Chapter 188 Everything else is easy to say
Lin Xuan said with a smile: "When you go outing, I wonder if I can bring some beef?"
When he was going to go outing, he had a barbecue in the wild.
Everything else is easy to make, but beef is not.
Many people may think that there are many cattle in the grassland, and they can't understand why Lin Xuan wants to eat beef, so why doesn't he just buy it.
In ancient China, the farm cattle in the south were buffaloes, while the cattle in the north were mostly yellow cattle.
The cattle in the north were originally obtained from the grasslands.
Many people think that grassland cattle are untamed and cannot be used for farming.
In fact, this kind of statement is wrong. All animals are wild at first, and now the domesticated chickens, ducks, geese, pigs and cattle are all captured by humans and raised in captivity.
Aren't bison more difficult to tame than prairie cattle?
Since bison can be tamed, why can't prairie cattle be tamed?
In fact, the real reason is that the nomads in ancient times did not raise a large number of cattle at all.
Grassland cattle are aggressive, not conducive to management, and eat more. Compared with them, it is more cost-effective to raise sheep.
Another reason is that they don't want to sell to Datang.
Just as the Tang Dynasty restricted the flow of salt and iron into the Tang Dynasty, the grasslands will also restrict the flow of war horses and cattle into the Tang Dynasty.
So in ancient times, beef was rarer than some game.
Watching some old-fashioned TVs, you can easily buy a few catties of beef, and those are all fake.
Qin Huaidao and the others are a little speechless, aren't you talking nonsense with your eyes open?
How precious are the people to cattle?I am tired, and I am reluctant to let the cow be tired, let alone exhausted to death.
In addition, with the Zhenguan plow now, plowing the land is much easier than before, so why would the cattle die from exhaustion?
"Lin Xuan, why don't you take me with you when you go outing?" Yuchi Baolin said with a straight face.
He mainly wanted to eat beef, there was no other way, who told his father not to learn from Cheng Yaojin.
"We're going on an outing with the princess, why are we taking you there?" Lin Xuan gave Yuchi Baolin a white look.
What the hell, who goes on a date with a light bulb.
Yuchi Baolin said: "I just want to eat some beef, don't worry, I won't disturb you."
Lin Xuan said angrily: "You want to eat beef, why don't you ask Cheng Chuliang for some, and eat slowly at home? Do you want to follow us?"
Yuchi Baolin patted his head and said: "Chu Liang, your cattle are dead, you have to give me some."
"And me!" Li Deju and Qin Huaidao said quickly.
Cheng Chuliang nodded and said, "No problem."
A cow weighs hundreds of catties of meat, and the current weather cannot keep it for a few days.
After everyone was full of wine and food, they went home.
……
The Cheng Chumo brothers returned home.
Cheng Chuliang pulled Cheng Chumo and said: "Brother, help me to talk to Dad about the cattle."
"Isn't it very straightforward to promise you just now? Let me talk about it now?" Cheng Chumo said angrily.
Cheng Chuliang said obsequiously: "Brother, you go and talk, Dad will agree more easily, if I go, I will definitely scold you again."
"I won't be scolded if I go?" Cheng Chumo said angrily.
If the eldest son of another family, according to Cheng Chumo's age, the parents in the family would listen to some of his opinions.
But it was completely unreasonable for them to have Cheng Yaojin as their father.
do you have any opinion?OK, it will be gone after the fight.
"Brother, if you don't tell me, I'll tell dad that you came back yesterday and went to Pingkangfang first." Cheng Chuliang threatened.
"you…"
Cheng Chumo gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll talk about it. But if you threaten me with this matter in the future, let's see how I deal with you."
"Brother, don't worry, as long as you help me get this done, I'll pretend I don't know about it." Cheng Chuliang promised.
"Remember what you said, let's talk to dad now." Cheng Chumo said.
Cheng Chuliang was taken aback, and said, "I want to go too?"
Cheng Chumo said angrily: "This is your business. Do you want me to go alone? It's fine if you don't go. You can say whatever you like about that matter."
"Okay, okay, can't I go with you?" Cheng Chuliang said quickly.
The two brothers came to the living room together, Cheng Yaojin was drinking, and the table was full of bones left over from eating meat.
"father!"
"belch…"
Cheng Yaojin hiccupped and asked, "You guys are back, have you eaten yet? If you haven't eaten, have a drink with the old man."
"Father, we've already eaten." Cheng Chumo said.
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said, "Since we've eaten, why should we go? Don't disturb the old man for a drink."
