Tianjin, as the night gradually shrouded, the lights were on, the bell rang for getting off work, and suddenly the whole city of Tianjin became extremely noisy.

On the sixth floor of Wanghai Tower, the officials of the Ministry of Rites held a banquet here to welcome the arrival of the envoys of various countries in Nanyang, and also invited the envoys of the Wa Kingdom and the Korean State.

The entire Wanghailou was covered by the Ministry of Rites, but those who could come to the highest building to eat were also the chief and deputy envoys of various countries, such as Godara, the eastern king of Sulu, the queen of the Wa kingdom, Emperor Kashiwahara, and the shogunate ministers Yoon Se Chungsa and Shimazu Tadamasa, as well as the envoy Park Wonjong sent by the Joseon king Yeonsanjun.

"The traffic is busy, and the flow of people is like weaving~"

On the sixth floor, you can overlook the whole of Tianjin through the window, and you can see all the scenery of Tianjin.

At this time, it was the rush hour for getting off work, and every road in Tianjin was very aspect, with dense crowds pouring out from factories, workshops, and construction sites, turning the spacious cement roads into crowded.

Thousands of lights are constantly lit, a large number of glass windows and glass lamps and lanterns, everywhere is bright, farther Tianjin real estate development of many real estate here, one building after another, all the rooms are lit up when the oil lamp, look very spectacular in the past, the same as splendor.

There are also lively commercial streets, which have not become depressed because of the cold of winter, but have become more lively here, and every shop is brightly lit, so that the commercial streets look as bright as in the daytime, and when you look at the past from the high-rise buildings, it is like a bright long line.

If you look at Tianjin during the day, it gives people a sense of hustle and bustle, then at night, you look at the whole Tianjin from Wanghailou, and you feel as if you are living in a dream world.

Everything is so unreal, there is such a bright and bustling night market in the world, it seems to be even more lively than during the day.

"It's so beautiful~"

"It's worthy of Daming~"

Someone couldn't help but sigh.

In the past, I always listened to how the businessmen of the Ming Dynasty boasted about how prosperous their Tianjin of the Ming Dynasty was, and sometimes I always felt that the Ming people were bragging.

But now when I saw it with my own eyes, everyone immediately understood that this was not the Ming people bragging, on the contrary, at this moment, everyone felt that the Ming people were still relatively modest, and it was difficult for them to find some words to describe the Tianjin in front of them.

"The incomparably strong Da Ming~"

Emperor Hou Kashiwahara firmly remembered this scene in front of him, and at this moment he could be regarded as having an intuitive feeling for the Ming Dynasty, and compared with the Ming Dynasty, the Wa Kingdom was still a primitive tribe.

Even Kyoto, the most prosperous city in the Japanese Kingdom, is less than one-ten-thousandth of that of Tianjin in the Ming Dynasty, and this is just one city in the Ming Dynasty.

"Everyone~Please take a seat~Please take a seat~"

Fu Han, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of the reception, couldn't help but smile when he looked at these people with a look of dirt buns.

Almost everyone who comes to Tianjin for the first time will be deeply shocked by the prosperity of Tianjin, which has become the most prosperous place in the entire Ming Dynasty, even if it is the capital, because of many restrictions, it is far less prosperous than Tianjin.

On the side of the Ministry of Rites, it is hot pot that is used to entertain these missions.

That's right, it's hot pot.

Since the hot pot was invented by Liu Jin, it quickly became popular throughout the Beijing and Tianjin regions, and soon spread throughout the Ming Dynasty.

In winter, while watching the cold wind howling outside, eating hot pot in the room has almost become the favorite thing of the old and young masters in the Beijing-Tianjin area.

From the princes and nobles, to the ordinary people, they all fell in love with hot pot out of control.

Godara, Emperor Go-Kashiwahara, Yoon Se Chung-shya, Park Won-jong and others moved in one after another, looking at the boiling cauldron in front of them, which put some fresh things such as lamb bones, tomatoes, corn, etc., and next to each of them were put on a plate, which contained oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, chili, shallots, sesame paste, peanut butter and so on.

"Da Ming used these things to entertain us?"

Yin Shizhongzhen frowned slightly, no matter how you look at it, these things in front of him seem to be impossible.

A pot of clear soup with some bones, tomatoes and corn, eat these things?

And these are the seasonings at a glance, so that everyone can just eat the seasoning?

"Smack~Slap~"

Fu Han, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, clapped his hands lightly, and the staff on the side of Wanghailou also immediately began to push carts in, which were filled with all kinds of fresh ingredients. Thinly sliced lamb and beef, as well as a variety of fresh ingredients that are perfect for hot pot.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is one of the hottest foods in our Ming Dynasty now, called hot pot."

Seeing that everyone was full of doubts, Fu Han also stood up with a smile and introduced it to everyone.

