Li Yi excused himself and went to deal with the big black fish first.
Empress Wang didn't know whether to ask for money or things.
Tubo was used to exchange for soy sauce, fermented bean curd, stinky tofu, tea eggs, which included Suowu and cloud beads.
Cloud beads were Tian beads, and Tubo beads were Tian beads. One Tian bead could be exchanged for a good horse.
She liked gold and yak leather as much as she did.
Li Longji found a place to sit down and drink tea. He drank green tea, the kind that was directly brewed.
When the new tea was released this year, Li Yi went to buy it and then came back to make it himself according to the information. It was quite difficult, but he finally learned it.
He would practice it again next year. It was not good to drink too much black tea.
He didn't have any oil in his stomach. If he drank too much fermented black or black tea, he would fall sick.
Where there were many cows and sheep, there was little vegetables and meat. Fermented tea was what he needed the most.
They didn't know how to make tea locally and imported it from the Tang dynasty. They didn't have the foreign exchange of the Tang dynasty and could only use their own things to exchange.
There were markets and caravans to restrict the smuggling of things.
Therefore, they targeted the Tang dynasty and had a trade deficit every year. Their life was very difficult.
They didn't know how to issue national bonds or attract foreign investment. They could only find trouble, fight, rob, reconcile, and fight again …
Li Longji didn't know what trade deficit or surplus was. He only knew that the tea was delicious.
"How much of this kind of tea does Zhuangzi have?" Li Chengqi smacked his lips. The bitter aftertaste of the green tea was even sweeter. He asked the palace maid Taohong.
Taohong showed a troubled expression. She should tell King Song, but she had to keep Zhuangzi's secret.
"Brother, you don't have to be like this. Ask Brother Yi for some." Li Longji helped to resolve the situation.
"I'm the one who put Taohong in a difficult position." Li Chengqi remembered that Brother Yi was good to the palace maids and eunuchs. If the palace maid said it, it would be a betrayal.
Taohong shook her head, indicating that it was fine. Tears almost fell from her eyes.
When Li Yi finished dealing with the big black fish, noon arrived.
Everyone went to the canteen. The guards didn't hide in the dark and followed them to eat.
The weather was hot, so there weren't many hot steamed rice and steamed buns. Most of the steamed noodles and sorghum rice.
The dishes changed as well.
Wild vegetable dipping sauce, braised pork, soy sauce chicken giblets, salted beans, tofu with shallots, bean sprouts, dried tofu with scallion oil, pickled vegetables with pork skin, cucumber strips with garlic paste, and other cold dishes.
Naturally, there was no lack of red braised pork, steamed fish, and a few other hot dishes.
Some people could eat hot dishes and fatty meat, stuffing them into their mouths.
There was egg sauce and minced meat at the noodles.
Li Chengqi didn't want to comment. A Zhuangzi was providing free meals to the villagers. He even changed the dishes according to the season.
"What is this?" Empress Wang saw something. Someone was guarding it.
If the farmer wanted to eat, the man would use a bamboo chip with many small holes to scrape. With each scrape, a lot of noodle like things would come out.
The person in charge of shaving the cold jelly knew that they were the nobles of Dongzhu, so he hurriedly replied, "Cold jelly made from beans, mixed with vinegar, soy sauce, garlic sauce, and sesame paste. It's cool and delicious."
"I want … a little. I want to eat other dishes." Empress Wang wanted to try.
She had eaten beans before. In the past, she used to fry them with meat or boil them with some salt.
Now, she fried them with soybean oil and added some salt.
But she didn't know that they could be made into noodles. She recalled carefully and seemed to have eaten something similar. It was said that they were made from buckwheat.
She waited for a while and went to get other dishes. When she came back, she sat down and asked Li Yi, "Uncle, I seem to have seen cold jelly somewhere."
"Yes, it's made from buckwheat. After boiling, it will come out cold. Sister-in-law, have you eaten it when taking medicine? I have a record of the invaluable prescription. "
Li Yi spoke very fluently. He didn't need to check the information and had already memorized it.
