Chapter 15 Humans and Ghosts Suffer from the Same Disease
After Sun Quan said goodbye to the Yuan brothers and sisters, he rested for half a day, and then devoted himself to making pastries for Yuan Shu. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoStone grinding has a long history, and the specifics cannot be traced. However, in ancient times, the level of the grinding disc was only coarsely milled, and the wheat grains were only broken into five or six petals, and after steaming, it was the wheat rice eaten by ordinary people. When the kitchen of General Zuo's Mansion took the flour and gave it to Sun Quan, Sun Quan couldn't help but marvel, the flour was powdered. The kitchen said that after coarse grinding, it is finely ground and then ground many times to obtain flour, which is not easy to make.
Sun Quan took egg whites mixed with sugar water, steamed them with flour to make cakes, and after three experiments, he succeeded, and then taught the method to the kitchens, and the cooks thanked them. Yuan Yao, Yuan Wei also came to see Sun Quan's production, Yuan Wei saw Sun Quan's production with his heart, and he was also close, and Yuan Yao visited more than Sun Quan after returning home.
More than ten days later, it was nearly June, Sun Quan made ice cream, cakes, lotus seed soup, and sweet tofu brain, and taught the preparation method to the kitchens.
When Sun Quan returned home, he saw that there were many craftsmen, and he went to the north of the city, and grabbed a person and asked.
"General Zuo will rebuild the palace in the north of the city, and now he is building a platform." The man bowed back.
After Sun Quan thanked him, he turned his head away, the corners of his mouth twitched, is Yuan Highway going to build a palace?
After returning home, he didn't sit, he came directly to lie down in front of the collapse, thinking about how to find an excuse to take the Lujiang River in a few months, and then return to Jiangdong from Danyang.
Thinking to no avail, I simply posted a question on the Internet in my head, in the second year of Jian'an, how to go from Shouchun to Lujiang Wancheng, and then turn to Danyang?
After the crossing, Sun Quan's use of cheats is limited to searching, and rarely asks questions, a thing he asks is too detailed, and professionals can't do it all, and most of the respondents don't know a lot, which is of little use to him. The second is that there is a wealth of knowledge on the Internet, and instead of asking questions, it is better to search for them yourself.
After closing his eyes for a while, he felt a little hungry in his belly, so he got up and ordered someone to make some food to eat. After eating, I looked down to check the reply, and I couldn't help but sigh.
There are very few responders, and it is difficult for modern people to think that this kind of ancient geography is annoying. After reading a few replies, there was one that attracted Sun Quan's attention, this sentence he had seen in the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms and was quite impressed.
He was plagued by desolation, and he was short of grain. All armies rise together, there is no plan for the end of the year, hunger is sloppy, full is abandoned, disintegration and displacement, invincible and self-destruction are innumerable. Yuan Shaozhi was in Hebei, and the soldiers ate mulberries. Yuan Shu was in the Jiang and Huai, and was given to Pu Bei. People cannibalize each other, and the state is depressed.
Are you persuading me that troubled times are difficult? Or is it that this late Han Dynasty is full of corpses?
However, Sun Quan was silent, he didn't dare to travel, he was afraid that there would be a ghostly atmosphere in the townships and counties outside Shouchun City, he didn't dare to be angry, he was afraid that Yuan Shu would not be able to return to Jiangdong if he noticed it, so he could only hide in this "prosperous" Shouchun City and pretend to be deaf and dumb, and bake pastries for the evil Yuan Shu, just like a little ghost ...... beside the king of Hades. Sun Quan lowered his hands weakly and muttered to himself.
"Am I still too weak?"
Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, easily afford a population of 50 million, why is there a natural disaster at the end of the Han Dynasty, a yellow scarf, twenty years later, there is not one in a hundred? !
This is a goddamn scourge!
Damn the family!!
Damn thieves!!
Damn princes!!
Damn Yuan Shu!!!
Sun Quan leaned up angrily, drew his sword and slashed at the case, and with a "bang", the book case was split in half.
A person walked in outside the house at this time, but it was Yuan Yao, seeing Sun Quan so angry, he couldn't help but wonder when he was asking, only to see Sun Quan angry at him.
