He was unable to make a decision by himself, so he sent his men and three horses back to the city of Cleveland non-stop, asking John II for instructions. Soon John II responded-agreeing to the deal. As a result, Marin won 22 disciplinary middle-ranking officers, and John II won a large number of artisans, which can be said to be a win-win situation. Even on the surface, John II made some money.
When the personnel exchange was started, it had already entered March, and the spring plowing in East Friesland had officially opened ...
I used a new type of Qu Qu plough, and single horses moved. Many serfs were very uncomfortable for a few days. But a few days later, everyone was very comfortable with this kind of labor-saving Qu Qu plough.
However, in order to serve these uncles, Marin imported a lot of oats and eggs, so as to help these horses to provide nutrition in time. Even horses need to add salt because they can sweat a lot. Therefore, add some salt to the horse's feed.
For the sake of thousands of horses in the country, Marin will organize the import of basket-by-basket eggs, and Marin plans to plan a chicken breeding business. Of course, this matter has to wait until the end of spring ploughing.
In this era, the chicken business is not well scaled because of the difficult supply of feed. Civilians raise chickens, usually free-range, and let the chickens find insects to eat on their own. Want to eat food? Too extravagant, people are not enough. In this era, only the developed agriculture, grain and cheap Huaxia, dare to feed chicken with grain.
In this European era, not only chickens are free-range, but pigs are also free-range. It's not that Europeans don't know that pigs in captivity can be more fattening, but that they need to be fed with food! European food is very expensive, and the dark bread that people eat has to be mixed with a lot of wild vegetables, wood chips, and even stones. Where can there be excess food to feed pigs? Even wheat bran is mixed in the dark bread that ordinary people eat. Only the black bread eaten by the nobles separated the wheat bran.
However, because of the use of new fertilizers in the farmland under the name of Marin, it is possible to increase production, but it is possible to take out some of the barley to feed sheep, chickens, ducks and pigs. However, doing so will definitely lose money. You know, how high is wheat? How high is the meat price? Feeding pigs and chickens with grain is definitely a loss.
Therefore, it is better to feed pigs with nutrient-rich alfalfa. As for raising chickens, Marin wondered if he could raise a maggot to raise chickens? According to the Internet novels read in previous lives, ascites are very nutritious and need carrion as a medium. But this is not a problem. The price of meat in Europe is relatively cheaper than that of Huaxia. It is more cost-effective to get maggots and raise chickens in Europe ...
Of course, raising 蛆 is not so simple. First of all, tapeworms are larvae of flies. They need to be controlled. Before the tapeworms can grow into flies, they must be eaten by chickens so as not to become flies and harm the environment.
In addition, because of the use of carrion, it is easy to produce a variety of germs. Therefore, those responsible for feeding tapeworms must be fully armed, preferably wearing a mask, and usually pay attention to disinfection with lime. Otherwise, if you raise a sickness and raise a disease, you will have a lot of fun.
Of course, these issues are not currently considered by Marin. What he is most concerned about now is spring ploughing.
Because there are so many horses in the country that need to be raised, Marin has planned 5000 acres of cultivated land for planting oats to meet the domestic horses' feed needs.
Although 5000 Yougram is equivalent to 60,000 mu of land, it can harvest millions of pounds of oats. However, these horses can't stand all European heavy horses!
Local horses are mostly tall horses with a shoulder height of 1.6 meters or more. They were the ancestors of the later famous Frisian and Oldenburg horses. The body is tall and the horse eats naturally. A day's horse feed can reach tens of catties. If, like some extravagant grand nobles, let Maddenton eat oats, a horse would consume tens of thousands of pounds a year. More than ten thousand catties are enough to support thousands of horses.
Of course, the average person raises horses, and the percentage of oats in the feed is very small. In particular, Bangma is only a minority. Only feed more oats when you are plowing the field and have a lot of energy.
Even though it is a knight's war horse, although oats are often fed, they are also mixed with many other cheap feeds and also mixed with many tender grasses. Otherwise, the whole oat family can't bear it.
The more than 10 million kilograms of oats produced by the 5,000 ygram oatmeal fields, combined with alfalfa, is considered to be very high-grade even for horses. To this end, Marin also decided to continue to plow some grasslands with horses after spring ploughing to facilitate the cultivation of alfalfa.
