See a table full of dazzling breakfasts. Even the well-informed Peng Jingrong was dazzled, how to choose so many types? "Sister Hu has to spend so much money every day?" She couldn't help but ask.

"It doesn't cost much silver, and there is nothing valuable, just eat a fresh, it's not very convenient on the ship to get a few random tricks, and I will officially invite you to eat next time in Hefei." Hu Yimin sat down on the chief and beckoned everyone to take a seat.

"Although we don't use valuable raw materials, they are definitely processed from the materials of the country of origin, and they are authentic craftsmanship, so this alone is worth a lot of money." Liu Ziguang commented that if it is customary to eat some bird's nest sea cucumbers, it is not easy to gather the customs of the whole world on one table.

"It's over, the little girl likes light, they all say that my dining room is better than the imperial dining room, it's really killing me, the emperor is applauding the food, Qiuqi, you have mixed in the imperial dining room, tell the guests what the breakfast recipe of the saint is today." is modest in her mouth, but the actual action is to put on a score, and the one who jumped from the imperial dining room can only be responsible for serving food in her Hu family, what is this not a naked show-off?

"Yes, Long Live Lord's breakfast recipe is mushroom fat chicken, three fresh ducks, five locks of shredded chicken, stewed meat, stewed persimmon, stewed cabbage with sliced meat, braised mutton, mutton stewed spinach tofu, cherry meat yam, donkey meat stewed cabbage, mutton slices Sichuan radish, duck strips and sea cucumbers, duck diced and arrowhead fairy rice, roasted mushrooms, meat slices stewed magnolia slices, lamb shredded stewed running, fried spring rolls, stir-fried meat with yellow leeks, smoked elbow flower tripe, braised tofu, smoked dried shredded vegetables, fried cabbage shredded with pepper oil, dried spices, sacrificial meat slices soup, boiled Celer, boiled white meat." The cook named Qiu Qi fluently reported the emperor's recipe as if he were talking about cross talk and reporting the name of the dish.

Everyone is ashamed, these greasy things that the emperor eats for breakfast, it seems that the life of the shopkeeper is more detailed.

Peng Jingwei, the second young lady who had already snatched a bowl of Fujian Little Chaos in her hand and tasted it, couldn't help but ask when she saw the strange thing in front of Hu Yimin: "Sister Hu, where did you eat breakfast?" ”

"I'm a milk cereal with eggs, an authentic Western breakfast. Do you want to try it? Hu Yimin picked up a white napkin on his knee and wiped his mouth and replied.

"Westerners like to drink milk, huh? It's strange, it's not a doll that hasn't been weaned, isn't this milk the milk of a cow in the field? How to drink? ”

"This is much better than porridge, come on, and serve three bowls of milk."

The three guests are not people who resist new things, they take the milk and taste it slowly, Liu Ziguang has not drunk fresh milk since he came to this world, and now he has found a little bit of the old feeling again, this milk is very fresh, a little bright milk feeling, good.

"It's even better to get some yogurt, which is rich in bifidos and has a higher level of nutrition. Also, Western breakfast can also have bread butter juice, this egg is too old, Westerners don't eat like this, you need sugar eggs. He couldn't help but point his fingers, showing off his knowledge.

"Oh? Has Premier Liu been to the West? Hu Yimin was silent, in fact, he was very surprised, he actually knew that authentic Western food, these miscellaneous studies can not be learned from books, this person really can't see through.

"I haven't been there, there are a few Westerners in my death camp, and they like to drink milk and eat candy eggs."

"I see...."Hu Yimin nodded, almost forgetting that this Premier Liu was still a general with troops.

"At the beginning of the year, I don't know if Premier Liu participated in the battle under the city?" Hu Yimin only tasted the Western food in front of her, and after a few bites, she said that she was full, and the maid behind her hurriedly brought a silver basin to wash her hands.

"Of course I participated, all three of us participated, my sister and I followed the death camp in the Qing army camp to kill seven in and seven out, Vice General Liu waved his knife in front of the road, with two chopping knives dancing like a splash of wind, those Qing country chain horses touched and died, stained and died. My sister and I saw it with our own eyes. ”

"Ah, you are all here, I heard that the blood flows like a river, and then it freezes, and it is difficult to move an inch outside the city of Liguo, is it so miserable?" Hu Yimin asked.

"Yes, yes, the dead bodies are piled up, and the wild dogs nearby are eating with round stomachs, of course, they eat the meat of the Tartars, and you also know the steam crossbows of our iron factory, which is a hundred crossbows, and 100,000 arrows are sent in a day, and the 100,000 Tartar army can be spread out by one person, as well as the steam cannon and ironclad chariot invented by my father, which is a big killer that has never appeared, the cannon can hit ten miles away, the chariot knife can not be broken, the arrow cannot be pierced, the Qing Tartars saw it from afar, and only hated that the father and mother had two legs, let's take advantage of the victory to pursue, Vice General Liu took the lead and chased the Qing Emperor to lose even his boots. Peng Jingwei's eyebrows fluttered.

Ordinary people must be at a loss with excitement when they hear that the big hero who broke the chain of horses and captured the boots of the Qing Emperor is in front of them, but the shopkeeper Hu just let out a soft "oh", and then lowered his head and pondered.

Peng Jingwei, who was waiting for Hu Yimin's shocked admiration, was disappointed, and lowered her head boringly and continued to drink milk. snorted in her heart, Sister Hu didn't know what she was thinking about to make war money.

