Chen Xi felt that he had grasped the reason why the essence of heaven and earth contained in cabbage could not be absorbed. We can use this kind of cabbage to feed cattle and then eat beef. I actually really like to eat beef, but before I finish speaking, He was taken away.
Even now, with the construction of large ranches, the Han Dynasty no longer lacks large livestock such as cattle, and the number of cattle in the Central Plains is also constantly increasing, but Chen Xi blatantly said such things as eating cattle in front of a group of people. .
Although everyone present has eaten beef, and there was even something like beef pot at Zhuge Liang's wedding banquet today, there are some things that can be done but cannot be said in this era, and what Chen Xi said is over the line in this era. It is better to know the law and break it. Bar.
Even if the cattle can be killed and the beef can be eaten, don't make such a big show of it, let alone feed the cattle with this genius treasure, Chen Xi, are you crazy?
"Hey, hey, hey, I haven't finished yet. If you can't eat cows, you can feed pigs." Chen Xi, who was forked away by Jia Xu and Man Chong, screamed, while Cookie and others' eyes twitched crazily. You, Chen Xi, are the only ones who can say such things. This is a waste of natural resources.
Ginseng, snow lotus, etc. can't be compared with this kind of dish cultivated by the cookie boss. Do you know how precious this is, that it is actually used to feed pigs? Let me go, pigs eat better than us, that’s too much, Chen Xi!
"Zichuan was kidnapped. Let's go aside and talk about Han Mou." Liu Bei glanced at Chen Xi speechlessly. Should he say that it was really Chen Xi? He can even say something like "feed rare cabbage to pigs", that's enough!
"Wenhe, Boning, let it go, I was just joking." After Chen Xi was far away, he said to Jia Xu and Man Chong, "You two really don't understand humor."
"No, based on what we know about you, you would really do this." Jia Xu sighed and said, "Others may not do this, but if you have the chance, you will definitely not mind. Let’s give it a try, how did your big rooster and the dog with its inner qi leave the body come from, I still haven’t figured it out yet.”
"Didn't I say it? That chicken ate a locust with internal Qi separated from the body and became Qi Qi Chenggang. Heng Heng ate the divine stone and became internal Qi separated from the body. It has nothing to do with this, but I think my suggestion It makes sense, there is obviously a part of Chinese cabbage that we humans cannot absorb, so we can use it to raise cattle." Chen Xi suggested again.
At this time, the courtiers who were familiar with Chen Xi and the descendants of the Jingxiang wealthy family silently distanced themselves from Chen Xi. Is he really planning to use rare treasures to raise cattle? As expected of Chen Hou, his realm is different from that of ordinary people. Not on the same level at all.
"Can you change the topic?" Jia Xu felt that his stable mentality had been disrupted by Chen Xi. Why was everyone present shocked that the cabbage had the strength of the heaven and earth energy to become a gang? It's just you, Chen Xi. How about we feed this to cows?
"But I think what I said makes sense." Chen Xi shook his sleeves and shook Jia Xu and Man Chong away. They were just showing off, so Chen Xi shook his hands and they let go.
"Look at it, a cabbage as big as a plant, the strength of the heaven and earth essence that can be cultivated into a gang, can only condense the inner energy of a person after eating it. If you replace it with white rice, it will definitely condense the inner energy of a group of people. This difference is also It's too big, which means that cabbage is definitely not suitable for humans to absorb. We can replace it with cows or pigs that are suitable for absorbing the nutrients of cabbage." Chen Xi said plausibly.
"Sorry, we don't have enough cabbage for you to raise cattle." Cookie rolled his eyes and said, "But I think we can try it. Besides, you can cultivate this kind of thing yourself. You can grow a piece of it at home and use it. If you come here to raise cattle, no one will care about you.”
"The problem is that it's not enough to raise a cow, and if you plant it in a place like this, you can harvest one of this today and another of that tomorrow, and it will be eaten up before it grows up. How about we try it in Jiangnan." Chen Xi encouraged. Cookie, and Cookie smiled wryly.
"Okay, I will send you some of the cows I raised next year." Cookie said helplessly. The quality of the Tiandi Jingqi rice grown in Jiangnan is average, but it can also be used to feed cows. , if you grow slowly, just grow slowly. Anyway, cookies are raised to feed themselves, but cookies are weird. I haven't exposed them yet. Why do you, Chen Xi, know about it?