Last fall, a lot of alfalfa seeds were harvested in the Wadden Islands, which can be grown in very large areas. According to Marin's plan, a horse farm was specially planned on the open space near the city of Orich, where alfalfa was planted as the main forage for horses.
The efficiency of curling and plowing is not covered. In the past, because light ploughing was not effective, and Saxon heavy ploughing required several horses to pull together, resulting in very low spring plowing efficiency. Often, spring plowing starts in early March and lasts until mid-late April.
But after using the Qu Xi plough, 5 horse-drawn ploughs were originally needed, and one horse could be pulled, and the tillage effect was similar. As a result, the manor that originally used Saxon's heavy plows has improved the arable land efficiency several times.
Most of the noble estates confiscated by Marin in Lyle County were saxon heavy ploughs, and the number of horses pulled was relatively large. With the use of curved ploughs, the efficiency is greatly improved. Before the end of March, the 60,000 Ugram farmland under Marin's name all ended spring plowing. The estates of other houses have basically ended or come to an end.
At the same time, good news came from the Wadden Islands. The farmland of Wanyougram on the island has also finished spring ploughing. Of the thousands of horses that Marin seized from France, many remain on the Wadden Islands for rescue. However, in the fall, when the Polish herd arrived in Silesia, Marin was ready to buy thousands of cattle to replace the horses on a large scale. At that time, those high-quality French horses of the Wadden Islands will be arranged to the horse farm in Orich to professionally cultivate outstanding ponies ...
After the farmland was finished, Marin sent people to send the fertilizer blocks of black **** from several fertilizer processing plants to various manors, and arranged their serfs to be responsible for scattering them into the fields.
As for what this weird **** is, Marin didn't explain a word and didn't want to explain it. In addition, those responsible for fertilizing are all employees of the processing plant that Marin sent to transport fertilizers. They are all Marin's own serfs. They have been trained in confidentiality and will never talk nonsense.
Even the manor under Marin and the manor of the local nobles who surrendered Marin, the fertilizer was sprinkled by the people sent by Marin.
The employees of the fertilizer plant sent by Marin uniformly wore masks, and used an engineer's **** to spread the fertilizer blocks of a cart (wheelbarrow) evenly into the plowed field, and then immediately returned to work and returned without leaving. UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not say a word to those people when they ate at those manors.
This is a special request from Marin. Without speaking, it is impossible to leak. And so is eating. If these people stay in those manors for dinner, then drink some wine ...
Many people are normal before drinking and talk a lot after drinking. It would be awful if the secret was accidentally leaked ...
So, Marin asked the employees of these fertilizer factories not to talk to outsiders or to stay for dinner. After the fertilizer is killed, the fertilizer factory will directly eat a working meal.
During the spring ploughing, Marin also gave meals because he knew that the employees of the fertilizer plant were hard. Every now and then, a few pots of braised pork are cooked, which is better than staying in those manors.
You know, the serfs in the manor can eat the black bread directly and use it as a brick. However, the dark bread eaten by the employees of the fertilizer factory is also doped, but it will never be mixed with non-food such as stones and wood chips. It is only mixed with some wild vegetables and wheat bran, which can be regarded as normal food. The bread is almost there.
Although Marin raised 3,000 serfs in several fertilizer processing plants, the expenditure was relatively large. But as long as the secret of fertilizer is kept, what is the investment? The yield per mu is increased by several hundred catties, and the income should not increase too much ...
However, with regard to Marin's practice of keeping the fertilizer so secret, subordinates such as Schwartz and Fronzberg, who were informed, also very much agreed with it and consciously kept secrets. Because, by doing so, they can do the best they can to maintain the advantages of agricultural technology.
You know, although they are far less wealthy than Marin, they also have more than a thousand cultivated lands in Eugram. The rye of other people's acres yields more than 100 pounds, and their own acres produce hundreds of pounds. It doesn't feel too cool ...
After the last fertilizer truck was dropped by the fertilizer plant employees, Marin knew that his wedding should begin ...

He was unable to make a decision by himself, so he sent his men and three horses back to the city of Cleveland non-stop, asking John II for instructions. Soon John II responded-agreeing to the deal. As a result, Marin won 22 disciplinary middle-ranking officers, and John II won a large number of artisans, which can be said to be a win-win situation. Even on the surface, John II made some money.