When Sun Quan saw Yuan Yao coming, he remembered that this person was the son of Yuan Shu, and couldn't help but look angrily, and reacted in a moment, Yuan Yao was not Yuan Shu, he was humble and polite, what was it to sprinkle his anger on him, and couldn't help but apologize:
"When I heard some rumors on the way back, I couldn't help but feel angry, and I hoped that Zimin would forgive me and let me tidy up my clothes."
"If you want to go, if you are angry, tell me," Yuan Yao said gently.
"Definitely", Sun Quan instructed his subordinates to change the desk again, and turned to the back room to change clothes.
After a while, Sun Quan walked out, his face was better, and said to Yuan Yao.
"I heard that the Yuan army in Jizhou is short of food, and the sergeants rely on mulberries, and the army is still like this, how can the people live?"
"This....", Yuan Yao was speechless.
"I heard that the Jianghuai is in turmoil, and the people are cannibalistic." Sun Quan said again, questioning.
"Who did Zhongmou listen to?" , Yuan Yao asked in a low voice.
"Everyone in the world knows it, but the Yuan family doesn't know it?" Sun Quan sneered.
Yuan Yao bowed his head and said nothing, straightened his clothes for a moment, saluted Sun Quan, and said:
"Yaowen Zhongmou is in Yangxian, loves the people like a son, divides the land and supports the elderly, everything here is known, and I am ashamed."
Seeing Yuan Yao like this, Sun Quan dissipated most of the anger in his heart, and asked:
"Is there any wine in Zimin's house?"
"Want to drink?" , Yuan Yao was puzzled.
"There is always a bar in General Zuo's mansion, and take two altars," Sun Quan said.
When Yuan Yao heard this, he hurriedly sent someone to the house to get two jars of wine.
Sun Quan instructed Chen Bao to buy some paper. (At the end of the Han Dynasty, the paper was yellow and easy to crack, so bamboo slips were still the main recording tool, although paper was available, it was not widely used)
Sun Quan took a roll of bamboo slips, unfolded it and put it in front of Yuan Yao's case, and gave him the pen
"Zimin is good at writing? and write a memorial to the souls of the dead."
Yuan Yao took the pen, his heart couldn't help but be heavy, and he pondered for a moment before starting to write.
Sun Quan watched from the sidelines, and after a while, Chen Bao returned with paper, and Sun Quan cut it with a sword, round on the outside and square on the inside, like paper money.
(Paper money seems to have come from the Western Regions, and it became popular after the improvement of papermaking in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the people of the Tang and Song dynasties also sacrificed how much paper money)
The two of them were busy with all kinds of things, and after more than an hour, the two of them ended, and it was getting late, and Sun Quan took the sacrificial text.
"Zimin and bring 'paper money', I will go to the courtyard with you to worship, and General Chen Bao will bring a jar of wine"
Yuan Yao asked, looked at the 'paper money', and already understood in his heart, after taking it, he went to the courtyard with Chen Bao and Sun Quan.
Sun Quan ignited the paper money with fire, recited the sacrificial text, Chen Bao sprinkled the wine on the ground, and after reciting, the three of them bowed, Sun Quan turned around and left, and the two also turned back.
After entering the house, Sun Quan and Yuan Yao sat separately, and Sun Quan ordered someone to take the bowl directly, fill it with Yuan Yao, and raise a glass to signal Yuan Yao
"Dry".
Yuan Yao saw that he was in a heavy mood, knew what Sun Quan meant, and raised his glass and said, "Dry."
"Dry"
"Dry"
The two of them drank three bowls in a row, and they drank in a hurry, and they couldn't help but be a little drunk, and the maid presented some fruits, Sun Quan twisted and ate a few, drank two more bowls, and said drunkly:
"Zimin, persuade General Zuo to Tuntian."
Tuntian has a long history, the next chapter will introduce more, a little mention is that Cao Cao's Tuntian, Mintun is not so good, first of all, the tax rate is extremely high, after the tax is collected, the remaining grain of the people of Tuntian can not even meet the rations, so, many of the people of Tuntian escaped, were caught and executed, but even so, the escapees are endless, without him, can not live, so, I don't like to let the protagonist engage in this kind of Mintun, military tun, more common, one side of the army is stationed in the land to grow food, can reduce the cost of transporting grain, after all, in ancient times, It's good to have half of the traffic and vehicles left in the broken traffic and vehicles, pull a car, and send it over, and it's almost consumed on the road
