Lucky husband
Chapter 102 Promotion of Taro
The live chickens and pheasants of the county government ate the taro brought back by Li Chengshi. Two days later, the two chickens ate up the taro.
After another two days, probably because they got used to the atmosphere in the county government office, the pheasant began to wander behind the domestic chicken, much more energetic than before. It is worth mentioning that both chickens are fine.
Then, Zhao Chengze had the pheasants and domestic chickens killed, got two dogs, and fed the meat of the two chickens to the dogs.
Two days later, the dog that ate the chicken was fine.
Zhao Chengze asked Li Chengshi to take people back to his village. Several other surrounding villages dug taro to the county government, put the taro in a cloth bag, and stated the source. Together with his letter stating the situation, he called people day and night. Concurrently, send them to the capital at high speed.
Six days later, Mr. Zhao received the things from Zhao Chengze. After reading the letter, he dared not send it to him immediately. He roasted a few taro and tried it first. Each doctor checks the taro separately.
At this time, it was already the end of May, and the weather became hotter and hotter. Many people in the north could not survive, and began to run south on a large scale.
Without further ado, Mr. Zhao took the taro, the letter and his experiment results from his son and went directly to the palace to face the saint.
Emperor Yongjia of the dynasty was very diligent and caring for the people. When there was a sign of drought this year, he convened six officials to discuss how to deal with the drought and reduce the damage to the people of the country. All the governments in the north have opened granaries to distribute relief. Food and disaster relief silver from the treasury are on the way, and they should be able to reach various places by early June.
Zhao Chengze's letter caught the attention of Emperor Yongjia. As a diligent emperor, he knew what taro was, but just like everyone else, he felt that taro was poisonous and could not be touched or eaten.
But it happened to be a disaster year, Emperor Yongjia felt that he should take a look. If the taro is edible, the number of people suffering from the drought will be reduced by a large part. He immediately called the imperial doctor Zhao Chengcong Changping The taro from the county was sent to the outside of the capital to find the taro from the river bank here.
After experimenting with chickens, dogs and other livestock, a few prisoners who had committed the death penalty and should be beheaded in the same day were brought out to try the food. After a few days, the result was that the taro can be eaten when it is cooked, whether it is boiled or boiled. Cooked or baked, it is not poisonous.
Emperor Yongjia smiled for the first time after he had been depressed for two or three months. He looked at Mr. Zhao, the minister of officials, who followed him to listen to the results: "Very good, very good, I am so relieved that the people of the world have survived this drought. Hopeful."
Mr. Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead, some were hot, some were nervous: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
In the afternoon of the same day, the emperor asked Xueshi Zou, a scholar in charge of the Imperial Academy, to draft a decree, using taro as an important food for the drought.
This decree spread to all parts of the Dayu Dynasty at an extremely fast speed, requiring parents and officials in all places to publicize it according to the content of the decree.
After waiting anxiously for nearly a month, Zhao Chengze finally received this decree from the capital, confirming that taro is edible, but it must be cooked before eating.
It is not easy to publicize this decree. At this time, no one thinks that taro is edible. It is definitely not advisable to force the people to try it. Zhao Chengze thought of a way to boil the taro first, and then cut it into pieces to share with brown rice and corn. Crumble together to cook porridge.
The porridge was so thick that the guards built a shed outside the city gate to serve the porridge. Zhao Chengze did not hide the ingredients for the porridge, and told everyone that the porridge was made of taro.
The people at the gate of the city saw the taro being thrown into the pot, and immediately stayed away from the delicious porridge, not daring to have a bite.
As the porridge boiled longer, the fragrance drifted farther and farther away. Finally, a man in ragged clothes, yellow and thin, who looked like he had escaped from other places, couldn't help it, and reached out to take a bowl of porridge on the table.
The porridge cooked with taro, brown rice, and minced corn is soft and smooth, softening the rough taste of brown rice, with the unique fragrance of taro. Because a big pig bone was put in the porridge at the beginning, the porridge There is a meaty smell in it, and the man can't stop eating it.
He was still not satisfied with one bowl, so he picked up another bowl and ate four full bowls before stopping.
The person next to him looked at him with the eyes of a warrior who is going to die: "Brother, does your stomach hurt, is your body itchy?"
"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't itch, this porridge is so fragrant, if I'm not full, I would like to eat another bowl!" The first man to drink porridge found a place to sit down while holding his round belly.
He escaped from the north. His family was already poor, and his parents died early. He could not marry a wife because of the dilapidated house and two acres of Susukida. After the cheap sale, I went to the south to find a way out.
The person next to him continued to say to him: "It sounds like you came from the north, you don't know, I see that the official added taro to the porridge, taro is poisonous, you can't eat it!"
"Whether it's poisonous or not, I'm going to starve to death. Even if it's poisonous, I won't be a starving ghost when I get to Lord Yama. I'll have a good pregnancy in my next life!"
