Chapter 6 Compost
Seeing Old Sam's attitude, Valen quickly arranged:
"Let everyone in the village collect feces from various animals, be careful that the feces must be dried, and the fields are piled up, and some people will burn the branches and dead grass, collect the burned powder and bring it to me."
Old Sam nodded and immediately went to inform every resident in Tomato Village with a cane.
Valen said as if he had thought of something:
"By the way, Old Sam, tell all the villagers that if the farmer collects the most feces or powder, you can get a silver coin reward. You are responsible for checking who has collected the most things."
When Sam's eyes lit up when he heard Valen's words, he said:
"Yes, Lord Lord, thank you for your kindness."
After saying that, Sam hurried to the residents' residential area.
In the absence of chemical fertilizers, human or animal feces are actually the best natural fertilizers. If all the villagers can develop such a habit, these feces that were not originally had been fully utilized.
Under Old Sam's mobilization, all the people from Tomato Village were mobilized, and the lord stood next to the Tomato Village field. No one dared to be lazy, and everyone in Tomato Village was busy.
Soon, the feces and wood ash that Valen needed were piled up together.
Old Sam stood beside Valen with a cane, gasping for breath and said:
"Lord, this is the feces collected by our residents and the powder burned out. The rest are still collecting them and it is estimated that it will take a while to send them."
Valen nodded and said:
"Thank you all for your hard work."
After saying that, he took out a silver coin from his arms and put it in the hands of the gate chief. He said to the onlookers: "This is what I promised everyone who brings the largest fertilizer, I will reward whom I will cash it out."
Promising to hand him over to Old Sam and let Sam hand him over to the garrison who collected the most fertilizers."
"Praise the great Lord Valen!"
The villagers sighed with their hands wrapped around their chests.
"If there is any transported feces in the future, put them in this pile of feces. Don't use these feces for the time being, and wait until you let them use them."
The collected feces cannot be used directly to increase the fertility of the land. They need a period of fermentation, or the "compost" process.
These feces are piled into cone shapes and do not need to be turned frequently. After long exposure to the sun, they can achieve the fertilizer effect required by Valen.
"Down a small pit next to these crops and pile up the wood ash into this pit, and the amount of watering in the past few days will be reduced. A large amount of watering will lead to the loss of these wood ash."
Valen didn't know if the villagers could understand what they said. Looking at the villagers' confusion, Valen probably guessed that the words he said just now were probably in vain.
Valen rode on horses and watched the treasury work as he had to ask.
In the distance, Robert ran from a distance on his horse.
Valen waved at Robert and controlled the horse toward Robert's place.
Robert looked at the villagers of Tomato Village and asked in confusion:
"What are these treasury people doing?"
Valen smiled and said:
"Grandpa Robert, the land fertility of Tomato Tun is too poor. I asked the Tun people and the others to compose the land fertility."
Robert looked at the people from Tomato Tun who worked in the land and said, "Your action is really admirable."
Valen smiled and waved his hand and said, "Stop talking about this, have I asked the servant you are looking for to find?"
Robert nodded and said:
"We've found all of them. I've found a few people with more flexible hands and feet. They've sent them to the castle to clean. I guess we'll be able to check in tonight."
Valen is still at ease with Robert for his work. After all, he has been with Valen for so long, so Robert must be very clear about Valen's request.
Valen looked at the leaders of the other villages following Robert.
I asked about their situation and there was a situation similar to that of Fanto Tun in their village to a greater or lesser extent.
After Varen told them the method, he asked them to solve the relevant problems by themselves, and it would be meaningless to continue running around.
Valen doesn't want to waste all his time on the same time. Now Valen needs to take a good look at his entire territory.
Valen and Robert rode side by side on their horses on the muddy road in Ron Town.
When inspecting Ron Town, Valen had a general understanding of the entire town. Most of the people in this town are engaged in agriculture, growing crops such as wheat, tomatoes, peanuts, etc., and a very small number of them are engaged in agriculture.
People can raise livestock such as dairy cows.
Only a very small number of people are engaged in handicrafts, such as the cotton treasures, which almost cover the entire town's tailor shops.
There is only one blacksmith shop in the entire town, and the number of other handicraft workshops is similar to that of blacksmith shops, with only one or two sporadic ones.
Moreover, it is almost impossible to develop raw materials with a serious lack of raw materials.
Valen and Robert slowly walked out of Mianhuatun on horseback.
"Master Valen, this place is really too barren. We may need to play for a long time to get the town on track."
Valen nodded. There are no special products in the town, and it is difficult to attract foreign funds and put the entire town on track.
Suddenly, a strange fragrance of flowers caught Valen's attention.
Valen suddenly raised his head and a group of strange purple-red flowers grew on the grass in the distance.
The purple-red flowers sway in the wind, emitting a strange fragrance. If Valen hadn't had a more sensitive nose, he wouldn't have noticed this strange fragrance of flowers.
Valen turned over and dismounted and quickly walked to the front of the pile of purple-red flowers.
Seeing Valen's excited look, Robert quickly turned over and dismounted and walked quickly to Valen's side.
Want to see what really made Valen so excited.
Valen gently picked up the purple-red flower. The strange fragrance made Valen very addicted, and most importantly, Valen felt a strange energy emitted from the purple-red flower.
Robert asked as he looked at the purple-red flowers in Valen's hand:
"Master Valen, is this a potion?"
Valen looked at the flowers in his hand and did not answer Robert's question.
Slowly closing his eyes, he felt the energy from the purple-red flowers. It was a strange green energy. The moment Valen came into contact with the green energy, he felt his body fatigue was wiped out!
