The Traverser of Marvel World

Chapter 704: Wubao and Assassination

To put it bluntly, the things that were planted in the experimental field were nothing new, they were the high-yield wheat seeds given to Ed Stark, the lord of Winterfell.

The only difference is that Liu Ruian improved this wheat before getting it to the experimental field in Pantos for trial planting.

After all, the geology, soil, and climate of Pantos are different from those of the Seven Kingdoms. Targeted improvements will not only make these wheat varieties more adaptable, but also keep the yield at an exaggerated level. .

Given the geographical location of Pantos, there is no shortage of water sources, but most of them are sea water.

Although fresh water resources are not considered scarce, they are definitely not rich.

It would definitely be very troublesome to irrigate a large experimental field by relying on normal agricultural and water conservancy technology alone.

But after Liu Ruian analyzed some of the mysterious side forces of this world, the work in this area became a little easier.

No, the seawater brought in by the artificially dug underground waterway will be directly introduced into a building called a water tower.

This product that combines the two power systems of the technological side and the mysterious side can purify seawater into "fresh water" to a certain extent.

Even if this "fresh water" is still somewhat different from real fresh water, whether it's the high-yielding wheat seeds produced by Liu Ruian or drinking in small quantities is no longer a problem.

The light salt water purified by the water tower is very pure. After boiling and cooling, it can be straightened and become the favorite drink of those heavy manual workers.

In addition to purifying water that can be used to irrigate farmland and drink for humans and livestock, water towers also have some functions with relatively high economic value.

One of the most interesting items is the production of sea salt.

In fact, given the location of Pantos near the sea, it is said that there is no shortage of salt.

But the problem is that there is a big difference between salt and salt.

The salt eaten by ordinary people, hehe...the taste can definitely be described as "sour and refreshing".

Even the salt that rich people eat is at the level of pickle salt in the real world, or even worse.

However, the sea salt extracted after being purified by the water tower is as fine as sand and white as snow, and the taste is quite pure. It is definitely the best sea salt.

Sea salt of this quality is still a sought-after commodity even in cities near the sea, not to mention being sold in inland areas.

The sea salt extracted from many water towers every day is not a small quantity, but it is not worried about sales.

Basically, it has been pre-ordered before it is produced, so it is not possible for any merchant to order it.

When the carriage officially entered the area of ​​the experimental field, it was easy to see teams of soldiers patrolling back and forth on the ridge.

In the farmland, a large number of hired laborers and criminals are busy, and the strong buffaloes are either pulling carts or reclaiming new fields.

The entire experimental field is divided into two parts, one part is used to grow high-yielding wheat, and the other part is full of emerald green "weeds".

Even for the people living at the bottom, it is a great happiness to be able to eat enough of the staple food every day, but it is impossible to only eat the staple food under normal circumstances.

Given the geographical location of Pentos, seafood is not a rare commodity.

But after so many years of fishing, not to mention the complete depletion of offshore marine resources, but with the fishing technology of this era, it is purely a joke for an individual to rely on the sea to make a fortune.

In order to enrich the food on the people's table and add some economic products to Pentos, while developing a new type of high-yield wheat, they also did not forget to cultivate a kind of pasture grass that is very popular.

Combining the advantages of many pastures and certain plants, the varieties developed by Liu Ruian not only have an ultra-short growth cycle, super adaptability, super-rich nutrients, super good taste, but also have more Economic Value.

When these pastures bloom, honey, essential oils, and perfumes alone are three high-value-added commodities, and even high-yielding wheat is even more valuable after planting.

Not to mention that young leaves can be eaten as vegetables,

The young shoots can also be fried to make tea.

In addition, this kind of pasture itself also has a strong function of fertilizing the field and improving soil quality. From an economic point of view, it is enough to throw out the high-yielding wheat.

This is also the reason why Illyrio Mopatis, as the governor, was puzzled by Liu Ruian's large-scale planting of high-yield wheat, and even the cultivation of new rye varieties by the research institute.

In the opinion of the governor of Pantos, since the value of this kind of pasture is so high, why not grow wheat and rye? Just plant these pastures on a large scale.

As for the issue of food, with the scale of Pantos's maritime trade, is it possible that if you have money, you won't be able to buy goods?

There is really nothing wrong with such an idea if it is only placed on the free trade city-state of Pantos.

But Liu Ruian's plan is not just as simple as a free trade city-state, but the entire world of A Song of Ice and Fire.

The reclamation time of the farmland is not long, and the wheat seedlings provided by the research institute are still very immature.

But the emerald green color and the exuberant vitality make it easy for people to see the hope of a good harvest.

After a while, the carriage stopped at a place that looked like a shrunken castle.

Wubao, also known as Wubi, is a folk defensive building.

Around the time of Wang Mang and Tianfeng, there was a great famine in the north and social unrest. In order to protect themselves, the wealthy families built docks and camp walls one after another.

Liu Ruian knew very well that what he did in Pantos would definitely cause all kinds of troubles.

Especially the experimental field, which is built outside the city and is very important at the same time, needs enough manpower to protect and control it.

So there was a building like Wubao that shouldn't exist in this world.

Of course, Liu Ruian is not so stupid as to copy it mechanically.

In addition to improving the actual situation in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire, it also used the mysterious side method obtained after its own analysis.

In this way, not only does this new type of dock have sufficient military power, but it also has some other functions.

For example, the deep processing of agricultural products, processing wheat into flour, noodles, and even maltose and beer.

The same is true for new pastures. Collecting young leaves as vegetables, frying young shoots to make tea, raising bees after flowering to collect honey, harvesting stamens, extracting essential oils from flowers, and processing perfume can basically be done in Wubao.

Even the raised livestock can be processed or further processed into various products in Wubao.

As for the problem of manpower, it is also easy to solve. Only 500 Predator soldiers are needed, and ten times or more manpower can be easily managed to carry out various tasks.

After Liu Ruian spent some time inspecting the Wubao, he set off to head north.

In the north of the experimental field, there is another economic crop that is in the trial planting stage.

But when the carriage drove to a remote section of the road, a wave of arrows suddenly rushed towards the carriage.
