Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 73 Pork is also fragrant
Chapter 075

The smell of pork is too strong, mainly because the pigs are not castrated.While walking, Ran Ming selflessly told Wang Meng all the precautions for castrating pigs, fattening them, and feeding cow dung to pigs, pig dung to fish, and maggots to chickens.

Ran Ming's novel words made Wang Meng feel as if he was listening to heavenly scriptures. These methods were simply beyond Wang Meng's comprehension.Fortunately, Wang Meng is also a more pragmatic virtuous minister in history. He believes that as long as Ran Ming's method can be successful, it will be a great thing for the people and the interests of the people.

Ran Ming said again: "Actually, we Han people are weak mainly because we don't have meat to eat, while those barbarians drink milk and mare's milk and eat beef and mutton every day. Because meat is rich in nutrition, their bodies are strong and they are taller than others." We are taller and stronger than us, and if we fight alone, the Han people generally cannot defeat the barbarians!"

Wang Meng said: "There is no other way. We Han people live in too much hardship. We can't even eat enough. How can we eat meat?" "It's all over now!"

Ran Ming said with a relaxed smile: "As long as we follow the isolated method and start chain breeding in Qingzhou, it will not only solve the problem of insufficient land for farming, but also increase a lot of meat for the people of Qingzhou! As long as there is enough meat, the people of Wei State The body will also become stronger. According to the current physical fitness of the Qingzhou Army, there will be no soldiers among the Han soldiers who can be Modao warriors. The Modao and heavy armor are too heavy, and they simply cannot afford it!"

Wang Meng said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely carry out breeding in the counties and counties of Qingzhou, encourage the people to use cow dung to raise pigs, pig dung to raise fish, pond mud to fertilize fields, build water conservancy, encourage people to reclaim wasteland, and promote food cultivation."

Ran Ming nodded. He knew that Wang Meng was a practical person, and he was not worried that his policies would not be implemented.

Ran Ming also said: "There are many Hu people in Qingzhou now, accounting for more than [-] people. Now they are all lonely people. I have to treat them equally and respect their living habits and national etiquette. If they can mobilize their work Enthusiasm is a great help to the recovery and construction of our Qingzhou, and Gu also found that the current road conditions in our Qingzhou are very poor, and road construction is a big problem!"

Wang Meng wrote down Ran Ming's job description!Moreover, he also proposed that the policy of encouraging wasteland reclamation implemented by Ran Ming (the wasteland reclaimed will be owned by individuals, tax-free for one year, tax for two and a half years, and one bucket of grain per mu after three years) has stimulated a large number of people to reclaim wasteland. Yanzhou, Jizhou, Yuzhou and Xuzhou near Qingzhou all had a large influx of people.

"Long years of war! The people think of peace! The influx of refugees is a good thing!" Ran Ming said: "I am not afraid of increasing the population. There are a lot of people who came here. This is a good thing. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Jin Dynasty, there were 33 households in Qingzhou according to statistics. , a population of more than 150 million, and now it is less than half. If the 25 refugees I brought are not included, there are only more than 100 people in Qingzhou, and the land in Qingzhou can still support more than [-] million people. We must make proper resettlement, establish household registration, and organize people to be strong. If there is not enough land to distribute, we should not move the land of the family for the time being, but adopt a chain breeding industry, which can solve the employment of tens of thousands of people. When we have the strength, we will Conquer Jizhou in the north, conquer Yanzhou in the west, and expand the territory!"

Soon, the two came to Chu Palace again!Ran Ming took Wang Meng directly to the kitchen.

Wang Meng hesitated and said: "Your Highness, a gentleman, stay away from the kitchen!"

"A gentleman stays away from the kitchen, just saying that he can't bear to see the tragic scene of killing in the kitchen." Ran Ming explained, "The so-called "gentleman stays away from the kitchen" is just talking about a mental state that can't bear to kill. Since I joined the army, I have personally killed There are also hundreds of enemies, and the indirect killings are as high as tens of thousands. Gu has never had the mentality of not being able to bear to kill. For Gu, benevolence will only be done to his own people. They are indiscriminate in the Central Plains and wantonly slaughtered our Han people. I have never talked about benevolence and righteousness to us, and I will not be reasonable to them. They fight and kill me, and I will scare them to the bone!"

