Chapter 0292: Horned Millet
Thinking of this, Zhang Wen turned his head sharply, looked at Zhuge Liang, and asked, "The prime minister just said that this wheat is related to that young man?" ”
Zhuge Liang smiled, "The north is mostly fertile and strong, but even in a good year, it is difficult to get even two and a half stones." With {dream} small ◢.1a but here,"
He pointed to the wheat in front of him again, and said in a high spirit, "Even if it is a normal year, less than two and a half stones, it will be considered a bad harvest." It's all about the cultivation method offered by the young man. ”
The eight-oxen plough can't be hidden, and the curved plough can't be hidden.
Because two things are to be taken out and used, as long as you have the heart, you can always know what these two things look like.
But knowing that these two things are the same thing, whether they can be popularized or not depends on the government in the end.
As the prime minister who oversaw the politics of the Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang naturally has his own political vision of insight into the world.
Now that the North has officially established the Nine-Rank Official Law, it is unlikely that the newly powerful scholars will tolerate something that threatens their privileges.
Even if the rulers of the northern Cao thieves wanted to promote this thing, they would be strongly opposed by the scholar family.
Because of this thing, you can barely say that it belongs to agriculture, but it is more like it belongs to labor, but it certainly does not belong to taxi.
As a family of scholars who have always been advertised as the top level of agriculture and industry, how can they recognize the things of agriculture and industry?
If you admit it, then you have to give up some of the power you just got in your hands? Let the peasants and workers climb up and be on an equal footing with them? This is absolutely not allowed.
Ploughing means letting others plough for themselves, not letting themselves go to the land to farm. Reading is to read oneself in order to master the intellectual resources to enslave others.
Let the peasants and workers climb up...... Isn't this nonsense? When the time comes, who will they enslave?
As for Dongwu, although it is not as open-minded as the Cao thief in the north to win over the family, in fact, who doesn't know that the Sun family was able to gain a firm foothold in Jiangdong because he found a way to eliminate the mustard of the Jiangdong family?
Besides, Feng Yong's cultivation method is not just that he can produce so much grain with the eight-ox plough and the Quyuan plow.
The so-called intensive farming, after intensive farming, don't you have to work hard?
This kind of vulgar work on the farmland, if it is not for the fact that he has personally plowed the land and replaced others, who will take it seriously?
So Zhuge Liang couldn't hide his pride anymore, and it was a matter of course.
Food is the foundation of a country!
"The foreign minister has a request, please allow the prime minister."
Zhang Wen turned around and bent down deeply to salute.
"I don't know what the envoy Zhang is asking for?"
"Please allow the minister to meet with the young man Langjun, if you can see the young talent in Shuzhong, Wen has no regrets about this trip!"
Zhang Wen has been impressed by the people and things in Shu, and the world says that Kong Ming is Wolong, which is really famous. With him, Shuzhong is as safe as Mount Tai. This time, I returned to Wudi, faced King Chen Wu, and made every effort to make friends with Shu.
"This matter," Zhuge Liang said a little apologetically, "I'm just afraid that Envoy Zhang won't be able to get his wish." When this son was old last year, he had already gone to Hanzhong to collect style, and now he is not in Jincheng. ”
"What a pity, what a pity!"
Zhang Wen sighed again and again.
The Dragon Boat Festival is here, which means that the weather will get hotter and hotter.
As soon as the weather gets hotter, mosquitoes increase.
At this time, there were already mosquito nets, called curtains.
It's just that no matter how good the mosquito net is, there will always be one or two that will come in through some invisible gap every night.
Every morning, I always find that there are one or two mosquitoes hanging on the tent that is obviously sleeping without mosquitoes.
With a "horn", the mosquito sucked up the blood, couldn't fly fast, and was suddenly slapped to death by Feng Yong, who gritted his teeth, and then there was a small pool of blood and a corpse in the palm of his hand.
However, since seeing Guan Ji and Amei picking wormwood to prepare for the Dragon Boat Festival, Feng Yong finally remembered how he should repel mosquitoes.
