Although the wild boars were squealing from being smashed, their thick skin and thick flesh were not for show. Although the sweet potatoes were powerful when smashed from a high place, they could not hurt the wild boars, especially the strong male wild boars. At most, they would feel a sharp pain and would not really be hurt.
When these male wild boars saw that it was delicious, they all scrambled to find food. They did not care that they were attacked at all and ate very happily.
There were several baskets of sweet potatoes, which was quite a lot. However, it did not take long for these imperial grandchildren to throw all of them away. Some of the sweet potatoes were even thrown to the female wild boars and the baby wild boars. However, the baby wild boars were too small. Other than drinking milk, they could not eat food like sweet potatoes. They still needed to wait for a few more days before they could eat all kinds of food.
After throwing the sweet potatoes, everyone gradually lost interest. They continued to walk forward aimlessly, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the valley. From time to time, they could see pheasants suddenly fly up, and they could also see a hare suddenly jump out of the grass. If one was not prepared, they would be startled.
"This valley doesn't look big, but there are a lot of wild rabbits in it! One jumps out after a while. There are also pheasants, one flies out after a while. There are also thirty to fifty wild boars! "
"More or less. The space is limited, so we can only raise these. These are the most common dishes in restaurants. Although tigers are good, they are not easy to raise!"
"Assistant Minister Li raises so many wild boars, pheasants, and wild rabbits. Is he going to eat them alone or sell them?"
"It depends on the situation! If there are more in the future, we can sell some. For the time being, we don't even have enough to eat! "
"It's better not to sell them. If there are more in the future and we can't finish them, we can come and help."
"That's good. I'm not a stingy person. Just take as much as you want."
Everyone discussed with each other.
"After staying in the capital for too long, I feel bored. I really want to go out for a walk!"
Ang Lee suddenly said.
"Assistant Minister Li, where do you want to go to relax?"
"In the north. I want to go to the north. A few days ago, General Guo Ziyi came to me and said that the Horse Gang there was quite fierce before. After being deterred by the troops of the Tang dynasty, they are much better now. However, they could not wipe out all the Horse Gang, which made General Guo very angry."
Ang Lee said.
"It's not relaxing! Assistant Minister Li is going to the north to fight, but a small group of Horse Gang is not easy to deal with. General Guo is quite capable. Even if Assistant Minister Li goes, I'm afraid he can't solve this problem in a short time. It's better not to go. I heard that the north is very dangerous. Those Horse Gang kill people without batting an eye. "
Ang Lee said with a smile, "It's okay. I just want to go there and have a look. It won't take more than a month. My main purpose is to relax and see the different scenery. Wiping out the Horse Gang is just a side job. Even if I can't finish it, I don't care. Besides, General Guo always complains that the weapons provided to the soldiers by the imperial court are not very useful and wants me to develop better weapons. If I don't go to the north, how can I know what weapons the ordinary soldiers lack the most? Only when I know what weapons the soldiers need can I make targeted research!"
Many practical weapons were products that had been tested in actual combat. If they were not tested in actual combat, it would be useless no matter how good the design was, because when it was used, the flaws in the design would be discovered. The theoretical situation might not be completely consistent with the reality. In other words, if Ang Lee went to the north to see the situation of the soldiers with his own eyes, he might have a better idea and develop more practical weapons for the army.
"To be honest, I also want to go to the north to have a look, but I'm afraid that Imperial Grandfather won't let me. The grasslands and deserts in the north are very spectacular. It must be very beautiful. I really haven't been there before!"
Li Yu's face was full of expectation. It seemed that he really wanted to go to the north to have a look. The other Imperial Grandsons also had the same idea. After all, it was common for many young people to like to travel and enjoy the scenery. If they were always confined to a small place, it would drive them crazy.
However, not everyone could go to distant places as they wished. Some people were born noble and their safety was very important. If they went out casually and something happened, it would be troublesome. Therefore, they would definitely be restricted.
"Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon, it's better if you don't go! If you want to go, don't choose to go with me. It's okay for us to go hunting near the capital. If we go to such a far place in the north, it will cause gossip. "
Ang Lee opened his mouth and said.
