The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 261 Preparations before the voyage

Back in Jiangxia, Gan Ning and others greeted him hurriedly, walked into the government office, everything was ready, and they had a delicious meal.Seeing the vegetables, Long Fei suddenly thought of an important matter, called Jiang Qin to his side, pointed at the vegetables and said, "You must pay attention to this thing, besides water, vegetables are the most important thing when sailing on the sea. If you don't eat vegetables, soon the people on board will get sick, and this disease can easily kill the crew."

Dian Wei laughed and said, "Boss is talking nonsense. If you don't eat vegetables, you will die. I don't believe it?"

Long Fei ignored him, looked at Jiang Qin and said solemnly: "If it's a long voyage, it's more important! Have you ever eaten bean sprouts?"

Jiang Qin shook his head quickly.Long Fei said: "Let the cooks on the ship come to me at night, I will teach them how to make bean sprouts, eating them can prevent illness!"

The people in the navy already regarded Long Fei as a god. The big ships were all designed by Long Fei. What he said was absolutely correct.Jiang Qin hurriedly sent someone to inform the cook, saying: "If there is anything else that needs attention, please enlighten me, my lord."

Long Fei thought for a while: "That's right, we must keep the big boat clean, organize everyone to clean the boat when there is nothing to do, so as to prevent diseases, bring enough medicinal materials, and find two doctors from Master Hua to treat everyone. Although a big ship is big, it is not land after all. If one person gets sick, it will soon infect others. You have to consult the doctor Hua about these things. You must not drink sea water. When it rains, store more rainwater. When you encounter a small island, you have to go up to store fresh water.  … ..."

While everyone was eating, Long Fei told Jiang Qin everything he knew about sailing.At the end, I suddenly remembered an important thing: "By the way, the most important point is to identify the direction. We can see things on the shore in the river and refer to the direction, but the sea is endless, and we don't know where we are at all, so we need an instruction. For direction, the compass is the most suitable!"

"Compass?" Even Xu Shu felt that this thing was unreliable, and reminded him: "My lord, the compass is used to look at Feng Shui, and put it on the boat to drive away evil spirits and avoid evil?"

Guo Jia nodded: "My lord, this idea is ingenious. The pointer of the compass always points to the north, so that you can know the north, south, east, and west. It's a good way!" Everyone suddenly realized that Long Fei was very knowledgeable.The admiration for him is like the uninterrupted torrential river, and the flood of the Yellow River is out of control.

That night, the cooks sent by Jiang Qin gathered at the gate of the subordinate yamen.Being a cook was the most humble occupation in ancient times. Few of them would have dreamed of having the opportunity to meet the lord.Seeing Long Fei, everyone hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.Long Fei helped them up and looked at them with a smile: "They are all good, with a strong body, such a body is needed for Yuanhang, let's talk inside."

Entering the room, the leader hurriedly said: "The general said that the lord is looking for us, and the young ones are stupid, so please enlighten me."

Long Fei smiled: "I don't have anything to teach you. You are all the chefs on our Qinglong ship. Hundreds of brothers depend on you to support them. The responsibility is heavy."

The word "teacher" is generally used on people of noble status, such as grand masters, masters, mages, and immortal masters.Those who are educated are only called Mr., and they are flattered to get the title of teacher. No one has ever called themselves this way. They are moved to tears, and they all have the heart to die for Long Fei.The leader said: "Don't worry, my lord, we will do our best to make our brothers on the Qinglong ship eat well!"

Speaking of bean sprouts, it was actually recorded before the Han Dynasty.The earliest bean sprouts were made from black soybeans. In "Shen Nong's Materia Medica", "Soybean Yellow Roll" is listed as a middle-grade product. The method is: "The method of making yellow rolls is to soak black soybeans in well water on the day of Rengui. It takes time to get through the roll, and you need to eat it.” Yellow rolls made of soybeans are more than ten times longer than those that are sprouted and grow to the tiller.From Gen to Zhen, Zhen to Sun, from Gui to Jia, Jia to Yi.The first one is called yellow, yellow and curly, and the woody nature of straight and straight is ready.The wood is stored by the liver, and the truth of the store passes through the liver.The liver stores the Qi of the fascia.The big tendons gather at the knees, and the knees belong to the valley.Therefore, the main arthralgia due to dampness tends to convulse, and knee pain cannot be flexed or extended.Flexion and extension are straight and straight, and pictograms are governed by the law.Bean sprouts were first used for diet therapy, and then for health preservation. It was not generally eaten until the Song Dynasty.

Bean sprouts, also known as sprouts, are edible "sprouts" cultivated from the seeds of various cereals, beans, and trees, also known as "green vegetables".Common sprouts include: Chinese toon sprouts, buckwheat sprouts, alfalfa sprouts, black bean sprouts and more than 30 varieties.During the germination process of soybeans, a large number of harmful substances are degraded and destroyed.The protein utilization rate of soybean sprouts is about 1% higher than that of soybeans.In addition, after soybeans germinate, in addition to being rich in vitamin C, carotene can be more than doubled, vitamin B[-] can be doubled, niacin can be doubled, and folic acid can be doubled.Eating bean sprouts can reduce the accumulation of lactic acid in the body and eliminate fatigue.Bean sprouts also contain a substance called nitrophosphatase, which can effectively fight epilepsy and reduce seizures.Bean sprouts contain an interferon-inducing agent, which can induce interferon and increase the ability of anti-virus and anti-cancer in the body.

