I Love Farming - Chapter 28

Cui Qichao rested for half a month in the apartment prepared by ljj company. Of course, for him, this was more like a torture, which caused him to make Lin Lin’s office full of green plants.

For the psychological safety of the actors, the ljj company must ensure that they have a rest period of at least half a month. During this period, a psychiatrist is also evaluated to help them better escape from the impact of the virtual plane.

Half a month later, Cui Qichao sat in the studio again.

Lin Lin: “Mr. Cui, I wish you every success in your work.”

“Thank you.” Cui Qichao nodded slightly to her, and a familiar password came from her ear. “Ready for transfer.”

“three.”

“two.”

“One!”

With a sense of weightlessness, Cui Qichao shouted again: “geronimo!”

…

The world is turning, and the colors are restored before the eyes. Cui Qichao has come to the level of the Middle Ages. He is in Northumberland, a baron’s territory, with a total area of ​​40,000 to 50,000 acres including unexplored land. Here is the data Cui Qichao automatically converted into Chinese standards.

This masonry castle was built on a high ground, with gray faces, and the fireplace, tapestries, and utensils in the room were too crude for Cui Qichao, and only had a small window hole, which caused the interior to be uncomfortably wet.

Cui Qichao went to the window and took a look. The castle is located in the highlands, surrounded by deep trenches, and along the highlands is the manor. You can see a large area of ​​land. There are only young crops, and there are scattered farm houses and farmers. From a distance, it looks like a little black spot, the river runs through, and there are woods farther away.

This is probably the only place where he is slightly relieved. The planting area is much larger than c …

Cui Qichao’s identity here, named Cui Stein, has just inherited the baron led by Northumberland. The original Baron Northumberland died unexpectedly at an early age and had no time to regenerate his heirs, so the territory was attributed to his close relatives in accordance with the law of inheritance.

Among his close relatives, Cui Qichao became a new baron because of his cousin’s cousin and the support of the church.

According to the habits of the ljj company, the existence of this archbishop may be for Cui Qichao. After all, it is only the second plane that Cui Qichao has experienced, and it is also the first time for male frequency recording.

Cui Qichao looked around for a week and couldn’t find where Xiaobai was. I didn’t know where ljj had arranged it. He didn’t want to stay in the room. It happened that he just went out, and a servant came to report: “Master Baron, the serf caught a nest of cats and sent it to the castle. Just when the priest saw it, asked if he was lucky. Handle these evil animals with you. ”

“…” Cui Qichao was silent for a while.

“Priest priest”, he knew what was going on. It was set that he had just arrived in Northumberland, where the priest would have a meal with him after a while and get close. But what does the kitten have to do with evil animals?

Just like when C was big, Cui Qichao did not have such detailed information, and it is impossible to know that there was no shepherd cat at that time. And now, he also thought about it for a while before he realized that, in this era, were cats not companion animals, not working animals, but everyone shouted … evil animals?

More importantly, Cui Qichao thought, wouldn’t there be his little white in those cats? ?

“Take me to see.” Cui Qichao said vaguely.

The servant responded and took Cui Qichao to the lobby of the main building. Cui Qichao walked down the stairs and saw that the priest in a robe was lowering his head and playing with three kittens just two months old.

When they saw the new owner of the castle come down, these people showed respect, and saluted him, trying to show the best description.

The priest, including his priest, also put away his feet and said hello, “Her Lord Baron, I just saw these cats just after I prayed. It’s really bad.”

Because Cui Qichao is supported by the local church and has a close relationship with the archbishop, the priest deliberately brought a bit of affection when talking to him.

“That’s really bad luck, William.” Cui Qichao said dryly. “Come, put these evil creatures in my room, and I will personally … abuse them.”

Although the wording of the baron is overkill, in general, people still have no opinion.

The priest William had hoped to break the cat’s legs with the baron, but the baron directly caused the cat to be taken away and disposed of alone. He could only glare at the servant, only to think that the servant did not communicate clearly, otherwise the baron How could he refuse him unintentionally.

Cui Qichao took a look. The cats were different in color, white. This should be white and orange. There was also a sheriff’s color, which was the most evil in the eyes of the priest because it was too dark.

The priest William was shocked, and it was time to eat.

This is an intimate meal by the baron and the priest, supported by the archbishop. The stewards and knights of Northumberland do not share meals. They manage the tax, farming, police, etc. in the territory for the master, and the knight is Guarding territorial security. When Lord Baron had just arrived last night, they had slapped the old man’s fart happily.

In order to entertain the master priest and the baron just arrived, the cook prepared for a long time, sifting the noodles finely and making white bread.

Remove the hanging meat from the kitchen and blanch it with boiling water. The smell of the meat that had been hanging for seven days was immediately clean.