With Ran Ming's explanation, Wang Meng did not follow Ran Ming into the kitchen!He needed to digest the work instructions that Ran Ming gave him, so Wang Meng entered Ran Ming's foreign affairs room under the leadership of an attendant, and recorded the key points of work that Ran Ming said in it.

Ran Ming looked at the servants who ran all over the place and waved them up.He started to cook the very famous pork dish "Dongpo Pork!" Ran Ming will also run a big hotel in the future. He knows a little bit about cooking. Although he is not a professional chef, his craftsmanship is definitely not professional in this era. Chefs are comparable.

Ran Ming used a knife to boil the best pork belly in clear water. This step was called boiling water to remove the fishy smell. When the water was boiled, he took out the meat and cut it into cubes, then put green onion, ginger and star anise in the pot.Take salt.Sugar, pour in soy sauce and meat pieces, add water to blunt, then remove the boiling oil, put the meat pieces in a bowl and steam them, so that Dongpo pork is ready when it comes out of the pan! (The method is the same for red meat, add tofu marinade).

When Ran Ming just made it, before he took it out of the kitchen, he heard a scream, "Ah, what is it, it smells so good!"

Suddenly Ran Ming only felt a figure flash in front of his eyes, but before he saw who it was, the plate in his hand flew away easily. Ran Ming fixed his eyes, and it turned out to be Liu Wei who had gone and returned. The image is eaten up.While eating, he shouted: "It's delicious, fat but not greasy, tender and delicious!"

Seeing Ran Ming's exaggerated and surprised expression, Liu Mi Sihao didn't feel that his behavior was inappropriate, but instead asked: "What kind of meat is this, could it be?"

"Yes, it's pork!"

Liu Mo said: "Hey, I have eaten pork before, but why is it not so delicious?"

"What! You used to eat it often?" Ran Ming looked at Liu Mo's figure, which could definitely be called a skinny beauty, and muttered in his heart, "I eat pork, and I eat it often, and I'm so skinny. I'm so sorry for that dead pig!"

At this time, Wang Meng also came out. Seeing Liu Liumai who was eating a lot, he smiled helplessly: "Your Highness, I understand, this pork is definitely delicious!"

Under the watchful eyes of Wang Meng and Ran Ming, Liu Wei actually ate nearly a catty of Dongpo meat into his stomach.Ran Ming patted his forehead and said: "Fortunately, we have prepared for it, there are still inside!"

Said Shen, he brought out another plate of golden pork slices, Ran Ming said: "Sir, you pay for this plate of twice-cooked pork!"

Now it's time for dinner, Wang Meng didn't eat much at noon, he followed Ran Ming to the pasture outside the city, and after cleaning up so many materials, he was so hungry that he was already so hungry, he also picked up his chopsticks and ate until he was hungry More than a catty of twice-cooked meat goes into the stomach!Wang Meng sighed after eating: "This is really delicious in the world!"

Ran Ming picked up another jar. The mouth of the jar was sealed with a cork and wax was sealed on it.Wang Meng asked in puzzlement, "What is this?"

Ran Ming said: "This is called canned meat!"

"Why is this canned meat sealed with wax!" Wang Meng said strangely.

But Ran Ming said to Liu Mo: "I'll give you a good way to make money!"

"What!" As soon as Liu Wei heard that the business was coming, she naturally recovered her shrewd appearance.

Ran Ming said, "It's the Dongpo meat you ate just now, how does it taste?"

"Good! Very good!"

"Then let me tell you, the meat in this jar in my hand tastes the same as the one you eat."

Liu Wei said: "The current situation is not good, and the meat business is not easy to do. There are too few people who can afford meat!"

"Then what about Jiangnan?"

"What Jiangnan!"

Ran Ming said: "I mean, sell this canned meat to Jiangnan!"

Liu Wei shouted: "How is it possible? From here to Jiangnan, it takes half a month even for a fast horse, and more than a month for a boat. Although it will soon be autumn, the weather is still very hot. I'm afraid the meat won't fit It will stink in two days, how can it be sold in Jiangnan?"

