I am Da Song

Chapter 248 The Power of National ZTE

While waiting for the barbecue, other guards bought various snacks one after another.

Zhao Huan thinks the most delicious is the grilled chicken skin, the chicken skin is roasted golden, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, it tastes juicy and meaty, full of happiness.

There is also a lamb blood sausage that is also very good. It is delicious and fragrant when cut with a knife.

Of course, when these five big and three thick men gather together, roasted kidneys are naturally indispensable.This famous dish is now called waist and kidney offal, Zhao Huan ate three skewers in one go, and planned to replenish the liquid tonight.

Wu Ge brought a pack of spicy chicken feet to eat, that is, spicy chicken feet, wrapped in butter paper.What he ate was not so delicate, the chicken feet bit the bones and meat directly into his mouth, and the chewing was crisp.

The two women were not that interested in meat. Tang Yi bought a pack of orange yuan and a bag of Jinsi party plums. The queen liked sour food and bought a pack of plum ginger, a bag of apricot slices, and a serving of medicinal papaya. There is a dessert called Jiandao Tang Litchi.

Before leaving, Zhao Huan also packed a portion of wild duck meat, a portion of crispy crisps, a portion of pork liver, pork head meat, brain flower, and a portion of pickled lettuce shoots, mustard and spicy melons. Shangshi Bureau prepared dinner for himself tonight.

When Zhao Huan left Zhouqiao, everyone carried large and small packages of delicacies in their hands. Some were packed in exquisite red carved wooden food boxes, some were wrapped in butter paper, and some were served in paper bags.

In Zhao Huan's left hand, he held a pack of butter paper tape, which was full of rows of kebabs, fried crispy meat and sauced duck. He walked leisurely and comfortably on the streets of Tokyo, enjoying the beautiful scenery while eating.

With this prosperous city economy, Zhao Huan would never worry about spending hundreds of taels of silver if he wanted to eat a bowl of wontons in the palace.As long as you go out of the palace from time to time and take a look at this bustling market, you will know whether the Liushang Bureau, which is in charge of food and clothing in the palace, has skyrocketing quotations.

The queen smiled and looked at the emperor who was eating and sightseeing beside her. At this moment, there was no pressure on government affairs, no chill and coldness, and the two were more like ordinary couples traveling together.

The queen said: "The officials seem to be in a good mood? If you like it, you can go out for a stroll often in the future. Even the emperor doesn't need to stay in the palace that is so close every day."

Zhao Huan took a bite of the chicken skin and said with a smile: "It's not just that I'm in a good mood, I'm overjoyed. I always knew that I was far away from the Han and Tang Dynasties, but I didn't have a deep and direct impression before. The country is considered rich. It was not until I walked out of the palace today and saw the people with my own eyes that I realized how rich my dynasty was compared to Qin and Han."

"I remember reading a document. In the Tang Dynasty, even if it was a family of soldiers, it was considered as an improvement in food if a piece of meat was covered with millet and rice every now and then. Pour a spoonful of gravy on it and enjoy the food."

"But in my dynasty, even ordinary people can go to the streets and alleys to buy meat offal and special snacks. In Tokyo, this kind of market can be seen everywhere in the southeast, north, south, and east, and it is bustling with customers every day."

"This is the embodiment of the real prosperity of the whole country, which is far more meaningful than how much tax the country collects."

Zhu Lian responded with a smile: "That's true. The abundance of food in our dynasty is far beyond that of previous dynasties. Only the common people can eat three meals a day, and the food consumed is half more than that in the Han and Tang Dynasties. As for the prosperous economy , the abolition of squares and markets, and the abolition of curfews prove that our economy is active and the supplies are far more than those of the previous generations."

How can Zhao Huan be unhappy about the prosperity of the private economy and the abundance of food?
This is even similar to the situation of the later celestial dynasties.

The main difference with the later generations is that this kind of wealthy commercial economy can be seen everywhere in the later generations. As long as you stand in a community, you can see continuous shops, all kinds of delicacies, and even a surplus of food.

In the Song Dynasty, this kind of rich scene was only limited to a certain area of ​​some prosperous cities.For most people, food is the enjoyment of improving meals, not ordinary materials that can be wasted.

And the relatively backward road infrastructure and slow transportation make the economy regional.For example, the eight regions of Sichuan, Jiangnan, Hedong, and Central Plains are all economic regions with their own systems. Even before Zhao Huan's reform, the currencies were different.

Wu Ge introduced to Zhao Huan: "If we talk about wealth, we still have to push the Huixian Zhengdian in Xinmenli and the Renhe Hotel in the east of the state. There are extravagant customs and ostentation. In every hotel, no one is asked, even if two people For sitting and drinking, the hotel will also set up a set of betting bowls, two sets of plates, five fruit and vegetable plates each, and three or five water vegetable bowls. The price of these utensils alone is nearly 100 taels of silver."

This point is similar to the big hotels of the later generations, as long as they go to the wine table, all kinds of cups, saucers, bowls and spoons are readily available.

Zhao Huan said: "The country is peaceful and the society is developing. Only in this world can we gradually accumulate rich wealth. The country has been stable for 200 years, and the overall stability has accumulated a lot of heritage."

The degree of wealth of a society depends not only on the increment, but also on the stock.In the 200 years since the Great Song Dynasty was established, Tokyo has never seen war in a whole dynasty, which is unmatched even by the later celestial dynasties.

Once the 200-year dynasty is rejuvenated, the wealth accumulated by the people is bound to be amazing.

This is similar to the Song Dynasty, but Midi.Although this country has been at war for 200 years since the founding of the country, there have been almost no large-scale wars in the country.

So at the end of World War II, the wealth of this country shocked the heavens.Every family has a car, a TV, a refrigerator, a vacuum cleaner, and a washing machine. The people's living standard is very high.

Of course, the wealth accumulated by society is very important, but the development of production is even more critical.

Although the Celestial Dynasty was still far away from Midi in the 60th year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was already able to look back at the 70th year of the founding of the People's Republic of China. No one could even imagine how far it would develop in the 80th year of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Therefore, development, development is the key to solving all problems.

Zhao Huan said: "I don't want to go to the main store of Huixian. In terms of the wealth and prosperity at the top, there is not much difference between the dynasties and the generations. Only the streets and alleys can show the wealth of a dynasty. After seeing this, we will Not in the inner city anymore, go to Shaotian New District and Taixue to have a look, that is the future of my dynasty and the core driving force for development.”

Taixue represents the civilization and technological level of this era, while the industry and commerce in Shaotian New District represents the most powerful productivity in Song Dynasty.

No matter which point is worthy of Zhao Huan's attention.
