It wasn't until he traveled through the Eastern Han Dynasty that Liu Cang faintly discovered that modern people have rather ignorant arrogance and pride.

Ancient people were really not stupid.

Music, chess, calligraphy and painting, vertical and horizontal combinations, exquisite craftsmanship, natural observation, and many other things are unintentional. Just talking about a pig problem, modern people's understanding of the ancients is innocent and cute.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, domestic pigs were divided into two types.

how to say...

To summarize simply, dolphins and pigs are different.

This difference does not refer to the difference between big pigs and piglets. Piglets are small dolphins, and more edible pork also comes from large dolphins.

People in the Eastern Han Dynasty don’t eat pork? The poor can’t afford it? The rich think it’s cheap meat?

Stop making trouble, I have already said that I am not stupid, some pork is really inedible.

It has nothing to do with psychology, it does affect physiology, and it can kill people.

What is a pig? A pig is the subordinate of the family.

As the saying goes, there is no home without pigs.

In other words, in this era, pigs basically existed in the homes of people from the Central Plains who could be truly settled.

People cannot survive without eating, drinking and eating.

The so-called keeping pigs at home does not mean raising pigs to eat meat, but an important part of solving the problem of Lazarus in the home.

People call edible pigs pigs and dolphins, but usually they cannot call them pigs.

Okay, it's a bit vulgar, pigs (shi, three sounds) are raised under the hut, and their main food, haha...

This kind of pigs are inedible. They are filled with odor, germs, and parasites inside and out. There are also pigs raised in this way in modern times. Most of them are in Africa.

Africans don’t eat pigs. What kind of religious beliefs are there? Don’t talk nonsense. What don’t they eat? Ask them whether they believe it or not. Do they really think they are stupid?

People in the Eastern Han Dynasty did not eat pigs. One was to ruin their families, and the other was that they did not want to die.

As for the modern little clever guys, how do you castrate pigs to deodorize them? Haha, people can castrate them, but you said they can’t castrate pigs.

Compared with pigs, dolphins are different.

Yuezhu is a pig, which literally means a newborn piglet. It is also a pig that is fed with pig grass residue.

Pigs eat a lot, and if you want to raise dolphins properly, you basically need to dedicate dedicated manpower to take care of them.

This also leads to the fact that there are not many people raising dolphins among the people. Some families with better conditions will raise pigs and occasionally get some fodder. Their main function is to solve the hoarding in the latrines at home.

Cattle cannot be killed casually, and poultry are often expected to lay eggs, which are so-called chickens. Horses, even mules, are very precious.

In addition to game, the main meat sold in the private market is still pigs and sheep.

Among them, the butcher has become an important link in releasing goods and checking.

Although many outsiders dislike butchers, butchers still have a considerable social status among the common people.

In addition to needing to raise dolphins on a certain scale, they also need to have a good reputation in selling meat.

What animals can and cannot be killed, what can and cannot be sold, these are all aspects that the butcher needs to be responsible for.

To this day, due to the influence of today's Confucian culture, people in the middle and upper classes of society mostly criticize those who kill pigs and dogs.

But in fact, the social status of butchers is not as low as imagined.

If you have responsibilities, you will have status. This is common sense.

When you have status, you must assume responsibilities. This is also the common sense of the ancients.

Well, regardless of those dynasties that were dominated by beasts...

However, the awareness and attention some ancient people attached to their responsibilities and the emphasis they placed on word of mouth may be somewhat difficult for modern people to understand.

As for the late Han Dynasty, people had a far more derogatory view of butchers than usual. The fundamental reason for this was probably due to the high-ranking uncle He Jin who was a butcher.

It is precisely because of the so-called credibility aspect that Liu Cang doesn't mind Liu Bei saying that he raises livestock for slaughtering, but he attaches great importance to the difference between dolphins and pigs.

Liu Bei was not ignorant in this regard, but in his opinion, it was not easy for Liu Cang, a single-family member, to raise dolphins.

In his early years, Liu Cang raised more than a dozen pigs, which already earned him praise from the elders in the village, but he still managed them early to prevent theft and fat loss.

A fourteen-year-old boy who loves food and is very brave. It is the age when he wants to be playful and wild.

Liu Bei did not believe that Liu Cang could persist in this kind of work, spending all day raking pig grass, cleaning pig manure, guarding against theft, circling around the livestock, and saving others by himself.

And this kind of work is also quite tiring.

Among his own clan, Liu Bei was quite fond of Liu Cang.

Liu Cang is close to him in one aspect. The most important thing is that Liu Bei, by nature, likes those who can fight...

Liu Cang's current eighty-year-old physique has surpassed most adult men in terms of strength. Although his martial arts skills are impressive, he is still only a fourteen-year-old child after all.

