Duke kewilt left the table angrily, ending the debate on the subject of river lords, lords, freedom, development and so on.


    Neither father nor son could persuade anyone. The Duke scolded pace for his stupidity, innocence and ignorance! And pace evaluated him as narrow, conservative and hypocritical.


    ……


    When her father left, Eugenie stared curiously at pace and said, "pace, you have changed so much that you have defeated your father. I can''t believe it!"


    Eugenie has seen a lot of quarrels between pace and her father, but she saw it for the first time today when her father ended up in a rage. In the past, it was the father who was responsible for teaching and scolding, and pace was responsible for talking back and resisting.


    "Hey, you must be happy? It''s a rare victory." Eugenie leaned forward with an expression I know very well.


    The indignant departure of his father did make pace feel more exciting and pleasant than defeating the enemy with a sword.


    Looking at the cunning Eugenie on his face, he smiled and said, "no matter how you change, you will always be my family."


    "Cut, I don''t need a stupid brother like you." straightened up, Eugenie looked proud.


    Then, she immediately put on a curious expression and asked, "pace, are all the things you said about Shanghe collar when you argued with your father just now true? The count of Lingfeng castle still cultivated in person?"


    "Of course it''s true." facing his sister, pace''s tone suddenly became mild. "However, it''s just to promote new agricultural tools and farming methods. As a lord, if you really go to cultivated land, you should be regarded as not doing business."


    "What is the agricultural tool? Is it recorded in the books of Xuecheng? Have you seen it with your own eyes? It should not be the story he deliberately made up in order to win your trust?" Eugenie asked one after another.


    Pace shook his head and said, "I don''t know what those agricultural tools look like because it''s not the time to plant seeds several times."


    Hearing the speech, Eugenie immediately rolled her eyes and showed a disdainful expression of "you were cheated".


    Peering at her discontentedly, pace then said, "although I haven''t seen those agricultural tools, I''ve heard of them, and I''ve seen the wheat growing in the field with my own eyes. In the same field, the wheat yield in Shanghe is at least half that in other places!"


    "More than half!" Eugenie exclaimed, holding her forehead with her hand and looking like a headache - her stupid brother must have been deceived by the count of Lingfeng castle!


    "Pace," she said, "Although I don''t know the purpose of the count of Lingfeng castle, from the valuable gifts he gave you, it is likely that we please us, just like his father said. Please, think with your head, how can you increase the wheat by half just by changing the sowing and farming methods? He must be deceiving you in order to make you feel good about him and Shanghe collar To some support. Maybe he can''t even distinguish wheat from oats! "


    Looking at Eugenie with a determined face, pace said, "do you know how to plant wheat in order to have a good harvest?"


    "This is what the serfs need to know. How can I know. Maybe... It''s to irrigate and take good care of it, just like the flowers in the castle?" Eugenie looked at him curiously.


    Pace smiled, shook his head and said slowly: "Planting wheat is different from planting flowers. It can be roughly divided into three parts: land preparation, sowing and care. Land preparation is to make the land suitable for planting before sowing. In order to meet the requirements, fertilization is also required in addition to ploughing and weeding. The depth of ploughing should be more than half a foot, and the wheat roots should be developed, so that the wheat can grow better and will not fall down , fertilizer is the product of fecal fermentation, which can ensure... "


    Facing Eugenie, pace talked in an orderly way about various techniques of growing wheat. At this moment, he was not like an aristocrat at all, but more like an experienced farmer.


    Eugenie opened her mouth slightly, and her delicate face was surprised.


    If pace talks about fighting skills, she will never be surprised even if he is clever. Because his stupid brother is a talented swordsman in the north, the champion of the king''s martial arts competition and the youngest golden guard!


    But what he''s talking about now - farming! It''s clear and reasonable.


    When pace finished talking about wheat planting skills, Eugenie looked at him with a worried face: "pace, these years... You won''t be locked up in the farm and farming by the king?"


    Speth, who was thirsty and sipping ale to quench his thirst, almost didn''t spray the residue on Eugenie''s face!


    "What do you think, you fool! How could the king lock me up in the farm! Count tustra personally told me these!" pace said angrily. He found that even some servants on the side looked at him sympathetically.


    With a breathtaking sigh of relief on her face, Eugenie immediately said, "in that case, we also use such farming methods, which can not only increase the wheat yield of the farm, but also make the town clean! Pace, if this is true, my father will be very happy!"


    Looking at Eugenie with an excited face, pace said: "it''s no problem to clean the town. Now in Shanghe Town, feces are very scarce. However, feces and new farming methods are not enough to increase wheat production significantly. According to Lord Arthur, feces is only the simplest fertilizer. If you want to greatly increase food production, you must use chemical fertilizer."


    "Chemical fertilizer?" Eugenie asked puzzled.


    She wanted to say that it doesn''t matter if it doesn''t increase production. As long as she can dispose of the feces in the town, it''s a great good thing. But what is chemical fertilizer? What is chemistry?


    Now Eugenie asked pace.


    After thinking about it, he asked, "do you understand?"


    Shaking her long chestnut hair, Eugenie nodded hard and looked at pace like a curious baby waiting for the answer.


    Facing Eugenie''s curious eyes, pace wanted to send her directly and let her look through the books he brought back.


    But after thinking about it, he suddenly felt that if he did so, it did not seem to accord with his tall image in Eugene''s heart at the moment, so he forced himself to be calm, frowned and tried to recall the scene when Arthur explained similar problems to him.


    "A glass of water is made up of drops of water. Do you know what a drop of water is made of?" pace imitated Arthur''s tone.


    "Two smaller drops of water!" Eugenie answered immediately.


    "That''s right! What about the smaller water? It''s so small that we can''t see it and can''t use" a drop "to describe it. What''s it made of?" pace immediately asked after imitating Arthur.


    My sister''s answer as like as two peas in the first year, is confident of her answer.


    "Water vapor!" Eugenie thought and said immediately, "very, very small water vapor! It is the white fog after the water is boiled, but very small!"


    Ah! Pace was stunned. Why is this different from my original answer?


    "No, no, no, Eugenie, you have to answer no, so that I can continue to answer for you. And you''re not right."