At that time, he studied western medicine, so he would read books on traditional Chinese medicine. Every time there were epidemics, traditional Chinese medicine would jump out first to help resist.
And it was effective, so he couldn't help but admire it.
Then, traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine would work together. They were unified instead of opposing each other.
Li Yi also memorized all kinds of compendium, various herbs, various prescriptions, and all kinds of preparations.
"Is it medicine?" Empress Wang tried to recall and shook her head. She couldn't remember.
"Yes, medicine. The one I'm eating now is made from buckwheat beans. In fact, it can be made from many kinds of crops." Li Yi didn't hide.
"Good. In your uncle's Zhuangzi, you can always find new food. It's something you can't ask for outside. You can take whatever you want." Empress Wang praised and stretched out her hand.
Li Yi didn't move, and then he tied his hair again.
Li Longji ate a cucumber that didn't have much water and chewed, "Brother Yi, why is this cucumber so dry?"
"Marinate it with salt and then press it with a big stone to squeeze out the water. The texture is different. It's fun to make another dish." Li Yi explained the process.
"When will Tubo attack?" Li Longji asked casually.
"At the end of August. It's going to snow this year. Tubo will attack." Li Yi also answered casually.
Li Longji and the other two looked at Li Yi together.
Is the time so specific? At the end of August, Tubo will snow this year, and then attack?
"Third brother, don't worry. They will be defeated as soon as they attack. They don't even need the main forces of the Tang dynasty. If the main forces want to be deployed, they can attack. I have good things. "
Li Yi decided to change history. Why was it okay to just defend? Why couldn't they attack? Even if it was snowing.
He put down his chopsticks and ran away.
When he returned to his courtyard, he opened the system and exchanged.
Binoculars, binoculars, eight times, one for ten hours. The price was the same as the chili noodles.
He hung it around his neck and ran to the canteen.
"This thing is called binoculars. I only have these now. Take eight and leave two for me. One for me, and the other for the captain on duty."
Li Yi said to the three of them. The binoculars were placed on the table. He didn't explain how he got them and just said that he had them now.
While the three of them were puzzled, he began to explain how to use it. He opened the cover, and then put the small end to the eyes and the big end to another place.
"Oh my god." Li Chengqi leaned back and hit the wall. He took the binoculars and was shocked.
Seeing his reaction, Li Longji and Empress Wang prepared themselves mentally and then picked up the binoculars according to the instructions.
"Why is it so close?" Empress Wang was shocked. She obviously didn't prepare well.
Li Longji's shoulders also trembled, but he soon returned to normal.
Li Yi was very puzzled. When he was a child, his first binoculars were a toy. They didn't have any reaction when he used them.
Moreover, he liked to use them when he used them. Things that were close would be far away.
Li Longji stood up and walked out with the binoculars. He found a relatively high place and stood on it to look around.
After a while, he came back. "Brother Yi, this thing …"
"There are only ten of them now. I want to keep two. You guys find a way to send them to the generals at the front. Once you find that they are going to be captured, destroy them first."
Li Yi said to Li Longji and Li Chengqi.
Li Longji sat down and put the binoculars back into the box. He didn't ask how he got them, nor did he ask for more.
This was because Li Yi said last time that he couldn't talk about natural or man-made disasters. It was the wrath of the heavens.
Thinking of the wrath of the heavens, he asked, "Brother Yi, will this thing and Tubo reduce one's lifespan?"
Li Yi nodded honestly. It was the price of one's lifespan.
Li Longji stared at Li Yi. After a few breaths, he exhaled. "Brother Yi, you said that if a woman doesn't have her period, how long will she know? Do you need to check her pulse? "
Li Yi: "…"
He was stunned. Third Brother, you changed the topic so fast that I was caught off guard.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Empress Wang. Empress Wang was calm and nodded vigorously, meaning: Yes, it's me.
"Now is fine. Wait for me." Li Yi said and ran away again.
