Unlike the Europeans of the Old World, the Meydenor people were also meat-based, but unlike the Europeans, they ate meat because they lived in the ocean.

After the hatred of the enemy, the hatred is investigated, and the cold feelings are made by the trouble

For well-known reasons, it is basically impossible to grow food crops in the sea, firstly, because the space of the sea city is so compact that there is not enough soil to grow crops; The second Medeno sea city was mainly assembled with a large number of ships, and large iron ribs were laid on the surface to lay wooden planks, and then the sea city was built on wooden planks. Such a city can carry not many people, but also lack sufficient self-sufficiency, the required resources can only be transported from nearby cities by transport ships, whether it is grain or meat, in the carrying tonnage of a conversion price is actually almost the same, not to mention that fresh vegetables will spoil directly in a day; This is also the third reason why crops cannot be grown in the sea, the severe shortage of fresh water, such a high-priced tonnage of goods also includes the water necessary for life, and the use of fresh water from the precious carrying tonnage to water the crops is definitely something that can drive all Medenor people crazy. For this reason, even if the food crops are economical, they are not as convenient as meat food, at least they can be disembarked before they are slaughtered, and the waste after slaughter can be thrown directly into the sea to attract fish, directly fishing or fish to provide food for the residents of Haicheng.

Although the food they eat is mainly meat, but all human beings, the thirst for food and vegetables is always very strong, especially if they eat too much meat, the stomach is not digested, it is easy to cause various diseases, so their desire for vegetables and food is also very deep. Even because of the lack of fresh water, there are still people in Haicheng who will grow some vegetables on a very small scale, but such vegetables are simply described as extravagant, often a cucumber can be sold for a sapphire or six gold coins, if a melon is more than the size of a fist, it can be sold directly for twelve gold coins. Even the Belwood royal family can't eat this way every day, and even if the Maidno royal family has money, they can't stand such a way of eating gold coins directly.

Now the long table is full of meals, those large plates of lobster, fish, caviar and so on did not attract the attention of the Maidno people, but the cucumbers, watermelons, pineapples and other fruits and vegetables that were originally used as side dishes next to them attracted strong onlookers of the Maidno people, and a large number of members of the mission rushed forward to directly surround the vegetable and fruit table. Unlike them, the patriarchs basically gathered in front of the meat table, scrambling to pick up the meat from the table with chopsticks and tongs, especially in front of the braised pork cauldron, which could not be inserted into the people at all.

It didn't take five minutes for the personnel on both sides to quickly return to their respective tables with their plates, and then began to casually look at the contents of the plates of the people opposite. Everyone was surprised to find that the things that the person on the other side chose were the last things they usually wanted to eat - in front of such a huge farm as Oriental Port, food and vegetables were not a problem at all, even if it was winter now, but Oriental Port was located in the tropics, and the cold here did not play its terrible effect at all. Under Sun Bin's careful guidance, Dongfang Farm can provide at least a few tons of various vegetables every day, which can not only meet the needs of the food supply system of the naturalized people of Dongfang Port, but also the tens of thousands of people of the Ito Army who built the port of Zhancheng. At the beginning of last year, the "hollow lotus seed grass" that used to be mixed with "water spinach" from time to time has now really become the pigweed of the farm, and with the existing grain and vegetable supply capacity of Dongfang Port, there is no need to use these "wild vegetables" to confuse the vegetables.

The only problem with such a saturated supply of vegetables is that there are too many vegetables, so the canteen can't rotate all the vegetable varieties even if the recipes are not the same for a week. The patriarchs originally came from the old time and space of the "meat world", and they often feasted in foreign fast food restaurants such as "Kaifeng Cai", and they had long complained about not being able to eat meat as much as they wanted for a long time. You must know that the livestock that can be eaten at this stage in the port of the East are still being cultivated in the farms, and the first large-scale cultivation will not begin until at least the end of 1630, and if you want to see the production of all kinds of meat products like an assembly line, you must wait until 1631 or 1632 to have hope, before that, you can only be able to manage the meat of fish, and occasionally eat wild boars and other wild beasts hunted in the wild or in the forest. In such an environment, most of the veterans are like the boss of "Party A and Party B", their eyes can glow green at night, and they almost cannibalize people.

