"I’m really hungry. I really want to eat when you come!"
Zhao Yucheng brought a plate with some big cakes, a plate of black sauce and a big clay pot.
Su Yonglin rubbed his hands and opened the clay pot, and a strong smell of meat floated out.
"Good meat porridge!"
Su Yonglin couldn’t help eating desire immediately, and immediately took a big bowl and drank it. A bowl of it was especially comfortable for the whole person, and his appetite was opened.
"Yesterday, there were a lot of things left at the party, and my uncle said not to pick out the leftover meat. We cooked porridge together and drank a lot of it."
"Yeah, good, good."
Su Yonglin picked up a big cake, dipped it in the dipping sauce, and then began to bite and swallow. He ate two big cakes and drank a bowl of porridge in one breath, which was the bottom of Ruye’s stomach.
Su Yonglin has been able to eat martial arts since he was a child, and now he can eat even more when he spends a lot of money marching and fighting.
Usually, when eating with soldiers, I drink porridge. At least three bowls of dry rice are also three bowls. At first, I always eat a big bowl with a face like that, unless there is some rich side dishes to eat food, I really eat a lot.
But victory army food is enough to eat.
In this era of insufficient productivity, non-staple food is of course insufficient. If non-staple food is insufficient, people will eat more food, and at this time, the grain yield per mu is several times lower than that of modern times.
It is really not so rich to eat food with an open stomach if you eat more with less.
But this is not the main reason for hunger everywhere.
If the land in China grows grain, it will be enough to eat if it encounters some rare natural disasters, and the grain output will generally keep up with the population growth rate.
It is obviously unfair to evaluate the famine that goes hand in hand with the lack of historical productivity in China
People and land have done their best. People have worked hard to produce land, and the total output has not fallen to the point of starvation every year.
Blaming all problems on productivity obviously ignores human subjective initiative.
Exploitation and oppression of land annexation may also be one of the important reasons why farmers can’t get the food they deserve.
Keeping the peasants hungry, well-fed and wandering around is the most beneficial to rule. At that time, the peasants were the most obedient and gentle, and they would not make trouble if they had a bite to eat.
Too hungry will rebel, too full will have more pursuits, which is not good for imperial rule.
It is the natural consensus of the imperial ruling class that farmers should maintain a standard of living that is neither hungry nor full.
If farmers can get the land and food they deserve, it is not difficult to eat their stomachs and they will not starve to death easily.
However, such a delicate balance can not always be easily achieved, and greed will always add chaos to imperial policies.
Think about Chao Shouyi Xu Jie, his family’s hometown Huating County, which has 200,000 to 300,000 mu of fertile land. When the land is annexed to a heinous level, you can probably feel how much possibility the phenomenon of exploitation and land annexation has caused farmers to starve to death frequently.
It is not difficult to feed 100 million people in the thirteen States of the Song Dynasty, nor is it difficult to distribute them.
The ruling class, the nobles, enjoy themselves at will, and the peasants will starve to death frequently after a huge wave.
Is the land in China barren?
Everything is idle in the world, and only tens of millions of farmers are starving to death?
This is a question worth discussing.
Thinking about this problem, Su Yonglin ate up this breakfast and even the sauce on the plate was wiped clean by Su Yonglin’s pie.
Zhao Yucheng watched Su Yonglin eat so fiercely and he didn’t eat enough.
"Uncle Yuting, if you don’t have enough to eat, I’ll get it for you at the rotor camp."
"ah? Oh! Full, full, full. "
Su Yonglin patted his belly quickly.
When I was eating, I thought about something and ate it unconsciously. In normal times, this is indeed the limit of my appetite.
"I just thought about something and ate it unconsciously. Thank you."
Zhao Yucheng nodded happily and touched his head.
"I am very happy that Uncle Yuting can eat enough. Anyway, I am now a Qinbing captain. If Uncle Yuting needs anything, just tell me that I can help you!"
Su Yonglin suddenly remembered that Zhao Yucheng had lost the battle.
"Come and sit down."
Su Yonglin patted the chair beside him to let Zhao Yucheng sit.
Yu-cheng zhao nodded and sat very obedient.
"Tell me how you defeated that battle?"
Yu-cheng zhao was a dark bowed their heads and slowly put himself defeated by 8 jin j said it again.
Su Yonglin sighed after listening.
"Even if you let me fight this battle, I can’t win it. There is a big gap between us and the gold thief cavalry, especially when they have a lot of cavalry. How can we fight the field when we have to fight the offensive and defensive? Brother did something wrong. "
"I tried to dissuade him many times, but my father wouldn’t listen."
Zhao Yu’s imaging is that he finally found the object to talk to, which seems to be complaining. "I have told my father many times that I can’t fight against the gold thief in the front field. The cavalry should break my retreat and lead the gold thief to the front of the military camp, but my father doesn’t want to."
He is willing to listen to other people’s opinions and send people out to fight with the Golden Thief. I am really worried that I will have an army of soldiers and horses to retreat. As a result, I didn’t expect that there were too many Golden Thief cavalry coming directly towards me. I was surrounded by the road and the retreating army soon collapsed … "
