Four hundred and ninety years of excitement under the snow
Chang'an is quite busy at the moment, which is a good thing for Zhang Song. Chang'an has stockpiled too much vermicelli, which is not needed in major canteens, although there is no problem with this thing for a year or two, but after all, it is not a matter of putting it away. Now that Liu Zhang has conquered Jizhou, Zhang Song has a feeling of throwing garbage, and quickly disposed of all these things. After all, it is a sense of guilt to break it or throw it away, and Zhang Song was also relieved to see the guys loading this thing into the car.
"Lord Zhang is relieved?" Liu Ye looked at Zhang Song funny, there was still too much food to worry about? It's good that the rice didn't go bad, otherwise things would have been worse. The transportation capacity is strong, a large number of melons and fruits are enough to cover a meal, and the addition of oil greatly reduces the consumption of food.
Zhang Song was obviously relieved: "The surrounding alien races are all beaten by the lord, and now they are all working for us, and there is no need to sell them potatoes at all." The situation there is unstable, and the merchants still can't go. Wouldn't it be a sin to spoil so many things? I think that a few years ago, there was a great drought here in Chang'an, and the people fled one after another, wasn't it because they didn't have anything to eat? "It was only in that famine era that people knew the preciousness of food.
What Liu Zhang can do is to teach the method of high grain yield as much as possible, and solve the most difficult link in social relations through various means. As long as there is no shortage of food, everything will be easier. Liu Zhang can also try his best to use his own means, no matter what he does, he has confidence.
Liu Ye couldn't help but say happily: "Who would have thought that the lord would be so good at fighting? When I heard that the lord dared to lead troops to Xiliang, thousands of miles away, when he was so young, I was surprised for a long time. In this way, the lord's vision is also very good, of course, the lord's method of dealing with foreign races is really ......, "This kind of determination to beat the alien race to death in one breath, and finally in the merger of Hao, it is terrible to not drag the mud and water."
It's not reasonable at all, it's either follow or die. It is terrible to be so decisive, and Liu Zhang alone does not need other people's advice at all. It is no exaggeration to say that Liu Zhang is really ruthless in his treatment of foreign races. That kind of attitude when fighting is completely two behaviors when fighting Cao Cao and Liu Bei, when facing a foreign race, I can't wait to kill them all, and only keep women and cowards.
"Haha, the old lord Yingming I chose a good place, and he did a lot of things, but he made a mistake in choosing his heirs. If the old lord had reused the lord a little more than being a hostage, I'm afraid Yizhou would have risen long ago. It can be seen that the lord understood his situation before, and this hand is very clumsy? Zhang Song seemed to think of Liu Zhang's stupidity in the past, which made him feel that the facts were unpredictable.
The two of them talked about the past while watching the guys carry the goods. Chang'an is about to celebrate the New Year, and the people here are even busier, Liu Zhang should have come back this year, but now it depends on the situation. However, there is still some time before the Chinese New Year, maybe Liu Zhang can come back.
The small countries in the Western Regions sent a large number of envoys to Chang'an, and they brought a large number of gifts, although in Zhang Song's opinion, they were all ordinary, but after all, they were gifts. For these small countries, Liu Zhang should come out to meet and show the majesty of the Han Dynasty. But Zhang Song thought of Liu Zhang's indecent appearance, this is a bit difficult, right?
Xu Cheng walked out of the warehouse: "Lord Zhang, the businessmen have already prepared, all kinds of materials are already on the car, is there anything else that needs to be passed on to the lord?" Xu Cheng personally escorted the car this time, on the one hand, he took people to the other side, and he also had to bring people back.
Zhang Song thought for a while and said: "Tell the lord that the envoys from the small countries in the Western Regions have come one after another, and if the lord has time, it is best to come back during the New Year." This time escorting the goods is very crucial, Jizhou is not inferior to Jingzhou, you should take it seriously. "When Liu Zhang was not very strong in Jingzhou, he needed so many families to assist. But now Liu Zhang is very strong, and according to the temper of the lord, I am afraid that some of them have played.
Xu Cheng saluted and said: "Xu Cheng understands, ...... to go" With a wave of his hand, the convoy moved slowly. The heavy snow will not dampen the enthusiasm of the merchants here, and the caravan is not very difficult to walk on the main road. The snow has been cleared, but there are no shortcuts after the Tiger Prison.
The heavy snow seems to be earlier than in previous years, and how long the end of the ice age will last, this Liu Zhang does not understand. But fortunately, Liu Zhang has enough cotton clothes, which are enough to cope with the cold weather. It's a pity that there are relatively few convenient steam cars, and it will be much more convenient if there is such a car.
Life in Jizhou is simply too uncomfortable, there is no enjoyment here, and even Liu Zhang, who lives in the house, is very bored. Liu Zhang rubbed his hands and said, "This ghost weather is going to kill people, and it's really uncomfortable to have no plush clothes." "Even if Liu Zhang is a royal family, he still can't change many things.