The members of the negotiation team on both sides looked at the contents of each other's plates, and couldn't help but snort a little disdainfully, and they all buried their heads in eating them, and they were secretly scolding each other for "unseen dirt buns" in their hearts. Xiao Jing has been stationed in the lumber mill for several months, and although the canteen of the lumber mill has a high supply level, there is also not enough meat supply. At the moment, there were six or seven pieces of braised pork lying on his plate, plus a chicken leg and a boxy piece of ham. He glanced a little embarrassed at the princess sitting opposite, and Jacqueline opposite was lying on the plate at the moment with a round tomato, three slices of watermelon, a cut melon, and two cucumbers.

After the distant hatred of the ship was pointed out by the moon sail enemy

In the face of so many vegetables and fruits, the princess didn't care about the ladylike demeanor at all, but at this time she looked down at the tomato, not knowing how to eat. She pressed the round roll gently, and felt that it was soft inside, not like the apples she had touched before**, and intuitively it seemed to be full of juice. She gently picked up the tomato and sniffed it, it didn't seem to have any special taste, but the red "fruit" was really not small, and she was too embarrassed to bite it directly, so she carefully put the tomato to her mouth and took a bite gently.

It didn't matter if the tomato was filled with red slurry, but when it was bitten into a small bite, the slurry immediately leaked out from here, squirting straight out, and with a pop, a small piece of tomato juice was splashed near the chest of the princess's yellow dress.

Jacqueline was startled by the squirting juice, and quickly looked down to see that the juice near her chest was still flowing downward. She hurriedly looked up at the place where the maid was before, but the two maids she brought had already run to the dining table with a plate to get fruits and vegetables, and she didn't see that her master's clothes were splashed with juice at the moment. She didn't bring a handkerchief with her, she only had a sandalwood folding fan in her hand, and she didn't dare to brush it when she raised her hand, for fear of brushing a large piece, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

Xiao Jing saw the whole process, he laughed secretly in his heart, but he didn't laugh out loud, and he held it back for a long time. Seeing Jacqueline's overwhelmed appearance at the moment, he quickly picked up a hot towel from the table and handed it over. Jacqueline hurriedly put the folding fan on the table and took the towel, but looked at Xiao Jing with some hesitation.

Xiao Jing knew that she was afraid that such juice would have a dyeing effect, for fear that the towel would be a bigger piece when wiped on the towel, so she hurriedly whispered, "This is tomato juice, which will not leave marks on the clothes, and can be wiped off directly." Seeing that Jacqueline was still a little hesitant, he simply picked up the tomato from the princess's plate, squeezed a small piece on his cuff, and wiped it off with the hot towel next to the senator sitting next to him, "Look, it really won't leave a trace." ”

"You want to help her wipe herself, and you have to chirp here, how troublesome is it?" A discordant voice suddenly sounded next to him, causing all the elders to laugh quietly and maliciously. Xiao Jing was a little annoyed, you must know that he likes to watch Audrey Hepburn's movies very much in the old world, since he really saw Audrey Hepburn in this time and space just now, he was a little moved, even when he was choosing a meal in front of the dining table, his eyes wandered on the back of Princess Miaoman from time to time. Even if he was a member of the executive committee, Xiao Jing, who was shouted out of his careful thinking, was still quite annoyed, and couldn't help but turn his head to look over, but found that Gu Qingqian, who was sitting next to him before, didn't know when he was gone, and now it was Hong Jie who was sitting. Hong Jie was holding a knife and a fork in one hand at the moment, two pieces of cutlery poking chicken thighs and braised pork, eating non-stop like an assembly line in his mouth, and he didn't have the heart to pay attention to Xiao Jing's "angry gaze" at all.

