Late Tang Dynasty Floating Life
Chapter 1171 Eat Fish
Chapter 1171 Eat Fish
"Just wait here." The officials of the farm supervisor pointed to an open space and asked the carriage to park there.
The guard on duty nodded slightly after seeing Tuoba Yichang.
Tuoba Yichang returned the salute, and prepared to go to the barracks to sell his leave.
The middle official who was familiar with him said in a low voice: "Vice General Tuoba has lost his chance."
Tuoba Yichang was puzzled and asked, "What happened?"
"The sage hosted a banquet for the Chishui Army officers and Changzhi guards outside Huangnu Palace. If General Tuoba was on duty, he would definitely be able to get close to the sage today," said the Zhongguan.
Tuoba Yichang was dumbfounded when he heard the words, and then sighed angrily.
Indeed, in his capacity, he could indeed sit beside His Majesty.At worst, you can get closer to His Majesty.
"Forget it, fate." Tuoba Yichang smiled wryly, "Thank you Zhang Gongjian."
"It's easy to say, easy to say." Zhang Gongjian smiled.
Suddenly, warm cheers erupted in the distance.
Tuoba Yichang looked up, but couldn't see anything clearly.But he knows that this level of cheers is either a reward or a big drink, in short, it is a good thing.
Damn, what leave do I ask for!
Outside the Huangnu palace, a large iron pot has been set up, the fire is blazing, and the heat is dense.
The sun is rare today, dispelling a bit of the chill that filled the world.But don't expect too much, the ghost thing hanging in the sky is as dim as a little red ball, and it looks weak.
This winter is especially cold!
The big iron pot has actually been around for a long time.When Shao Shude conquered the grassland for the first time, he had a big iron pot.But the big iron pot at this time is completely different from the big iron pot at that time.
The weight is not the same, the purity is not the same.Most importantly, the cost is also different.
This is actually due to the progress of metallurgical technology, mainly the progress of concepts.
In the iron smelting workshop in Xiuwu County, Heyang, senior craftsmen have recorded the melting points of various ferroalloys—unfortunately, there is no temperature measuring instrument, so we can only know a rough idea.
Some "iron" can be turned into molten iron, some "iron" can only be turned into a semi-solid substance, and some "iron" cannot even be smelted.To put it bluntly, these so-called "irons" are not real iron, but iron alloys containing a large number of other elements—more precisely, mixtures containing iron.
Different iron alloys have different melting points.If you don’t know this, you will always be confused, and you can only rely on experience to get lucky. This time you can smelt molten iron, but the next time you suddenly can’t.
The salted fish was being stewed in the iron pot, to be precise, it was dried salted fish, which was offered from Dengzhou.
This year, the Ping Navy’s main energy has been devoted to transporting personnel and supplies. There has been less "garrisoning the fields", but a large amount of fish is still obtained. A considerable part of it is naturally donated to the palace, because Shao Sheng once said during his east tour I love sea fish very much.
The lineup of Ping Hai's "Tuntian" was also personally guided by Shao Sheng: more than ten fishing boats were paired with one processing boat.
The caught sea fish are immediately sent to the processing ship to be slaughtered, cleaned, salted, and then dried, and dried salted fish is made by the sun and sea breeze, and sent to the rear.
This is a group fishing method that was rarely seen in the past.This was the case when later generations of Europeans drove small sailboats of thirty to fifty tons across the Atlantic Ocean to fish for cod in Newfoundland.A logistics vessel called a "pocket boat" followed, selling supplies to the sailors on the fishing boats and buying their catch, which was then processed on-site.After the cabin is full, it will cross the Atlantic Ocean and return to ports such as London, Amsterdam, Nantes, Bilbao, Lisbon, etc., and wholesale it to seafood merchants.
The existence of "pocket ships" is beneficial to both parties.It improves the time fishermen spend at sea, and if a fishing gear is damaged, it can be repaired or a new one can be bought.If the captain of the fishing boat is unlucky, doesn't catch much fish, and runs out of supplies, these "pocket boats" can also provide in-kind loans. What a goddamn business genius.
There are many kinds of fish caught in Pinghai Navy, mainly small yellow croaker and even cod.
Shao Shude carefully picked up the cod and looked at it. It should be a North Pacific species, mainly produced in the Sea of Okhotsk.In later generations, when he heard that more than 100 million tons of cod in the Sea of Okhotsk died of old age every year, he felt very fucked.Lao Maozi really can't do anything, even the fishing boats and fishing gear are very scarce, and the treasure land is left to be abandoned.
The cold water area is the main production area of marine fishery.For example, the southern Kuril Islands and Hokkaido waters where the cold current of the Thousand Islands meets the warm current of Japan have created the largest fishing ground in the world.Even when the fishery resources of the famous Newfoundland fishing ground were almost exhausted, the production here was still extremely high and its status remained unchanged.
"Haven't you ever tasted sea fish?" Shao Shude asked with a smile as he threw the fish on the iron plate and grilled it.
"I've never eaten it before." Chishui Army envoy Fan He and others looked at the fish curiously and said.
"Freshwater fish are not very hungry. In times of famine, relying on fish to fill your stomach is just a phantom in the water, but cold water sea fish can. Look at the oily flowers." Shao Shude said happily.
Fan He and the others are all natives of the Northwest. They have only eaten fish from the Yellow River, so naturally they don't know the huge cod, and their eyes are almost round.
"In the Liaohai Sea, no one has fished for many years. Zhao Zonghui told me that they caught a fishing flood once, and the net was full of fish, and they couldn't be dragged. It's a pity that the boat was too slow. It is also not flexible, and it cannot catch up with the dense fish." Shao Shude said.
