The tiny official said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, how high is it??"

Zhao Kuangyin almost wanted to kick him with his feet, and shouted, "How much is the high yield?"

The wheat has grown like this, how can it not be high-yield? Do you still need to say it? The little official continued to tremble his voice and said, "Two hundred and ninety-one emperor jin."

"Why are there two hundred and ninety-one pounds?" Li Fang asked in confusion. The minor official said, "Li Zhihao is not a pound, but an imperial pound, and six stones are more than 17 pounds."

Zhao Kuangyin wanted to kick him again. Why didn’t you tell me how many stones you made? I was still calculating in my mind. Then the ministers petrochemicals together. In fact, the academy has made great progress over the years. Not only in Hezhou, the experimental site, Song Jiu promoted many farms, which was to use money to smash technology and produce. The wheat yield in the entire Song Dynasty was still very low, and it was definitely less than two stones, and some were only a few buckets, not enough for a single stone. However, some of the high-yield wheat in some farms was more than two stones, and a few were more than two stones because of sufficient fertilizer and reasonable planting methods. In addition, the soil was improved at all costs, high yields of more than three stones appeared.

But the yield did not exceed too much. It can only be said that many excellent seeds were obtained. After screening, they were handed over to the prefectures to improve the seeds. However, the impact was not very big. After all, the seeds were not far apart and quickly degenerated in private hands. Although Song Jiu spent a lot of money, only dozens of large farms could not meet the needs of seeds in the world. If you want to meet the needs of seeds, unless you set up more farms, as many as thousands, how much money would it cost?

Even if there is money, it still doesn't work. It is left to farmers to plant because the planting method is not acceptable. Or there is insufficient fertilizer, it deteriorates in one year. The actual solution is still in the academy. The academy method is to select a single plant from the field in one year, and cultivate seedlings in small fields in two years. It will be promoted in the field in three years, and then select a single plant from the field. It will continue over and over again. The wheat seeds in these acres of experimental fields are obtained in this way. Therefore, if you want to promote it nationwide, you must have a large number of officials who know agriculture. They can not only choose seeds but also have advanced planting methods. Seeds have regional restrictions, such as rice.

Because the weather was warm in the early Northern Song Dynasty. Rice could be grown, including Youzhou. The famous monk rice planted in Luoyang in the capital, but monk rice could not be promoted to Hebei, let alone Jiangnan. It could be promoted, but there was an adaptation process, and the adapted rice seeds could not be called monk rice. However, strictly distinguishing between Luoyang, dry land and paddy fields also had different requirements for seeds. For the same paddy fields, different soil compositions also had different requirements. This required national ability to select, breed, and scientific planting methods to evolve the seeds of the country's grain.

Only by allowing more officials who are proficient in agriculture to be able to provide guidance to the people can we achieve initial realization.

Song Jiu has talked about the truth in the middle. Most ministers have also heard of it.

But that is three stones, or more than three stones. Psychologically acceptable, the yield is different. It is more than twice the three stones, and four to five times the yield of ordinary Song Dynasty wheat fields.

Zhao Kuangyin asked, "But the limit of wheat?"

In fact, he was also excited inside. In the past, the limit of wheat seemed to be three stones, but in the field, it was only more than one stone. Now it has become six stones. Can it become three stones in the field? If so, plus a season of sorghum or beans, it will become nearly four stones, and the output of the entire north will double.

Song Jiu replied in a daze: "I don't know."

This yield is OK, but not high. I remember that if there were enough water and fertilizer in later generations, the average yield per mu of wheat was about 700 kilograms, which is much higher than the current yield. Some high-yield fields can even reach more than 700 kilograms per mu. However, the difference between chemical fertilizers and pesticides and seeds is too far from each other, which is not very good.

Other ministers were also thinking about it. Song Jiu knew more than 700 kilograms, but they didn't know. They thought about it one by one, could it be improved?

Song Jiu began to talk about the serious matters and said, "Your Majesty, I have two things to report."

"Tell me."

