Chapter 386 Tea Eggs

After Sun Quan finished reading Li Qi's letter, he angrily crumpled the silk book into a ball and threw it on the ground: Asking me to go to Yizhou to open up wasteland, isn't this a distribution to the frontier?

In Yizhou's environment, there isn't even a "sixth level bronze".

Now the only person who can have a heart-to-heart relationship with Sun Quan is Zhuge Jin.

Nowadays, Sun Quan doesn't have any arrogance in front of Zhuge Jin. The two drank two glasses of wine and talked heart to heart.

Zhuge Jin said: "In Jin's humble opinion, it is not a bad thing for Marquis Wu to open up Yizhou."

"Oh?" Sun Quan frowned. He originally thought that after hearing what happened to him, Zhuge Jin would also scold Li Qi for not being a human being, but he didn't expect Zhuge Jin to say that this was a good thing. Could it be that Zhuge Jin finally

Betrayed yourself?

Zhuge Jin explained: "With the general trend of the world, only Li Qi and Cao Pi are fighting, and we can't intervene for the time being. It's better to send people to develop Yizhou and wait and see the changes in the Central Plains. First of all, we can dispel Li Qi by moving to Yizhou.

Be wary of us; secondly, we can develop the population and economy in Yizhou and transport resources to Jiangdong in order to make a comeback; thirdly, since Wu Hou is going to Yizhou to open up wasteland according to Li Qi's wishes, he can ask Li Qi to provide money and food

Support.”

Sun Quan was silent for a long time, carefully considering Zhuge Jin's meaning.

Zhuge Jin repeatedly looked at Li Qi's letter to Sun Quan and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This word is so ugly!

Sun Quan thought over and over again and focused on Zhuge Jin's request for resources from Li Qi. He thought this idea was feasible and said, "How about Fan asking Ziyu to go to the Hefei front line to discuss money and food with Li Qi?"

Zhuge Jin paid his respects and said, "Please be patient, Marquis Wu. Jin will definitely fulfill his mission."

Sun Quan stared at Zhuge Jin for a moment, thinking that if he could ascend the throne in the future, Zhuge Jin would be the prime minister.

Because no one is more loyal than Zhuge Jin.

Ten days later, Zhuge Jin arrived at Li Qi's camp.

During these days, both Li Qi and Cao Pi remained stationary until they met Zhuge Jin. Li Qi then held a grand banquet in honor of Zhuge Jin.

The scene was warm and peaceful for a time, until Zhuge Jin mentioned the issue of money and food.

Li Qidao: "Did Ziyu not wake up?"

"Ah?" Zhuge Jin was stunned.

Li Qidao: "What I mean is that Tzuyu has been running around for days and hasn't had a good rest, so his thinking is not clear?"

Zhuge Jin cupped his hands and said, "I hope Li Yizhou will make it clear."

Li Qidao: "We are developing Yizhou to make Yizhou rich. When Yizhou becomes rich, are we still afraid that we will have no money and food? Although the early development of Yizhou requires the input of some resources, teaching people to fish is not as good as teaching people to fish.

, the key issue is how Wu Hou guides the people of Yizhou to develop the economy. This is a matter of political means. I believe that Wu Hou’s ability can handle the Yizhou issue with ease. Come on, Tzuyu tries this."

Reacher pointed at the dark round fairway in a small saucer.

Zhuge Jin looked confused. He recognized this as an egg, but shouldn't the egg be white? How could it be boiled and turned black? Can it still be eaten?

Li Qixiao asked: "Does Ziyu know what this is?"

Zhuge Jin said: "The eggs are just fragrant. I wonder how Li Yizhou cooked them?"

Li Qidao: "I asked the cook to first wash the eggs and put them into the cauldron, add water to cover the surface of the eggs, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to medium heat and simmer for half a stick of incense. After the eggs are cooked, take them out, brew them with cold water, and wait for the eggs to cook.

After cooling down, gently tap the surface of the eggshell until it cracks. Then put it into a cooking pot, add water to cover the eggs, add Yizhou specialty big leaf tea, and various aniseed ingredients, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn down to low heat and simmer for half a column of incense.

time, turn off the heat and soak for another two hours.”

Zhuge Jin followed the principle of "a gentleman lives far away from the kitchen" and had never been in the kitchen. Hearing what Li Qi said, he was confused.

The saying "a gentleman stays away from the cook" does not mean that a gentleman looks down on cooks and therefore wants to stay away from them, but that killing in cooks is too cruel and is not something a gentleman would do, so he should avoid places like the kitchen - even though the food tastes really delicious.

Although Zhuge Jin didn't understand, he always responded with a few words to show respect, so he asked: "After boiling eggs in this way, what do you call them?"

Li Qidao: "Tea eggs."

Zhuge Jin smiled: "Eggs boiled with tea leaves are called tea eggs."

Li Qi said: "Tzuyu may not know that the indigenous people of Yizhou like to eat this food. Marquis Wu can bring this delicacy to Yizhou as a meeting gift with the people of Yizhou. It can be used to entertain guests and teach the Yizhou people."

The people of Yizhou cook their own food. With this wonderful life, everyone will naturally work hard to farm and breed, and the prosperity of Yizhou will be just around the corner. By then, I also hope that Wu Hou can send some resources to the front line."

Zhuge Jin said with a smile: "How can you ask for returns without investing money? When Wu Hou opens up Yizhou, it is impossible for Li Yizhou to just give him a tea egg recipe, right?"

Li Qidao: "Am I such a stingy person? Haha, these tea eggs must be made with our big-leaf tea from Yizhou to be delicious. So I will provide Wuhou with a thousand stones of big-leaf tea."

Zhuge Jin: "..."

This is too stingy.

Afterwards, Pang Tong asked Li Qi why he was so stingy.

Li Qidao: "Without the lactation of the Great Central Plains, Yizhou cannot develop, so there must be resources in the early stage. But I don't want Sun Quan to think that it is natural for me to give him resources. If he takes my resources, he will definitely

We must give corresponding rewards. Zhuge Jin did not mention this, so give him some time to think about it."

As an investor, Li Qi must find a trustworthy person who is good at management to go to Yizhou for supervision.

Wang Li, who followed Li Qi from Xicheng to Yizhou and made great contributions to Zaodao in Champa, is a good candidate. However, Wang Li has grown older in recent years, and his party in Champa almost killed him. Li Qi

How could I have the heart to send him to Yizhou?

After much thought, Li Qi ordered Wang Li's eldest son Wang Lei as a special envoy to accompany Sun Quan to the barbarians with supplies, and also gave Wang Li's second son an official title as compensation.

If Sun Quan is the general manager of the Yizhou branch, then Wang Lei is the supervisor sent by the head office. He doesn't have to do anything serious, just keep an eye on Sun Quan. It would be best if he could give Sun Quan some positive ideas.

Already.

Now it was Sun Quan's turn to be depressed.

He originally thought of borrowing Li Qi's resources to recruit troops in Yizhou in order to make a comeback, but he didn't expect that the resources Li Qi provided were extremely limited, and they mainly focused on big-leaf tea, and he had to send a supervisor to accompany him.

Zhuge Jin meant that if he was idle, he would be idle. It would be better to send people to Yizhou first as a tentative development.

If it is profitable, then appoint Yizhou officials and continue the work for a long time; if it is not profitable, use the failure of development as an excuse and let whoever Li Qiai lets go.
