Alien Knights

Chapter 232: TV series

   Soul Space, daily meeting of Muxi Kingdom.

   "Your majesty, your complexion is not very good."

   Todd came back to his senses, touched his face, and said in surprise, "Is there any?"

   Emerson nodded: "You seem to have been worrying about something..."

   With a sigh, Todd looked at the kingdom officials in the meeting hall, and said, "Where did you report?"

"I'm here!" The monk Qiao raised his hand: "Your Majesty, in accordance with your will, I have issued a proposal in the name of the Son a few days ago, hoping that the residents will go outside the city to develop and operate farms, seeds, agricultural tools, The materials are provided by the Kingdom for free..."

   Todd leaned his upper body forward and asked, "What was the result?"

The monk shook his head helplessly: "No one is willing to go to farming. Everyone said that they would rather work at the dock than go to the fields. There are many jobs in the city and the rewards are good. There is no need to work hard. The most important thing is to live. I'm used to good times, no one wants to get mud on their palms anymore."

   Hearing this, Todd frowned and said nothing.

Emerson continued at this time and said: "The wheat and soybeans shipped by sea trade are of good quality and low price. If residents grow their own crops and include costs such as manpower and wastage, they really have no way to compete with the prices in the south. This is no wonder. They are not willing."

"Speaking of Haimao, I remembered one thing." Emerson touched the eight-character Hu: "If I remember correctly, your Majesty's proposal of no tax for three years will expire soon. It is necessary for the kingdom to start discussing tax types and tax rates, and the recruitment of corresponding departments and personnel must be on the agenda."

   Todd suddenly said: "About the agriculture of West Side City..."

   Emerson was taken aback. What he was talking about just now was tax. Why did he get back to agriculture again?

"Huggins, you ask the royal clerk to draft a document called the "Five-Year Plan for Agricultural Development"." Todd thought while saying, "First, notify the North Island Commercial Fleet to gradually reduce the import of southern food. Second, charge step tariffs on imported grain from abroad; third, allow immigrants outside the city to open up and operate farms and pastures on their own after registration, and after they produce a certain amount of grain, they are allowed to convert to resident status; Fourth, in the land planning outside the city, a new type of land is added as basic arable land. This type of land can only be used for agricultural purposes and cannot be used for other purposes; The Western Kingdom will continue to be exempt from agricultural taxes."

When Emerson heard this, his eyes widened, and he quickly discouraged the king: "Your Majesty, can you consider the matter of agricultural tax exemption? No matter which kingdom, agricultural taxes are the pillars of national development. This is too..."

Todd looked into Emerson’s eyes, without hesitation in his eyes: "Just do what I said! Now it seems that agricultural taxes may be a lot, but once other industries in the kingdom develop, that little money will be nothing at all. ."

Seeing what Huggins had just said, repeating it one after another, Todd nodded in satisfaction, and then asked Terrence: "In terms of crop planting, the Western Kingdom is near the sea, and the surrounding land is severely salinized. , Is there any good way to improve the academy?"

   "The commonly used methods are rotation farming and fertilization. I don't know the specifics." Terrence replied with some embarrassment.

Todd tapped his fingers on the tabletop and said to himself: "The land around Twilight City is not fertile enough, and most of the raw materials in the city are used to make gunpowder. I must find a way to artificially synthesize fertilizer. Let me think about it. Speaking of fertilizers, in the previous life, it seemed to use Hubble’s high-pressure reaction tower to chemically synthesize ammonia, and then use free molecules to produce nitrogen fertilizer..."

   Terrence was puzzled: "Your Majesty, the molecule you are talking about is also nitrogen. What is it?"

   Todd patted his forehead with his hand, and smiled bitterly with a headache.

   The nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer and potash fertilizer used in modern agriculture first need to be synthesized by artificial ammonia, and the manufacture of the latter requires the country's industrial technology and chemical theory to reach a relatively high level before it is feasible.

  In the previous chemical industry, the industrial production of ammonia using nitrogen and hydrogen as raw materials did not formally come out until 1918. In the current Muxi Kingdom, let alone the creation of a reaction tower, it could not even explain this set of complex chemical reactions.

   Is there any way to make chemical fertilizers relatively easily?

   Seeing the king fell into contemplation again, a table of officials, large and small, remained silent very tacitly.