"The first thing I said is agricultural books. I hope Your Majesty will give them to all prefectures and counties." Song Jiuyi waved his hand and the students sent a thick set of books. This is the agricultural technology books obtained by Guangxing Farm students based on the knowledge of their predecessors, their own understanding, and some theories instilled by Song Jiu. There are 50 thick volumes, more than 2,000 pages, nearly three million words, and more than 4,000 illustrations, involving the cultivation and breeding technology of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, fishery, vegetables, melons and fruits in most areas of Jingdong, East, Jinghu, Guangdong, Guangxi, Bashu.

It is the first edition, and the second and third editions may appear later. The chapters from Jiangnan, Wuyue and Fujian will be added in the future.

Song Jiu can afford the cost from writing to publishing, but after publishing, everyone ignores it, it still equals zero. Just like Qimin needs skills, how many advanced technologies do you know? How many years have it appeared, five hundred years!

Song Jiu was radical in his thinking.

When Zhao Kuangyin was still unifying the world, it was only in Zhao Kuangyi's hands that he could be considered as truly governing the world. Farming and sericulture was the core of this era. The Tang Dynasty did not pay much attention to it. Many people in the Song Dynasty noticed this book. It was not allowed to be published by privately, but only official magazines were not available to the court. In fact, even when the Tang Dynasty was affected, some agricultural books appeared.

Moreover, Qimin Yaoshu was a farm book written by Jia Siyi when he was the prefect. His manpower was limited, his understanding was limited, his financial resources were limited, and his length was too simple, and there were many mistakes. However, this set of books almost filled out all the shortcomings of Qimin Yaoshu.

Even in the future, most officials were nerds who read the scriptures and read the scriptures and read the ranks of the country. The court valued agriculture and remnants, but they did not understand it, so they only became slogans. With this set of books, they opened the book and read it and planted everything and raised everything. More than three million words, although it was a simple half-text and half-verbal word, it was equivalent to more than 10 million words in later vernacular Chinese, and it was equivalent to the words of Zizhi Tongjian in large historical books. How many contents are involved? They even wrote some water conservancy knowledge in pictures and texts, including various knowledge on river management, construction of dams, and recorded them one by one. Not to mention the knowledge of raising chickens, ducks, geese, fish, cattle, horses, sheep and pigs.

Zhao Kuangyin looked through it one by one and passed it down.

Zhao Kuangyi suddenly asked from the side: "Is it useful to get Khitan and Dali?"

"The two kings, many of them are planting and breeding industries in the north and south, whether they are Dali or Jiaozhi, as well as Tubo in the west, Khitan and Goryeo in the north. It will definitely be beneficial to get it."

Zhao Kuangyi said: "Brother, you can deliver it to all prefectures and counties. However, those who are not officials or above cannot watch it."

"The Second King. You're not that cautious."

"Song Jiu, don't you understand that agriculture and sericulture are the real foundation of the country. It can allow the Khitan to obtain gunpowder technology, and it cannot allow them to obtain this book. Fortunately, you took it out today, otherwise it would cause great trouble to publish it in the world indiscriminately."

Song Jiu was depressed and said nothing. Emperor Taizong attached great importance to good things. But he had to hide everything. Can he still promote the world?

Zhao Kuangyin looked at the back of the book again, and the name of the writer was printed behind each book. This was the highest honor. Innumerable students participated in it, and the names were recorded one by one. Then there was a list of the revised, correctors, and correctors, and writers. However, there was no name of the editor. The editor-in-chief was Song Jiu, but it was not written like Zizhi Tongjian. Sima Guang submitted the presentation, and the next article was to review the text Sima Kang, fellow practitioners Fan Zuyu, Liu Shu, and Liu Yan. In fact, there were many clerks involved in it, so go to hell. Books are very expensive, and taking up names is equivalent to taking up pages. Isn’t it cost money?

Song Jiu appeared, but was only on the ranks of huge writers.

In other words, Song Jiu didn't want to compete for this credit.

Zhao Kuangyin said, "Second brother, Song Jiu. You see that I am sure, what about the name of this book?"

"Please give your majesty a name."

Zhao Kuangyin thought for a while and said, "Just call it "Kaibao Song Shu".

Song Jiu realized that Zhao Kuangyin also realized that there was a word Song, which did not erase Song Jiu's contribution. Song Jiu made another unexpected request.

That is to give out the shares.

