Da Qin: Destroyed the Xiongnu at the beginning

Soon, the roasted whole pig, carefully cooked by the chef of the Prince's Palace, gave off a rich aroma, which completely attracted the attention of Ying Zheng and the courtiers.

"This aroma seems to be better and more mouth-watering than the roasted piglet."

Ying Zheng twitched his nose and said.

Under the influence of Fu Su, Ying Zheng, who was originally not very interested in food, now has a bit of a gourmet attitude, and praised him.

"Mainly because of the addition of various spices.

Fusu said with a smile:"Many of these spices are sent from Tianzhu County, and they have their own advantages with those commonly used in Da Qin. After mixing, not only the aroma is more fragrant, but the taste is also better." Fusu said with a slight smile.

"Indeed, today the most popular specialty in Tianzhu County is this spice"

"A pound of spices worth only one or two yuan in Tianzhu County can be sold for more than ten times the price once shipped back to Daqin, and the supply exceeds demand. Nei

Shiteng said with a smile:"According to statistics from the Nei Shifu, last month, the commercial tax from the Tianzhu spice trade alone exceeded one million yuan!""

"so much?"

Li Si and others couldn't help being surprised.

You know, Da Qin's commercial tax is 1 out of 10, and the commercial tax is one million yuan a month, which means that the transaction volume is more than 10 million yuan, and the annual trade volume has been Breaking through 10 million yuan!

Even in Daqin, where sea trade is booming, it is second only to a few flagship products such as glass, sugar, and silk.

"Mainly due to the development of commerce and the increase in income, now let alone the families of the powerful, the ordinary people of Qin have a higher demand for food. Nei

Shiteng introduced with a smile:"The fastest growing industry in Daqin last quarter was actually the catering industry. In order to compete for customers, these restaurants have hired famous chefs to study new dishes. The demand for spices has naturally increased with the tide." Got it"

"This is what our prosperous Qin Dynasty should look like!"

Ying Zheng said with a hint of pride on his face.

In the past, when the Qin State Treasury was in embarrassment and could not make ends meet, even Ying Zheng, the first emperor, had to take the lead in frugality. Even if the dignitaries in the court had money, they would not dare to spend it randomly for fear of being caught. The impeachment was extravagant.

But now, the Qin Dynasty's national power is booming. No one needs to deliberately restrain themselves. They can fully pursue better enjoyment. The living standard has not only improved several times compared with before.

And not only will it not meet the Controversial, according to what Fusu said, it is better to take the lead in positive guidance of consumption, so that the whole Qin Dynasty can upgrade from having enough food and clothing to a new era of good food and clothing.

As the first emperor of Qin, Ying Zheng naturally has a great sense of accomplishment for this.

And in terms of personal enjoyment, it is also much more comfortable.

No matter who you are, there is a yearning for better enjoyment, and Ying Zheng is no exception.

At this moment, in the yard, the roasted whole pig has become golden, and the aroma is even better Meat lovers such as Wang Jian were almost unable to sit still.

On the other side, in several large iron pots set up, pork belly and other pork dishes were constantly being stir-fried, making Wang Jian and others unable to take their eyes away. I didn't know where to look.

Fusu simply asked people to set up a few large tables in the yard, cooked a dish and delivered it directly, and also prepared several jars of fine wine.

After the food became rich, the level of Daqin's fine wine also increased. It has improved a lot since then, and is much stronger than the palace wine that Fusu drank before.

"How about it, old lieutenant, does this pork taste good?"

Fusu looked at Wang Jian who was devouring his food and had no image at all, and said with a smile.

"Very good, after the chef's processing, the pork, which the old minister originally disliked the most, turned out to be particularly delicious, much more delicious than beef and mutton. Wang

Jian was full of praise and said:"This roasted whole pig has crispy skin, excellent meat quality, and a hint of sweetness in the aroma. It is simply a legendary fairyland delicacy."

Especially for drinking, it’s the best"

"This pork is indeed more perfect than I imagined, especially the stew cooked in a clay pot. It is soft and delicious, fat but not greasy, with the right balance of sweet and salty, making it appetizing."

Ying Zheng also praised repeatedly.

"Therefore, many things are not unpalatable, but they are opened incorrectly."

"And the way of science is the way to study this correct way. Fusu said with a slight smile.

"Your Highness, can this table of food and wine have anything to do with science?"

Dun Ruo snatched a bite of braised pork from under Li Si's chopsticks and tasted it happily for a long time before asking.

"Of course, first of all, the breeding and cultivation of these ingredients is a discipline"

"The correct approach can make grain yields higher, poultry grow stronger, and taste more delicious. How can it not be science?"

"Even the knowledge of matching wine and food on this table also has a science called food science.

A reasonable diet can allow people to enjoy delicious food better while also making their bodies healthier."

Fusu said with a smile.

"This way of science really has a long and long way to go, and I will search for it from top to bottom.

Ying Zheng nodded and said,"Without the science advocated by Fusu, there would be no Daqin that is as prosperous as it is today.""

"For the contribution this science has brought to the Qin Dynasty, my father gives you a toast!"

Ying Zheng raised the wine bottle with a smile and said

"My father is too proud!"

Fusu gently clinked a drink with Ying Zheng, and the atmosphere on the wine table suddenly became more lively.

"This pork really becomes more delicious the more you taste it. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat other meat in the future!"

Wang Jian relied on the speed of the general to grab the last piece of roasted whole pig on his plate and said with a proud expression on his face.

"It's not impossible for the old lieutenant to eat a few more bites of pork."

Fusu said with a smile on his face.

At present, pork is not well known by the people of Daqin. If you want people to accept it, you must increase publicity.

And with Wang Jian's popularity in Daqin, if he can become the spokesperson for pork, It definitely has a very good effect in promoting pork.

Just imagine, how could the common people not be interested in a delicacy that even Taiwei Wang Jian couldn't forget?

The motivation to raise pigs was suddenly there.

As for how future generations will evaluate Wang Jian, support Su doesn't care.

Who makes this old man try his best to promote his granddaughter to himself every day, leading other ministers to bad behavior?

"As long as the veteran can eat this meat every day, just mention the typical ones."

Wang Jian promised happily before he realized that he had fallen into the trap. Now that he has become famous, even his grandson Wang Li, who was most worried about him, followed Fusu to get involved. Ying Zheng also gave Wang Jian a definite answer in private regarding his granddaughter. , so Wang Jian is really satisfied at this moment

"The Academy of Agricultural Sciences will send the pork and cooking methods to the old Taiwei’s house."

"As for the specific matter, the old lieutenant will know it by reading the newspaper."

Fusu suppressed his smile and said. Ying

Zheng, who had been paying attention to Fusu next to him, could hardly hold it in anymore.

This son really has his own style.

This guy Wang Jian really matches well with the pig. Ha ha!
