Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 1597 Two promotion paths

  The grill was erected, a guard drove the servants away, and then sat in front of the grill, slowly turning the branch with a venison leg, so that the venison was heated evenly.

It's not that there's something wrong with the servants, but because the guards go to the north and south every day, and if they cook some other dishes, they probably don't know much about it, but the barbecue, after a lot of practice, the craftsmanship is gradually exquisite , even better than the average cook.

When the deer's hind legs are roasted by the flames, the originally red meat color gradually turns white, and after a while, it starts to turn yellow, and the aroma gradually gathers. The concentrated energy that humans in the Han Dynasty could ingest, and the joy engraved deep in their genes, seemed to make the peristalsis in the stomach faster.

Fortunately, Fei Qian and Pang Tongzao didn't have to sit and wait. The heated stone slabs had already been placed in the pavilion, and the marinated deer tenderloin was cut into pieces and spread on the wooden tray. Like a bright red flower in full bloom.

   "Come on, do it yourself!"

   Fei made a sneaky gesture, and conveniently set up a piece of venison and spread it on the black stone slab. The slate has been smeared with some fat from the belly of the deer. Although the entire surface is slightly uneven, under the combined effect of oil and temperature, the meat will not stick to it.

  Real slate barbecue.

Under each stone slab, there is a small brazier with some charcoal burning inside. When the venison touches the stone slab, it makes a creaking sound almost immediately, and the grease jumps on the stone slab. In the midst of a puff of blue smoke, Yan Hong changed into a pink dress, twisting her body, revealing her curves.

  Venison is more tender than mutton. Of course, there is still a difference between old deer and young deer. If it is an adult deer, the texture of the meat will be thicker.

Slate may be the earliest cooking utensils for human beings, and barbecue is the most primitive cooking method for human beings. This kind of memory contained deep in the genes does not involve any additional processes, and only pursues the most fundamental taste, which is the various flavors of the meat itself. A variety of proteins and fatty acids are decomposed and recombined under high temperature. When the meat put into the mouth secretes a sweet juice between the lips and teeth, mixed with burnt fat, it is enough to make people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

Because the meat slices are very thin and marinated to taste, basically there is no need to sprinkle any seasonings, just put it on, wait for more than ten seconds, turn it over, and then wait for more than ten seconds, it is ready to eat So, the three of Fei Qian sat in the pavilion, basically concentrating on a stone slab and a plate of venison in front of them. They didn't have time to talk for a while. Jumping with squeaking grease, it became a movement of delicious food.

  In the fifth year of Yanping, although spring still came, it was still chilly, especially in the morning and evening, when the temperature dropped very sharply. After the sun went down, the temperature was like sitting on a slide.

Lights were lit in the courtyard, and besides the bonfire, several torches were also set up. Naturally, the temperature could not be guaranteed to be the same as indoors, but as a plate of venison entered the stomach, the soft and tender juice lay on the stomach wall On the other hand, it is also stored warmly in the intestinal tract, which continuously provides sufficient heat to the whole body, making people not feel cold at all, but a thin layer of sweat emerges from the forehead.

The sheep in the north are delicious because the weather in the north is mostly cold, so the grass eaten by cattle and sheep is not as fermented as in the south, so the volatile fatty acids in the grass are less fermented by sheep. It is absorbed by the subcutaneous fat, so the taste is relatively better than that of southern sheep.

  But all grass-eating animals actually have this taste, but more or less, and the same is true for deer.

   But deer is naturally the kind with better taste.

  Guanzhong deer may be so delicious that they are basically eaten up in later generations. In the end, only cattle and sheep in Guanzhong that are raised in captivity and intend to breed on a large scale can survive, and the deer are basically extinct.

  The pure taste makes the three of Fei Qian have no desire to communicate at all, only have a shiny mouth and beard, and eyes that are staring at the next mouthful of food.

   After eating two plates and eating a few pieces of roasted venison hind legs, Fei touched his rounded belly and licked his lips subconsciously, finally slowing down.

Pang Tong took time out of his busy schedule to look left and right, and found that Fei Qian and Zao Zhi had slowed down, and couldn't help becoming more anxious. He hurriedly stuffed the roasted venison into his mouth, and glared at the servants beside him. , indicating to send another plate as soon as possible...

