Chapter 1370: Sufficient Supplies and Peace at the Border

"Highland Barley!" Qin Li and Zhang Xiaosong said at the same time.

"Didn't Li Yi give out several things that can be planted?" Wang Junkui was thinking about valuable crops.

"It's best for highland barley people to eat horse chews. The rest of the crops will be considered after the highland barley is planted." Qin Li had already been guided by Li Yi when he came.

Nothing else is as good as highland barley, which is the main food crop on the plateau.

Other soybeans and the like are supplements.

“It’s time to plant snow lotus before the Chinese New Year.” Zhang Xiaosong reminded from the side that there are still many local snow lotus.

But he knew that the demand in Datang was greater, so he planted it artificially and then transplanted the planted snow lotus outside.

Including other medicinal materials, everything can be grown.

"Li Yi had better keep up the profitable business, otherwise the soldiers will feel uneasy!"

Zhang Zhongliang is very aware of the amount of food and grass consumed every day. A few years ago, he would not have dared to think about it.

The army was stationed in Tubo territory, and supplies continued to flow.

The current situation is not so much created by fighting as it is created by spending money.

Use money to make hot air balloons, dynamite packs, flying monkeys, and kerosene.

Then use money to buy various things and hire people to deliver them.

The better the food the soldiers had, the greater the pressure, fearing that one day the court would run out of money.

"There is no need to worry about money." Qin Licai didn't think about money. The money from the Li family village could be easily supplied to the border.

Then he added: "The most important thing right now is to bring in the new tribes and teach them to speak the Tang Dynasty dialect as much as possible so that they can recognize the Tang Dynasty."

"Celebrating the New Year is a good time. Tubo did not celebrate the same New Year as the Tang Dynasty in previous years. From this year on, all Tang Dynasty festivals will be celebrated locally."

Zhang Xiaosong came up with ideas to educate people's livelihood, starting from the traditional aspect.

"Report, Zhongshu Xingwen." The voice of the report came from outside the house.

"Come in!" Guo Zhiyun said.

The official documents from the Central Publishing House were sent in. First, look at the lacquer seal, cut it open, and take out the document.

"He said that the newly returned people would be allowed to weave wool products, and collect animal dung for fertilizer. They were not allowed to burn it. In addition, they would catch wild donkeys."

Guo Zhiyun read it once and told others to listen.

Let's pass it around and read it. The work has been solved and there is no need to collect ice.

"Before the Chinese New Year, other supplies will be delivered, such as radish, sauerkraut, and kimchi." Zhang Xiaosong clicked his lips after reading it.

He likes to eat kimchi from Shu, and the big radish is suitable for stewed meat in the pressure cooker.

"Big radish does consume a lot." Wang Junkui said, getting greedy.

Put two pieces of meat and stew with radishes. Take a sip of the stewed soup and your whole body will float.

As soon as he finished speaking, the smell of stewed radish came out.

"It's not until noon! There are radishes to eat again, okay!" Zhang Zhongliang sniffed, as if he was waiting for a stew of radishes.

In the past, I didn't like to eat big radishes when I was a military envoy. I only ate them when I had no other choice, mainly because I found radishes bitter.

Later I learned that the skin of the radish should be removed first so that it will not be bitter when stewed.

Moreover, radish skin soaked in vinegar is more delicious.

The radishes are indeed being stewed outside, and some of them have already been stewed. They are put into large buckets to keep warm, and they will be eaten in rotation at meal time.

There are yak meat stews, mutton stews, wolf meat, venison, antelope meat...

No matter which one, there is more meat, more water and less radish.

It's not a big piece of radish, the radish is cut into small pieces, and after being stewed in the pressure cooker, it's basically broken into pieces.

Even so, the surrendered people also like to eat it.

They once couldn't eat radishes, couldn't grow them, and didn't have the skills.

You can't stew the radish because the air pressure is too low and the water temperature is not enough.

