Chapter 371 A touch of green on the dining table

When Shi Lei was walking on the way to work, he looked up and found that the entire Chang'an sky was a little gray. Without thinking too much, Shi Lei understood why. He, who came from later generations, was so familiar with such a sky. Generally, later generations called this thing haze.

The reason why it is gray is that it is because it is cold and more fires are used to keep warm. Especially in the world of Tang Dynasty, it is quite popular to burn charcoal, that is, coal blocks. There are no anthracite production areas around it. The open-pit coal mines that are easier to find and excavate. Most of them are of poor quality, and black smoke is rolling when burned.

In addition, nearly one million people gather in the circle of Chang'an City, and everyone was whizzing black smoke. It would be strange if the day did not change.

This is actually much better than burning wood. Most of the wood nowadays is made into charcoal, which exists as a high-end product that only nobles can afford in their families.

That thing looks much less smoke, and it makes a hot pot, barbecue, etc., and charcoal is more delicious.

There is a reason why this thing is expensive. Burning charcoal is time-consuming, labor-intensive and labor-intensive. In addition, if you want to pick up firewood now, especially when you come back to burn it, it is definitely not as convenient as before. You have to go a long way to find enough wood in the deep mountains. The cost increase is very serious.

There is no way. There are too many people who squeezed in from Chang'an, and they were originally chopping wood and burning it. The demand is too high, and the growth of trees cannot keep up. It is said that the entire northern part of Chang'an is almost cleaned by baldness, and many hills cannot see green, which has caused the current situation.

It is not realistic for people of this era to tell them what soil erosion and how to protect the environment.

Besides, even in later generations, the concept of environmental protection has been deeply rooted in people's hearts. There are different people who are in vain the welfare of their descendants in order to make some money and do nothing about having children. Not to mention the Tang Dynasty, which does not even have this concept.

Fortunately, it was in the south of Chang'an City and was also harmed. Carboniferous has been used on a large scale and has reached a relatively popular level.

This is also a very different point from the real Tang Dynasty in history. It is said that it was the result of the joint efforts of many aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty.

Nowadays, most of these open-pit coal mines are in the hands of such as the Dou family and the five surnames and seven nobles. In addition, only people like Changsun Wuji who are very good at hand can get a piece of the pie.

But there are also side effects. As soon as Chang'an enters winter, it is rare to see the clear blue sky at the cost. It is also an important reason why Shi Lei has always been reluctant to live in Chang'an City. He has long been fed up with the pain of haze, but he doesn't want to feel the darkness of the people of the Three Jins in the later generations.

So even if you are qualified and buy a house in a few top-notch markets, you will not have enough money. Shi Lei has never taken action. Instead, he would rather travel between his own village and the imperial city.

For Shi Lei, such a territory can only be bought and speculated on real estate, but such real estate exists as a symbol of the identity of each company. Unless it is transferred from other places or even exiled, it has to move out of Chang'an City, and it may never come back. Most people will not take advantage of such a house, which is not embarrassing enough money.

Then Shi Lei's idea of ​​waiting for appreciation and reselling will definitely not be realized. Why are you doing this for such a thing? It's not that it's useless to waste money.

Moreover, most of Cheng Yaojin and others, the older generation of nobles, have entered the stage of honor and maintenance. Those who don’t have to worry about specific things have temporarily moved out of Chang'an City and ran to Chang'an County, Wannian County or Lantian County. In this way, the prefectures and counties around Chang'an have gone to their own villages to live.

The air quality over there is really poor. Although they don’t understand the truth behind this, it doesn’t prevent their bodies from feeling it.

Each of them has some hidden injuries or chronic diseases, which can easily cause coughs, asthma, colds and other diseases, which will make them very unhappy.

When they come to the southern village where the environment is much better, the situation will be much better, and they will definitely not suffer all the time in Chang'an City.

Moreover, in the winter, Chang'an City is not only dry and cold, but also a little boring. It's better to come to the village, so that everyone can easily play, drink, and play mahjong.

Since I got mahjong, I have been cooking a big kang on my own farm, and I finally have something to do. I put up the kang table and started to walk on the mahjong. I can have another hot pot when I’m tired of playing. Shi Lei’s filial pie is enough, and there is some chili noodles. This little life is simply too comfortable.

And they also found that Shi Tou's head grew, and this new idea was one after another.

When other people's dining tables were not visible at all, they could see several green leaves, bean sprouts, and garlic sprouts, which had not stopped flowing. They were filial to their uncles from time to time. I really don't know how he made it.

When they first saw the vegetables sent by Shi Lei, they almost thought Shi Lei had emptied the royal kitchen, which caused them quite a surprise.

However, I heard that the planting experiment of this year's vegetable greenhouse was successful and I will take everyone to play next year. All the uncles and uncles were relieved. It was another good investment.

Even if they are at their own share, they don’t really care about the benefits. After all, do they sell vegetables? No matter how expensive they sell in winter, how much money can they make, but leaving such things to their own merchants has a very different meaning.

After seeing the yield of potatoes, they realized that sooner or later this thing can make people vomit, and it is definitely better to have vegetables.

Let your own farmers get the skills to grow vegetables this winter early, and they will definitely make a lot of money next year. It would be great if everyone celebrates a happy New Year together.

It can not only satisfy your verbal desires, but also gain a good reputation for yourself, and win multiple goals in one fell swoop.

But if you want to eat these rare good things at the moment, you have to flatter the boy with a little stone, which is a bit depressing.

Let me ask my family to visit him more. I heard that the daughter of the Cheng family is still in charge of the family affairs, so Shi Tou doesn’t interfere.

As a result, Shi Lei's family became the main battlefield for the hostesses of various families, and they often had to set up a dragon gate formation at Shi Lei's house. Of course, there were some hints inside and outside, which made Shi Lei even dare not join the fierce old women. Most of them didn't look like elders at all, and they said it was so dirty and frightened Shi Lei away.

He was thinking that he had to think of a new idea and attract their attention to other aspects. He always stayed at home like this, not only did the consumption of food and drink, but also the vegetables in his home were not enough. He would give him some of the key points from the sky.

How could Shi Lei, a foodie, suffer? He finally made such vegetables to enrich his winter table. How could he be ruined by these old ladies?
