Chapter 597: Li Er's Sacrifice to Heaven Potato Beef Stew?

Outside Chang'an County, Li Er led the civil and military officials to put the incense case, and officially sacrificed to the sky in front of the field, although there was no ceremonial guard of worship in the past, but behind him, 3,000 farmers and 20,000 troops, all knelt down to the incense case religiously, even if it was just an ordinary incense case with three animal sacrifices, but the momentum was grander than the big sacrifice in the palace at the end of the year.

Li Er was in the middle, hundreds of officials were behind, and even the Emperor Li Yuan rushed to be among them when he heard the news.

"Haotian Wuji, Fu Wei told the Huaxia family, spread to the Tang Dynasty, the people have many disasters, the country is in trouble, God blesses, overseas food, and now it is successful"

A not too long sacrificial text was recited aloud by Li Er in a loud voice, although Li Er did not have internal strength to transmit the sound, but at this moment, everyone held their breath and condensed, devoutly worshipping the sky, Li Er's voice was like an oath, not only to the ears of every worshipper, but also to the far and wide.

Burning incense and praying, lighting the sacrifice to tell the heavens, with a wisp of green smoke rising up, everyone raised their eyes and stared, at this moment, as if this sacrifice from the hearts of the people was truly received by the heavens, everyone felt the power of that belief.

"Heaven has accepted our worship, Ladies and gentlemen, come down to the earth to harvest food"

Li Eryi gave an order, 3,000 people, 20,000 soldiers, orderly according to the plan into the acres of fertile land, began to break the ground and harvest, Li Er with hundreds of officials also came to a piece of land, their task is this acre of potatoes, by the emperor with the hundred officials to harvest the potatoes, Bai Fan was overjoyed, if this thing is publicized, this mu of potatoes can be sold at a sky-high price.

However, Li Eryi poured a basin of cold water, dug up this acre of potatoes, sent them to the heroes monument to worship and comfort the martyrs, and then took them back to be seeded.

Ziyang Zhenren stood beside Bai Fan with a sword on his back and said with a smile, "Senior brother, this immortal grain is really a good thing, the taste is excellent, with this 10,000 acres of seeds, there will be no hunger in the world."

Why don't you go and help with the harvest?"

Bai Fan looked at the way the hundred officials worked, and he had already smiled and couldn't straighten his waist.

"The younger brother still has to command the harvest here, more than 23,000 people need to be managed, besides, this group of people is pampered all day long, we are so skilled, the harvest is too fast, what else are they doing?"

"Well, but at their speed, I'm afraid it's going to sunset to harvest this acre."

"It's okay, people are still enjoying it.

By the way, Senior Brother Ziyang, how do you know that this thing tastes very good, have you ever eaten it?"

Ziyang Zhenren covered his mouth, his heart was broken, and he missed it when he saw the harvest of immortal grain.

"This, I heard that the fairy food is ripe, the old Tao is curious, so I dug out one last night and cooked it, it is very delicious, its quality is like mud but it is not difficult to swallow, the entrance is slightly sweet, one can top two nests, it is a good food to resist things."

Bai Fan couldn't hold back any longer, pointed at Ziyang Zhenren and laughed, "You just boiled potatoes like this, your way of eating, that is, the victims of the disaster year in the year of the catastrophe are hungry and eat like this, you say it's delicious, then the little brother will make you a delicious dish, do you want to eat your tongue?"

At this time, Lao Du Ming ran over, "Master Hou, I have already grabbed an acre, just weighed, mu yield, mu yield"

"Let it go, don't be afraid we don't believe it."

"5,427 catties per mu"

"How many five thousand," Ziyang Zhenren exclaimed.

Bai Fan patted Ziyang Zhenren's shoulder and said with a smile, "Senior brother, don't be surprised, this is a normal yield, look at this situation, the average yield of potatoes this season can reach about 5,000 catties, yes, a bumper harvest, a bumper harvest."