Sure enough, Hu Yimin, who had pondered for a moment, raised his head and said, "So the great victory in the battle of Liguo mainly relied on the sharp weapons of the iron factory to defend the city, not the battle in the wilderness. It must not be so easy for Yuan Dudu to recover Shandong, and when the Qing State recovers, it will not be possible to make a conclusion about who will die. ”

It's not easy for this girl to have such a clear mind, and a banker who knows so much about war and the international situation.

How do ordinary people know the benefits and disadvantages of the Qing army, if it weren't for the fire support on the head of the city, Liu Ziguang would not be able to defeat the 100,000 army even if he was ten times braver, if it weren't for the help of the super weapons such as steam crossbows, steam cannons, and ironclad chariots, only relying on the Ming Dynasty forbidden army that arrived later, it would be barely possible to defend the city, and the frontal hand-to-hand combat in the field, whether it was infantry or cavalry, I am afraid it was not the opponent of the Qing army. The Ming army was a high-priced purchase of three hippos and Sichuan horses and Yunnan horses, and the cavalry was usually reluctant to ride a horse to lead, and the riding skills were naturally much inferior to the people on horseback; In terms of infantry, the Qing army was all foreign men, with a tall physique, relying on the occupation of the northern provinces rich in products, and the weapons and armor were comparable to those of the Southern Ming. The Ming army was mainly soldiers from the Central Plains and guest troops from the southern provinces, and of course their physique was not as tall as the northerners, and they would definitely not be able to take advantage of hand-to-hand combat.

During the days when I left Liguo, I didn't know what the war was going on, but Hu Yimin happened to come from the north, so I could inquire by the way.

"Hu Da's shopkeeper said that the Qing army's chain horses have a very strong impact, no matter how good the equipment of ordinary infantry cavalry is, no matter how strict the military discipline is, they can't fight against it, only by making use of their strengths and avoiding their weaknesses, and using the iron rain in the sky can they be contained." Liu Ziguang picked up the Biluo Spring Beef offered by the maid and took a sip, it tasted good, better than the taste of drinking it from the little emperor. He smacked his lips, spit out a piece of tea, and continued: "I don't know if the shopkeeper Hu has returned from the north, and what is the latest battle report for everyone. ”

"I went north this time to investigate the war in Shandong, and by the way, to see the possibility of opening a branch in the north. The imperial court wants to use troops in the north, naturally needs a lot of money and silver, and the household department has reached out to our Rishengchang again, although it is the bounden duty of our generation to recover my Ming Dynasty, but since the money has been spent, I hope that every tael of silver will be used on the blade. Speaking of this, Hu Yimin's face darkened.

"When I saw the battlefield in Shandong, I was deeply surprised, the soldiers in front of me had not received their salaries for several months, and even the most important weapons, the arrows used in bed crossbows, were seriously lacking, how could such a battle be won? also thanks to Yuan Du's ability to control the troops, the Liguo Iron Works transported some arrows in time; In such a situation, you can still count several cities, and now the army is stuck in Yanzhou, I don't know how long it can last? ”

"Didn't you say that peace negotiations had begun? Why is there a fight again? Peng Jingrong asked in surprise.

"Sister, don't you know, the Qing Emperor fell ill after returning to Beijing, and the emperor's uncle Dolgon, who had been under house arrest, went out of the mountain again, and led the generals who can fight well Aobai, Sonny and others to reorganize their men and horses to hold Tai'an, the Shandong Plain is suitable for cavalry field battles, if it weren't for the Xuzhou soldiers of Yuan Dudu, I'm afraid they would have to suffer a lot." Hu Yimin is simply a front-line military observer, proficient in politics, military and economics, and is worthy of being the female shopkeeper who was in charge of the first ticket number of the Ming Dynasty at the age of nineteen.

"What's the use of the imperial court raising these officials who are in the position of corpse meal, the Northern Expedition to recover Shandong has become a tool for collecting money in their hands, and the tens of millions of silver collected are just used for the war, but they are so mean, even the salaries and weapons of the Northern Expedition army have to be deducted, so doesn't this chill the soldiers who killed the enemy for the country and shrouded in horse leather!" Peng Jingrong said indignantly.

Peng Jingwei said: "That is, our Ming Dynasty has silver, weapons, and good sons, why can't we fight Beijing for so many years, I think it is these corrupt officials who are harmed." ”

"Every year, so many weapons, armor and arrows are ordered from our iron factory, and I don't know who they are equipped with, and the money owed to us is adulthood, if it weren't for the help of nobles this time, I'm afraid that the million silver owed will not be recovered next year." Peng Jingrong went on to say that the sisters sang and complained.

"Congratulations, it's good to get the silver back, then I'll rest assured, the money I invested in your Liguo Iron Works is charged with interest on an annual basis, last year's interest grace is now, Sister Rong can't cry poor this time." It turned out that a large part of the working capital of the iron factory was Rishengchang's loan, and Hu Yimin's credit work was good, and the loans were all high-quality enterprises.

"This time, Shangshu of the Ministry of War went to the north by boat, probably for the sake of war, and he went to solve some problems with military salaries and weapons." Liu Ziguang couldn't help but interject.

"Premier Liu doesn't know, Cui Chengxiu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Yuan Dudu have always had a gap, the court bigwigs don't know the hardships ahead, they only know that they want to fight, and now that the war is reopened, how many people are counting on the lives of the soldiers in front of them to get promoted and make a fortune, Yuan Dudu can't win quickly, this Cui Shangshu went with Shang Fang's sword, he must be to help, but it's hard to say whether to help Yuan Chonghuan or Dolgon."

Could it be that Yuan Chonghuan can't get rid of the fate of dying unjustly at the hands of his own people in this time and space? Liu Ziguang was stunned.
