Chapter 4282: eat well

"Husband, I'm sorry..." Xu Ning said softly after Lu Su got into the car.

"It's my own problem. The Xu family just did what they have always done." Lu Su said casually, then opened the car window, looked towards Chang'an, and vaguely saw a group of watchers on the city wall of Chang'an own general school.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and the others didn't come, they knew what Lu Su had done, and although they should have come to send them off in personal terms, Lu Su mixed the three questions together to form a coercion, like As Yu Jin said at the time, he almost couldn't hold back his eyes to Lu Su.

Coupled with the fact that Lu Su went to the Ganges, this group of people will inevitably look up and down in the future. Guan Yu and others are going to get drunk and confuse this matter.

As a result, when the time came for Lu Su to really leave, the group of people woke up, and then collectively appeared on the Chang'an city wall to watch the guards **** Lu Su to the Ganges.

"Xiang'er, why are you fidgeting? What happened?" After Lu Su closed the car window, he turned his head and saw Ji Xiang's expressionless face, but somewhat fidgeting.

"My sister managed to get a full set of medical equipment from Marquis Chen, but she had to go to the Ganges before she had fun." Xu Ning said looking at Ji Xiang.

"It's hard for her." Lu Su sighed, then touched Ji Xiang's head, and Ji Xiang became less restless, "Take a good rest, those things will be sent to the Ganges later."

"Father, do I not need to go to school anymore?" Lu Shu asked doubtfully.

"You still need to read the books you need to study." Xu Ning pressed Lu Shu's head and said, "In the future, my aunt will have no students, so I will teach you one."

"Oh." Lu Shu nodded a little disappointed. At his age, he didn't want to study. He thought that he didn't need to study this time, but he didn't expect to have to study.

"Let's learn, books are still very interesting." Lu Su said gently.

"Let's go, let's go, Zijing has already walked more than ten kilometers, and he has passed the horizon, so he can't see it anymore." Zhang Fei yelled, and they all stood on the city wall of Chang'an to watch Lu Su. Wenchen, who came from Taishan, started at the beginning, and the relationship was pretty good at the beginning, but many things will not be transferred according to personal will.

"Let's go." Hua Xiong greeted, and then a group of people came down from the top of the city, ready to continue to drink, and they won't be able to stay for long when they come back. It is impossible for Ganges to be so empty all the time, even if they believe in the abilities of people like Zhong Yao, but After talking for a long time, Guishuang will find out sooner or later.

"Speaking of which, even though I have been fighting in the South and the North for so many years, I haven't really seen the world of the Central Plains." Zhao Yun said somewhat sadly when he followed Guan Yu down the city wall.

Guan Yu paused, looked sideways at Zhao Yun, and said nothing in the end. Indeed, most of the generals and schools in this world don't have time to take a good look at the Central Plains world.

If you really want to say that there are only a few people like Sansha who have traveled to most places in the Central Plains.

In fact, even Liu Bei and Chen Xi have not traveled all over the Central Plains. The original plan was to visit Yongliang and Yizhou in the eighth year of Yuanfeng, take the Yangtze River, cross the Grand Canal north to Jizhou, take a boat to Liaoxi, and then land to Liaodong, all the way west. Youzhou and Bingzhou went south to Chang'an.

It's a pity that Liu Hao's case involved a lot of energy, which led to the shelving of the original inspection plan, and it is estimated that it will not be implemented until the beginning of the tenth year of Yuanfeng.

In this way, there is a high probability that the grand court meeting at the end of Yuanfeng's tenth year will be postponed again, but it's nothing, the grand court meeting at the end of Yuanfeng's fifth year has been postponed, which is considered an old rule.

"When Guishuang is destroyed in the future, the world is settled, and we will be free." Yu Jin said to Zhao Yun. Among the generals of the Han army, Zhao Yun is the most sensitive one.

"That's right." Zhao Yun nodded and didn't say anything, but he vaguely felt that even if Guishuang was defeated, it might not be over.

"Send it away?" Chen Xi stopped the spoon in his hand and asked Liu Bei when he saw Liu Bei appearing while eating braised pork rice.

"Well, I'm sending it away. The lunch is not bad. It's actually one of the eight treasures of the emperor." Liu Bei looked at the stewed pork rice served by the boss of the Political Yuan, and originally wanted to find an excuse to change the topic.

