Of course, not everything is good for a blind horse.

Because they can't ruminate, blind horses eat more than cows.

From time to time, you have to feed some beans or something, otherwise you will lose weight and get sick.

In the past, it would have been a terrible thing.

But now, the rich and noble man has sat in the world, driven away the landlord's old wealth, gave birth to dolls and reduced agricultural taxes, and most importantly, there are big cakes and sausages to eat.

It's not so unacceptable to give the beast some beans.

Along the way, Li Weiming noticed that the roads were very smooth, although it could be choking on rainy days, but at least on sunny days like now, the carriages walking on these newly built dirt roads are called smooth.

"It's all the roads that the imperial trainers organized everyone to build, let's eat the big cakes of the rich and noble, it's nothing to do some work, and this road is repaired, and the big guys will benefit!"

The big cake that Uncle Li said, like the rich sausage, is a fundamental benefit for all Ming citizens.

This is also a trick that Zhu Fugui learned from "mentoring and friends".

In later generations in the Middle East, autocrats of all stripes often provided their citizens with cheap or free flatbread.

Countries such as Egypt, Syria, and Turkey all have such policies.

For the poor people, as long as they can eat bread every day, life can go on and society can be stable.

Large-scale riots in Egypt and Syria were all caused by problems with the supply of flatbread.

On the contrary, the Turkish lira exchange rate collapsed, the economic index plummeted by 50%, and the unemployment rate soared, but there was no problem with the supply of flatbread, and Ethiopian remained firmly in the Diaoyutai level, and his approval rating rose instead of falling.

With such an excellent policy, Zhu Fugui, as a modest and studious ruler, must of course study actively.

Fa bread or flour, plus the monthly ration of rich sausages, although the amount is not much, but it is enough for all parts of Shenzhou to set up shrines for His Majesty Zhu Fugui.

Flatbread and sausages also have the advantage of being easy to standardize and have a long shelf life.

If it's better to make flour directly, and if you make pork, then there are countless famous halls in it around fat and lean meat, with or without bones.

Too much discretion in the hands of the rationer!

In the case of sausages, there is no such concern.

The sausages are all produced in accordance with a unified recipe and streamlined in the agricultural reclamation base, and each one is very different.

In addition to the two stability maintenance artifacts of Middle Eastern flatbread and Soviet sausage, Zhu Fugui also learned from Cuba's successful experience.

Cuba, a socialist country that hangs on the doorstep of US imperialism, must have unique skills in still being able to stand tall against the backdrop of the backdrop of the lighthouse state's tricks 30 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

In addition to the social system, ideals and beliefs, and free medical care, Zhu Fugui believes that the secret of Cuba lies in maintaining the happiness and satisfaction of the people.

And this secret ingredient is Cuba's unique natural endowment - tobacco and sugar.

Of course, in Daming, these two high-end consumer goods are not as free as bread and sausages.

But the price is also quite cheap.

No, Second Uncle Li, who rarely entered the city, bought a lot of cigars from the Huangying Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and he had already smoked them.

Smoking is certainly not a good thing, but it is obviously much less harmful than the big smoke that was widespread in the early years.

And after all, the imperial court wants to have just the right meal.

Naturally, tobacco and alcohol are monopolized by the imperial government, and private production and trade are not allowed.

Nowadays, cigars have replaced the status of flue-cured tobacco in the Ming Dynasty, and the popularity is actually an accident.

The earliest was in "Miss San Diego", the male protagonist played by Zhu Fugui rode a tall horse, smoked a cigar, and galloped across the endless fields of California, advertising cigars.

In the later popular Aussie Westerns, the Fujian cowboys always smoke cigars and raise ropes to lassoze those white-skinned savages.

These elements have subtly made cigars the mainstream tobacco products in Yinzhou.

This trend naturally spread from Yinzhou to Tianjin and Jinling, and from Tianjin and Jinling, radiating to the entire Shenzhou.

It's certainly not right to promote tobacco in movies.

But it was still the 1870s, and Zhu Fugui felt that there was nothing to blame.

Although he himself never smokes, the movie uses props.

Of course, smoking is still prohibited in public places, and personal entertainment cannot affect others, which is the bottom line.

In later generations, Cuban cigars have always been synonymous with luxury, but in reality, there are also many cheap cigars.

Today, the Ming controls the Gulf of Mexico and South America, and has the best tobacco production in the world.

Either Daming himself produced sporadically, or ordered the tributary countries of Central and South America to eradicate grain fields and plant tobacco, and the country's food security was handed over to Daming's father to guarantee.

Today, Daming accounts for 70% of the world's tobacco industry.

As long as you take the low-cost industrial cigar route instead of handmade cigars, you will be able to supply a large number of affordable cigars to the whole country.

Of course, this price is mainly for cigarettes, and the price of cigars is much cheaper than in later generations.

There are still many people who like to smoke paper cigarettes or dry tobacco.

It's just that because of the deviation of the historical background, the flue-cured tobacco family in later generations became dominant, and it has become a situation where cigars are more dominant.

Seeing that the second uncle liked to smoke cigars, Li Weiming took out a few boxes from the mezzanine of his backpack and stuffed them into his jacket.

"What's this?"

Second Uncle Li lowered his head and looked at it, and exclaimed, "Spring dealing? That's a good thing! ”

As with most of the Royal Camp's products, the Fugui brand is the best, and the spring card is slightly secondary.

Chunfa brand cigars, the county's supply and marketing cooperatives may not sell them, you have to go to Anqing's department stores to buy them.

Although Second Uncle Li is from the countryside and has not seen much of the world, he is in his fifties after all.

From Li Weiming's tweed clothes, I guessed that his nephew might be famous outside.

Now that he saw that he was a big cigar with spring hair, he confirmed his guess.

However, Zhuangzi is not worried about eating and drinking now, and Second Uncle Li has no idea of asking his nephew for help, but when he looks back, he must ask what has happened in the past ten years.

Lizhuang is a little far away from the county seat, and by the time the carriage arrived at Zhuangzi, it was already noon.

Zhang Boshan is completely helpless.

The previous joke Ah San may have been a little sloppy.

I saw that there may not be anything else in front of Li Zhuang's house, but the dung heap must be piled high.

If you come earlier, you can still see old people and children picking up dung with bamboo baskets on their backs.

There's no way, it's still the same sentence, the crops are all dependent on dung.

There is no chemical fertilizer in Lizhuang, so he can only rely on farm fertilizer to increase the fertility of the land.

Although there was no shortage of chemical fertilizers in the Ming Dynasty, they were mainly supplied to the larger agricultural reclamation corps and large-scale farms in various prefectures.

Scattered fields like this are themselves for the common people to grow and play.
