Chapter 2509: Precious Items Are Expected by Foreigners

Li Yi glanced at Princess Yongmu: "Catch a few and eat them. There are them in the cave in Zhuangzi, Luoyang. You can get the Chinese medicine there."

Li Yi knows where to find it, at home.

He continued: "Renovate the cave and conduct artificial breeding. There is no need to put it outside and artificially create a dark environment. The kind of environment that can be raised is not as good as a cave."

He knew that the initially bred salamanders were delicious because they all chose caves with water or brought in clean stream water.

Later, they were raised in a pond. The water quality was poor and the artificial environment was small. Many salamanders went outside to swim.

At first they were fed live bait, then feed, and even hormones.

It can be sold after one year of cultivation, and the price is getting lower and lower...

Go to a good restaurant to eat, the taste is okay, once precious, it is well prepared.

When it becomes cheaper, any restaurant can provide it, and the chefs’ skills are different.

"Okay, okay!" Princess Yongmu was happy and caught it to eat. She hadn't eaten it yet.

"First publicize how to breed, and then publicize how to eat, otherwise it will be over if we don't catch the wild ones. Alas!"

Li Yi said and sighed, Chinese people eat too much, the key is not to be restrained.

There were laws in the Tang Dynasty regarding afforestation and prohibition of hunting, but they didn't exist in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, so it was casual.

Including the Northeastern hazel grouse, it was actually eaten and became a second-level protected animal.

It's really delicious. I've eaten both farmed and wild ones. No one cares about eating it abroad, as there are many abroad.

It's small, and foreigners think it has less meat. They don't know how fragrant it is, and maybe they don't know how to cook it.

Li Yi checked the information and found that after the Tang Dynasty, no one was willing to protect animals and plants, and all kinds of forests were cut down and turned into fields.

"There are more now. Let's catch them and give them a try." Li Longji clicked his lips.

The high-quality ambergris over there began to be divided and sent to pharmacies all over the Tang Dynasty. If not sold, it would be used to make incense. If you sell it, there is a cost for making incense.

There is an account of how much is sold, and the government can check who bought it and how much it was bought, just like arsenic and poppy paste.

After verification, if there is a problem, go to the drug store and give you some medicine. Your false accounting will become more popular.

Although incense can also calm the mind, people who are sick need it more.

"What should I do if it's black?" Bi Gou still felt a fishy smell on his hands.

"I will purify the black one and use it as a fixative for perfume. It will not affect the use. In the future, if there are more perfumes, I will make money by exporting them and pay 80% tax."

Li Yi finally said something that made Bi Gou happy. He wanted to sell perfume.

Tang Dynasty's perfumes are already very expensive. They come in glass bottles, and a small bottle of expensive orchid scent is more than a hundred cents.

If you want to export, can you do it without thirty or fifty kilograms of gold?

Other perfumes are also sold at high prices, and they have to pay taxes to Datang. Ambergris is used as a fixative to keep the fragrance long-lasting.

"It's done, it's done!" Bi Gou smiled with a big smile on his face.

"Brother Yi, let's eat hot pot. It's the autumnal equinox and it's cold in the morning and evening, so it's just right to eat hot pot."

Li Longji didn't want to continue reading, he was hungry.

The best ambergris is kept alone and used in Zhuangzi's traditional Chinese medicine. It is given to important people to eat, or it can be made into powder and burned with other incense.

Only the bad ones are extracted and used as fixatives, the best ones are not worth it.

It is not used much in perfume, accounting for 1.5 to 3/10,000 of the perfume.

A pound of ambergris can be used for a long time, whether it is used as a fixative, incense, or even eaten directly.

In fact, it is most useful to eat, 0.5 to 1 gram at a time, and 0.3 gram for children is enough.

With more than ten tons of ambergris, the Li family suddenly became rich and could be used to issue exchange coupons.

But no, it must be used medicinally.

When combined with other drugs, Huisu Powder can be made. The real Huisu Powder is not the kind with reduced prescriptions.