"Father, we have something to tell you." Cheng Chumo said.
Cheng Yaojin put down the wine bowl he just picked up, stared wide-eyed and asked, "Did you guys cause trouble outside again?"
The two Cheng Chumo brothers quickly shook their heads and said, "Father, we didn't cause any trouble."
When Cheng Yaojin heard that there was no trouble, he took a sip from the wine bowl and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Father, do you want to eat beef?" Cheng Chumo said carefully.
"boom!"
Cheng Yaojin slapped the wine bowl on the table fiercely, and cursed: "I tell you, if you dare to catch the cattle's attention, I will break your legs."
Although he likes to eat beef, he would get a few cows to eat every year during Chinese New Year.
But you have to be careful with everything. Now is the time for spring plowing. What would Li Shimin think if he moved the cattle?
Usually when he kills cattle, he will give some to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin just pretends not to know.
It's also impossible to treat Cheng Yaojin because of a few cows.
But when killing cattle during spring plowing, Li Shimin was completely ignored.
"Father, it's not that we want to eat." Cheng Chumo said quickly, and told Cheng Yaojin what Lin Xuan said.
Cheng Yaojin said: "You mean that Lin Xuan is going to take Princess Changle for an outing, so can you bring Princess Qinghe out by the way?"
The two Cheng Chumo brothers nodded.
Cheng Yaojin thought for a while, and said: "The old man knows, you go back first, and tell the old man when you want cattle."
His title has no way to go up, and what he is thinking about now is his three sons.
He doesn't have to worry about Cheng Chumo, he can just inherit his title in the future.
He was worried about the other two sons, so he asked Li Shimin to marry the princess for Cheng Chuliang's consideration.
This will not only improve the relationship between the Cheng family and the royal family, but more importantly, the son-in-law will be knighted when they get married.
He just needs to make some contributions and earn a title for Cheng Chubi.
Many people wondered, if he is a prince, the emperor has nothing to reward him?
In fact, it is not the case. The title of the Duke of the State is also particular, and it can also increase the food.
In addition, you can also reward your son.
Cheng Yaojin has also heard that some princesses have bad tempers, and some sons-in-law are often angry with the princesses.
When he was around, Princess Qinghe might be jealous of him and would not show Cheng Chuliang's face.What if he's gone?
Therefore, he felt that he owed Cheng Chuliang a little. If he could get along with Princess Qinghe in advance, it would be good for them in the future.
As for a cow, it was not a big deal to him.
Li Shimin to blame?
Just kidding, your two daughters also ate it, so why blame me?
……
Seeing Lin Xuan's return, Steward Lin quickly said, "My lord, His Royal Highness sent someone to ask you to visit the Chang'an government office."
"Did you say something?" Lin Xuan asked.
Butler Lin said: "The visitor didn't say anything, he just told you to let the young master go."
"Okay, I see, let's go now." Lin Xuan said.
Li Chengqian has to be bothered about asking Li Li to confront him.
If Li Chengqian doesn't send someone, he will go there.
Lin Xuan came to the Yamen of Chang'an Mansion, and under the leadership of the Yamen servants, he met Li Chengqian.
"I see His Highness the Crown Prince, but I don't know why His Highness called me here?" Lin Xuan asked.
Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Didn't you ask Gu to post a notice to recruit doctors? There are already quite a few people, when will you meet?"
"Your Highness, how many people are there now?" Lin Xuan asked.
Li Chengqian said: "The attraction of a thousand pieces of gold is still very strong. Up to now, thousands of people have come to register."
"So much?" Lin Xuan was stunned.
Thousands of people, when will Sun Simiao go for the interview.
Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Gu has already asked people to investigate. Except for dozens of people with good medical skills, most of the rest are people with mediocre medical skills or no medical skills at all."
Lin Xuan was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your thoughtful consideration."
In this way, only a few dozen people need to be interviewed.
"His Royal Highness, please send someone to notify those dozens of people with good medical skills, and ask them to go to the Huimin Medical Center in three days and find Daoist Sun to take part in the assessment." Lin Xuan said.
He also doesn't know medical skills, so Sun Simiao still needs to do the interview.
Li Chengqian nodded and said, "Okay, Gu knows."
Lin Xuan said with some embarrassment: "I have something to ask Your Highness for help."
Li Chengqian said with some vigilance: "Let's talk, as long as you don't let the lonely girl come out, everything else is easy to talk about."
Thank you Boyi Baby, the monthly ticket of only the heart is not in love, thank you for your support!
