Chapter 90: What is the method?

Zhuo Wenjun was helpless.

I don't know what kind of wind Tang Qi suddenly smoked, if he didn't eat the good beef and mutton venison, what was the good about the unbearable pork?

"Sir, if you're hungry for meat, why don't you send someone to collect some game?" Zhuo Wenjun suggested, "Wild deer, robes, rabbits and even snake meat are all good!" ”

Tang Qi rolled his eyes: "Those things, how can they be compared to braised pork?" ”

Zhuo Wenjun had no choice but to tell the housekeeper to send someone to buy it.

The poor housekeeper thought he had heard it wrong, and only after confirming it again and again did he understand that the Hou Ye really wanted to eat pork.

Is this still worth it?

What is pork, that is the poor people who can't smell meat all year round, and only then will they consider the cheap meat in the mouth.

One of the dignified Nine Emperors, how can Dahan settle down and eat that thing!

Even the subordinates of the Hou Mansion disdain to eat it!

However, his arms couldn't reach his thighs, and he didn't know what kind of ecstasy Hou Ye was fed, so he had to eat pork.

The housekeeper had no choice, and he was afraid that his subordinates would not be able to do things, so he had to go to the countryside outside the city in person, and it took him a long time to buy a few clean piglets.

In these days, pork was not treated as meat at all, it was completely worthless, and few people took it to the market to sell it.

Only in the countryside can there be a few poor people to feed themselves.

The housekeeper of the dignified Hou Mansion actually went to the countryside to buy piglets in person?

This strange thing spread to the hundreds, and soon spread to the princess of Pingyang's mansion.

Princess Pingyang was playing with Wei Qing's two children at that time, and suddenly heard about it, and thought that there was something wrong with her hearing.

"You mean, Settle is going to eat pork?"

"It's true, princess." The steward of the princess's mansion was also very incomprehensible, "You said that An Dinghou is also Jiuqing, and it is rumored that he is a disciple of Xianmen, why do you suddenly want to eat that cheap thing?" ”

Princess Pingyang thought about it, no matter how she thought about it, she still felt incredible.

"What do you think?"

"Villain, is it that you want to do something strange when you are settling down, and you need to use a little piglet, and you deliberately say that you want to eat pork in order to hide people's eyes?"

It has to be said that human imagination is limitless.

When Princess Pingyang heard this, she immediately felt that it made sense.

After all, no matter from which point of view, it is impossible for a dignified lord to be willing to eat that smelly and fishy thing.

"So, I'm a little curious." Princess Pingyang said with a smile, "It just so happens that Your Majesty also said that let our two families have more contacts, so as not to feel lonely in Chang'an alone." ”

"You go and deliver a post, if it's convenient to settle down, I'll also take my wife to see the freshness!"

At the same time, it is also well-intentioned.

After all, the matter of Hou Ye eating pork is too appalling, and when it spreads, it is inevitable that there will be idlers who come to watch the excitement.

The most important thing in Chang'an City is the princes and nobles, and it would be bad if they bumped into Mr. Tang.

Princess Pingyang is the sister of the Son of Heaven in the end, and with her coming forward, those who don't have long eyes will know, and naturally they will no longer be uncomfortable in the Anding Marquis Mansion.

Of course, there is nothing inconvenient about Tang Qi.

So after a while, Princess Pingyang appeared in the Anding Marquis Mansion with Wei Qing's eldest son, Wei Yan.

When he found Tang Qi under the leadership of the steward, he was commanding the subordinates of the Hou Mansion to use Sanhe to pile the pigsty.

The limestone needed for cement must be at high temperature, and there is no condition in the house.

However, the Sanhe soil is also hard enough, so it is no problem to use it to build pigsties.

Five little piglets were temporarily placed in the yard, watched by the people, and were running around.

Zhuo Wenjun also specially found a pig killer, who was standing on the side tremblingly, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

Princess Pingyang looked funny: "Look at this, is it really necessary to raise pigs in Settle Wait?" ”

Tang Qi found out that the guest was coming, and arched his hand with a smile: "It's good for the princess to call me Tang Qi, and if she wants to eat pork, of course she has to start with raising pigs." ”

No way, the conditions of the Han Dynasty are not good.

Originally, Zhuo Wenjun found a pig slaughterer, Tang Qi was quite happy, and planned to hear what the experts had to say.

As a result, the pig killer actually said that it is impossible for pork not to stink, and the piglets are not big, and the largest is about 100 catties, so it is not cost-effective to raise.

Tang Qi was reluctant when he heard it.

Where is this expert, worse than the housewives of later generations!

So there was a scene that Princess Pingyang saw, the dignified marquis was particularly energetic, and the pig killer shrank on the side and didn't dare to speak.

Wei Yan was only a little over ten years old at this time, although he was already the Marquis of Yichun, but under the strict family education, he couldn't even compare to Huo Quai's fingers.

At this time, Xiao Wei's eyes widened with curiosity, although his mind was full of question marks, he still saluted Tang Qi in a proper manner.

Then he asked crisply: "Dare to ask the big farmer order, I heard that the pork is stinky and not delicious, why should the big farmer order eat it?" ”

Polite little children are welcome everywhere.

Tang Qi smiled and rubbed Wei Yan's head: "Pork is actually very delicious, the reason why it is not delicious is because the breeding method is wrong." When the uncle raises the piglet, will you please eat braised pork? ”

Xiao Wei's eyes lit up, and he nodded like pounded garlic: "Okay!" ”

After all, he was born in a wealthy family, and Wei Yan had only heard rumors that pork was not delicious, but he had never really tasted it.

At this time, when he heard Tang Qi say that the pork he raised was delicious, he naturally became curious.

Princess Pingyang has never eaten a pig, but she is not as disgusted as others, but is full of interest: "I don't know what the 'correct breeding method' mentioned by An Dinghou is?" ”

Tang Qi touched his nose: "The princess will know when the time comes." ”

You can't say anything in front of other people's big girls.

"According to my method of raising pigs, not only will the pork not be too fishy, but it is no problem for the pigs to grow two hundred pounds casually. And the cost of raising pigs is not much, even ordinary people can afford to raise them. ”

"Is that amazing?" Princess Pingyang was immediately diverted, "In this way, wouldn't everyone in my Han be able to eat meat?" ”

is worthy of being the emperor's sister, and the angle of consideration is different.

Tang Qi nodded: "Don't dare to say everyone, most people should be fine." And the whole body of the pig is a treasure, not only the meat and offal can be eaten, but also the fat can be used to fry lard, which is economical. ”

In later generations, lard was on a par with rapeseed oil and peanut oil!

"Fat can be used to squeeze oil, but I know." Princess Pingyang said happily, "If lard is really as economical as An Dinghou said, the price of oil in Dahan may be reduced a lot!" ”

Tang Qi was stunned: "Is the price of oil high now?" ”

"Of course, the imperial court has been fighting for many years, and the merchants are hoarding, so it is not easy for the people to get some oil and meat."

Tang Qi reacted at this time.

"I forgot about this stubble, Wenjun, find someone to get some soybeans." Tang Qi said solemnly, "Princess, I have a way to make most of the people eat cheap oil!" ”
