Chapter 6020 Eat well
"Husband, sorry..." Xu Ning said softly after Lu Su got in the car.
"It's my own problem. The Xu family has just done what they have been doing all the time." Lu Su said freely and freely, then opened the car window and looked at Chang'an. He could vaguely see a group of generals watching him on the Chang'an city wall.
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others did not come. They knew what Lu Su did. Although it was indeed time to come and send a trip from personal relationships, Lu Su mixed the three questions together to ask questions, forming a forced palace. Just as Yu Jin said at the time, he could hardly help but give Lu Su a few glances.
In addition, Lu Su went to the Ganges, and in the future, these people would inevitably look up and look down. Guan Yu and others were ready to get drunk and get rid of this matter.
As a result, when the time came and Lu Su was about to leave, the group of people woke up, and then appeared collectively on the Chang'an city wall watching the guards protecting Lu Su to the Ganges.
"Xiang'er, why are you restless? What happened?" After Lu Su closed the car window, he turned his head and saw Ji Xiang's expressionless face, but he was a little restless.
"Sister finally got a full set of medical equipment from Chen Hou, but before she could even enjoy it, she had to go to the Ganges before she could have fun." Xu Ning looked at Ji Xiang and said.
"It's hard for her." Lu Su sighed, then touched Ji Xiang's head, and Ji Xiang was no longer so restless. "Go to have a good rest, those things will be delivered to the Ganges in the future."
"Father, do I don't have to go to school anymore?" Lu Shu asked with confusion.
"You still have to learn and read books." Xu Ning pressed Lu Shu's head and said, "In the future, my aunt will have no students, so I will teach you one."
"Oh." Lu Shu nodded with some loss. He was at the age of not wanting to study. He thought he would not need to study if he went on a long trip, but he didn't expect he had to study.
"Learn, books are still very interesting." Lu Su said gently.
"Let's go, I'm leaving. Zijing has walked more than ten kilometers and crossed the horizon and can't see it." Zhang Fei shouted. They were all standing on the walls of Chang'an to watch Lu Su. As the earliest civil officials under Liu Bei, they came from Mount Tai and started from the end of the day. They had a good relationship at the beginning, but many things were not transferred by their personal will.
"Let's go." Hua Xiong greeted, and then a group of people came down from the city and prepared to continue drinking. They couldn't stay for too long when they came back. Ganges could not keep being empty. Even though they believed in the abilities of Zhong Yao and others, after talking for a long time, Kushan would sooner or later discover it.
"Speaking of this, although we have fought in the south and north for so many years, we have never seen the world of the Central Plains well." Zhao Yun said sadly when he followed Guan Yu down the city wall.
Guan Yu paused, looked at Zhao Yun with his head turned and said nothing in the end. Indeed, most generals and schoolmen in the world don’t have time to take a good look at the Central Plains world.
If you really want to say that you have traveled to most parts of the Central Plains, there are probably only a few people like Sanshi.
In fact, even Liu Bei and Chen Xi did not completely travel around the Central Plains. In the eighth year of Yuanfeng, they originally planned to inspect Yizhou in Yongliang, take the Yangtze River, cross the Grand Canal, go north to Jizhou, take a boat to western Liaoning, and then go land to Liaodong, go west through Youzhou, Bingzhou, and head south to Chang'an.
Unfortunately, the Liu team involved a lot of energy, which led to the original inspection plan being shelved. It is estimated that Yuanfeng will not implement it until the beginning of the tenth year.
In this way, the grand dynasty meeting at the end of the tenth year of Yuanfeng is likely to be postponed again, but nothing is wrong. The grand dynasty meeting at the end of the fiveth year of Yuanfeng is postponed, which is also an old example.
"When the Kushan period is destroyed and the world is settled, we will be idle." Yu Jin said to Zhao Yun. Among the Han generals and schools, Zhao Yun was the one who was most sensitive to the mind.
"Yes." Zhao Yun nodded and said nothing, but he vaguely felt that even if he defeated Kushan, it might not be over.
"Send it away?" Chen Xi was eating braised pork rice, and saw Liu Bei appear, stopping the spoon in his hand and asking Liu Bei.