I remember when I was a child, my family was poor, and there were no mosquito coils, so I took sun-dried rice stalks, wrapped them in sun-dried wormwood, and tied them tightly into a fist-sized handle, and then lit them with arm-length handles, so that it burned little by little, and the smoke produced could repel mosquitoes.
Especially before going to bed, be sure to light a handful at the door of the room, so that there will be a lot fewer mosquitoes at night.
Anyway, I'm a turtle, and I don't study chemical engineering, so I don't know how to engage in mosquito coils, so I have to use local methods to repel mosquitoes, which is not a shame.
After repelling mosquitoes like this for several nights in a row, every morning when he got up, Feng Yong habitually looked around in the mosquito net, and found that there were no mosquitoes in the mosquito net, so he nodded with satisfaction.
Well, it should be a good day.
Ah Mei cleaned up the ashes at the door, then came in with a basin, and after serving Feng Yong after washing, she asked, "Lord, today is the fifth festival, the lord wants to eat a few horn millet, and the maid can arrange it." ”
"Horncorn?" Feng Yong was stunned, "What is it?" ”
Dragon Boat Festival, shouldn't you eat brown seeds?
In other words, this Qu Yuan is from the Chu State, and the Chu State is not in the south? Could it be that the legend is a lie? There are no brown seeds yet?
"Horn millet is the name of the people here, and it is also called brown in some places. Sovereign ......"
Ah Mei hesitated for a moment and asked, "Don't you eat it?" ”
Eating horn millet in five heavy sections is a custom!
"Got browns?"
Feng Yongxin said: Sure enough, the Dragon Boat Festival is our China!
"Heavy five knots eat horn millet, naturally there is brown."
Although the name of the horned millet was a bit strange, Feng Yong didn't care, and he drooled a little at the moment.
When I was a child, my mother made brown seeds that were delicious, sticky but not sticky, fragrant and soft, and then left home and went to the north, and I haven't eaten it for many years.
And later, even the atmosphere of the New Year faded, let alone the Dragon Boat Festival?
So the more I went to the back, the more I felt that the New Year's holiday was not interesting.
The annual Dragon Boat Festival is to buy two brown seeds on the street.
Feng Yong didn't have much thought about the morning exercise that morning, and after hurriedly finishing his workout, he returned to the dining hall.
Zhao Guang, Wang Xun and the others had already sat down, just waiting for Feng Yong.
On the table in front of everyone were boiled millet porridge and brown seeds.
Feng Yong picked up a brown and looked at it, it was wrapped quite well, somewhat similar to the triangular brown sold on the street in later generations.
"Alright, let's eat."
Feng Yong couldn't wait to untie a brown seed, only to see that it was millet inside, which was a little sudden, no wonder it was called horn millet, but it was as its name suggested.
A faint smell of herbs wafted into Feng Yong's nostrils.
"It's ...... The smell of wormwood? ”
Feng Yong asked hesitantly.
"Back to the Lord, exactly. This is called mugwort horn millet, which is soaked in rice with mugwort leaves and then wrapped, so there is mugwort incense. ”
Ame replied.
Zhao Guang had already swallowed one in one gulp, and praised, "Amei's cooking skills are good." I used to eat this corn with a bitter taste, which is like the corn made by Mrs. Amei, not only has no bitter taste, but it also has a fragrance, which is delicious! ”
"The horn millet has a bitter taste, because the millet is soaked in ash juice and then wrapped in mushroom leaves, and the horn millet is soaked in mugwort leaves and then soaked in millet rice, so there will be no bitter taste."
Ame explained.
Feng Yong took a bite, well, it may be that Ah Mei used some method to make the millet become sticky, and the faint smell of mugwort also gave the brown a more flavor.
Just why is there no stuffing?
Isn't a brown without stuffing a white brown?
As a turtle that is both a salty party and a sweet party, I won't even be able to choose salty and sweet, so it's hairy!
Without the brown son of the battle between the salty party and the sweet party, it is meaningless!
