Chapter 9 Gastronomy
Li Zhe copied the Legend of the Condor Heroes, of course, not in full, although he is now basically sure that he does have the ability to never forget, and can completely copy the original word for word.
However, considering the situation of the Song Dynasty in this life, the Meng Yuan did not dominate the world, and the Song Dynasty did not perish, and the Meng Yuan and the Great Song Dynasty still confronted each other across the river on the mainland until now. Li Zhe's version of the Legend of the Condor Heroes cannot be written like in the original.
First of all, the Song Dynasty in this life is a feud against the Mongols, and the Song Dynasty in this life has not experienced the destruction of the country, so the hatred of the Meng Yuan is more pure, there is no fear, there is no regret that the loser once had, and even later, after the Song Dynasty gradually turned from weak to strong in the confrontation between the two countries, the Northern Yuan of the Mongolian nation was even more utterly contemptuous.
This can be seen from the ethnic policy of the Great Song Dynasty today, as long as the pure Song people enjoy absolute privileges in this dynasty, and there is an essential difference between them and the countless foreign races conquered by the vast overseas territories.
The internal situation of the Song Dynasty in this era was similar to that of the Tang Dynasty, which was absolutely confident, open, and opened the door widely, accepting the best of the foreign races to work for the dynasty, but unlike the Tang Dynasty, the dynasty did not completely eliminate ethnic barriers in the society, but intensified the status of the native Song people and gave them various privileges.
Such a national policy greatly enhanced the cohesion of the Song people and ensured the stability of the small court of Wuzong during that difficult period when the Great Song Dynasty was exiled overseas, and later, it slowly evolved into the ancestral system of the Song Dynasty.
The Song Dynasty at this time was a fully multi-ethnic country, not to mention anything else, just to say that on this Tianzhu Continent, the native natives were far more numerous than the Song people. The strength of the Song people made those overseas aliens often need to work several times more than dozens of times more than the Song people in order to obtain better treatment comparable to the Song people.
Let's just say that most of the servants in Li Zhe's family are also civilized natives, where would the Song people who really have roots follow to do such a thing that disgraces their ancestors. The concept of these years is like this, the Song people are born noble, and in this Great Song Dynasty, the real Song people will not do cheap labor even if they are cornered and forced to fall into the grass.
However, Tianzhu Continent did not lead to instability under such a policy, and it is the most stable and wealthy of the three overseas feudatories, which can only be said to be due to the strange local religion of Tianzhu and the peculiar national character of the Tianzhu people. Therefore, the Anwang Domain, which is based in Tianzhu Continent, is the most powerful of the three overseas kings.
In this social background, the description of Guo Jing's life in the desert in the north in the original book is completely different. In the book, Li Zhe must make the Mongols, especially Temujin, more black in the text, rather than highlighting their heroic side.
It must be known that Temujin was a hero of national integration in another life, and it can be seen in the original work of Mr. Jin Yong that there is a vague feeling that Mongolia is seen as his own people. That's because the Mongols have basically integrated to some extent in later generations, and are counted as members of the Chinese family, not outsiders.
In this life, the Mongols were the absolute enemies of the Song Dynasty, and they were the long-standing enemies of hundreds of years of war. This is the political correctness of this life, this is the hatred of the country and the family, and Li Zhe must not lose his position in this book.
After determining the policy, Li Zhe first copied the first few chapters of the Condor Shooting one by one, although it was a quill pen, but Li Zhe also copied and wrote very quickly, and when the lights were on, it was time to finish eating, Li Zhe had already copied and written nearly 20,000 words.
Stopping the pen, shaking his sore wrist, and looking at the dense manuscript he copied, Li Zhe not only missed the convenience of computers, keyboards and printers in another world, but this thought was only fleeting, since he had arrived here, he couldn't complain.
Li Zhe didn't believe it in his heart, even in this world, with the benefits of the traverser, he Li Zhe would not be able to make a name for himself.
Secretly ruthless in his heart, Li Zhe got up, packed up the manuscript, and shouted,
"Hu Shi!"
"In!"
Hu Shi, who had been waiting, hurriedly replied.
Li Zhe nodded,
"Yes! The order goes down and the meal is ready! ”
"Yes!"
Hu Shi, the dog-legged man, replied with a hunched waist, and then went out a few steps and shouted:
"Hey! The old man ordered, open the meal! ”
With Hu Shi's elongated high-pitched tail note, it suddenly clanged, and the people in the entire courtyard were busy with it...... As the head of the family, the forty or fifty people in the entire courtyard are all serving him, and if he doesn't talk about cooking, how can the people dare to be self-conscious.
The main dish of dinner is seafood, which is served on plates.
A plate of braised fish fillet, a plate of fried shrimp in sauce, a plate of sea cucumber, a plate of steamed grouper, and finally a sour, spicy and fragrant mullet roe soup.
Fish fillet is the best sea fish just landed on the harbor, shrimp is the local specialty of the Indian Ocean, Indian Ocean blue lobster, sea cucumber, grouper are the best seafood, Li Zhe in the previous life although the social productivity is developed, but in the food has never been so luxurious, can be their own such a table of seafood so nonsense to eat seafood.
The huge adult arm-like lobster tastes very chewy, and the fish fillet, the Indian Ocean is also one of the best tuna fishing areas in the world in the modern world, Li Zhe's personal chef made this ancient version of the fish fillet, also known as Yusheng, is even more fresh and fragrant, melts in the mouth, and tastes very sweet.
Li Zhe lives in this Mengzhou city, and the seafood is always inexhaustible, and there are hundreds of seagoing ships in the ports outside Mengzhou City, and tens of millions of tons of fish are fished out from the Indian Ocean every day for the Song gluttons in Mengzhou City to eat. Therefore, foodies living in this era are definitely the happiest.
The cooking skills of this era have also developed to a very advanced stage, and the things that should not have existed in this era in the previous life have all been developed, and the chili peppers of the heavenly world, cumin, spices and peppercorns from Southeast Asia, have all entered the cooking recipes of the Song people.
The seafood of this era is definitely full of praise, not to worry about all kinds of pollution in later generations, all the ingredients are pure natural high-end ingredients, the chef invited at home is to inherit several generations of special family craftsmanship, the craftsmanship is wonderful, the braised sea cucumber on the plate, the taste is wonderful, a big bite into the mouth, the taste, so delicious that it can't stop at all.
Li Zhe was feasting on himself, and when he saw Hu Shi and the foreman standing behind him waiting to serve, he felt a little awkward in his heart.
"Huh?"
"Sit down together and let the kitchen bring you one."
Li Zhe stretched out his chopsticks to greet Hu Shi,
"Huh? Don't dare to be officials! Hu Shi hurriedly waved his hand again and again.
As a subordinate, there is no rule of eating with the master. Li Zhe himself didn't care, but Hu Shi, as a subordinate, didn't dare to exceed his duty.
Judging from this detail, there is still a long way to go before Li Zhe truly adapts to this era!
