The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Li Ke was forced by the emperor to go to the village of Wannian County together.

Naturally, he looked unhappy.

I kindly asked my father to eat cucumbers, but not only did he not appreciate it, he even threatened to beat me.

Is there such an unreliable father in the world?

Li Ke was riding on the horse, biting the fruit on the horse's pocket chain.

You have to finish eating along the way so that Zhao Chen can't find out.

Otherwise, Zhao Chen would probably give him a severe beating when he entered.

As long as Zhao Chen doesn't discover it, even if Zhao Chen comes back, he will find that the fruits are gone.

It can't be said that he, Li Ke, picked it secretly!

Father, you are so anxious, but has anything big happened? Li Ke asked the emperor.

There are people coming and going on Zhuque Street, but they don't dare to drive horses and gallop at will.

Do you see those chickens, ducks and geese in their hands? The emperor and Li Ke pointed at the people on the road.

Li Ke looked over and saw that each of the people was holding a chicken, duck, or goose in their hands.

Are there so many chickens, ducks and geese this year? It seems that the people are living a good life! Li Ke said with a smile.

He felt that the living standards of the people must have improved.

Otherwise there would be so many people carrying chickens, ducks and geese.

How much was a pound of chickens and ducks in Shu last year? Have you ever known? the emperor asked.

Well, it should be about five cents.

The chickens and ducks in Chang'an City yesterday were worth a penny and a pound! the emperor said solemnly.

Ah? Li Ke's expression changed at that time.

I have never heard of chickens and ducks costing a penny per pound.

how……

Last time, in order to prevent and control the locust plague, I ordered the people of the world to raise more chickens, ducks and geese. Now that the locust plague is over, the number of chickens, ducks and geese is terrifying. The emperor sighed and continued to drive forward.

Then my father went to see my husband to ask him to help me find a solution?

That's not right. I remember, my father, you came up with this method of raising chickens, ducks and geese yourself.

Why are you here asking...

It's none of your business. I know how to make good use of people and do good things. Why do you want a brat like you to talk nonsense here? Before Li Ke could finish speaking, he was scolded by the emperor.

…

Brother Zhao, everything is ready. The peppercorns, chili powder, light soy sauce, and soy sauce you want are all placed in the yard.

The villagers also helped kill dozens of ducks. Look, what else do you want us to help with?

In the Zhao family's old house.

Zhao Chen was lying on the recliner, which was specially made for Zhao Chen by the villagers.

The Zhao family's old house has also been renovated.

It's still the old style, the tiles have been replaced, and the decayed beams have been rebuilt.

The village chief came over and told Zhao Chen that everything was ready.

When Zhao Chen went out, he saw that all the things he wanted were neatly placed on the clean chopping board beside the yard.

Brother Zhao, what do you want these things for? Isn't it for cooking? The village chief frowned.

The ingredients Zhao Chen asked for were all used for cooking.

The village chief also knows that Zhao Chen's craftsmanship is good, but no matter how good his craftsmanship is, he can't eat chicken, duck and goose every day.

Moreover, Zhao Chen can't do all these things by himself.

There are so many chickens, ducks and geese, can they be exhausted to death?

Okay, let's make some snacks for everyone. Zhao Chen nodded.

Zhao Chen had this plan as early as when he asked the villagers to raise more chickens, ducks and geese.

Chickens, ducks and geese can not only prevent locust plagues, but they can also be made into delicious food. Who in the Tang Dynasty has tasted such delicious food?

When the time comes, when they make it, they will have to swallow their tongues?

Snacks? The village chief's face was full of confusion.

Aren’t these chickens, ducks and geese all used for cooking? When can they be used again?

Eat as a snack.

Who would hold such a chicken in their hands and eat it?

Wu Jue, wake up that little guy. How long has it been? He still hasn't gotten up to chop firewood! Zhao Chen and Wu Jue shouted.

Xiao Li Zhi was dragged out of bed by Wu Jue.

The little guy was very unhappy.

He walked up to Zhao Chen angrily, picked up the hatchet and chopped hard on the firewood nearby.

This... When the village chief looked at Xiao Li Zhi looking at Zhao Chen with a cannibalistic look, he was also afraid that the little guy would slash Zhao Chen with his knife.

It's okay. Village chief, please go back and rest. I'll give it to you to try later when it's ready.

Oh, by the way, let the villagers help buy chickens, ducks and geese now, the more the better! Zhao Chen said to the village chief.

Hey, okay! The village chief nodded.

Even if he couldn't believe it anymore, he would not deny Zhao Chen's instructions.

After the village chief left, Zhao Chen and three others were left in the courtyard of the old house.

Xiao Li Zhi was chopping firewood moodily, while Wu Jue was lighting a fire for Zhao Chen.

Hot pot and cold oil. I heard that eating this way is good for your health.

Prepare the dried chili peppers, ginger slices, and garlic granules, then add them to the oil pan and stir-fry, and the rich fragrance will hit your nostrils.

Add some star anise, grass fruit, licorice, cloves, cinnamon, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, salt, sugar, stock, etc.

Spices never go out of style.

Wu Jue, just simmer it over low heat. Don't let it dry out.

And you, chop wood faster, you ate the most just now. After Zhao Chen finished talking to Wu Jue, he shouted to Xiao Li Zhi again.

Xiao Li Zhi was very aggrieved.

The reason why he ate so much was because he followed Zhao Chen here because he didn't eat anything in the morning.

The little donkey who was supposed to be there was bumped all the way, and he was already starving.

Eating too much is not normal.

Moreover, the aunt asked her to eat it!

Xiao Li Zhi had tears in his eyes

I'm spinning around here and there, no matter how I say it, I'm a majestic king, and I really can't live this life.

However, his father listened to Zhao Chen in everything.

His own son, who was honest and upright, was betrayed by the emperor.

Zhao Chen moved out the recliner and lay down on it to rest with a comfortable look on his face.

Sister Xiao Wu, why should he lie down and rest while we have to work? Xiao Li Zhi wanted to collude with Wu Jue and directly launch a general strike for Zhao Chen.

But Wu Jue would not pay attention to him.

He just glanced at Xiao Li Zhi, grunted and rushed over with firewood.

Eh... eh... eh, sister Xiaowu, what are you doing...

Stop chasing, you have to watch the fire, otherwise sir, you should be angry!

Hey, hey, I was wrong, don't pull your ears.

Little Li Zhi was chased and jumped up and down.

Finally, Wu Jue grabbed his ears and dragged him back.

Hurry up and do the work, otherwise there will be no food today! Wu Jue handed the hatchet to Xiao Li Zhi's hand.

Oh, by the way, there is no water in the water tank. Remember to fetch water after chopping wood!

…

Father, my butt hurts!

After driving for a long time, Li Ke felt that his butt was stiff.

Along the way, the emperor didn't even give him time to stop for a drink of water.

Why are you so squeamish?

How long has it been before it won't work anymore?

in those days……

This man is old, and whenever he disagrees, he just misses those days.

Li Ke quickly took advantage of this moment, took a drink of water, and then tied the saddle chain tightly.

Not far away is the village.

But he couldn't let Zhao Chen see him stealing his fruits.

Otherwise, if you really end up getting slapped in the face, you will definitely be punished.

Hey, father, do you think you really have a way to deal with those chickens, ducks and geese? Li Ke asked the emperor.