"Don't just look at me, eat it quickly, otherwise there will be no braised pork later." Hong Jie muttered as he chewed the food in his mouth with a face full of enjoyment. Unexpectedly, a palm suddenly stretched out next to him and slapped him on the back of the head with a "snap". "Braised pork can't stop your mouth! Hurry up and eat! ”

This time it was Xiao Jing's turn to laugh, it turned out that Tang Shuai walked behind Hong Jie at some point, "You are so willing to scoop, you scoop up more than a dozen pieces in one spoonful, and talk while eating, beware of choking!" ”

Hong Jie smiled back a little embarrassedly, wiped the oil flowing from his mouth, and then wiped it on the tablecloth, "It's delicious, it's interesting to eat like this!" As he spoke, he raised the wine glass on the table and shook it at the opposite side, and then took several sips of it.

Jacqueline couldn't help but hide her mouth and snicker when she saw the old man opposite, and that smile made Xiao Jing almost drop his eyeballs. She saw Hong Jie holding a transparent wine glass to drink, so she also looked at the wine glass in her hand, and was immediately attracted by the workmanship of this wine glass. All the wine glasses on this table are goblets made of glass, although the glass products produced by the glass industry in Dongfanggang still cannot completely remove the impurities in the glass, but their transparency has far exceeded all similar products in this time and space. The princess carefully picked up the transparent goblet, she had never seen this kind of product before, the glass in Haicheng was a more scarce existence of porcelain, and the glass far porcelain was more easily damaged. The glass contained half a cup of translucent pale yellow liquid, the liquid seemed to have bubbles bubbling out, she gently put the cup in front of her nose and sniffed it gently, the taste was slightly sweet, and she took a sip gently, it turned out to be a sweet taste, and there seemed to be bubbles in it stimulating the tip of the tongue, which felt very good.

"Salt soda!" Xiao Jing hurriedly explained to her that this is the welfare product of Dongfang Port, and due to the commissioning of the chemical plant, baking soda has gradually become a product that can be produced, and the supply of salt soda has risen in a straight line. In the past, it could only be provided to iron and steel enterprises or hot jobs, but now it can also be provided to welfare stores all over the Oriental Port, and the salt soda that "flies into the homes of ordinary people" can now appear in the cabinets of naturalized people in every household, and can be opened to drink a bottle at any time, becoming a bulk consumer product in the Oriental Port City.

"Your Royal Highness, this thing is delicious!" The princess had just taken a few sips of salt soda, when she suddenly heard someone talking to her, and turned her head to see that it was her maid, who was holding a large plate with a large plate of "vegetable and fruit salad". Jacqueline carefully spooned out some salad and took a small bite, immediately struck by the deliciousness of this seemingly purely perfunctory mixture of vegetables and fruits. "It tastes so good!" "Yes! Your Highness the Princess! Several members of the mission next to him also agreed, "What makes these so delicious?" ”

"Salad dressing!" Hong Jie removed a piece of chicken leg nonchalantly and said absentmindedly. Someone on the other side immediately asked, "What is the salad dressing?" ”

"Salad dressing is ......," he didn't have time to say before he could say it, and he was gagged by a piece of chicken leg stuffed by Gu Qingqian who came out of nowhere. Salad dressings were invented in the 18th century in the Old World and are made from vegetable oil, egg yolks and vinegar, with seasonings and spices. This thing has not been invented in this time and space, Gu Qingqian is afraid that Hong Jie, this guy, will not hide his big mouth and directly tell the formula, and then this thing will not be able to sell for a price. And just now Gu Qingqian specially swam around the banquet several times, and she has already paid special attention to it, almost all the Maidno people at the table are grabbing vegetables and fruits, these things are almost the most worthless in Dongfang Port, if they can be made into canned fruits and vegetables and sold to the Maidno people, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

Almost immediately, she began to think about the types of goods she was going to sell to the Medenor people next, but the most important thing at the moment was to finish the meal first. She slapped her face lightly twice, "Thank you for coming to our banquet, in order to show our welcome to all our friends, we have prepared a song and dance, I hope you enjoy it." As he spoke, the door of the restaurant opened, and more than a dozen richly dressed men and women walked in.
