Gao Yaxian was released back to his camp, and Yu Qiu fully showed him his big belly.

Two days later, all the soldiers stationed on the other side of Mingshui will be divided into two groups. Those who are willing to follow Yu Qiu Gaoyaxian to gather in the Mingzhou camp. If you have other ideas, Yu Qiu will let them leave.

He believed that if Gao Yaxian, who had led his troops for many years, would eventually have more than half of them come to Mingzhou camp.

As a manager, Yu Qiu usually gives professional matters to professionals to manage. In terms of military training, Su Dingfang and Luo Cheng, in terms of production, the women from the Widow Village took the lead, and even in terms of administrative order, Li Sanniang was a good player. Therefore, under normal circumstances, Yu Qiu still looks very idle.

After receiving the reward for hot pot base, the system immediately released a new item reward task. The quality of the prize is indeed slightly improved compared to before. The task of the primary difficulty is to make hundreds of ready-made garments with designated styles. Complete the task and you can get ten clothes produced by the system. You can choose any style and exceed the task. The reward will be bonus.

The task of intermediate difficulty is to make a long-range transmitter with a range of 1,000 meters. You can get a bicycle with a range of more than 1,000 meters and a bonus.

The most difficult task is to build a cargo ship with a cargo capacity of 1,000 tons. Complete the task and you can get a 1,000-ton steam ship produced by the system. Exceed the task, and you will get a bonus.

After reading these three tasks, Yu Qiu immediately excluded the most difficult tasks. Cargo ships with a load of 1,000 tons can only be regarded as small cargo ships in later generations, and can be seen everywhere in rivers, lakes and seas, but it is different in this era.

One ton is two thousand kilograms, and one thousand ton is two million kilograms. It is converted into stone, at least 16,700 kilograms. At present, the largest cargo ship in the Tang Dynasty has not carried more than 5,000 kilograms. Under the current conditions, Yu Qiu could not have built a ship three times larger than the largest cargo ship of this era.

However, it seems that you can try the intermediate difficulty tasks.

Because, in Yu Qiu's impression, the range of ancient bed crossbows could reach one thousand meters, so that the craftsmen in the Widow Village could study and develop bed crossbows with a range of more than one thousand meters. At least, compared to clothes that could not solve any practical problems, the bicycle was more cool.

Yu Qiu directly received the intermediate difficulty task, then rode on Dahei and headed towards the villa.

Recently, the changes in the villa have been greatly improved. With those who were originally in Beppu, Mingzhou, coming to teach children to read and recognize words, their minds have grown rapidly. For example, Xiaodong began to record some breeding data with paper and pen, and through some records and comparisons, he can make some small discoveries every day.

Gou'er also calculated the accounts inside and outside the villa clearly, and even began to calculate some data on the ratio of labor to output. He invested more manpower and material resources in projects with the largest output return. This was the first correct conclusion he got. This was all found by Yu Qiu after he explained to him the importance of planned organization of production.

Compared to Hanzi and Datou who had grown taller after the food was nutritious, Xiaohu seemed the most idle. He hummed children's songs every day, wandering around the villa and looking around. He knew every production project in the villa, but he didn't know much. After all, he was just a seven or eight-year-old child, and no one took him seriously.

Shen Qing is the busiest child in the villa. He always has many questions to ask others or make some strange devices to verify. At first, everyone was actually annoyed him a little, but when he proposed a set of levers that used meticulous arrangement to reduce the laborious process of workers in soaking the large wood cut down from the mountain, everyone looked at him differently.

It is not an exaggeration to describe a child about ten years old, and it is a genius to design a complete set of labor-saving devices.

However, he, a genius, bought it in the villa, that is, the workers who worked in the workplace, and the teachers who came from Lu's Mingzhou Beppu prefer another child.

Xu Cong, who had gone from scratch to dictating the Thousand Characters in half a month, was the genius in their eyes. Just yesterday, Xu Cong was able to recite the Analects of Confucius and the Book of Songs in full. You should know that it has only been less than two months since he came to the villa. This speed of reading and recognizing words can be described as a reference.

There was more than Yu Qiu who came to the villa today. In the morning, someone from Mingzhou transported a batch of high-bred cattle, sheep and livestock produced by the system to the villa. The mastiffs and sheepdogs produced by the system have become the new armed forces of the villa. With them, when Hanzi and Datou led the team into the mountains, there was almost no danger.

