"Xuan Ba, you must bring me a few sets of this peerless delicacy back to the palace. I want to eat with the queen, concubines, and princesses in the palace!"
After eating to his fullest, Li Shimin half-lyed on the sofa on one side with a satisfied look on his face. He thought of something and had a longing expression on his face.
Everyone poured a dozen bottles of low-alcohol ale into their stomachs. Although everyone had drained the water several times during this period, they still didn't want to move.
Moreover, everyone's brain is also dizzy.
When it comes to speaking, there is no longer so much secretiveness.
"Your Majesty, you must first send an imperial chef to Lijiazhuang to learn from my chef before you can eat it in the palace!"
Li Xuan chuckled.
"That's right, that's right!"
Hearing this, Li Shimin was startled, and then nodded repeatedly.
On the side, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others also looked at Li Xuan expectantly.
"May I ask His Highness Prince Jin if we can..."
"Three princes, don't be anxious!"
Li Xuan smiled lightly and said: "The secret recipe of hot pot will definitely be known to a few people, and the construction of the six hot pot shops in Chang'an has been completed for more than a month and needs to be opened.
Therefore, the three princes not only have to send chefs to my Lijiazhuang to learn hot pot, but they also cannot have only one chef!"
"Thank you, Prince Jin!"
Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others' eyes lit up and they quickly thanked him.
"In addition, since the hot pot restaurant is built by everyone, it also needs chefs from other companies."
"Prince Jin, don't worry about this, I understand!"
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others have long been accustomed to Li Xuan Yulu's temperament and behavior.
"Then, the most important condiment in these hot pots, red pepper, also needs your joint efforts!"
"This is easy!"
"In this way, you can send chefs here tomorrow, and the hot pot restaurants in Chang'an City can open the day after tomorrow!"
Li Xuan nodded and said.
"So fast?"
Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others were all shocked.
“Hot pot itself doesn’t require much skill, you just need to make a fragrant hot pot base!”
Li Xuan nodded slightly.
"Wouldn't it be easier for others to learn from it?"
On the side, Changsun Wuji said worriedly.
"Don't worry, Duke of Qi. Do you know what is the most important thing in the hot pot?" Li Xuan asked.
"What?"
Changsun Wuji asked subconsciously.
"Chili!" Li Xuan.
"chili?"
After hearing this, Changsun Wuji, Li Shimin and others suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly.
"What Xuan Ba said is right! Although chili peppers are spicy, eating them in such cold weather makes people extremely comfortable. And the more I eat, the more I want to eat!"
"As long as we control the chili peppers, we don't have to worry about anyone trying to imitate our hotpot restaurant!"
Li Xuan nodded.
"Exactly this!"
Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others all nodded with confidence.
"It's just that eating too much chili pepper can cause abdominal pain. Please be prepared for this kind of thing!" Li Xuan warned again.
"stomach ache?"
Hearing this, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others were startled again, and quickly looked at Li Xuan closely.
"Will I also have abdominal pain?"
"It's natural!"
Li Xuan glanced at Li Shimin and others strangely, "You guys have eaten so much today, so you will naturally have abdominal pain, but if you go to bed a few times, you'll be fine!
This point needs to be informed to every diner after the hot pot restaurant opens!"
"Xuanba, wouldn't the pepper be poisonous?"
Li Shimin couldn't help but asked worriedly.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Chili peppers are not poisonous. However, if you eat too much of any of them, your body will feel unwell!"
Li Xuan smiled lightly and continued: "Besides, if you eat too much chili pepper, you will suffer from abdominal pain at most!"
"That's good!"
Li Shimin nodded with some relief.
"In this way, the people of the Tang Dynasty have something to eat again!"
Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others on the side also had faces full of joy.
"Only the rich and powerful can eat, the poor families and farmers can't even afford it!"
Li Xuan curled his lips, with some regret in his eyes.
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others could not help but be stunned.
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Xuanba, such exquisite delicacies are so expensive that farmers with poor family backgrounds will naturally not be able to eat them."
"Moreover, now, throughout the Tang Dynasty, the aristocratic families and wealthy households in various states and counties have almost planted sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other crops.
In just two years, all the people of the Tang Dynasty will be able to grow sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other magical things in their homes. At that time, the food tanks in the homes of the people of the Tang Dynasty will have food every day.
There will never be famine.
This can be called the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty!"
Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling nodded repeatedly with silly smiles on their faces. They had never dared to imagine such a prosperous scene before.
Unexpectedly, Li Xuan just sighed helplessly and said softly: "Your Majesty also said it, but it can be called, not the real prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty!"
"There is no famine among the people in the world. Isn't this considered a prosperous age?"
Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others were startled, looked at Li Xuan closely and asked.
"Your Majesty, it really doesn't count!"
Li Xuan said.
"Then Xuanba, tell me, what is the prosperous age?"
Li Shimin was unconvinced.
"Your Majesty, in the prosperous times, the Tang Dynasty was peaceful and there would never be war. Every household in the Tang Dynasty had food to eat, clothes to wear, and solid cement houses to live in. Every year, the family could spend more than ten guan for medical treatment or
Buy delicious food, and the children in every family can go to school from an early age..."
Li Shimin: "..."
Changsun Wuji: "..."
Fang Xuanling: "..."
Du Ruhui: "..."
"Your Majesty, everyone, why are you looking at me like this?" Li Xuan asked with some confusion.
"Xuanba, the kind of fairyland you mentioned can only be achieved by your Lijiazhuang in the whole world. How can it be possible for us, the Tang Dynasty, to be as big as this and achieve such a grand occasion?"
Li Shimin took a deep breath and said slowly.
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others all nodded.
Indeed, although they were also excited and overwhelmed by the scene described by Li Xuan, they knew that such a grand occasion would never be realized.
"But only when it reaches this level can it be called a prosperous age!"
Li Xuan smiled softly and continued: "Your Majesty, I just manage Lijiazhuang, and I have already managed the entire Lijiazhuang to this extent. In a few years, or even more than ten years, every household in Lijiazhuang will be able to save hundreds of dollars.
Children in every household can read the Four Books and Five Classics by heart and be proficient in numbers and arithmetic.
So, can’t the lives of the people of the entire Tang Dynasty be improved?"
“Nature can improve!”
After Li Shimin thought for a moment, he nodded slightly and said. This chapter has been completed!
