Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 997 Interesting Snacks

The new year came in a blink of an eye, and what was different from the past was that this year's new year was spent in the palace.Of course, it is mainly from the first to the fourth grade of junior high school.Not to mention sparring and games in the huge palace, even horse racing is fine.

However, the effect of horse racing is probably not as good as that of the palace in Chang'an.Not to mention horse racing, horse racing is fine!

"Actually, that's how it is..." Cao Cao took a sip of his tea, "It's boring to play in another place for four days."

There are not many opportunities to drink tea this year, there is no way, her situation is somewhat similar to that of Liu Xie.Because Liu Xie is pregnant, she needs to reduce her intake of alcohol and caffeine.Because she is breastfeeding, she should also reduce the intake of these things.

"How about going to a hot spring resort tomorrow?" Wang Yong suggested.

"Don't you go there every year?" Cao Cao sighed, "But at least it's much better than Zhuangzi...by the way, isn't that ice sculpture world open?"

"The cost is a bit high, and there have been a lot of things in the past two years, so I didn't do it." Xun Yu replied, Wang Yong seemed to intend to, but this proposal was rejected by her.

As the chief financial officer of the family, if she dismissed the project, Cao Cao would not dare to refute.

"Speaking of which..." Guan Yu suddenly asked, "There really isn't any place that needs to be conquered?"

"Of course!" Cao Cao replied after hearing the words, "There are so many Barbarians, Di, Rong and Barbarians around Huaxia, it is almost endless to fight. The problem is that after so many years of high-intensity battles, it will take at least two to three years to recuperate. ?”

"In other words, in two to three years, unless the opponent takes the initiative to attack, we have to fight back. Otherwise, the focus of finances must be tilted towards the people's livelihood, and the legions of all parties may even need to cut some soldiers. The reduced soldiers will be formed into a construction corps to build bridges and pave roads in local areas..." Wang Yong added.

"Speaking of which, planning for the Grand Canal running through Ji County and Wu County has already begun!" Liu Xie seemed to have remembered something, "It will take more than half a year just for planning, and when the time comes to start construction year by year, at least it will consume financial resources every year. More than [-]% of the expenses..."

"However, the effect of the completion of the construction cannot be ignored." Cao Cao replied, "Compared to the sea, the inland river is safer, and it can also take care of the economy on both sides of the river. Ships from the Yellow River can also enter the Yangtze River through the canal. Finally, with the help of sea transportation, the north and south will be completely connected."

The front line needs supplies, and the rear can be quickly transported there with the help of the Grand Canal.Similarly, when the south needs army reinforcements, large troops can also quickly go south through the canal.Large warships can transport 500 people at one go, and only need to prepare ten ships to transport [-] elite soldiers to the south to help suppress bandits and stabilize the place.

"It's not too much trouble if we go by sea..." Guan Yu couldn't figure it out.

"Deducting the problem of the Grand Canal, there is also the development of the south of the Yangtze River, and the three major projects of connecting Bashu at the same time. If conditions permit, we will even connect Jiaozhou and Bashu, so that the communication between various places will be much more convenient." Wang Yong said slowly, " These require huge manpower and material resources, but also, a large number of workshops, workers, and even soldiers will benefit from this. They also need to consume, and the result is that the entire economy of the Han Dynasty will be revitalized, just like the previous sunshine breakfast Like engineering."

Relying on the sunshine breakfast has indeed enabled many refugees to make a living, and the result is the rapid prosperity and stability of Yanzhou and Yuzhou.Later, with the improvement of life, the business declined, but the refugees who learned the craft also began to be self-reliant.

At the same time, Sunshine Breakfast is still very popular.Get up early, spend one or two pennies, buy one or two whole wheat steamed buns, and pour a few sips of boiling water. This is where the energy for the morning begins.

Many people's lives have improved, and they will still eat breakfast here, at most, they will buy more expensive ones.Eating breakfast here is no longer a matter of taste, but a matter of feelings.People who have been favored know how to be grateful. It used to be Sunshine Breakfast, which supported them when they were at their worst.Now that conditions permit, it is their turn to come back to support the operation of Sunshine Breakfast.

"Do you really want to disarm?" As a soldier, neither Guan Yu nor Xiahou Dun wanted to see disarmament.

"Not only is it necessary to disarm the army, but the generals who are not capable enough in the army may also be turned into officers of the construction army." Cao Cao, a general, did not have much thought about this, "Now counting the Yizhou Army, the Jiaozhou Army, and the Jingzhou Army In other words... All the legions add up to more than 20 soldiers, and even more auxiliary soldiers. Among them, [-] soldiers are almost cumbersome, and their combat power is not high. The army in Jiaozhou has many barbarians and Yue people exist……"

"So..." Xiahou Dun and Guan Yu breathed a sigh of relief, they understood that the disarmament was mainly aimed at these three legions.Of course, it may also include troops under Sun Quan's command.

"But in the end it is a reduction of 30, so it is naturally the survival of the fittest. The excellent ones are retained, and the unqualified ones can be transferred to the construction army, and they can also choose to retire. The combat soldiers will be cut by 40, and the auxiliary soldiers will be cut by 20. The 20 will eventually retain about [-]. , into the Construction Corps. The other [-], as immigrants, were transferred to live in Youzhou and Bingzhou.”

"Pinghu Lue" has been submitted by Jia Xu, and Sangong has entered the discussion stage.With the appearance of coal stoves, coals, kangs, ground dragons, down jackets and cotton-padded clothes, it is indeed possible to try in Youzhou or Bingzhou to let the people there get used to it.If it is easy to use, then continue to advance northward and erode the range of activities of the barbarians a little bit.

"Speaking of which, you are really..." Xun Yu complained angrily, "Have a good Chinese New Year, can you stop talking about business?"

"Having said that, but..." Guan Yu shrugged, "These two days are really boring."

"Indeed, if you continue to enjoy yourself like this, you'll feel like you're going to be useless." Xiahou Dun sighed.

"At this time..." Xun Yu looked at Wang Yong, "Shouldn't we have some snacks that will keep us from being bored?"

"You said, then I will do it! Eat this before dinner, are you sure?" Wang Yong suddenly thought of something.

"Sure!" As a result, the girls answered almost immediately, it seemed that they were indeed a little too busy.

He had to roll up his sleeves and run to the imperial dining room.Since they were special chefs in the imperial dining room during the Chinese New Year, Wang Yong asked them to go back to rest.Those who stayed were the help cooks from Wangjiazhuang, and at the same time, there were more than [-] eunuchs who knew cooking skills, who stayed here as handymen and help cooks when necessary.

"I need beef, flour, and shark's fin... can I prepare it?" Wang Yong walked in and asked under everyone's attention, "It seems that I need a snack before dinner."

"What kind of flour do you need for flour?" Hearing this, the kitchen assistant stepped forward to ask.

"Medium gluten is fine!" Wang Yong replied, "By the way, by the way, prepare whipped cream, eggs... and olive oil."

It is said that the best oil for frying is sunflower oil, and olive oil is only No.6.Rapeseed oil with high oleic acid was fifth, but considering health issues, Wang Yong finally chose olive oil.

"You want to eat without being boring, right?" Wang Yong took off his coat, and then put on an apron, "Then let you have fun!"
