Li Chen thought wildly, when did that habit of keeping boots start? Is there a gap with the legacy of the Tang Dynasty? Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info to say that there is something to do, it is probably difficult to get involved, after all, Chinese say to stay in the step, it is impossible to keep your step, just keep your boots.

Moreover, the Chinese do not have the custom of holding people smelly feet, and in history, in the Tang Dynasty, there was such a guy. Quilted strains.

Of course, it's not because as a Han Chinese, or an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, he gave the grassland khan a stinky foot quilt. It was because he had defected to the enemy.

It happened in the Wu Zhou Dynasty, and at that time, the protagonist of the matter was surnamed Yan. At that time, the Turkic Ashna, because of the Khitan rebellion, helped the Tang Dynasty to quell the rebellion, and grew a lot.

The steppe peoples are like this, anyway, if you become strong today and annex other tribes, it will be easy to grow. Tomorrow it will decline, and the tribe will be annexed by someone else. The same people, today they are Khitans, tomorrow they are Turks, and the day after tomorrow they will become Uighurs again.

Ashina grew stronger, and because of his merits, Wu Zetian sent someone to canonize him. The main envoy is surnamed Yan De, and the deputy envoy is surnamed Tian. Ashina arranged Turkic songs and dances to welcome them, and this surnamed Yan De didn't know if it was to please or like, so he danced along.

Then, you don't have to worry about jumping, after jumping, he actually learned from those barbarians, and also went to hold Ashina's boots, which made Ashna very happy. His deputy envoy is unwilling to be like him, he has no face and no skin, and insisting is to give up his hands.

After that, entering the canonization stage, Ashina was very ambitious, and asked for a lot of things from the Wu Zhou Dynasty, to make peace with the Tang family, and to have a daughter to marry a disciple of the Wu Zhou Dynasty. asked for a lot of food, ironware, silk, etc., if these were acceptable to Wu Zhou, it would be difficult for people to agree to the following conditions.

He wants to be Wu Zhou's godson, and he even wants land, which is those who live in a lot of Hu people. This made Wu Zhou unacceptable, and the mission quickly sent the message back, but of course it was rejected.

Then the deputy envoy surnamed Tian, because Ashna was very upset with him, took the opportunity to attack, was whipped not to mention, and was almost killed because of it. Fortunately, in the end, he was dissuaded, and Deputy Envoy Tian used his skills to persuade Ashna to release the mission.

Later, the delegation returned to the court, and the court discussed the attitude towards the Turks. The spineless envoy Yan Zheng said that the Turks were sincere and friendly, but Deputy Envoy Tian objected, thinking that Ashina would be opposed and that the border defense should be strengthened.

And the Wu Zhou Dynasty was rectified because of it. The generals suffered a lot of losses, their strength was insufficient, and they did not want to start a war with the Turks. The surname Yan De's opinion prevailed. The court promised to make peace and gave a lot of money. Send Yan Zheng to reward him.

As a result, Ashina's heart was expected by Deputy Tian's envoy and received the reward, Ashina turned his face, under the pretext that he was not a clan, and turned his face on the spot, captured Dingzhou and Zhaozhou, surrounded Xiangzhou, and pointed directly at Luoyang.

The spineless Yan Zheng envoy, he surrendered on the spot, probably because of his good sycophancy, and he was also named "Han Khan".

In the end, of course, he didn't end well. The Turks were no longer the same Turks as they were at the beginning, and later, seeing that Wu Zhou gathered troops to counterattack, Ashna retreated on his own. And this Han Khan, abandoned by the Turks, was pressed back to Luoyang by Di Renjie, Wu Zetian hated him to death, ordered to be executed, divided his five horses, and was still angry, all three clans were killed, and finally only a few young sons of seven or eight years old remained, and they were spared under the intercession of a group of ministers.

Therefore, the Han people should not have the habit of holding their feet. However, many people are not praised in the form, but they are praised in words, and they are also gained.

Well, let's not talk about that. Li Chen finally finished being held by someone, returned to the palace, and celebrated the festival with his family, enjoying himself. He accompanied the children to play various games, snowball fights, build snowmen, and when a few concubines played mahjong, he had bad ideas on the side, which caused Xiaohong to lose money all the time, and he helped Xiaohong to lose money, peeked at other family cards, and was driven away by others.

