Time passed slowly, and those Westerners began to prepare to study Chinese books, after all, they would be responsible for translation work in the future. And their best level is that Maupassant, whose Chinese level has reached the eighth level in later generations, which is simply amazing. Of course, Maupassant seems that those classical Chinese books still have a lot of difficulty, because even foreigners of the eighth level of Chinese in later generations want to understand those classical Chinese books. And now they have to look at these classical Chinese books, and then they can translate these books into the language of their motherland, so that they can spread Chinese culture to the West. If something goes wrong with the translation, it's definitely bad luck.

"Adults, now today's snacks are delivered!" A low-ranking eunuch said.

Jingwen immediately asked, "What is today's snack?" ”

"Hehe, it's banana chips from eating every day!" The eunuch said.

Jingwen listened to the banana chips, and then said, "Well, it's really good!" ”

The so-called banana slice is dried with a banana to become a flaky thing. Bananas are a unique fruit in the south in this era, and this banana chip is actually produced in Guangzhou. Guangzhou's Tiantian Diet Branch purchased bananas and then dried them into banana chips before they were shipped to the north. Because of the limited transportation capacity in ancient times, it was impossible for Jingwen to eat fresh bananas, so he could only make banana chips to eat. In later generations, Jingwen was a southerner and liked to eat bananas, but in the Tang Dynasty, he couldn't eat them because of his transportation capacity. When Wang Xuance went to Guangzhou, he also sent people to Guangzhou to open some branches, including bank branches and daily food branches. So now Jingwen can also eat banana chips.

And the reason why Jingwen can eat when he is in office is because these officials also have some snacks to eat every day. And these not only have snacks, but also all kinds of things to eat during the office. You can also order some snacks at any time, and banana chips are also a kind of snack. I have to say that the officials of the Tang Dynasty are really "", and they can ask the imperial chef to make some snacks in the palace at any time. Of course. This is something that only people in the palace can enjoy. And in other big yamen, they all have to order takeout every day, anyway, Jingwen's daily diet will also be delivered, and then the bill will be settled at the end of the month. Of course, the things sold to these yamen are also sold at cost price, and of course Jingwen will not make extra money, otherwise he is really ignorant.

"You go and get some for these foreign friends, since they are here, they should be counted as their share!" Jingwen said.

"Okay!" The eunuch said.

"Quack ......"

These foreigners ate banana chips, apparently crunchy. There was a croaking sound.

"Well, it's delicious!" Maupassant said.

"Old Mo, this is made of a fruit unique to our south. Even in our Tang Dynasty, not many people can eat it, and you have come to the palace to do things, which can be regarded as a blessing! Jingwen said.

There were no great voyages in this era, so these Westerners were rarely able to eat the fruits of the East. In addition, the small production of fruits in ancient times made the vast majority of people unable to eat them, and only officials and rich people could afford to eat them. And now these guys are because they are working in the palace. It's also very good. None of them had ever eaten a banana, so they naturally thought it was very delicious and delicious.

Maupassant began to gulp down the banana slices. Obviously it tastes delicious. It was the first time he had eaten such a delicious fruit, even if he had a certain economic strength in the West, but he had never eaten such a good thing. Maupassant couldn't help but sigh, it was really good to accept government employment in Datang. Not only is the salary high, but also a lot of benefits. And if these banana chips are in the West, don't say if there are any. Even if there were, I am afraid that I would not be able to eat gold without the same weight!

This is not an exaggeration at all, because there are not many such things in the East, let alone transportation to the West for sale. But now Maupassant feels that he can eat as much as he wants, which is simply too refreshing. It's so satisfying.

"Don't worry, don't be in a hurry to eat, you won't be able to eat for lunch!" Jingwen said.

Looking at the ugliness of these Westerners, Jingwen was also very funny, obviously these guys were so embarrassed by a banana slice. If they wait to eat something better, they'll probably have to swallow their tongues, which may not be a joke.

After a busy few hours, it was finally noon. And at noon, according to the process, it is generally necessary to eat and deliver takeaway work meals every day. Of course, this working meal is also given according to the grade of the official, and the more senior the official, the more advanced the working meal. And this kind of hierarchy did not disgust these ancient people, and these ancient people also looked like they agreed, and obviously felt very normal about this situation. If all people were treated the same, it would be abnormal for the ancients.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to eat!" The food delivery man who eats every day shouted.

Soon, some ordinary officials also went to get their meals, and those Westerners who were Maupassant also wanted to queue up to get them.

"Old Mo, you don't have to go over there! You come with me! Jingwen said.

Jingwen took these Maupassant's Westerners to the meals of the seven-rank officials, and then asked those who ate every day to send the working meals corresponding to the seven-rank officials. And Maupassant could clearly see that the food of the seven-rank officials here was obviously much better than that of those petty officials.

The meals of those little officials are obviously cooked together in a big pot, and the dishes are fixed, and they can't be freely chosen. The remnants of those little officials are not enough, they are just one meat, one vegetarian and one soup. But Maupassant could see that even those little officials' meals were only affordable for nobles in the West, but now a small official can also enjoy the treatment of those Western nobles, which makes them extremely envious! So, they just went to the queue too.

But now that they have come to the food of Qipinguan, they all feel completely different. The food of these seven-grade officials is actually many times better than those little officials. Not only are there a lot to choose from, but the dishes are all made separately, and it will not be a hodgepodge like the meals of those little officials. The meals of these seven-grade officials are all buffets of their own free choice, and they can eat whatever they want. As long as you don't waste it, you can choose. What roast chicken, roast duck, roast goose, eat as you like. There are those who fly in the sky, those who walk on the ground, and those who swim in the water.

Maupassant felt that all his haras were dripping, and he was obviously envious! (To be continued!)
