One touch and one silence

"Young Master, can this kind of insect be eaten?"

Nanzhi handed one over enthusiastically, "Would you like to try it? It's delicious. In our hometown, it's a delicacy on the table."

The man took a few steps back in fear, waving his hands repeatedly to refuse.

Nanzhi didn't care and just kept peeling the lobster shell.

Recently, many people in the palace have caught these things and brought them to the gate. She has collected a lot of them. She doesn't believe that she can't lead these people?

Now she shows it to these people in person, so that more people will try it and even like it. Then more people will buy it, and the farmers will earn more.

They saw with their own eyes that Nanzhi put the thing directly into his mouth and looked like he was enjoying it.

There were also some brave people among the onlookers who came over out of curiosity.

“It’s really that delicious!”

Nanzhi politely raised his hand and handed over one.

"You may as well try it, it tastes amazing."

The man looked at Nanzhi eating enthusiastically, took it without hesitation, and started to eat as she did.

Soon a pink shrimp was peeled. He looked ready to die and put the shrimp into his mouth fiercely, as if it was poison.

It was not until I took a light bite with my upper and lower teeth that I was surprised to find that it tasted so good and so delicious.

Nanzhi looked at his pair of sparkling foodie eyes and laughed, "Actually, the shrimp heads are also very tasty. They are delicious when you slurp them."

The man listened to Nanzhi's suggestion, put the shrimp head in his mouth and slurped it. The spicy taste stimulated his taste buds and made him amazed.

Nanzhi raised her eyebrows. Are there people in Jiangnan who can eat spicy food?

"Boss, give me a bowl too, a big one!" The man ordered a bowl directly, sat at Nanzhi's table, and waited happily.

"I didn't expect there is something so delicious in the world. It tastes amazing! The young master really knows how to eat it!"

Nanzhi put the shrimp in her hand into her mouth, with an expression of enjoyment on her face. The man sitting next to her couldn't wait any longer.

"Fortunately, I like to eat it!"

Fatty Chen brought the crayfish, and the man also joined the group eating the crayfish.

The onlookers were drooling at the sight of the two people eating the insects. They looked at them with suspicion, wondering if these insects were really edible?

The man was not satisfied until he finished one bowl and ordered another one.

The onlookers could no longer sit still, and soon all four tables were filled with people.

Those people imitated Nanzhi's way of eating, and the whole scene soon became lively.

Nanzhi finished her bowl and left.

She looked back and saw that the four tables were now packed with people, all sharing the table, and some even sat directly on the floor.

I believe this lobster will be popular tomorrow. Now that summer is approaching, it is the peak season for crayfish.

Nanzhi took Liuyue back upstairs. She thought that she couldn't always rent an inn, and the palace was too troublesome. Suddenly she remembered that the emperor seemed to have built a house for her in Jiangnan.

"Didn't my father say before that he would build a palace for me? How is it going now? When can I, your master, live there?"

"There are too many people in the palace, it's inconvenient to do anything!"

Liu Yue crossed his arms, looked at Nanzhi, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"I thought the prince didn't ask?"

"It's almost done, we've started putting the finishing touches on it, and we'll be able to move in in two months!"

Nanzhi was drinking tea, and when he heard "Yueyue", he instantly spat out the tea in his mouth.

Liu Yue dodged the attack from his master with a quick move.

"Two months has passed very quickly. The palace is newly built. From the moment the prince left Beijing, Jiangnan had already started to build it for the prince."

"It's almost all built. Now it's just some finishing work. There are more than 2,000 people building for the prince at the same time. Otherwise, it wouldn't be built so fast. It will be good if we can move in next year!"

"What the hell?"

"Two thousand people?" Nanzhi was shocked.

Oh my god, are we going to build the Great Wall?

Do we need so many people?

Liu Yue looked at the master's expression and knew what the master was thinking.

"The prince's mansion is of course not something that can be done casually or perfunctorily. It represents the royal status and the prince's face, so it must be carefully maintained."

Nanzhi smiled awkwardly.

Well, she thought it was simple.

There is a difference between ancient times and modern times. Nowadays, many things are replaced by machines.

In ancient times, they were all carved by hand bit by bit.

She understands!

Nanzhi awkwardly changed the subject and stopped asking this stupid question.

"Look, Fatty Chen's bucket of shrimp is almost sold out!"

"Crayfish will become popular in Jiangnan tomorrow, and those poor people will be able to increase their income!"

"I have done a good thing. Not only has this solved the disaster in the farmers' fields, but I have also helped them make some money. The people in Jiangnan can also enjoy delicious food. It can be said that I have killed three birds with one stone!"

"What do you think? Is your prince very smart?" Nanzhi raised his eyebrows at Liuyue with a smile.

"I'm very curious, how did Your Majesty know that this is edible?"

When Nanzhi heard this, she still had a smile on her face and moved her body, which had been sitting for a long time, to cover up her unnaturalness.

"Of course it was the Taoist temple's master who said that? What else do you think?"

Nanzhi complained in her heart, just eat delicious food, why do you have to ask where he learned it? What's so good to ask, it's not cute at all.

Liu Yue chuckled, "This excuse is quite useful!"

Nanzhi: ????

"Liu Yue, this is wrong. You actually doubted me. How do you think I knew this thing was edible?"

Nanzhi was a little flustered at this time. She secretly comforted herself, don't panic, stay calm, as long as she didn't say it, who would know? You can't ask the dead!

Thinking of this, she picked up the tea on the table and took a sip to hide her panic.

Liu Yue looked at his master like this, raised his eyebrows, and said nothing more.

But she knew in her heart that her master had some unknown things. As for what it was, she didn't know.

Who would have thought that this kind of thing could be eaten? You know, the imperial court spent millions of taels of silver every year just to drive these things away.

A few years ago, there was a place where this thing was rampant and all the crops were lost. In the end, the government distributed disaster relief grain.

We spent money to hire a lot of brave young and middle-aged people to catch the so-called crayfish and burn it directly.

Now thinking about it, it was such a waste!

The room suddenly became quiet, and the two stopped talking. Until the number of people outside gradually decreased, and Fatty Chen had sold all the crayfish and was about to close the stall.

Nanzhi stood up and walked down. It was time for them to go back. Her goal for today had been accomplished. She believed that in a few days, everyone in the Jiangnan area would know that this thing was edible.

It will circulate in the market.

Summer!

Is it really exciting?

Nanzhi looked at the moon in the sky. To be honest, the night here gave the illusion of daytime. The moonlight was big, round and very bright, just like daytime.

It looks like summer is really coming!

When Nanzhi returned to the palace, Nanny Qin came over.

"Your Majesty, I saw Shuqi and Zhao Qian together today. You asked people to keep an eye on Zhao Qian last time, and I was afraid he would use Shuqi to do something!"

Nanzhi looked at the cautious Nanny Qin and chuckled, "Don't worry, Nanny, it won't be that serious!"

"correct!"