Zou Fu took the hot water cup and handed it to Liu Zhang: "The general complains about the hard life every day, I don't know how many people envy the general's life?" "Liu Zhang's life is good or not, the people of the whole Han Dynasty will not think that he is doing badly, but in Liu Zhang's mouth, he is really uncomfortable.
Zhen Mi also laughed and said: "Does the general think that the quality of life is not good enough......" Zhen Mi still heard this from Liu Zhang's mouth, and he said every day that his poor life was a quality problem.
The three of them are talking nonsense together, and they are always lazy without the war. When Zheng Du came in from outside, he saw Liu Zhang's drowsy appearance at a glance. I'm afraid that the lord is only more serious when he fights with others and preaches, right?
"The caravan of the lord Chang'an is here, and Xu Cheng has something to see the lord." Ancient men had a little patriarchal concept, and Zheng Du was naturally no exception. But over the years, several women around Liu Zhang seem to be getting more and more powerful, whether it is Wang Yi or Cai Yan, these women's wrists are really a little strong. The two seemingly graceful women around Liu Zhang have different talents, and this eyesight is really impressive.
Liu Zhang got up and wrapped his cloak tightly and said, "Go out and see, has Ziqiao cleaned up the warehouse in Chang'an?" "Vermicelli is not bad, and it can fill your stomach. Pure and natural without any additives......
The people outside the city have been cleaned, and there are large cars parked around the square, and the cars can also be transported more vigorously after they have tires. The people watched from a distance, and a large number of cars entered Ye County this morning, and they didn't need to look to know that there were a lot of supplies inside.
When Liu Zhang arrived, Xu Cheng also came over: "Lord, all the materials for Chang'an have arrived, a total of three hundred carriages. A list was handed to Zheng Du, and Liu Zhang rarely looked at these things.
After glancing around the first carriage, Liu Zhang was very happy: "Make a few pots of dishes with vermicelli and potatoes, add some bones for the people here to taste, and then sell all the vermicelli for a few pennies a pound." "You also need to have samples to sell things, and Liu Zhang just proves that this thing is delicious. After spending some time here, the people also noticed that these soldiers seemed to be different from the previous ones.
First of all, the soldiers did not disturb the people at all, and they did not even come into contact with the people. Secondly, the soldiers had never done anything bad, and the officials had never asked for anything like food. It seems that Liu Zhang's soldiers are not bad, at least much better than Liu Bei's.
With Liu Zhang's order, the subordinates immediately went to prepare. After all, in an era when a stone of corn costs more than 200 yuan, Liu Zhang's sale is still quite cheap. Of course, the main thing is that Liu Zhang has too many of these things, so that Liu Zhang doesn't want to make money at all, just recover some costs.
The big pot stew pays attention to one ingredient to be good, and then pays attention to the stewing time. The bones were simmered in a large pot of five, followed by potatoes, cabbage, and chunks of tofu, and finally vermicelli and other things. Tofu is simple and delicious. This thing was already available in the Western Han Dynasty, and it seemed to be pretty good for Liu Zhang to improve it a little.
After half a day's effort, the air was filled with a strong fragrance, and Liu Zhang immediately asked the soldiers to shout along the way in Yecheng, and let those poor people come out to eat with big bowls. A scent wafted through the air, and Liu Zhang suddenly realized that he was a little hungry. I haven't eaten the big pot of rice for a long time, so Liu Zhang also asked for a bowl to put on the side......
The people soon came out and ran out one by one with the biggest bowl in the house. Without saying much, he directly filled a bowl, and Liu Zhang squatted on the side with a big bowl without any image. Of course, although it was a pot of content, for the soldiers who served the rice, he secretly dug up a lot of meat for Liu Zhang......
Zhang Ren looked at Liu Zhang and seemed to be eating very well, and just at noon, he squatted down on the other side with a bowl. This time Liu Zhang took the lead, and the people saw Liu Zhang sitting here eating, it seemed to be really delicious? After serving them one by one, they also found a corner and squatted down to eat, whether the food in their bowl was delicious or not, Liu Zhang didn't know at all.
But Liu Zhang's must be delicious, and the meat stewed in the big pot is not bad at all. Potatoes are not tired of eating, even if Liu Zhang said that he was tired of eating, but when he ate it in his mouth, this thing was still delicious. The only downside is probably that there is not much meat, but such a bowl is enough to eat.
Liu Zhang started eating, Zhang Ren and the others basically didn't have any requirements compared to Liu Zhang, as long as this thing could be eaten. The generals ate even faster, and went with a big bowl of Haisai. The people saw that these officials were eating so deliciously, so naturally they didn't have so many ideas. A few cauldrons seem to be a lot, but they are only enough for the people here to taste. But after eating, it was easy to say, and Liu Zhang began to sell these grains in large quantities. A few pennies are only enough for a cake, but here you can exchange so many vermicelli and potatoes......