, With a glance down, I found a very suitable topic.

Chen Xi paused for a moment while chopping the rice, and then looked down. Indeed, it is indeed one of the eight treasures of Zhou Li's emperor, Chunao. No wonder every time he eats braised pork rice, the bureaucrats working in the Political Council celebrate the festival with him. Same, besides being really delicious, the meal probably has enough quality.

"Mr. Xuande, when you said this, do you know what I remembered?" Chen Xi looked away from the bowl, then looked at Liu Bei and said.

"What?" Liu Bei asked curiously.

"Princess has been eating too much meat every day for a while." Chen Xi said with a smile, taking a whole head of the best beef cattle as food, according to Zhou etiquette, it is too much meat.

"..." Zhuge Liang, who was eating at the side, glanced at Chen Xi, if he didn't know that Liu Tong's prison was often allocated to the Political Yuan, he would have to say something extravagant.

"Times have changed. It was difficult to supply these things in the past, but now they can be supplied, so it seems normal, but it's good to be normal." Chen Xi restrained his smile and said slowly, "How about changing the year-end goal to On New Year’s Eve, each person will receive a bowl of stewed pork rice.”

"I think it's better to forget it. It's almost the Chinese New Year. Now it's changed to this. I'm a little nervous. Some things look small, but counting the number of people, it's terrible." Zhuge Liang interrupted Chen Xi's words, "This scoop Braised pork, multiplied by the total population of 8,000 in the inner and outer jurisdictions, is not a matter of money, just deploying manpower requires a lot of energy.”

"Then why not change it to the first day of the new year, and have a good meal on the first day of the first lunar month." Chen Xi said with a smile.

"It's no different from yours. It's too late in terms of time, and the meat transportation is also a little too late. Not to mention the manpower problem, just the transportation is troublesome enough, and there is no complete animal husbandry in the south. This thing is not good. Use fish." Zhuge Liang said while holding the spoon.

It's not that it's a matter of Chen Xi thinking about it, Zhuge Liang knows that Chen Xi can do it if he really wants to, but the time is too rushed, there is no need to do it.

"That's right." Chen Xi nodded without retorting, "Actually, what you said is not the point. The point is not what you said. Those problems can be solved. The eldest princess can distribute the snacks to people. On the contrary, I can ship this thing to the distribution, the real problem is not in this aspect."

"Because the common people may not know how to make this kind of thing." The cook also brought Liu Bei the stewed pork rice, after a taste, Liu Bei gave the answer instead of Chen Xi.

"Yes, those above are not the problem, but the one below is the problem." Chen Xi nodded. Distributing supplies is difficult, but it has been done several times. People don't care if it's later, they say it's a New Year's Eve dinner, but if it doesn't arrive on New Year's Eve or New Year's Day, as long as it arrives before Lantern Festival, these people will be happy to accept it.

In fact, according to the custom of the Chinese people, before the Lantern Festival is regarded as the new year's festival. On the contrary, how to make stewed pork rice is a big problem. To be honest, Chen Xi doesn't have much confidence in the cooks of this era.

There is a saying that it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Before Yuan Fengnian, the common people would basically face the problem of not having enough food supplies. In this case, ordinary families have a ghost time to study how to cook and how to eat. Not even rice, let alone meat.

In fact, the real explosive growth of Chinese food began in the Tang and Song Dynasties. After the Tang Dynasty solved the problem of eating in Zhenguan, the concept of research on how to eat better came into being. When it was Kaiyuan, "Recalling the heyday of Kaiyuan in the past, Xiao There are still thousands of families in the city, and the rice is flowing and the corn is white." At that time, there was a basis for studying various foods.

Earlier, even rice was not enough, what a ghost to study!

Therefore, if Chen Xi sends out the meat to make stewed pork rice, it will most likely be difficult for those people. Although it is possible to send out the spices and ingredients together, it would be a little deliberately difficult.

In the past, Chen Xi couldn't understand why army cooks needed systematic training. After coming to this era, Chen Xi realized that no training would work. Most of the soldiers may not actually be able to cook. If it is cooked, it’s enough that it won’t ruin your stomach, but the taste and so on are all nonsense. In addition, people seldom leave the local area these days,

There is too little contact with the outside world, and the reaction is on the leader of the gang, that is, after following the army to a new place, the only few garbage recipes are directly finished, but the finished ones are finished, local specialties, simply boiled, Add some salt to the rice, and you can still be full, even if you are hungry, that's all.