There is also a broth made of expensive saffron and crushed swan meat, showing a beautiful golden yellow color, and a little rare pepper and some dill are simply tempting.

There are also fuchsia carrot pieces. Although the vegetables are not important, they look bright and full …

Cui Qichao’s face became more and more ugly when a dish of proud dishes was brought up. I turned the carrot and it was raw. He barely scratched two pieces, only feeling the smell of earth.

The broth, the color of the broth is bright, but the taste is poisonous, with the slight sweetness of some saffron, I don’t know what is added, but also with astringency and other flavors, so that he did not recognize it What kind of minced meat comes from.

White bread was rough and tasteless, and there was only a small piece, and Cui Qichao finished eating. As for the large piece of pork, Cui Qichao vomited when he smelled it. Not only was it suspected of being spoiled for too long, but the pig had never been castrated, and the meat had a lingering odor.

He didn’t want to taste any wine.

On the other hand, William, the priest, ate with great interest, and tasted the spice inside, which was greatly praised. Looking at His Excellency Baron again, he seemed to have a bad appetite. After eating bread and tasting a few bites, he would not move. Instead, he took an appetizing snack, roasted apples and baked it, but his expression did not look like enjoyment.

“Sir, aren’t you feeling well?” William asked with concern. “I heard that you have lived with your family in the East for a long time and just came back a while ago. Does it make you feel a little uncomfortable with the climate of Northumberland? adapt?”

It’s not the climate, it’s the taste. Cui Qichao barely smiled, “Yeah, have you been to the East?”

Because the ljj company has been overhead, they say that the East is not a place with Huaxia, but it is also very far away. As far as the whole Northumberland, only he has probably been.

Sure enough, William shook his head and expressed his willingness to listen to the customs there.

“It’s nothing, it’s delicious.” Cui Qichao now misses a cafeteria, and he thinks that the cafeteria before the reform is a hundred times better than these. At least, those vegetables are modern-day, they are cooked, the meat is fresh, and the seasonings are normal.

The medieval nobility did not live as well as their family, Xiao Bai, of course, it was Xiao Bai from the previous plane …

William was a bit skeptical, “The craftsmanship of the Northumberland chef is already among the best I have tasted. It is hard to imagine that there are more superior in the world, which makes it difficult for you to accept these delicious dishes.”

Cui Qichao: “…”

Their conversation passed into the servant with his ears up and the ear of the cook who was eavesdropping against the wall, and the cook turned to cry in the eyes of others. After that, the new master didn’t like her dishes and couldn’t even eat them.

Like the priest, she did not feel that the dishes she made would be unpalatable or even delicious. She believes this is because the taste of Lord Baron has been changed by the East and she cannot accept her dishes.

However, in the end, she may be replaced. The thought of this made the chef’s eyes dark.

…

After talking with His Excellency the Baron, he faintly felt that he might have spent too much time in the East, and his speech was sometimes confusing.

But he felt that the young baron might not be a good person. He was as aggressive as he was suppressing his temper, and also accorded with the pride of the young and the nobility of the nobles. He was willing to believe that the other party did not show up in front of himself because of the church relationship.

After the priest left, Cui Qichao asked for some goat’s milk, pretending to drink it and brought it back to the room.

The three kittens were **** in the corner of the room, but now they snuggled together and fell asleep. Cui Qichao walked over with the goat’s milk and shouted softly, “Little white, little white?”

The kittens don’t know whether he was awakened by the smell of goat milk or awakened by him.

The three kittens all crawled towards Cui Qichao. Cui Qichao held the white cat and said pitifully: “Little white …”

He a little regretted that LJJ had brought Xiaobai, but he did not expect this place to be so hostile to cats.

The white cat hummed and tried to keep his head close to the goat’s milk in his other hand, and did not respond to Cui Qichao’s shout.

Cui Qichao was about to give him goat’s milk, and found that the black cat lifted its claws to pull on its trouser legs. It looked like a wave.

“…?” Cui Qichao thought in his mind, and said to the black cat with suspicion, “Little white?”

Black cat: “Meow Meow!”

Cui Qichao: “…”

Cui Qichao: “Sit down.”

The black cat dropped its hind legs and sat down firmly.

Cui Qichao: “Lying.”

The black cat lay down first, then turned sideways, a standard lying position.

Looking up again, watching Cui Qichao resentfully.

Cui Qichao: “………”

Cui Qichao put the white cat down. What’s wrong with ljj company? Although Xiaobai was also a black and white flower, it was mostly white and not as thorough as black.

In particular, there is a white cat next to it, and Cui Qichao can hardly shout the name “Little White” to it.

Seeing Cui Qichao recognizing himself, Xiaobai came forward to the ground and drank his head in a bowl to drink goat’s milk.

