Datang: at the Beginning, Eat Fruit

　　Such as tiger skin, bear skin, etc.In terms of keeping out the cold, it is also good for keeping warm.But even if you kill the tigers and grizzly bears in the whole Tang Dynasty, you will not be able to collect thousands of furs! !

　　And compared to the quilt, the ability to keep warm is not very strong.Moreover, the animal fur is generally not large, and it is not enough to cover two people when sleeping. It is not very convenient to sleep with Yuyao in winter.

　　"Forget it, I don't think I can understand it either. You can dig as much as you want for the white Diezi in the imperial garden." Li Er waved his hands.

　　"Hehe, I'll leave you with a few plants." A few hundred plants are not too much, but they can be used to plant a dozen or twenty acres with their seeds.

　　"Brother Lu Xiu, when you've finished picking up the tidbits of Bai Diezi, can Lizhi go to see it?" Li Lizhi blinked, as if she wanted to know how Lu Xiu made a quilt like a white piezi like a cloud.

　　"Lizhi can come to Luzhuang whenever she wants." Lu Xiu said. .

Chapter 108

　　After talking, Lu Xiu left the palace.

　　Originally, Li Erji wanted to keep Lu Xiu for dinner in the palace, but Lu Xiu unceremoniously refused because he had a wife waiting for him to go home.

　　What are you kidding me, they clearly wanted to eat, and they said it so nicely.

　　After Lu Xiu left, Empress Zhangsun looked at Li Er, "Your Majesty, did you have something to say to Master Lu just now?"

　　Knowing Li Er's eldest grandson, it is obvious that Li Er just stopped abruptly when he was about to say it.

　　"Yeah, I originally wanted to have the cheek to ask him for a falcon fruit for Guanyin maid. Because Guanyin maid has just given birth to a child, her body is very weak. If you can use falcon fruit to make up for it, I believe your body will soon be able to recover. Rehabilitation. But thinking that he has just treated the Guanyin maid, I have to trouble him again, I can’t say anything.”

　　She is still young and beautiful, but her physique has also improved a lot after taking it.If they are used by adults, the effect will be particularly significant.If the Guanyin maid could eat it, she might not need confinement at all! !

　　"Your Majesty, the ninth day of the next month will be approaching soon. It's fine for the concubine to wait for a few more days. If you trouble him again, it's really not good." Queen Changsun said.

　　"Yeah, that's why I didn't say it just now." Li Er nodded. Today, the Guanyin maid's mother and child are safe, which is very precious to Li Er.

　　…………

　　"Pharmacist, I brought a dozen catties of Maotai from Chang'an. Would you like to drink a few glasses tonight' ~."

　　It turned out that after more than ten days on the road, Cheng Yaojin, who was arranged by Li Er to deliver military rations, caught up with Li Jing's main force in Taiyuan.

　　"Zhijie, didn't you stay in Chang'an, why were you sent out by His Majesty?" Li Jing asked in surprise.

　　"Hey, how can I be so short of fighting the Turks. Your Majesty got [-] million catties of grain from Brother Lu, so let me ship it to you for two months' ration." Cheng Yaojin said.

　　"A mere five million kilograms of grain is not enough for one hundred thousand soldiers for half a month. How can it be eaten for two months? Isn't it difficult for us, Your Majesty?" Qin Qiong frowned.

　　"Yes, although the soldiers stationed in Yinshan have planted tens of thousands of acres of fertile fields. By the end of autumn, they can harvest tens of millions of catties of grain, but the grain you brought will not last for that time." Li Jing said.

　　The Tang Dynasty implemented the Fubing system. The Fubings were usually farmers who cultivated the land, trained in the agricultural gaps, and joined the army to fight in wartime.

　　It is no problem for them to be self-sufficient, but the [-] troops transferred from all over the Tang Dynasty gathered in Yinshan, and even if the grain was harvested at the end of autumn, it would not last long.

　　"Pharmacist, you don't know. Can the dry food given by Brother Lu be normal. A soldier only needs to eat three or four taels of dry food, even if he does not eat for two or three days, it will not be a problem." Cheng Yaojin smiled.

　　"How could there be that kind of dry food." Li Jing didn't believe it.

　　"If you don't believe me, do you want to try it? But I advise you not to eat too much, just eat one piece." Thinking that he stole five or six compressed biscuits some time ago, and couldn't eat for several days, Cheng Yaojin was deeply impressed. With experience, he could have eaten a few meals in Luzhuang by the way.

　　"Really, I'll try to see what kind of dry food it is." Li Jing nodded.

