After reading a circle, the sky gradually darkened. Everyone felt that they had not walked much, but time passed quickly.
Everyone was preparing to have dinner, and the people on the dock were busy.
To build a new bridge, we are measuring. We will build a cable bridge in the south first, and remove the cable bridge after the original multi-hole arch bridge is rebuilt.
To the west is the bridge leading to Chang'an City. Since there are few people walking, three cable bridges are planned to be built, corresponding to Yanxing Gate, Chunming Gate and Tonghua Gate respectively.
In order not to hinder the passage of ships, the cable bridge adopts the method of raising both sides.
After learning a lot of knowledge, Huang Li and his party were busy directing the loading of goods.
The sixty grain ships that came here will go back with goods. The ship owners are happy, and Huang Li and his party can also make a fortune.
At this season, there is nothing in Guanzhong area that can be sold to Guangzhou. There are too few fruits, and Guangzhou is not short of fruits.
The goods loaded on the ship are mainly goods sent to Jingzhao Prefecture from other northwest and west areas. Huang Li and his party bought them and brought them back to Guangzhou.
In addition, there are soaps, perfumed soaps, and toilet water sold in Lijiazhuangzi. Huang Li and his people like toilet water because there are many mosquitoes in summer.
Huang Li called people to direct, thinking about it, the quantity is not enough, but there is money. Li Yi did not collect taxes, so they paid the taxes first and made up for it when they returned.
Strictly speaking, their behavior is misappropriation of public funds.
Li Yi is not worried that they dare not make up for it. The entire Guangzhou Prefecture is managed by people from Lijiazhuangzi.
Would the locals dare to kill people to silence them? Think about Gao Lishi and Yang Sixu.
They were exterminated. Because they were young, they were castrated and entered the palace as eunuchs.
The court before the Tang Dynasty could exterminate the human race, but Li Yi could do it more easily.
Killing people from Lijiazhuangzi is no different from rebellion. There are also Yulin flying cavalry there.
"I'm going to find Li Dongzhu. I don't know what to buy."
Huang Li was worried. Sixty ships could not be filled at all. They loaded food when they came. Would they load food when they returned?
He threw down a sentence and applied to enter the manor and searched himself.
Li Yi and the others hadn't eaten yet. It was still a little early, so they were waiting for food.
They didn't eat beef today. The beef was for the farmers, palace maids and eunuchs.
They made a soup or something so that everyone could taste a little. There were too many people.
In the evening, they prepared an iron pot to stew the goose. There were no potatoes, but mushrooms.
In fact, nothing else needed to be added, just stew the goose.
Li Yi asked someone to make cornmeal cakes. The corn he brought back was damaged in the front part when it was artificially selected and raised.
The embryo fell off and obviously couldn't sprout. It was just right to grind it into flour and add a little white flour to make a big cake.
Goose meat was stewed in the big iron pot, and the raw cornmeal cakes were attached to the inside of the pot.
When the goose was stewed, the cakes were already cooked in advance.
Many geese were stewed at a time. The people in the farm ate them, and the cornmeal cakes were in short supply.
Li Yi didn't know how this dish became a dish in the northeast, as if people didn't eat goose in other places.
It's probably related to stewing. People in the Northeast like to eat stews, which are hot.
Huang Li came over: "Master Li, we plan to go back and bought a lot of things, but..."
"It's not enough, right?" Li Yi took over.
Huang Li was touched. It was easy to talk to Master Li. He nodded: "What to buy?"
"You should have bought things from the northwest and the west, such as pickled mustard, tea, and medicinal materials, and bought things sold in Li's manor.
Including hazelnuts, mushrooms and pine nuts sent from Khitan.
You didn't buy Shu brocade or anything like that. There is embroidery in the local area. In addition, gems can be imported due to sea trade, so you don't need them."
Li Yi said while thinking, what would he buy if he was in Huang Li's position.
Huang Li continued to nod, all right, he opened his mouth: "We also..."
"We also bought flour. You found that the wheat flour in Guanzhong is better. It's good to take it back to steam buns and bake bread." Li Yi added.
"I didn't buy too much, I just tried it, mainly for the trip back..."
"There are places to buy on the way back. The Grand Canal is a line, and you can buy from other places. For example, the flour in Lu is also good."
"Yes, what else do we need to buy?" Huang Li was a little scared, it was too scary.
"Silk, a lot of silk was sent from other places, and it is not used as currency in Jingzhao Prefecture now.
You buy it back and sell it to foreign merchants. It is a waste to give them silk. The places where foreign merchants are located are relatively backward.
You can buy the transformed eggs in Jingzhao Prefecture, or on the way back. Jingzhao Prefecture has more and has a water network."
Li Yi recommended the transformed eggs. Everyone raised a lot of ducks, and the duck eggs were fishy. They could not finish eating the transformed eggs.
Huang Li showed an embarrassment: "Master Li, we don't like to eat preserved eggs very much. I tried it and it's okay. Mix it with tofu."
"Sell it to the foreign merchants, and sell aged vinegar at the same time. Preserved eggs dipped in aged vinegar are good for people who live and work at sea. Eating two a day will not easily make you sick."
Li Yi did not expect the locals in Guangzhou to eat preserved eggs vigorously, but there are others!
"Really?" Huang Li heard it for the first time.
"It's okay to a certain extent. Add some ginger foam and mix it with preserved eggs, especially tofu. Teach the foreign merchants to make tofu and bring soybeans to sea. Eating them will reduce the number of illnesses."
Li Yi was not too sure and mentioned something new.
When the Tang Dynasty fleet went out, they brought beans, mung beans and soybeans, to make tofu or bean sprouts.
With aged vinegar and ginger, this would solve the problem of malnutrition and vitamin deficiency of seafarers to a large extent!
As for what role the transformed eggs can play in this? Eating too much will make you get used to it, especially when you eat a lot of vinegar, eating vinegar directly will make you uncomfortable.
"So, should I bring back a lot of vinegar? We have a lot of vinegar in Guanzhong." Huang Li understood and sold the transformed eggs and vinegar.
"It should be at least twenty times the price. If it's cheap, they don't know how precious it is. This is the secret of my Tang Dynasty's ocean voyage!"
Li Yi showed a look of compassion. For the health of the foreign merchants, he violated the orders of his ancestors and gave the good method to people without authorization.
"Okay, I'll arrange it now." Huang Li was anxious and quickly found someone to buy it. Anyway, the city gates were not closed at night, and many places were doing business.
He bought in large quantities, the price was cheap, and then sold it to the foreign merchants at twenty times the market price.
His side asked for a 10% tax, and the foreign merchants paid an additional 20% tax when they bought it.
"No!" Li Yi clasped his fists and did not let the other party eat the iron pot stewed goose. The other party was too eager.
While eating, Li Longji and his group got the news.
"Sell the extra eggs now?" Bi Gou thought of the tax on sea trade.
"It's not much, the people just don't want to eat them. There are also big goose eggs, which are not eaten. They are all made into eggs and salted eggs, which will impact the market."
Li Yi shook his head. The people raised ducks and geese at home, but they didn't eat them themselves, so they always wanted to sell them for money.
People who raise chickens do eat eggs. It is written in the newspaper that one should eat one egg a day.
"I want to think of a way to ask the people to eat duck eggs and goose eggs themselves. The protein intake is less provided by staple food.
Don't make all of them into eggs and salted eggs. Fry them with green onions, and the fishy smell is not so strong."
Li Yi thought about persuading the people.