When he saw these sturdy livestock, he was of course the happiest person. After seeing the domestic rabbits that were nearly twice as big as the hare, he lost interest in raising hares. The fat pigs, which were all white, made him unable to help but reach out to touch them one by one.

"Brother Qiu, why are these pigs, horses, cows, sheep and rabbits so much longer than those brought from the mountains?" Before Qiu could go to Shen Sanniang's workshop! Dong'er grabbed him and asked.

Yu Qiu asked, "Because they are raised in the most scientific way."

Dong'er looked at Yu Qiu with a gaze seeking knowledge and asked, "Then, what is science?"

Yu Qiu patiently explained to him, "Science is the general term for all correct knowledge. For example, in the past, people only used ordinary forage to feed cattle and sheep, and even directly raised cattle and sheep in the mountains, and those cattle and sheep were always so big.

But now, we feed cattle and sheep with chopped and fermented mixed forage in the villa, so that the cattle and sheep are much larger than the cattle and sheep that were originally fed with ordinary forage, and the milk yield rate is much higher. This is because chopped and fermented feed is easier to digest and has higher calories than ordinary forage. Moreover, they are not allowed to walk into the mountains and rinse their bodies regularly, which can make the cattle and sheep cleaner and have no parasites.

This is the effect we have achieved after using a more correct and scientific breeding method than the previous breeding method.

And we only need to constantly explore the right way to achieve more time-saving, labor-saving and resources in all aspects, thus achieving richer returns.”

Dong'er suddenly realized, "So that's the case. If I raised them in a more correct way, would they grow better than they are now?"

Yu Qiu smiled and said, "Of course, this requires you to find the right direction and explore slowly. For example, making these livestock more edible, eat better, and be more willing to give birth to cubs, etc. are all directions you can observe and study."

"That's great. I must raise the most cattle, sheep and livestock in the world in the future." Dong'er said happily.

Yu Qiu smiled and touched his head, saying, "Not only the most livestock in the world, but also the most poultry in the world. I came here this time to see the poultry breeding situation in the villa. In two days, I may have a better breed of poultry than the poultry raised here and I will give it to you the task of bringing people to raise them."

The villa has never stopped construction. At this time, a long shed has been built along the stream, and it is still being expanded. After the chicken, duck, geese or bird eggs in the greenhouse are hatched, Yu Qiu will feed a round of food and can get the maximum reward for poultry breeding tasks from the system. Calculate the days, the eggs in the greenhouse should be broken in the past two days. The poultry breeding industry is ready, and it is also a pillar industry in the future under Yu Qiu's name.

After talking to Shen Sanniang about her idea of ​​building a crossbow, Yu Qiu came to the ridge next to the reservoir. The wheat and rice here grew very well. In addition to the fact that Yu Qiu told the women in the villa to help gain weight, the good seeds produced in the system are also the key.

Although Yu Qiu did not dare to plant these seeds in densely like later generations due to fertility, it was estimated that the yield per mu should be two or three times higher than that of ordinary fields in this era.

"The growth cycle of seeds produced by these systems is a little shorter than that of the original wheat rice of this era, and can mature in three or four months. However, if you want to plant this high-yield field on a large scale, you still need to study the fertilization technology. The reason why the yield per mu of wheat rice in later generations is so large is that fertilizer is the key. With fertilizer, you can sow several times or even dozens of times, which will increase the output multiple in the fields. However, the current yield is enough to scare many people. After returning from Fan Yang, you can open it to Li Shimin and others to come here to see it." Yu Qiu muttered in his heart when he walked past the ridge of the field.

This is also a means of Yu Qiu suppressing grain prices. High-yield grains are more powerful than the introduction of high-efficiency plows.

This year, except for the near Mingzhou City, the farming situation in Hebei is very bad. After the autumn harvest, the shortage of food may be alleviated in the short term, which can support millions of people to survive the cold winter, complete the spring plowing next year, and persist until next year's autumn harvest. To completely solve the problem of insufficient grain production, a huge amount of grain is required to support it. The task is very arduous and he needs to mobilize resources from the whole country to achieve it. The strategy that can save the cost of purchasing grain will naturally be used as much as he has.
