Many men present looked at this skillful technique and couldn't help but feel cold in their crotches, but there were also many studious people who came forward to watch carefully, nodding and praising from time to time, as if they had gained something deeply.

"There is no basis for the words, is the castrated pig really not fishy?"

Fu Junwu glanced at everyone, pointed to the smoke-filled camp under the mountain and said, "Everyone, it's time for dinner, the chef in the palace has prepared a banquet, please move." ”

......

In the tent, a richly dressed woman wielded a cold kitchen knife in her hand, only listening to the sound of brushing, and a moment later, a cold iceberg was stacked beside her, sitting on top of the phoenix saucer.

Occasionally, a ray of sunlight shines in from the window, reflecting the icebergs.

"Princess, Master Yuwen is so bad that he actually asked you to do these things personally...... These fart people are cooking!" a palace maid-like man came over with a pot of washed cabbage.

"Hmph, that's it!"

The concubine scolded coquettishly, without raising her head, and continued to cut the cabbage with trek, "If he hadn't promised to teach me how to cook with light, this princess wouldn't have come." ”

“......”

"By the way, Xiaohui, help Bengong rub the pig belly over there.

Remember. The kneaded meat must be boiled with boiling water and then cooked with Sichuan peppercorns!"

"Uh, okay. ”

Since getting the Beichen Heavenly Wolf Blade, the concubine has been fooled by the Taishi again, saying that the food is to bring happiness to people.

Now she finally has a new goal in life, which is to make dishes that make everyone feel happy.

Speaking of which, Concubine Xuan is also the most unprofessional princess in history, and all she thinks about is how to eat and what to eat.

And under the bewitchment of Xi Yan, she also worked part-time as an honorary chef in the former Manqing Garden, now the Royal Imperial Club......

......

Here, everyone is seated.

Soon, the food was served, and the banquet was held in the form of a flowing water feast.

Roast suckling pig, sauce elbow, steamed pork belly, banana leaf fragrant pork belly, apricot syrup crispy pork, poria cocos pork knuckle soup,...... Countless dishes that have never been heard of are served on the table one by one, and they are excellent in appearance, full of aroma, and make people appetize.

After walking all morning, everyone was hungry, but no one was willing to move the chopsticks first.

The ancients paid great attention to identity, pork was cheap meat, and before the Tang Dynasty, it was generally eaten by untouchables. Faced with a table of delicacies, everyone could only swallow their saliva desperately for the sake of face.

"You nobles, you are really hypocritical, don't you just have a little fishy smell, you're afraid of an egg. ”

"That's it, there was a disaster in Hebei back then, not to mention pork, I have eaten ant meat, I'll come first. ”

The two stout men shrunk their noses and rubbed their chopsticks vigorously, obviously unable to hold it back. The two glanced at each other, stretched out their chopsticks together, and each of them put a piece of pig's foot skin into their mouths.

Slurred,

Hiss –

"Oh my God, it's delicious. ”

"It melts in your mouth, it leaves a fragrance on your lips and teeth, it's so beautiful. ”

The two of them were shocked, and Qi Qi stretched out his chopsticks to the roast suckling pig.

"Really, fake?" everyone raised their chopsticks one after another.

"Oh my God, it's delicious, it's delicious!"

"Is this still pork? This is simply fairy meat!"

"Grass mud horse, Lao Wang, don't rob the elbow of labor and capital-"

"Don't worry, there's still a main dish missing. Fu Junwu reminded everyone.

As soon as the words fell, I saw a row of people who looked like palace maids walking out of the back kitchen, bringing out several steaming soup pots.

"Your Majesty is sympathetic to the people, and specially ordered the eldest princess to cook this dish herself. ”

"What? Princess Nanyang cooks herself!"

This time, no one needed to take the lead, and everyone fought like hungry wolves.

The scene was chaotic for a while.

"One spoonful per person, don't rob it. Eh, do not use a basin spoon. ”

"Let me taste it!"

"Ah...... The pork belly slowly melts in your mouth, how delicate and elegant the texture is......"

