Be the Mayor From Today - Chapter 1728
“Well, those too many young melons or female flowers should be thinned out, and the stems and vines should be properly topped to avoid insufficient nutrient supply.”
Liu Feng picked up the teacup and continued, “Larger melons can be wrapped in nets and hung in a firm place, and melons close to the ground can be padded with wooden boards to isolate them from the soil to prevent them from being-
Some worms were scavenged. ”
Because many insects feed on melons and fruits, if the pumpkins in production are placed on the soil.
Those insects are not polite, they will eat the pumpkin that is close to the soil beyond recognition.
“I see, I remember it all.” Shirley just stopped the pen in her hand. After listening to His Majesty’s explanation, the planting of pumpkins will not be difficult.
But it is definitely not an easy task, because there are still many things to pay attention to.
“Okay, if you remember, then I’m going to start the fifth step and the last-
step. ” Liu Feng said seriously.
“Yes.” Shirley did not dare to be vague, and immediately picked up the notepad and pen to record the last step.
“When pumpkin grows to the later stage, it will use the adventitious roots grown from the vines. At this time, the method of burying the stems must be adopted.”
After taking a sip of water, Liu Feng continued, “In this way, the output can be increased by about 20% to 10%.”
Others may not understand the increase rate of this output, but Shirley simply doesn’t know too much.
She covered her mouth in surprise and said, “This last step can actually increase the production of pumpkins!”
“Of course, the time of burying the stems will be after two or three batches of results, and then you have to do it when some sallow leaves appear on the roots.”
Liu Feng put down the teacup and continued, “Usually bury the 4-6 knots closest to the roots, and generally bury the 4-6 knots closest to the roots. The soil for stems should be fertile soil with a small amount of organic fertilizer and moist. ”
Shirley took notes seriously, raised her head and asked, “Your Majesty, then how deep should I be buried is more appropriate.”
“It’s probably around 15-25 cm. You can’t bury it too deep or too shallow. These will affect the production of pumpkins.”Liu Feng explained. “I see, I didn’t expect that there is so much knowledge about growing a pumpkin.”Sherry can be said to have benefited a lot today.
“It’s your first time planting pumpkins. If you still don’t understand anything, come and ask me first, don’t be afraid.” Liu Feng said seriously.
Because a lot of new crops have been added this year, most of the crops are more troublesome and fragile to plant, so you still have to pay attention to them, otherwise, it will be bad if you plant them all in the end.
.ask for flowers…
“Yes, Your Majesty, if there is something I don’t understand, I will definitely ask you.” Shirley nodded heavily.
“Next, there is the method of planting peas and winter melons that you want to ask. I will give you a book. The book is also written in detail. You can take it back and read it first. If you don’t understand it, ask me again.”Liu Feng said. .
“Really? Does Your Majesty still have books on this subject?” Shirley asked in surprise.
“Of course, I will give you a copy of all the books related to the crops you plant.”Liu Feng said in a big voice.
It took him a long time to translate all those books into the words here.
Although it is said that the Han Dynasty has begun to implement Chinese characters, everyone is in the state of just beginning to learn.
There is no way to eat a big fat man in one bite, so many times you need to memorize books with the words of this era.
Because many people in this era have not yet started to touch Chinese characters, but they are all talented people. It would be a bit too much time to teach them one-on-one teaching.
If there are books written in this era for them to watch at this time, Liu Feng can save a lot of time.
After they gradually got used to it and learned more Chinese characters, he could directly show them the books he bought from Earth.
“Thank you so much, I don’t know what I would have done without you.” Xue Li said excitedly.
She really admired His Majesty the King more and more in her heart, feeling as if he knew everything.
Maybe even the gods in the sky don’t know as much as His Majesty the King? Shirley always thought so.
“You’re welcome, is there anything else you don’t understand? You can ask me now.”
Liu Feng is not too troublesome.
It’s much better to help others with this aspect than to flip through those trivial documents.
“There is nothing I don’t understand now. If I don’t understand after reading those books, I will ask you again.” Xue Li said with a smile.
The girl can’t wait to report those books back to read them carefully. It doesn’t matter if she can read books in this area, it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t eat for a day.
“Hahaha..Okay..”Liu Feng smiled heartily.
Chapter 1991: Confidentiality must be done well
“Besides not knowing how to plant new crops, what else do you understand?”Liu Feng asked.
“For the time being, I don’t understand anything. I’ll first read the book that His Majesty gave me. If I really don’t understand it, I’ll ask you again.” Shirley smiled.
“Okay, then I’ll have someone send the book to the Department of Agriculture for you later.”Liu Feng softly”Thank you so much, Your Majesty, I really don’t know, what would I have done without you?” Xue Li was excited said.
Liu Feng picked up the teacup and shook it, and said lightly, “It is also my blessing to have you in the Department of Agriculture.”
It can be said that the existence of Ma Erniang in the Department of Agriculture is very lucky. She is not only smart but also very studious.
The knowledge related to agriculture can be mastered very quickly, and it is very handy to practice. “Zero seven zero”
Although there were many mistakes at the beginning, but after trying slowly, it became better and better.
If it wasn’t for Liu Feng’s reading more books than her, if you really want to compare it, she might not be as good as Ma Erniang.
The reason why she will read so many books to her now is to let her explore slowly by herself.
Anyway, the books for him are all translated text, so it is not too difficult to read, and there are vivid illustrations in it, which makes it easier to understand. “Your Majesty, the black oil fruit you let me grow has already begun to be produced in large quantities. It can fully adapt to the environment here. There is no need to go to the volcano to pick it.”
Shirley paused and continued, “And the stock of land production on our side is similar to that on the volcano’s side.”
Before, Liu Feng asked Ma Erniang to see the planting of black oil fruit, and wanted her to see how to make black oil fruit directly planted near Chang’an City.
After all, black oil fruit is far away from the volcanic area, and it takes a lot of time to pick it every time.
It would be very convenient if the black oil fruit could be moved to the vicinity of Chang’an City for planting.
Not only is it not easy to leak this precious resource, but it is also very convenient to pick and manage.
Now black oleifera is one of the most important energy sources in Chang’an City, whether it is the use of airships, steam trains, steam cars, etc., black oleifera is needed.
Its burning degree is much longer than that of ordinary firewood, so it must be very helpful to the Han Dynasty to be able to cultivate a large number of black oil fruit.
Originally, Liu Feng considered planting black oil fruit on two transfer stations in the sea, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was still very inappropriate.
At that time, the two transit stations on the sea, and people from another continent will also stop there. If someone with ulterior motives finds out, the unique resources of the Han Dynasty will be leaked.
If this resource is leaked, it will be a big blow to Chang’an City. At that time, all kingdoms can use black oil fruit as fuel.
