This summer has left many different memories for many people in Chang'an City, and the spread of ice-making technology has quietly changed many industries.

Diandu De is considered a beneficiary.

"Eunuch Wu, what do you think? I didn't lie to you, right? Dude's salt-baked Dengzhou prawns are a specialty in Chang'an City, right?"

Chao Fang and the eunuch Wu Qi sat together again, tasting the delicious food.

The common language between foodies and foodies is incomprehensible to ordinary people.

For example, Chao Fang comes from a medical family, while Wu Qi is an eunuch who doesn't even know who his parents are. Logically speaking, they have nothing in common.

But when it comes to food, the two of them get along very well.

"Not bad, it's really good. This is the first time I've eaten shrimp in my life. I ate some of Dude's salt-baked Dengzhou prawns, and I feel like I'll never be able to eat other dishes again." Wu Qi smashed it.

Some mouths were very satisfied, "Even though the price is a bit expensive, the smallest shrimp costs thirty-eight cents. After this dish, all the money is gone."

Since the use of saltpeter ice making made it possible to produce ice anytime and anywhere, Li Kuan's first thought was to transport seafood from Dengzhou back to eat in addition to using it to make ice cream and other cold drinks and cool down.

Fresh oysters, prawns, large yellow croaker, tuna, conger eels, and squid made Li Kuan's mouth water when he thought of his days in Dengzhou Prefecture.

Looking back at Chang'an, there are piles of embroidery, and thousands of gates are opened on the top of the mountain. A red concubine riding on a horse laughs, and no one knows that it is lychee.

Lychees are difficult to preserve fruits. Even without ice, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was able to get lychees from Lingnan and bring them back to Chang'an for Concubine Yang to taste.

Now it shouldn’t be difficult to get some seafood back from Dengzhou.

There was seafood to eat in Prince Chu's Mansion, so Li Xueyan naturally knew about it immediately.

After asking again if it could be transported in this way, she immediately asked the shopkeeper of Diandude to follow his example.

In addition to the cabbage banquet, Diandude once again launched a seafood banquet, which completely established its position among the restaurants in Chang'an City.

Even if Wuheju on the opposite side immediately followed up, it still felt like something was missing.

The most important thing is that the chefs at Dian Doude are always the quickest to learn about the new dishes of Prince Chu's Mansion, which leaves a very deep impression on some foodies.

"The pan-fried yellow croaker is also very good. The meat is tender and tender. It is not comparable to salted fish."

Chao Fang was very satisfied and took a piece of yellow croaker meat into his mouth.

"I heard that when His Majesty the King of Chu went to Dengzhou to provide disaster relief, he personally took the fleet out to sea to fish. What he caught back was large yellow croaker, which solved the food crisis in Dengzhou. I used to think that the people in Dengzhou could afford it.

The taste of the large yellow croaker must not be much better, but I didn’t expect it to be so delicious. It’s really unexpected.”

Wu Qi couldn't help but feel a little envious of the people in Dengzhou.

Such a delicious thing, they can actually use it as a meal.

How luxurious is this?

"Well, speaking of which, we can have this seafood feast thanks to His Highness the King of Chu. If he hadn't discovered that saltpeter can be used to make ice, how could the seafood from Dengzhou Prefecture have been sent to Chang'an City?"

Chao Fang has fantasized about eating seafood many times.

But he never imagined that it would be a scene like today.

Especially the large plate of sashimi with ice cubes in the middle of the table, which was a way of eating that he had never thought of before.

Before that, he was satisfied to be able to buy salted fish made from large yellow croaker at the seafood store.

"It's true. The seafood in Dengzhou is really something I couldn't even imagine before."

"Eunuch Wu, I heard in a few days that Diantoude will launch another beef banquet. I'm really looking forward to it."

Regardless of whether it was the Sui, Tang, Song or Ming dynasties, cattle were controlled materials for the Central Plains dynasties.

Many people may see a scene on TV or online:

"Waiter, here's a pound of beef and a jug of fine wine."

In fact, this is misleading. In ancient times, it was not so easy to eat beef, and it was even illegal to eat beef, even if you raised the cow since childhood.

It can be said that the status of cattle in ancient times was no worse than that of cattle in later generations in the Asan Kingdom.

As an important farming material, unless your cattle is too old to walk or is accidentally injured, you can kill the cattle only with the approval of the government.

Therefore, eating beef is definitely something that ordinary people may not have the opportunity to do in their lifetime.

Even people like Chao Fang and Wu Qi have not eaten beef many times.

That is to say, after the Braid Dynasty, the government did not pay much attention to the killing of cows.

"Full cow feast?"

Hearing what Chao Fang said, Wu Qi felt that his saliva was about to flow out again.

"Yes, from Liangzhou. Isn't the cement road open now? There are a large number of tribes around Liangzhou who raise a lot of cattle and sheep. Diandude specially sent people to Liangzhou to purchase beef.

"

As a regular customer of Diandu De, Chao Fang knows a lot.

"Transporting beef from Liangzhou to Chang'an? It's really a good idea."

"Yes. I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Chu also took the lead. Now many nobles from Chang'an City have arranged caravans to go to Liangzhou and Dengzhou for these delicacies."

In later generations, when wealthy people hold a party, the oysters must be flown in from Australia, the steak must be killed by the Japanese just a few hours ago, and the caviar must be sturgeon roe from the Black Sea...