"This, how solemn and gorgeous the sweetness of this cabbage, as if swept by the waves, but it is incomparably colorful and intriguingly rich. ”

"Oh my God, compared to this dish, I used to eat like a soulless shell. A young man said with crooked eyes.

If someone tells them in advance that one day they will be so crazy about a bowl of pork, I am afraid that these people will instantly slap their faces and say "fart".

And yet now......

Crazy, completely insane.

Full of wine and food, everyone stood up one by one with a big belly and leaning against the wall, burping one after another, just when it was suitable for eating, Fu Junwu clapped her hands and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, next, I'm going to take you to the most central area. It was also the real purpose of Taishi's establishment of the pig farm in the southern suburbs. Ladies and gentlemen, please come with me. ”

"Is the real purpose...... Li Shimin's eyes flashed with an unprecedented divine light, and he could finally see through the truth of this matter!

When the crowd of thousands of people walked towards the mountain again, the great Confucian Wang Tong in the distance suddenly let out a startled "huh", looked at Shi Min's back and muttered:

"How can this back be so familiar......

He stroked his beard and looked at Shi Min's eyes with a sparkle of essence,

"Come on, prepare the horses!"

......

When everyone passed through the three heavily guarded checkpoints and arrived at this area with the sign of "Industrial Zone" written on it, it was really an eye-opener.

"This ...... A grinding disc that doesn't need a donkey or a horse, and will grind automatically?"

"I'm Di Niang, hell, no one is around, and the loom is moving by itself!"

"Look, there's a self-running waterwheel over there!"

"There is also the wooden ox and flowing horse built by Zhuge Wuhou back then, this ....... No, it's an iron bull. The iron ox that ploughs the fields and plows the land automatically, my God, have I arrived in the fairyland?"

"Taishi must have moved the technology of the fairy world down the world!"

Everyone was amazed, and some even knelt on the ground with a snap.

Fu Junwu admired everyone's demeanor with satisfaction, and then pointed to the countless huge black towers on the north slope and said, "Everyone, the iron tower over there is the reason why many things in this area can operate automatically. It's called the Steam Engine!"

"Steam engine?"

Although the crowd was shocked, they did not quite understand the meaning.

But one of the people in the crowd frowned, and his face was like a chrysanthemum blooming.

This person is Li Shimin,

He knew after a little calculation in his heart: what kind of bullshit farming and pig raising, what Yuwentuo really wants to do is this steam engine!

His purpose has never been fame, popularity. These are the smoke bombs he released, and the targets that are really hidden in the shadows are always those big families!

At this moment, the representatives of several families in the crowd were suddenly shocked, and instantly grasped the great benefits that this thing could bring to them, and after a little thought, someone couldn't help but step forward and ask:

"Can this steam engine be sold? No matter how much it is, my Qinghe Cui clan is determined to get it!"

"The Taishi has already instructed that if there are less than a million guan, there is no need to talk about it. ”

"Millions, I want it from the Taiyuan royal family!"

"Bastard, this matter was first opened by my Cui family. Two million one, we want them all!"

Seeing that this group of family members were blushing for a steam engine, Li Shimin's face changed again, his heart trembled, and he couldn't wait to leave quickly and inform his father of the news.

However, even if he knew, what was the use? The pride in his heart that he had gained because of the success of his previous plan disappeared in an instant, and he even felt a faint palpitation, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more he thought about it, the more shocked he became, and a handful of cold sweat broke out in his palms......

......

Taishi's mansion.

Shen Luoyan held a cup of sobering ginger tea and listened to the Taishi's explanation with a red face.

It wasn't until he listened to his narration that Shen Luoyan's eyes lit up and said: "I see, Taishi raised pigs and paid attention to people's livelihood, and he was just an idle man who took advantage of the situation...... The lord's purpose has always been to destroy the family. It's just that this trick can really be as the Taishi said, so effective??"

Mo Xiaolou smiled and said, "Does Luo Yan know about Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty?"