'Give everyone a good meal. Today, Li Chen personally cooked and prepared a big meal for everyone. Originally, the Chao family and the Zheng family objected, but Li Chen said that the gentleman was far away from the kitchen in order to raise benevolence. And today's feast, he doesn't use a knife or kill, so he can do it, and it doesn't conflict with Junzi Yuan's cooking, and the two of them can only oppose it by Li Chen's temperament.

"Dangdang" "So fast? Li Chen didn't take long to finish, bringing a few bowls of soup cakes to the table, as well as some vegetables and meat. Three dizziness and two vegetarians, a large bowl of soup cakes per person, was completed in a quarter of an hour, which surprised the others for a while.

'Delicious. Su Xiaoxiao looked disgusted, and didn't think that Li Chen could do it, but in order to cheer up, he still ate a little and thought it was not bad. And a few children praised Li Chen's craftsmanship and patted their father on the back.

'Why can you do it so quickly?' Yang Er asked while eating, Li Chen's dining table, there was no habit of eating without speaking, he felt that this was more lively, eating without speaking, it was too serious.

Doesn't it say that you don't kill? How can there be meat? These dishes are simple, when Li Chen picked the dishes just now, several wives and concubines went to help, and they really didn't see any meat, no chickens, ducks, fish and the like, how did this meat come from? Besides, after so many years of marriage, don't you know Li Chen? It's okay to beat people and kill people, but if you want him to kill chickens and fish, it's difficult, and you can't get these things in just a quarter of an hour.

'I know, I know. A boy raised his hand, he was Li Zi, Li Chen's third son, who had a quick reaction and was smart since he was a child, "This is canned food, canned food can be so fast, and there is no need to kill." ’

That's right, smart boy. The mystery was revealed, Li Chen just got some canned food, no wonder he didn't kill, and he got it quickly, but the smart kid didn't get the reward, but Li Chen grabbed it, ravaged it well, rounded his little face, stretched it out, struggled like Su Xiaoxiao begging for help, was snatched back by the distressed Su Xiaoxiao, and glared at Li Chen.

It's weird, too. This is Li Chen's eldest daughter, who has been silent since she was a child, but she has always liked to observe things, and she said in a word, Li Chen has not only prepared canned food to tease them today.

Yes, that's weird too. Yang Er's words with his daughter, Li Chen wanted to make soup cakes, and it wasn't so fast, counting the time just now, it was enough to prepare those dishes. Meat is canned, but what about soup cakes?

Today's noodles have a different taste than before, and they are still very fine. It takes a lot of effort to prepare, but Li Chen doesn't have so much time.

'Okay, answer time. Seeing that the eldest daughter glared at him, he stopped selling it. He knew that if he didn't say it, the daughter would stare at him until he said it.

First of all, this one. Li Chen went to the kitchen first and took out two things, both of which were metal boxes, but one was square and the other was round, and the appearance was gray and white.

, Li Chen identified it a little, and first opened the square one, which was a piece of crispy stuff, "This is instant noodles." ''Square faces?'' Xiaohong picked up a piece and asked, "It's not square noodles, it's instant noodles." Li Chen corrected.

That's right, this is the instant noodles of the future. Nowadays, the number of Datang noodle foods is gradually increasing, and Li Chen "invented" instant noodles in later generations.

This is to boil the noodles first, adjust the flavor and then fry them. This will last a long time. When you want to eat, boil it in hot water and you can eat it. Instant noodles can be stored for a long time, and they are also a very convenient food. If you suspect that without preservatives, it is impossible to keep it for a long time, then you are wrong.

Boiled and fried, because the water is removed, it can be stored for a long time, the conditions were not available before, but now there are conditions, Li Chen made this kind of noodles, on the one hand, it is a supplement to military food, on the other hand, it is also to increase a commodity, and it is also a diversification of the food of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

'What about this?' Can? Chao Shi looked at another round jar, Li Chen took out a strange utensil, they had never seen before, slowly pried open the top of the round jar, just now he opened the square jar, it was this, and now he took it out, and then in the eldest daughter's eager gaze, handed it to her to research.

'This is a can opener, which is used to open cans. Inside the round can, there are pieces of well-conditioned meat. That's right, this is the kind of canned food in later generations, and the metal used to make canned food is the kind of tinplate we are familiar with.

