"Can the imperial court order it to be collected?" Zhu Yuanzhang did not doubt what the chief said, he was considering the scale.
"Your Majesty, the nutritional value of grasshoppers is actually far greater than that of pork and chicken, but people are not willing to accept it.
So here is a question, why doesn’t everyone accept it?
Because there are many people everywhere who won’t catch grasshoppers when they see them while walking.
Because they can't make a fire in the wild and roast it like children.
This is a problem of poor cognition, which can also be said to be a problem of poor information, because..."
The head of the village came over for dinner today, but he didn’t think about what to eat. Where can’t he eat? There are places open twelve hours a day in Xiaqiu Village, so there is no shortage of food.
He was invited yesterday to make up three hours of lessons with Hanhan.
Hanhan does not teach to make money, nor does he need to attract the attention of children in class. He teaches a lot of things one-on-one.
Because today he is going to fry grasshoppers and cicadas, so he will definitely talk about this topic.
“Actually, it’s the lack of cooking tools and seasonings. Agriculture is the cornerstone of people’s survival, industry is the cornerstone of agriculture, and commerce is the means to make Ming Dynasty’s resources come alive.
In this case, if it is profitable to purchase grasshoppers and cicadas, let... the people from the prince's and princess's mansions collect them.
Then unify management and sales, and finally distribute profits in a unified proportion. So good! "
Zhu Yuanzhang listened to what the chief had to say and decided to let everyone in the palace participate, including Nvwa.
After hearing this, the head of the village sighed softly, knowing that someone was going to die.
There are also competitions for interests in the palace, including some purchases and the distribution of things.
Now that boys and girls have their own places open to the outside world to purchase things, there will be room for maneuver in the process.
Some babies are not yet one year old, and some are only a few years old. What do they know? Naturally, it is arranged by others.
The head of the village knew that Zhu Yuanzhang could not kill his own children. If anything happened, he would kill the person responsible for the children.
Those palace maids and eunuchs, if they have any selfish motives and want to get some benefits from it, they will be ruined.
…
Zhu Yuanzhang is organizing people to have a barbecue, and the same is true for Xu Da from Lincheng.
All the soldiers are very tired and cannot recover in three or five days.
After occupying Helin City, Xu Da actually didn't want to fight, and the soldiers thought the same way.
If Helin City is not captured, it will be another state.
The soldiers had psychological expectations and fatigue periods. Except for the scouts who had to go out, no one else wanted to pursue them.
In the past few days, everyone has been sorting out the things Bei Yuan left behind and recording them one by one.
It rained heavily during the day today. It was very heavy. Anyway, the cavalry couldn't even think of a surprise attack.
The situation given by the scouts is that the Beiyuan army cannot be seen fifty miles away. This is the farthest scout team.
"I hope there won't be any mess when I go back." Lan Yu was worried while eating barbecue.
"We're holding the jade seal! Whether it's real or fake, take them all back. I don't believe anyone dares to confuse right and wrong!"
Li Wenzhong had the most confidence. He was Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew.
"Let's take good care of the cattle and horses now and wait for the court's order. I don't know how to arrange so many animals. The tents are too scattered."
Feng Sheng was worried about the camp. There were 200,000 cattle and horses. They needed to eat grass, so the soldiers spread out and set up camps. One camp was responsible for a group of animals.
If Bei Yuan suddenly turned around and attacked, the scattered army would suffer.
"It doesn't matter. If they really call me back, I'll be happy. It's because they came back on their own, not because I don't keep my word."
Xu Da didn't care. He put the fusiliers in the city and could ride to reinforce them at any time.
As long as Beiyuan sends people to fight, he will continue to chase Aiyou Shilitala and bring him back alive or dead.
It is useless to have a small number of people from the Northern Yuan Dynasty. If there are more people, once they fail, they will not have the strength to annex other tribes.
Han Zheng took a sip of wine: "When I came out, I heard people say that livestock would be raised here, and manpower should be arranged to manage it.
Not only near Helin City, but also in Hetao on several fields of the Yellow River, a little north of Xi'an, and Youyan in Peiping.
It's a pity that a large number of camels were taken away by them, otherwise we would have many more camels. "
"Camels have good endurance and can run very fast. When they go further north, they don't have camels and rely only on horses, so it's not easy for them to survive."
Fu Youde also likes camels, which are more useful than horses in many cases, especially in desert areas.
A horse can't last a few days if it's hungry or thirsty, but a camel can last for half a month. If there is water, the camel can last longer.
"Who will take over these animals in the future? We will take gold, silver, jewelry, silks and other items back together.
It is estimated that it will be the end of the year when all the handovers are completed, and the remaining soldiers will be given more benefits.
Let’s not eat canned food now, right? There is also wine and meat floss left for them. "
Xu Da knew that he would definitely go back and bring the jade seal with him. Some soldiers would be waiting here for the imperial court to send someone to manage the livestock.
The prisoners were naturally taken away together, and the remaining baggage, such as fried noodles, had to be carried by the team during the march.
After the war, everyone wanted to go back as soon as possible. Anyone who stayed would feel uncomfortable. The best way was to give them good things.
Several generals looked at each other, not sure who could lead the team here.
"I'll stay! Give me the flintlock team." Fu Youde took the initiative and made a contribution.
When Xu Da was about to leave, the Eastern Route Army led by Li Wenzhong did not fight much against the Yuan soldiers. He had to fight all the way with the partial troops of the Western Route Army.
Obviously he is more familiar with the fusiliers and can lead the team well.
"Looking at the court's arrangements, it's useless for us to talk here. It rained very well during the day.
The surrounding rivers have swollen, and the grass eaten by livestock can grow faster. There will be more mosquitoes.
Xiaqiu Village is so powerful, why didn’t you think that we would be bitten by mosquitoes outside? "
Li Wenzhong felt that the topic was too dull, so he wanted to talk about something interesting.
"I was given soap. If you are bitten by a mosquito, apply some soapy water. It will also work. You have to apply it in time. If you apply it after a long time, it will be worse."
"Yes, let's talk to Xiaqiu Village when we go back. We can't just give them alcohol or something. It's not easy to go out to fight!"
"That's right, Xiaqiu Village owes us, and we fight for Xiaqiu Village."
Everyone talked about Xiaqiu Village and let Xiaqiu Village bear all the blame.
…
'Snapped! "There are mosquitoes outside, but you are smart enough to light a lot of mosquito-repellent incense on the bridge."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was eating skewers, raised his hand and swatted a mosquito to death. He looked around and saw that there were still mosquitoes flying.
"Your Majesty has many women and children here, so some spray medicines cannot be used. A kind of toilet water in our village contains mugwort ingredients, which can repel mosquitoes.
It just has a pungent smell, and babies will cry if they smell it. Ordinary soothing incense cannot be given to babies. "
The head of the village said that he had nothing to do. He had the stuff, but it was subject to conditions.