In fact, they love to eat anything stewed. The cooking method of stewing is simply amazing.

In the past, meat was mostly roasted or eaten raw. If you wanted to cook it, it would take a long time.

Smelling the fragrance, the children drooled with greed, but they didn't dare to ask for it.

They had to wait until meal time to eat together, and the pressure cooker was reloaded and put on the fire again.

The staple food at noon today is not tsampa, but sesame seed cakes.

Use a naan pit, or the kind of stove you use to roast sweet potatoes.

After roasting, you can stew radish soup and eat it. Add some pickles, and your life will be beautiful.

Many people's favorite pickles are fermented bean curd, red cubes, which are sealed and brought over in jars.

Half a piece of fermented bean curd is enough for a meal, but I won’t be able to eat more.

After simmering it several times in a row, everyone started eating at noon.

Various camps began to distribute salted goose eggs, which are very salty and salty. The yellow color does not ooze oil at all, they have solidified, and they still smell a little bit stinky.

This is a stinky salted egg, but you also need salty rotten eggs and rotten eggs.

If you save an egg, you can eat it for several days.

They are all bought and delivered from Jingzhao Prefecture. People in Jingzhao Prefecture don't like to eat goose eggs because they are fishy.

After pickling, it is fishier than duck eggs and chicken eggs. It was needed by the border customs, so the people sold it to the court at a price similar to that of duck eggs, which was regarded as supporting the border customs.

Li Yi gave the pickling method. Marinate it first, and then when it's almost time, take it out, cook it, and then throw it into salt water to soak.

This way, the shelf life is long.

As for being unhealthy, we are not considering such profound issues now.

Each salted goose egg has a hole at the big end, but not at the small end. Just knock it and slowly dig it out from the big end.

Here’s an ad, I’m using the Zhuishu app recently. [app] caches books for reading and reading aloud offline!

In fact, just insert it with chopsticks and taste it in your mouth.

People are curious, why are all the salted goose eggs so empty?

"How is this done?" Not only the original Tubo tribe members were wondering, but Wang Junkui was also surprised.

They each had one, and their positions basically remained unchanged.

Even Zhang Xiaosong, who was a Jinshi, was puzzled. He looked at Qin Li.

Qin Li smiled: "Put it in such a way that whichever side is facing up is empty. Make a hole in the ground or on a wooden board, and put the small end of the goose egg in it. After a few days, the top will be empty."

"Is it that simple?" Zhang Zhongliang thought it was very difficult.

"Therefore, when artificially incubating, the eggs must be turned over, otherwise the survival rate will be low."

Qin Li drank a mouthful of carrot soup and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Li Yi's knowledge... Alas!" Zhang Xiaosong showed regret. He wanted to see Li Yi take the imperial examination.

Li Yi could just take the Xiucai exam. A group of people asked, and the requirements were very high.

If he took the Jinshi exam, how would he get the first place? It would be curious.

It's a pity that Li Yi is full of talent, but he can't take the exam.

…

Li Yi, who has helped countless people, is selecting pigs after dinner. He is going to kill several pigs tomorrow.

After selecting, they are cleaned and sent to the operating table at night for interventional surgery training. They are anesthetized first.

Insert the wire into the blood vessels, then find the position, prop up the balloon, and dilate the blood vessels.

The little girl has this problem, and it will be fine after dilation. This is the simplest case of her disease.

Li Yi mainly trains nurses, female nurses.

Then let the female nurses perform hysterosalpingography on Lan Bao's sister-in-law and Concubine Dou Lu to see if this is the reason for infertility.

If so, it will be easy to deal with. We will do some analysis, anti-inflammatory and unblocking.

Li Yi is not going to operate on the operating table himself. He is responsible for watching the images.

When unblocking, he will not do it himself. He will avoid suspicion whenever he can.

The pigs will make contributions first, and then the death row prisoners will be used. After becoming proficient, he will perform surgery on the eldest disciple. The disciple is talented, it would be a pity if he died!
