Chapter 2394: Mutual Gifts, Not Exchanges
"Master Li, this time, in addition to the normal salt sales, I also brought some local specialties for His Majesty and the ministers."
Yang Huanjin couldn't figure out what Li Yi meant for a while, so he decided to study it in the evening and bring some things.
Ministers: "..."
You finally remembered our existence? I thought you were the prime minister, and only cared about His Majesty, King Song and Li Yi.
"What good things?" Li Yi looked impatient, as if he had never seen the world.
"There are three giant pandas, all of whom have babies, and the children are chubby. One family has two. We read the newspaper introduction and tried every means to let the giant pandas raise two babies."
Huang Xianrong first said Li Yi's favorite thing, which was also in Luoyang, and was given by hunters.
"The giant pandas separated before giving birth to babies, how can they still be a family?" Li Yi wondered.
"They can be a family." Huang Xianrong was sure.
"It makes sense, it took a lot of manpower and material resources, right?" Li Yi understood, it was hard to catch!
After the pandas mate, the Salt Gang and even other gangs dispatched people to capture the male pandas.
The female pandas kept an eye on them. After giving birth, if one gave birth to two babies, they would quickly provide them with food according to the newspaper.
When they come over, the male pandas will be kept together. Who cares if you want to separate them?
When they are sent to Li Dongzhu, they must be a family, reunited.
"Don't they fight each other?" Li Yi was ready to send someone to check.
"With food, we don't care about other things. We brought a lot of tender bamboo and bamboo shoots. One-fifth of a salt transport ship is filled with food for pandas."
Yang Huanjin answered simply, roughly and directly.
"Good idea." Li Yi agreed. This is the good thing about pandas. They take a lot of time to eat every day.
"In addition, like Tubo, we brought live yaks. We kept watering them along the way and cut some of their hair a little to prevent them from dying of heat."
"Okay, this farm can keep them. Send the order quickly and take them."
"Plus other medicinal herbs and Shu brocade, everyone has one, not just ours, but others have asked us to send them."
Yang Huanjin continued to say that he came here to give gifts, things for a large group of people.
Isn't this the source of the Yellow River occupied? The people in Shu have a better life and are less worried about war disasters.
Things from Tubo were also shipped over one after another, and trade between the two sides resumed. The big merchants in Shu benefited the most from it.
In order to express their support for the court, especially Li Longji and Li Yi, everyone raised two ships of various things.
The value of it is calculated to be more than 100,000 strings of cash, which is not paid by every household.
"It is a waste." Li Longji nodded. Yes, someone is thinking about him.
Turning his head, he said to Li Yi: "Brother Yi, please make arrangements to fill the boat on the way back."
Li Longji wanted to give rewards, but he didn't know what they were going to give him.
"Don't worry, brother San. There are things that we need them to help transport back."
Li Yi meant the same thing. He was indeed waiting for the big caravan from Shu to come and help take them away.
They were the seeds of crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn.
Some potatoes have already sprouted, but they are not planted in other places. Shu is suitable, so they must be sent there to continue to be cultivated.
In addition, there are some well-matched medicinal materials. According to the content of each medicinal material, it is more convenient to use. The amount recorded in the medical book can be directly used for medicine.
In addition, there are dried fruits such as pine nuts and hazelnuts from the northeast and grassland areas.
Salted fish, dried scallops, etc. sent from Haizhou.
Originally, it was to thank the people of Shu for their contributions during the war. Previously, a bunch of fireworks and diesel were sent in the name of Wen Tian Lan Xiang Pavilion.
"What is the current climate in Shu?" Li Longji was relieved. He was the emperor and it was impossible for him to easily ask for things from the people, except for local tribute.
Yang Huanjin and Huang Xianrong looked at each other and hesitated, not understanding what His Majesty wanted to ask.
"Are there any mushrooms?" Li Yi asked for help. Li Longji would not ask if it was cold or hot.
"Yes, I brought them this time. There are mushrooms all year round. In some places, if it suddenly gets cold, mushrooms will disappear, but they will come out again when it warms up a little.
In addition, bamboo and some vegetables grow well even in the snowy season in Chang'an, and there is no need for greenhouses.
Waiting for the railway of the canal to be repaired, it will be much easier to eat green vegetables here in winter."
Yang Huanjin understood now. It is most intuitive to answer the question about climate with crops.
"Logistics is the most important thing in the world!" Li Chengqi sighed, and said to Li Yi: "Is the steam engine ship useful downstream?"
"In special areas, if the sails are hung, it is similar to other ships. In flat areas, the speed is faster.
We can eat some fruits produced in Shu this year. I will mix some preservatives.
For fruits that need to be transported, pick those with intact appearance and no wounds after picking, soak them in preservatives, and then take them out, so that they can be preserved for a longer time.
When selling them in places, it is written in the newspaper that they must be soaked in water for a certain period of time, even warm water."
Li Yi began to consider the issue of preservatives, but they must be washed when eating, but lychees do not need to be used unless the hands that peel the skin always touch the mouth.
General preservatives form a layer of film on the surface of vegetables and fruits to prevent them from "breathing".
If they are transported here, if they are not washed, it is easy for people to eat too much and not be able to breathe.
Of course, it will not be reflected in a short period of time. Some people's physique does not care for a few years or more than ten years. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net
Nowadays, Lijiazhuangzi also uses glycerin to keep some things fresh. This glycerin is for medical use. Eat it. I guarantee you won’t have any problems, just diarrhea if you eat too much.
"Brother Yi, you must never redeem it." Li Longji's expression changed.
"Third brother, exchange, not exchange."
Li Yi was moved. Look, his father-in-law still cares about him.
You have to treat other people's daughters better, even if you cook braised pork alone every day, you are willing to do so.
It doesn't matter whether you're pretty or not, whether you have a good figure or not, yes, it doesn't matter.
Li Longji and others were talking about national affairs, and the children in the school were running around. They didn't care what they ate.
They just feel happy today, with a large group of people around them and just one bite of food.
The girl of the Wang family has already found someone to spread the news that she is going to Lijiazhuangzi, telling her family that she will not go back!
She has discovered that since the birth of her uncle's child, her status has plummeted.
Quanzi's direct grandson, the youngest son, the eldest grandson, not a granddaughter.
The Wang family only has a little boy so far. When I eavesdropped, he even said that he wanted to recruit a son-in-law.
With his younger brother, no one mentioned it again.
Let's go, follow the proprietor brother, and go to Lijiazhuangzi to learn the skills.
"Don't worry, we will come back every ten days. It will be very quick. We will send a special boat to bring you back. It is much faster than taking a detour, but big boats can't go there, so we can only go by small boats."
Guizang saw that the girl from the Wang family was not very happy, and comforted her beside him.
"It's okay if you don't come back. I don't want to come back." The Wang family girl was sad.
"Without the efforts of your family, you would not be where you are now, even if you have memorized the Analects."
The little girl Zhuo Zhuo is sensible and tells the other party, don't think that your family has abandoned you, what you enjoy is the benefit of your family.
