Chapter 21 Brother 3, Let Me Tell You What the Emperor Is Thinking

"Third brother, sister-in-law, I have a business now, do you know about tea eggs?" Li Yi said something.

He thought Datang didn't have it.

As a result, Li Longji and Queen Wang nodded together.

Li Yi: "..."

Yes, I have? Are there tea eggs now?

Li Longji said: "On weekdays, I make tea with salt and ginger. When I'm hungry, I boil eggs in it. It tastes good."

Li Yi was stunned after hearing this.

It turns out that in ancient times, when you make tea, you add salt and ginger, and when you feel hungry while drinking it, you just put eggs in it and boil it together.

Tea eggs just come out, they are a by-product.

Just like eating boiled eggs and noodles in a hot pot, ancient people were also very thoughtful. When they were hungry, why not buy another pot to boil eggs?

"What about the spiced ones? Sauced beef, smoked chicken." Li Yi asked from a different angle.

The two of them shook their heads together, saying no, they didn't know what was in it, but it was delicious anyway.

Li Yi felt relieved now. You can't throw aniseed and cinnamon into the tea, right? What does that smell like?

"I want to make five-spice eggs. The eggs are boiled directly. Duck eggs are fishy and need to be pickled. I will cook a batch of eggs tomorrow and keep track of them. I will show you the accounts then."

Li Yi said.

He also knows the price. The current situation is special, and it costs three hundred yuan for a bucket of rice.

One bucket of rice is ten liters, and one liter is one point and eight kilograms of rice.

One pound costs nearly seventeen cents.

Eggs are divided into sizes, basically ten to a catty, one catty to sixteen taels, or six hundred and sixty grams.

A pound of eggs cannot be cheaper than a pound of rice.

Then everyone eats eggs.

According to the current situation of non-professional laying hen breeding, the price of eggs is two to three times that of rice.

So Li Yi planned to sell a spiced egg for 500 cents and a spiced duck egg for 600 cents.

This thing is not for ordinary people to eat at all. Whoever has money can enjoy it.

Ordinary people are reluctant to buy boiled eggs even if they are sold at market prices.

"Is it delicious?" Queen Wang was the most direct.

"Let's eat and drink slowly, I'll cook first." Li Yi said to go find something, not waiting for tomorrow.

Then boil the eggs in a pot next to it, add soy sauce, salt, five-spice seasoning and tea leaves in it.

Fifteen minutes later, he picked up two pairs of chopsticks.

Clamp the eggs with one pair and tap lightly with the other pair to get the texture.

Li Longji and Queen Wang were surprised by Li Yi's use of chopsticks with both hands. It was so stable.

Li Yi didn't think so. Even if he failed in routine operations, he would still be able to master the basic skills of a doctor.

If you can't control your hands well, how can you perform surgery?

It's just sandwiching and cracking eggs, it's not like peeling off the outer shell.

When he knocked, he deliberately hit it very hard to break the membrane, otherwise the color would not come out for a long time.

There were fifty eggs in total. Li Yi cracked them all and threw them into the pot again to cook over high heat. They tasted delicious quickly.

Li Longji and Li Longji were not in a hurry to go to bed after eating. They were relaxing today.

Vacation is coming.

Li Yi chatted with Li Longji about the world, politics and humanities, the current international situation, analysis of the main figures in the upper class of Tibetan Turks...

He spoke openly, and Li Longji listened.

Then Li Longji wanted to hold a small court meeting at the moment and call the ministers to listen and analyze together.

Queen Wang's big eyes blinked, she was extraordinary, half of the credit for Li Longji becoming emperor should be given to her.

She also knew a lot of things, but listening to what this uncle said, she found that she still didn't know much.

"Third brother, let me tell you, the tougher our Tang Dynasty becomes, the more they compromise. Isn't it just a test that they send people here?"

"Why are you testing? The emperor has just dealt with Princess Taiping, which gives the impression of political instability."

"That's why the emperor built a pear orchard. What's the purpose? To sing and dance to bring peace, just to show off to the world."

