The work of autumn harvest is gradually completed as different crops mature one after another, and even autumn sowing is completed.

In autumn, it is naturally not just Yang Heng's family. Now, winter wheat is planted around the Yang family, and even around Chang'an. At this time, it was not the time when Yang Heng had just traveled. In those years, it was really hard to see a few of them growing winter wheat. Why? Because few of them like to eat this wheat.

Speaking of this, it is exactly what Yang Heng wondered about, because at that time, people generally planted more barley. In fact, there was not much difference between barley and wheat, which was the raw material for brewing beer. But why didn’t beer appear in China? By the way, there seems to be a kind of hop thing added to it before making beer.

Perhaps, there is a difference in taste between barley and wheat. Indeed, Yang Heng also felt that various cakes such as flax cakes made with wheat flour were worse than those made with barley flour. If you taste it more carefully, it was not because of the bad taste, maybe it was a habit problem, and it was also because of the planting. Before Yang Heng planted winter wheat, the wheat yield here was less than that of barley. It was not Yang Heng's previous life. The barley yield was much less than that of wheat.

When Yang Heng made the steamed buns made of flour, the barley began to grow slowly, and there were more foods like flour steamed buns on the market. Compared with before, there were no foods like steamed buns. They were just slightly fermented half-dough steamed buns. Naturally, the taste was still better with barley flour. In recent years, barley has still grown a certain amount. The drought resistance of barley is much stronger than wheat, so barley should still be grown in some mountains with sparse water sources.

Now Yang Heng is also a little worried that barley may soon disappear in the Tang Dynasty. Why? It is because of the use of water trucks, and the water system in the entire Tang Dynasty in the early Tang Dynasty, it is easy to raise water to a higher place. Especially the wheat seeds improved by Yang Heng, which are several times higher than the barley yield. In this era of very little grain yield, people will easily abandon barley with low yields. Don’t joke about the taste of wheat with high yields. This is not enough to eat enough food. What other flavor is needed? Even the rich people’s homes also need to give the people some high-yield wheat.

Yang Heng sometimes wonders. Will his arrival make a species disappear? But after careful consideration, he laughed a little. The barley still has a certain status. At least some families of officials and wealthy people still need this good-taste food. It will not let it die. Even Yang Heng himself also likes to eat some food made from barley flour. After Yang Heng arrived here, he learned a little delicious food. I don’t know whether it is good or bad. Did he start to move towards the goal of foodie?

Thinking of eating, by the way, how about the grapes in the mountains, Yang Heng suddenly remembered. He was originally planning to transplant grapes outside the mountains this year, but he was delayed by a sudden smallpox. If not, it would be better to go to the mountains to take a look.

…………

Looking at the scene in front of him, Yang Heng was shocked, but he saw the flower pots all over the vineyard, pulling up and down with ropes, and there was a grape growing inside each of the flower pots, and some even had grapes growing on them.

"Young man, you are here. Look, we did it according to your wishes. It's really good. The grapes in these flower pots have basically bear fruit this year. If they are cut from the basin, they will take them home and keep them in the house. Maybe there will be a crop of grapes in winter."

At this time, a fruit farmer came forward to Yang Heng and introduced that last year, Yang Heng once made a suggestion, "Oh, if I hadn't been in a hurry to transplant these grapes next year, I might be able to use a flower pot to grow grapes. I would just pass the new branches of the grapes through the bottom of the flower pot, and then put soil in the flower pot. I think the grapes are still on the seedlings, so it can not only make grapes but also take root. At that time, cut off the grape seedlings at the bottom of the flower pot, and the grapes in the pot will survive and continue to make grapes in the next year."

"Little Langjun, tell me, what kind of method is this?" When Yang Heng said this, an old farmer was interested and asked the bottom of the question. "This thing looks like this. Look, when the flower pot is burned, it is made into a hole in the bottom. In fact, this is also a must for making a flower pot. Why? Because there is a hole to ensure that the moisture in the flower pot is suitable. We can completely use this hole to let the branches of a new grape seedling pass through from the bottom..." So Yang Heng taught these old farmers a lesson on growing grapes with flower pots. If this is what Yang Heng created, the answer is naturally no. Yang Heng also saw this method in an agricultural program in his previous life, so he thought about it here, but these old farmers didn't think so. They naturally thought about it. What Yang Heng said must be true. They never doubted it, so this result was achieved.

"Well, okay, not bad, you are all good, by the way, how many new branches can be used?" "Little Langjun, do you still want to...?" "Ah, no, can the branches be completed now? If not, it will be necessary to transplant them outside next year, otherwise the time will be delayed too long. By the way, let the butler transport the grapes in these flower pots later."

To be honest, although this is a surprise, Yang Heng didn't care much. Now they are not lacking fruits, but wine, so naturally he would not object to it. There is nothing to give gifts this year, so this is a good gift. Moreover, it is also a good New Year gift for shareholders of some industries to send these few pots of grapes, right?

"Old Zhang, come." Old Zhang, the old farmer who is responsible for grapes among these old farmers, "Young man, call me." "Yes, do you think that the grapes in these pots can still produce another crop of grapes in winter?" Since I thought of giving gifts, it is different to give a grape on the order of grapes.

"Well, if the fertilizer is sufficient, make another fork and put it in the greenhouse in time, and most of the grapes will bear fruit." "That's good, that's good, right, and there is the question just now, are there any new grape seedlings?" "Yes, yes, there will definitely be no delay in transplanting grapes next year. At least it can guarantee more than one acre of vineyards. I wonder how much you need, Xiaolangjun." "Well, this is enough, enough."

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, can I give me dozens of grapes in these pots?" That, why do you have them everywhere? Yang Heng was a little depressed. Obviously, if Yu Zhang wanted them, it was naturally to send them to the palace to show off, but he had to give them. In this case, some ministers might have to think about the gifts from other ministers. Because Yu Zhang gave them too much, Li Er would also give them to the ministers. This is always a new thing, right? You must know that at this time, gold and silver are just a number for some ministers. Li Er's reward for them is just a routine matter. It seems that there is something wrong with not rewarding them. Reward, they really don't lack gold and silver. And these grapes will naturally make Li Er's eyes lit up, and even Yang Heng planned to let Li Er blackmail them.

"How is it, brother-in-law, just give it to me." Yu Zhang hugged Yang Heng's arm and acted coquettishly, while Yang Heng was a clever girl, and this little girl began to grow up.

"Okay, I'll give it to you, okay to stay away from me?" "Hehe, I know my brother-in-law is fine, slap." Yu Zhang actually kissed Yang Heng's face boldly. Obviously, this wife couldn't escape, so Yang Heng was just waiting for Li Er's anger.