"Your Majesty, can this dried fish be shipped to Henan?" Fan He asked.
Shao Shude pondered for a while, and said: "It's hard to say. If the first-class national road is built to Qingzhou and Dengzhou, and the weather is colder, it should be possible. It will be difficult when it is hot."
According to Ping Haijun's report, they believe that there will be a fishing season in Liaohai in May, June and October, which are excellent fishing seasons. Fishing is not possible during non-fishing seasons, or the output is definitely not as good as that of fishing seasons.
In fact, Shao Shude didn't know what month the fishing season was.He once remembered that the fishing seasons in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea in the 60s and 21s after the founding of the People's Republic of China were different from those in the [-]st century, sometimes by a few months. I don't know what factors were affecting them.
The fishing seasons in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea must have been more than the two times detected by Ping Haijun.Even he doubted whether the fishing season reported by them was accurate.Maybe it is just an occasional encounter with a rare fish migration, and it is mistaken for a fishing season?Still have to observe and accumulate for a long time.
The long-term "abandonment" of the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea has created a great abundance of fishery resources.Although the fishing grounds in the coastal waters of China are not as rich in resources as the three major resources of the Thousand Islands (Hokkaido), Peru, and Newfoundland, there are also several small fishing grounds in the coastal waters, such as the Zhoushan fishing ground, which was once known as the fourth largest fishing ground in the world.
"It's a pity." Fan He sighed: "If it can be supplied all year round, Luoyang's sons can't afford it."
Not to mention, the sergeants have a lot of money in their pockets. If there is a large supply of sea fish, even if it is not fresh fish but dried salted fish, some people will still be willing to try it.
Shao Shude laughed loudly and said, "If the fishing flood in October is true, it may be available to Luoyang."
An idea suddenly occurred to him.
The former Tang sage set his birthday as a national holiday, which he has never done before.
His birthday is in the twelfth lunar month. If it is designated as a festival and the eating of sea fish is promoted on this day, will it stimulate the development of marine fisheries?
Why did medieval Europeans go to sea to catch cod so crazy?There are actually religious reasons for this.
Catholicism covers the whole of Europe. You can’t eat meat on fasting days, but you can eat fish, which stimulates the enduring cod fishing industry. At that time, [-] to [-]% of the fish eaten by Europeans was cod.Over time, it becomes a cultural custom.There are so many Catholic festivals, such as Christmas Day, Ascension Day, etc., people buy cod in large quantities for food, and even the poor have to do their best to scrape together money to buy some back for the holidays.
The terrain of China is definitely not good compared with Europe, which is deep into the ocean.However, in the winter and spring seasons, it is possible to transport and sell marine fish to inland areas. If it is dried and marinated fish, it is still possible. higher.
But dignitaries don't care about the cost, as long as they are willing to buy.If the east-west first-class national highway is built, it will take a month to transport it from Luoyang to Dengzhou by a large horse-drawn cart. This will provide the possibility for domestic transportation of marine fish, although the price may be relatively expensive.
Thinking of this, Shao Shude decided to start a trend again, and bring the "good things from above" to the extreme.
Sea fish, sure to be the signature festive food for his birthday.As long as the demand rises, more people will be stimulated to go fishing, which in turn will stimulate the development of shipbuilding and navigation industries.
Even if it fails, it’s okay, and there’s no cost to pay anyway, so it’s time to give it a try.
"Share the sea fish with the generals today." Shao Shude gestured with his eyes, and "chef" Li Yixian immediately brought several plates of fried cod.
Shao Shude gave one end to the generals of the Chishui Army, and said: "After a whole year of hard work, I can't treat my son poorly. Sit down, sit down, sit down."
Shao Shude handed down a plate of fish with a smile, and gave a few words of encouragement casually.
The officers and soldiers of the Chishui Army were grateful and thanked them one after another.
After the gift was over, Shao Shude even fried and roasted it with his own hands, and took fish soup and fish meat from the big iron pot, and distributed it to the soldiers.
Although many people despise such a thing as a show, he is really useful.
Shao Shude likes to exchange feelings with warriors and put on a show in front of them.It is one thing to have enough money, but another to have feelings.Sometimes when the feelings are in place, a little less money can be tolerated.When the money is in place and the feelings are in place, it will be a big deal. This army cannot be pulled away by others.
"Do you guys know where this fish is produced?" Shao Shude suddenly asked after raising the wine bottle and having a drink with everyone.
The generals of the Chishui Army shook their heads in a daze.
"Produced in Liaohai." Shao Shude said: "Would you like to go to Liaohai to have a look?"
"Your Majesty, we are all landlubbers, and we don't know how to go to sea." Someone laughed.
"I'm not afraid of anyone. I don't frown when the ants are attacking the city. But I'm afraid my legs will tremble when I'm at sea. I've failed His Majesty's trust."
"As long as the saint orders, I will go down to the river tonight and learn to swim, and I will freeze to death without regret."
The crowd laughed.
Shao Shude also laughed, and held up the wine bottle to drink with the soldiers.
"When did I ask you to go to sea to fight?" Shao Shude put down his wine bottle and said, "After the first month is over, the Chishui Army will march to Dengzhou to listen to orders."
Fan He and others were overjoyed when they heard this.
They have been stationed in Dongduyuan for a long time. Although they are relatively close to the saint, they have no chance to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds.Seeing that it will finally be dispatched next year, I am naturally overjoyed.
Wufu should be happy when he hears the battle.
How do you make money without fighting?How to get promoted?How to confine your wife and son to fight for wealth?
"Your Majesty, do you want me to cross the sea to fight the Khitans?" Fan He asked in a low voice.
Shao Shude picked up the wine bottle, smiled without saying a word.
