Chapter 129: The Value of Locusts (Part II)
Asthma is hereditary, and if both parents have asthma, the chance of passing it on to their children is as high as 80 percent, and even if only one parent has asthma, then there is a 30 to 50 percent chance that it will be passed on to the child. 一秒記住【千千小說w w w.x q q x o m】,為您提供精彩說閱讀。
Gao Ming felt that he was very lucky, because Empress Changsun was an asthma patient, but Gao Ming did not feel any discomfort, which showed that Empress Changsun did not inherit this difficult disease to him.
However, Li Lizhen and Li Mingda are not so lucky, both suffer from mild asthma, and both have symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough at the onset of the disease, and most of them attack at night or early in the morning, according to Gao Ming's guess, the symptoms of the two should be bronchial asthma.
And there is no effective treatment for this disease in Datang, and even the imperial doctors in the palace only take the method of recuperation.
To put it bluntly, it is to let Li Mingda and Li Lizhi take some medicine to nourish their bodies, and then let them use their own resistance and asthma to resist, of course, it is best to resist it, if they can't resist it, there is no way.
Empress Changsun carried it for thirty-five years, but in the end she didn't carry it, and Li Lizhen and Li Mingda in history didn't carry it either.
However, after the appearance of Gao Ming, Li Lizhi and Li Mingda no longer took those "golden pills" composed entirely of heavy metals, so their bodies naturally got better, their resistance increased, and the possibility of holding asthma naturally increased.
Li Shimin knows very well that since Li Mingda went to the East Palace to eat and live with Gao Ming, his physical condition is obviously much better than before, so even if many people say to Li Shimin that this is not etiquette, Li Shimin will block Li Mingda on the grounds that he is young.
After all, in Li Shimin's opinion, compared with the so-called "etiquette", it is more important to be his daughter, if it weren't for the fact that Li Lizhen had married into the eldest grandson's family, Li Shimin wanted her to go to the East Palace to learn how to regulate her body from Gao Ming.
Li Shimin cared about his daughter, and the eldest grandson Wuji naturally cared about his niece, so when the two heard Gao Ming say that this locust could cure qi diseases, their joy suddenly overflowed.
Especially the eldest grandson Wuji, in the court, he couldn't help but ask Gao Ming about the practice of locusts, of course Gao Ming would not hide his secrets, and patiently and meticulously told him about the practice of fried locusts.
"First of all, the locusts must be fresh, after getting the locusts, first scald them with boiling water for two minutes, then pinch the head and tail, remove the contents of the belly, wash them and then put them in the oil pan to fry ......."
With Gao Ming's narration, the look on the face of the eldest grandson Wuji also became serious, and it could be seen that he was very attentive to remember, and not only the eldest grandson Wuji, but almost all the ministers in the court pricked up their ears, and they were seriously learning how to cook this delicious fried locust. Remember [Qianqian w w.x q q x o m] in one second, and provide you with wonderful reading.
In addition to boiling and roasting, the food of Datang is not bad, but if you eat too much, you will always want to change the taste, and the appearance of fried locusts can be said to enrich everyone's table, and some people have already thought of using it for wine at this time.
And according to Gao Ming's statement just now, eating this thing is good for the body, as the so-called disease cures, no disease strengthens the body, and the most important thing is that locusts are so easy to find, basically you don't need to spend any money, just go out of the city to catch them!
So, in an instant, the entire court hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone was concentrating on memorizing the clever words.
“…… When you see that the color of the locusts in the oil pot has become yellow and clear, you can take it out, and then sprinkle some salt to eat, but if you want to take it into medicine, you can't fry it, boil the live worm in boiling water for two or three minutes, and wait until it changes color, take it out and deal with it and then dry and grind it into powder, and then take it with water every day. ”
When Gao Ming's words fell, Eldest Sun Wuji suddenly bowed to him with a serious face.
"Thank you to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for the prescription, I don't know how much this locust should eat every day after grinding it into powder?"
Looking at the eldest grandson Wuji with a serious face, Gao Ming suddenly smiled and waved his hand.
"Lizhi is also my sister, the eldest grandson doesn't need to be too polite, as for the locust powder, I said before, the sick are cured, and the disease-free are strengthened, so feel free."
Gao Ming's meaning is very simple, if you have it, eat more, if you don't, eat less, and do it yourself.
The court was full of smart people, so everyone immediately understood the meaning of Gao Ming, and everyone's minds suddenly began to liven up.
Datang is not like later generations, there are people who specialize in breeding locusts, in Datang, either locusts are overwhelming when the locust plague is discovered, or there is no locust plague, and if you want to find locusts, you can only go to the rice fields to catch them.
Everyone understands this, so after the next dynasty, many officials sent their families to catch locusts outside the city, and when they received the news of the return from the family, they were completely dumbfounded.
