have the phenomenon of farming and animal husbandry advancing side by side. Cultivated land is the main source, and livestock is supplemented. The animal husbandry mainly provides fertilizer raw materials, but also produces a large amount of meat and by-products, comprehensively increasing the output of the manor...
