"Mo Jie, can my wife and children come during the New Year?"
Meng Haoran and Wang Wei, who were not qualified to participate in the conversation, were sitting in a corner. Meng Haoran was thinking about his wife and children.
He was anxious. He wanted to prove himself and get the right to speak in his family.
In the past, he had all kinds of ideas. He did not want to participate in the royal family's struggle.
Later, he had a wife and children, but his father did not agree.
In history, he wished that he could kneel and kowtow to others and ask them to introduce him to Li Longji.
He thought that with his talent, he could rule the world, and the Emperor valued him.
Now, he met the Emperor, and the Emperor gave him a chance to ask about politics, but …
Meng Haoran knew that without Li Yi, he would not be able to meet the Emperor.
Similarly, without Li Yi, he would not be able to answer any political questions.
With Li Yi's existence, he had the chance to continue working hard. Li Yi's face was so big.
At this moment, he just wanted to be a good County Deputy with his wife and children by his side. Countless people wanted to be the County Deputy of Lantian County.
He decided to take it slow and study hard. He did not dare to hope that he could rise to the top. What if the Emperor asked him another question and he could not answer it?
He had the opportunity to meet the Emperor at any time. Then, after meeting the Emperor, he would become familiar with the Emperor.
The Emperor was soaking in a pool. Would he dare to go there?
"Li Yi said that he can definitely go there. You don't know how powerful the Winged Knights are. After the New Year, we will be working here. We have to study hard. "
Wang Wei was also depressed. He chased after the Emperor and caught up. The Emperor approved of writing poems, but the Emperor did not approve of being an official.
Wang Wei actually knew the Prince of Qi, Li Fan, the Prince of Qi from the 5th Prince's residence.
Because of his family's connections and his talent.
So, he knew some things about the Tang dynasty and knew how to answer questions during the imperial examination.
Until now, Wang Wei finally understood who had the final say in the appointment of important officials in the Tang dynasty.
Li Yi could not find anyone he did not like. Bi Goo, a person who did not like to smile, actually brought a fake sword to scare Li Yi.
The key point was that Li Yi was cooperative. Was there a need to talk about the relationship between the two of them?
"So this water is drinkable? I feel like there's a bunch of bubbles on my body. "
Meng Haoran, who had never soaked in a carbonated hot spring, found the small bubbles on his body interesting.
"Drink water from the source. It's not completely soaked. There's no one at the source, and the temperature is high. Don't worry, drink it."
Wang Wei, who had drunk soda in the south of the city, introduced it to Meng Haoran.
Two hours later, it was time for lunch. Everyone went up to eat.
The dishes were laid out like works of art. Today, the Drunken Immortal Tavern was making Huaiyang dishes, the Huaiyang dishes of Li Yi's time.
It was a light knife that was usually used during state banquets. His knife skills were good.
Under normal circumstances, northerners were not used to it. There was little salt, so it was not satisfying.
Therefore, there were side dishes, salted vegetables, and even chili oil.
Thus, Princess Yongmu ate … braised pork, which had nothing to do with Huaiyang cuisine.
With a big piece of braised pork in her mouth, Princess Yongmu was full of happiness. She liked this taste very much.
"Li Lang, it's a little different from what you cooked," when Princess Yongmu was satisfied, she whispered to Li Yi.
"There's less cooking wine, but the time of braising is not a problem. There's also hawthorn." Li Yi tasted it and knew what was missing.
"Li Lang, the fish cooked with beer is delicious. Even the carp doesn't have the earthy taste after braising it." Princess Yongmu was now thinking about how to cook delicious dishes.
"In the future, we can use more hops. With the same unit of beer, the grain consumption will be less than other wines." while speaking, Li Yi was inspired.
The consumption of beer was far greater than that of liquor. Beer, like rice wine, could be used as seasoning.
At the very beginning, when there was no beer, people used cooking wine, which was also a kind of rice wine.
Later, people found that Chinese people were good at cooking with beer.
At present, the most expensive wine in the Tang dynasty was grape wine. For example, the wine that Li Bai drank was the grape wine.
After drinking more than 10 jin of grape wine, one would drink too much.
The alcohol content of grape wine was also not low. If one drank more than 10 jin of grape wine, one had to drink it from morning to night or from night to morning.
With the accumulation of alcohol, one would eventually get drunk.
While thinking, Li Yi suddenly kissed Princess Yongmu.
"Li Lang!" Princess Yongmu looked around and found everyone was eating with their heads lowered. Nobody raised their heads, so she felt relieved.
"I can make money now. Wen Tian Lan Xiang Pavilion will sell beer in the future."
Li Yi found a way to make money by making more beer. He didn't need to drink it himself in Zhuangzi anymore.
"Someone will buy it?" Princess Yongmu wasn't familiar with the business.
"It's cooked. It can preserve beer for more than 200 days. It's made from the wood of oak trees, just like the wine.
Oak trees will be a good thing in the future. Not only can it provide acorns, but it's also a good wood to store alcohol. "
Wine in wooden barrels, wine in pottery jars, and porcelain jars had appeared in China's history.
As Li Yi talked about beer barrels, maps of Southeast Asia and East Asia appeared in his mind, especially the lower latitudes.
He thought of something. When spring came, the fleet would set off and bring back rubber saplings and seeds.
Where should they be planted? This was a problem.
Northeast, North, Northwest? What a joke!
The most suitable place was Qiongzhou, followed by the Southwest barbarians.
In the past, the Southwest barbarians had trees that were hundreds of years old. In order to plant rubber, the locals knew that the trees could not be cut down while they were still alive.
In order to make money, they cut the bark of the trees. Without the bark, the nutrients couldn't be supplied, and the trees died. So they planted rubber.
Some people also drilled holes in the trees, stuffed pepper into the holes, and sealed them with mud.
The trees would still die with this method.
They knew about this, but they didn't care. They only had money in their eyes.
Rubber can't be planted there to avoid destroying the ecological environment.
Plant other East Asian and Southeast Asian places.
There was also the place of origin, Africa, Australia, and so on. Why did they have to harm the Tang dynasty?
As Li Yi pondered, he spoke in a language that everyone could understand. The palace maids and eunuchs took note.
"If you want to live a good life, you have to be strong in the military. And if you want to be strong in the military, other than personnel, you also need technology. "Li Yi taught his future wife.
"Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. Those who have technology will win the hearts of the people." Princess Yongmu was smart. She immediately understood where the foundation was. Technology!
With good technology, the yield per mu would increase. With good technology, harvesting would be convenient. With good technology, processing would be easy. Wait!
"In the current situation, any legal system is governed by people. It tests the situation of people.
Know what the people are thinking, know what the officials are thinking, and coordinate well. Only then will there be a prosperous era. "
Li Yi liked utopias, but he knew the drawbacks. Then, he had to think of a way to solve them.
Utopias were actually idealized communities. Then, as they developed, they realized that they couldn't do it.
Because of desire, utopias needed to be distributed. That wasn't a problem.
The problem was the nature of living things. Could beautiful women and handsome men be equally distributed?
Or a gong wife? Wouldn't that be returning to the era of monkeys? Evolution or degeneration?