"Well, I've sent it away. The lunch is good. It's actually one of the eight treasures of the emperor." Liu Bei looked at the braised pork rice from the Zhengyuan boss. He originally wanted to find an excuse to change the topic, but when he fell down, he found a very suitable topic.
Chen Xi paused for a while, then looked down and looked down. Indeed, if you really want to say that it was Chun'an, one of the eight treasures of the emperor of Zhou Li. No wonder every time you eat braised pork rice, the bureaucrats in the Zhengyuan work like holidays. In addition to being really delicious, they probably have this rice of grade.
"Duke Xuande, do you know what I remember when you say this?" Chen Xi took his eyes back from the bowl, then looked at Liu Bei and said.
"What?" Liu Bei asked curiously.
"The princess has been eating Tailao every day for a while." Chen Xi said with a smile. Taking the whole best beef cattle as a diet, according to the Zhou Li, it belongs to Tailao.
"..." Zhuge Liang, who was having a meal, glanced at Chen Xi. If he hadn't known that Liu Tong's imprisonment was often distributed to the Zhengyuan, he would have said something extravagant.
"Times have changed. It was difficult to supply these things before. Now they can supply them, so they seem ordinary, but they are better." Chen Xi curled his smile and said slowly, "Or the goal at the end of the year is to get a bowl of braised pork rice on New Year's Eve."
"I think I'd better forget it. It's almost the Chinese New Year. Now it's a bit nervous. Some things look small, but the number of people is very fatal." Zhuge Liang interrupted Chen Xi, "This spoonful of braised pork, which is a total of 8,000,000 people in the internal and external jurisdictions, is not a matter of money. It takes a lot of energy to allocate personnel."
"Why would you change it to the first day of the Lunar New Year, and have a good meal on the first day of the first lunar month." Chen Xi said with a smile.
"Your way is no different from not changing. There is too little time to go, and there is also too little time to transport meat. Not to mention the manpower problem, transportation alone is troublesome. Moreover, there is no complete animal husbandry in the south, so fish is not used for this thing." Zhuge Liang said while pinching a spoon.
It’s not that Chen Xi thought about it and it was a problem. Zhuge Liang knew that Chen Xi could do it, but this time was too fast, so there was no need to do it.
"That's true." Chen Xi nodded without refuting, "Actually what you said is not the point. The focus is not on what you said. Those problems can be solved. If the eldest princess can send the snacks to people, I can also ship this thing to the point. The real problem is not on this aspect."
"Because the people may not be able to make this thing." The chef brought Liu Bei over the braised pork rice. After taking a bite, Liu Bei gave the answer instead of Chen Xi.
"Yes, those above are not a problem, but the one below is the problem." Chen Xi nodded. It was difficult to distribute supplies, but it had been sent several times. This time, time was tight. For things like this, if you add more meals later, the people would not care about it. They said that it was a New Year's Eve dinner. New Year's Eve is not here and the first day of the New Year is not here. As long as the Lantern Festival arrives before the Lantern Festival, these people are willing to accept it.
In fact, according to Chinese customs, before the Lantern Festival, it is considered the New Year Festival.
On the contrary, how to make braised pork rice after being distributed is a big problem. To be honest, Chen Xi has no confidence in the chefs of this era.
There is a saying that it is hard to cook without rice. Before the Yuanfeng year, the people would basically face the problem of not having enough food supply. In this case, ordinary families have time to study how to cook and how delicious it is, and they don’t even have rice, let alone meat.
In fact, the real explosive growth of Chinese food began in the Tang and Song dynasties. After Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty solved the problem of eating and developed the concept of how to taste better. It was not until the Kaiyuan period that "remembered the prosperous days of Kaiyuan, there were still thousands of families in small towns, and rice was fat and corn white." At that time, there was a foundation for studying various foods.
Earlier, I didn’t even have enough rice, so I’m studying it!
Therefore, if Chen Xi gave it to make braised pork rice, it would be very likely that it would be difficult for those people. Although he could spread the spices and ingredients together, it would be a bit of intentional difficulty.
In the past, Chen Xi could not understand why the military cooks needed systematic training. After coming to this era, Chen Xi realized that it was impossible not to train. Most of the leading soldiers might not be able to cook. What they call cooking is cooked and they can’t make their stomachs worse. The taste is all nonsense.
