The little girl's county was not as rich as the capital.
If Li Yi hadn't gone there with Li Longji and the others to give good ideas to the local and surrounding areas, there would still be people who needed to rely on some wild vegetables.
When did the elm seed rice become a small browned biscuit on both sides? There was a fragrant smell.
"Others want to eat it. I don't like it. Elm seed rice should be eaten as snacks. That's how the farmers eat it."
Li Yi explained to his eldest disciple. Don't misunderstand. Your master isn't the kind of person who pretends.
"Ah!" The little girl suddenly understood and sat down obediently.
"Try one. It should taste good." Li Yi picked up a biscuit for his eldest disciple.
"Yes! There's so much oil. Of course it's delicious. "The little girl knew how difficult it was to obtain oil.
Oil could be extracted from soybeans. The people who found land to plant soybeans in the mountains and rivers couldn't bear to extract oil for themselves.
Li Longji sat not far away and felt embarrassed. He wanted to eat it.
If it didn't taste good, should he eat it or not? This was edible now, and it wasn't a big bowl. If one biscuit wasn't enough, she wouldn't eat a second one.
"It's fine to make it with white flour." Lu Huaishen had eaten it before. His salary was used to support his clansmen. Sometimes when there was no food at home, his wife would go to pick elm seed rice.
He once invited other imperial officials to eat at home, but there wasn't any meat dish.
The house he lived in was rented to others. Now that it belonged to him, the place was big.
"Next year when we have elm seed rice, we can eat white flour. We can't eat it this year. It's the last meal."
Li Longji knew he had made a big mistake. Why did he have to mention the highland barley?
"Xiao Yi, can we still eat it?" Bi Goo wanted to try the elm seed rice made with white flour.
Li Yi looked at Bi Goo in surprise and gave him a look.
"Oh, we can't eat it." Bi Goo woke up. Her Majesty just said that they couldn't eat it. If Li Yi said that they could, would it be considered offensive …
Today he refuted Her Majesty's words, but tomorrow he was referring to a deer as a horse?
Bi Goo felt a little regretful. If it rained, he could still find some.
"Let me calculate. Yes, Your Majesty is very kind. I'm afraid that the people won't have enough food, so I've allowed Yu Qian to stay for a few more days further north."
Li Yi also wanted to eat. He pretended to fiddle with his fingers a few times and gave such an answer.
Li Longji: "…"
He then smiled. "Yes, there are some further north. The further north it is, the colder it is, and the flowers bloom later. Send someone to fetch them."
"Third Brother is so smart." Li Yi helped Li Longji pick up a small biscuit.
Li Longji picked it up and took a bite. "Highland barley doesn't taste good. If it wasn't steamed before frying, it would be hard to swallow."
He was prepared to eat this one and not the second one. It really didn't taste good.
The ministers each took one, only to find that there were none left.
They looked at Li Yi and expressed their admiration once again. He had thought of everything, hadn't he?
"Master, there are small bumps on the elm leaves. If they're damaged, there are many small insects inside. Sometimes I want to eat an elm leaf, but I don't dare to eat it."
The little girl talked about what she had seen and heard. Elm money, elm leaves, and elm bark could all be eaten.
"The Elm Four Vein Cotton Aphid you mentioned is only one of the pests. There are many other pests, including the diseases of the trees themselves.
We need elm powder to be used as an adhesive. I'll write about it in the newspaper.
The diseases are better, and we can use physical methods to deal with them.
Physical light can eliminate some of the insects, and the rest have to be treated with medicine.
The only medicines we can use now are lime water, plant ash water, and wormwood water. The effect isn't very good, but they have natural enemies. "
Li Yi could make all kinds of pesticides, but they were produced in the laboratory. They couldn't be industrialized.
"So it's aphids. They're all roadside planters who specialize in planting elm trees. They take good care of them. Sometimes I also need to buy them for medicine."
After the little girl learned it, she waited for her master to write it out and print it in the newspaper. She just needed to read it once.
