"Tom Yum hot pot?"
"Monopoly chess?"
Zhen Youqian listened in the clouds.
He knew that after the hot pot was spread to Dongyue from the Tang Dynasty, Dongyue was located in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was usually humid, and the hot pot with chili peppers was actually quite popular.
It's just that at this time, chili peppers are still a luxury seasoning, that is, Dongyue is rich, and there are not many civilians who can eat it.
Of course, Zhen Youqian is not among them, and he also eats a hot pot every once in a while in Dongyue.
On the contrary, after coming to Nanyang, there is no condiment like chili pepper here, and the trade route with the Central Plains has also been restored, so Zhen Youqian really hasn't eaten hot pot for a while.
I just don't know what the words Tom Yum Gong are added to the front of this hot pot??????????????? What do you mean?
Tang Ping pointed to the hot pot served and said: "This tom yum is the meaning of sour and spicy, this gong is the meaning of shrimp, in fact, it is hot and sour shrimp soup hot pot, which is our dialect there." ”
You must know that Tang Ping's tone is always weird when he talks to Zhen Youqian, so he said that it was a dialect, and Zhen Youqian didn't find it strange.
watched Tang Ping's men work for a while, and soon the sour, spicy and fragrant smell floated out along the wind on the sea.
"Well, it tastes good!" Looking at the reddened soup base, Zhen Youqian snorted and said with satisfaction.
Then I took a peeled shrimp with chopsticks and put it in the pot, and watched the shrimp visibly turn from transparent to red, and directly took it out and put it in my mouth.
Zhen Youqian, who was already looking forward to it, didn't expect this taste to exceed his imagination.
The shrimp meat is Q bomb, with the unique sweetness of seafood, and the sour and spicy taste of the soup base, which makes Zhen Youqian, who has always had an average appetite after going to sea, suddenly feel hungry.
"Good, good, good......" Just praised twice, Zhen Youqian suddenly paused.
This is...... Piquancy?
You must know that there are no chili peppers in the whole Nanyang now, this spicy taste is ripe, this is not the kind of spicy taste of dogwood, but the spicy taste of real chili peppers.
"You put chili peppers in here?" Zhen Youqian asked a little casually.
None of the caravans from the Central Plains to the South Seas appeared in the South Seas, and there is no need to ask to know that it was Tang Ping who blocked this sea area after taking Dongyue. I can't even buy chili peppers at home, how can I get this guy named Jack?
Didn't he collude with Tang Ping?
So the expression on his face didn't change, but he was already suspicious in his heart.
"It's worthy of being a prince, this mouth is amazing." Tang Ping looked unaware, patting his ass as always.
"Actually, in addition to Datang, Tianzhu also has this chili pepper!"
"Tianzhu also has?" Zhen Youqian asked.
"Yes, in fact, a few years ago, didn't Datang also have chili peppers? This thing can't fall from the sky, can it? So the small one thought, I can't say, this thing was imported by Datang from other places. ”
"A few years ago, when I led a small fleet through Tianzhu, I really found out...??????????????? …”
Then Tang Ping made up the story of discovering chili peppers from Tianzhu and then bringing them out.
"That pepper is the holy fruit of the Buddha country of Tianzhu, only a few places are planted, and it is protected layer by layer, ordinary people can't see it, let alone eat it, they can't see it......"
Anyway, Zhen Youqian has never been to Tianzhu, Tang Ping directly put the movie plots of those adventures and treasures that later generations saw on himself, and Zhen Youqian was stunned.
When it comes to chili peppers, it really spread from India in Asia, when Columbus brought it back to Europe, and then spread to India, and then from both sea and land to China.
Tang Ping just advanced these things by a few hundred years, and Zhen Youqian's farthest so-called Nanyang was in Vietnam and Thailand in later generations, and it was still far from India.
Seeing what Tang Ping said, Zhen Youqian directly believed it.
At the end, Tang Ping also added: "If you want to say that this pepper is actually very suitable for planting in our Nanyang, the small one wants to cooperate with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to do a small business, let's grow it ourselves and sell it ourselves?" ”
Zhen Youqian's eyes lit up, and he said that chili peppers are now a luxury, and if they can grow them themselves, wouldn't there be another entry?
Now the president of the Great Wei State, his father looks down on him, and the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee are respectful to him on the surface, but he doesn't know that he is a loser in private.
If you can increase such an input, see what else those people have to say. Zhen Youqian, who was in a good mood, patted Tang Ping's shoulder and said with a laugh: "Okay, good, you are very good, this prince appreciates you, you can do this well, and you will definitely be indispensable to my Great Wei's reward." ”
"Prince Xie!" Tang Ping gave a flattering look to Zhen Youqian, how comfortable it was to shoot Zhen Youqian.
This hot pot was quite satisfied, and after being full, Zhen Youqian half lay on the chair and asked, "What else did you say just now?" ”

"Monopoly chess, come on, bring up the chessboard."
"Forget it, I'm sleepy." Zhen Youqian shook his head with interest, what's there to play chess?
Back then, in order to train him to be a "young man with four haves" who was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Zhen Xiong did not toss him less, so he ??????????????? Now he has a headache when he hears chess.
He had just had a great appetite for himself, and instead of playing chess, it was better to lie down on this deck and sleep.
Tang Ping didn't persuade anymore when he saw it, but just asked someone to bring a huge umbrella and open it, and then insert it in a stone pier.
"This umbrella is good!" Zhen Youqian nodded with satisfaction, and was about to say that he would ask his own people to make two of them when he went back, but Tang Ping said directly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes me and there are quite a few here, and I will send them to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in a while." ”
"Yes, you kid, you're really a good person!" praised him, and Zhen Youqian, who had also drunk some wine, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but I suddenly heard someone whispering something about immortal law.
Zhen Youqian got up and saw Tang Ping and a few of his subordinates playing around not far away.
As soon as he walked over, he was discovered by Tang Ping, and Tang Ping said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was woken up by me?" What a damn thing! ”
Zhen Youqian waved his hand disapprovingly, then pointed to the colorful chessboard and said, "What is this?" ”
"This is the Monopoly chess I told His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"It's ...... Play chess? Zhen Youqian asked a little incredulously.
There were not only dice on the table, but also a lot of copper coins.
Playing chess is a gentleman's elegant art, but now it looks like it's gambling!
