Chapter 2241: Beef and sheep delicious

Zhao Yuanjing said, "Why didn't it happen? I have decreed many times that officials in various places have also encouraged the people to hunt locusts. But you don't know how stupid the people are. Many people think that locusts are punishment sent by the gods and dare not eat them. "

Yun Dai smiled and said: "The emperor, you said, if you give a poor man a penny, will he dare to eat a locust?"

Zhao Yuanjing raised his eyebrows: "Probably dare. I understand what you mean, but with so many locusts, the court does not have so many silver and a penny as a reward."

"Stupid or not, who said that a penny is a penny? What if a penny is a catty?"

"You mean, give money to inspire the people to catch locusts?"

"Yes, but it's not a reward, but the court buying the locusts." Yun Dai smiled, "According to the catty, a penny is a catty. I want to see if the people who think the locusts are gods will go for money. Catch Huang Chonggao. In fact, locusts can be used as medicine, and they are also delicious when fried."

Zhao Yuanjing smiled and said, "Except for you, no one can think of such a ghostly idea."

Yun Dai is modest: "Where and where, I'm just picking up the teeth of the descendants."

In fact, it is best to treat insects with medicine, but pesticides are not yet in the scope of Yundai's invention.

She doesn't have that ability either.

If anyone can do it...

Probably good at making poison cold like frost?

Yun Dai touched her chin, wondering when to find Leng Rushuang to discuss with her about the development of pesticides and fertilizers.

"My eyes are turning, what are you thinking about?" Zhao Yuanjing squeezed her face, "Looking at you so smart, why don't we talk about it, what should I do about the Tubo side?"

"The emperor, I am not a god, and there is nothing I can do about drought on the grassland."

"What about the livestock?"

"Those who have the plague must be buried, not eaten, and not kept to infect other cattle and sheep."

"The herders understand this truth. The key is that the grasslands are dry this year, and there is not enough water and grass for cattle and sheep to eat. A lot of them starve to death." Zhao Yuanjing sighed, "not to mention the herdsmen, it is also heartache for me to look at it. ."

Yun Dai said, "You can eat the cows and sheep that have died of starvation. They are not infected, so they can't be thrown away for nothing."

"I just praised you for being smart, and this time I became confused again. The weather gets warmer, how many days can the dead beef and mutton survive? The herdsmen can't eat one month's meal anymore."

Yundai frowned for a long time, then patted the table: "Then pick it up with salt. It can be made into cured meat, and the storage time can be greatly extended."

"You know how expensive salt is, especially on the Tubo side. The salt was originally bought in exchange. The herders are willing to use a lot of salt to make bacon?"

Yun Dai smiled and said, "If it's anything else, it's all right. This is a trivial matter for my Yunji firm."

"Why, Yunji's business has gone to Tubo?"

Yun Dai proudly said: "It's a coincidence. Last month, I only discussed with Gu Cheng'an to open the delivery channel on the Tubo side, and open the cloud mark over there."

Zhao Yuanjing was pleasantly surprised: "So, if you want to transport things over there, it's not that difficult?"

"That's right. I'm still thinking about the first shipment. What will it be? It just so happens that I will transport salt, all the salt will be transported to Tubo to exchange meat with local herders, and then transported back to sell. Tubo cattle and sheep are delicious, presumably There will be many people who are willing to buy and taste at a high price."

"This is a great idea."

Zhao Yuanjing was happy in his heart, holding Yun Dai's face, and kissing her mouth hard, "Dai'er, you are really my lucky star!"