"What? No more locusts? ”
The dumbfounded people also include the eldest grandson Wuji, who was ready to ask for locusts to be used in medicine to treat his daughter-in-law, and now that he heard that there were no locusts, he immediately became anxious.
"There are hundreds of acres of land outside the city, how can there be no locusts? Are you not looking for it with your heart? ”
Faced with the suspicion of the master's family, the servant suddenly showed a look of grievance.
"The master blames me wrongly, there are really no locusts in the field, when the villain went, he also saw many people rummaging in the field, but they found nothing, only the people and the roadside to sell, ten for a penny, so the villain ran back to ask the master."
Hearing him say this, Eldest Sun Wuji immediately burst out laughing.
"Haha, I see, ten pennies are ten pennies, this is consistent money, go buy 10,000 and come back!"
"Yes!"
The servant took the money and ran away, and after his figure disappeared outside the door, the eldest grandson Wuji shook his head with emotion.
"I didn't expect that locusts can be sold for money like chickens and ducks now, it's really changeable!"
When the eldest grandson Wuji was full of emotion, the people outside Chang'an City laughed.
Their hard work all night last night was not in vain, and before noon, many people came to look for locusts, and if they couldn't find them, they bought them, and they didn't have a bargain for a penny.
And as long as there are live locusts, there are as many as they want, and the least of them has earned dozens of dollars, and now some people in the local area have made up this matter into a nursery rhyme and sung it.
"The locusts in the field have pointed legs, and if you catch ten, it is money."
It can be seen that the locust trade in Chang'an is now very hot.
There is no advertisement in Datang, and the reason why the locust trade in Chang'an City is so popular is completely in response to those four words - upward and downward effect!
The emperor is the example of the hundred officials, and the hundred officials are the example of the people, the emperor and the hundred officials have begun to eat fried locusts, of course the people will try it, and the fried locusts themselves are very delicious, so it is not surprising that it is so popular now.
In just a few days, due to the rush of officials and large households, the price of locusts, which was originally ten locusts per penny, has once again increased in price, and it has become fifteen locusts for two pennies, an increase of as much as 50 percent!
What's more, this price may rise again over time.
Many businessmen also smelled the business opportunity, they prepared their bags, prepared their carriages and horses, and then went to the states and counties around Chang'an to buy locusts, ready to take them to Chang'an to sell.
Some people have begun to sell fried locusts in the liquor shops in Chang'an City, ten on a plate, priced at two cents, and they don't make much money, but fortunately, they make small profits and quick turnover.
Those who are ready to use locusts in medicine have already sent their families to farther states and counties, and anyway, when the time comes, they can only make locust powder and bring it back, and there is no need for live locusts.
In just a few days, the locusts have vaguely taken shape in the industrial chain.
But these are not Gao Ming's concerns, and now he is busy teaching Li Mingda to exercise.
"Little son, you have a good look, you can do what the eldest brother does, do you know?"
"Got it!"
The little girl has always been so well-behaved, Gao Ming suddenly showed a satisfied smile.
"Okay, then here we go, the eighth generation of radio gymnastics - the times are calling, start, hey, hey, hey, hey...... Section 1, Stretching, 1234, 2234......"
That's right, at this time, Gao Ming is teaching Li Mingda radio gymnastics, because Gao Ming feels that it is particularly suitable for children like Li Mingda to use this exercise, otherwise my country's education department would not list this as a national broadcast gymnastics for primary and secondary school students.
This set of broadcast gymnastics can be said to have accompanied Gao Ming's academic career for several years, and it is naturally very familiar to do, even Su Wan'er and others next to him are amazed.
"Hey, I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to know how to do kung fu, but it seems that this set of kung fu doesn't seem to have any attack power......"
Before Su Wan'er and the others finished discussing, Gao Ming stopped moving, and then beckoned to them.
"You guys also come over and do it together, in the future, this set of broadcast gymnastics will be a must-do sport in our East Palace, regardless of men, women and children, all of them must be able to do it, and they must gather together to do it together, this is the rule I have set, Shi Jian, this matter will be handed over to you."
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince!"
The squire who received the task suddenly became energetic, and the squire showed a puzzled face.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what is radio gymnastics?"
"Uh...... Uh......"
The waiter's question was really to the point, but unfortunately Gao Ming couldn't explain it, and "uh" couldn't come up with a reason for "uh" for a long time, so Gao Ming suddenly became angry and slapped her buttocks.
"As far as you talk a lot, I said that if you call it radio gymnastics, it will be called radio gymnastics, and if you dare to be verbose, you will be dragged into the house immediately and snap 1
“……”
As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, the waiter suddenly blushed and stopped talking, and Su Wan'er didn't dare to say anything more, and the two of them lowered their heads red.
Looking at this scene, Gao Ming nodded with satisfaction, and then continued to teach them to do radio gymnastics.
"Here is the second section, chest expansion exercises, one-two-three-four, two-two-three-four, two-two-three-four......"
