Chapter 10 The Transformation of the Central Plains in the East
The voyage at sea has been nearly half a month, and almost all meals have seafood, and now Meng Meng has to vomit as long as she smells the smell of fish, so Jun Hanshuang intimately separated a small single room in the big kitchen, so that she can make some meat dishes on land in it with peace of mind.

In ancient times, there was no preservation technology, and there was very little food that could be brought on the boat for months without rotting, and most of it had to be salted to preserve. Taking advantage of the sunny weather, Meng Meng made two cups of left-handed fragrant rock sugar to brew tea on the deck, and set up two benches in the best position with the best view.
"I saw that there were a lot of spices on the ship, so I made a drink, but unfortunately there was no ice, otherwise it would have tasted better." Meng Meng sat unceremoniously on the bench next to him, looking at the sea in the distance and enjoying the sun.
"Well, it's good, but the taste is a little heavier." Jun Hanshuang took a sip, his eyebrows twitching slightly.
"By the way, where is your ship going?" Meng Meng flipped through a few pages of miscellaneous notes next to him, and put it on his face with interest, "It's not going to be a round-the-world trip, I don't want to be Columbus discovering the New World, and I don't want to learn from Magellanye......"
"Don't worry, this ship is going to Dongying, and it will take about half a month to arrive." Jun Hanshuang didn't ask who Columbus and Magellan were, and the first few times he inadvertently said that he had slipped his mouth, but after she covered it up with strange novels, he was immune to the new words that popped up from time to time.
"Dongying, ah......" Meng Meng repeated meaningfully.
"A hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Jun family were expelled from the Central Plains, and in order to survive, they took refuge in the pirates, and finally took down this small island with the help of their military power. Therefore, the current Dongying can be said to be the world of the Jun family. Jun Han described it succinctly, thinking that she was worried that she would be scared when she went to a strange place.
"It's almost the end of summer when I get there, and it's a pity to wait for the next time the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and it's a pity......" Meng Meng sighed and complained, "Why didn't you kidnap me earlier?" ”
Jun Hanshuang was stunned when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Your matter is purely a coincidence, the purpose of my coming to the Central Plains, the most important thing is trade, otherwise how can a small island country survive?" ”
"That's right, the country also has to operate, and you can't just rely on other people's tribute and taxes to eat." Meng Meng thought so, picked up the book and closed it, and asked with interest, "Are you the prince?" ”
"Poof-" Jun Hanshuang almost choked, coughed violently, straightened his breathing, and then turned his head and replied, "No, I am just the eldest grandson of the emperor, and the crown prince is my father." ”
"That's pretty good, you don't have to go to court every day like the prince, deal with state affairs, be half busy, and you can travel around the world with a monthly routine, and the future is bright." Meng Meng generously listed the seventy-two benefits of being the crown prince, and Jun Hanshuang basically couldn't interject during the whole process, so he could only listen blankly and nodded.
In fact, this route between the Central Plains and Dongying, the fleet has traveled countless times, and almost all weather conditions can be controlled very well, coupled with the bandit background of the Jun family, so basically no one dares to provoke it. Those legendary storms, pirates, tornadoes, etc., not even a shadow can be seen, and the endless sea is so calm that it is boring.
As the saying goes, what is it to think about it warmly, but Meng Meng is boring to think about it...... Si Mei man!
Jun Hanshuang is very handsome, especially when he faces the sea and shows a mysterious smile, he is more like a sunny warm man, and he is very good at chatting, not to mention human geography, even the historical astrolabe is also at his fingertips, Meng Meng almost thought that he was not the emperor's eldest grandson, but a god stick walking the rivers and lakes.
Before on the way, in order to pass the time, she and Jun Hanshuang would also play Go, the chess pieces and chessboard were made of magnets, even if the hull of the boat shook, it was very firm, but unfortunately she was a stinky chess basket, and she was used to playing tricks, Jun Hanshuang slowly stopped playing chess with her.
But once she made some new flavors of food, Jun Hanshuang was willing to play a game of backgammon.
After sailing at sea for nearly a month, everyone likes her very much, because she can cook some special food, the fat chef Luo also specially built a stove to bake pizza, the pesto is made of basil leaves, nuts, garlic, add an appropriate amount of seasoning, you can pour it on the cake and bake, the taste is fresh and aftertaste.
"The ship will dock in two days." Jun Hanshuang quietly appeared beside Meng Meng, almost scared her to drop the dim sum into the sea, "We will pass through Osaka, Yamato, and then take a boat from the Uji River to Heiankyo, if you want to go halfway, you can also tell me, and after dealing with the matter of this trip, I will take you to play." ”
Please, can you make some noise next time?
"Wow, is there anything delicious along the way?" Meng Meng patted her chest and asked with her eyes shining, in modern times, she would like to eat authentic sushi and soba udon, and the shape of Japanese sweets is also very attractive, and of course, there are not to be missed takoyaki, kaiseki cuisine and sukiyaki!
"There are a lot of them, as long as you like, I'll let them come and make them for you." Jun Han looked at her with a smile.
Meng Meng shook his head: "That's not good, snacks have to be found by yourself to make sense." ”
"That's right." Jun Hanshuang glanced at her, a whim in his heart, reached out and pressed her head, it felt like his brother was bullying his little sister, the atmosphere was warm and kind, "Aren't you afraid of being fat, eating so much?" What did you do this time? He looked at the bowl of pink balls in Meng Meng's hand, and his tone was amused and helpless.
"Osmanthus sugar stuffed rice balls, the stuffing is also osmanthus, do you want a bowl?" Meng Meng said embarrassedly, in fact, she only made one bowl, and Jun Hanshuang wanted to eat it, so he could only take her bowl.
"Forget it, you hurry up and eat, pack your bags after eating, and get ready to get off the boat." Jun Hanshuang shook his head with a smile, and walked away after a few words, thinking that the ship was ready to dock, and he also had a lot to do.
Sure enough, as Jun Hanshuang expected, on the third day of the voyage, they saw the oasis, and after the ship docked, they exchanged customs clearance documents at the port, and they entered Osaka Castle by carriage. The Jun family ruled in Dongying for a hundred years, and the scenery along the way has a very Central Plains feeling, but some century-old streets still maintain a Japanese style, the door curtain is embroidered with heraldic patterns, and men and girls in kimono costumes in Central Plains costumes walk out of the shops, and you can see the landscaping of washing bowls, flowing water stones and lanterns inside.
"They all speak the Central Plains?" Meng Meng was surprised to find this, and couldn't help but pull Jun Hanshuang's sleeves, "Huh? There are so many people in line at that shop, it should be delicious, should we go down? ”
"You want to eat?" Jun Hanshuang lifted the curtain and glanced at the store, slightly surprised, the smile on the corner of his lips loomed, the store is not big, the two-story wooden structure, two gardenia lamps are hung at the door, and a sign is planted next to it, saying that the special cuisine of the day is written, giving people a clean and simple feeling.
"Are you sure you want to eat it?" He laughed treacherously.
Meng Meng looked creepy, but still nodded.
"Okay, let's go down." Before she finished speaking, Jun Hanshuang pulled her out of the carriage and walked straight into the small shop that was overcrowded.
The shopkeeper seemed to recognize him, and hurriedly asked people to clear out a private seat, Meng Meng looked at the people still lining up outside the window, and couldn't help sighing, from now to ancient times, brushing your face is still the most useful.
Don't you see that Sun Honglei, the king of Yan who has an extreme challenge, brushed two copies of KFC on his face? Gu Youjun Han brushed his face with both sides...... Brushed up on two servings of azuki bean rice cake soup?
