Chapter 138 Alfalfa
Don’t think that the ancients were very conservative.
Before the saying "Preserve the laws of nature and destroy human desires" did not appear, the ancients' pursuit of nature was not necessarily worse than the pursuit of individuality by later generations. Sometimes when they get crazy, people today will be stunned.
For example, Wei Jie, one of the four famous handsome men in history, was chased by women on the streets and was later frightened to death.
It can be seen that the ancients were also very crazy in chasing the wind.
Taking the Han Dynasty as an example, the farthest one is the rogue founding emperor Liu Bang.
When he was fighting for the world with Xiang Yu, Liu Bang took off his trousers and was washing his feet, when the ministers came to see him. I never thought that he would just sit still and receive the interview, not caring whether he had been seen through and taken advantage of.
The closer one is like Liu Bei. When he got Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the three of them slept together every night. When he got his new love, Zhuge Liang, he couldn't help but sleep next to him.
And that Mi Heng who dared to take off his clothes in front of Boss Cao.
Otherwise, why would there be a word naked? This word was first used between men.
Wang Xun wanted to be completely Han Chinese, but he honestly abided by the rules.
Later generations of foreigners pursued freedom, equality, and character liberation. Later, domestic people also imitated the same example. They never wanted to learn from it, but they learned it wrongly. Among the four words "character liberation", the word "ge" was not seen. I only saw one of them. Three words - this is so **** amazing!
Finally, as time went on, the divorce rate soared, not to mention that some unspoken rules could be openly discussed. Becoming a groom every day and a bride every night. Instead of being ashamed, you were proud of it. The distortion of your values has actually led to this depravity. .
In the ancient brothel business, you were a groom every day and a bride every night. How can you compare yourself to this? What is there to be proud of?
One more thing, no matter how advanced the foreign technology is, they still want to deify the founding heroes, but what about themselves? But it is a trend to belittle heroes and martyrs, not to mention overturning history and pouring black water on it.
This is a typical example of national self-confidence and lack of self-confidence. It is not wrong to imitate others. The mistake is that you only learn their form, but not their spirit, or even the form.
Wang Xun was not confident before, so he became more confident after following Zhao Guang and Feng Yong.
But if he were to be like Feng Yong and Zhao Guang, who no longer cares about his behavior in front of his brothers, he probably wouldn't be able to adapt to it all at once.
Feng Yong also knew this very well, so he sometimes behaved casually in front of him, in order to give Wang Xun a hint and let him get rid of his inferiority complex.
After all, he is his confidant. If his confidant cannot hold his head up in front of others, then wouldn’t he be regarded as a failure as an elder brother?
"That's the case, brother. The younger brother followed his brother's instructions and went to Yang'an Pass to meet General Ma."
Wang Xun said and glanced at Zhao Guang.
Zhao Guang was studying how to put on a woolen sweater and didn't even pay attention to what Wang Xun was saying.
“Oh, what did General Ma say?”
Feng Yong asked after putting on his clothes.
"General Nama said that the alfalfa mentioned by his brother has indeed been seen in the land of Xiliang. When Emperor Xiaowu got the hard-earned horse, he also planted that alfalfa in Chang'an to raise the royal horse. But later Xiaowu fell. Because of the imperial edict, most of the rare things in the palace were destroyed. The alfalfa also wandered to the people, but it was considered useless by the world, so few people knew about it. But Xiliang was originally a place for producing horses. So some people use it to feed horses."
There are many types of alfalfa, and the best is alfalfa. It is native to Asia Minor, Iran, and Transcaucasus. It was this species that was introduced to China by Zhang Qian, the great explorer.
What is the best green fodder for horses? It's alfalfa. Because it is the most cost-effective, and horses also like to eat it.
Having high water content and sugar content, it is the best choice for making silage.
And this thing can also be used as a dish when not eaten.
It is a pity that because of Han Wu’s sinner edict, this good thing was also regarded as one of the evidences of Han Wu’s great success.
After being exiled to the people, they were regarded as useless weeds. In addition, the people did not raise horses, so they naturally did not know its benefits.
Feng Yong now wanted to start storing green materials. He suddenly remembered that he had seen this thing before, but when he wanted to look for it, he found that not many people knew about it, let alone where to look for it.
Food is the number one problem in this world. Who knows that kind of weed?
Fortunately, there was also Ma Dai who was from Xiliang. Xiliang was connected to the Western Regions and was a horse-producing land, so Feng Yong still asked Wang Xun to bring a message out of luck, but he never thought that he would actually ask.
Logically speaking, when it comes to sending a message to Ma Dai, calling Zhao Guang is the best choice.
But Feng Yong knew that at this time, he was already frantically testing Zhuge Lao Yao's tolerance.
For example, you know that the other party intends to marry Zhang Xing to you, but at my age, when my hormones are increasing day by day, you still want me to wait for another six or seven years - this kind of thing is not my fault, of course. It’s not something I can control!
How do you say the sentence "Later Generations"? Made the same mistake every man makes.
It is not normal to fall in love with Guan Ji?
So Feng Yong felt that it would be better to irritate Old Demon Zhuge less.
Asking Zhao Guang to go will make people think that a private shady transaction is going on? What if Old Demon Zhuge misunderstands me?
Furthermore, this also easily led Ma Dai to make wrong judgments: Can I have more of this pasture?
It was different to ask Wang Xun to go, it seemed a bit business-like, and at the same time, Feng Yong could clearly convey the message to Ma Dai: This ranch is private, not family. It's only for you, General Ma, not for the Ma family.
If Zhao Guang is really asked to speak, can he speak out?
Even if Zhao Guang can speak out, will Ma Dai have a grudge in his heart? After all, their seniority is there.
Even though Ma Dai didn't mind, this kind of fat profit was only given to Ma Dai but not to the Ma family. People in the Ma family dare not do anything to Ma Dai, because Ma Dai is now the one who talks to the outside world.
It won’t do anything to Feng Yong, because Ma Dai now represents the Ma family outside the country.
But they will definitely do something to Zhao Guang—others don’t know what’s going on in the Ma family, don’t you know?
As long as he goes to Zhao Guang's nominal wife and complains, Zhao Guang will definitely not be able to escape a beating.
This principle is just like when Feng Yong was a child, the adults in the village were all his elders, but you didn’t know whether to call him uncle, uncle, or grandpa? I don’t know whether to call him second uncle, third uncle, or uncle?
Those who shout the wrong words or fail to say hello will basically be told by their elders to give a few words to their family members, and then they will receive a political education to avoid being said that their family has no ethics. The older generation still cares about face.
Hence why it is better not to cheat your own brothers.
Although this guy often gets himself into trouble unintentionally.