The problem is that such a thing is really not delicious, and even a little weird.

Especially when the northern soldiers went south to the Ganges, the first wave of military rations was extorted by Li You from Funan, Mengbang and other places, mainly dried mangoes, bananas, jackfruit and so on.

At that time, when the gang leaders received such a wave of military rations, they were stunned. They had never seen this type of military rations. Forget it, they poured them all into the pot and boiled them with water. The fire boiled vigorously, and the fire simmered randomly until the whole thing was boiled. Boil it into a viscous semi-paste, add salt to it, and make a big bowl for each person.

Chen Xi couldn't imagine what the **** kind of cooking method that was. Anyway, I heard Li You said that the soldiers liked this kind of food, and said it was quite good, especially after adding batter or rice paste to it, it seemed quite delicious , and even Li You deliberately opened the eyes of the people in the Political Yuan.

How should I put it, if you don't mention the strange sticky state, and don't add salt indiscriminately, you can still eat it, especially after filtering the strange rice paste and replacing it with Zhuge Liang's old uncle's sago and Jiaozhou's burnt jelly grass actually tastes pretty good.

Of course, this is considered a successful case, but there are too many failed cases. For example, stir-fried Ganges papaya with exotic aloe from Africa, or the kind without peeling.

How should I put it, I really don’t have diarrhea after eating it, but the taste is really amazing, so after collecting a bunch of classic dishes of Huotoubing, Chen Xi will train Huotoubing in an orderly manner, and I don’t ask you to do it How delicious, at least the dishes to be made will not hurt so much!

It's obviously a few good things, but it makes you extremely weird after cooking together.

For example, the porridge with mango meat and fungus, how should I put it, is absolutely top-notch in terms of nutrition, but when this thing was created by the gang leader, it was almost a fight at that time, because of its color and luster. Mixed style, people speechless.

In short, since then, Chen Xi has specially organized manpower to train gang leaders and cooks in state-owned factories and mines. You don’t need to do a good job, at least it’s at a level that normal humans can accept. Don’t be too fancy. Yes, people can't eat it.

"Is that so?" Zhuge Liang thought for a while, then looked at the oily and fragrant Braised Pork Rice in his bowl, and nodded involuntarily. Indeed, if ordinary people make this thing, I'm afraid it really can't be done. It's quite difficult. High.

"Yes, most people have only been exposed to meat in a serious way in the past few years. In the past, even if they could be exposed to it, there were very few times. It was difficult to accumulate experience in handling meat. Now the mainstream way of cooking meat is not roasting. That’s right, it’s cooking, don’t get your hopes up for something as difficult as it is now, if you can’t make it, trial and error is also the cost.” Chen Xi said with a sigh.

Zhuge Liang was silent for a while. It is true that no matter how common the Zhuge family was, no matter how mixed they were in Nanyang, they were still very different from ordinary people in essence.

At least ordinary people don't have slave boys who take care of themselves, and Zhuge Liang still has them even when he was farming Nanyang.

"However, as long as we continue to develop, the common people will know these things sooner or later, and maybe they will develop new ways to eat them." Chen Xi said with a smile, and then turned to look at Yuan Yin, "Buy one at a low price. Spices from Southeast Asia in Poland are almost ready to be used by the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the basis for peace in the world is to let people eat well first.”

Yuan Yin quickly recorded this matter. The price of spices has plummeted in recent years, but if they enter the supply and marketing cooperatives and all the people can use them, the accumulation of less will make more, and the price should rise a little.

"Let's just tell the south." Chen Xi said casually. Now Southeast Asia is in a state of chaos. The army and navy are passive. Lu Xun and Lu Meng have been transferred back from Central Asia. Many problems are directly placed on Jingchu. In front of the aristocratic family, they are now at a critical point of turmoil. After all, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu don't help, and they don't even have the foundation to save themselves.

Therefore, Chen Xi collects spices at a low price, which can even be counted as

It's a plan to stabilize people's hearts, which is equivalent to telling those people that although you have behaved rubbish, for the sake of Zhu Xia's unity, I will not abandon you directly.
