After reading the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, I only eat hundreds of millions

"Sweet and crispy."

"Fresh!!"

"Fourth Lady, besides Qiuli, what other fruits can be canned?"

I’ve eaten jujube cake and tasted braised duck. While drinking spicy soup, everyone carefully tasted the canned pears. In front of Chen Qing and others, there was a porcelain bowl filled with half a bowl of canned pears, two pieces of pear flesh, and clear juice.

Everyone really enjoyed tea and canned pears.

That kind of pious look reminded Song Hao of the word "pilgrimage".

this moment.

Her mood was different.

Hot, warm.

All the internal organs feel extremely ironed.

"This...most fruits can be canned, such as oranges, peaches, lychees, bayberries, apples, etc. The difficult thing is how to seal and store them without air leakage and spoilage." Song Hao thought. After thinking about it, he explained.

貌似…

Almost all the fruits she knows can be canned and stored.

Just be.

Canned food costs sugar, and sugar in Dazhou is expensive.

If ordinary people want to take a bite of canned food, most of them will be reluctant to part with it.

This said.

Suddenly, everyone around the dinner table looked happy.

Canned pears are delicious, but... there are always some people who don't like pears.

"Good!" Chen Qing said happily: "Chen likes to eat peaches, Yu Niang... can make some canned peaches."

"...There are no peaches in the capital at this time of year." Yu Niang rolled her eyes and glared at Chen Qing angrily. Seeing jujube, he likes to eat jujube cake. Seeing pears, canned pears are his favorite. At this moment, he was still eating canned pears in his mouth. He said that he loved peaches the most...

Ha ha.

Hearing this, Chen Qing was slightly embarrassed.

He laughed twice and didn't dare to say anything again.

Shi Xia chewed on the duck head and said, "Chen Qing, canning consumes a lot of sugar. There are a lot of fruits in the courtyard and the sugar in the capital, can't they all be used to make cans? Besides, even the cheapest sugar , the prices are not cheap.”

In an instant.

The expressions of everyone in the dining room became serious.

What Tokio said makes sense.

Sugar is expensive.

This means that canned fruit is expensive.

If canned fruit can only be enjoyed by dignitaries, the court cannot promote it even for the sake of face. Because... this will be defined by the censors as a waste of people and money, which means that canned fruits can be made, but not more can be made.

This is inconsistent with the concept of canned food proposed by Song Zhi.

"Qiuli in the courtyard, we will not make canned pears for the time being, and choose a few other fruits to try. Next, we will try to make canned fish, canned meat, and canned vegetables. Sugar...is expensive. We will wait until Eunuch Li returns to the palace to see what His Majesty thinks. "Chen Qing pondered for a moment and then ordered.

canned fish

Canned meat

canned vegetables

These don’t use sugar and salt.

As for salt, there is no shortage of salt in Dazhou.

The people of Dazhou are not short of salt, and the price of salt in Dazhou is more stable than the price of grain.

Nothing else, just because Dazhoujing Salt and Haiyan are developing very well in all aspects. At the same time, there is no shortage of purified salt.

This is due to the previous dynasty's emphasis on salt.

then.

There has been considerable and gratifying progress in many aspects such as salt-related mining and purification. This dynasty took over the mining and management of salt mines from the previous dynasty and developed it further. Salt mining has been stable for more than a hundred years, so that people all over the world no longer lack salt.

"Canned fish and canned meat consume a lot of oil." Song Hiei said: "There are many processing methods for canned fish, including braised in tomato sauce, fresh fried, steamed, smoked, soaked in oil and soaked in water. Canned meat can be divided into steamed and steamed. Types, seasonings, pickled types, sausages, offal types, smoked types, etc. There are many similarities between the two. However, the best fish for canned fish is fish from the deep sea. Within a year It’s best to eat it as much as possible, and don’t eat too much.”

……

Quiet

be quiet

extremely quiet

At the same time, everyone turned their attention to the buckets containing several grass carp/carp/crucian carp... in the courtyard.

It is clear.    These fish are all river fish.

It has nothing to do with the sea.

Then...

Can these fish still be canned?

Ahem...

Yuniang coughed twice and whispered: "Fourth lady! I...let me ask you a question, can grass carp and crucian carp be canned? Look...the fish we bought yesterday were all from the river. The capital is far from the sea. It's a bit far away, but there are fresh sea fish, but the price is much more expensive than the fish in the river, and ordinary people don't like to eat it..."

Counties near the sea can often eat a variety of seafood.

but…

No matter how delicious something is, you will become disgusted if you eat it often.

Not to mention the people who live near the sea, who eat fish and all kinds of seafood three times a day, the taste is definitely unpleasant.

Therefore.

Not many people like to eat fish in Dazhou.

"Don't worry, Lady Yu, river fish can also be canned. However, the taste is not as delicious as sea fish. I thought... the most appropriate time for this canned fish is to hand it over to those counties near the sea to open workshops, and have them process and make it before shipping it. Come to inland states and counties. Canned fish can be stored for up to a year if properly preserved.”

The lives of the people in Linhai counties are far poorer than those in wealthy inland counties.

The establishment of fish canning workshops will definitely improve the lives of people in these Linhai counties. At the same time, it can enrich the dining tables of people in inland counties and counties.

certainly…

More importantly, canned fish can be used as food.

The territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty was vast.

The establishment of a cannery factory.

It can provide countless jobs for the people. With money, the people can support their families.

Raising a family means…

You can have children, which can be said to be a multi-purpose achievement.

Haha.

Suddenly, there was a sound of breathing in the dining room.

In the room, everyone except Xi'er was engrossed in eating. The expressions of others were filled with excitement, but Song Hao's words were easy to understand. However, they all understand the hidden meaning behind it.

Benefit the country and the people! !

The establishment of the cannery is definitely a success for the future and a benefit for the present.

The imperial court has always had laws prohibiting royal relatives, nobles and officials from doing business and not competing for profits with the people. However, the establishment of the cannery was completely different.

Eunuch Li put down the bowl and chopsticks and said, "My lord, Le'an County, it's time for me to return to the palace. Canned food is the same as the fire kang. The success is in the present and the benefit will be in the future. Your Majesty will definitely be happy to see the establishment of the canning workshop."

Say it.

Let the little eunuch carry the box containing the canned pears back to the palace.

Chen Qing, Song Hierng and others stood up to see each other off.

With Li Qi's words, he was clearly urging Song Tiao and the others to build a canning workshop.

Suppose——

Canned fruits waste sugar and waste money.

Then, canned fish can really improve the lives of people in Linhai counties. Similarly, canned meat and canned vegetables can also promote the economy of a place.

Some words...

Even if you don't put it too bluntly, anyone who understands can understand it.

"Stop! You are busy...I am waiting for the good news from you all in the palace!" Li Qi raised his hand, and instead of letting Chen Qing, Song Tiao and others see them off, he urged them to return to the small courtyard of Houya.

Even though Li Qi didn't study, he stayed with Emperor Jianyuan for decades.

In terms of talent and learning, he may not be as good as a scholar.

However, in terms of political acumen, Li Qi definitely surpassed most officials in the court.

The Lord of Le'an County! !

This title is definitely the most cost-effective deal I have made today.

The daughter of the Song family——Song Hierarchy.

A capable person who can make Da Zhou change the existing situation.

Not to mention the position of the head of Le'an County, in the future...even if it is the canonization of a princess, she can afford it! ! !
