Chapter 39 Quan Kun Banquet

Author: March

Fried eggs with leeks?

Spicy chicken?

Braised tofu with baby cabbage?

After having a hot pot, Zhao Si is no longer limited to eating hot pot. Zhao Si can use his imagination as much as he wants.

Unfortunately, because many of the vegetables brought back have not grown yet, Zhao Si does not know many of the local edible vegetables in Daqin, and there are very few dishes to choose from.

Zhao Si rolled up his sleeves and asked Wang Li to get some old hens to prepare a banquet for Quan Kun.

Let’s start with scrambled eggs with leeks. This dish is the oldest stir-fry dish in the Central Plains. It can be traced back to the Han Dynasty. Even during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the combination of leeks and eggs has been praised.

"Book of Rites of the Zhou Dynasty" says: Leeks are made from eggs, wheat is made from fish, millet is made from dolphins, and rice is made from wild geese.

It’s just that before the Han Dynasty, the combination of leeks and eggs was mostly fried. It was only after the Han Dynasty that the first scrambled eggs with leeks appeared.

Put the oil in first, and the lumpy oil slowly melts in the high-temperature pot. Zhao Si pushes the oil to infiltrate the wall of the pot, and the oil and water slowly boil.

Crack in the eggs, lightly beat them, stir a few times to set the shape, take out the formed eggs, add the leeks, add some green salt, wait until the leeks are slightly cooked, then add the eggs.

In just a short while, the first fried eggs with chives in the Qin Dynasty was freshly baked.

Then came the spicy chicken.

Except for the peppers that he went to sow, Zhao Si left some of them to satisfy his appetite.

It was enough to eat originally, but with the addition of Wang Li, a gourmet, the rate at which the chili peppers were consumed doubled. In less than a month, only half of it was left.

After the spicy chicken was ready, Zhao Si made another pot of old chicken soup.

Served with mountain mushrooms and game, and the soup stock makes it fresh, it can be said to be extremely fresh.

Simple, two dishes and one soup, freshly baked.

Wang Li took a sip of Lao Kun soup and it was so delicious that he couldn't close his mouth.

Another bite of spicy chicken.

Great! It’s my favorite extra spicy!

The ordinary fried eggs with leeks also makes people feel more delicious.

On the other side, the First Emperor was still on his way back to Xianyang.

The current First Emperor also ate accompanied by Meng Yi.

Above the screen hangs a world map drawn by Zhao Si himself.

On the table were sweet potatoes with bald skin being plated by the First Emperor.

"Your Majesty, the sixteen large ships of Langya have been repaired, and the remaining four are still under construction. It is estimated that it will take five or six months until the construction is completed." Meng Yi said.

In fact, it takes a long time for a seagoing ship to start construction and enter the water. The average construction period is about three to five years. This is mainly because the wood used to build the hull requires various processes and also needs time to dry in the sun...

But this time the First Emperor only requested four more ships to make up the total of twenty, so many aspects could be omitted.

For example, wood that needs to be dried in the shade for a long time can be directly dismantled from other ships, or the wood that has been dried in the shade can be directly used...

It's not a big amount, so there's no need to start from scratch. Because Xu Fu went to sea many times, the local people in Langya already have experience in building sea-going ships. If the materials meet the standards, they only need to be assembled.

"Well..." The First Emperor responded, but did not reply, but settled down to eat.

Meng Yi knew in his heart that the First Emperor probably had thoughts about the sea because of Zhao Si's return and the news he brought back.

Over in Longxi, Meng Tian had expelled the Xiongnu from the Hetao area and was unable to enter.

It is not impossible to continue to advance with troops, but the remaining areas are barren and undefeable. The battle line is too long. Although Daqin now occupies the most fertile Hetao area, so far it is still the central government that passes

Qin Zhidao was transfusing blood to Longxi.

As for Baiyue, Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo have not made much progress.

Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo pursued the political strategy of harmonizing Baiyue, but the progress was quite slow. Although the First Emperor was not very happy, there was really no better way to deal with Baiyue.

At the beginning, he did attack Baiyue once. Tu Sui led 300,000 Qin troops to attack Baiyue, killed the leader of the Xiou tribe "Yi Xusong" and occupied the Guangdong area around Panyu.

However, they suffered repeated defeats in the subsequent advancing war, and finally the three-year campaign ended in failure. Even the general Tu Sui was killed in the war.

After that, Ren Xiao made his debut.

As for Zhao Tuo, he was the deputy general when Tu Suinan attacked Baiyue.

After the massacre of Sui, Ren Xiao took charge of the affairs of Baiyue, and Zhao Tuo was still the deputy general. He was the second oldest in ten thousand years.

Zhao Tuo's stage is not now, but after Qin II behaved recklessly and Ren Xiao died of illness.

But in general, after the change of leadership, Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo had the same political thinking. The Baiyue battlefield under the leadership of the two men was not as good as Meng Tian's attack on the Huns from the north and quickly captured the Hetao area, but it still continued every year.

Progress is steady, but the pace is too slow.

There is no way to enter the north and the south, so it is understandable that the First Emperor wants to open the sea.

"Your Majesty, Zou Feng wrote a letter some time ago and wanted to take a look at the sea map." Meng Yi spoke at the right time after thinking about it.

Zou Feng, a direct descendant of Zouzi Zouyan.

A figure that cannot be ignored in the contemporary Yin and Yang family, Qin Dingshui De, the rationality and explanation for the change of political power, is Zou Feng.

Qin overthrew Zhou and established itself. No matter how it is said, there must be an official explanation.

Zou Zi’s theory of the Five Virtues came into play.

Zou Zi proposed the explanation of "Yu Tu, Xia Mu, Yin Jin, Zhou Huo".

It is also said that the substitute for fire must be water.

Qin's destruction of the Zhou royal family was under great pressure from public opinion.

Zou Feng appears at the right time, Qin Shanghei is Shui De, and the one who replaces Zhou is Qin!

At the same time, Zou Feng used relevant books such as The Theory of the Five Virtues to End the Beginning and Zou Zi as the theoretical basis, which played a great supporting role in the public opinion and correctness of the Qin State's destruction of the Zhou Dynasty.

It also explains the rationality of the Qin Dynasty's unification of the world.

Those who can be called sons can basically have their ideas quoted to explain the rationality of the regime.

When Qin defeated Zhou, it was not without dissent and pressure from public opinion.

After all, no matter how mascot the Zhou royal family is, it has existed for eight hundred years!

That’s eight hundred years!

At that time, Zou Feng could be said to be fighting against all the famous people in the world by himself. The Yin Yang family under Zou Feng shared a huge amount of firepower for the Qin State.

In return, the core theories of the Yin-Yang family were officially endorsed by the Qin State, Dajiuzhou could be officially compared with the Kyushu Theory, and the First Emperor personally recognized the Five Virtues Theory.

The Yin Yang family, who were not very good at fighting, suddenly became able to fight because of Zou Feng's choice.

The First Emperor was not a person who would not reciprocate.

Now many years have passed, Zou Feng has long since retired and is living in seclusion in his hometown Qi, paying no attention to worldly affairs and teaching his disciples with peace of mind.

The First Emperor read Zou Feng's letter and sent someone to copy the world map and nautical charts brought by Zhao Si to Zou Feng.

Hearing Meng Yi mention it again, the First Emperor suddenly became clear.

Zou Feng!

Yin Yang family!

Great Kyushu!

Academic disputes are a matter of life and death. If there is a chance to kill Jiuzhou Shuo, the Yin Yang family will definitely spare no effort.

(Being a lazy dog ​​today, I only have one update. I stayed up late playing games yesterday, and I am a little out of shape. Moreover, it is also the turning point of the plot. I want to think about how the subsequent plot will unfold.)
Chapter completed!