"The Emperor is worried now. Prices are high and the combat effectiveness of the army has dropped sharply."

"So he has to appease the people while seizing the time to make changes, especially the military."

"I know what he is thinking, do you believe it or not? He wants to create a cavalry unit, the most powerful of which should be the Yulin Army Flying Cavalry."

"This flying knight is not only excellent at riding, he is also proficient in bows and crossbows."

"Belonging to the light cavalry, they should come and go like the wind, and run and shoot like a shuttle."

Li Yi said wow wow.

Li Longji sweated on his forehead and was frightened.

My heart said, Damn it, you can guess what I’m thinking?

For a moment, Li Longji wanted to kill someone, and imitated Cao Cao in killing Yang Xiu.

But he couldn't bear it, Brother Yi was too powerful.

Needless to say killing him, even if he ate while he was in the palace and found it tasted bad, he felt empty in his heart when he thought of Brother Yi.

That's why I brought the queen to play with me today, and I felt relieved when I saw Brother Yi.

Now it is really clear that Brother Yi is simply not a human being.

"Are you right, third brother, sister-in-law?" Li Yi drank too much, and his body couldn't handle the alcohol.

"Yes, uncle is right." Empress Wang praised her. Uncle also knows military affairs.

Li Longji asked: "Brother Yi, what happens next?"

At the moment, Li Longji's whole body was numb, feeling that he was facing a being like Jiang Ziya or Zhuge Liang.

For a while, Li Longji discovered that Prime Minister Yao Chong was useless compared to Brother Yi in front of him.

The surrounding situation was explained very thoroughly, and the situation facing the country was also explained clearly.

Why it came out like this? Who did Brother Yi learn from?

Guiguzi is still alive?

"Chicken, the eggs are ready. Take them out and taste them. Soak them overnight. They will taste better." Li Yi rubbed his face with his hands and stood up to fish out the eggs.

Fish out three, one for each person.

Li Longji and Queen Wang were blowing to cool down.

Li Yi pushed the already cracked egg onto the table and pressed it again. The entire eggshell fell off, revealing some soy sauce-colored eggs inside.

The two of them also learned how to peel off the skin of an egg in a few strokes.

When they tasted it, Li Longji and Queen Wang discovered that UU Reading ｗwｗ.uukanｋshu.net compared with soy sauce beef and smoked chicken, the taste of eggs was different.

***

At about the same time, Li Yi woke up from thirst, drank a large glass of water, and shook his head: "The third brother and sister-in-law are so good at drinking, they almost drank to pieces for me."

When he got dressed and came out, he was ready to meet his third brother and sister-in-law for dinner, but he was told that the two had left half an hour ago.

"I don't want to have breakfast before leaving. I come and go in a hurry." Li Yi muttered and looked for food by himself.

Today, Zhuangzi started working in three shifts, making bricks, selecting coal, paving the cement playground, digging holes and laying foundations, making artifacts for cutting wheat, driving ducks to the river, penning the land to let chickens...

There are obviously so many people in Zhuangzi, but there are not enough.

Li Yi found strips of charcoal, drew pictures of clothes, and copied them according to the system. The clothes worn for work should not be robes.

Especially when wheat is threshed after harvest, injuries are prone to occur.

As for the injuries to the hands and arms due to being accidentally hit, there was no death.

Li Yi can handle this, but his skills are not very good.

My finger was knocked off, but there was no problem in reconnecting it. I want to restore its original function... Li Yi expressed regret.

The man from the tailor shop came to measure the man in Zhuangzi.

Looking at some of the drawings given by Li Yi, he said that they can be done and save fabric.

Zhuangzi's people are in a bad mood. Why do they need to spend money to make clothes? We can do it ourselves.

Li Yi not only spent money, but also added money.

"Five days, bring all the clothes, one day in advance, and get 10% more wages." Li Yi said to the people in the clothing store.

The people at the clothing store agreed repeatedly.

A woman from a military household next to her boldly interjected: "Bring us the scraps."

"I understand, I understand." The man from the clothing store continued to nod.
