Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

　　 Chapter 100 Insecticides

　　 The reason why the price of pyrethrum is so low, in Bruno’s guess, is probably because pyrethrum originally existed in this world.

　　 In the past few days, Bruno has observed all aspects of the world in more detail, whether it is climate, vegetation, soil conditions, mineral types, social culture, he has explored roughly.

　　Except for possessing magic, the social development trajectory in this world and most of the biological species are basically very similar to those on the earth. Perhaps there are some small differences in between, but these differences are almost negligible.

　　 And the price of goods in the system mall is also closely related to it.

　　 For example, the price of an item that originally existed in this world is very low.

　　The melons, fruits, vegetables, such as onions and beets that existed in this world, usually only need single-digit brilliant points.

　　 Even the most precious magic spar veins in the world can also be purchased directly in the system mall with a mere 20 brilliant points.

　　 But, things like drawings of three-masted sailboats, potatoes, corn, etc., which are not available in the world, or that Bruno has not discovered before, are ridiculously expensive.

　　 It can be seen that the price of the system mall is not only marked according to its value and use, but also closely related to the difficulty of obtaining it.

Take this pyrethrum as an example. Because Bruno had seen so many sporadic flowers in the dense forest around the sky garden, the system judged it to be a plant originally in Idalling, so it was in the system mall. The price is exceptionally low.

　　 Although this piece of pyrethrum chrysanthemum present in front of me only consumed Bruno's five brilliant points, its role is definitely not to be underestimated.

　　 With this piece of pyrethrum, the pest problem that has plagued the Idar for many years is almost solved.

　　 Pyrethrum's inflorescence contains four insecticidal components, among which the insecticidal effect of pyrethrin is the most powerful.

　　 Through the extraction of pyrethrins in pyrethrum, it is possible to prepare extremely efficient natural broad-spectrum insecticides, whose insecticidal virulence is more than ten times stronger than that of organochlorine, organophosphorus and other insecticides.

　　 Its mechanism of action is to disturb the normal physiology of insect nerves, causing them to die from excitement, spasm to paralysis.

　　 At the same time, because the amount of pyrethrin required for the preparation of pesticides is small and the concentration is low, it is safer for humans and livestock, and has little pollution to the environment.

　　 But its disadvantage is that it is highly toxic to fish, and it is also harmful to certain beneficial insects. Long-term repeated use can also cause pests to develop resistance.

　　 However, Bruno doesn't care much about this so-called shortcoming, because compared with the contribution that this natural insecticide can make to Idalling, such shortcomings are almost negligible!

Since Idarling’s arable land has more than doubled this year, most of the serfs in Idarling have been tied to agricultural production, which makes the manpower of Idarling for ship construction, new city expansion and road construction more stressful. .

Although due to Idarling’s extensive publicity strategy, the number of people entering Idarling has been increasing in recent months, but most of them are attracted by Idarling’s land policy. To put it bluntly, that’s For the cultivated land provided by Idarling.

　　 Therefore, although the population is growing rapidly, the manpower being dispatched to various places to carry out construction projects is still not sufficient.

　　 And Bruno did not intend to drag the civilians who had come to live in Idar to build those projects at the beginning. Since he wanted to farm, he let them go.

　　Besides, after all, the family has just moved here, so you have to let the new civilians get used to it, which is completely different from the rest of the empire.

　　 Besides, I don’t panic because I have food in my hand.

　　If the war on the northern frontier of the empire starts, no one can tell how the situation will develop.

　　 But, with enough food, Idar has enough confidence!

　　 However, the area of ​​cultivated land in Idar is effectively expanding, but the number of people engaged in agricultural production has skyrocketed!

　　 If the same area of ​​land is placed on the earth of the previous life, only two people are needed to cultivate it, but here, three to five people are needed!

　　The most important reason for the large number of hands **** in the field is insect pests!

In this era of magic but no druids, if you want to exterminate insects, you can only rely on human resources. To put it more bluntly, it is relying on civilians and serfs to pull out the insects with their hands. !

　　 Is it incredible? But this is what happened in Idalling!

　　 If it's just to deworm a few crops in the yard, Bruno would be acceptable, but if it is placed in a vast farmland, such a deworming method may be too inefficient!

　　 The use of pyrethrum to make natural insecticides is the solution Bruno thought hard.

　　Once such pesticides are widely promoted and used in Idarling, a large number of people will be liberated from the cultivated land!

　　 Maybe even the manpower who builds other wonders can get together!

　　Of course...This is just Bruno's casual thinking...After all, ~www.NovelMTL.com~Idalling's existing capital chain would never allow him to do so.

　　 But there is no doubt that the production of insecticides will bring the agricultural development of Idarling to a new level.

　　 Insecticide preparation workshop is established on this hillside with a lot of pyrethrum growing, from picking to preparation, a very complete one-stop service, even the transportation cost of raw materials is saved.

　　 And when picking, the serfs only need to pick off the flowers and stems of the pyrethrum, while the roots can remain in the soil to continue to grow. In this way, Bruno does not need to exchange the pyrethrum every year.

　　 Although only five brilliant points are needed, if you buy it again every year, that would be a big expense.

As for the production principle of the insecticide, Bruno has also copied it on paper and handed it to Sabie. The main task is to purify the pyrethrin contained in the pyrethrum and mix it with the solvent to produce the insecticide through a certain ratio. .

　　 So, as long as you have enough pyrethrum, the next method is much simpler.

　　While talking to Sabie about some precautions for making pesticides, the chicken on the side was also cooked at this time.

　　 "Sit down and eat, too." Bruno picked out a chaffinch covered in mud from the charcoal fire with a branch, and said to Shabi.

　　 "This...is not suitable..." Shabby was obviously hesitant.

　　 "I order you to sit down and eat chicken for me!"