Shen Luoyan replied in a coquettish voice: "Is the Taishi taking the examination for me? Who doesn't know about Tuoba Hong? During the reign of this person, he carried out the road of reform in a big way, replacing Xianbei with Hanfu and Xianbei with Chinese, and the Xianbei people from Qianluo took Luoyang as their hometown, changed their Xianbei surname to Han surname, and changed their surname to "Yuan" themselves. ”

Mo Xiaolou raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Then what did Luo Yan see from this matter?"

At this time, the secret room where the two of them were was a little dim, and the shadows cast by the two of them swayed on the wall, and there was a feeling of sitting and talking. Shen Luoyan replied with a smile:

"As a monarch, Emperor Xiaowen did make the Northern Wei Dynasty flourish during his reign, and he can be regarded as a masterpiece of a generation. ”

"This is from the perspective of the Han people, what if it is based on Xianbei?"

"Huh?" Shen Luoyan frowned, "Xianbei ......"

She is an extremely smart person, Mo Xiaolou mentioned it a little, and he had already thought of the key point, and his face was suddenly shocked.

"We Han people gave him Hanfu, he lost his clothes, gave him Chinese, he lost his language, gave him Chinese characters, he lost civilization, gave him country, he lost thousands of years of inheritance...... All of these are the most important things of a race. Emperor Xiaowen's reform is good, but in the current situation, what is the difference between Xianbei and the extinction of the country?"

Shen Luoyan's face showed a light of wisdom, "If you want to take it, you must first go with it! Taishi's steam engine is the family's 'Emperor Xiaowen'!!"

Mo Xiaolou struck the knot and praised: "Luo Yan is really smart, and he can see through it at one point." Yes, whether it is Yang Guang or people in the world, they all know the shortcomings of the family and want to get rid of it, but they don't know that the family itself is transformed from the people. The endless flow of life is determined by labor relations......

But if we think about it the other way around—"

Mo Xiaolou's eyes flashed with unprecedented light, and with a wave of his big sleeves, his bearing was like holding the heavens and the earth.

"I don't destroy the family, but give them things.

You must know that there are two main reasons why a family can become a family: blood inheritance and cultural inheritance.

Needless to say, the bloodline is like the Taiyuan Wang family, there are more than 20,000 people with the surname Wang in a family, all over the country, not to mention the inextricable connections with the courtiers and even the royal family. It is impossible to destroy them;

The cultural inheritance is mainly books, knowledge, status, and family heritage...... These have been inherited for thousands of years and have been deeply rooted.

So...... The Maison, and the Maison, are monolithic, and it is difficult to dismantle them from the outside. ”

Mo Xiaolou secretly took out a pot of wine, poured a sip into his mouth, and in Shen Luoyan's admiring gaze, he exerted his wisdom far beyond this era, and continued to talk eloquently:

"The steam revolution is not to seize the things of the family, but to give them more advanced production tools, so that they can take the initiative to give up the inheritance of the family and transform from the family to the first batch of capitalists in our Great Sui. ”

"Capitalists?"

"It's just a way of saying it. The salient characteristic of capitalists is the pursuit of profit. Once I give them the factors of production, those in power among them will surely put all their resources into sweatshops. At that time, the so-called clansmen will become the first targets of their exploitation.

The moment their rulers are transformed into capitalists, the inheritance of the family has been broken. ”

Shen Luoyan's delicate body was shocked, her eyes were full of energy, looking at Mo Xiaolou's handsome face, her cheeks were red with excitement, and her heartbeat was like a deer crashing: "The lord's public plan is really upright, and there is no way to solve it." With the shrewdness of the family, it is impossible to give up this opportunity to make a profit...... Even if you know that the inheritance will be broken, there will always be someone who will stand up and accept this more advanced ...... Well, 'relations of production'. ”

"Not bad—" Mo Xiaolou chuckled,

"By extension, when everyone sees the benefits, the Maison will naturally be used by me. In the past, when the imperial court ruled the country, it had to allocate energy to check and balance the families and prevent them from secretly funding careerists to rebel...... Now, the family has become the last thing you want the world to be chaotic!

The more stable the world, the greater their interests!

These people are the first batch of capitalists......

After tasting the sweetness of profit......"

Mo Xiaolou suddenly opened his arms, like the king of the world,

"If anyone dares to touch their cake again, hehe......"
