Chapter 4 Tell me about the Tibetan Turks

"Brother Li Yixian, look at what I brought you."

In the morning, when Li Yi was looking after the steward and said that he would persuade him to stay, Li Chengqi came.

"Steward, listen to me, sell it, dig it up and sell it to whoever wants it, and then plant grapes for me."

Li Yi gave an order to the steward to greet Li Chengqi.

Eighty acres of mulberry trees were left here, saying that they were for raising silkworms and then weaving cloth.

Li Yi resolutely refused to agree, and handed over the rent to the imperial court, and handed over the wheat he could grow.

The rest is bought with money, and there are no mulberry trees left.

He's going to plant grapes, a big patch of grapes.

When Li Chengqi approached, Li Yi saw that this person with some means sent a cow.

A cow that kills the bleeding.

"Brother Xian, the cow is for you, and it will be eaten at your place at noon." Li Chengji was very happy to see Li Yi's surprised expression.

"I immediately told them to squeeze soybean oil." Li Yi did not refuse.

Take Li Chengqi to the oil mill, and the manservant comes to operate.

Li Chengqi and the eunuchs around him watched.

Li Yi asked people to serve tea, and ran to the kitchen to deal with a whole cow by himself.

At lunchtime, even with 42 students, they all ate beef bone tofu and wild vegetable soup.

The staple food has become small rice, which is normal rice, and eating noodles every day is too luxurious.

Li Chengqi and the eunuchs also ate this, including Li Yi.

He was handling cattle all morning, and he was not a professional beef seller, so he had to take his time and didn't have time to cook anything else.

Fortunately, he marinated the tendon meat, and he could take away two large pieces of sauce beef for Li Chengqi at night.

The process of oil extraction over there has not yet been completed, and the billet is being made, and the wooden wedge can be smashed in the afternoon.

He also exchanged his five hours of life for a pound of chili noodles, not including chili seeds.

If you want to change pepper seeds, you need to change 50,000 hours of life.

Let's not talk about whether he has so much lifespan, just say that he has a lifespan of nearly eleven and a half years, and he is reluctant.

Li Yi made some spicy beef sauce, as well as chili oil.

The cow tendon let the big brother who had a way to get the whole cow take half of it away at night, spicy.

For the rest of the stuff he was going to put on ice cubes and freeze them for two days, and the day after tomorrow he grilled the skewers.

Because I have money, the soy sauce I took yesterday was said to be 55,000 in the afternoon by the eldest brother with the same surname today.

He had to buy a thousand catties first, and at the same time he found that his life span had increased by three hundred and twenty hours.

Li Yi is also unclear why selling soy sauce increases lifespan.

But when he had money, he was going to hold a poetry party for forty-two students.

Invite other friends to come to Zhuangzi to eat and drink, and then help promote soy sauce.

One hundred large cylinders, one cylinder will produce 200 catties of oil at one time.

"Do you know that there will be more cattle and sheep soon?" Li Chengqi ate delicious pickles and said to Li Yi.

"Where are the cattle and sheep?" A map appeared in Li Yi's mind, and the upper part of Gyeonggi Province was Turkic, and there were grasslands there.

"Turkic." Li Chengqi put on a look that I know a lot about the international situation.

Li Yi smiled and shook his head: "Impossible, Mo Si that person is too ambitious, taking advantage of the instability of my Tang Tian's alternate position, he frequently attacks him, how can he stop fighting?" ”

"Especially at the moment, Your Majesty is worried every day, and the country is in fear, and he coordinates with the generals."

"Local political affairs are redundant, and the Turks, Western Turks, and Tibetans are eyeing each other. Tibet is even worse. ”

"I, Tang Zheng, are rejecting Tibet and resisting the Turks. If I were silent, I would also fight. ”

"Otherwise, when the Tang Dynasty stabilizes the Tang border, will there still be a day when I will emerge as a Turk?"

Li Yi briefly talked about the situation.

With a click, the chopsticks of the eunuch next to him fell to the table.

