Chapter 453 I want to eat beef!
The war in the South China Sea started very quickly, and the Song army directly wiped out most of the new forces of the Three Buddhas in one breath.
The news of victory was passed back to the Song Dynasty like it had wings, which made the merchants of the Song Dynasty very happy.
Lingyamen and Sanfoqi were controlled by the Song Dynasty, which meant that the Maritime Silk Road of the Song Dynasty was completely normal and was no longer affected by any external factors.
In order to thoroughly assimilate the countries in the South China Sea, the emperor enfeoffed all 21 princes to the South China Sea in one breath, and Yu Yunwen implemented his "Four Strategies of the South China Sea".
Yu Yunwen selected the exiled prisoners from Lingnan and followed the princes to Nanyang to be the first people to develop there.
Although the number is not large, it is enough to establish a country.
The natural environment there is superior, without war, the population will grow soon.
After the Three Buddhas were destroyed, the countries in the South China Sea were no longer afraid. Each of the princes had a thousand troops, so they were enough to push the local area and were dissatisfied with everything.
Although the war in the South China Sea ended soon, the war in the South China Continent began.
The Song Dynasty sent troops to Zhenla on the grounds that Zhenla refused Jiaozi, and the war officially broke out.
Military expenditure in the Southern Continent suddenly soared, and the consumption of food also increased sharply. Fortunately, the development of Jiangnan in the past two years was relatively smooth, and the increase in military food consumption in Jiaozhou did not increase the grain pressure in the Central Plains and Jiangnan.
Zhao Huan has not focused on the war in the Southern Continent recently. Zhang Jun is on the front line, Chen Gongfu is on the logistics line, and the military police of the Supervisory Office have taken root in Jiaozhou.
The Military Governor's Office controls the rhythm of war at any time, and the emperor does not need to worry about these things all day long.
At that time, Zhao Huan would run to the Central Army’s barracks to parade in the military and inspect the soldiers’ food.
After the inspection, Zhao Huan felt that the food nutrition of the soldiers of the Song Dynasty needed further strengthening.
On this day, the imperial ministers agreed that the emperor made a special trip to attend the meeting.
"Li Gang, I think the army's meat needs to be improved!"
"Please make it clear to you."
Li Gang was also confused.
Now the supply of the Song army can be regarded as a luxury, and every meal must be half a pound of meat.
This was something that I never dared to think about before Jingkang. It was a treatment that only civil officials could get. In the army, at least Du Yuhou could eat meat every time.
The emperor actually disliked this group of food not good enough?
Do you need to add more meat?
You should know that the pork from the army is supplied by a special trading company, and the amount of meat is added. I am afraid that the amount of meat from the people will decline, resulting in a price increase in pork.
Moreover, the number of troops in the Song Dynasty was getting more and more than one year after another.
Xu Churen was also worried, and the supply of the army can barely bear it now.
If it increases further, it will inevitably change the supply of the people and lead to rising prices.
As prices rose, the emperor wanted to attack him Xu Churen again.
So, before Zhao Huan could say anything, Xu Churen had already stood up: "Your Majesty, if you increase the amount of meat, it will probably affect the price of pork among the people. Then the people will be affected. Please think twice."
"I'm not trying to increase the amount of meat." Zhao Huan said suddenly, "I want to bring beef into the army!"
As soon as the emperor said this, the ministers were stunned.
Eating beef was too normal for Zhao Huan in later generations, but it was very abnormal for ancient people.
At least, eating beef is illegal!
China has established its country with agriculture since ancient times. It has been several times in the extremely prosperous dynasty of the Song Dynasty, and agriculture is still the foundation of people's livelihood.
Otherwise, what to eat?
Since agriculture is the foundation of people's livelihood, as the most important tool in farming, its value is irreplaceable.
If you eat beef, it will be equivalent to destroying the farmers' tools for farming.
This is the root of breaking the country!