Fei Qian looked at it, laughed twice, took the hot towel from the servant's hand, wiped off the grease stained on his mouth and beard, and said to Pang Tong: "No hurry, Shi Yuan Just eat slowly, Zijing and I will chat first..."

  In the Han Dynasty, all men had beards, and beards like Liu Bei were rare, and they were ridiculed as "Lu Zhuo Jun". This shows the status of hair in the aesthetic concept of Han Dynasty society. There are also several types of beards, mustaches, beards, and hair. They are all different. Like Guan Erye, they are thick and dense, plus they are soft and shiny. They are really excellent beards...

   Therefore, although it is not necessary to use kits, the protection and daily cleaning of the beard has become another thing that Feiqian is used to in his daily life. After eating, he not only needs to wipe his mouth, but also needs to wipe his beard...

So in the Han Dynasty, there might not be many sales of shampoo and conditioner, but if there is any kind of beard conditioner softener, it will definitely be out of stock. It's a pity that Feiqian's chemical knowledge is not very good, so he can't handle these things. Otherwise, please close Erye's bag of salt or something.

  Imagine Erye Guan with his upper body bare, um, let’s wear a vest, and then Liu Daer slapped Erye Guan’s beard, and then slid down...

  Wow Kaka, the picture must be extremely beautiful.

   Hey, Zaozhi’s beard is not bad either. Although it’s not as long as Guan Yu’s, it’s quite shiny and smooth...

   Fei Qian glanced at Zaozhi with a smile, circled around Zaozhi's chin, and then took it back. Jujube, who was wiping his beard, suddenly felt a little chilly and shivered, then looked around suspiciously, but saw nothing unusual.

   "How is Du Bohou these days?" Fei Qian returned the hot towel to the servant, and then randomly picked a topic to ask Zaozhi.

Du Ji is very interesting. I don’t know if he realized the importance of Zaozhi’s agricultural bachelor, or because Du Ji himself liked the art of farming and mulberry, so he applied to resign from his original position in Chang’an. I'm going to serve Zaozhi as an assistant...

"Bohou is diligent and meticulous, and he is also very eager to learn. With him as his assistant, it makes me feel a lot easier..." Zaozhi nodded, and said solemnly, "Scholars of agriculture, although they don't take classics as their value, are also qualified. Don't, it's really not easy for Bohou to teach students according to their aptitude..."

  Fei Qian waved his hand and said, "This is just a casual chat between you and my brother, there is no need to be so formal...By the way, have the standards for the evaluation of Bachelor of Agriculture been formulated?"

  Bachelor of Agriculture and Bachelor of Engineering are two holes that Feiqian made in the system of recommending filial piety in the Han Dynasty. They are also the seeds that Feiqian sowed through jujubes when he entered Guanzhong. Now it is gradually sprouting.

  The referral system of the Han Dynasty is the same as the nine-rank Zhongzheng system of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

Under the imperial examination system, there are still some chances for students and tutors after all, for example, the guy in his fancy accidentally knocked over the ink bottle, or the manuscript paper was stained with saliva while sleeping, and there is also a certain amount of space for the poor students. , but the recommendation system and the nine-rank Zhongzheng system are completely based on interpersonal relationships. Relying on the merits and titles of the ancestors basically cut off the road to poor families.

  Although the recommendation system looks beautiful, that is, the recommender needs to endorse the recommendee. If the recommendee is unqualified, the recommender will bear joint and several liabilities. From a purely superficial point of view, the recommendation system does not seem to be a big problem, but in actual use, it has inevitably caused two serious drawbacks, one of which is particularly serious, and has even caused harm to this day.

In addition to the clique mentioned earlier, which caused Yuan's disciples and old officials to spread all over the world, another extremely important hazard is that people who are famous but have no morals, or who have virtue but no talent, lead to such people when they hold official positions. , are often excluded by local officials, or simply join forces, and in the end not only fail to bring benefits to the country, but often become silverfish.

This kind of legacy has even been passed on to the imperial examinations. As a result, for thousands of years, in the feudal society of China, a large number of upper-level officials have been superfluous. They only know how to cater to their superiors, but do not understand specific practices. . Officials who only know how to read and read scriptures will naturally be pinched by local officials who are familiar with practical matters when they encounter specific problems. Even though some capable people with lofty ideals initiate so-called reform and development, once they reach the grassroots level, they will naturally become empty talk and lies on paper.

