Chapter 311 Pig spokesperson: Wang Jian
Chapter 311 Pig spokesperson: Wang Jian
Soon, under the careful cooking of the Yuxuan Pavilion chef, the roasted whole pig exuded a rich aroma, which directly attracted the attention of Ying Zheng and the courtiers.
"This aroma seems to be better and more mouth-watering than roasted piglets."
Ying Zheng twitched his nose and said.
At this time, Yingzheng was quite a gourmet, constantly commenting.
"The reason why it is so fragrant is mainly because of the addition of various spices."
Ying Yu said with a smile: "Many of these spices were sent from Tianzhu County, and they are different from those used by Daqin. After mixing, not only the aroma is stronger, but the taste is also better."
Seeing Ying Zheng's appearance, Ying Yu explained helplessly.
"That's true. Today's Zhu County, the most popular specialty is this spice."
"A catty of spices worth only one or two dollars in Tianzhu County can be sold for more than ten times the price once it is shipped back to Daqin, and the supply is in short supply.
Nei Shiten laughed and said: "According to the statistics of the Neishi Office, the commercial tax obtained from the spice trade in Tianzhu last month alone has exceeded one million yuan!"
"so much?"
Feng Quji and the others couldn't help being surprised.
You know, Daqin's commercial tax is one out of ten, and a monthly commercial tax of 100 million means that the transaction volume is more than [-] million yuan.
In this way, with just this spice, the annual trade volume can reach [-] million yuan!
This income is second only to several top products such as glass, sugar, and silk.
"The main reason is that my Daqin is now developed in commerce and trade, and the income of the people is also increasing. Now the people of my Daqin have a higher demand for food."
Nei Shiten introduced with a smile: "The fastest growing industry last quarter was actually the catering industry. In order to compete for customers, many restaurants have hired famous chefs to study new dishes. The demand for spices has naturally increased with the tide. .”
"This is what the prosperous Qin Dynasty should look like!"
Ying Zheng sighed, and the pride on his face couldn't be concealed.
In the past, when the treasury of the Great Qin Dynasty was in distress and it was difficult to make ends meet, even the emperor Yingzheng had to take the lead in frugality.
Even if they have money, the rich and powerful in the court do not dare to spend it recklessly, for fear of being impeached for being extravagant.
But now that the national power of the Great Qin is booming, no one needs to deliberately restrain themselves, and can completely pursue better enjoyment, and the standard of living has increased several times compared to before.
And not only will there be no controversy, but according to what Ying Yu said, it is also a positive guide to take the lead in consumption, so that everyone in Daqin can upgrade from having enough food and clothing to a new era of eating well and clothing well.
As the Great Qin Emperor, Ying Zheng naturally had a great sense of accomplishment.
And in terms of personal enjoyment, it is also a lot more comfortable.
No matter who it is, there is a longing for better enjoyment, and Ying Zheng is no exception.
Under everyone's expectant eyes, the whole roasted pig in the yard had turned golden brown, and the aroma made Wang Jian and other meat lovers almost uncontrollably salivating.
On the other side, among the several large iron pots set up, the pork belly that is constantly being stir-fried, and various pork dishes, people can't take their eyes off.
For a moment, everyone didn't know where to look.
Seeing that the dishes were almost ready, Ying Yu asked people to set up a few big tables in the yard, and after cooking a dish, they brought it over directly, and prepared a few jugs of good wine.
After the food was rich, Ying Yu also published the recipe of wine making in "Daqin Daily", which made Daqin's drinking culture greatly improved.
"How about it, old general, does this pork taste good?"
Ying Yu asked with a smile as he looked at Wang Jian, who was gobbling up and had no image at all.
"Very good, after the chef's processing, the pork, which this veteran didn't like the most, can actually become so delicious. It's much more delicious than beef and mutton."
Wang Jian boldly removed a pig's head and took a bite, "The skin of this roasted whole pig is crispy, the meat is excellent, and there is a hint of sweetness in the aroma. This is simply the most delicious food in the world.
Pairing it with His Royal Highness's good wine, the old minister is worth it in this life. "
"This pork is indeed more delicious than I imagined, especially this stew cooked in a clay pot. It is soft and delicious, fat but not greasy. It is sweet and salty, and it will whet your appetite."
Ying Zheng also praised repeatedly.
"So, many things are actually not delicious, but the way to open them is not correct."
"And the way of science is the way to study the correct way to open it."
Ying Yu smiled slightly.
"Your Highness, can this table of food and drink be related to science?"
Dun Ruo snatched a mouthful of braised pork from Feng Quji's chopsticks, savored it happily for a long time, and then asked in doubt.
"That's nature. First of all, the breeding and planting of this ingredient is a discipline in itself."
"The correct opening method can make the grain yield higher, the poultry grow stronger, and the taste is more delicious. This is another embodiment of science!"
"Secondly, the matching of food and wine at this table also involves the existence of something called food science.
A reasonable diet can make people stronger and healthier while enjoying the delicious food better. "
Ying Yu smiled and popularized the Tao for everyone.
"This way of science is really everywhere."
Ying Zheng couldn't help but sighed, and then continued: "Without the science advocated by the prince, there would be no Daqin as prosperous as it is today. This science is a good thing."
"For the sake of science, I offer you a toast!"
Ying Zheng raised his wine bottle with a smile.
"Father is overrated."
Ying Yu gently clinked a glass with Ying Zheng, and the atmosphere on the wine table suddenly became more lively.
"This pork really tastes better the more you taste it. How can this old minister eat other meat in the future?"
Wang Jian, relying on his superior reaction speed, snatched the last piece of roasted whole pig in his hands.
Looking at the last piece of meat, I couldn't bear to eat it anymore.
"Isn't it pork? It's not easy for the old general to want to eat it."
Ying Yu looked at Wang Jian with a smile.
At present, pork is not well known by the people of Daqin, and if they want to be accepted by the people, they need to publicize it.
With Wang Jian's popularity in Daqin, if he can become the spokesperson of the pork image, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort in promoting pork.
Just imagine, even Taiwei Wang Jian can't forget the delicacy of pork, so will the common people not be interested?
Coupled with various preferential policies, wouldn't the motivation for raising pigs be there?
As for how people will evaluate Wang Jian in the future, Ying Yu said that it has nothing to do with him.
"As long as the veteran can eat this pork every day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can ask for anything."
Wang Jian hadn't found out that he had been tricked, so he promised happily.
Today, he has achieved success and fame, and even his most worried grandson, Wang Li, followed Ying Yu to make his mark.
Regarding the matter of the granddaughter, Ying Yu also gave a guarantee just now, and Wang Jian now has nothing to worry about.