I did not expect that Cui Qichao, the demon, really brought it to this plane. He wanted to lose his temper, but today ’s encounter made Xiaobai only care about eating. He almost did n’t starve to death, or thought he was being trampled by medieval people. dead.

When Xiaobai was full, she gave up the remaining goat’s milk to the other two howling kittens.

“Well, I knew I had them change your data to make a cow or a horse …” Cui Qichao whispered softly. In that case, it’s much more valuable at this time, don’t worry about being killed easily.

Xiaobai’s hair exploded, and shuddered.

Cui Qichao still wants it to be a cow and a horse?

…

When the servants in the castle saw the baron master appear again, he had a rope in his hand, and the other end of the rope was tied to the black □ cub’s neck. I wonder where the other two cats went, and whether they have been master To kill.

What surprised them was that the master would shake the rope from time to time, and then the kitten would lie down, or roll, or even stand up, and the two front paws would smash at the master!

Everyone took a breath, did this evil cat start begging for mercy after being tortured by the master?

But the lord, their new baron, the heart of the stone, did not give this cat a happy, but kept holding it. It seems that the master wants to torture it longer for pleasure.

Lord Baron is a person blessed by the archbishop. He is not afraid of this cat. Others can’t help but hide after seeing the kitten. He was a little afraid that the master would not play with cats enough, and he would play with these poor people.

See, after the master had played enough, he picked up the cat and put it in his pocket, and the half-dead kitten was already motionless.

Cui Qichao and Xiaobai cooperated in a scene to make Xiaobai behave as if he was being abused by him, thinking that he loves the people like a child, and loves cats … It ’s not that love, but it ’s okay. Pervert lord.

However, Cui Qichao still needs to be “perverted”.

——Cui Qichao called a farm officer and asked about the farming situation in his territory in detail.

The agricultural officer introduced him. Northumberland, like most southern territories, uses a two-plant rotation system, that is, the land in the manor is divided into two parts, which are cultivated in turns. If you plant this one this year, you will rest and plant it. Let this Block recovery restores ground power.

Cui Qichao: “This is not good, waste.”

The agricultural officer thought that the new master may be very, very ignorant of agricultural affairs, and he explained to Cui Qichao. Now in the land of the old man, if the year is good, then every year, the least yield of wheat can yield more than 50 kilograms per acre.

If the year is not good, the harvested grain is not enough for the next sowing, or even the crop is absolutely impossible.

“But if you continue to cultivate and the soil is not restored, then the reduction in harvest is absolute.” Said the agricultural official.

This is a terrible harvest. Even if Cui Qichao has seen it in the data, he feels very distressed. Not to mention the other, together with the Chinese farmers of the era, the yield per mu of farming was ten times higher than that of them.

Cui Qichao: “There is always a way, without reducing income, I have seen some in the East.”

Why is the output so low? Planing away all crops, farming methods, and even seeds, the biggest factor in planting land is the “field” itself, and the people of the Middle Ages did not fertilize the field.

It is true that soil fertility is limited and proper land cultivation is required, and over-cultivation is not allowed. However, if fertilization is not applied at all, the fertile land can easily reduce production and yield. It is a great waste to use their method of raising and planting land.

At this point, we must pay attention to reasonable arrangements. In this regard, the people of Huaxia have rich experience. Anyway, Cui Qichao doesn’t surname Cui if he doesn’t plant the land.

When the agricultural officer heard this, the young master turned out to insist on wanting to plow. This method was also used before. As a result, it exhausted the land and planted for two years and rested for three years, which is far less advanced than the two nursery system.

To say that there is no way to reduce income in the East, he is very skeptical that the master is young and knows how much inside information. It should be relatively fertile, but it will certainly become barren for many years.

Alas, the aristocratic masters were ridiculous, and he only dared to complain in his heart when he thought about it.

Cui Qichao changed the subject directly. “Well, please tell me something else, such as what crops are in the field, what kind of land are they.”

The farm official answered honestly, just after March, barley and oats were planted in the field, and fruits, carrots, kale, parsnips, etc. were planted in the vegetable garden. It is worth mentioning that because Northumberland has a lot of white soil, the amount of oats planted will be larger.

On some white soils, oats and cabbage can still grow, and on some white soils, even oats cannot survive.

“White clay?” Cui Qichao asked again.

This made the agricultural officer aware that the master did not understand farming. After all, before the inheritance of Northumberland, the master did not manage the territory. “Yes, white clay, it is difficult to grow any crops on it.”

Cui Qichao asked what it looked like, and found that the white soil that the agricultural officer said was saline-alkali land. This is probably because of the white precipitate on it.