In addition, people rarely leave the local area these days and have too little contact with the outside world. The reaction is to the leader. That is, after following the army to a new place, the only garbage recipes are done, but the end is done. The local specialties are simply boiled in water and added some salt to eat, so you can still eat enough and be hungry. That's all.
The problem is that such things are really not delicious, and they are even a bit weird.
Especially when the soldiers from the north went south to the Ganges, the first wave of military rations was extorted by Li You from Funan, Mengbang and other places. The main ones were dried mangoes, dried bananas, dried jackfruit, etc.
When the leader of the army received such a wave of military rations, he was stunned. He had never seen such military rations. Forget it, pour it all into a pot and add water to boil it. He cooked it on high heat and stewed it over low heat. The whole stewed into a sticky half paste. Add salt to it, and one person and one big bowl to it.
Chen Xi couldn't imagine what the hell was cooking. Anyway, I heard from Li You that the soldiers liked this kind of thing very much, and it was quite good, especially after adding batter or rice paste to it, it seemed quite delicious. Li You even opened his eyes to the people in the Zhengyuan.
How to say it, if you don’t mention the strange sticky state and don’t add salt to it randomly, you can actually eat it, especially after filtering the strange rice paste and replacing it with the sago rice from Zhuge Liang’s uncle’s house and the roasted fairy grass from Jiaozhou, the taste is actually quite good.
Of course, this is a successful case, but there are too many failure cases, such as the fried drought of aloe vera from Africa, or the one without skinning.
How to say, I will not have diarrhea after eating it, but the taste is really amazing. Therefore, after collecting a bunch of classic dishes from the top soldiers, Chen Xi trained the top soldiers in an orderly manner. I don’t ask how delicious you cook, at least the dishes you need to make should not be so harmful!
There are obviously several pretty good things that make you extremely weird after putting them together.
For example, how to say mango meat, foam, fungus porridge, it is definitely the top spot in nutrition, but when this thing was created by the leader, it was almost impossible to fight directly, because of the color and the mixed style that made people speechless.
In short, since then, Chen Xi has specially organized personnel to train the top soldiers and train the chefs of state-owned factories and mines. He does not ask you to do it well, at least it is acceptable to normal humans. Don’t be fancy and whistle, so that people can’t eat it.
"Is this how?" Zhuge Liang thought about it, then looked at the greasy braised pork rice in his bowl, and couldn't help but nod. Indeed, if this thing is made by ordinary people, it is probably impossible to make, and it is quite difficult.
"Yes, most people have only been exposed to meat seriously in these few years. Even if they could get in touch with it, they were very few and it was difficult to accumulate experience in dealing with meat. Now the mainstream way of making meat is either roasting or cooking. Don't have hope for something as difficult as it is now. If you can't make it, trial and error are also cost." Chen Xi sighed and said.
Zhuge Liang was silent for a while. Indeed, no matter how common the Zhuge family was, no matter how much they were, they were still very different from ordinary people in nature.
At least ordinary people will not have a slave who specializes in taking care of themselves, and even when Zhuge Liang was working in Nanyang, he still had it.
"But as long as we continue to move forward, the people will sooner or later, and they may develop new ways to eat them." Chen Xi said with a smile, then turned his head to look at Yuan Yin on the side, "It's almost time to buy a wave of Southeast Asian spices at a low price and put them in the supply and marketing cooperative. The foundation of peace in the world is to make people eat enough first."
Yuan Yin quickly recorded this incident. The price of spices has plummeted in recent years, but only when they enter the supply and marketing cooperative and all the people can use it, the price will rise a little, and the price should rise a little.
"Just tell the south side." Chen Xi said casually. Southeast Asia is in a state of chaos. The army and the navy are both passive. Lu Xun and Lu Meng have been transferred back from Central Asia. Many problems are directly placed in front of the Jingchu family. They are now at a critical juncture of the turmoil. After all, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are not helping, and they don't even have the foundation to save themselves.
Therefore, Chen Xi’s low-price purchase of spices can even be considered a solution to stabilize people’s hearts. This is equivalent to telling those people that although you are very rubbish, I will not abandon you directly for the sake of the integration of the summer.
