Chapter 199: King Liang's Meat
What Li Su didn't know was that this matter had already stabbed the emperor Li Shimin's ears at this time.
There is no way, such a big thing happened in Chang'an City, how could the Jinwu Street Envoy not know about it?
And with such a crowded crowd, it is easy for a stampede to occur, and once it causes casualties, it will be their responsibility at that time.
And the initiator of this matter is His Royal Highness King Liang, who is a master who wants to break other people's legs at every turn.
They didn't dare to reason with King Liang either.
So, he immediately reported the matter to the emperor.
After Li Shimin heard this, he was also taken aback, and secretly scolded Li Su for not knowing the severity.
Immediately after, Li Su hurriedly sent people down to maintain order, fearing that it would cause a mass incident.
However, after Li Shimin's people went down, they found that the congested streets had already been cleared.
The people in line lined up in a long line, and the line actually spread to half of Chang'an City.
After they reported the news to Li Shimin, they couldn't help but make Li Shimin cry and laugh.
This is a child, it really doesn't stop.
Presumably, this matter will inevitably provoke those imperial histories to impeach him, right?
But how do these imperial histories know that the reason why Yu'er did this was actually to promote pork, so that the people of the Tang Dynasty could raise more pigs and improve their lives?
He didn't do this nonsense, but for the people of the Tang Dynasty!
This matter, Li Su mentioned it to Li Shimin before.
After Li Shimin went back, he also made various measures, but they have not had much effect.
But this time, because Su'er launched such a delicious way to eat, it immediately promoted the entire market.
Li Shimin believes that this time there is no need for the imperial court to come forward to publicize, and the people themselves will take the initiative to raise pigs.
It's just that the soup boiled with pig's head and pig water is really that fragrant?
When I have time, I'm going to try it.
Since so many people are fascinated by it, it must taste delicious.
……
For three days in a row, the first floor of the world is free for people to taste, and those who come do not refuse until they are finished.
Three days later, the first floor of the world began to introduce new dishes.
There are more than a dozen of these new dishes, all made from different parts of the pig's body.
Although the price is expensive, the taste is really not enough.
Moreover, even those civilians, after getting the pork recipe posted by King Liang, went back and someone tried to make it, and found that the taste was really extremely delicious.
Therefore, in just two or three days, the number of people eating pork in Chang'an City gradually increased.
In the past, when they didn't know how to cook pork, they mostly ate chicken, duck, goose or fish when they wanted to open meat.
But none of these are as cheap as pork.
There is such a delicious and cheap meat as pork, of course, pork should be the first choice.
Although not all families can eat pork every day, that is, they can buy a few catties every other day to satisfy their hunger.
But it can't stand the large population base in Chang'an City, so the pork sold in these two days is not enough to sell.
Seeing this situation, those smart people began to quietly buy piglets and began to raise piglets.
And every day, the villagers of Wucheng Village have to send several pigs to the first floor of the world.
However, on a pig, there is only one pig's head, a pair of water, and four pig's trotters.
These have to be consumed a lot every day, but it is impossible to consume so much pork.
What about pork that can't be consumed on the first floor of the world?
Because Li Su bought two shops for the sake of losing money some time ago, he has not opened it recently when he is idle.
This time, Li Su simply took out a shop very close to the first floor of the world and sold pork in it.
The price of pork is also very cheap, only two pennies a catty.
However, those people have bought pork on the first floor of the world, and when they compare it with the pork they bought in other places, they can't help but find that the pork sold on the first floor of the world is more fragrant.
Well, the pigs raised here are all castrated.
Most of the pork bought elsewhere has not been castrated, and of course the taste is not the same.
Because of this situation, in the next few days, it directly led to a shortage of pork sold on the first floor of the world.
Those people, only when they can't buy pork on the first floor of the world, will go to other places to buy it.
There are even some people who would rather not eat a meal than go anywhere else.
In this case, in line with the market, the price of pork was directly raised to three cents a catty.
And Rao is so, it is still in short supply.
And if the price of pork is a pound and the price of live pigs is a pound, the villagers who raise pigs in Wucheng Village will suffer a loss.
Therefore, Li Su was very simple and asked the villagers of Wucheng Village to leave the pig's head, water and pig's trotters to the first floor of the world after killing the pig, and Li Su raised the price accordingly.
And the rest of the pork, let them go to the shop to sell it themselves.
In this way, although His Royal Highness King Liang is not buying at the price of one penny and one catty, in fact, their income has increased.
And the pork market has always been in short supply, and the tens of thousands of pigs raised in their four villages are not worried about selling at all.
Some villagers even continue to buy piglets to expand the scale of breeding.
However, at this time, the price of piglets also continued to rise, and it was difficult to buy.
And Li Su quietly gave Willow a trick.
The four of them took the first step on the road to raising pigs.
If the pigs raised by other people want to grow, it will take at least a year, and the pigs they raise will not be sold at all.
But as more and more people raise pigs, they have little advantage in the future.
Therefore, Li Su's trick to the willow branch is to let them buy sows now, give birth to piglets and sell piglets.
It is believed that in the next few years, piglets will sell well and be in short supply.
The profit of raising piglets is definitely much greater than that of raising pigs.
Listening to Li Su's words, Liu Shu suddenly opened his mouth, nodded again and again, and threw himself to the ground at the five-body admiration of His Royal Highness King Liang.
King Liang is not a prince, and other people's heads are good!
So, after going back, Willow quickly organized people in the four villages and began to raise sows and piglets.
Although this cycle is long, they have calculated that raising piglets is more profitable than raising pigs.
In the future, these four villages will become the supply base of piglets, and people who want to buy piglets for dozens of miles nearby will come here to buy them.
Raising piglets has actually formed a feature here.
Of course, that's all for later, so let's not mention it for now.
At this point, the tens of thousands of pigs raised by the people who ate the seal were finally perfectly solved, and Li Su also breathed a sigh of relief.
And because of Li Su's ode to pork, the people in Chang'an City like to cook pork in this way.
The dishes made in this way are affectionately called Liangwang meat.
(Actually, Yanyu originally wanted to write a scene where Cheng Biting Jin and a bunch of old people ate meat, but then I thought you would definitely say Yanyu, so I skipped this scene, let's just dry goods :))
