Chapter 1196 Need to Learn
Inside the detached villa of Diaoyutai Hotel.
Drinking the tea provided in the hotel, Feng Meier patted his stuffed belly, and he couldn't help but sigh the enthusiasm and hospitality of the people in the capital. It's so fucking hospitable.
The six families cooked more than 20 dishes and brought two boxes of beer. Although the taste of this kind of beer is not as good as the barley wine fermented in oak barrels in my own world, it has a bit of wheat flavor, mainly because it is refreshing and refreshing.
In the evening, I had a very satisfying meal. At noon, the food in the restaurant was too salty, so the dinner was much better. Although it is still salty, the taste is suitable.
And those people were too enthusiastic and prepared a lot of meat. Although I say that I am a high-level mage, but not every meal is full of fish and meat. It's not that they can't afford it, but the main reason is that the method of cooking meat in the mage world is relatively simple, mainly roasting.
Barbecue is of course delicious, but if you eat it every day, your body can't stand it, and you will have toothache and nosebleeds.
The various meat dishes tonight were well done. There are braised pork, braised hoof, steamed pork with rice noodles and so on. There are also sweet and sour pork ribs and pot-packed pork. For the first time, Feng Meier knew that meat dishes can also be made into sweet and sour flavors. This kind of meat dishes with some snack flavors is really hard to stop! If you wrap a plate of meat in a pot, you can kill several bottles of beer by yourself.
Of course, fried river prawns are also delicious. I didn’t expect that kind of small shrimps to be so delicious. The small shrimps in my own world are eaten by the poor by the river.
And those veggies, hey, so delicious. I didn’t expect that there are so many ways to eat vegetables. The cold tiger dish is so delicious!
Oops, I can't eat anymore, I can't eat anymore, I'm going to gain a few catties when I eat.
Sitting on the sofa, Feng Meier patted his bulging belly with satisfaction. Although Fu Changqing invited them to a state banquet yesterday, it was a diplomatic occasion after all. Feng Meier is very clear that no matter how delicious the food is on a diplomatic occasion, it is best not to eat all the time and eat until you are full.
If you eat five or six mouthfuls of a dish, you will look like you have never seen the world. Therefore, the meals on diplomatic occasions are not enough to fill the stomach. This standard seems to be almost universal. Still, this kind of home-cooked food doesn’t taste good, and it’s very enjoyable for everyone to eat meat and drink together.
Feng Meier was happily patting her belly on the sofa and making the sound of [pia~pia~pia~]. Master Barton, who was holding a mug of strong tea over there, had just finished picking his teeth. He said, "I'm getting old, and my teeth are really bad. After eating some meat, my teeth are a little clogged. Feng Meier, what did you eat tonight?" Quite a few."
Feng Meier happily patted her stomach [pia~pia~pia~]: "Ah, yes. I'm a little bit full, I'm letting my stomach digest exercise now."
Barton squinted his eyes and watched Von Meer slapping his stomach like a seal: "Is this useful?"
"It should be useful. I heard that it is very popular among female mages to do this now, saying that it can help digestion and reduce fat. Now female mages all lose weight like this." Feng Meier said so based on the rumors he got.
Master Barton shook his head: "You young people know how to mess around." Master Barton also patted his belly as he spoke.
"Feng Meier, how do you feel about visiting an ordinary family in the capital today?"
Facing Master Barton's question, Feng Meier gave a satisfactory answer: "It's delicious."
Master Barton waved his hand lightly, and Feng Meier flew seven or eight meters away.
"Master Barton, I'm about to vomit." Feng Meier rolled too many times in the sky, and almost vomited: "Can you stop making such a sudden attack next time?!"
"That's your lack of vigilance!" Regarding Feng Meier's accusation, the Lord of Evil Spirits said that this was a test for him.
"And you only know to eat when you go to someone else's house!"
Faced with the Lord of Evil Spirit's question, Feng Meier had to answer seriously now. He continued to pat his stomach and said, "Well, actually, I also have some observation experience."
"Tell me."
"First of all, this area is really rich. The houses we visited today belong to the lower class of people in this city. If they were placed in the Immortal City, they would probably be the equivalent of apprentices in taverns and blacksmith shops. I also know the living conditions of humanoids in the Immortal City."
Feng Meier thought about it and said: "Most of them live in dilapidated houses in the west city. The rooms are small and there may be no toilets. The food can only afford black bread and multi-grain bread. They can only eat some boiled beans and bread every day. Maybe some bacon to take home on paydays. Maybe extra butter to spread on bread.”
"In the Immortal City, although this type of people can live and barely support their families, they may not live a decent life. I used to think that these lower-class people in the Immortal City had a bad life, because compared to other As far as the human capital is concerned, the lower classes of the Immortal City are at least fed and clothed. But... hey." Feng Meier sighed.
"I'm afraid of comparison in everything. They are also low-level people in the large courtyard I went to today. But their life is relatively much better than that of the low-level people in our Immortal City. They have electric lights and electrical appliances, and they can watch TV to relieve boredom after work." .There is a refrigerator that cools all day to keep food.”
"Not to mention the fresh meat and vegetables. Even commoners can afford expensive pastries!"
Feng Meier couldn't help sighing when he said this. At the banquet tonight, what shocked him the most was not the meat and vegetables, but the many pastries brought back by Lao Wang's son and daughter-in-law after get off work. Old Capital Napoleon Cake, Old Capital Chestnut Cake, Old Capital Cream Roll and more.
There are similar pastries in the French world, but they are almost exclusively reserved for the upper class nobles. Because making this type of pastry is very difficult and requires a lot of labor. This is not a meat dish. A commoner would not know how to cook meat. At least he can throw it in water and cook it with salt.
But pastry is different, a pile of flour, milk, eggs, and cream, without special learning, it is impossible to turn these things into delicious pastries.
When these pastries appear, and the common people in this world are used to it, they don't feel that eating these things has any special meaning. Von Meyer was well aware of the enormous gulf between the productive forces of the two worlds.
"Although it's only a day, and we only went to a small place, I can already feel the gap between our two worlds." Feng Meier said with his head down.
Master Barton also nodded: "Yes, when will the civilians in our world be like this!"
"So, Master Patton, we should accept Fu Changqing's proposal and use their food seeds!" Feng Meier said eagerly: "This will not only solve our food crisis, but also make the lives of people in the world better." Go further!"
Master Barton shook his head: "No, you're thinking too closely."
"Too close?"
"Yes! Just having food and seeds is not enough. What we need is not only tools, but a deeper level of theoretical and practical learning, just like learning magic. A person who only learns to release a magic cannot be called a mage. Only by figuring out why Only the magician who releases this magic! So we need a group of volunteer overseas students to stay here and learn the advanced culture and technology here." Barton looked at Feng Meier. Feng Meier looked at Barton.
Without needing too many words, Feng Meier nodded lightly: "I'll stay!"
"Okay!" Barton also nodded.
………………
Qin Kuairen felt relaxed after taking a shower in the bathroom of the hotel. Today he was tired after walking around the old alleys with Barton and Feng Meier.
Well, go and ask Master Barton if he wants to go to Guijie Street to experience a night snack in the old capital at night. Tonight, I am too busy working as an interpreter to have enough food.
Qin Kuairen walked into the living room wearing a bathrobe, and saw Master Barton and Master Feng Meier facing each other and admiring each other in the living room.
The two also clapped their stomachs with their hands.
【pia~pia~pia~】The sound echoed in the room.
