Chapter 0250 Peach tree bears plum blossoms, plum blossoms
Shaokang continued:
"Look at you all wearing silk cloth, I wonder if there are many silkworms in the country of Reed?"
The great witch of the Lu Kingdom flashed her eyes and said with a smile:
"Do you want to exchange silk cloth? I still have some silk cloths to store, which can be exchanged."
Shaokang said with a smile:
"No, no, no, I don't want silk cloth. What I want to exchange for is the cocoons, which have been cocoons before the silkworm moth hatched."
Huh?
There is the great witch and great Qi of the Lu Kingdom.
The silk reeling technology has not been invented in this era. The cocoons used by various tribes are also broken after the silkworm moths hatch.
Tear the cocoon into a fluffy mess, then spun into thread and weave it into silk.
There is no way to think of the great witch of Lu Country. What's the use of not having silk cloth, just exchanging complete silk cocoons?
However, he is a person who will not make a fuss easily, and just keeps his doubts in his heart.
He thought for a while and said:
"It is not the season for silkworm raising. There are still some cocoons left after the silkworm moth hatched, but the silkworm moth has not hatched, and there is no cocoon left in the cocoon."
"I know, I didn't think about exchanging at this time. We can set the transaction first. When the cocoons are harvested, it's not too late to exchange them again... But in previous years, there were many silkworms in the country of Lu. The more cocoons I need, the better. In the country of Lu, all the people of Lu went to raise silkworms, and I thought there were fewer ones."
Shaokang is talking big.
He had no idea what it meant to raise silkworms in all 50,000 people.
However, he knew that it was impossible for 50,000 people in the Lu Kingdom to raise silkworms.
After all, people still have to eat, and rice still needs to be planted.
Furthermore, with Ye Qing behind him, he was not worried at all.
If 50,000 people really raise silkworms, he believes that Ye Qing will have a way to digest the cocoons he harvested, no matter how many of them are.
This is what Ye Qing has always done and has given him confidence.
Qing, omnipotent!
The great witch of the Lu Kingdom was surprised at first, and then a little embarrassed:
"Of course, it's okay to raise silkworms more. Raising silkworms is not a difficult task. Chinese people also raise silkworms. In previous years, every Chinese family would raise silkworms more or less, but I didn't need that much, so Chinese people didn't raise them in large quantities..."
"This year I can let Chinese people raise a large number of silkworms...but if you raise too many silkworms, these mulberry leaves may not be enough. Therefore, there are not many silkworms raised."
Shaokang takes big bags:
"Okay, as long as you raise it, I want it all. If there are not enough mulberry leaves, then there are many kinds of mulberry trees! There are so many open spaces in the wild, I haven't seen a few trees, so I can plant mulberry trees!"
"Now, there are not so many seedlings planted in mulberry trees. Even if there are, it will take several years to grow up! Does Fangfeng always need cocoons?"
"Of course, I always need it. I need as much as I have. Therefore, you have more than one mulberry tree... As for the saplings, it is not simple enough. You can use mulberry branches to cut them!"
Now, not only did the great witch of Lu Country be surprised, but Yao Yao and Lu also showed a surprised expression.
When they were in the Fender tribe, because the Fender needed too little things, they were worried that there were not enough things to exchange for so many artifact products of the Fender tribe.
After talking about it today, I realized that there are still many things that Feng Feng needs.
This excited them.
Of course, I remember it very carefully.
If there are things that Lu Guo can use to trade with Shaokang, they can naturally trade with the same things.
People in Dayu will do it if they raise silkworms.
The method of mass planting of mulberry trees, they also need it.
Yao Yao asked hurriedly:
“What is cuttings?”
Shaokang thought for a while, ran to the door and broke a branch from a mulberry tree.
After entering the room, he took a bronze dagger and cut the branches into two palm-length sections, and then said proudly:
"Seave the mulberry branches so long, leave four buds for each mulberry branch, and then when it is time to plant trees, insert such mulberry branches into the soil and water it. This mulberry branch can not only survive and grow into a mulberry tree, but also pick mulberry leaves in the second half of the year."
He was very happy to have the opportunity to show off.
He naturally heard the cutting technique from Ye Qing.
As for the fact that you could pick mulberry leaves back then, it was a bit exaggerated.
The cutting technology that can pick mulberry leaves back then was in modern times when there were a variety of root-inducing agents. In this era, despite the warm climate, it was only a few that could pick mulberry leaves back then.
Most of the time it is impossible to pick mulberry leaves in the past.
Yao Yao picked up a mulberry branch, looked left and right, and asked:
"If you insert this way, can you live? Can you grow into a tree?"
This is incredible!
In this era, people admire the reproduction of humans and animals and the growth of plants very much.
Because the process of reproduction of life is too mysterious.
However, in Shaokang's mouth, there is another way for trees to reproduce in addition to seeds.
Moreover, this method is still so simple and casual.
Break a branch and insert it, and you can grow into another tree. How is this possible?
Lu and Youlu Kingdom's great witches are also full of questions.
Shaokang was full of confidence: "Yes!"
In fact, he has never experimented with cuttings or saw cutting techniques, and it is just Ye Qing who said casually.
But he firmly believed it.
Because, this is what Qing said, it will definitely be possible.
If you can't insert it, it's also the wrong way you insert it.
He had no awareness of technology leaking, and continued to show off:
"We have all eaten peaches. Some peach trees are delicious, while others are not delicious. I can make peach trees that are not delicious, and they will grow delicious peaches."
Seeing Yao Yao and the other two stunned, Shaokang became more and more proud and continued to show off:
"Do you want to know how I did it?"
"I want to!" the three of them spoke in unison.
In their eyes, Shaokang suddenly became extremely mysterious.
Even Yao Yao, who was very familiar with him, seemed to not know him, and his eyes were extremely shocked.
This issue involving the essence of life, even in the modern world with advanced technology, still has a mysterious color in the eyes of many people, let alone this primitive era when people are ignorant of their cognition.
Their shock made Shaokang's showing off his mind greatly satisfied.
Without answering their questions immediately, he once again made shocking remarks:
"A peach tree will never grow peaches, but not plums or apricots, but plum trees will only grow plums, but not peaches, right?"
"yes!"
"No! I can let the peach tree grow plums, and the plum tree grows peaches!"
Boom!
Yao Yao and the other two seemed to be hit by thunder, and for a moment, they were all stunned.
Their whole body was trembling, their faces were dull, their eyes were extremely shocked, and even terrified!
Could it be... the boy in front of him is a god?
Peach trees grow plums, plum trees grow peaches... This has completely changed the category of species!
Only Gods and men can do this!
Shaokangyu is not shocking and never stops, so he adds a fire again:
"I can also let a peach tree grow three different fruits: peach, plum and apricot at the same time!"
Crack!
Yao Yao and the other two felt that the sky above their heads was cracked.
Their faces were pale and their eyes began to dissipate.
The servants serving next to him were even more unbearable and knelt on the ground.
Their foreheads were pressed against the ground, and their bodies were trembling like sieves.
This is a god who can create things!
Chapter completed!