It was nearly dusk, Li Er and the others were finally busy with the mu they were responsible for, looking at the large pile of potatoes piled up in the shape of a hill, and the hundred officials with an average age of fifty-five years old sat on the ground one by one and smiled at the potatoes.

"Come on, send it to the weigh, I want an auspicious number." Li Er shouted.

Who knew that Bai Fan ran over with a large group of people and said, "Come on, come on, they are finally finished, hurry up and pack away, don't weigh it, just calculate it according to the average, everyone has already finished harvesting, wait for them for half a day for this acre, hurry up and start eating, and after eating, you have to clean up the potatoes and leaves in the field overnight to make green storage for cattle and horses." ”

Li Er and the hundred officials were a little confused, what kind of situation did we work hard for a day, and we didn't even give a name

But soon they heard the average yield per mu reported by Lao Du Ming, and no one had any more opinions, the average yield of potatoes per mu was 5,100 catties, and the total yield of 3,000 mu was 15.3 million catties.

Hou Junji came up to Li Er and asked, "Your Majesty, with this batch of grain, it is enough for us to fight a big war of 100,000 people, why don't you hand it over to the minister, and the minister will go to pacify the Wa Kingdom."

Li Er's heart was hot, he looked up at Bai Fan in the distance, and then shook his head, "Forget it, the Wa Kingdom is a disease of ringworm and scabies, you go to train the navy, and all of these will be used for breeding in the coming year." ”

After cleaning up the last acre, Bai Fan took people to the Huotou Army tent that had been set up a long time ago for dinner, although it was simple, but in the season of harvest and work, no one was picky about this, everyone was very excited, this pile of potatoes with high city walls, just don't eat it, just looking at it is a kind of enjoyment.

"Come on, come on, one bowl per person, fresh and hot, the food cooked by Hou Ye himself, one bowl of rice and two steamed buns, full"

The chef transferred from the observation tower held a big spoon in one hand and pointed to the big iron pot with the other and shouted.

"What kind of delicacy is this, it smells so fragrant that I have a great appetite, quick, come to a big bowl."

"Queue to go"

"Bold, this is Your Majesty," Hou Junji next to him shouted.

Wei Chigong stood up, "Lao Hou, Lao Tzu's soldiers don't need you to scold you.

The first level of vigilance in Chang'an County has not been lifted, and everyone abides by discipline regardless of whether they are up or down, and His Majesty is no exception.

His Majesty was invited to go and line up for a meal. ”

Li Er smiled and said, "Respect virtue and govern the army in a good way, when I am rewarded as the Son of Heaven, I should take the lead in queuing." ”

At the foot of the city wall of Chang'an County, the emperor squatted in the corner with hundreds of officials, holding a rice bowl in one hand and a steamed bun in the other.

"Well, it's delicious, I've always heard that the food in Chang'an County is good, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation, and there were sixty percent of the meat in this bowl, not just us, everyone, even the soldiers." Li Jing munched on the steamed buns stained with soup and praised.

"Jian Zhi's name as a culinary master is really true, even this big pot of rice is so delicious, by the way, I don't know what kind of meat this is so delicious." Du Ruhui followed and praised.

Li Jiancheng ate another piece and chewed it repeatedly, frowned, and had a guess in his heart, but he didn't speak.

Wei Chi Jingde pulled the small white cube in the bowl that was about to be simmered into a puree, and just wanted to explain, when he saw Li Jiancheng glaring at him, he hurriedly lowered his head and took a big bite of rice and stopped looking up.

At this time, a firehead army came over to redistribute steamed buns to everyone, and Li Er asked, "Does this dish have a name, what kind of meat is the meat?"

The Huotou Jun explained with a smile, "Back to Your Majesty, this dish was invented by Hou Ye, called potato beef stew, and the meat is fresh beef from Lantian Hou. ”

"Potatoes

Beef

Bai Fan, come over to me."

Li Erluo stood up suddenly, shouted angrily, his face instantly turned cold, and the civil and military officials could also hear it clearly, and they stopped the chopsticks in their hands one after another