   Emerson exchanged memories and sounds with Terrence through the computer screen; Mary read the famous art paintings on the computer while drinking coffee intently.

   And Cumberland, the highest military officer of this kingdom, because of this morning's regular meeting, there is nothing for him, so he simply picked up the mouse in front of him and looked at the computer.

   The computer data and stored information in the soul space are all transformed from memories in Todd's brain.

   Because these people who entered the soul space are people that Todd trusts. Therefore, apart from some particularly secret information, a considerable part of the data is actually in an open state.

Cumberland used the mouse to click bluntly, and accidentally entered a file interface. The folder icon on the left reads "American TV-Spartacus", and the right reads "Manual joystick driver". .

   "Huh? What are these two?" Cumberland used the mouse curiously, swayed between the two folders for a while, and finally opened the folder named "Spartacus". Next, he found a lot of video icons, so he picked the first file and double-clicked it to start playing.

   On the computer screen, an epic battle was shown before the eyes of the old knight. The impassioned background music sounded. In the heavy rain, the two armies fought together. Blood, steel and fighting made Cumberland tremble with excitement.

   On the other side, the meeting is still going on.

   "Yes!" Todd patted the table again, shocking everyone.

   After flipping through his memory for a while, Todd shared an instructional video on "Microbial Synthesis of Nitrogen Fertilizer" to the host of everyone present.

   The whole video is 30 minutes, simple and easy to understand, basically there are no specific terms, the theoretical part is relatively small, and the operation introduction is relatively large. It mainly describes how to use bacteria to synthesize the nitrogen fertilizer required by crops as a subject of extracurricular teaching for college students:

   In the field of microbiology, there is a kind of bacteria called Rhizobiaceae. It was discovered in 1884 and was not paid attention until 1975. Rhizobia can coexist with legumes to form nodules, and fix inorganic nitrogen in the air and water into organic nitrogen fertilizer, thereby providing nutrients to plants.

  In agricultural applications, artificially inoculated peanuts with nodules can fix nitrogen per square meter of 7.2-12.4g per year, which means that per mu of peanuts can obtain nitrogen equivalent to 10-17 kg of urea from nitrogen fixation. Especially in poor soils, 94% of the nitrogen fixed by the nodules every day is supplied to the plants, and only 6% remains in the nodules, which can increase the original yield by about 70%.

  The most important thing is that the artificial cultivation of rhizobia is not complicated, and the inoculation process is relatively simple. These are simply suitable technologies for the agricultural development of the Western Kingdom.

While playing the video, Todd explained to everyone: "With regard to the development of microbial fertilizers, Muxi College and the monastery will work together. First, try planting in a small area and find the best inoculation plan before comprehensive promotion. ."

   After talking about agricultural development, Todd exchanged some kingdom affairs with the officials, and then quietly found the old craftsman Aiden to show the 3D modeling picture of the firearm in his memory to the other party.

   "How about? With the kingdom's current industrial level, can you imitate this gun?"

   The king’s hopeful eyes, UU reading www.uukanshu.com put the pressure on the old craftsman’s shoulders as heavy as a mountain.

"Your Majesty, this gun barrel needs drilling and rolling technology; this gunpowder warehouse needs a metal-controlled dissimilar to cooperate; and this trigger requires special springs and firing devices... In addition, there are many other things. I won’t be able to see it for a while, and I need to study it in detail."

Todd nodded when he heard the words: "Before the meeting is over, I will ask Mary to write down this model and some pictures of the other muskets, and then let her draw them in reality and give them to you. Old Aiden, call me under your hands. The best craftsmen, try their best to imitate this weapon!"

   After explaining these things, Todd and the officials said goodbye, planning to close the soul space.

   When it was Cumberland's turn, the opponent's eyes were almost on the screen, and the whole person was completely immersed in the plot of the TV series, and even the voice of others saying hello was not heard.

   Terrence leaned forward curiously, and after a few glances, he never looked away. While watching, he said: "It's amazing! I can actually go back to the fate of a historical hero through this crystal box!"

   Seeing more and more people gathered in front of the computer screen, Todd yelled dryly: "The daily meeting is over, everyone should go back if there is nothing wrong, there are still a lot of things in the kingdom!"

   Of course, no one cares about him.