"Where's the wine?" Chen Xi said with a smile. He didn't believe that Cookie couldn't make the things he grew by himself.
"You can do it." Cookie looked at Chen Xi and said, "How about I give you some in private?"
"I just think you are too naive. You are just a professional engaged in improving seeds and popularizing agriculture. You don't know how to integrate agriculture and animal husbandry. And Zijing, an idiot, has not turned around and does not understand these things at all. If I were in Jiangnan , It’s long past time to engage in rice straw fermentation and breeding, let’s have a rice bran brewing association." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said to Cookie.
"Are you using it to the extent that there is no residue left?" Cookie said with surprise, "But if the straw is not returned to the field, I'm afraid it will cause damage to the soil fertility."
"Do we still care about this? We planted this area this year and harvested it all. Can we just plant it in another place next year? We in the Han Dynasty are not short of land now. You are just wasting it." Chen Xi said angrily, " I'm thinking that you can only raise a hundred strong cattle with those three families, and then you don't dare to raise them anymore, what are you afraid of, start a farm!"
"With you at the top, I dare to do this. Zijing has mentioned it before, but I am worried about the loss of soil fertility if the straw is not returned to the field, so I don't dare to do it on a large scale." Cookie said angrily, He, the Ji family, the Xu family, and the Zhou family raised less than 200 cows in total. These three families still wanted to take the lead because of Canghou, otherwise no one would dare to do it.
It’s not that they don’t have the knowledge to raise cattle with straw, but they are afraid of spoiling it. Chen Xi traced it and found that Cookie could withstand it, but the three of them combined couldn’t. If Cookie hadn’t been raised to eat, these three families would have thought of this. I don't dare to take action at all.
"Next year we will integrate agriculture, animal husbandry and wine. You can build as much land as you like in the south of the Yangtze River. If it doesn't work, just take turns. Anyway, it's all state-owned land. Just let the military personnel clear up wasteland and plant it back and forth." Chen Xi curled his lips and transmitted the message. He said, he is really too timid.
However, this also shows the deterrent power of the central government. As a pioneer, Cookie still has the courage to do something that may cross the line, but others do not have the courage to test it.
"If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have burned the straw and returned it to the fields before." Cookie said angrily, "The cattle, rice, and cabbage are all being escorted here from the official road."
Chen Xi's words made Jia Xu and others react instantly. Emotion Cookies had already tried raising cattle. In an instant, Jia Xu and others felt that the cart of cabbage in front of them no longer tasted good. I also want to eat beef.
Compared with the beasts with internal energy that separated from the body, beef actually tasted the best, not to mention beef with internal energy. Jia Xu swallowed his saliva involuntarily. This was not because of lack of concentration, but because of the lack of concentration. It's human nature.
"You actually escort cattle to Chang'an? There should be very few cattle with internal energy." Chen Xi said in confusion, and Cookie naturally turned his head and looked away.
"What are you feeding the cow?" Chen Xi was immediately shocked. Cookie's behavior of turning his head revealed a lot.
"Straw, nearly ten thousand acres of straw have been fed away." Cookie said with some embarrassment. It is actually very simple to have inner Qi, especially for animals. As long as the accumulation reaches a certain limit, it is not like that of humans. Willpower level, so it’s just a matter of simple accumulation.
The straw that can produce rice with the essence of heaven and earth actually also has the essence of heaven and earth. At most, the rice content is higher and the other parts are relatively lower. However, the body shape and weight of rice and the body weight of straw, since animals have The internal energy just accumulates, so feed it in large quantities. Nearly ten thousand acres of straw have been eaten...
In fact, a big problem here is that the essence of heaven and earth contained in straw is actually the same as that of rice itself, but people with straw cannot absorb it.
"It takes nearly 10,000 acres to raise so much..." Chen Xi had a headache, "Okay, it's just reusing waste anyway, so it's not a loss. When will the cows arrive?"
"It will definitely arrive before the year. After all, it has to be sent to Chang'an." Cookie said with some embarrassment, "Actually, I discovered a big secret, that is, if you rely on eating to gain inner energy, the food you eat will The internal energy and the absorbed part are far out of proportion.”
"I've known it for a long time, but isn't it simple and controllable?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said. Chen Xi has known for a long time that what you eat and the nutrients you absorb are two different concepts. "If you combine the two, It’s better than walking on one leg.”
