Good Life in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 471 Pepper and Cabbage

"Why doesn't it matter?" Gan Jing disagreed: "This thing can resist the cold, so it can protect the soldiers in northern Xinjiang from the cold!"

"I just don't know how the cultivation is going?"

"It's so cold-resistant, I'm afraid it was planted in the crater?"

All the ministers are discussing in full swing!

Li Jiyang said helplessly: "Actually, you can plant this anywhere you want."

Everyone: "...!"

Many people are interested in fresh species.

Because when he went to court again, Yingzheng got a piece of information about the cultivation and maintenance of peppers.

In fact, it is a new agricultural product.

However, this agricultural product is very effective against the cold, and the soldiers at the border are blessed!

They discussed it all day, and when they were having dinner at night, Ying Zheng asked him, "Apart from chili, what else is there?"

"A lot!" Li Jiyang thought for a while: "Are you short of food?"

"Well, if there are fresh vegetables that are easy to store, everyone can eat them fresh in winter." Ying Zheng didn't think much about it.

As a result, Li Jiyang thought of it!

"There is a vegetable called cabbage!" Li Jiyang thought of one: "That can produce tens of millions of catties per mu."

Ying Zheng was drinking soup, when he heard the words, he vomited immediately!

Li Jiyang: "...!" A cabbage can't be so excited, can it?

"At present, the yield of cabbage is tens of millions of catties per mu. Is that cabbage essence?" Ying Zheng thought for a while: "And the cabbage is not big, where did the tens of millions of catties come from?"

"Is there any cabbage at this time?" Li Jiyang thought for a while, "Why haven't I eaten it?"

"Aren't you eating?" Ying Zheng pointed to the plate.

When Li Jiyang saw it, it was obviously a big rapeseed!

In ancient times, rapeseed was divided into different sizes, the big ones were called cabbage, and the small ones were called rapeseed!

"That's not right!" Ying Zheng reacted instantly: "The yield of cabbage per mu is so big?"

Li Jiyang thought for a while: "Are we talking about the same dish?"

Ying Zheng: "...!"

An emperor, a queen, didn't even understand cabbage!

Li Jiyang said faintly: "I'm not talking about big rapeseed, I'm talking about cabbage!"

Ying Zheng pointed to the big rapeseed: "I'm talking about it...."

"This..." Li Jiyang suddenly thought of the combination of ancient big rapeseed and mustard greens in the wild, and only then did cabbage be born!

Before cabbage, the ancients called big rapeseed cabbage, which is the name in the south!

Li Jiyang popularized Chinese cabbage knowledge to Ying Zheng, and Ying Zheng asked him, "Do you have seeds?"

"Yes." In fact, there are even formed Chinese cabbages in the space, but they have not been taken out because there are none outside.

"Let everyone grow peppers and Chinese cabbage!" Ying Zheng made a final decision.

"Cabbage is easy to grow, and it matures quickly." The various seeds in his space are all evolved to perfection, just like the optimized seeds of later generations.

The state of Qin now orders and prohibits, and it is not impossible to implement the policy of planting new vegetables, but at the top, Gan Jing and the others feel that instead of letting the common people rigidly stipulate what to plant, it is better to let them actively plant new species.

But how to take the initiative?

"It would be great if there are ready-made peppers and cabbage." Fan Zeng's words made Yingzheng instantly have a solution after hearing it.

Because there is nothing to do in winter, the sales of newspapers are better. Li Jiyang's Dafeng Harvest Grain Store is the foundation, so it does not advertise, but today's newspapers are a little different.

Today is a rest, and the winter is long. After Gan Jing woke up in the morning, Gan Luo came over. Now Gan Luo is married, and his daughter-in-law has a big belly, and she is raising a baby at home.

"Why did you come here so early?" These days, Gan Jing ate his own breakfast. Gan Jing never thought that Gan Luo would come to have breakfast with him instead of accompanying his daughter-in-law.

"Father, look!" Gan Luo came over for a reason, and he pointed an advertisement in the newspaper to Gan Lei.

Gan Jing took a look, and it turned out to be a newly opened vegetable shop!

Vegetable shops are not uncommon in Xianyang City, but it is not very good to open a vegetable shop in winter, because it is best in summer, when the vegetables are all down, and there is no shortage of goods in the shop.

But this chain vegetable store is called "Fresh Vegetable Store", and the goods they buy and sell are really fresh enough. It is said that it sells fresh vegetables at "affordable prices", and this dish is called "Chinese Cabbage"!

Cabbage is cabbage, how did it become Chinese cabbage?

No matter how big it is, how big can it be?

The point is that nobles usually provide fresh vegetables in winter, and it would be nice if commoners could eat dried and pickled vegetables.

But this restaurant can provide unlimited Chinese cabbage!

Fresh and juicy, not dried Chinese cabbage!

What is the background of this house?

Such a big breath?

Gan Jing's family had no business, so Li Jiyang forcibly recruited people into the gang, distributed shares to their family, and asked people to deliver carts of vegetables to the mansion every ten or eight days, so even in winter, they would not be short of vegetables. Eat green vegetables.

But his lack does not mean that others do not lack.

Not every Li Jiyang's family gave it away, of course it was given to those with a good relationship, but those with a bad relationship, such as Li Si's family, never gave it away!