Ran Ming said: "This is called canned meat. It not only has a good taste, but also the biggest advantage is that it can be stored for a long time. If the seal is not damaged, the meat inside can be stored for a year. And the taste will not change!"

"I see." Liu Mo nodded, her eyebrows frowned, and she remained silent, as if she was thinking about something.What she was thinking about was how to promote this canned meat and how much money it could make for Liu Shi!But Wang Meng was not thinking about the same thing as he did. When Wang Meng heard that there was actually meat that could be preserved for a year, he immediately thought of how it could be used in the military.

Wang Meng said: "Your Highness, how should this canned meat be used as military rations?"

"Soldiers and horses go first before using food and grass!" Ran Ming said: "Although our army currently has dried meat, salted fish, and dried fish that can be stored for a long time, the taste of these things is not very good. They are tasteless and tasteless. After a long time, the taste will become hard to swallow. Apart from satisfying hunger, it is not good for soldiers. If you eat it for a long time, your body will definitely not be able to bear it. How can sick soldiers go to the battlefield? The combat ability is greatly weakened. And canned meat does not have these problems, it can be eaten directly, not only can be used as meat, but also canned fruits, vegetables, canned rice, canned beef, etc.!"

Wang Meng pondered: "How much is this canned meat worth?"

Ran Ming said with a smile: "It's the same value as ordinary cooked meat, the only difference is the clay pot outside. There are many kilns in Qingzhou, which can be fired on the spot, and I also found coal, so I can bake it easily. The cheaper earthenware pot is just an additional pot outside, not a few more money!"

Wang Meng said: "This is a large amount of military rations that can be used in our army!"

Ran Ming said: "There is another way, so that soldiers can eat hot food without lighting a fire!"

"any solution?"

"It's very simple. Just make another jar outside this jar, preferably with two layers. You only need to put quicklime in the outer jar and pour water into it when you eat it. Then you can heat the canned meat and eat it when it's ready. !” said Ran Ming.

When Ran Ming said this, he also admired himself, he was so smart.This method can be thought of, it is simply a genius!
Wang Meng said: "This is very good, it should be produced in large quantities!"

"Mass production is good, we can sell it to the south of the Yangtze River, and make a lot of money!" Liu Wei said.

Wang Meng rolled his eyes, "Gu intends to reserve rations for our army, it's not what you think!"

Liu Mo didn't care whether Wang Meng liked it or not, but told her father Liu Yuan the news. This was a huge business opportunity!

Ran Ming said to Wang Meng again: "I can stay in Qingzhou for a month at most. I will write down these detailed matters and hand them over to Mr. The military power of the Cubs, Huben and Sixth Army is handed over to Mr., and the troops must be firmly grasped in our hands. This is the foundation of my life! And Mr. Jiangwutang can teach according to the "36 Strategies" I wrote! The emphasis is on military discipline , the army shall not interfere with local government affairs, shall not disturb the people, shall not destroy fertile land, and the training shall be mainly in barren land and mountainous areas!"

"The second point is to mine a large amount of coal from Heishi Mountain. Coal can be used to make steel and to burn porcelain. It can make money and can also be used to store military rations. At the same time, the breeding industry must be implemented as soon as possible. It takes five to six months to grow pigs, which means that Qingzhou can produce 6000 million catties of pork a year, and the problem of food can be solved.”

"The third point is to train the army when the water conservancy is being built. Sir, you can continue to select the young and strong from the refugees who went to the outside to train into the army. I am going to use the refugees to train a strong army and name it Beifu Army! Beifu The mansion is temporarily designated as Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang seven battalions. Each battalion has 7000 soldiers, including 7000 cavalry, [-] spearmen, and [-] sword and shield soldiers. A thousand mechanical soldiers are equipped with trebuchets or eight-ox ballistas, but each battalion of [-] troops must be equipped with a horse-gong crossbow!"

Wang Meng secretly took a deep breath, "What a great handwriting!"

Ran Ming said: "Gu is going to let Mr. train this army in his spare time of government affairs. You can let Gu's disciples help Mr. train the army. The army needs a lot of money. Gu prepares ten thousand catties of gold for Mr.! Canned meat sells rice All the food will be sent to the master!"
