Chapter 182: Radical General
After listening to it at this time, Ma Chao was really shocked in his heart, fortunately Zhen Jiang told the truth today, otherwise he would be really in trouble!
At the same time, Ma Chao also understood why Xu Chu and Dian Wei, these upright palace generals, did not deal with him, it seems that everyone is also prepared for the worst, thinking of the ruthlessness of Xu Chu and Dian Wei, Ma Chao couldn't help but shudder. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Big brothers, I'm really sorry, I did have selfish intentions to join the palace before, but now it's different, I really want to integrate into this big family, I hope all the brothers will give me a chance." After speaking, Ma Chao bowed and saluted, looking very serious.
Don't look at the people of the palace who usually look happy together, but when something really happens, the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is Jia Xu, the first strategist of the palace, hoping that he can give the final decision.
Sure enough, at this time, everyone looked at Jia Xu one by one, only to see Jia Xu leisurely sipping tea, looking at Dian Wei opposite him and saying: "General Dian, do you know how to test the quality of tea and how to taste tea?" ”
Dian Wei and everyone in the palace were all in the same place, I didn't expect Jia Xu to talk about the tea ceremony at this time, is this a little off-topic, but no one dared to come out to ask, just listened seriously....
"Lord Wang once said that the most important thing to distinguish whether it is a good tea is three points: viewing, smelling, and tasting."
"The so-called view means that when looking at the shape of the tea leaves, we should pay special attention to its dryness, good tea must have a low water content, if you use your fingers to identify, then gently pinch that is broken, it belongs to good tea, and if the dry tea rubs against the skin, the skin will have a slight tingling feeling, it can also indicate that the dryness of the tea is good."
"Smell before brewing tea, you can carefully feel the aroma of dry tea when you open the can, you can also grab some tea leaves and put them in the palm of your hand, smell the tea fragrance, the fragrance is good, and the tasteless is bad."
"The last is the taste, the color of the tea soup will vary with the different processing processes, but no matter what the color, the color of good tea is clear and bright, if there is turbidity or dark color, it is not good tea."
"How about coming to Mengqi to try my cup of tea?" After speaking, Jia Xu handed over the teacup in his hand.
Ma Chao was suddenly shocked in his heart, he just knew Jia Xu's identity, and he had been in the palace for so long, it was really the first time to talk to him, Ma Chao was inevitably a little nervous, but he still respectfully took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.
"What, this tea is delicious, isn't it?" Jia Xu then asked.
Ma Chao thought about it and answered truthfully, "Master Jia, this tea has a good color, but the taste is too strong, and I really can't get used to it." ”
Jia Xu immediately laughed when he heard this, you are right, this tea is indeed very strong, this is because I only brewed it once, so it tastes like this.
Although Ma Chao doesn't know much about tea, he also knows that it takes three times to wash tea, and he can only really drink it after three times.
Jia Xu also explained, "The same is true for people, whether they are sincere or not, as long as you watch their deeds, listen to their words, taste their people, and see each other in the future." ”
"Meng Qi, I think you are more selfish, but you are still upright, you can imagine, you are worried about family affairs, and I heard that you, when you were in Xiliang, you were arrogant and unrestrained, but you were frank, and you can be regarded as a person in temperament, as for the character, you are a man who is a good man, although you want to join the palace now, but it is only a cup of tea, only after three wakes up can you taste it, and it depends on your future performance."
In fact, according to Ma Chao's character, as long as he agrees to join, Jia Xu believes that he will definitely keep his promise, but he still compares Ma Chao to making a head tea just to stimulate me and make him work harder.
And Ma Chao's identity is also different from other people who joined the palace, he is the proton of Xiliang, and there is one of the most important characters behind him, that is, Ma Teng, whether Ma Chao's joining represents Ma Teng's thoughts, no one knows, so Jia Xu said so, for the land of Xiliang.
Sure enough, Ma Chao thought about it for a long time, and finally reacted, and immediately joined the palace, so he had to come out with some real skills, not empty words.