A few small plates were brought up, and on top of them were mulberries.
When Yao Chong saw the mulberries, he suddenly said to the little girl, "Qing Dai, let me test you. What is this? How many effects does it have? "
Those who were able to become prime ministers would have read some medical books. Hence, there was a saying, 'If you're not a prime minister, you're a good doctor'.
The little girl turned her head to look at her master. Li Yi nodded his head, "You're only allowed to answer, you're not allowed to ask questions."
"I know, master." The little girl knew how to deal with it.
"Grandpa Yao, it's like this. This is called Mulberry. There is a saying in this dynasty: Benefits the five internal organs, joint pain, calms the soul, calms the mind … …
Shennong's Herbal Classic: Mulberry is formed from the essence of mulberries. Its taste is sweet, and its breath is cold … …
Lei Gong's Medicinal Properties: Mulberry opens and closes the orifices, benefits the blood vessels, calms the mind, calms the mind, blackens the beard and hair, improves the eyes and ears.
The original book: Mulberry, hand, foot, Shaoyin, Taiyin Blood.
It's written in the Herbal Classic: Sweet, cool. Foot, Shaoyin Meridian Blood … … "
The little girl blabbered on, reciting more than thirty books in one breath about the corresponding symptoms of mulberries, their processing, and their medicinal properties.
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and revealed a sad expression, "There should be more. Master wrote it in the medical books. I'm too stupid and have let you down."
Everyone at the table, except for Li Yi, Princess Yongmu, and Xiao Lan, were dumbfounded.
This wasn't memorizing a section of a book. She was asking about something and finding the description of that thing from different books.
Many people claimed to have photographic memory, but when they heard the little girl's words, they felt that they were lacking.
"Very good! Let's eat. "Li Yi patted his eldest disciple's head and picked up braised ribbonfish for her.
Ribbonfish had been frozen for too long, so it wasn't suitable for steaming.
"Thank you, master!" The little girl was happy again. She liked to eat ribbonfish.
Most importantly, she felt that her master didn't blame her for having a bad memory. She seemed to have an impression of a few words, but she couldn't remember them. After eating, she went back to look for them again. This time, she looked at them twice.
Yao Chong gave Li Yi a grateful look. "Thank you! Thank you for emphasizing that you're not allowed to ask questions. "
Li Yi nodded slightly with a hint of pride in his expression. "This disciple of mine isn't outstanding in any way. She's just kind-hearted, knowledgeable, and talented in practical operations. The main thing is that she's too young and can't compare to those old men who have more experience.
She's only nine years old after the New Year. She's not very useful. Aiya, just thinking about it makes me worried! "
Yao Chong actually understood. She took a deep breath and then another deep breath. "Don't be angry. Eat. If you don't pay for the meal, you'll be eating until the Li Family Zhuangzi becomes poor."
"Master, master, I said I was dreaming! I dreamed that master wrote down which place was suitable for planting medicinal herbs or raising animals and insects for medicinal herbs.
Then we had money, so we sent people to deal with it. After a few years, there were many medicinal herbs in the Tang dynasty. "
The little girl swallowed a mouthful of ribbonfish and raised her head to look at Li Yi.
"Okay, I'll write it down. I have money, so I'll set up a fund to be responsible for the planting and raising of medicinal herbs in various regions.
I've already thought of the name of the fund. It'll be called the Tang dynasty's Qing Dai Medical Fund.
Qing dai can not only be used to draw eyebrows, but it can also be used to draw the heart. When Qing dai enters the water, it'll be as blue as the sea and the sky. "
Li Yi followed the words of his eldest disciple. Wasn't it just spending money? For this disciple, it was worth it!
"Master, I said I was dreaming." The little girl blinked her big eyes.
"Then your dream has come true. If you don't believe me, you can ask these grandfathers. They'll mobilize the power of the government to help you. "
Li Yi said with a smile as he looked around.
