CHAPTER XXI

"Miss, Shang Gongzi ...... him"

"Zhu'er, didn't I tell you? Don't call me Miss in the future. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" Konka, who was standing by the pond and was teasing the crab with a grass stalk, interrupted her without waiting for Zhu'er to finish speaking.

"But Miss ......"

"You're still calling?"

"But...... But what do I call you? ā€

"Well, then you can call me princess just like them."

"Oh, well, Your Highness Princess." Zhu'er's heart is a little lost, because she grew up with Miss since she was a child, and now Miss has changed her name to Princess, which naturally means that Miss is separated from herself.

"What did you just say about Shang Gongzi?"

"Oh, I want to say that Shang Gongzi and they are already here."

"Huh? Is it already here? Why didn't you say it earlier, you damn girl. Konka turned around and glared at Zhu'er viciously.

"......" Zhu'er said very speechlessly, did you give me a chance to say?

"Shang Gongzi, you're here." Konka said hello to Shang Tao a little embarrassed, and then saw that Shang Tao was still followed by a person, so he bowed to the other party, and then said to Shang Tao: "By the way, Shang Gongzi, what are these in your pond?" ā€

"Oh, this one is a crab, it's delicious." Shang Tao secretly thought in his heart, and sure enough, after Konka heard that he said that Miss was equivalent to a prostitute, he began to instinctively repulse the title of Miss.

"Really?" Konka's two good-looking big eyes suddenly became shiny, needless to say, this little Lori is also a foodie.

"It's true, of course, or we'll eat it this morning, you wait, I'll go find something to catch crabs."

After a while, Shang Tao walked over with a large net bag in one hand and a plastic bucket in the other.

"Miss Kang, what flavor do you like?" Shang Tao asked while fishing for crabs.

"Huh? Any explanation? Konka looked confused.

"If you can eat spicy, I will make you spicy crab, if you like lighter, then I will make boiled crab for you."

"What if I want to try both flavors?" Konka said a little tangled.

"Uh, okay. Let's do both. Sure enough, it was a foodie, and Shang Tao had no choice but to catch a few more.

An hour later, Shang Tao, Kang Jia, and Ye Maoyan sat around the small square table in the hall and ate crabs with a feast.

Konka's eating appearance was very ladylike at the beginning, like a princess, but after tasting the delicious taste of crabs, Konka quickly tore off the lady's disguise, and even didn't use chopsticks, and went straight to catch it.

But then again, you don't need to catch crabs with your hands, and you can't eat them.

"How?" Shang Tao asked Konka, who was sucking his fingers.

"Delicious!" Konka had just finished dealing with a piece of spicy crab, so she hurriedly responded, then grabbed another boiled crab, learned the eating method taught to her by Shang Tao, first lifted off the crab shell, and directly used her slender fingers to deduct the crab roe in the crab shell and eat it, and then broke the crab into two petals, dipped in soy sauce and ate it beautifully.

Shang Tao's eyes couldn't help but glance at Konka's body, Konka was not elegant at all, in Shang Tao's opinion, how to look at it and how to feel cute, revealing a frank and unpretentious.

"Brother Ye, what do you think of the taste?" Shang Tao reluctantly withdrew his gaze, and turned to Ye Maoyan on the other side and asked.

"Well, Brother Shang Xian's cooking skills are really extraordinary, even compared with the top celebrity chefs in the Drunken Immortal Building, I'm afraid it won't be too much."

Shang Tao felt that the meaning of Ye Maoyan's words seemed to be that the taste of the crab itself was not very good, and the only thing worthy of praise was his own cooking skills, so he asked: "Then what does Brother Ye think about the taste of my crab compared to that Haizhou crab?" ā€

"Brother Shang Xian's crab, compared with Haizhou crab, the taste is probably slightly inferior." Ye Maoyan replied.

Ye Maoyan's words are undoubtedly saying that the taste of his live crab is not as good as the dead crab that arrived in Jinling from thousands of miles away, so if they are all live crabs, the gap in taste will be big.

It seems that it is exactly the same as he guessed, Shang Tao has found that the taste is not ordinary from the first time he ate the unknown animal with a single horn on his head in this world, and he has also eaten some other animals in the past few days, even the worst taste of wolf meat is better than pork on the earth.

"Ye Gongzi, you said that Haizhou also has this, uh...... Crab? And it's tastier than this crab? When the foodie Konka heard Ye Maoyan's words, he immediately interjected.

"Yes, Shang Xiandi's crab is indeed worse than Haizhou's crab in terms of taste, but Shang Xiandi's cooking skills make up for the lack of ingredients, so the taste of this spicy crab is still very good, if the crab in Haizhou is cooked by Shang Xiandi, the taste is estimated to be much better."

"Is there a Haizhou crab for sale in Diezhangguan?" Konka immediately asked.

"There are no Haizhou crabs to sell in Diezhang Pass, from Haizhou to Diezhang Pass, a trip is more than 30,000 miles, if you transport Haizhou crabs over, don't sell two hundred taels of silver, Diezhangguan is poor and remote, few people can afford to eat it."

By chatting with Ye Maoyan, Shang Tao has learned that one mile in this world is equal to three hundred steps, and one step is equal to five feet, which is converted into units on the earth, and one mile is equal to 465 meters, which is 35 meters less than one mile on the earth.

According to him, he has been living here for five or six years, and he only goes back once a year during the Chinese New Year, and the rest of the time is basically left in Diezhang Pass to deal with the family business.

Ye Maoyan couldn't bear to let his wife and daughter suffer with him in the poor and remote place of Diezhangguan, so he later simply bought two concubines here, and the older one of them also gave birth to a pair of children for him.

"Brother Ye, is the Haizhou you mentioned by the sea?" Shang Tao asked curiously.

"Exactly."

"Oh, is this Haizhou also the territory of Datang?"

"Yes, Haizhou is the easternmost state of Datang." Ye Maoyan continued to reply.

"Then how far is the distance from the westernmost Diezhang Pass in the Tang Dynasty to the easternmost Haizhou?"

Ye Maoyan silently calculated for a moment, and then said: "If you calculate the straight-line distance, it is about 33,000 miles, and if you calculate the nearest distance, it is almost more than 37,000 miles. ā€

33,000 miles, converted into units on the earth, that is also 15,000 kilometers, you must know that the farthest distance between the east and west of the Chinese country on the earth is only 5,000 kilometers, and the Tang Dynasty of this world, the east-west span is equivalent to three times that of the Chinese country on the earth, which shows how vast the Tang Dynasty in this world is.

In addition, Shang Tao guessed that the diameter of this planet should be much larger than that of the earth, otherwise it would not be able to bind such a large moon as its satellite.
