Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty - Chapter 208
When Li Yuanying received Li Chengqian, she was in a good mood and asked someone to hold a banquet for Li Chengqian in Fengtai Building. Fengtai Building usually undertakes various banquets and has rich experience, and the Prince’s presence is not in the slightest hectic.
After Li Chengqian entered the table, Li Yuanying had people served a round of appetizers first, and then changed the dishes round after round. After 13 rounds of changes, he gave Li Chengqian the dishes of the season.
Although Li Chengqian only ate a few mouthfuls of each, he was still full. After the banquet was over, he and Li Yuanying went for a walk in the palace for digestion. He was full of praise for the rich and layered dishes of Fengtai House.
Li Yuanying said: “The chefs of Fengtailou are all people who have been immersed in cooking for a lifetime, so they can naturally figure out many ways to eat.”
Since the development of Fengtai Building, it is no longer an ordinary place to eat. Fengtai Building will guide the people to grow fruits and vegetables and what livestock to raise according to their needs, and tell them which ingredients are already in supply and which are in great demand. The arrangements for agriculture and animal husbandry are clear and straightforward.
Because of its rich variety of dishes, Fengtai Lou will launch new products in season almost every month. In addition to giving agricultural lectures to guide the common people, they also hold cooking lectures from time to time to let people learn some cheap home cooking methods. . This kind of dishes is not the scope of Fengtai Lou’s consumption, and everyone in the church is okay, so the chefs follow Li Yuanying’s intentions and start the class without any secret.
These things determine that Fengtai House will not be an ordinary restaurant. These people who came to learn cooking were both males and females. At first, the female family members were embarrassed to come, but later it seemed that there were more girls before they had the courage to come with them.
People can’t live in poverty all their lives. Many people have received guidance or learned cooking from Fengtai Lou, and they have a little different feelings for Fengtai Lou. “As the goal. Even if they have nothing to do with a cup, when their sons and grandsons are successful, there will always be a chance to realize this cautious wish.
At the beginning, Li Yuanying provided free meals at Fengtai Building for the Imperial College and was regarded as a fool, but these things actually paid off in the long run.
Whether it is in the hearts of ordinary people or in the hearts of scholars, the current Fengtailou has a completely different position from other restaurants and restaurants.
Li Yuanying accompanied Li Chengqian on a walk in the corridor of Prince Teng’s Mansion, and talked to Li Chengqian about the purpose of these arrangements. “Xunzi” says that water can carry and overturn the boat. The people are not fools, who treats them well and who treats them badly, they know it in their hearts. They will be grateful to you if you don’t call them twice, and you miss them. What is needed and what they want to do to really make them live better and faster.
This year, most of the fields in Tengzhou have voluntarily planted Champo rice seeds. Although the output has not yet been seen, it seems that this year will be a bumper year. The lack of water in some places has not affected the growth of Champo rice seeds. Drought resistant.
Without the usual guidance and organization, the people would not be able to use their rations for the next year to try out new rice varieties, even if Li Yuanying promised them to save money, they would be unwilling.
Li Chengqian listened to Li Yuanying talking about the plan of Tengzhou, and found that even if it is a small step, it is closely related and integrated with the entire plan.
Therefore, when planning, you have to take one step at a time.
This kind of careful arrangement could not have been thought of by Li Yuanying. Li Yuanying has always been the most ingenious and has never been down-to-earth.
Li Chengqian boasted: “Uncle Yao, you are really talented.”
Li Yuanying looked proud: “That’s natural. Whether it’s Sister Shu or Mei Niang, Di Renjie or Tang Jing, they are all amazing.” After eating, drinking, and drinking, Li Yuanying felt that digestion was almost done, and Li Chengqian was allowed to rest.
The prince drove in Tengzhou for a few days and followed Li Yuanying to walk around. Tang Guan and Tang Yong, who decided to return to Beijing, also accompanied them all the way to show Li Chengqian their achievements in Tengzhou.
