After hoarding billions of goods and traveling through the book, he farmed in another world to suppo

Not only is it adjacent to Liangzhou, which is guarded by the northern border army, so there is no need to worry about the war affecting this area, but it is also adjacent to Huaizhou, which borders the sea, and the Central Plains is across the river.

Compared with the Central Plains area controlled by the aristocratic families and the imperial court, the three northern states were not valued by the Central Plains aristocratic families and the imperial court.

If Yangzhou develops rapidly, it will not only become a huge granary, but it can also unite with Liangzhou and, by the way, involve the neighboring Huaizhou in producing seafood and even making salt from seawater.

However, salt is an important strategic material in any era and cannot be touched easily unless official permission is obtained.

The Zhou Dynasty was a feudal era, and only the government could produce salt. Even if other people knew how to make salt, few were brave enough to do it.

However, those who dare to do this can basically make a lot of money, but the risks are relatively high and they are likely to be beheaded.

This is what is meant by "the timid die of starvation, and the bold die of gluttony."

There is still a lot of salt in the space, so Xiao Li doesn't have to worry about salt in the short term.

But when the famine in the plot really happened, and the Great Zhou Dynasty was full of natural disasters and man-made disasters, salt would inevitably be in short supply, and Yu Qingshan said that Yuan'er's fate...

Xiao Li turned his head to look at the young man who was holding his chin with both hands, with a happy and carefree look on his face, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

This is the only person he cares about in his two lifetimes. Even if Yu Qingshan might deliberately use Yuan'er as an excuse, he dare not gamble.

When Lu Yuan turned her head and met his dark and deep gaze, she couldn't help but be stunned. "Xiao Si, what are you thinking about? You've frowned. You said it's not good to frown."

As the young man spoke, he raised his hand and gently smoothed his brows. After thinking for a moment, he held his hand again.

Xiao Li came back to his senses and met the young man's concerned gaze. He suppressed his thoughts in his heart and said softly, "Hmm," "Frowning is not good-looking. I won't frown anymore."

This was when Xiao Li increased the amount of calligraphy practice he had to do every day. He would frown with resentment almost every day, so Xiao Li would use the excuse that it didn't look good to persuade him not to frown so often.

Now that what he had taught him was being used by him to talk about himself, Xiao Li felt happy about his teaching success, but also somewhat helpless.

The young husband has such a good memory and is so smart that it will become increasingly difficult to deceive him.

As expected, the next moment Lu Yuan chased him and asked, "So what were you thinking about just now? Why are you so sad? The last time you were like this, was it..."

The little boy curled his lips and snorted, saying somewhat unhappily, "It's about when the baby is born."

As he said this, he looked outside and saw that the others had not come out yet, so he stopped blushing.

Xiao Li didn't miss his little move. He curled his lips slightly, squeezed his hand, lowered his head and whispered in his ear, "I'm thinking, I haven't had sex for a month. What should I do tonight?"

Lu Yuan glared at him and covered his mouth, "Don't say that!"

Xiao Li smiled silently, pressed his thin lips against the palm of his hand, and made him withdraw his hand as if he had been burned.

Seeing the boy glaring at him angrily, he took the boy's hand and kissed the back of it gently before speaking seriously, "I'm thinking about the future."

Hearing him talk about serious matters, Lu Yuan was no longer angry. She quickly sat up straight and looked at him, "Can I listen?"

"Why not?" Xiao Li said naturally and matter-of-factly, "You are my husband, we are one."

"Oh, then tell me!" Lu Yuan looked at him expectantly, obviously very curious about what he had just thought.

Seeing this, Xiao Li rubbed his head half in amusement and half in frustration, and then he briefly told him what he was thinking.

Of course, he did not mention those heinous things like salt making.

"Ah?" After hearing his words, Lu Yuan was confused for a moment, "But if it's not a top-quality field, how can we grow so much food?"

Although Liangzhou is a large area, the land is barren. The fields today are the result of reclamation by generations of ancestors.

If it is really as good as Xiao Si said, why are there still so many people not having enough to eat!

But he didn't doubt Xiao Si, he just didn't understand what he said.

Xiao Li thought about it for a moment and chose not to tell him the answer directly. Instead, he slowly guided him to think, "Whether we are growing vegetables or crops, do we always bury rotten vegetable leaves or perishable tree leaves in the fields?"

At that time, there was no special concept of fertilization, but through inheritance from generation to generation, most farmers had mastered the simple method of using rotten leaves to fertilize the fields.

Some smart people have even used feces to fertilize their vegetable fields, but not many people do that, and most of those who do are poor people.

People who are more particular, such as those living in towns, think that vegetables watered with feces will make them unclean and difficult to swallow.

If even people in small towns are like this, what about people living in other larger places?

Lu Yuan nodded as soon as he said that. "That's right. Just like in the mountains where there are a lot of dead branches and rotten leaves, the grass grows better than in other places."

"Well, Yuan'er is very smart." Xiao Li continued to ask him, "If there is a better way to fertilize the fields, over the years, wouldn't the low-quality fields gradually become medium-quality fields, and the medium-quality fields gradually become high-quality fields?"

Lu Yuan thought for a long time, and when she looked at him again, her eyes were full of admiration. "Xiao Si, you are so smart! Is there any way to turn low-quality farmland into medium-quality farmland? Or turn medium-quality farmland into high-quality farmland?"

"Yuan'er, think about it first?" Xiao Li did not rush to tell him the answer, but asked him to think about it first.

With his previous guidance, Lu Yuan thought for a long time, until someone opened the door and came out. He suddenly stood up with a happy look on his face, "I figured it out!"

"What did you think of?" Lin Qing looked at him curiously as they walked.

Although they were family members, before answering, Lu Yuan still looked at Xiao Li, asking with his eyes whether he could tell this matter to anyone.

Seeing Xiao Li nod, he was about to answer when the others came out one after another.

Li Jinhua walked in from the back with a smile, "What are you talking about, Yuan'er? I heard your voice from so far away."

Lu Yuan blushed slightly and uttered "Ah!", then asked sheepishly, "Was I loud just now?"

After all this time, everyone knew he was shy, so Li Jinhua didn't tease him. She smiled and shook her head, "How could that be? Our brother Yuan is the most gentle in his words. It's because we're so close."

Lu Yuan didn't know that apart from Xiao Li, the other elders in the Xiao family also treated him as a child.

Hearing Li Jinhua's words, he believed it and was obviously relieved.

Xiao Li, who was standing beside him, had a smile in his eyes and looked at him lovingly.

Lu Yuan didn't notice his gaze and excitedly told her family about the method she had come up with to fertilize the fields.
