Chapter 825: The Great Hundred Feasts

What does it look like for the most powerful country in the world to hold a state banquet for more than seventy foreign heads of state at the same time?

Few can imagine.

But one thing is for sure, this kind of big state banquet is absolutely very, very shocking, just like the military parade that has just ended.

And that's exactly what happened. Emperor Mingzong, who was in a good mood, turned out to be the "Great Hundred Banquet" at noon today!

The so-called Great Hundred Banquet is the name of a kind of banquet, just like the famous "Manchu and Han Full Banquet" in China in the previous life.

It's just that the great feast of Dahua in this life is far more sumptuous than the Manchu and Han banquets in the previous life.

In the previous life, the Manchu and Han banquets were made by Manchu and Han Chinese chefs, with a total of 108 dishes, 54 southern dishes, 54 northern dishes, 36 cold dishes, and 72 hot dishes, all of which took three days for guests to eat. It is known as the pinnacle of Chinese cuisine.

In this life, Dahua, because there were no Qing soldiers entering the customs, and there were no Manchus controlling the government for more than 200 years, so there was no Manchu and Han full seat in this life.

However, it doesn't matter if there is no Manchu and Han full banquet, Dahua has a more sumptuous feast.

Dahua is the largest country in the world, with more than 200 ethnic groups living in a land area of more than 27 million square kilometers, which is far more than the 56 ethnic groups in China in the previous life.

The Great Hundred Feast is made up of one of the most famous main dishes of these more than 200 ethnic groups.

Because there are many dishes in the Great Hundred Banquet, and it involves the special dishes of various ethnic groups, so if you want to make a Great Hundred Banquet, you need at least hundreds of chefs to do it at the same time.

And the big hundred banquet is also very ancient flowing water banquet characteristics, when eating the big hundred banquet, all the guests are sitting on an artificial river, and every dish in the big hundred banquet will be placed on a wooden boat, the boat slowly down the water, the guests want to eat which dish directly under the chopsticks.

At the same time, the position of the guests is not fixed, and you can always take your own dishes and chopsticks to another table as long as you wish.

In fact, this way of eating existed as early as the Sui and Tang dynasties more than a thousand years ago, but at that time, although the banquet was also eaten with the help of flowing water, the position of the guests was fixed.

Dahua's Great Banquet has changed this rule, allowing guests to move freely while eating with the help of flowing water, similar in nature to a Western buffet......

Wrong is the royal family, if ordinary people want to eat a hundred feasts, not to mention whether they have the financial and human resources, few people can have this place to eat alone.

In the imperial garden of the imperial city of Dahua, there is such an area dedicated to eating the Great Hundred Banquet.

A small artificial river no more than half a meter wide shuttles through the Imperial Garden, and there are many bars on both sides of the river, and guests sit behind them, and the dishes can be reached as long as they go down the water.

The place here is big enough, not to mention more than 70 foreign heads of state and hundreds of foreign dignitaries, even if thousands of people come here, they can completely sit here. You must know that this place specially used to eat a hundred banquets was able to take more than 2,000 generals back then.

When the Emperor Hua held a celebration banquet, one or two thousand people often came to participate, and they ate the Great Hundred Banquet here!

The Great Hundred Banquet is very famous, but there are very few people who can really eat it, even those foreign heads of state, there are only a few people who have eaten the Great Hundred Banquet. Especially the heads of state of those developed countries in Europe and the United States, they are not even as many as the heads of state of the subject countries of Dahua.

In the imperial dining room in the imperial city, more than 300 chefs from various nationalities are working hard, hundreds of cooks are also busy, and there are hundreds of palace maids, who have been busy serving and passing dishes.

It is precisely because there are so many people who are busy working that they can support the five big banquets at the same time.

There are thousands of people who come to the imperial city to eat the big hundred banquets today, so to ensure the standard of one dish for each person present, it is necessary to hold five big hundred banquets at the same time.

Many foreign heads of state have never eaten like this, sitting by the river, using knives and forks specially prepared for them to fish for vegetables in the small boat in the river, this kind of eating is absolutely something they have never imagined.

However, the taste of these dishes is so good that you can't swallow your tongue, so you can be sure that you will want to take the second bite after the first bite, and you will never be able to hold your mouth after the second bite......

The legendary Dabaiyan is really delicious and fun, which makes these foreign heads of state marvel at Dahua's food and be shocked by Dahua's heritage. Anyway, these foreign heads of state here ask themselves if their country cannot produce such a banquet.

Grandmaster and Fang Zhengying are naturally very interested in this kind of big hundred feast, especially grandmaster, he has never seen a big hundred feast since he came to this world, today not only saw it, but also can eat it with an open belly, where can he eat it happily?

Fang Zhengying has eaten many big banquets before, when she was young, she ate with the emperor's grandfather, later with her uncle who was the emperor, and now she eats with her fiancé...... Anyway, no matter how many times she eats, Fang Zhengying is also very interested in eating the big hundred banquet.

Nonsense, this kind of legendary feast, even the people of the Dahua royal family, may not be able to eat it once a year!

There are too many people attending the Great Hundred Banquet today, and there are more than 70 foreign heads of state, as the emperor of Dahua, His Majesty Mingzong naturally has no time to greet the grandmaster and Fang Zhengying, there are many heavyweight foreign heads of state, and His Majesty Mingzong needs to be accompanied by him personally.

In this case, the grandmaster and Fang Zhengying were also happy, so the two of them held the bowl with chopsticks, ate two bites here, ate two bites there, and talked to the person who greeted them when they were happy.

The Grandmaster had been busy for ten months, and now that it was finally a smooth finish, he naturally wanted to relax and relax, he didn't want to waste his limited time talking to people he didn't know.

The feast lasted until more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and lasted for more than three hours, and all the guests had their full enjoyment.

The grandmaster held his stomach very unproductively, and his stomach almost burst after this meal, but he was still unsatisfied.

Although Fang Zhengying is a little reserved, it is not much better.

It can be seen that the two of them really had a good time eating this time.

The grandmaster whispered to the other party, Zhengying, "When we get married, how about our wedding banquet in the same way? Isn't it a big hundred banquet?" I will tell the second brother and let him prepare now, and when we get married, I don't believe that we can't hold a big hundred banquet." ”

Fang Zhengying said with a smile: "That's a good feeling, if our wedding banquet is a big hundred banquet, maybe I will have to eat again that day...... But even if it's enough to eat, I'm willing!"
