Chapter 693: Eating Raw Silkworm Silk Yourself Is the Best

The sun rose again. During the morning court session, Li Longji looked at Yuan Qianyao a few more times but said nothing.

"I ask that someone from the Honglu Temple who knows the language of the nine surnames of Tiele be sent to the Jianghu District to teach the language of the Tang Dynasty."

Bi Gou showed up. He sold the land to Li Yi at a low price.

Then he would wait for the terraces to be built quickly so that he could collect rent every year. Now there was a problem with language communication.

Privately, he owed Li Yi a favor. His teeth were all set by Li Yi.

Publicly, he wanted to make more money for the Ministry of Households. That was a lot of land.

"Yes!" Li Longji agreed.

Bi Gou stepped back. Yao Chong stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the Li family farm is collecting bean worms. At the same time, this morning's newspaper wrote about bean worm breeding. I think it can be tried."

Yao Chong took out a newspaper while speaking. Now there are four pages in a newspaper.

There are more advertisements, half a page, and other content has half a page.

Newspapers are more profitable. The price has dropped to three cents. Four long newspapers are three cents. They are printed on one side and can be written on the back.

One is to make money from newspaper advertising, and the other is to further reduce the cost of papermaking and printing.

Yao Chong picked out a newspaper and asked someone to present it.

Li Longji didn't touch it. He had read it long ago. His newspaper was the first one to be printed, and he immediately sent it on a special horse.

Of course, three copies were sent at a time, one for him, one for Queen Wang, and one for Baifu Hall.

When he was having breakfast, someone next to him was reading the newspaper. When he read the key points, he would take it in his hand and read it.

Last night he already knew that Li Yi fed many people insects, bean worms.

He pressed his hand on the newspaper: "Li's village has found a way to make bean worms edible. He said that the worms are like eggs and are good for the body."

He paused here and looked at the ministers.

Everyone nodded. Shrimp skin, dried shrimp, and shrimp meat are all insects in the sea. They can be eaten.

Some people now catch grasshoppers and fry them in oil. The situation in the southwest has been reported, and the locals are eating even more frightening.

"If you lose more than ten catties of beans, you will get more than a hundred catties of worms. The worms can be buried in the sand and can be used at any time. You should follow my example.

In the bean worm season, I eat two bean worms every day, stir-frying or stir-frying. Before stir-frying, I must blanch them in water.

Then I fry, grill, bake with salt, lightly bake, and stuff dumplings, wontons, and pies with three fresh fillings."

Li Longji has expressed his attitude. I eat it, and you all eat it with me, so that the people believe that this thing can be eaten.

I have also told you the production method. I am very knowledgeable about eating now.

Why not steam or stew it? Because it is disgusting to eat.

"It is better to stuff it, and you can't see the worms." Zhang Shuo stood up. He couldn't accept this.

"Bring the worms provided by Lijiazhuangzi." Li Longji took a deep breath and ordered.

There are worms, provided by Lijiazhuangzi, all tested, and there will be no problems eating.

The worms are alive, big green worms.

One on each tray, twisting there.

Li Longji was on top, and he grabbed some mustard and garlic juice mixed with chili oil under the table with his hand, quietly.

He picked up a bug with this hand, put it directly in his mouth, and chewed it calmly.

He put too much mustard and wanted to cry, but he held back.

"I'll do it." Lu Huaishen was the first to stand up. He grabbed the bug from the tray in front of him, put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it hard.

The ministers understood. Li Shimin had eaten locusts raw before.

That was a disaster, but now it is really eaten and can be eaten.

"My lords, I won't force it. If you think it is a bug, it is a bug. If you think it is a vegetable, it is a vegetable."

Li Longji said to everyone with a look of being easy to talk to.

At this moment, all the ministers were tacitly in agreement. They believed that His Majesty would not force it, because this is a vegetable.

That's right, no problem, what bug? Vegetable.

Everyone grabbed it, took a deep breath, and stuffed the bug into their mouths.

Each person ate a bug, standing there and enduring all kinds of psychological reactions. In fact, physiological reactions did not exist. It was the psychology that drove the physiology.

