He said it was poisonous, but he ate more than anyone else.

"My lord, I didn't expect this pork to be so delicious!"

"Yes, this is the first time in my life that I have eaten pork."

"I want to eat this kind of pork every day, even if it's poisonous."

"We have eaten so much, and we don't seem to feel any discomfort. It doesn't seem to be poisonous."

A group of people devoured all kinds of delicacies on the table, and their mouths were full of oil.

Even this girl Qing'er actually eats more than Li Kuan. It's really...

"Pork is of high quality and low price, and it deserves to be vigorously promoted. The most important thing is that it eats a lot of food. It eats leftovers, vegetables and weeds. Even if it is old grain that has gone bad, it will be fine. It's good.

Very well raised!”

After much thought, Li Kuan concluded that the key to increasing the meat intake of the Tang people was to look to his second senior brother.

This has also been proven by later generations. It is better to promote sheep farming in the past, and cattle breeding must be reliable.

Of course, chickens, ducks and geese can also be raised at the same time. The Chuwangfu Courtyard has a piece of land on a tributary of the Wei River, which is suitable for breeding.

Li Kuan immediately started arranging tasks.

"Uncle Laifu, you immediately arrange for people to build a larger pig house, build a few chicken sheds, and then have people buy all kinds of piglets, sows, and boars. There is no limit to the number. The more the better; at the same time, the more

Bring back some chickens, ducks and goose eggs, and buy live chickens, ducks and geese as well..."

The sky is vast and the earth is vast, and Li Kuan, the prince of Chu, is the largest.

Once he makes up his mind to do something, no one can object.

The outrageous thing like selling the royal family's belongings had been successfully accomplished, not to mention that now it was just a matter of buying more livestock.

"Your Majesty, whether it's raising pigs or chickens, ducks and geese, the palace can't raise many. Can it solve everyone's meat-eating problem?" Xue Li obviously had little confidence in Li Kuan's breeding plan.

"Rengui, you are too petty. Is this the reason why this king mobilizes all the troops just to solve the meat-eating problem of you guys?"

Li Kuan looked at Xue Li with contempt.

"Forget it, just train those guards for me. You don't need to worry about the rest. During this period, first buy some mutton and pork from the market. The amount of training will increase. The meat must be guaranteed.

, otherwise people will become useless through training.”

…

There is no airtight wall in the world, and Li Kuan did not deliberately hide it at all, so soon everyone in Chang'an City knew that King Chu had done something new again!

"Bang!" In the imperial study room, Li Shimin angrily threw his beloved Duan Inkstone to the ground.

"This Li Kuan! He's only been back in Beijing for a few days, and he's already causing a storm in the city! Can't he save his time? A noble prince actually starts raising pigs. He's not afraid of embarrassment, but I'm still afraid of embarrassment!"

"I, Li Tang, have always been looked down upon by many aristocratic families. They say that I am a descendant of the Xianbei people. Now this guy actually takes the lead in eating pork. Isn't this a target for those aristocratic families? He also said that he wants to deal with the aristocratic families. Is this how he deals with them?

From a noble family?"

There was only one servant in the Imperial Study Room, Li Zhong, so Li Shimin vented all his unhappiness.

"Li Zhong, let me ask you, apart from raising pigs, has Kuan'er done anything else recently?"

Li Zhong looked at the furious Li Shimin and felt like crying. How many times had he been criticized for His Highness the King of Chu?

"Your Majesty, the Chu Palace has made two big moves recently. One is to purchase various pigs, chickens, ducks, geese and their eggs, and the other is..."

"That's what..."

"The Prince of Chu's Mansion sent people to buy up all kinds of wood in the West Market, and they also specially selected unripe, cheap wood; at the same time, the Prince of Chu's Mansion also purchased various barks and bamboos from the people outside the city. It is said that

The Prince of Chu's Mansion also dedicated a large area of ​​land by the Weishui River to place these materials, and many craftsmen were coming in and out one after another, as if they were making something. In addition, there was another thing that was a bit strange. During this period, the Prince of Chu's Mansion

I bought all the lead bars sold in the east and west cities of Chang'an City."

Li Zhong told all the news he knew in one breath, and Li Shimin became furious again.

"Buy all kinds of wood, bamboo and bark?" Li Shimin showed a confused expression. Although he was resourceful, he did not know everything. What exactly Li Kuan bought these things for, he really couldn't think of at the moment.

.

Li Zhong: "The use of wood is logically used to build houses and make furniture, but the Chu Palace purchased all low-quality wood, which makes people feel strange; as for bamboo, I don't even know what it is used for.

, on the contrary, it is bark, and many private paper-making workshops use it as a raw material for paper-making."

"Can paper be made from tree bark?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Hmph, it seems that Kuan'er is still able to carry things carefully."

Although I don’t understand how Li Kuan used wood and bamboo to make paper, tree bark can actually be used to make paper. The Chu Palace bought so much unused wood and bamboo, which was most likely used to make paper. Li Shimin did not need to analyze it technically.

This conclusion can be drawn.

"Your Majesty, in fact, according to Weichen, His Royal Highness the King of Chu has always been very methodical in doing things, and often achieves unexpected results. Just like when he went to Liangzhou last year, who could have thought that the prince would be able to conquer the Western Turks?

Have the elite been wiped out?"

"Forget it, this guy, don't think about him anymore, otherwise I will be pissed off by him sooner or later!"

…

Tianxiang Pavilion.

"Yun'er, has His Royal Highness the King of Chu really not been to any brothels recently?"

Ever since Zixia heard that Li Kuan had returned to Beijing, she had been looking forward to the opportunity to see him and see if she could ask for another good poem.

"Girl, you really haven't gone anywhere." Yun'er pouted, "You won't believe it even if I tell you. Now there are rumors outside that His Highness the King of Chu has been busy raising pigs, chickens, ducks and geese recently."

"Ah? Real or fake?"

"I don't know. But everyone is spreading the word. What's the point of being empty?"

"Found out of nothing!"

"Yes, it's just a rumor, but it won't be a rumor after all. Let me tell you, girl, you'd better not worry about the King of Chu. In the past few months, Young Master Changsun has been coming quite frequently, and he's been very generous..."

"That's enough! Yun'er, if you continue to behave like this, don't blame me for not missing our old friendship!"

Zixia's face darkened, and at the same time she felt deeply helpless in her heart.

As the top leader of Tianxiang Pavilion, Zixia has actually saved a lot of money in the past few years and is fully capable of redeeming herself.

But where do you go after redeeming yourself?

The world is so big, but there is no place for oneself!

Many honorable places in Chang'an City have been trying new methods to get close to Zixia recently.

It’s nothing more than coveting my own body!
