Chapter 45 Delicious appetizers

Li Zheng, who was dreaming, was woken up by Li Yi Mansion and opened his eyes to look around, "What's the matter?"

Li Yifu whispered: "General Li Jing is back and is waiting outside."

Li Zheng got out of bed and cleaned up and asked himself, "When did he come?"

"For a while, even His Majesty came to our village before he even went to see him." Li Yifu said.

After washing my face, I woke up quickly, and when I walked out of the house, I saw this middle-aged man.

He stood upright and looked at himself, looking forty years old, with a very sharp gaze.

"You are younger than I thought." Li Jing said.

"I'm here with Li Zheng, I've met General Li Jing." Li Zheng saluted a little.

Li Jing walked up to Li Zheng and whispered: "Your order to give in Chang'an allows us to take down Yinshan without bloodshed."

"General Li Jing has been awarded too much." Li Zheng said with a smile.

Li Jing continued: "In fact, before your plan, tens of thousands of soldiers were ready for a strong attack, but strong attack is the worst strategy and will sacrifice many soldiers. Your plan allows us to wait for our hard work, so that our soldiers do not have to risk their lives. I thanked tens of thousands of soldiers."

After saying that, Li Jing bent down and bowed.

Li Zheng also hurriedly saluted, "General, don't do this."

Li Jing glanced at Su Dingfang behind him and said, "He is Su Dingfang. If you encounter any difficulties, tell Su Dingfang and let him tell me."

"You're welcome to the general."

Li Jing left after saying that.

Do you mean to cover yourself by listening?

What kind of experience is it to protect himself by the Tang Dynasty war god Li Jing.

After saying goodbye to Li Jing, Li Zheng turned his head to look at Su Dingfang. Looking at his age of fifteen or sixteen, there was an ordinary person's lack of energy in his eyes.

The people brought out by General Li Jing are indeed different.

Su Dingfang glanced at Li Zheng more and remembered his appearance in his heart.

When Li Jing returned to Chang'an, he did not go to see Li Er. After returning home, he closed the door and closed the door and refused to see guests.

Li Jing did this and Li Shimin said nothing.

What other generals should be rewarded is still rewarded, and what should be celebrated in Chang'an City should be celebrated.

A half of the three thousand houses in Jingyang County have been completed.

A spirits workshop was completed in Jingyang.

Cheng Chumo looked at the liquor workshop and sighed: "From now on, we will never drink the three-shrimp like horse pee."

Li Zheng and Cheng Chumo signed and wrote, and produced their own skills and manpower, and Cheng Chumo quietly produced the raw materials for aging.

The wine of the Tang Dynasty is rare, and it is rare for ordinary families to eat wine.

To brew spirits, you need a lot of aging to distille and blend, and the cost during the period is also very high.

If it is to brew in large quantities, it would not work without Cheng Yaojin's family's path.

The two agreed to share the profit by 30% and 70% of the profit, Li Zheng took 7% and Cheng's family took 30%.

Sitting at the stone table in the newly built winery, Li Zheng brought a pot of cooked peanuts and a pot of pig ears in front of Cheng Chumo.

"What is this?" Cheng Chumo picked up peanuts curiously.

"Peanuts." Li Zheng said.

Cheng Chumo imitated Li Zheng and ate the peanuts, "Yeah! It's delicious."

After taking another bite of pig's ears, Cheng Chumo took another sip of wine, "Comfortable!"

The pig ears are decorated with spicy dogwood to enhance the taste.

The two were eating, and Li Tai came hurriedly, "So you are here."

As soon as Li Tai sat down, he smelled the fragrance of the wine, "Is this..."

"Of course it's a strong wine." Cheng Chumo poured a bowl of wine for Li Tai and said, "I'm not hiding it from His Highness the King of Wei, there is only one of the strong wine in my Cheng family now."

Looking at the clear wine, Li Tai whispered: "I have only drunk it once, and it is a small bottle given by my father. I didn't expect you to drink such strong wine every day."

"Not either." Li Zheng said.

Li Tai's eyes were grim: "You have all drunk such good drinks in love, but I live a hard life by myself, and you two are not very interesting."

Looking at the two dishes on the table, Li Tai asked, "What kind of dish is this?"

"Pig ears and peanuts." Li Zheng said.

"I haven't heard of it." Li Tai picked up a piece of pig's ear and ate it. The cartilage was very crisp and elastic.

"Is this pork?"

"Of course the pig's ears are pork."

Cheng Chumo looked at Li Tai and said proudly: "How is it? It's delicious, I haven't eaten it before."

This is the first time Li Tai has eaten pork since he was a child. He ate pig ears and drank strong wine, and his eyes turned red.

Li Zheng asked, "Your Highness, why are your eyes red?"

He took another bite of peanut and took a sip of wine. Li Tai sniffed and said embarrassedly: "Li Zheng, you don't know. Don't think I'm a prince. Everyone says I'm the King of Wei. How noble I am. Now I want to come to me and my life is not as good as you."

Li Zheng continued drinking to Li Tai and said, "Your Highness the King of Wei is joking. If I have the identity of you, I will go to the streets every day to tease good women."

Li Tai slapped the table and said, "Confidant, I've wanted to do this for a long time."

The aunts in the village all brought a bowl of stewed pork and dipped it in dogwood.

Li Tai ate a bite of pork that was fat and thin, and she kept tears in her eyes. He said sadly: "Li Zheng, there is no money in the palace, and my life is hard, your pork is so delicious."

Li Zheng sighed that Li Tai seemed to have suffered abuse in Chang'an.

While drinking, Li Tai said again: "Everyone says pork is a cheap meat, but now I know that this pork is fragrant."

Li Zheng comforted: "Your Highness, if you drink, don't be so excited."

"Can I not be excited? What kind of days have I been since last year? I haven't been waiting for a meal of meat for a month."

Li Tai became more and more excited as he spoke, "The father advocated frugality and not extravagance, but I was suffering. I am still growing."

Recently, the Tang Dynasty had to deal with the war with the Turks, and the treasury granary was so empty again, just pointing out that this year there will be a bumper harvest year.

If you want to overcome difficulties, Li Shimin sets an example and needs to be thrifty. From princes to princes and nobles in various countries, they cannot waste extravagance.

Seeing Li Tai crying while drinking, Li Zheng asked Cheng Chumo in a low voice, "Has he used to drink like this?"

"I haven't drunk much with His Highness the King of Wei." Cheng Chumo said in a low voice.

Li Zheng looked at Li Tai again while drinking and said in a heartbroken manner: "It seems that the wine is not very good."

"I can see it." Cheng Chumo nodded.

Li Tai ate another bite of pork with tears in his eyes, "This meat is so delicious."

He gave Li Tai a large pot of meat to eat, and Cheng Chumo kept eating peanuts in his mouth, as if he couldn't stop.
