The result of hacking into the Zhao family mansion was a lot.
However, in addition to more than a hundred people who blindly rushed out and were shot and killed and knocked down in front of the door, as well as hundreds of family members, servants, and subordinates who stayed in the mansion and hid everywhere. There is nothing iqta has gained.
Because it is somewhat surprising that the village lord Zhao Ziri and the defeated army of the natives have not actually returned to Zhaojiazhai; this is also the reason for the defensive strength and resistance here, so weak and empty. They didn't get the news of the defeat in time, they were caught off guard and could only rely on temporarily activating the young men in the village to fill the vacancy on the wall to intimidate the invading forces.
In other words, in terms of their sense of worry, they still stayed at the large-scale fighting in the previous township, and they did not have enough psychological preparation for the rebels who came to attack. They could only gather at the front door and the mansion to resist a little. .
Compared with the main residential area in the village below that has been concocted by friendly forces, the Zhao family mansion at the highest point and the nearby buildings are the most valuable and rewarding places in this attack. .
Hidden under the unremarkable gray roof, five rice bins of full size are filled with piles of sharp grains, as well as loads of salt and copper coins, which overflow with a single touch. But scattered all over the place; compared with the spoils obtained outside Changle County, it can only be regarded as insignificant.
A whole piece of bacon and a fan of dried pigs and sheep hung under the beams of the house, the whole large altar was stuffed with white flower suet, and a large plate of smoked intestines that were as tall as a thick cable. A large tank of soybean oil and rapeseed oil. . . Many of the rice in the lower layer of the cellar was decayed and blackened as mud due to too long time, or only a light and airy shell was left by insects;
But I don't know what kind of exploitation and scraping methods can be used to extract layer by layer from these villagers and villagers who seem to live mostly in tattered and unclothed eating chaff.
In addition to the most common products such as homespun and hemp, which are the most common backlogs in mountain villages by eating ashes in the warehouse, there are also thick and thin silk yarns and cotton spun silk that are piled up in several rooms, and many are obviously not produced or easily produced by Zhaojiazhai. Collect, even objects with distinctive foreign styles or tribute styles;
It shows that the head of Zhaojiazhai has other sideline and income sources that are not visible. This reminded him of the "unsophisticated folk customs" of looting villages that were special products in some remote areas and before the severe crackdown in later generations.
Zhou Huai'an now finally knows why the early Red Army liked to collect money from local tyrants, or how these primitive exploiting classes used all means to amass such a huge wealth.
Especially with the other side of the Zhao family's glamorous mansion, those that are not much smaller than the county jail, are located in the basement of the mansion and are full of corruption and stinky torture chambers, forbidden rooms, crypts and puddles, and There are many torture instruments and objects of unknown purpose, as well as dozens of human bodies that are like walking dead or lingering, waiting to decay slowly or die a little bit;
When looking at everything in this list, it is easy to sigh like "no snowflake is innocent in an avalanche." Although he was not able to catch and solve the righteous master of Zhaojiazhai, after these initial gains, Zhou Huaian could still take advantage of the situation and reward and reward this newly formed team.
For example, that night, the rebels opened their belly and ate the local special "steamed rice", which was full of oil and water, which was a method of sautéing chopped peanuts on the rice and steaming them together with the heavy oil and salt. Soup; the bosses each also have a pot of sangtuo wine and a large amount of haggis-fried bait, a portion of pickled dried oranges and plums.
Zhou Huai’an’s staple food is a large plate of Daigou biscuits, which is a kind of sweet pasta mixed with goat’s milk and chicken noodles, and decorated with chopped candied fruit; the taste is not bad, and it is somewhat close to the chicken of later generations. The cake is dry.
Originally, there was another special red leaf cake to choose from. It was made by wrapping the fried suet and steaming it in the pottery and noodles. Because the taste was too curious, Zhou Huaian just tasted it. I'm going to push it to others in the name of Xie Bumin's sharing.
Although Zhou Huai'an did not drink, he still found Sanlejang, dried plum tea, and apricot and cheese drink among the dozens of drinks in the Zhao family’s private house;
The matching dishes are steamed velvet eggs, simmered oxtails, roasted tenderloin, butternut lamb neck, goose breast in wine sauce, clam tofu, dried moss minced meat, etc., although there are also drunken glutinous rice and raw sliced fish. Can provide it back, but rejected it due to gastrointestinal adaptability and hygiene requirements.
And these are almost all the dishes that the village owner Zhao Ziri enjoys daily as a local tyrant. Although due to the relative scarcity and monotony of the time of this era, in terms of concoction and processing, it will inevitably become more complicated to reflect a certain sense of superiority.
For example, in this Zhao Zhaizhu’s recipe, there are at least five cooking methods for ducks alone, while goose and chicken have seven or eight different ways to eat them; and a piece of lamb can also be changed in different ways. More than a dozen kinds of names and patterns come;
It can be seen that his daily luxuries are extremely desperate. This is only a local tyrant in the Lingnan countryside. It is difficult to imagine the days of the officials and eunuchs living in the city, or the more prominent prestigious prefectures, or It is the home life of the nobles of Gongqing.
Comparing what we see and hear in our daily lives, the chaff of wild vegetables eaten by the common people, and even the bark and grass roots Guanyin soil used to feed their hunger, it is not difficult to understand why there have always been people in all dynasties who have always wanted to get up and die The reason to fight.
It is no wonder that under such a huge contrast, the rebel generals in history have quickly degenerated into the enjoyment of life and ostentation after entering a prosperous city like Guangzhou.
Therefore, under the influence of modern people’s vision and self-control, he only indulged and used it for a short while, and felt that his energy storage had increased slightly; he called the apprentice team and the direct team, the guard team. The bosses, enjoyed and divided up these carefully prepared dishes together.
It’s just that because of some deep-rooted subordination and inferiority, Xiao Qi and Liao Yuan and the others are close friends, but they refuse to sit at the same table with him alive and die. They prefer to carry a plate of mashups. Eating, standing by the side and having a meal is very satisfying.
It wasn't until he lay alone on the soft bed made by Lingluo, covered with a brand-new satin bedding; and after he calmed down in the fullness after digestion, Zhou Huaian discovered that he seemed to be in the past two days. Some of the current positions and temporary roles are too deep and lost, so that they have forgotten to tinker with them. There is not enough need to be publicized or swagger. (End of this chapter)
