I said with a solemn face: "It's physical fitness!" When I was training the new army, I found that many of them were yellow and thin, and they were obviously malnourished. This is not only limited by how much they eat, but also by how well they eat and whether they are scientific. Now Qianshou basically eats two meals a day, and they are also extremely frugal, and they are reluctant to give their children too good food. ”

"If you just want to let the head of Qianshou eat enough and not rebel, naturally there is no need for the court to publicize. If the children grow up in an environment where they are hungry and full, or if they have enough food but do not know how to arrange their meals reasonably, how can they be physically strong and quick thinking when they grow up? How could Great Qin rely on them to develop and grow? ”

Seeing that everyone was deep in thought, I continued: "So whether Qianshou can eat enough, and then whether he can eat well, is not only related to the life and death of Qianshou, but also related to the future of Daqin and the survival of Sheji!" ”

Everyone suddenly realized, secretly sighed that their pattern was small, and they all arched their hands and said: "Your Majesty is wise, and the ministers are dull!" ”

Without further ado, everyone returned to the county government, where there was no palace, so the local county government could only be temporarily requisitioned.

After everyone sat down, I made arrangements one by one: "Li Xiang, while promoting three meals a day, we should also teach Qianshou to arrange meals reasonably, such as not eating too much in one meal, occasionally matching meat and vegetables, etc., so as to ensure balanced nutrition." ”

Li Si thought for a while, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that it is difficult to achieve this point of meat and vegetarian matching, one meat is more expensive, and Qianshou may not be willing to buy it; Now the meat of the two is only poultry, beasts or game, and there is not so much quantity, which cannot meet the needs of Qianshou. ”

I frowned slightly, that's a question. If you want to talk about the poultry that produces the most meat, it must be pigs, and now Yinglan's Zhongdingge does a better job of making pork, so you don't have to worry about how to eat it. At the beginning, due to the low grain yield, it did not dare to encourage large-scale pig breeding, but now the food conditions can be basically satisfied, and the distribution of water sources in the south of the Yangtze River is relatively dense, but swine fever is a big trouble.

"In this way, you go back and discuss how to promote the raising of pigs, which are the kind of castrated pigs that are used for eating. There are two main considerations, first, how to quickly get enough cubs for Qianshou, and second, where are the suitable places for raising pigs, and food output, climatic conditions, etc. ”

Everyone had eaten Zhong Dingge's braised pork, back pot meat and other pork dishes, and naturally had no doubt about whether the pork could be eaten or not, and hurriedly said: "The ministers obey the order!" ”

"There's one more thing." I remembered the living conditions of Wufu and others, this was the first time I had close contact with the civilians of Daqin, and I found a big problem: "We must improve the hygiene awareness and conditions of Qianshou!" ”

Everyone was a little confused for a while, what is hygiene?

Seeing that everyone was a little puzzled, I explained: "I see that those Qianshou rarely take a bath and wash their hair, let alone change clothes and brush their teeth, and that smell is ......."

Thinking of the smell of the group of people on the mountain, I suddenly frowned again......

It suddenly became clear to everyone that for them, it was already a habit to take a bath for three days and a five-day soup bath, with soaphorn and bath beans to wash the body, and to brush their teeth, they used willow branches or other branches that could be fried to clean with salt water, and strong tea often rinsed their mouths, and the sanitary conditions were acceptable, but how could civilians have these conditions.

Yu He was a little embarrassed and said: "Your Majesty, this is also a helpless thing, Your Majesty sees that the conditions are still acceptable, at least there are clothes to wear, and in some places there are only a few clothes for a family, whoever goes out wears it, how can you talk about this so-called hygienic mind......"

I shook my head, disagreeing with him: "If you want to say that you have no clothes to wear, I can understand it, but if you don't take a shower or wash your hair, it's not because you don't have water, right?" There may be a shortage of water in the north, but there is water everywhere in the south, and the weather is rarely too cold to go down to the river. In the final analysis, Qianshou still doesn't have this awareness! ”

I looked at Bai Chong and ordered, "You ordered Gong to make a few things." One is a toothbrush made of wooden sticks and bristles, which is used to brush teeth. The production is very simple, fix a mane about half the length of your thumb at one end of the stick, the mane can be mixed with horse hair, wool and badger hair, and other hairs are fine, but it should be moderately soft and hard, and at the same time it can brush off the dirt in the mouth, just like this. ”

I even made a gesture and found a piece of paper to draw a rough appearance on it: "The second is that pine resin and poria are dried and pounded into powder, and then sifted out of fine powder, which is called tooth powder." To use with a toothbrush, you can clean your teeth by putting a small spoonful of tooth powder in your mouth, drinking saliva, rinsing it, spitting it out, and then brushing your teeth. ”

"The third is soap. Add freshly submerged water to the ashes, then filter out impurities and boil over high heat. Boil until an egg can float on the water, then add the boiled soy sauce, stir all the time, stir until it can be cooled and formed, pour it into the mold and wait for it to cool is a piece of soap. This thing can not only be used to clean the body, but also to wash clothes. ”

Bai Chong was a little surprised after listening carefully, he could add lard to it? Plant ash can eliminate oil stains, they know, can be used to wash clothes with oil has not heard of. Then he wondered: "Your Majesty, if you bathe and wash your clothes with oil, won't you wash more and more oil?" ”

I didn't bother to explain the chemical reaction, but said, "I accidentally saw it in an ancient book, I don't know if it's useful, you can try it." ”

He added: "You can try the ratio of the ash water and the pig oil of the boiled plants, and what I told you may not be accurate." In addition, the soap used for bathing can be added with some extracted flower juice, which will smell more fragrant and can be called soap. But the cost is too high, so you can figure it out for yourself. Anyway, it will be handed over to the general to sell, and when the time is ripe, the recipe can be announced and let the merchant or Qianshou make it himself. ”

Bai Chong said yes. Li Si listened more carefully, and said: "The matter of raising pigs in this way is imminent, not only can you make that toothbrush, but you also need to use soap." ”

I nodded and said with a smile: "You have a big prejudice against pigs, but it is full of treasures, meat can be eaten, hair can be brushed, manure can be composted, oil can be made into soap or stir-fried vegetables, and even bones can be boiled into soup, don't underestimate it." ”

Everyone thought so, and Bai Chong couldn't help but ask the question that gave me a headache: "In which ancient book did Your Majesty see it?" Can you tell the minister to study it? ”

I stroked my forehead and gave the standard answer: "It's been too long, I don't remember, maybe it's no longer ...... the world."

Two days later, the convoy set off again and headed for Huiji County.

I wanted to stay and see how the road was being repaired, but now it is busy farming, and I can hardly see the people who are building the road, and the road has not yet been built.