Speaking of which, Liu Bei pays a lot of attention to Liu Cang on weekdays. Well, at this stage, it’s hard to say that Liu Bei is deep in thought.

As for the root cause of concern? It’s idle!

Yes, free.

At this stage, apart from weaving and selling shoes, Liu Bei has nothing else to think about...

"Haoxuan is born with great strength. He should practice martial arts diligently. His years are still good and should not be delayed by trivial matters." Seeing that Liu Cang didn't mind the slaughter of livestock, Liu Bei looked serious and gradually took on the attitude of his elder brother admonishing him.

"..." Liu Cang was silent.

He doesn't like people saying that he is born with strength. His strength comes from hard work since childhood.

The golden finger of the life department is too weak, and my own 'template' is an out-and-out common people.

Being told about natural strength by someone who was 'born divine' made him feel a bit uneasy.

"Although my brother is not good at fighting in battle, his sword skills are quite good. If Haoxuan is willing, why not practice with my brother?" Seeing that Liu Cang did not refute, Liu Bei felt happy, thinking that Liu Cang had listened to his advice.

, invited Liu Cang.

"The Six Arts of a Gentleman? Haha, my eldest cousin, you should work on your body more when you have time." Liu Cang was slightly stunned, and turned his head to Liu Bei.

"In the early years, I often invited you to eat together, but I didn't see that you had the strength to work hard. Your sword skills can be mastered after seeing it twice, and you are not as good as Old Man Jiao in my courtyard. I don't have the karma you have." Liu Cang

It seemed like a joke, but Liu Bei also rolled his eyes.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After all, he is still in his youth, and Liu Bei does not yet have the momentum and depth of later generations.

In addition to being much stronger than ordinary people, my cousin is also very careful about his diet because he has lived alone since he was a child.

His family's financial resources were limited, and he didn't like to run a lowly business. However, Liu Cang had raised dolphins and chickens at home in his early years, and he often set traps in the forests and fields for hunting.

"You brat, you will be disrespectful if you say anything disrespectful. I, the brave men of the Liu family, are rare. The ancestors were good at controlling people and mediating. I am determined to serve my brother in the right way. You kid just don't understand." Liu Bei defended, with a real sense of pride on his face.

Eaters are short-tongued, and Liu Bei has really been eating and drinking with Liu Cang a lot these years.

Liu Cang spoke casually, which made it difficult for Liu Bei to act like his brother for a long time in front of Liu Cang. Knowing that Liu Cang had no ill intentions, he had no resentment towards his brother's teasing.

"..." Liu Cang was silent, his eyebrows twitching slightly.

'This guy...'

Liu Cang found that Liu Bei's words seemed to come from the sincerity. He felt uncomfortable for a moment, but found it difficult to retort.

Liu Cang's constitution is eighty, and his upper limit will be over 100.

But these are not his natural attributes.

When he was first born, he had the attributes of a Zhener Zhener ordinary person, with an upper limit of physical fitness in his early sixties.

There is only one way to increase the upper limit of physical fitness, and that is - eating.

The upper limit of physical fitness has nothing to do with any kind of exercise. Even some overloaded exercises will lower the upper limit of physical fitness.

Continuously eating and digesting high-quality food and blood, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle are the only ways to improve your physical fitness.

But a high upper limit of physical fitness does not mean that your physical fitness is strong. If you want to have stronger physical fitness, the only way for normal people is to exercise.

Liu Cang's actual physical fitness now even exceeds the upper limit of many ordinary people's physical fitness. Over the years, he has not only focused most of his energy on collecting food, but also has never stopped working hard on weekdays.

And Liu Bei...

This guy was classified by Liu Cang as one of the "born holy" people.

Through observations over the years, Liu Cang estimated that all the famous ministers and generals in history probably belonged to this type.

Let’s not mention Liu Bei’s karma attribute for now. Years ago, when Liu Cang first met Liu Bei, his upper limit of physical fitness had already exceeded 200.

And after so many years, Liu Bei's actual physical fitness is actually less than eighty.

He turned his head and threw another attribute check on Liu Bei.

Sure enough, physique: 78/231.

When he lamented that Liu Bei wasted his physical attributes, Liu Cang's eyes twitched twice uncontrollably.

The upper limit is 231? Has it increased? How did it increase?

The upper limit of the physical improvement of level one blood food is 1-120, and the upper limit of level two blood food is only 1-160. The upper limit of physical fitness does not increase with age, and usually only declines.

Compared with the last time I looked at Liu Bei's attributes, his current physical limit should have increased by two points. Liu Cang has never seen ingredients above level two.