When Li Chengqian first arrived in Tengzhou, he only felt that Tengzhou was more lively than other places. After walking with Li Yuanying for a few days and seeing the changes in the pilot counties, Li Chengqian knew where the excitement came from and how many people’s efforts had been devoted. It is not easy to want the entire Datang to become vibrant!
Along the way, the two nephews and uncles also discussed the words of Emperor Han Jing. Emperor Jing of the Han issued an edict with a paragraph that reads “Glyphs and engravings will hurt the farmers; the Splendid Compilation Group will harm the women’s celebrities.” It means that your pursuit of exquisite engravings will delay the farmers’ work in the farming. ; Your pursuit of the Splendid Compilation Team will hinder women from weaving and sewing, so you should not be greedy for enjoyment and love luxury.
There is a certain truth to these words. If there is not enough manpower and food, the superiors will be extravagant and desperate, which will be endless harm to the people. Therefore, if you want to pursue good food, drink and fun, and the pursuit of beautiful clothes and precious treasures, it is necessary for the people to have “surplus energy.”
To achieve “surplus energy”, the most basic point is that someone has food.
High-yield grains, high-efficiency farming tools, and animal power instead of manpower are all prepared for all this.
Li Yuanying roughly gave Li Chengqian a plan for the future development direction-
First, we must encourage everyone to become their own children, put out some good words and songs that praise love and praise the family, and even arrange some love stories in common, and engage in more social activities like the Shangyuan Lantern Festival to make everyone active establish a family.
Second, we must raise more cattle, sheep, mules and horses, and it is best to have one cow for every household to save human resources. This guy has been working hard. The selection and breeding work at Xiangcheng Palace must not be relaxed. It is necessary to select a good breed of cattle that is good to feed and can work.
The third is what Tengzhou has been doing now. It is not easy to develop more efficient new farm tools and find more quality rice seeds. There are hundreds of cereal crops in the world, and the only ones that are most suitable for food are “grains”. So selection and breeding is a long process. Even if you find high-yield crops, they are not necessarily suitable for eating. For example, wheat used to be eaten less. Firstly, it is not tasty when cooked, and secondly, it is not easy to digest and get sick after eating. There are several fermentation methods that can make wheat easy to digest. This Li Yuanying also made Fengtailou think about developing a lot of new methods, hoping to make people get used to eating noodles earlier. After all, some places are more suitable for growing wheat.
These ideas provided by Li Yuanying are very pragmatic and highly maneuverable. Li Chengqian brought this group of experienced talents from Tengzhou back to work immediately. Li Chengqian listened all the way and knew what to do after returning to Beijing.
After talking about business, Li Yuanying thought about having fun again. In fact, he thought about these things for good fun. Some people play with him, some people give him delicious recipes, and some people give him fun things. Only then can his life be fun and enjoyable!
Li Yuanying took Li Chengqian to the beach.
After arriving at the harbour, Li Chengqian saw a wharf ship under pressure from the Uganda. The two men took the guards and looked far away, and Li Chengqian counted down. The number of these ships was astonishing, and the specific number was more than he estimated.
Li Yuanying explained to Li Chengqian: “These are all scheduled boats that have not come out yet. When we finish watching the drill and take a day off, let the navy **** them out to sea and take them out to sea to find their treasures.”
Li Chengqian knew that Li Yuanying had found a lot of good things on the sea, and he didn’t question whether he could find the treasure when he went to sea. He asked Li Yuanying: “Are we here to watch the drill?”
Li Yuanying said: “It’s better to go a little longer. There are so many merchant ships here, and it is distressing to break it. It is not easy for a shipbuilder to build a ship.”
Li Chengqian was a little surprised. Would it still be broken?
Li Yuanying led Li Chengqian around a bend and walked to the shore with a wider view, making people wave a flag to start the exercise. After a while, Li Chengqian saw several ships appearing on the distant sea that were more imposing than those merchant ships just now.
The sea is rough, but because the sea is too wide, it seems calm and calm from a distance. Li Chengqian didn’t have many opportunities to go to the beach. Looking at the sea at this time, he felt that every pore on his body was relaxed with the oncoming sea breeze, and he was extremely comfortable.
