"Silage!"
"Feed cattle, sheep and grass in winter! How is this possible?"
The crowd could not help but burst into an uproar. One by one, they looked at Merton with suspicious eyes. Everything withered in winter. How could there be grass.
Suddenly, many leaders showed a look of disappointment. They came with hope, but now it seems that Merton played a big joke on them.
"Mo Hou is not joking? How can there be grass in winter?" Murong Shun was secretly happy and fell into a well.
As long as Merton''s lie is exposed, the credit established by Tang Jun on the grassland will disappear. At that time, murongshun will be the only place to rely on in Qinghai.
Merton proudly said, "what you can''t do doesn''t mean that Mohists can''t do it."
Murong Shun sneered: "if mohou can really make cattle and sheep eat grass in winter, Murong Shun is willing to bow down and personally persuade all parts of the grassland to buy pastures."
Merton shook his head and said, "no, I don''t have to. I don''t have to be aboveboard. How can I buy and sell by force? Whether I want to buy a ranch depends on my own will."
"I''ll open my eyes and wait for the unparalleled ink skills of Mohism." Murong Shun sneered.
Many leaders are also skeptical. According to common sense, how could there be grass in winter? If it weren''t for so many magical performances before Merton, the leaders would have a little more hope. In addition, they might have turned around and left long ago because they were afraid of the prestige of Tang Jun.
Merton looked around and said proudly: "In summer, a newly slaughtered beef and mutton will stink after being stored for three days. However, in the long winter, under the cover of ice and snow, a sheep can still be eaten even after a winter. In the hot Chang''an City, Mo once made cold ice in summer. At low temperature, the food has been preserved for more than one month. For the preservation of food, the Mohist School There is unique research. "
Gao Shilian nodded slowly. Let''s take compressed dry food as an example. It can be preserved for two months to six months, which has never been achieved since ancient times.
Murong Shun sneered: "cattle and sheep are naturally frozen, but grass is just the opposite. Not to mention ice and snow, even frost will wither immediately, and even the least picky cattle and sheep will not eat."
Merton nodded, but agreed: "it''s true, so the Mohists came up with another method, that is, the fermentation method of wine making!"
"The fermentation of wine making!"
This time, even Gao Shilian looked at each other. I can''t think of the relationship between wine making and silage.
Tuyuhun leaders were also confused. They naturally drank Mohist wine, but they knew nothing about the fermentation of wine.
Merton explained: "the raw material of wine making is grain, which is homologous with green grass. Once the grain used for wine making is fermented, the process will take more than one month, and it can ensure that the grain will not be moldy and bad. Ben took this as an inspiration and came up with another way to store green grass."
As soon as Merton waved his hand, Tie''an immediately pulled a huge four-wheel carriage, which was filled with four huge jars. Tie''an commanded the children of Mohism to put down the four jars one by one and put them in the center.
With a wave of Merton''s hand, Tie''an immediately opened the seals of the four jars. Suddenly, the four jars of grass slowly appeared in front of everyone. Suddenly, a unique smell of grass filled everyone''s taste,
"The four tanks of silage were made by our Lord''s order in June. It took a full month and a half. Now, if this silage is feasible, leaders can pull their horses over to see if it can be eaten." Merton said confidently.
"A month and a half!"
The leaders immediately looked at each other. It was hot at the moment. If they could really store the grass for a month and a half, wouldn''t it be bad in the long and cold winter? Maybe the method of feeding cattle and sheep grass in winter that Tang Jiang said could be realized.
At present, leader Dawa and leader Hulun took the lead, moved out a horse respectively, fished out some grass and put it in front of the horse. Between them, the two horses made a loud nose, smelled the fermented grass, and immediately ate it.
The leaders are people who know horses. Naturally, they can see that the two horses not only eat, but also have an extremely enjoyable expression.
At present, many leaders couldn''t bear it. They pulled their BMW and tested it in person. As a result, their war horses also ate very sweet.
Many leaders couldn''t believe it. They directly grabbed a handful of grass, checked it in person, discussed it with each other, and confirmed that it was not fresh grass. At least they cut it for more than half a month.
However, at the moment, the weather is hot, let alone half a day, even three days, I''m afraid the cut fresh grass will wither and rot, which can''t be eaten by horses.
"Whether you can eat or not, these BMWs are the best proof! It''s not easy to put it in summer. If it''s cold winter, as long as you store enough grass, you can still supply livestock to eat grass throughout the winter without losing fat!" Merton pointed to the war horse road where you are eating silage.
Many leaders couldn''t help being silent. Everything in front of them shocked them too much. It can be said that it has changed the customs of the grassland for thousands of years.
"Even if what Lord Mo said is true, I''m afraid this jar alone can''t hold much grass!" Murong Shun saw the leaders pounding with emotion and had an idea, pointing out a defect of Merton.
"It''s just how much a jar can hold. If you want to save enough cattle and sheep to eat grass, how many stalls do you need?" a tribal leader who followed murongshun smacked his tongue.
Other tribal leaders also flinched at the news. Tuyuhun tribe can''t make pottery jars. So many jars have to be transported from Datang to Qinghai. I''m afraid their value is no less than that of cattle and sheep.
Merton sneered. He naturally knew why these tribes reacted so much, but he had already thought of the way to deal with it.
With a wave of Merton''s big hand, the curtain behind the leaders slowly fell, and the leaders were surprised to find that there was a deep pit behind them.
With the order of Hulun leader, a large number of herdsmen of Hulun tribe poured carts of cut grass into the deep pit, and someone stepped on the grass specially, so that more grass could be loaded in.
The tribal leaders stared at a small pit and loaded a cart of grass. At most, the quantity was smacking. When they couldn''t fit it, they covered the pit with several boards, and then covered it with soil.
Merton said, "this is the easiest way to store silage. There are 28 carts of grass in a pit, enough for hundreds of cattle and sheep. It''s cold in winter, so it''s easier to preserve. As long as you store enough grass, you can guarantee that you won''t go bad until the beginning of spring next year."
"Hoo!"
Suddenly, the leaders were short of breath. In winter, there was a lack of grass, and only a small amount of hay could be used. The cattle and sheep lost fat seriously. Every winter, the cattle and sheep would lose a lot. According to Merton''s silage, they must be able to feed more cattle and sheep in winter.
Even Gao Shilian breathed out heavily, with a little worry in his eyes. He can naturally see the value of silage from his old eyes. If he was won by all parts of the grassland, wouldn''t it be like adding wings to the tiger.
Merton doesn''t care about this at all. Now Datang has such peerless weapons as gunpowder. It would be too cowardly if it could be overturned by the grassland departments.
"I believe that with this good recipe, there will be more cattle and sheep on the grassland, and the herdsmen will never be hungry again. Datang will buy cattle and sheep at a high price to ensure that you will live a rich life." Merton took the opportunity to add another fire.
"Thank you, mohou!" all the leaders said happily. At this moment, the hatred between Datang and Tuyuhun seemed to disappear in a moment,
"Horseshoe!"
"The method of wound suture!"
"Well drilling method!"
"The method of storing grass!"
If this series of unique skills are popularized on the grassland, it can be imagined that the life of herdsmen in the future will be better than before.
The whole scene was harmonious. It was a kiss of the Tang family.