Ma Chao thought for a while and said, "Master Jia, I understand, don't worry, how about I give you an explanation as soon as possible about Xiliang?" ”
Jia Xu smiled slightly and said, "Meng Qi welcomes you to join!" ”
"Master Jia, you're welcome, after I convince my father, it's not too late for you to welcome me."
"Okay, even if you say so, then I'll wait for your good news, Meng Qi, don't let me down!"
"I'll make a good pot of tea for you to taste together."
"Don't worry, my lord, I've drunk this pot of tea, and I'll leave a letter to my father when I go back now, and make a final decision." After speaking, Ma Chao didn't stay anymore and left the living room directly.
Seeing the back of Ma Chao leaving, everyone laughed, and since it was Zhou Yu, he came to Jia Xu's side and said: "My lord, your move is really too high, it must not be long before there will be news from Xiliang." ”
Jia Xu shook his head and said: "Actually, this is not a radical general, now that the general trend has been decided, Xiliang has no chance, and it is not as good as returning to the court now." ”
"I believe Ma Chao also knows this, that's why he did this, this kid is really smart."
"Yes, Meng Qi is indeed good, he is righteous, and his ability is not bad, he has such an achievement at a young age, it is indeed rare, and now he has joined the palace again, this time our palace has really increased a lot of strength."
"And the Pang De beside him, who is also a loyal and righteous person, and his kung fu is incomparably good, not under Gan Ning, it can be said that our palace is now a gathering of heroes."
Everyone also reconciled one by one, everyone's hearts were extremely happy, there were so many heroes here, they were really not afraid that they would not be able to do anything big.
"Okay, it's almost time, let's get together and have a good meal, otherwise it will be really difficult for everyone to get together again when they go out in a few days."
After listening to Jia Xu's words, everyone's eyes lit up, and they quickly understood what the other party meant, it seemed that there was going to be a task, and everyone was excited.
"Master Jia, what the hell is going on, can you ventilate us first?"
"Yes, Lord Jia, what kind of good thing is this time, it's so difficult that you want to start a war with Yuan Men?" And all the people made peace one by one.
Jia Xu saw everyone's excitement, and he didn't want to hide it, so he said it truthfully.....
"After talking with Lord Cao and Fengxiao in the past few days, I have decided to do something to Yuan Men from today on!"
"Wow, it's really a war with Yuanmen, my lord, who are these palaces going to send? And our opponent is Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu? Liu Yexun asked.
Jia Xu glanced at Liu Ye and explained: "The war I am talking about is not a frontal conflict, but the destruction of the other party economically, and then we will implement the following policies in Chenliu." ”
"First, open up Chenliu and welcome more outsiders to invest in Chenliu."
"Second, to reduce taxes, we want to make Chenliu a city with the least tax in the world."
"Third, guaranteed loans are allowed, as long as there is a person who stays behind as a guarantee, you can get a start-up capital for doing business free of charge."
"Fourth, expand Chenliu, although the population of Chenliu has reached one million now, it is far from the limit, this time they Cao Cao decided to make Chenliu the largest and most prosperous place in the world."
"Everyone is prepared, and the next step will be very busy."
After everyone listened, they didn't say anything more, and thought about it one by one, everyone wanted to understand Cao Cao's intention to do this?
It didn't take long for Zhou Yu to react first, and he said with a smile: "Master Jia, you are forcing Yuan Men to make a move!" Looks like there's a good show to watch this time! ”
As soon as Zhou Yu's words were finished, Liu Ye, Kuai Yue, Guo Tu and others also understood.
"Lord Jia, this plan is really good, Yizhou and Yangzhou will definitely have civil strife." Kuai Yue said.
"Yes, Lord Jia, this time Yuan Men is really dead!" Liu Ye ordered and agreed.
………..
Originally, in order to control the population problem and development, the Chenliu side implemented semi-closed management, that is, except for the people of Chenliu, the people of other households who did not have a record in Chenliu were not allowed to enter Chenliu.
In this way, the development of Chenliu is very smooth, but now after the opening of Chenliu, no matter what kind of personnel they are, they can enter Chenliu without registration.
In this way, the security of Chenliu will be greatly challenged, and the population will explode all of a sudden, and Chenliu's economy will also be greatly impacted.