Even the famous tyrant and the tyrant Yang Guang in history cannot do such a mess.
The ministers looked at the emperor as if they wanted to see the flowers from the emperor's face.
Is the emperor's brain broken today?
Or didn't sleep well last night?
Or, is it scared again?
Damn it!
The ministers said at the same time.
Emperor, you want to kill people and slaughter the rebels cleanly. Even if they kill people, we can speak beautifully, and history books can praise your wise and wise master.
But now you have to turn on the taboo of eating beef. Isn’t you going to destroy your country?
How rich is now in the Song Dynasty, at least the food that the Song Dynasty eats will grow from the fields!
Seeing that his ministers were almost crying, the emperor said, "Doctor Hu, tell me about the benefits of eating beef to my husband!"
"Yes!" Doctor Hu smiled bitterly, and he felt a little 10,000 horses galloping in his heart.
He felt that the husbands looked at him as if they were killing people.
It seems to be saying: You are so careful when you speak. If you dare to instigate the emperor to open the beef ban, we will eat you!
Hu Taiyi said: "Eating beef in the cold winter has the effect of warming the stomach and is a good supplement for the cold winter. Beef also replenishes the middle and nourishes the qi, nourishes the spleen and stomach, strengthens the muscles and bones, eliminates phlegm and suffocates wind, quenchs thirst and saliva. It is suitable for people with sunken middle qi, shortness of breath and weak body, sour muscles and bones, anemic long-term illness, yellow face and dizziness."
The ministers' eyes when they looked at Doctor Hu had completely turned into the cannibalistic look, and they wanted to beat Doctor Hu on the spot.
You quack doctor, if you don’t go to the harem to treat your illness, you will run to the court to tell others what you are doing!
Doctor Hu wanted to continue to say that he had been interrupted by Xu Churen: "It's nonsense! If eating beef is beneficial, the ban will be lifted. Then everyone will eat beef from now on, who will farm the field?"
Li Gang also cursed: "Doctor Hu, you are confusing the public and chaotic court, and you should be punished!"
Doctor Hu was so scared that his face was pale and looked at the emperor with a look of help.
Zhao Huan waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, don't blame Doctor Hu."
Xu Churen said: "Your Majesty! This matter must not be done. If the court lifts the beef ban, it will inevitably affect agriculture. That is the foundation of the country!"
"I know, I know, Mr. Xu is worried too much."
Zhao Huan sighed and said earnestly: "Since there are so many benefits to eating beef, we should find a way to make it a food that the people can eat normally. In this way, I, the Song Dynasty, have a strong body and a new mental outlook. Isn't it also a move to make a strong country?"
absurd!
Xu Churen almost said these two words, but he was afraid to say them in his heart.
Seeing that these ministers were unmoved, the emperor continued, "You are nothing more than worrying that the people will not plow the fields after eating beef."
"This is easy to deal with. All croquettes are registered with the local government and cannot be slaughtered at will."
"The beef on the market is all grown by specialized trading companies, and not farmed cattle!"
"The court strongly supported the civilian breeding of cattle, and for the first three years, it was only allowed to open to the army, but it was not allowed to sell it among the people. Three years later, the number of cattle increased across the country and then opened to the people."
Zhao Huan seemed to have done this.
Then, his tone suddenly became serious: "Everything has a solution. If we are good to the people, we must implement it. If we encounter difficulties, we will find a way to solve it!"
"If you say something happens, it doesn't work, that's not possible! You can't do it, and if you do that, you will have bad consequences! Then what's the use of me?"
The ministers quickly saluted: "I am aware of the crime!"
After being told by the emperor, Xu Churen will be able to accept it at that time.

The computer system crashed! The whole person exploded!
All the previous manuscripts are gone!
Don't ask me why it doesn't exist on my hard drive!
Mad! I don’t know that A’s computer disk does not have an external hard drive!
I didn’t expect that Apple’s system would crash if it crashed!
It was really caught off guard!