Li Chengqi's eyes widened, wondering if he was talking to the emperor's brother and the prime ministers.

Rejecting Tibet and resisting the Turks is a matter for the court.

You are a teenager who opened a Zhuangzi, why do you also know? Who leaked the news?

"How can Brother Xian know so well? Is it a lie? Li Chengqi asked.

"Clear? What is clear and unclear about what is laid out? ”

"Brother Ren, please see, the Tubo workshop and farming are not bad, the Tang and soil borders are constantly rubbing, and the Tang Dynasty has more attacks and fewer victories."

"The prince is young, and the regent of the prince mother Wu Lu died the year before last, and the prime minister, Wei Qili Xu Shangnian, took over as the regent."

At this time, Tubo was internally unstable, so it was natural to use troops externally. Gather the hearts of the people in the outside military affairs. ”

Li Chengqi: "......"

He doesn't know what to say anymore, you are a young man who has finally inherited a Zhuangzi.

You don't farm well, what are you doing in the northwest of Tibet?

Does Tibet have anything to do with you? The ploughing cattle on your village are bought from Tibet?

"How can the virtuous brother be so clean...... Studious? Li Chengqi wanted to know the purpose of Li Yi's understanding of these things.

"If the country is in turmoil, the family will be difficult, and if the country is defeated, the family will be lost. Li Yi said confidently.

Li Chengqi had to nod, speechless for a while, the young man was not wrong.

Li Yi continued: "Besides, when I am old and out of office, if I enter the court, Your Majesty has a question, how can I have no good prescription?" ”

Li Chengqi's eyes lit up: "Brother Xian wants to enter the court as an official? ”

"Yes! If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will be good to the world. Entering the office is not for the office, but for educating the people of the world. Li Yi replied.

What Li Yi said from his heart is that only by becoming an official can he better promote social development.

As society develops, he will be able to increase his lifespan.

According to the calculations of time, if he had not done something, he would have lived one hundred and eight days.

Li Chengqi, whose heart was touched, ate and went to see soybean oil squeezing.

The process of squeezing soybean oil is not difficult at all, but the difficulty is how to squeeze it better.

Li Yi urged the steward to find someone to buy the tree.

He doesn't want mulberry trees, and he can only make a few bucks by planting trees and raising silkworms on 80 acres of land.

When grapes are planted, wine is wine, much more expensive than cloudy wine.

Raisins are also fruits, and the price is not low.

Use the money from the sale of wine and raisins to buy cloth and pay for a small amount.

Li Yi has a better planting method and brewing process.

What he needed now was an old vine that was looking for fruit, and he didn't want to raise it for a few years before producing grapes.

Fortunately, at this time, Datang loved to drink wine, and many people planted grapes.

Some people grow grapes that bear little fruit, and the grapes are not sweet.

Li Yi had a way to deal with these situations, but he was in a hurry.

The grapes are about to bloom, how to transplant them when they bloom?

It is usually transplanted in autumn, and after a winter, it is warm in spring to promote root growth.

Transplanting old vines in spring is very harmful to the vines.

It is doubtful that grapes could be produced that year.

Li is anxious, and the steward Song De is even more anxious.

Because the money came, a hundred horses of silk worth 55,000 wen were sent.

The money for five cylinders of soy sauce, and so many cylinders, each cylinder can still produce oil.

The proprietor of his own house is powerful and can make money.

The proprietor said to sell the tree, so let's sell it.

The steward Song De rode the only horse in the village to find people, sell trees, and buy grape seedlings for three to five years.

After eating a full meal, the students who were struggling ran out to help carry the silk.

They did not have the slightest arrogance in the face of Li Yi, the proprietor.

The proprietor is not a coarse person who does not know a few big characters, and occasionally the proprietor accompanies him to write and discuss strategies.

The words written by the proprietor can be written in regular script, and he can write the kind of characters that look very thin but proud.

Before dinner, Li Chengqi personally lit the biogas lamp and praised him and left.

By the way, I took away the sauce beef, cold salad spicy beef tendons, and spicy beef sauce made by Li Yi.