In this way, Chen Liu will also absorb a large amount of cheap labor, which plays a very important role in the development of Chen Liu.
At the same time, the young labor force in Yizhou and Yangzhou will also migrate to Chenliu, making Yizhou and Yangzhou even more depressed.
The second point is to reduce taxes, the original tax is not very high, and now it is reduced, for businessmen, this is definitely a big opportunity, they come to Chen Liulai to do business, it is really a million profits, and Chen Liu's environment is good, and there are all kinds of opportunities, so everyone will grasp this opportunity, which allows Chen Liu's ability to absorb more businessmen in Yizhou and Yangzhou.
For those who don't have a lot of money on hand, Chen Liu is also ready, that is, the third loan, as long as Chen Liu's people help you carry the treasure, then everything is no longer a problem.
In addition, the expansion of Chen Liu, so that there will be a large number of work bases in Chen Liu, and I am not afraid of personnel being idle and what will happen.
Based on the above four points, whether it is a young labor force or a businessman, they have all been absorbed into Chenliu, and Yangzhou and Yizhou are basically only left with old and young people, the economy will plummet, and the source of troops will also be impacted, which is impossible for Yuanmen to bear, so Yuanmen can only launch an attack on Chenliu as soon as possible.
This is also what Chen Liu wants to see, the current Chen Liu can be said to be strong and strong, and he is very well prepared, and he can send troops to attack Yuan Men at any time, but the general attacker will be a little passive, so Jia Xu and others chose to force Yuan Men to do it, and they took advantage of it.
After everyone figured it out, they secretly sighed at the poison of this plan one by one, so that Yuan Men really had no chance at all.
"Master Jia, we know, don't worry, after we go back, we will definitely step up our preparations and dare to get greater benefits in it." Zhou Yu said on behalf of others for the first time.
Everyone also nodded unconsciously, this time they can make a lot of money again, and the palace will not miss such a thing.
"Even if you're so happy, then I'll prepare some food for everyone, how about everyone chatting while eating?" Zhang Hu also stood up and said.
Of course, everyone had no problem, and at the same time, they also ordered their favorite food.
"I heard that you have learned a new dish from Lord Wang, why don't you show us your hand now and let us have a look?"
Zhang Hu was stunned when he heard this, he did learn a new dish from Wang Sen, but not long after he finished learning, everyone knew that there was really no privacy in this palace!
Zhang Hu nodded, so he had to agree, "Okay, today I'll let you taste my newly learned dish, Su cuisine." Then Zhang Hu went down and got ready......
As we all know, Zhejiang cuisine is based on the above four schools, as a whole, there are more obvious characteristic styles, and have four common characteristics: exquisite selection of materials, unique cooking, pay attention to the original taste, and fine production.
Pay attention to the selection of materials
Raw materials pay attention to varieties and seasons, in order to fully reflect the tender and crisp texture of raw materials, the use of seafood, fruits and vegetables, all to the season, the use of poultry, livestock, are to specialty, fully embodies the Zhejiang cuisine selection of fresh and fresh materials, pay attention to the parts of the materials, follow the "four times of the order" principle of material selection.

Cooking is unique
Zhejiang cuisine is famous for its rich and colorful cooking techniques, among which it is good at 6 categories: stir-frying, frying, stewing, boiling, steaming, and burning. "The method of cooking, the heaviest heat", there are more than 30 types of cooking methods commonly used in Zhejiang cuisine, depending on the material, pay attention to the coordination of the main ingredients, and the taste is full of changes.
In addition, Zhejiang's master cooking seafood river rarely has its own uniqueness, which adapts to the eating habits of the people in the south of the Yangtze River who like to eat light and tender. When cooking fish, mostly through the water treatment procedure, about two-thirds of the fish dishes are cooked in water heat transfer medium, highlighting the characteristics of the fresh and tender taste of the fish, the traditional dish should be the first to recommend Hangzhou's West Lake vinegar fish, the live fish is killed, cooked by boiling water, soft and boiled, without adding any oil, smooth and delicious, the public praises.
