Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 262 Compressed Army Food
After exiting the main hall, they felt that they were far enough away from the main hall, and everyone complained about Qiang Li and Yang Duanhe.

"Tell me about the two of you, and ask you to pretend that you can't act? Don't you know what is enough?"

"Yes, it's good now. I've pissed off His Majesty. Your Majesty will take over directly. We won't have anything to eat!"

"I just told you, don't fight with me for the military supply, let me take it over, at worst we will share it in private, we will make money no matter what, you insist on fixing this, and blame me, I quit!"

The crowd started to quarrel, the voices became louder and louder, and there was a rhythm to be played inside the palace gate. Feng Quji and Li Si hurried up to dissuade them and pulled them away.

"Okay, okay, everyone, stop arguing, His Majesty can't take over all the food, and you still have to hand it over at that time, everyone, don't be impatient, don't really let His Majesty know, then there will really be nothing to eat Already!" Li Si smiled and warned everyone.

Li Si's words still carry weight among the ministers. After all, he is a close minister of the emperor and has been following Ying Zheng for the longest time. To a certain extent, he understands Ying Zheng's thoughts better than his right minister Feng Quji.

But Qiang Yan sneered and said: "Your Prime Minister probably said this too early, don't you know what His Majesty is thinking? Since he said that, it shows that he has already made up his mind!"

"It is necessary to make the military rations easy to carry, to make the military rations easy to fill, and to replenish physical strength. This is food that no one can do. It is simply a fetish!"

After hearing this, Feng Quji laughed dumbfoundedly and said, "Old Qiang, you are speaking out of anger. Sometimes you can take your Majesty's words seriously, but sometimes you don't have to take them seriously."

"Food must be delicately prepared, satiate the stomach, and replenish physical strength. As you said, only gods in this world can do it. Your Majesty's original intention should be to let us retreat in spite of difficulties. He It's better to appoint a candidate."

"Yes, yes, yes, the right minister can see it clearly, so I'll just say it!" Hearing Feng Quji's words, everyone deeply agreed.

But at this time, Zhao Yi walked out with a displeased expression on his face. He didn't even have time to start taking a nap, so he heard Ying Zheng say that he could go, and felt that he was too boring.

Before he even had time to propose that he take over the military supply, Ying Zheng actually said that he would take care of it. If he had known this, he would not have come and wasted such a long time. After all, the distance from the Prince's Mansion to the Imperial Palace is not far away. short.

When the officials saw Zhao Yi, their eyes lit up, and they suddenly put aside the matter of military supplies just now, and stepped forward one by one, surrounded Zhao Yi in the middle, and greeted Zhao Yi flatteringly, and said by the way express their own intentions.

"His Royal Highness, how is our relationship? It should be pretty good. Give me a mirror and two thermometers!"

"Yes, Your Royal Highness, I don't want a mirror. I'll give you a thermometer. You don't know, our youngest is weak and often gets sick with fever. I heard that your thermometer is very useful. Can you..."

"His Royal Highness, I also want a mirror and a thermometer. I can buy it with money. You can make a price..."

Seeing this posture, Zhao Yi's eyes were straightened, and he immediately shuddered and dodged to hide. With a sudden effort on his feet, he ran away without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Seeing Zhao Yi running away in a hurry, the officials were all dumbfounded, shaking their heads and sighing helplessly, but they quickly reached a consensus.

The monk can't run away from the temple, the Prince's Mansion is just outside the palace, everyone unanimously decided to go to the Prince's Mansion to find Zhao Yi!

On the other side, seeing the officials leaving, Ying Zheng immediately called Zhang Han over, and wrote Zhang Han the formula for compressing the military rations just as Zhao Yi said in his heart.

"Go to Huangzhuang outside the city quickly, find a secret workshop, and make things for me according to this recipe."

Zhang Han looked at the formula with a dazed expression, "Your Majesty, what is this thing for?"

"Can't you see it? Of course it's for food, so it's extremely clean and hygienic. If there's a problem, I'm asking for you!"

Ying Zheng ordered Zhang Han seriously: "This thing must be made carefully. Once you have the finished product, bring it to me immediately!"

"Observe the order!" Zhang Han listened to what Ying Zheng said seriously, and immediately rushed out of the city, and then immediately handed it over to the food workshop under the jurisdiction of Baiqisi to start making compressed military rations according to the formula.

A few days later, seeing no movement from Ying Zheng, Feng Quji, Li Si and the others felt that it was necessary to talk to Ying Zheng again about this matter.

They still think that Yingzheng has a special candidate, and it is not easy to tell them, so they deliberately present such a problem.

The post of quartermaster is not something that ordinary people can do, otherwise if there is a big war, it is easy to cause big troubles, so they made a special trip to the palace to face the saint.

"Your Majesty, you are currently in charge of military supplies. There is no major war in Daqin at this time, and you can still maintain it. But once there is a big war, you have to take care of the overall situation and also manage military supplies. I am afraid that troubles will easily arise."

"That's why I implore Your Majesty to hand over the military supplies and put them under the jurisdiction of special personnel."

"That's right, Your Majesty, I think that General Yang Duanhe is a prudent man and understands military affairs. He will be able to ensure that nothing goes wrong when he supervises military supplies."

Feng Quji and Li Si obviously had special considerations before they came, and their words were well-founded. Normally, Ying Zheng would have no way to refuse, but now, Ying Zheng changed the topic directly.

"Two prime ministers, as I said before, as long as anyone can make suitable military rations, I will let him be the quartermaster. According to your intentions, can Yang Duanhe meet my requirements?"

When Feng Quji heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly, "Your Majesty, the military rations you mentioned are convenient and easy to store, and can also fill your stomach and replenish your physical strength. It's not something that people can make!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Si also echoed, "That kind of military rations is absolutely impossible, unless there are gods in this world!"

Just when Feng Quji and Li Si were sure that no one could do what Yingzheng said about the military rations, Zhang Han walked into the hall with a food box and bowed down to Yingzheng, "Your Majesty, what you want has been prepared according to Your request has been successfully produced."

When Ying Zheng heard this, the corners of his mouth suddenly turned upward. Zhang Han really came in time!

"Huh?" Both Feng Quji and Li Si were stunned. They didn't understand what Zhang Han was sent by Ying Zheng to do. Why did he bring a food box?
"Submit it." Ying Zheng waved his hand at this time, and Zhang Han immediately presented the suit.

Afterwards, Ying Zheng opened the food box in front of Feng Quji and Li Si. Inside was a pastry the size of an ordinary person's palm. After dividing it into equal parts, Ying Zheng divided one of them into four equal parts. .