Long-term lack of vitamin C in humans can not only cause scurvy, but also related to inflammation, arteriosclerosis, tumors and other diseases.In the age of great voyages in Europe, with the popularity of exploration, many sailors and explorers died of scurvy.Especially among long-distance sailors, it is particularly serious, so it is called "the sailor's fear" and "the fierce god of the sea".The purpose of Long Fei's doing this is to prevent this kind of thing from happening in advance, so as to prevent his navy from dying before it goes out.

Following Long Fei to the back kitchen, looking at the pot full of beans, the cooks were a little dumbfounded, thinking that Long Fei was asking them to compete with their cooking skills, they all secretly made up their minds to make a delicious meal.Long Fei didn't give orders and they didn't dare to act recklessly, watching Long Fei pour water into the basin full of beans, the more they watched, the more confused they became.Long Fei smiled and said: "Today I will teach you a dish called bean sprouts. After you learn it, you will have to eat a little every day when you get on the boat. This is a life-saving dish. Do you remember it?"

Everyone didn't expect that Long Fei could also cook, and as the lord, he would definitely cook rare delicacies in the world.Long Fei talked while doing it.In fact, Long Fei also learned the ability to grow bean sprouts from his mother. He had only seen it before, so he was not sure if he could grow bean sprouts.Long Fei coughed lightly: "Remember, the water temperature is very important. It should not be too hot. If it is too hot, the beans will be cooked. If it is too cold, the bean sprouts will not sprout. Put your hands in it and it will be just a little cool."

There are four keys to raw bean sprouts. First, remove bad beans when washing.Second, the drainage effect of the container of raw bean sprouts should be good. The beans should not be soaked in water, but sufficient humidity should be maintained.Third, don't let the beans see the sun, otherwise they will turn green immediately.Fourth, beans grow quickly after germination, so they should be harvested in time.

Several cooks stayed in the subordinate yamen for five days, learning how to grow bean sprouts from Long Fei every day.Fortunately, the beans did germinate in the end. Although the teeth did not grow, there were still many fibrous roots.Looking at a pot of bean sprouts, Long Fei wiped the sweat from his forehead, and heaved a sigh of relief: Fortunately, he didn't lose face.

There are many ways to eat bean sprouts, either stir-fried, eaten raw, or over water. Generally, it is very delicious as a cold dish.Long Fei taught the cooks how to cook a few more dishes, and invited Guo Jia and the others over to taste them together.After eating, they were full of praise and gave thumbs up one after another.

Dian Wei said: "Boss still has this ability, what is it called?"

Zhou Tai patted Dian Wei: "Bean sprouts! I can't even remember the name of the dish, I just know how to eat it." Everyone laughed.

The next day was the day when the Qinglong set sail. This time the voyage was not just a stroll around the Yangtze River. According to Long Fei's plan, it would go down the Yangtze River, bypass the continental shelf, and go south along the coastline. The Taiwan Strait goes straight to the destination Nanhai County, which is thousands of miles away.Most of the way along the way is the endless sea, and there may be some storms or the like, which is a huge test for the big men who have never been in contact with the sea.

All the personnel are already in place, and the things Long Fei reminded are all ready. There are several large warehouses of food, vegetables, and fruits, and of course dozens of bags of beans.Long Fei personally boarded the ship and checked everywhere, asking one by one until he was satisfied.Pulling Jiang Qin's arm: "If it doesn't work, return to the voyage immediately, even if it's near Jiangdong, don't worry."

Jiang Qin nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, my lord, Jiang Qin will definitely fulfill his mission!"

The people in Jiangxia City rushed to watch, and they all gathered around the pier and cheered.Long Feisheng shouted: "Brothers, you are our vanguard this time. If you fight well, the brothers behind will be braver. It doesn't matter if you don't fight well. As long as everyone is safe and sound, it is victory. There are many dangers in this journey." Don't say too much when you are frustrated, everyone, don't worry, I, Long Fei, promise to take good care of your family members, do you have confidence?"

"Yes!" More than 500 people in the whole ship shouted together under the leadership of Jiang Qin, with a loud and powerful voice.

Long Fei nodded, handed the cage containing several pigeons to Jiang Qin, and smiled slightly: "Let's go!"

There were no salutes and no bands, only the howling of the people and the determination of the five hundred warriors on board.Watching the Qinglong sail away from the pier, Long Fei kept waving.Xu Shu asked: "My lord, do you want to say hello to Sun Quan on this voyage, now it is considered an alliance?"

"Is there an alliance? Has their alliance letter been delivered?" Long Fei asked.

Xu Shu nodded: "Today is the fifth day, I just received it this morning."

Long Fei smiled and said: "You said this Sun Quan, why bother? If you do this, let them know that if you form an alliance with Jiangdong, you will clean up the nail in Changsha. If you pull him out, Jingzhou will all belong to us."

Xu Shu smiled slightly: "My lord, don't worry. They can't sit still now. Just got the news that Zhuge Liang sent Ma Liang to ask Zhang Liao for peace, hoping to exchange them with Changsha City to leave Jingzhou."

"Oh?" Long Fei turned his face away: "This is a good proposal. We can take Changsha without fighting. Very good. Let's go to Changsha immediately. I want to meet Zhuge Liang in person."
