The dish is simple, three chickens plus a side dish, plus a soup.

The flower chicken is the main dish, the fried bean sprouts on the side are the side dishes, and the lotus root soup stewed with pork thigh bones on the side makes several ministers swallow their saliva.

It's fragrant!

At least they really didn't expect the dishes in Li Hang's house to be so delicious.

Compared with other things that are just boiled, this thing is undoubtedly much more powerful, plus the roasted fragrant flower chicken on the side, looking at the ministers on the side are a little unbearable.

The fragrance on this head wafted out, and when the lotus leaf package was opened, the fragrance diffused in an instant.

"You say it's something for Hanako to eat?" Even Lei Xiao could only smile bitterly, this thing is definitely not for Hanako to eat, and this kind of routine is definitely not something that Hanako can afford.

"This thing is not only the aroma of eating a chicken, but also the rice inside, which is the point, the rice in it not only absorbs the aroma of the muscles, but also the flavor of those spices and spices, and most importantly, at this time, its flavor will all enter the rice."

Li Hang said as he cut the body of the chicken with a knife, and then scooped out the rice grains with a spoon. "This thing is like this, sometimes it seems to be the best chicken, but in fact the best thing is not these, but better things in it, just ask us to make a deal with us, although it seems that they get more benefits, but in fact it is we who really take advantage!"

The Central Plains is an agrarian society, and breeding is only limited to those small animals that are easy to feed, chickens, ducks, dogs, pigs are normal, and cattle and sheep need a lot of grassland, which is not an ordinary family can breed on a large scale.

Only the tribes and villages in the nearby steppes and mountains can be domesticated.

In the past, it is estimated that only a small amount could be domesticated by these villages, but now? As long as you can buy from the grassland on a large scale, then you can say anything, and the money you buy will be repatriated through salt, luxury, and food.

In this way, it is easy to limit the development of the other party.

Without food and salt, how could they possibly develop, even if they had other trading routes, and now they would continue to fight as a threat in the event of any strife, and these nomads would be temporarily suspended for two years.

What a pity!

They won't go on and on.

They will soon fight among themselves, and after the infighting, they will start to ravage everywhere in a frenzy after the beginning of spring.

If they can't plunder the Great Win Dynasty, they can only plunder other countries.

If they don't plunder, they will die.

What is this concept?

It's like saying that if they want to survive, they have to make enemies on all sides, and if they don't, they can't survive, but if they do, they do.

What will happen to them?

If you have a bad relationship with other countries, there will be only one way to either grit your teeth and hold on, or you can take refuge in the Great Winning Dynasty and become a dog of the Great Winning Dynasty from then on.

Li Hang felt that he could think of it, and they could do the same with these ministers.

"We eat chicken now, and the most delicious thing we eat is rice! Looking at the essence through the phenomenon, this is the essence! Li Hang laughed, and then brought a bowl of rice to the emperor.

Several ministers were spitting.

Obviously, Li Hang's hand was far beyond what they thought.

"Li Hang, what do you want to do with those people on the grassland?" Lei Xiao is getting more and more curious.

Glancing at these curious guys, Li Hang glanced at Wang Dali. "Dali, go to my study and bring the big paper pressed on the desk and unfold it for these ministers to see."

This thing is mainly the various statistics of the tribes they visited that Li Hang got from the Su family.

"This is the data that the Su family exported outside the border in a year, and I think you should be able to get these data, and there will be more. According to what was said above, the Su family occupies about sixty percent of the share, that is, most of all the transactions are in their control, and all the transactions in this control can actually reflect a practical problem, that is, the total amount of trade that these guys on the grassland can take out after ensuring their own livelihood, and this can also indirectly show the needs of their nobles. As he spoke, Li Hang pointed to the types of commodities and trading volumes in front of him.

"After satisfying the normal needs, such as salt and tea, they buy other crafts and even luxury goods. In the same way, these merchant groups will also buy some wool, sheepskin, cowhide and other things, and then they will also know the number of cattle, sheep and horses in each of their tribes, these merchant groups are the best spies, in fact, these things they know, we can almost calculate their total production! ”

Li Hang laughed when he said this.

If it were to be changed to the future generations, it is estimated that this kind of thing is confidential, but in the grassland, this single mode of life and production, coupled with the almost completely unguarded commercial trade, makes it easy for them to leak their own problems in business, and it is also easy to leak some of their data.

Through these data, Li Hang can almost understand a general idea of those big tribes.

Even the data of these cattle, sheep and horses is enough.

"How much a tribe can produce in a year, this can be calculated, and when our trade starts to increase, we can know how much the other party can trade with and how much demand there is every year, so what do you think they will do?" Li Hang looked at Emperor Ying Wu with a very treacherous expression.

This kind of thing should be completely impossible in their minds, but because of the impracticality of this kind of thinking, for the time being, these investigations are conducted against them, which is much more effective than the detailed work in the army.

"Every time I can guarantee the freshness of the transaction, that I can squeeze their money out of something new, and only let them keep their own survival, let them spend their money in my hands, and their reduced purchasing power can be converted into how much money or how much food, these can be calculated, everyone, you don't need me to remind you what it means!"

What does this mean? This means that the Great Winning Dynasty can know their situation at any time, at any time they can know that they have gathered enough food and grass to conquer themselves, at any time they can know their numbers, at any time they can know how many troops they have, and at any time they can know how many men they have.

This is very important for them to judge the situation.

Emperor Win Wu swept Li Hang with a pair of eyes, how did this kid's head grow, and he actually thought of this!