　　"Haha, you eat dry food, I won't accompany you, I'm going to eat and drink, I haven't had a good drink for several days." There is no accident in the delivery of food. Cheng Yaojin must maintain the highest vigilance along the way, how dare he drink .

　　Cheng Yaojin immediately asked the cook to cook a hearty meal and put it on the tent, while Li Jing, Su Dingfang and the others saw the so-called dry food from the carriage.

　　They were placed in the box on the car, and Li Jing took out a dozen pieces from it.

　　Bright packaging, I don't know what material it is, it feels smooth and smooth, and it can only be cut with a knife.

　　After taking the compressed biscuits, Li Jing and the others gathered in the tooth tent.

　　"¨〃 Zhijie, how do you eat it?" Li Jing, who was holding the biscuits, asked.

　　"It's very convenient to open the outside bag and eat it directly. It doesn't need to be boiled or cooked." Cheng Yaojin said.

　　According to Cheng Yaojin's guidance, Li Jing tore open the plastic shell.

　　I touched the biscuits with my hands and found that the texture was relatively hard.The teeth are biting on it, and it is really difficult to bite.

　　"(Zhao's) is actually sweeter and more delicious than ordinary dry food, and much better than noodles." Qin Shubao, who ate a compressed biscuit in two or three times, said.

　　"Yes, the disadvantage is that it is more difficult to chew. But it is as convenient as dry food, especially on the battlefield, it can save the effort of cooking." Li Jing nodded.

　　"But I don't know if it is as hungry as His Majesty said. I ate three or four pieces, but I didn't feel anything in my stomach." Su Dingfang touched his stomach and said.

　　"Don't worry, you can experience its powerful effects tomorrow. Especially your prescription, I have warned you not to eat so much." Cheng Yaojin glanced at Su Dingfang, who had eaten four or five yuan, and said.allow.

Chapter 109

　　The next day, Li Jing and the others finally felt the abnormality.

　　In the evening, after marching to camp.The guys on the stove started cooking in full swing.But the few of them couldn't feel any hunger.

　　It's been almost a day, and half a catty of dry food is usually not enough for them to eat a full meal.

　　"Pharmacist, do you want to come here? Hehe, after a day's march, drink some Maotai with mutton, and I feel exhausted." Cheng Yaojin, who was eating the delicious lamb chops, smiled at the thieves.

　　"I'll drink some noodle soup. My stomach is so full that I couldn't sleep well last night." Li Jing touched his stomach and said helplessly.

　　"Dingfang, how about you, come with a few catties of mutton. I remember that you have a big appetite. Yesterday, you ate more than half a catty of military rations in one go. You should be hungry now." Cheng Yaojin then looked at Su Dingfang.

　　"Uncle Cheng, don't make fun of me. Who would have thought that I could be so hungry after eating only a few pieces. I really want to see how long I can last without eating after eating half a catty of dry food." Su Dingfang said.

　　"If one meal can last for two days, the five million catties of food brought by Zhijie will be enough for us to eat for two months." Li Jing nodded.

　　"Yeah, I can only say that I am worthy of being the master of Lu Zhuang. It should have been a simple military ration, but it can be so good." Qin Qiong agreed.

　　"Although it can satisfy one's hunger, it doesn't have a big mouthful of meat, a big bowl of drinking, and a feast of indulgence, so I don't want to eat it often." Cheng Yaojin said.

　　"If the noodle soup is eaten with it, it is already better than the pasta. You must know that on the battlefield, it is often impossible to cook in the face of emergencies." The compressed biscuits are slightly hard and dry in texture, but the taste is very strong is sweet.

　　In the barracks, not everyone can eat and drink well.Ordinary soldiers eat bread for three meals a day.If you can win the battle, you may be able to eat meat once!

　　Two days later, Li Jing personally experienced the effect of compressed biscuits, and they didn't have a strong sense of hunger until the afternoon on the third day.

　　Eating half a catty can last two days, so the five million catties of military rations on hand can save a little, and can even support an army of [-] for three months!

　　"Huh, I finally have some confidence." The ample logistical supplies gave Li Jing a little more confidence.

　　…………

　　From the cotton fields of several acres in the Imperial Garden, Lu Xiu and a dozen men picked a total of [-] kilograms of white cotton wool.

　　After picking the cotton, a large number of cotton seedlings that are about to bloom are transplanted back to planting.

　　Although a lot of cotton seeds can be collected from the flower buds, it is too late to plant the seeds now, and there will be no harvest before winter.

