Chapter 240 Fenggao's Travel Notes (1)
Zhang Yu prepared a carriage for the two of them. Yes, carriage. When they saw the carriage in front of them, they looked a little strange.
Are you not afraid that they will take away the carriage and leave Taishan County directly? Or are they able to make sure that they cannot do anything without it? Thinking of Zhang Yu's Taoist dressing up, they can't help but think about the "Taoism".
"Do you want to leave?" Tian Yu pointed to the carriage. As a prisoner, there was a carriage in front of him. He didn't know why, but he would have the idea of running away.
"Go away, of course you have to go!" Liang Xi didn't care, "Walking is so big as Feng Gao, it takes too much time to walk!"
When I really got on the carriage, I realized that the person who pulled the carriage was just a slow horse, which was not fast and looked very docile.
This kind of horse is unstoppable and runs slowly. If you really want to escape with this carriage, you will probably have been recovered before you go far.
Sure enough, if someone gives you a carriage, it means trusting your character, but it doesn’t mean that they are stupid!
"So, where are we going now?" Tian Yu suddenly lost his temper and simply ignored it and took a look around first.
He felt a little emotional. Zhang Yu was really nice to them. He was worried that they had no money, so he gave them some.
This money is almost the cost of a family of three for a month. In fact, it is the expense of them a day.
"Foodies..." Liang Xi replied, "If you want to know the wealth of a place, you can probably understand what restaurants are for sale and what the price is."
Although Liang Xi is still young and does not come from a famous family, he has unique insights into governance and people's livelihood.
"No wonder you didn't let me eat Gongshi..." Tian Yu joked. When he came here, he realized that there were actually three meals a day. Not long after they got up, they said they could have breakfast, but Liang Xi told him not to eat it first.
Liang Xi smiled and said nothing, just three meals a day cannot be explained by the yamen.
After all, there are people below who provide the consumption above. If the lower part is not full and wearable, then the yamen can be described as "luxury" after three meals a day.
On the carriage, Liang Xi did not forget to observe the people outside.
Generally speaking, even in the Chen State, the people will be in a hurry, otherwise they will be numb.
If you work hard to grow grain, merchants will definitely reduce the price when they go to collect it. They will transport it to you just for a few cents.
In fact, this is still not enough and it is still very unsafe. Often more than a dozen young and strong people come over and leave in a hurry.
Or maybe I have been used to the days when I can’t eat enough, so I can only say that I am still alive and become insensitive.
"Did you see..." Liang Xi suddenly said, "The people on the road are all in good looks."
"I've seen it long ago." Tian Yu sighed, "It must be admitted that the people here are healthier than any place."
Even in his hometown, the people there could not achieve such a look, let alone they looked very stable and no one was in a hurry, which meant that the security in the city was very good.
Not only that, he also saw thieves and arresting officers or defenders patrolling, but the people were not afraid, but even took the initiative to say hello to the other party. This situation was simply incredible to Tian Yu.
"This kind of scene actually appeared in a city under the jurisdiction of the thief." Liang Xi shook his head. It was obvious that this should have appeared in the world of Dazhi. It can also be said that this is the scene that no scholar with ideals wants to see the most.
Unfortunately, it did not appear in the Han Dynasty, but was under the rule of the thieves. For a moment, there was a strong sense of inversion: Who is the official and who is the thief? Is this the Han Dynasty, or is it a thief outside this place a thief?
When I arrived at a roadside restaurant, it was a very ordinary restaurant. This kind of restaurant had no capital and could not buy any good goods.
But because of this, the food in this restaurant directly represents the minimum standards and minimum prices in this city!
"Shop, what are you eating?" The two of them entered the store. There were customers here, but not many, so it was easy to find a seat.
Those who really need breakfast will eat about half an hour ago. At this time, they are basically working, and few people are still eating breakfast.
I'm still eating, and my family is in good condition, so there is no need to come here to eat.
"There are pasta, rice, chicken, duck, fish, and meat. Just sign up for whatever you want." The store is a middle-aged man, but the boss's wife is the one who entertains the two. This is a husband and wife, the husband is the chef, and the wife is responsible for reception and settlement.
"So you have any recommendations? Let's make some?" Liang Xi was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled, "Don't make it too expensive to eat."
"The river is more expensive, after all, there are only a few rivers. Chicken, duck, pork, that's really cheap." The boss smiled, "The accents of both of you are not locals?"
"The scholars who passed by have been studying here." Liang Xi smiled, "I heard that everyone here eats three meals a day and joins in the fun."
"It's only two years to do this for three meals a day..." The boss's wife sighed when she heard this, "Thanks to Taiping Cult, it's a problem to live two years ago..."
"Then isn't Taiping Sect a rebel? It's good not to rob the place, why don't you still..." Tian Yu tried to ask, and had already agreed before that he was responsible for saying bad things, and then Liang Xi was responsible for saying good things.
"We can't figure it out that Taiping Cult came to Mount Tai, and did not rob or collect taxes. Instead, tax exemptions were reduced and exempted... Not only that, in the past two years, we have improved farming methods and even developed the "concentrated breeding" technology. The chicken, duck, pork has increased a lot, and the prices have also dropped a lot. In the past, the shop really didn't dare to buy so many materials, for fear of wasting it." The boss's wife sighed.
Perhaps it is a relationship between women, and it is somewhat emotional. It may also be because it is an outsider, so I will give a speech on Versailles.
"Can you still be like this?" Liang Xi and Tian Yu were stunned. Is this a thief? Or is it that he has a wrong understanding of the thief?
"There are so many long-winded people, do you still want to eat?" The shop yelled behind. These two scholars were so annoying. They could yell when they sat down without ordering anything.
If it weren't for the fact that my wife was not very good, she would have thought that the two of them had some bad ideas.
"This is not difficult, so I can't order any expensive things... Otherwise, the store recommends it, and it's better to have some stuff in it," Liang Xi said with a hurried smile.
"How about Sobiao? There are many people who have learned the secret recipes from this government office, and my family is absolutely affordable." The store replied. If you dare to say authentic or delicious food in this kind of small shop, it will be intimidating.
"Yes!" Liang Xi nodded. He knew that the noodles were cut into strips and cooked, like a thin rope, so it was called the soba. However, the taste was definitely not good. After all, the noodles these days were all whole wheat and had a rough texture.
If you really want to calculate, there are probably no steps such as fermentation and noodle... Just talk about steamed buns, which have already appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but the popularization of white steamed buns with noodles should only start after the steamer appears.
In this era, there were tableware for steaming and cooking food, called zeng. The so-called "distillation utensils" unearthed from Mawangdui are actually this. They belong to cooking utensils and are not used for distilling liquor. In the production process of that era, distillation was simply a waste of food.
The two people who were not expecting Suo Bing were stunned for a moment when they waited for the thing to be served.
White noodles with chicken, this soup should be chicken soup, and with some chopped green onion, it makes you feel full of appetite...