Li Chengqian discovered that the dozen or so ships were still chasing a creature he had never seen before. The creature only exposed a sharp corner on the surface of the water, but as long as you can see the waves of water around it, you can see that its physique is definitely not small!
Li Chengqian was surprised: “What is that?” That thing may seem to be about the same size as a sea ship!
Li Yuanying said: “Some of these big guys are called mackerel sharks. They are fierce by nature and can be very dangerous when they encounter them. Some are commonly called big fish. They have a more docile temperament, but they are also very large. Because there is less food in the sea, these big guys are relatively rare in the coastal areas. When Dai Ting saw the Japanese people hunt this kind of creature when he was in the country, Dai Ting learned a lot about the ways to control these behemoths from the Japanese people who lived by the sea, Xiao Li They often use them to practice their hands when they go to sea, and several batches of boats have been broken.” Li Yuanying is a little bit painful when it comes to this, “They are so prodigal!”
This time Li Yuanying asked Li Dejian and the others to lure a big guy back to give Li Chengqian insights. Li Dejian took the order to go to sea. It seemed that he did not humiliate his mission and successfully recruited a fierce big guy.
In order to cope with the behemoth, the ships on the sea gathered and scattered in an orderly manner, firmly holding the shark sharks with amazing combat effectiveness. As a group of brave soldiers attacked in turn, the blood quickly stained a whole piece of sea water.
Li Chengqian was fascinated by it.
At the beginning, he was the one who could take Li Yuanying to watch the Elephant Horse Fight together. This fierce battle at sea naturally made him unable to look away. This is too exciting! That big guy was completely revealed before and after, Li Chengqian could be sure that at least many people can hug it!
Bigger than an elephant!
Are there so many fierce big guys hiding in the sea?
Li Chengqian asked Li Yuanying, “Isn’t it dangerous to go to sea?”
Li Yuanying said: “Yes, it’s dangerous, but I was lucky the last time I went out, and I didn’t encounter any danger all the way.”
Li Chengqian thought of the beating Li Yuanying suffered, and the heat in his heart disappeared. Even Li Yuanying can’t go to sea casually, let alone his prince. Li Chengqian was already very satisfied to stand here and experience eye addiction. Seeing that the fight at sea was over, Li Dejian led the scarred shark to the shore, and Li Yuanying dragged Li Chengqian down to see its true face up close.
When they got closer, both Li Yuanying and Li Chengqian found that this big guy’s teeth were very huge. Li Yuanying had never been afraid of death, and even reached out to touch them. After touching it, I felt that my hands were wet and smelly, so I hurriedly asked someone to wash my hands with water.
The two uncles and nephews walked around the mackerel, and they were amazed. They both felt that the world is so great. Du He also asked someone to bring a few water tanks, saying that he had caught a batch of mackerel shark cubs, which were still very young, and their teeth had grown. They could take them back to the emperor’s grandson to enjoy them. Just be careful on the transportation. Firstly, they eat meat. Secondly, they can’t exchange for fresh water. If the seawater is not available, pour some seawater into the water to get enough salt, but it has to be added proportionally.
This method of raising mackerel shark cubs was developed by the group of chemistry people in the college.
Having said that, Du He also glanced at Li Yuanying. These boring talents were cultivated by Li Yuanying’s money. I really don’t know why Li Yuanying hasn’t made himself a pauper!
Li Yuanying said: “Yes, take it back and show them to the elephants.” He asked Li Chengqian if the kindergarten was opened. When it was opened, he asked them to prepare more marine specimens or living creatures to feed back and let them see the underwater world. How wonderful. The curiosity of the ocean must start with the doll!
Li Chengqian said, “I had already prepared when I set off, and it should be just right to take it back.”
Then Li Chengqian began to hint that Li Yuanying would take him to see the specimen. In fact, as a Prince Zhaijing who has never been to the beach, he also wants to open his eyes!

Little Prince: I will not only harm the next generation, but also the next generation of the next generation.