There are also some officials from nobles, but Li Jiyang treats them indifferently, and in terms of friendship, he is not very friendly.

So these people are big buyers of winter vegetables.

As far as this is concerned, the supply is still in short supply. Although Li Jiyang studied archaeology, he also knows that the hunger marketing of later generations has never been sufficient.

Business is naturally good every year.

"Does his family have Chinese cabbage?" Gan Jing looked at it for a long time, and finally noticed something.

It says there are fresh Chinese cabbage!

Gan Luo said: "The new species that was just mentioned a few days ago has appeared today!"

"I'm afraid this is His Majesty's handwriting!" Gan Jing guessed it all at once: "Everyone is thinking about how to let the commoners take the initiative to plant it. Don't think about it now. Everyone is used to eating it, so naturally someone will plant it."

Not only Gan Luo noticed, but other people also noticed. Originally, everyone thought how big cabbage could be?

Although it is a fresh vegetable, it is not expensive to sell, and it costs one yuan per tree.

Zhang Ping and the others also sent people to buy fresh ones, what do you want to see?

In the end, everyone was dumbfounded when they saw the things they brought back!

The oldest one weighs at least a few kilograms!

Three days later, every vegetable store had Chinese cabbage!

The original big rapeseed has been changed to small cabbage, this is the real "Chinese cabbage", worthy of the word "big"!

The imperial chefs in the palace immediately researched many dishes based on Chinese cabbage.

Li Jiyang even asked a border guard to deliver ten carts of Chinese cabbage, all of which were fresh and fresh and durable.

Eight days after the Chinese cabbage was on the market, a wealthy businessman came to the newly opened fresh vegetable store. There were many people queuing up to buy the fresh vegetable store. As soon as he came in, he jumped to the front of the line and said to the salesperson: "You guys How many Chinese cabbages are there? Master, I will cover them all!"

Everyone became angry when they heard it, and they also wanted to eat fresh vegetables!

But most of the people queuing up are civilians. The nobles have already bought a lot, and they bought a lot. Basically, they are pulled to the mansion one by one, and there is no need to queue for some money.

Although civilians eat a lot, they can’t buy too much at one time, for fear of not being able to store them. As many as there are."

"Hey!" The wealthy businessman straightened his back, "Then let's get [-] first!"

"Okay, please pay a deposit of [-] won, and please leave your address..." The salesman was not at all timid, and did business.

What a joke, their backstage is the current queen, Qin Anjun!

Ten thousand yuan is not difficult for a wealthy businessman. What he wants is to buy out this Chinese cabbage: "Do you have so many big cabbages?"

"The boss didn't say it, but you can have as much as you want, it should be true." Because that's what the boss told them, anyone who buys will sell!

And the price remains the same, even if many people come to buy it, the price is still a dollar!

In fact, this is already very high in Li Jiyang's eyes. One won coin is equivalent to ten yuan in later generations, and one won coin can be exchanged for ten cloth coins.

The newspaper only costs one piece of cloth and ten yuan per head of cabbage, which is already very high in Li Jiyang's opinion.

In later generations, the price of a Chinese cabbage is only three to five yuan, and it is rare to see more than five yuan!

"Then give me [-] trees!" The wealthy businessman tentatively asked, "Are there any available?"

"Yes!" The salesman didn't even hesitate!

The people behind heard that the rich man wanted to buy [-] trees, and they were afraid that they would not have enough to buy, but they still had them!

The car came over and delivered the cabbage according to the address left by the rich businessman. The rich businessman did not place the order of [-] plants.

But the next day, the wealthy businessman came again, and this time he really placed an order for [-] Chinese cabbages, and the salesman actually took it!

He followed his mentor to the archeology of the Liao tomb in the northeast, where he ate the most authentic sauerkraut stewed pork vermicelli!

They are full of food!

Even the tutor ate a lot!

Vegetables, sour, can you still eat them?

"Also, remember the pepper I got for you? Chop that up..." Li Jiyang has only eaten spicy cabbage, but he has never cooked it, but the description can still be described. As for the research?It's up to the chefs.

Soon after, there was another thing besides Chinese cabbage, which was called pepper.

Dried peppers, red and red dried peppers; fresh peppers, green, fresh peppers!

Grind dried chili into powder, put sesame seeds on it, and pour a spoonful of hot soybean oil on it, it becomes a good seasoning material, and everything is delicious in cold salad.

The empress dowagers of the two palaces especially like side dishes mixed with chili oil. For this reason, the imperial chef has developed a series of red oil side dishes!

Empress Dowager Zhao Ji prefers to eat vegetables fried with green peppers. Scrambled eggs with green peppers, fried pork slices, etc. have become the latest favorite dishes of Changle Palace.

And the emperor's brother likes to eat spicy cod!

I think this has a taste, and the cod is also delicious, because of the chili and bean paste, the fishy smell is gone.

What is popular in the palace has always been popular, and the folks follow suit. Nowadays, the folks eat chili in large quantities. In this cold winter, chili and cabbage have become popular vegetables in Qin.

Li Jiyang had already sent dried and green peppers to the border, and he could not be left behind in the army at any time.

Chinese cabbage sells well, and peppers are also good, but after all, peppers do not take up as much space as Chinese cabbage, and fresh peppers cannot be stored, at most three or four days, and they will rot after seven days.
