seventy-six east wind
In the early years of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, where both material and spiritual civilization were extremely lacking, it was not much easier to do things that seemed very easy in the future than climbing the sky. Although Suning was not a formal official, he also claimed to be a minister in front of His Er, and had a title. If he went directly to handle the restaurant and did business, I am afraid that the old man Kong Yingda would not agree. He sat at the door of his house every day, or even at the door of the restaurant, forcing himself to close the restaurant and study hard, let alone those censors who took impeachment of the powerful and unafraid of death...
This is the case with the strict laws of the Tang Dynasty. Officials cannot do business. In principle, once they are discovered, they will be dead and are a minefield that cannot be touched. However, the so-called law does not punish the masses. The salary of the Tang Dynasty is not high, and it cannot be rewarded with dozens of millions of dollars like the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty is rich! His Majesty Li Er is poor! Relying on salary alone can only barely maintain the life of the nobles, but who would like to eat simple food every day?
So everyone looked for various loopholes in the law. As a great time traveler and a great loophole, Suning faced the Tang Dynasty's riddled law, smiled indifferently, urged his hips to get down and galloped forward without any obstacles. Even if there was a pit or a groove occasionally, it was just considered to be a horsemanship and there was no pressure.
Officials are not allowed to do business, but it is said that officials' families and servants are not allowed to do business? The Tang people can take advantage of loopholes, let alone Suning? Isn't it better to find a reliable person to help!
Soy sauce is easy to make, after all, no one has made soy sauce at this time. Beans are used as soy products and tofu. You don’t have to worry about anyone competing for the world. You are the ancestor. With soy sauce, braised cooking methods can be born, braised lion head, braised fish, braised pork, but I miss Suning so much! I’m so hungry about Suning’s greed!
Sucrose is a bit troublesome. There are sugar-making workshops in Chang'an because the cost is too high. For example, the raw materials are produced far away and the freight is high. If you go by land, it will be too difficult and it will be difficult to travel! Not only in Shu, but also in Jiangnan today. Even after the development of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Song Qi, Liang and Chen Dynasty, it has reached a wild place. It was not until the Southern Song Dynasty that Jiangnan developed through commerce. Therefore, it is too difficult to obtain high-quality sugarcane far away from Guangzhou and other places by land. Moreover, the cost is not generally high, which is completely in line with your own interests.
Beets suitable for growing in cold northern regions are native to the western and southern coasts of Europe. They were introduced to China from Arab countries in the middle and late Ming Dynasty in 1500. Suning flipped his backpack and gave up. Without beet seeds, it was impossible to do it. At present, there are no large-scale crops that can be used for sugarcane.
Using sugar to dishes, or even sweet soups that can only be eaten by noble families in the palace, require a lot of sugar. Currently, the sugar workshops in Chang'an are basically opened in noble families. They are used by nobles and royal families. They are high-end goods. They are impossible for me to get them for a small number of people. Even if they get them, they will be extremely expensive. If these sweets become popular, they will be very likely to be threatened by the sugar provider. This is not possible. The ingredients must be in your own hands!
The fief is so big, with 600 households fiefs. The ox prepared for them has been issued. A batch of livestock purchased has arrived at the new home to thrive. Chicken, duck, geese, and pigs have been allocated. Let’s take the money to get rich at the beginning. Although the Tang people do not eat pork at present, only a small number of poor people will eat pork that is generally regarded as lowly meat. They do not understand that pigs are castrated, otherwise it will be a scent. Except for breeding pigs and sows, other boars will be castrated. Suning has already ordered this. Everything that the restaurant needs in the future can be purchased from the fief. Don’t worry about the source being cut off, and everyone will be rich together.
So after this season, when the autumn harvest comes, there are almost all kinds of vegetables, meat and rice. In these few months, the sugar and soy sauce are done, and the greenhouse fruits and vegetables can be made. In winter, the most glorious restaurant in the Tang Dynasty can be opened. I’m busy! I’m busy with sugar and soy sauce, and I’m busy with greenhouse fruits and livestock, alas!
After thinking about it, Suning felt that other things could be done as long as you order them. Even soybeans can be planted in the fiefdom and brewed soy sauce by themselves without relying on others. However, Suning really has no way to let sugarcane grow in Guanzhong. Sugarcane requires sufficient temperature, sufficient sunlight and sufficient moisture. These elements are not available in Guanzhong, so Guanzhong is still unable to grow sugarcane at present, and can only rely on sugarcane origin far away in Guangzhou. The reason why sugar is so expensive is because of this. Suning does not have sugarcane seeds, and even if there are, it may not be possible.
In the future, I would like to create some candy industry to enrich the material civilization of the Tang Dynasty, but it would be a taboo! And I can't get it yet! Suning is quite depressed. If this problem is not solved, what a huge profit loss would be! If such a large industrial chain is completed, what a great profit would be! Not to mention yourself, even your fifth-generation grandson and sixth generation grandson don't have to worry about not having money to use it!