Tinplate, that is, tin plated on the metal surface, Datang has long had this technology, but it was used by Li Chen to cast money, and now it is returning to its original use, rust-proof.

Iron galvanizing, is anti-rust, in fact, there is a time limit, Li Chen will change the currency system to gold, silver and copper three-level, mainly because of copper plating and zinc technology, on the surface can not be seen, but in fact, after a long time, the surface layer falls off, and the iron sheet inside will be exposed.

In order not to damage the credibility of the imperial court, Li Chen will take advantage of the fact that this layer of skin has not been peeled off and exchange it for new money as soon as possible. As long as the flaws are not exposed on a large scale, the prestige of the imperial court will not be damaged. As for those who make counterfeit money, don't worry about it, anyway, normal people, no one will be idle to melt the money and see what kind of material the money is minted.

In this era, there was not so much developed media, which would widely publicize the words of counterfeit coins, and even, they did not dare to show their faces, be a warrior, and expose the court's lack of virtue. Therefore, a small number of private minters will not affect the imperial court.

Now, if you don't use this technology to make money, and you are not afraid of being known, you can take it out and use it. Tinplate, a good example, is used to make cans, which is much better than clay pots.

These are mechanized products, which are easy to make and easy to eat. Li Chen introduced. Tin cans, the cost is a little lower than clay pots, and because of tin cans, there are instant noodles, otherwise, fried, dehydrated, become very crispy noodles, how to transport? Although it is not very convenient to use tin cans, he can't withstand falling, but he can't think of a better packaging method when he occupies the time.

'What is a mechanized product?' Li Kai asked, he was thinking about this question just now, he understands the machinery, the school teaches it, and the meaning of the product is clear, but he doesn't understand it when he serializes it.

Mechanized products mean that a lot of machinery is used in the production process to minimize manpower. He just talked about it casually and explained it seriously, but in fact, he couldn't say it in too much detail.

This can, seriously, costs much more than a clay pot. For example, the production cost of tinplate is much higher than that of clay pots. It is even necessary to build a tinplate canning factory, which costs much more than a clay pot kiln. Because it requires a lot of machinery, like basic mining from raw materials, as well as iron rolling machines, and so on.

Although the cans in later generations were all tin cans, it was because of the large amount of mining, the production efficiency and cost were lower than that of clay pots, so they could be used in this way. These things are not available in these eras.

However, the convenience of tinplate cans over clay pots is that it won't break. In fact, clay cans often crack during their use over the years. Once broken, it is ruined. If you want to prevent him from breaking, you need to make the clay pot thicker, so that it is more resistant to collisions.

However, if you make it thick, not to mention the cost, it will be troublesome in transportation. With the same meat, there is room for two clay pots, and you can fit three or even four tinplate cans. For military considerations, tinplate is more convenient than clay pots.

Moreover, tinplate cans are also lower than clay pots in terms of fuel usage. The key is disinfection. After repeated experiments, the Royal Canning Farm came to a conclusion that there is no need for high-temperature cooking, in fact, as long as high-temperature sterilization, it can be sterilized.

Li Chen wanted to get a microscope that could see bacteria. He got the microscope out, but the problem was that he found that he couldn't see the bacteria except for magnifying the hair and magnifying some cells. He was born in science and always thought that as long as there was a microscope, he could see bacteria.

In fact, to see bacteria, it takes at least a thousand times more to have a light microscope. Preferably to fifteen hundredfold. Otherwise, in Western countries, it would not have been possible to find the existence of bacteria in the eighteenth century.

Well, the thermometer he at least got out. He experimented with atmospheric pressure, the famous vacuum iron ball experiment, did. But...

It wasn't solved by him, he never thought about how to extract the air from the iron ball, until one day, when he visited the research institute and chatted with Gundam, when he talked about this problem, Gundam solved his problem in one sentence. Fill it with water and the air escapes. This is when he came to his senses, and this experiment was born, and then there was a mercury thermometer.

With mercury thermometers, researchers gradually developed many types of thermometers. This made Datang's industrial strength a big step forward, that is, because of the thermometer, there was a later sterilization experiment.

Although he didn't know about bacteria, Li Chen mentioned that the canning factory also had Li Chen's students. In order to reduce costs, after repeated experiments, it was found that the preservation effect can be achieved without steaming for a long time.

After that, there was a boiler, which further reduced the cost of canning production.