Shuofang was an important military town in the north with 70,000 to 80,000 elite soldiers. If an Imperial Grandson went to such a place casually, if someone spread rumors that he was going to rebel, it would be impossible for him to clear his name even if he had a hundred mouths. Therefore, it was better not to go. Even if he wanted to relax, he could not go with Ang Lee, so as not to implicate Ang Lee.
"Alas, the Tang dynasty is so big, but we can only stay in the capital. It's so depressing. I really want to go out and have fun!"
Li Yu sighed.
It was said that it was good to be an aristocrat, but aristocrats also had places where they were not free. That was, they needed a lot of bodyguards to go out. Moreover, they could not go to many places and could only stay in a few fixed places.
In fact, it was better for men, but worse for women. Their range of activities was much smaller than that of men. Most of the time, they could only stay at home. Occasionally, they could not go too far when they went out. It was simply wishful thinking to travel far away.
Everyone loved to travel. If they always stayed in a fixed place, it would indeed be very depressing. Only when they went to many different places and met many different people could they be happier and have an inexplicable sense of accomplishment. It could make them feel comfortable. When they came back, they could boast to others about what they had seen and what new things they had seen. Thus, they would have a great sense of accomplishment again.
"Don't be depressed. After this trip, it's time for lunch. What do you want to eat at noon?"
Ang Lee asked.
"I want to eat game. Is that okay?"
"Roast suckling pig is good. It would be better if it was a fresh wild boar."
"Forget it! The baby wild boar hasn't grown up yet. It's too cruel! "
"What's the point of being cruel when eating meat? Didn't Assistant Minister Li raise so many wild boars to eat meat?"
Several imperial grandsons had some disputes about eating.
Seeing this, Ang Lee said, "Catch a baby wild boar and a few big hares. That's more or less enough."
"Roast suckling pig? That's great. It's the best. The last time I had roast suckling pig was more than a month ago. I've been wanting to eat it for a long time."
"Roast suckling pig? Why haven't I eaten it before? "
"A baby wild boar only weighs a few kilograms. Is it really enough for the few of us?"
"Why don't we roast two?"
Li An shook his head and said, "The roast suckling pig is too greasy, and we can't eat too much. One is enough. Also, aren't there wild rabbits? That's enough. One is enough. Men, go catch a small wild boar and a few big wild rabbits."
One baby wild boar was naturally not enough. However, the breeding of wild boars had just begun and there weren't many of them at the moment. Ang Lee would feel a little heartache even if he ate one, let alone two. Moreover, it was enough to know that they could taste it. They didn't need to be full. If they were full, they would feel that the taste wasn't good enough.
In the future, there was a term called hunger marketing. It meant that customers couldn't be too full. Otherwise, once the customers were satisfied, they would gradually lose interest. In that case, they wouldn't take the product seriously.
The ultimate purpose of hunger marketing was not only to raise the price, but also to generate high additional value for the brand. Thus, the brand would establish a high value image.
It was said that the unobtainable was the best. The more unobtainable a good thing was, the more it would arouse people's interest. This was the soul of hunger marketing.
There was a plate of braised pork on the plate in front of him. It smelled very fragrant. If he ate a mouthful, he would be more satisfied. However, if he ate a whole plate of several kilograms, he would feel very sick in his heart. Once he was really hurt, he would never eat it again. He wouldn't even be willing to eat this kind of food for the rest of his life.
The food that Ang Lee hated to eat the most in his previous life was instant noodles and mooncakes. The reason was that he usually ate too much. When it came to festivals, he would eat mooncakes every day and eat mooncakes for every meal. When he heard the name of mooncakes, he would feel disgusted. He really didn't want to eat it again for the rest of his life. It was the same with instant noodles. Because he was too lazy and didn't want to cook himself, he bought a lot of instant noodles and kept eating instant noodles for a few months. Finally, he was completely sick of this delicacy and didn't want to eat it anymore.