After thinking about it, Suning couldn't find a good way, so he was very angry, so he cut a large piece of beef, cut it, and threw it into the hot pot, turning grief and anger into food...
On the second day, Suning found someone who built the house and told them to build a few suitable greenhouses according to their requirements. The Su Mansion was big enough, but there were very few people living there, so the quality and quantity of greenhouses must meet the standards, otherwise there would be no more vegetables in winter. It was originally a big selling point to launch vegetables and fruits in winter. Now, eating vegetables and fruits in winter is the treatment of the emperor, the queen and the prince. Oh, and the richest Lord Li Yuan in the world...
It doesn’t matter in spring. You can grow vegetables in the ground, but when winter comes, the vegetables are almost over and cannot be grown. At that time, you can only eat dried vegetables. It can be said that eating vegetables and fruits in winter is the biggest luxury before the greenhouse appears, except for those who have not experienced winter. So Suning is going to make them out at home first and test the effect. Then, there is an industrial transfer to its own farm and promote it on a large scale. As for whether it will be promoted to the entire Tang Dynasty, it depends on your mood!
After giving the instructions, Suning told Wang and Liu to watch a little, clean up and then go to Hongwenguan. Although they had been on a three-day holiday, the moisture inside was also understood by the old man Kong Yingda, so Suning planned not to wait for three days before going there. One morning was enough. After lunch and the afternoon, he would just take the class as if he was injured. It would be so good, show his style and set an example for those playboys.
I rode a horse to Zhuque Gate, handed over the waist sign, and the guard put himself in and came to Hongwenguan smoothly. It was still lunch break, and Hongwenguan had a bit of the prototype of a later school. I didn't take home from school at noon. After dinner, I would rest in Hongwenguan, take a nap in the school, or take a walk outside. The scenery of Hongwenguan is very good, with lush trees, and there are several small ponds, and there are a few small fish inside. The warm spring breeze in the afternoon blows on my face, which has a unique flavor.
Everyone is very good at not disturbing napping, except for those who snore. Those who don’t take naps are walking on the huge ground in groups. It is quite strange to see Suning coming. Suning smiled and raised his hand to say hello to everyone. Many people also smiled and nodded to Suning. It seems that the storm a few days ago has left a good impression on many people. Suning is quite happy, but he didn’t see Li Chengqian and Changsun Chong after seeing him, and Li Boyao and Li Zhen were not seen either.
When he entered the school, Suning was surprised to see Changsun Chong reading with you and me, accompanied by Princess Changle. After reading for a while, he looked at each other and smiled for a while, as if you were a loving couple who were ploughing the fields and weaving cloth. When he saw Suning suddenly felt the urge to vomit. Of course, beating Changsun Chong was something that Suning wanted to do even more. Li Chengqian, Li Zhen, Li Boyao, three little Lis took a book or wrote with a brush. They were particularly serious, as if they turned a blind eye to the loving appearance of Changsun and his wife...
There are only these five people in the entire school...
"Everyone, I'm back!" Suning raised his hand and said with a smile. The five people in the school immediately raised their heads and smiled in surprise. Li Chengqian was the first to rush over and punched Suning in the chest: "Didn't you say you want to rest for three days? Why did you come at this time?" Li Zhen and Li Boyao also stepped forward, grabbed Suning's left hand respectively, and came alone.
"Brother Sanming, I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you so much!" Li Zhen slapped.
"Brother Sanming, I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you even more!" Li Boyao slapped hard.
"Sanming! I miss you so much!" Changsun hugged a bear, then held Suning's left hand tightly...
Suning suddenly felt like crying without tears...
After the welcoming ceremony, everyone sat together. As the earliest friends to meet and a community of interests, the five people became the five people gang, and their relationship steadily increased. Oh, including the wife of Changsun, Princess Changle, and the six people gang, sat together, narrating the longing after parting...
"I'm talking to you, can you stop sticking to your wife every day? I'm afraid that others don't know that you have a wife, right? How do you let the four of us deal with ourselves? You guys who forget your friends when you see each other!" Suning took the lead in launching a heavy fire bombardment at Changsun Chong. Who asked Changsun Chong to pinch his hand hard?
"That's it! Sitting together every day is just that Mr. Kong doesn't care. Look at what others think of you? It's really annoying to do this!" Li Zhen was heartbroken!
"This is indeed not good, there are indeed some problems." Li Boyao is a warrior and a real honest person.
"Little sister, brother-in-law, although you have been accused of marriage by your father, the school is not just our own family, nor is the school at home. You still need to pay attention to it. It is better not to be so arrogant about such things." As the prince's brother-in-law, Li Chengqian, who had grown a senior at once, said earnestly.
Changsun Chong's face was embarrassed, but after staying with Suning for a long time, his face became much thicker. Princess Changle is young, prone to shyness and blushing. I have to say that children nowadays are really precocious! So Suning was jealous and was about to lead the bastards to attack again, but suddenly he heard a hesitant voice: "Su, Suning, you, come out."