Use it when Angong Niuhuang Pill and Zhibao Dan don't work. It is a life-saving medicine.

However, it is always given to outside pharmacies and medical clinics. When the patient arrives at Lijiazhuangzi, this medicine is not used for first aid. The effect is slow, so Li Yi will take action.

"The sauerkraut is delicious." Princess Yongmu cooked the sauerkraut in a copper hot pot and turned it green.

"Put the sauerkraut jar in a cave, keep the temperature low, and react slowly, then the texture and taste will be good."

Li Yi said that pickling sauerkraut when the weather is hot is not as good as when the weather is cold.

At that time, he still used large plastic bags, one bag containing more than a hundred kilograms of cabbage, one bag on top of another, and he dug a hole with hundreds of bags and buried them with soil.

That sauerkraut is not delicious. In rural areas, it is pickled in large vats.

Later, when ordinary people moved into the city, they would pickle it themselves in large buckets of mineral water or purified water, the 4.5 liter or 5 liter kind.

Buy the cabbage, dry it outside first, cut it into shreds and put it in a bucket with salt water, and marinate it for dozens of days. If there are bubbles in the bucket, turn it around frequently to let the bubbles change positions.

In this way, we can eat sauerkraut. At that time, people from the Northeast went to Sanya and did this if they wanted to eat sauerkraut. They did not buy sauerkraut in plastic bags, and the taste and texture were much worse than those made by themselves.

The lower the temperature, the longer it takes, and the tastier it is.

"It's still comfortable to eat at home, but I always feel like I'm drifting outside."

Xiaolan cooked the mutton, but her eyes were fixed on the beef next to it. The beef felt good too.

Li Yi rinsed dried shredded tofu and coriander. He didn't want seafood. He ignored any crabs, prawns, oysters, etc. and wouldn't eat them.

Coriander is sweet after being rinsed, so you can eat it directly without dipping it in seasoning.

Li Longji held a small wine cup with three coins in his hand: "Brother Yi, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net is working hard outside, so I offer you a cup for my brother."

Li Yi quickly put down his chopsticks, held the cup in both hands, bowed down first, and then raised his head to drink up.

Li Longji happily did it and was in a happy mood.

Other ministers also had a good impression of Li Yi. At this position, he was not lacking in etiquette.

Li Yi picked vegetables to eat. He was tired of eating seafood at sea and needed to supplement chlorophyll, even if there were green plants on the yacht.

The other people who came down from the yacht were the same as Li Yi. They didn't touch seafood and only ate other things. Even drinking soup was more attractive than prawns.

"Xiao Yi, I will also toast you a cup." Li Dan brought a small wine cup over. He drank medicinal wine, one cup in the morning and one in the evening.

"Mr. Mu, drink slowly, don't drink it all." Li Yi drank another cup.

"Drink one more cup this morning." Li Dan said, drank it, and poured another cup.

Li Yi was very suspicious that Li Dan, the emperor, was just looking for an opportunity to drink one more cup of wine.

Usually restricted, the wine after soaking ginseng and wolfberry with other things was not bitter, but sweet.

The wine was soaked with 77 degrees, and it became 53 degrees after soaking. It tasted good.

"Xiao Yi's trip this time has allowed us to see the overseas situation. We know that there are many places that are still uninhabited. It is a good time to occupy them."

Li Rizhi also drank medicinal wine, but he drank wine soaked in poisonous snakes. He has caught a cold recently, and feels cold in the morning and evening.

He took a sip and dared not drink more.

Li Yi also took a sip. If he drank more, he would be drunk. He started drinking early in the morning and stayed drunk all day.

Liu Youqiu took a sip with him: "There is such a large place outside, with rich resources. If we send troops to occupy it, it will be the territory of the Tang Dynasty."

The others nodded. They all saw that the trees in Africa grew well. If they were to be cultivated there, they could grow food.

A large amount of wood can be used to build houses, and there are also many animals, so there is no shortage of game.