"I heard that the bugs from Lijiazhuangzi were specially fed with medicine, so it was more useful." Gao Lishi spoke at the critical moment.

He was afraid that someone would vomit, so he emphasized this sentence.

Sure enough, when everyone heard that Lijiazhuangzi had fed medicine and was good for that aspect, they were no longer disgusted and wanted to eat another one.

Li Longji picked up the tea bowl and drank a sip of water. It was too spicy and he almost couldn't hold it.

"My lords, it's not very delicious when it's raw, but it's delicious when it's cooked. As long as the people eat bugs, there is no harm as long as they are cooked, just like eating meat."

Li Longji waved his hand, and the palace maids brought tea cups up, one cup for each minister.

Everyone drank quickly. The bugs had a grassy smell, so they suppressed it with tea.

"Your Majesty, it's too difficult to eat raw. It's better to fry it. It's crispy." Taichang Qing Jiang Jiao said, he found that it was hard to swallow raw.

He is the brother of Jiang Hui, who wanted to be close to the people and gave weapons to the surrendered households in history.

The historical event did not happen, Li Yi stopped it.

He did not know that Li Yi did not have a good impression of him and his brother Jiang Hui.

Li Longji looked at him and said: "The best way is to mix the worms with flour and bake them into snacks. But the people do not have this condition. I will think of a way, and you should also work harder."

"How to eat is not important, what is important is publicity." Li Yi spoke to Princess Yongmu and Xiaolan during breakfast in Lijiazhuang.

There are bean worms for breakfast, which are blanched in water, then coated with flour and fried, with a layer of bread crumbs on the outside.

"I think the method of making is still important. This is better than the baked one last night." Xiaolan ate six worms in a row.

She wanted to eat more, it was delicious, but there were no more on the plate, there were ten in total, she ate six, Princess Yongmu and Li Yi ate two each.

Princess Yongmu was very quiet at this time, eating in small bites, always looking into the kitchen, wanting to see how the people in the kitchen cooked.

"Li Lang, you said yesterday that tussah silkworms can be eaten, what about mulberry silkworms?"

Princess Yongmu thought of the mulberry trees that everyone is planting now.

"Mulberry silkworms are allergic, and tussah silkworm cocoons are actually allergic, but not as serious as mulberry silkworms, so no one eats them. It's not that they don't want to eat them, but that eating them will kill people."

Li Yi was very patient and explained the difference between the two silkworm pupae.

"Li Lang, do you also have allergies when you eat worms?"

Princess Yongmu didn't understand, since she learned new scientific knowledge, she always wanted to explore.

"Mulberry silkworms are too small, how can you eat them without allergies? Tussah silkworms are the same size as bean worms.

During the reeling process, they must be boiled before they can be separated into silk threads, and then water with plant ash is needed.

At the end, the silk threads come out, and the pupae cannot be eaten. Mulberry silkworm pupae are small, and tussah silkworm pupae are large.

Now tussah silkworms can be cut into cocoons, but mulberry silkworms cannot be cut into cocoons. Mulberry silkworms are small, and cutting tussah silkworms will produce more broken silk threads, which is not conducive to weaving."

Li Yi introduced the processing technology, UU reading www. ｕuｋanshu.net In fact, neither type of silk is easy to reel.

In his era, the technology was advanced to the sky, so all the broken silk threads could be reeled out.

Otherwise, the pupae had to be alive, and the silk threads were broken. If the silk threads were connected, the pupae would die.

The cocoons were cut open for the live pupae, and the silk reeling was cut open, so how could the thread be continuously wound?

Princess Yongmu only understood 80% of the content, and she was very unhappy, and she didn't keep up.

She asked softly: "Do you want living or dead ones?"

"Dead ones, the dead ones will be used as fertilizer, and then they will be reeled out and sold to other places in exchange for benefits."

Li Yi chose to give up eating and increase exports. If they are not used for two or three years, the scale of the Tang navy will be large.

It's not like building an aircraft carrier, it will take a long time.