"The way to eat this hot pot is very simple, you only need to put this thin slice of mutton, beef and other ingredients into this hot pot, gently simmer it a few times, and then dip it in your favorite sauce according to your own preferences to taste the ultimate deliciousness."

Fu Han himself demonstrated it first, picked up the mutton slices and put them in the boiling soup and gently soaked them, and as soon as the blood of the meat and mutton disappeared, he immediately sandwiched them out.

Then he was very skilled in mixing his favorite sauce, and then put it in it and dipped it gently, and then tasted it carefully, and suddenly a stream of extreme sweetness poured into the tip of his tongue.

"Everyone, please feel free, these cattle and sheep were all transported from the grassland and slaughtered just now."

When everyone heard Fu Han's words, they also learned it one by one.

"Hmm~"

"Delicious~" for the Academy

"It's so delicious~"

Then, all of a sudden, these people couldn't help but squint their eyes.

All kinds of meat, everyone eats a lot, after all, they are all upper-class people in one country, but this is the first time they have eaten such delicious mutton and beef.

Especially such a unique way to eat, the ultimate deliciousness, coupled with a variety of carefully selected sauces from Wanghailou, a variety of flavors are perfectly blended together, making people taste the most extreme deliciousness.

"It's delicious~"

King Godala couldn't help but sigh while eating.

He has eaten a lot of mutton and beef, but such an extremely delicious taste, without the slightest taste of mutton, the taste buds of the whole person opened, and he couldn't help but keep sandwiching the mutton into the soup pot, and then feasted on it.

"It is worthy of the Ming Dynasty, this delicacy is really unforgettable."

"Delicious~"

"It's really delicious~"

As for Emperor Go-Kashiwahara, who has always been short of food and clothing, he couldn't help but sigh, the emperor of the Wa Kingdom in this era, he couldn't afford to wear the really poor pants, and he almost died.

His father, Emperor Gotogomon, died a few months ago, and he never had the money to hold a decent funeral, and later he was buried with silver from Shimazu Tadamasa next to him.

Emperor Go-Kashiwahara, who has lived a hard life since he was a child, finally experienced the treatment of a monarch after coming to the Ming Dynasty, and now he tastes hot pot, and the whole person can't help but be amazed.

Yoon Se Tadasada and Shimazu Tadamasa, one was a powerful minister of the shogunate, and the other was a local daimyo, both of whom had seen the world and tasted all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas.

But at this moment, when I tasted this hot pot, I couldn't help but nod my head, the food is still good in Daming.

"It is worthy of being the master of the Ming Dynasty, and this delicacy alone is unforgettable."

Park Yuanzong also doesn't care about the image, anyway, everyone is the same.

Especially these envoys from Nanyang, at this time, one by one have forgotten their identities, they are all feasting, some of them are even directly pouring a plate of mutton and beef into it, and then constantly scooping it up, eating sweating profusely.

"Haha, let's eat slowly, don't worry, prepare a lot~"

Fu Han, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, looked at everyone's appearance, and immediately couldn't help laughing.

Barbarians are always barbarians, just eating a little, and they don't even care about their own identity.

But then again, Tianjin's Wanghailou and Beijing's Wangyue Tower are both famous places for food, with carefully selected lamb and beef ingredients and highly trained chefs.

Here in the capital, Emperor Hongzhi often secretly went out to eat.

There is no way, compared to the food outside, the cooks in the palace should be dragged out and chopped, and the food made cannot be eaten at all.

"What's this red one?"

Godara kept experimenting with the spices in front of him, and soon he noticed the red peppers, and after thinking about it, he added a little to his spice bowl.

Then habitually pick up a piece of meat sheep, dip it lightly, and send it to the mouth.

"Ah, it's so spicy~It's so spicy~"

Soon, his whole body couldn't help but scream, it was too spicy.

"Water~Water~"

Godara hurriedly took a few sips of water, and then felt better.

"Haha, I forgot to tell you."

"This thing, called chili, is something that we brought back from the Golden Continent in Daming, it is very spicy, but in the winter, taste this chili, and the whole person's qi and blood can be driven by this spicy, which is conducive to blood circulation and ventilation."

Seeing Godala's appearance, Fu Han couldn't help but laugh and introduced Chili.

When everyone heard this, they immediately went to taste it, and suddenly they couldn't help but shout.

"Haha, chili peppers are a good thing."

"It's very expensive here in Daming, and you may not be used to it at first, but after eating it a few times, you will fall in love with it out of control."

Fu Han looked at everyone's appearance, and immediately laughed happily, and then added some chili peppers to himself and tasted them carefully.

Well, spicy enough, that's the taste.

Everyone saw that Fu Han was eating with relish, and immediately tried it again, but there were still many people who couldn't stand it.

Even if some people can't stand it, they have to pretend to be delicious, and their faces are red, which immediately causes a burst of laughter.