Some delicacies that were almost impossible to eat had always been Ang Lee's favorite food. For example, some very expensive pastries. Ang Lee only ate them a few times a year. Every time he ate them, he enjoyed it very much and wanted to eat more. Unfortunately, he didn't have enough money in his pocket, so he could only eat a little. Thus, he would always treat this kind of pastry as a delicacy.
Humans were just that cheap. They always liked things they couldn't get. If that was the case for food, there was no need to mention anything else. This created an opportunity for some people to invent hunger marketing. They purposely made the customers feel that the food in this restaurant was delicious. They even purposely made the food fluffy so that the customers would mistakenly think that they had eaten a lot, when in fact, they hadn't eaten much.
However, in many cases, hunger marketing wasn't omnipotent. It also had its disadvantages. For example, it would cause customers to leave and choose other brands' products. It would also hurt the brand's image. In addition, if it was exposed, it would make the customers feel disgusted.
For example, some real estate that sold houses not only set the price of the real estate very high, but also marked that all the good houses and floors were sold. Only some of the bad houses were left for people who needed them to buy. This naturally caused a lot of people to feel disgusted. If the good houses were sold out, then what was there to buy? When the customers were angry, they wouldn't buy it directly.
Therefore, when carrying out hunger marketing, it must be considered carefully. You must not lose the bait and lose the bait.
Ang Lee really wasn't doing hunger marketing this time. After all, Ang Lee was treating, and he wouldn't accept money from the royal grandchildren. The main reason was that there were too few wild boars in the farm, and they hadn't fully bred yet.
In addition, when the number of wild boars here increased in the future, they would try to kill as many male wild boars as possible. As for the female wild boars, they had to keep the cubs to maintain a large number of wild boars in this valley.
Wild boars were very ferocious animals. They could kill a lion when they were angry, and a female wild boar that protected her cubs was even more terrifying. If someone dared to hurt the young wild boar, the female wild boar would risk her life to protect the young wild boar. Therefore, it would take a lot of effort to catch a young wild boar in the valley. It wasn't easy to catch a young wild boar.
However, wild boars were animals after all, and their IQ was very low. As long as a little trick was used, the young wild boar could be caught. When the female wild boar reacted, it was too late.
The best way was to feed the female wild boar. When the female wild boar was eating, it was the time when its vigilance was the lowest. At this time, if the female wild boar wanted to quietly take the young wild boar away, it would be too late for the female wild boar to stop it.
Ang Lee's servant used this method. First, feed the female wild boar with delicious food. When the female wild boar relaxed its vigilance, then the other person quietly took the young wild boar from behind and even covered the young wild boar's mouth. In this way, the female wild boar couldn't hear the sound, and naturally, it wouldn't be angry.
However, in this case, the cooperation of the two people must be very tacit. The first person must be very good at diverting the female wild boar's attention. Not only did he have to feed the female wild boar, but he also had to make sounds from time to time to attract the female wild boar's attention. After the second person succeeded, the first person had to hold the female wild boar for a while, and then they could leave. Obviously, there were risks. After all, once the female wild boar was not fooled and launched an attack, these two people had a certain possibility of injury. In addition, if there were a few male wild boars hidden nearby, it would be more troublesome. Therefore, it must be a bold person to do this job.
The servants soon succeeded. They had fooled domestic pigs in this way before, but they didn't expect it to be effective on wild boars as well. They quietly took a live young wild boar away from the female wild boar, and the female wild boar didn't realize it. Perhaps the female wild boar's intelligence was too low, and it actually didn't realize that it was missing a child.
After the young wild boar was caught, its stomach was quickly cut open. This little life hadn't been in this world for long, and it was slaughtered just like that. It seemed very cruel, but in order to eat the delicious roast pig, they couldn't care less. How could too kind people fill their stomachs and eat the best delicacies?
There were a lot of wild rabbits, and it didn't take long for them to catch a lot. There were seven or eight small wild rabbits. A few female rabbits were released, and all the male rabbits were slaughtered.
"Only Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon and I have eaten roast pig here. I still have a lot to say about this famous dish, roast pig. I must let you know about this dish, so that when you eat it, it will be more delicious."
Ang Lee looked at the imperial grandchildren and said.