　　The cotton plants of the Tang Dynasty were not cultivated by later scientists, so it is normal for the yield to be low.The [-] catties of tidbits collected can be left with [-] catties after drying, which is not bad.

(cfae)

　　Its weight is not too much. If it is for personal use, it is barely enough. The dozens of pounds of cotton on hand can play three or four quilts and a few pillows.

　　Then, see if you can make a mattress similar to the modern Simmons.

　　The quilt is paired with a soft Simmons mattress, and it is comfortable to lie on.

　　Although the couch of the Tang Dynasty is antique, it is accustomed to the softness of later generations, and it seems very hard to sleep on.

　　Especially in summer, when the weather is too hot, there is no padding, and it is hard to sleep.

　　Therefore, on the night of the bridal chamber, there will be an exaggerated "bang bang" noise.

　　Although there are many benefits of sleeping on a hard plank, if you are tired and sleep on a plank bed all day and night without acupressure and massage, mild spinal dislocations can be corrected by lying down on your back.

　　But it is not without disadvantages. Because the body support area is too small and the distribution of support force is uneven, the waist is prone to hang in the air.

　　In the long run, it will not only fail to protect the spine, but also lead to long-term muscle tension and contraction, resulting in muscle fatigue, soreness and other symptoms, and in severe cases, muscle strain.

　　Anyway, Lu Xiu was not used to sleeping on a hard flat bed, and he had not slept very well for several months.Sleep well, of course, if comfort is the first principle.If you can't sleep well, then what's the benefit.

　　"I said, Xiaoyou Lu, what are you doing when you come back with so many white piezia flowers?" Li Yuan said puzzled.

　　White Diezi is rare outside. It is a rare and exotic grass brought to the Tang Dynasty by merchants in the Western Regions, and only a few acres have been planted in the Imperial Garden.

　　but……

　　When Li Yuan looked at the several carriages that Lu Xiu had brought, they were filled with saplings of Bai Diezi, "Uh, you shouldn't have dug back all the Bai Diezi in the imperial garden."

　　"It's true that I almost dug up the Imperial Garden." Lu Xiu smiled.

　　"Husband should want to plant a little bit of admiration. The tidbits as white as snow look like clouds. They are really beautiful." Li Yuyao said with a large amount of tidbits in her hands.

　　"Viewing is only second, their tidbits have other wonderful uses." Lu Xiu said. .

Chapter 110

　　"After it's dried, I'll tell you its wonderful uses."

　　The tidbits of the cotton can be used after drying the moisture.In addition, he had to prepare the tools for playing cotton.

　　As for the hundreds of flower seedlings dug up, in addition to leaving dozens of flower seedlings to plant in Luzhuang's flowerbed, Lu Xiu planted the rest of the flower seedlings in the spare land.

　　The role of cotton is not mainly for viewing, but for making warm quilts, and even for weaving clothes. Lu Xiu had to correct their thoughts~.

　　Although silk is good, if it is used on close-fitting clothes, Lu Xiu's tactile senses think that cotton clothes are actually slightly better in terms of comfort. The advantage of cotton cloth is that it is breathable and comfortable.

　　Silk is smooth and not easy to wrinkle, but Lu Xiu just doesn't like the feeling of too smooth underwear.

　　"Let's wait and see. How could the old man guess Lu Xiaoyou's intention." But looking at Lu Xiu who was getting busy and getting carried away, Li Yuan muttered in his heart: "I don't know when the eagle fruit will be available to this old man. ."

　　"Emperor, don't worry, didn't your husband say that, if there is something, I will give it to you first, and then it will be the emperor's turn. At the latest, it will only be the ninth day of next month." Li Yuyao on the side couldn't help but chuckle.

　　"The main reason is that I don't know when Lu Xiaoyou will suddenly go south to Yangzhou. I am afraid that it will be too late to learn the skills of flying. And Lu Xiaoyou took out the eagle fruit, I think it is to facilitate the journey?"

　　After getting along with Lu Xiu for two or three months, Li Yuan thought he knew "one or two".I felt that because Lu Xiu wanted to go south to Yangzhou, he showed the ability of the falcon.

　　"I have that plan. One is to take a carriage or a boat, it will take too much time, and the other, the bumps along the way are too uncomfortable, I don't want the ladies to suffer from that." Lu Xiu said.

　　If it is a long journey, they cannot take a bath or stay on the road, and from time to time, there may be several waves of bandits robbing the road.Long-distance travel in ancient times was actually a very dangerous thing.