"What I mean is, in this case, if you use cabbage to raise cattle, the cattle can absorb 5% of the total amount, but we can only absorb 5% of the total amount when we eat cattle. The longer the chain, the more The more you lose," Cookie said with a sigh.
"This is very clear." It's not like Chen Xi has never studied the food chain, so of course he knows it.
"So I think we should not waste it and just eat cabbage." Cookie said with a pitiful expression. Chen Xi was quite speechless, thinking that it took humans tens of thousands of years to become the world's hegemon and have the ability to eat all kinds of meat. Power, the result is now asking me to go back and eat grass. Sorry, I can't do it. I really can't do it. I want to eat meat!
"So I think we should stop doing this and just use straw to raise some cattle. I think with the current planting scale in Jiangnan, it will be no problem to raise thousands of cattle next year." Cookie walked along with the flow. , after all, it’s okay to stand here all the time. His identity is destined that as long as he stands here, others must accompany him, and the other side will send a message to Chen Xi.
"The difference is too far, thousands of them. Not to mention the common people, even these guys in Chang'an are not enough." Chen Xi shook his head and said, "What's more, to supply, we must also maintain the supply of front-line soldiers. However, once A thousand heads are not enough for extra meals.”
"You don't know how much straw these cows eat in a day. I've calculated. If you raise such a thing, not counting other things, it can eat five or six tons just by eating the remaining straw. How to raise it?" Cookie He also had a headache. He had previously estimated that the rice straw contained the essence of heaven and earth, and it might be as satisfying as eating Tongdou, which contained the essence of heaven and earth. As a result, the cow ate even more vigorously and did not stop at all.
Chen Xi had nothing to say. If he was eating in this way, he felt that he had to calm down. In his impression, a normal cow would eat half of this amount in a year. This cow must be crazy.
"These are still ordinary cows. After they have internal energy, they can just eat ordinary feed. If they eat this food, they can eat five or six times as much as before. Why do I only raise so many? It's because I later found out that I couldn't afford it. ." Cookie said angrily, what could he do to make it so edible? He was also very surprised.
You must know that earlier, Cookie was very proud to say that if I raise a cow with internal energy separated from the body, and throw thousands of tons of straw with the essence of heaven and earth into it, there will be no problem, and the pile will be piled up.
Then God slapped Cookie on the face so much that it hurt. Not to mention the inner Qi left the body, he didn’t even have the ability to practice Qi to become a gang. Later, Cookie even took the initiative to reduce the number of cattle. Before, he was thinking about so many fields in his family. It should be okay to secretly use one-tenth of the straw, but after eating all the way without any results, the cookie took the initiative to set fire to the straw, and I didn't dare to continue playing.
"Is it so difficult?" Chen Xi was stunned. "In this case, how did a beast of that size in the mountains come from? This is wrong."
"I don't know either, but based on my current situation, there may be other reasons for the beasts in the mountains. Or there are indeed many sacred stones in the mountains, or plants containing the essence of heaven and earth. Otherwise, the beasts can't It may become the internal energy leaving the body." Cookie used his own realistic conclusion to give Chen Xi his final conclusion.
"In this case, it would be very interesting. Let's attend Kong Ming's wedding first. Then we can compare the things we collected later. Our ancestors may have left us a lot of things." Chen Xi said to Cookie through a message. .
"I have also collected some things, and I will share them when the time comes." Qiao Qiao nodded slightly. He had spent the past few years in vain. Even though he was constantly studying mulberry trees, the circle he came into contact with was really too big. From princes and generals to peddlers and lackeys, Chen Xi was far inferior to Cookie in terms of face-to-face contact, and those people generally knew everything about Cookie.
In Lanchi Palace, Liu Tong was eating cabbage and gestured to Bai Qi twice, "The Marquis of Huaiyin is here to eat cabbage. Let me tell you, this cabbage is particularly delicious and super crispy."
"You go ahead and eat. I don't know which restaurant offered you such a rare delicacy." Bai Qi looked at the steamed rice in Liu Tong's bowl, the various cabbages on the table, and the sliced meat. Everything exudes the brilliance of the essence of heaven and earth, and is extremely silent. He is not Han Xin, and he cannot do anything to compete with the other party for food.