The most terrifying thing is that he doesn't even let go of the brine for making beef sauce.

It's all gone, a big pot.

"Remember to warm the brine every day and chill it when it cools."

Li Yi was very afraid that the other party would have a bad stomach, so he shouted when he sent out Zhuangzi.

As for whether the other party has ice to go to town, Li Yi doesn't have to worry about it.

Sending Li Chengqi away, dinner is still beef bone and wild vegetable soup, but there is no tofu.

The price of tofu is more expensive than rice, and the yield of soybeans is low.

One pound of beans can usually make two pounds of tofu.

Of course, Li Yi used the bean cakes that he had squeezed to make tofu.

Then even if he uses bean cake to make tofu, he can make three catties of bean cake for one pound.

If the beans are not squeezed with oil, he can make at least four catties of tofu.

People Datang used brine to order tofu, and he used gypsum.

After the tofu is cooked, the slag is eaten.

He boiled the tofu residue repeatedly, burned coal for heating in winter, put a pot on the stove, and boiled.

Now that there is biogas, continue to cook.

The last leftover scum is not eaten by people at all, so it is just used to feed pigs and chickens, and cows don't like to eat it.

In this way, he was still thinking about picking a layer of yuba out of the process of cooking tofu with bean cakes.

Now it's the beef bones that have been stewed and the soup is still cooking.

Then continue the stew of wild vegetables.

Until nothing can be cooked, the bones will turn into fertilizer.

Qi Min wrote during the operation, in addition to farm fertilizer, you can also use bone residue and other crop residue oil except sesame seeds to fertilize the field.

However, the bones on Li Yi's Zhuangzi will not be used to fertilize the fields, but will be turned into bone meal to feed the chickens.

Chickens lay eggs, and when calcium is deficient, the eggs are soft-shelled, or even do not lay eggs.

Li Chengqi didn't know that Li Yi Zhuangzi had a set of methods for scientific use.

He didn't eat dinner, and hurried back with his things.

Fortunately, the road is not far, this time go to Tonghua Gate, and then take advantage of the palace gate to open to enter the palace.

Enter the Baifu Hall from the side door and see your father.

When he entered Tonghua Gate, someone had already gone to Anxingfang to find other brothers and go to Baifu Hall together.

When Li Longji heard the news, he also rushed over and took Queen Wang with him.

The other brothers also brought a princess with them when they came.

Greeting Emperor Li Dan and Doulu Guifei, everyone began to taste the food brought back by Li Chengqi.

Yesterday's soy sauce opened a window to a new foodie nation for them.

Today is a door.

They have all eaten beef, but the beef in this sauce is delicious enough when it is not dipped in garlic sauce.

When it was dipped in garlic sauce, everyone's expressions were so happy.

Taste the spicy beef kick tendon again, oops, how can there be such a taste in the world?

This spicy, why the more spicy it is, the more I want to eat it, it is so pure.

The two beef tendons and two cow tendons were quickly eaten by everyone, and one by one they were still unsatisfied.

"Big brother, why don't you recruit that Li Yi to the Shangshi Bureau."

Xue Wang Li Longye licked his lips and said the common thoughts in the hearts of several people.

"Karma must not talk nonsense." Li Chengqi is in charge of his younger brother.

He also said: "Then Li Yi has Lingyunzhi, and when he talks about Tubo and Turkic today, he said......"

Li Chengqi told others what Li Yi said.

When everyone heard this, they were as shocked as Li Chengqi was at that time.

It turned out that the young man had a furrow in his chest and had great ambitions.

That being the case, how could he go to the Imperial Dining Room of the Shangshi Bureau to cook.

After sighing, the noodles are cooked, and the staple food of tonight is soup cakes, mixed with beef and hot sauce.

"Big brother, I heard that you bought back a thousand catties of soy sauce, I don't know how much Li Yi Zhuangzi has left?"

Li Longye, who had just proposed to let Li Yi go to the palace as a cook, was worried about soy sauce again.