Broken cans, broken, talking about people with his mentality, if they have no money and can’t afford food, they will starve to death one day, so it’s better to eat this porridge made of taro, even if they die, they can be a full ghost.
After him, several people who almost escaped from the north like him appeared one after another at the porridge stall. They drank two or three bowls of taro porridge in full view.
On the first day, I boiled a large pot of taro porridge, and most of it was left over.
The next day, the person who drank the porridge the day before found a few broken bowls somewhere, and waited outside the city gate for the county government servants who gave the porridge to come.
On this day, taro porridge was eaten from morning to night by only a few escaped people, and the locals only watched.
On the third day, it was still the same.
For five days in a row, everyone saw that the people who drank taro porridge were alive and well, and the officials who made taro porridge showed no signs of poisoning. Some courageous people began to have ideas about taro porridge.Everyone thought that since people from the government came out to deliver porridge every day, it shouldn't be poisonous.
So, finally one more person reached out to the taro porridge.
Smelling the aroma of taro porridge, he licked his lips, gritted his teeth and took a sip into his mouth.
His expression froze for a moment, and the others looked at him, seeing that he was stunned, and quickly advised: "Spit it out quickly, don't swallow it!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as their words fell, the man gulped it down, picked up the bowl and poured another mouthful into his mouth, completely ignoring what the people around him were saying.
The others watched him gobble up the porridge and looked at each other, not knowing what was wrong with him.
Putting down the porridge bowl, he wiped his mouth: "It's delicious! It's so fragrant!"
Everyone looked at him nervously: "What? Are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm fine, and I want to have another bowl!" He smacked his mouth twice, looking at the pot with a lot of porridge left, a little ready to move.
"Tell you, taro is really edible. We and the magistrate in the county government now eat taro every day, boiled taro, roasted taro, taro porridge, and taro rice. It tastes very good." Tiantian only remained silent. It was the first time that the porridge cook mentioned taro to the people.
This person was specially selected by Zhao Chengze from among the many servants. His facial features are more pleasing, and his slightly round face makes people less likely to be afraid of him, and it is better to shorten the distance between him and the common people. The meeting scared the people away before they spoke.
A few days ago, he could see that everyone was very reluctant to eat taro, but today he finally waited for the non-northern refugees to come to eat porridge, so he quickly pushed the taro out.
Everyone obviously didn't believe it: "What, the county government eats taro every day? No way."
No wonder everyone didn't believe it, even if everyone had nothing to eat, the adults and officials of the county government would definitely have something to eat, how could they eat taro.
"I'm not afraid to tell you that it was the emperor's order. Our lords didn't know whether taro can be eaten, so we took the lead in eating taro. Anyway, we were fine after eating taro, so my lord asked me to cook taro porridge outside for everyone to eat." I know that taro is a good thing to eat, and it tastes good."
The people present were all ignorant. Hearing what the officer said, he suddenly felt that the county magistrate was an official who cared about the common people.After this incident spread slowly, Zhao Chengze not only promoted the fact that taro can be eaten, but also made his reputation in the local area better.
Seeing that everyone's attitude towards taro porridge has loosened a bit, the porridge cook in the porridge shed picked up a clean bowl, scooped up a bowl of porridge and drank it in front of the big guys.
"Hiss..." The people around were all surprised, they didn't expect that the official working in the county government would really eat taro porridge.
The local guy saw it just now, and handed over his empty bowl: "Guard, can you give me another bowl?"
The guard glanced at him, thought for a while and said, "There is a lot of porridge left in the past two days. Giving you a bowl should not be considered a violation of your lord's order. I'll give you another bowl."
In fact, this man was not really attracted by porridge to those who wanted to drink porridge, but was found by Zhao Chengze. The purpose was to make the people really believe that taro can be eaten.
Originally, Zhao Chengze saw that someone had offered to drink porridge, which should be able to convince everyone that taro porridge is edible. Unexpectedly, for several days in a row, everyone just watched the few fleeing people drink, and none of them took any action.
Therefore, he asked a man to cooperate with the county government servants, and the two performed a scene to convince everyone that taro can be eaten.
"Don't worry, the taro is not poisonous after it's cooked. Just don't touch the taro directly with your hands when digging the taro. Wrap your palm with a thick layer of cloth." Said the servant used tongs to pick it out from the porridge firewood under the pot A few yams that have been roasted all morning, "It's okay to throw the yams by the fire like this and roast them directly."
The outer layer of the taro has been completely burnt. The moment the tongs crack the taro, the unique aroma of the taro explodes instantly. Together with the smell of the taro in the pot, the aroma of the taro in this piece becomes richer.
After the taro was slightly cooler, the guard directly picked up a piece of taro with his bare hands and put it in his mouth, eating it sweetly.
The smell of taro lingers on the tip of the nose. Watching the servants eating taro, the onlookers finally have some belief that taro is edible.