It is difficult to grow crops on salinized land, and oats and cabbage are highly uncomfortable. They can also grow on light saline-alkali land, but medium and heavy saline-alkali land cannot even grow these salt-tolerant crops.

When asked further, Cui Qichao was even more speechless.

Not only is saline-alkali land, this Northumberland land is not particularly large, but it has all five poisons, because the water conservancy facilities are too primitive and lack of water, as well as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, resulting in low crop yields, small seeds, and slow growth. , Yellow color, etc. are all basic.

No wonder one acre of land can only produce tens of kilograms of wheat. Other crops have higher yields than wheat, but they are also limited. The specific concept is that in modern times, it is normal for heavy people to eat more than a pound of food every day. If there is meat, it may be less. That is to say, how many people can afford such an acre capacity?

However, at this time, the real heavy-duty people, those serfs, could not afford food, and most of the time they could only order wild vegetables and beans.

Step by step, think about soil improvement first. Cui Qichao supported his chin and thought, “You make people ride horses, and show me every plant I can see, including weeds, every kind of land, including wasteland and woodland. Come back. ”

In the ancient times, Shennong tasted Baicao, and now he has to pull all the plants in the territory.

The agricultural officer’s mouth widened and said stupidly, “Ah …?”

Cui Qichao looked at the agricultural officer with the eyes of “Is your hearing damaged?”

The farm official shut up immediately. He must admit that although the young man didn’t know much about farming, he was indeed a noble family with a terrifying momentum.

…

After talking to the agricultural officer, Cui Qichao walked to the kitchen, and to be honest, he is still hungry.

The kitchen is not so much a kitchen as it is just a space slightly separated from the lobby and not yet completely independent.

The chef saw Cui Qichao and showed fear. After a short period of time, the castle has spread all over. The baron master not only has a picky tongue, but also likes torture animals, and his temper is a bit cruel.

“Hold.” Cui Qichao put the cat into the hands of the cook.

The cook was caught off guard and could only hold it.

Cui Qichao turned around in the kitchen, and asked the maid next to him to take out the well-preserved spices one by one, and looked at each ingredient, and finally said, “I said, you do it.”

The cook looked at the master blankly, and after a while he reacted. The master didn’t eat much before, but now he is hungry. However, probably dissatisfied with her craftsmanship, she even directed her … she blushed and felt completely shameful.

Cui Qichao took Xiaobai back into his pocket and said, “Go wash your hands. You just touched the cat.”

At this time, the person did not like cleaning. He noticed that the cook’s hands were not clean. However, the cook touched the evil black cat again, and under the master’s fault, she had to obediently wash her hands. Immediately after washing, Cui Qichao found out that the cook was originally very white. Thinking of the food at noon, she couldn’t help but feel a little nauseated.

The chef stood timidly in front of Cui Qichao and was instructed to take off the freshest piece of lamb. She wanted to say that this piece of meat had not had enough time, but was shocked by the cold face of the master.

Under the command of Cui Qichao, the handymen and the maids were also busy, some cutting meat, some burning fire, setting up a stove, and preparing spices. They put pepper, garlic, and salt on the pieces of meat. After a while, they were brushed with olive oil. They were careful not to let a drop of oil be wasted. Even so, there is still a dissatisfied expression on the face of the master, making everyone more careful.

Next, prepare a large clean cabbage leaf and spread it on a wooden plate. Instead of cutting the meat on the table, it is now split and grilled on skewers.

The master stared at them tightly. No mistakes were allowed. Even the height of the lamb and the amount of firewood had to be controlled. The maids were ordered to pour honey or brush more oil on the barbecue after their orders. Everyone in the wooden bowl of ground nutmeg and ground dill also trembled, waiting for the master to say when they could be sprinkled.

Seeing the mutton slowly turning from red to charred, the skin has become crisp, and the oil is nourished under the licking of the fire tongue. The nutmeg is like the oil star dancing, and the entire body emits a very strong fragrance. Nervous slaves fell into a mysterious silence …

In their first few decades of life, they have never smelled such a seductive barbecue scent, and it was born under the eyelids. Is it because of the spice that the master put in generously? Really, I feel that I have taken advantage!

Especially the cook, unlike other people who do n’t know how to cook, she has done so many barbecues, and was once asked by a previous luxurious master to add more spices to marinate the meat, but this has never happened Wonderful effect, is this the taste of Master New Baron in the East?

The roast was pulled off the fork and placed on a wooden plate covered with kale. The surface was sprinkled with a little green dill, and a piece of fatty, hot roasted lamb was squeezed, and the oil fell on it. The greenish cabbage leaves are more attractive.

As the kale leaves were slightly heated by the heat of the barbecue, the kitchen made a sound of swallowing throats. Cooing.

The author has something to say: Xiaobai has something to say: ………………… Oh!