  In this era, who would have thought that such a system would affect the millennium?

   Except Fei Qian.

   Rice needs to be eaten bite by bite, and so is meat.

  So what Feiqian is doing now is not only the superficial competition for territory to become a prince, but also planting many seeds, waiting for the selection and breeding of generations just like cotton.

Zaozhi obviously had thought a lot about this question a long time ago, so Fei Qian asked without any hesitation, and immediately replied: "Someone thinks that the Second Agricultural and Engineering School can be established on the side of Chang'an for a period of three years. Learn the skills of farming and engineering, and after completing your studies, distribute the counties according to your knowledge... Farmers are based on taxes and the number of mu yields, while workers are based on roads, canals, water, gold, etc., each based on evaluation, two years For a period of time, the superior will be promoted, the average will be appointed, and the inferior will be exempted..."

   Feiqian listened, then nodded, and when Zao had only spoken a paragraph, he turned around and asked Pang Tong, "What do you think, Shi Yuan?"

Pang Tong was also full. He burped and wiped the oil with a hot towel. Hearing Fei Qian's question, he thought for a while and said, "The whole thing is not bad. I think we can try this first... But there are some problems. A few questions, one is whether the three-year semester will be too long, and should I pay tuition? The second is to evaluate after two years in office. If there is any major project...will it be too short? The third is honors and Let’s not talk about those who are re-elected, how to deal with those who are dismissed? In addition, who will make the evaluation? How much is the number?”

   Feiqian nodded, then looked at Zaozhi.

Zaozhi replied immediately: "The art of agriculture and industry is extremely extensive. If the time is short... Well, there may be some talented and intelligent people, but most people are ordinary people after all. Maybe three years can be changed to two years, but No matter how short it is, it's not suitable for the tuition fee? I really didn't consider this... As for the assessment period, it's almost enough to get familiar with it for one year and start with it for one year. How about a one-term extension? As for those who are rated as inferior, they will be transferred to the next-level county and township.

"...In the future, the person who checks is especially important..." Zaozhi looked at Fei Qian and said, "If you have a certain meaning, you should not use scholars of Confucianism..." Although Zaozhi didn't finish speaking, but the meaning has been expressed, Agricultural Science Engineering is considered a relatively professional subject. How can a person who only knows how to read scriptures know about agriculture and engineering?

"So, the divisions..." Fei Qian nodded and said, "Agronomy, people from agriculture will check, engineering people will go to engineering, and the scriptures will follow the scriptures, and maybe further up, you can make inferences. But the ones below can only be divided into subjects..."

"Well, let me sum it up..." Fei Qian clapped his hands lightly, and said, "The general framework follows what Zijing said, and then some detailed rules can be decided temporarily, and we can decide after three to five years of implementation according to the situation." You can adjust it... But, what are the grades, Zi Jingshiyuan, neither of you said...A bachelor of agriculture and a bachelor of engineering have to be graded, from the student all the way up...The student is the person who enters the school. After completing his studies, he is called a bachelor, and then Those who perform well during the local tenure will be granted a master's degree. Those who have achieved outstanding results and are at the top of the list can be awarded a doctorate. Once they supplement the central government's position, they can teach in agriculture and engineering... In this way, people who evaluate the localities will come out. One thing is the local assessment..."

  Pang Tong clapped his palms and smiled: "Very true! Very true! Anyone who has achieved great results is called a master! He who collects a lot of talents is called a blogger!"

"There is one more..." Fei Qian continued, "Students must be charged for tuition fees, but you can open an opening, which can be regarded as equal treatment... The tuition fee for the first year is 5,000 copper coins, and then it will be assessed every year. If you pass the assessment within one year, you can get your tuition back. If you have to study for two years to pass the assessment before you can graduate, then how much tuition should you pay? If you can graduate in the third year, and those who can’t graduate, the tuition fee It takes twice as long... if the tuition fee is not enough, you can borrow it from the government, and you can pay it back in ten or twenty years..."

  Zao only frowned, and Pang Tong was also thoughtful.

  Fei Qian was not in a hurry, he slowly picked up the tea and drank it, and looked into the distance. These are two new roads, but it doesn’t mean it’s easy to walk...

  It is true for Feiqian, and it is also true for those who want to change their destiny!
