Live streaming life: The ancients begged not to stop

However, animals like crocodiles certainly cannot understand the article, so they have to be driven away by force. However, he also saw from the article that people in later generations actually ate crocodiles.

A very distinctive grilled crocodile kebab.

Although the Tang Dynasty did not have so many spices, he believed that the people of Chaozhou could think of other ways. Now the people were short of oil and meat, and they would definitely be motivated if they could eat meat.

The most important thing is that it was mentioned above that crocodiles can be easily killed with firearms, so he may have developed some firearms workshops in Chaozhou.

The emperor is now busy welcoming the Buddha's bones and probably has no time to take care of such trivial matters.

In this case, let’s hurry to Chaozhou and eliminate this harm to the people as soon as possible.

Qi Cheng had just read a few pages of the book when there was a knock on the door. He went out and saw that it was a colleague who came and said he had brought him the mooncakes distributed by the factory.

After chatting for a while, Qi Cheng went back to the house.

"It's Mid-Autumn Festival, so the factory gave out these few mooncakes." Qi Cheng took a closer look. "There's only a little over a pound in total. They didn't even bother to give out bags of rice."

Qin Shihuang knew about the Mid-Autumn Festival. This festival had existed for a long time and was a festival for worshiping the moon in ancient times. However, there were no mooncakes to eat. After all, wheat had not yet been ground into flour at that time.

"Li Si, have your servants try making mooncakes," Qin Shi Huang ordered. "They look delicious."

"Well... Your Majesty, we can only make a few simple fillings." Li Si replied, "We don't have peanuts, green and red silk, lotus seed paste, etc., so we can only make red bean paste."

Qin Shihuang could only nod helplessly. At this time, he urgently hoped that the fleet that had gone out would come back quickly and bring back the high-yield grains and various things.

Especially peanuts, potatoes and the like, which have many uses in later generations.

Tang Dynasty

Li Shimin looked at the beautifully packaged mooncakes with a smile on his face. After he won the northern expedition against the Turks, a Hu merchant presented him with a kind of Hu cake as tribute. Because that day was the 15th of August, he simply called it mooncake.

I didn't expect it to be passed down.

"Tell the kitchen to prepare more mooncakes. I want to give them to the ministers as a reward."

People in the north during the Ming and Qing dynasties were a little confused. They had been eating mooncakes for so many years, so when did so many fillings appear? Five-nut and sesame mooncakes were common.

Red bean paste and Hami melon are understandable, after all, there are many kinds of melons in later generations.

What does spicy beef mean? Is this the filling in mooncakes? It would be nice to have it with wine.

"Take a closer look! Doesn't it say on it that this is a Cantonese mooncake? It might be a specialty mooncake from the Guangdong and Guangxi regions." Someone said, pointing to the mooncake box.

"Ah? There's spicy beef in Guangdong and Guangxi, so will there be roast goose stuffing?"

"That's not certain."

……

After checking the calendar, Qi Cheng saw that the Mid-Autumn Festival was only two days away. He planned to go directly to the supermarket to buy some things. If he bought them on August 15th, the price might double.

When he went into the supermarket, Qi Cheng found that there were a lot more people than usual, and most of them bought a lot.

After walking around the vegetables and fruits, Qi Cheng came to the place where cooked food was sold. At the stall selling roast chicken, there were many people queuing there.

And some people buy several at a time.

"Can we eat all these?" The people outside the tent were stunned. "There are plenty of chickens in the future, and we can eat them regularly."

"They're for festivals. Haven't I seen people buying mooncakes as gifts? There are Cantonese and Suzhou-style mooncakes, but why aren't there any local ones? Are these the only two kinds of snacks left in later generations?"

Some dim sum chefs in the city widened their eyes. They all thought they were quite skilled and their dim sum was no worse than those of Suzhou style. Why not teach their apprentices more of their skills?