Just after the red split, Song Jiu's stocks rose to 1.8 million yuan since the end of April, but the proportion was not large. The entire Hezhou stocks reached more than 7 million yuan. Originally, the proportion of Song Jiu's stocks could have increased last year, but because of the suppression of Hezhou, some diversions and buildings were built in advance, and the stocks were further diluted.

Among the more than 7 million scattered shares, Yanei still accounted for the most part, and it was basically here. There will be some construction in the future. Henan and Hezhou still have two empty houses, especially the empty house in Hezhou. This will take two or three years to develop. At that time, the Song Dynasty will be more prosperous and the population will be more. Otherwise, the price will be too high and cannot be sold, so don’t expect to make money. Henan also has one, but these two will not expand shares, and will make money at a suitable price before construction. Not only will the shares not expand, but the profit will be handed over to the two academies to increase the academies’ shares. Yanei’s shares will only reduce in the future, but as the Southern Tang Dynasty recovers, the country will become more prosperous and the profit will increase.

The second is the contract shares of ordinary people and small and medium-sized merchants. They should have been the largest. Last year, the expansion of the shares of Yanei was theirs. The positive and negative were not as many as the contract shares of Yanei. In the future, it will increase a little, that is, the contract shares of some workshops, but it will not increase too much. And this small amount of contract shares will be distributed to new workers in the name of internal shares.

At the same time, the number of academy contract stocks is gradually increasing, which is necessary. Only with talents can we have everything, and the research of academy students is fed back to Hezhou.

Among private people, Song Jiu's consortium is a huge monster.

However, it is not too much. Now that the stocks of contract have increased, the yield ratio has gradually declined, it has begun to be almost one to one. Now it is gradually less than two to one. Song Jiu has to bear various taxes of hundreds of thousands of yuan, and not much is left, not even enough research. If it weren't for the overpayment of overseas trade, Song Jiu would have gone bankrupt long ago.

Except for Song Jiu, all the original six major stocks, Zhao Kuangyi, Fu brothers, Gao family, and Shi family, were withdrawn. The remaining only the Pan brothers had the largest stocks. At this time, after several expansions, the Pan brothers had almost reached nearly 70,000 stocks, with dividends of about 30,000 stocks each year.

This part of the contract shares are submitted.

Song Jiu handed over 1.4 million scattered shares to the court. It would not bring much money to the court for the time being. He could only barely pay all the previous taxes, and the remaining ones would be left, but not too much. However, starting from the end of April next year, 200,000 scattered shares will be added every year until the full amount of 3 million scattered shares. In the future, Hezhou will be more prosperous, and the tax will be paid more and more, but the dividends will be increased. Basically, 1.2 million scattered shares can make up all the taxes that Song Jiu originally borne. The remaining ones can be made up for, and the rest will be included in the Sansi or the inner warehouse, and the court will argue.

The remaining 400,000 shares are used as R&D funds.

If Song Jiu's current research costs are definitely insufficient, but the high cost is higher than that of several furnaces. Once the furnace moves, some related equipment will change accordingly. However, the only ones that change frequently are reflectors, and the other furnaces will move, and the frequency of movement is not large. In addition, Song Jiu has another huge expense, which is the reverse payment of major farms. This farm is about to expire and may be retained in the future, but there are not so many, or there are so many, but not so much. The function is to correct some shortcomings in agricultural knowledge and improve agriculture. Therefore, the research costs will become less and less, but the dividends will increase. Song Jiu has not completely let go. If there is not enough, Song Jiu will subsidize himself or save himself in the future, so he will have no economic relations with Song Jiu.

Only then can the academy say that it will gradually get rid of Song Jiu's imprint.

The 400,000 stocks will be sold until the end of the fifty-year period in Hezhou. In the future, some industries will be retained and handed over to the academy to manage them, so that they can achieve self-sufficiency.

The Pan family's concession shares were handed over to the Pan brothers, not to the court, but to the academy research expenses. The gap has been too large in recent years. I used the Pan brothers concession shares to make up for it to prevent the Song family from insufficient asset subsidies. In the future, the research expenses can gradually be kept in peace and are also handed over to the court. In this way, the concession shares occupied by the court can barely reach 30%.
