The starry sky was particularly bright after the rain. The Winged Knights brought gifts to every family in Lantian County.
The village was too far away, so there were no gifts for the time being. Li Yi only brought a small amount.
The gifts were a bag of dried seafood, oysters, mussels, prawns, shrimps, scallops, seaweed, and small crabs.
A bag weighed three ounces and was used as seafood in hot pot.
When Li Yi was young, it was common in the north or northeast. He would buy a bag and throw it into the pot when eating hot pot.
Later, when the number of seafood was increased, no one would treat it as a good thing anymore.
The Tang Dynasty was far away from the sea, so it was not common to eat it. However, the capital office was special and sold it. Li Chengqi was responsible for the transportation.
Shrimps were the most common in the counties and Chang 'an. The navy of the Tang Dynasty went out to fish them up and directly dried them.
Wontons, dumplings, and steamed buns were good things to eat.
Like tea leaves, every family had some. It was a welfare for the people in the political, military, economic, and cultural center.
Hot pot was being cooked on the yacht. It was not a copper hot pot with a chimney, but a small pot with an induction cooker.
In the entire Tang Dynasty, it was only available on the yacht.
The noblewomen felt that they were in a celestial palace and had never seen anything before.
"It's hot and the soup is ready to eat. Why didn't I dream of it before?"
A woman spoke to a small robot that carried ingredients. They now knew that the small mechanical puppet was a puppet, but it was more powerful.
"Because poverty limited your imagination. Work hard, young man." The robot was not polite at all.
"You're right. I'm too poor." The noblewoman touched her clothes that cost more than 30 yuan and sighed.
She used to think that she was rich and knew that the things in Tranquil Orchid Pavilion were expensive. Princess Yongmu made a lot of money from it.
When she got on the yacht, she realized that Princess Yongmu made money for fun and did not care.
If there was a mechanical puppet in her house that she could chat with, how could she be willing to let it work?
Princess Yongmu slept in the afternoon and continued to entertain people in the evening. She felt tired, but she insisted.
Fortunately, her status meant that she didn't need to cater to others. She cooked the lamb roll with fat and asked Xiao Lan, "Have you eaten yet?"
"Li Lang is eating copper hot pot. He didn't eat the Electromagnetic Land. Should I go get some pickled vegetables?" Xiao Lan loved to eat the pickled vegetables in copper hot pot.
"Let's cook some white meat for the two of us." Princess Yongmu raised her head and glanced at the ocean information shown on the large screen in the dining hall she was in. She said to Xiaolan in a bored tone.
Xiao Lan got up and went to look for Li Yi to ask for something. She also didn't like watching the current shows. She was tired of drifting on the sea.
Li Yi was indeed eating copper hot pot. Everyone seemed to be lively together. Eating separately was not as hygienic as eating at a buffet.
In the Tang dynasty, the rich still ate separately, while the poor couldn't.
"Gang Rou, I went to the city for a stroll and met President Zhong. After that, I discovered a new way to eat in the southern part of the city."
That night, Meng Haoran didn't ask Han Xiangke to come along. Han Xiangke went to look after the children.
"You mean, several people each buy one thing and eat together, turning the southern part of the city into a shared meal?"
Li Yi naturally thought of how others operated. If each person bought one serving, there would be many types of food.
"I can't hide it from you. Tell me, which one is better?" Meng Haoran asked about the two ways to eat.
"In terms of preventing infection, eating separately is better. When making sure that there are no infectious diseases among the people eating together, eating together is more harmonious.
It depends on the occasion. Usually, when I eat with you, we eat separately in the cafeteria. Now that we are eating hot pot, the Electromagnetic Land is uncomfortable.
Let's drink. The wine made with ginseng and wolfberry is a little bitter, but the aftertaste is sweet. "
Li Yi couldn't give a definite answer. He picked up the small wine cup and took a sip.
Xiao Lan came in and nodded to the others first. She moved closer to Li Yi and said, "Li Lang, I …"
"Pickled vegetables and white meat. Wait a minute. The pickled vegetables are ready. The white meat will take two minutes."
Li Yi didn't wait for Xiao Lan to finish. He picked up the cooked white meat slices and put them into the pot.
The least greasy way to eat white meat was to cook it with pickled vegetables. It was the same principle with pickled vegetables and meat.
Taohong took the plate and prepared to serve.
… …
Under the same starry sky, Tubo's Princess Jincheng's palace was also eating copper hot pot.
The air pressure was low, and the boiling point of water was low. Everyone had a way.
They used the pressure cooker to make chicken soup and big bone soup. The mutton and yak meat were frozen slightly and cut into thin pieces.
While it was hot, they were quickly put in and cooked.
In fact, the best way was to stew hot pot. They were all cooked in the pressure cooker.
"Nuu, the dried seafood from the palace last time was exchanged for a lot of things in India. They also like to eat it."
He picked up the scallop meat from the hotpot. It was dried before it was delivered. Just like the other seafood, it was pre-selected.
Big scallops, big oysters, big rainbows, big prawns, big sea cucumbers, big abalones, and even the shrimp skin were all intact.
The things sent from Chang 'an were all hand-selected. After all, they were only sent once. What was the point of sending bad things?
Princess Jincheng put down the soup bowl: "The inland is far away from the sea. Seafood does have a unique taste. If you want to exchange with India, Tubo can exchange in Chang 'an. "
Nuu understood. In the future, Nuu won't give dried seafood to exchange.
Tubo went to the Tang dynasty to trade and exchanged things. They only gave a part of it and gave it to Nuu according to the price of dried seafood in Chang 'an.
How could the dried seafood in Chang 'an compare with what Nuu got? The size and quality were far from each other.
"I won't exchange with your things in the future." Nuu also thought that it was a loss.
"How can you say that it's my things? Langjun can use it at will. I'm afraid that India will be spoiled. In the future, they won't want ordinary things."
Princess Jincheng was really distressed. The dried seafood that was sent looked about the same size. When she weighed it, it was actually almost the same.
She just exchanged it with India. Did it count as her wages?
"Today, Da Lun went over. The envoy sent a letter back, saying … saying that Li Yi of the Tang dynasty was training soldiers. He made a lot of weapons and was ready to destroy the country at any time.
He also said that Li Yi took out glass sets and good seasonings and asked us to help sell them here. We will keep most of the money.
I think that after a while, the things will be sent here. Da Lun also sent some more people, which we didn't find out before. "
After Nuu Nuu was in a good mood, she talked about the new news.
Bozhu and Isinba's letters arrived, but the things didn't. There was a time difference.
Then, Da Lun prepared to send people to Princess Jincheng to calm down. The price he had to pay now was the price he had to pay.
"When did I kill people? The people I handed over were just to work and eat." The sentimental Princess Jincheng's eyes turned red again.
Thousands of miles away, she could feel the warmth of home. What did her brother-in-law do to scare Da Lun to this extent?
The people who were handed over last time were arranged to work. They didn't kill them. Killing was to vent their anger. Work was more important. They were short of manpower.
This time, they sent people again. The status of the people sent was higher than before. Da Lun couldn't bear the pressure.
