Chapter 153: Tasting, Expectation
The matchmaker couldn't help but have a hint of joy on her face, because this was the first fried locust to be sold.
Then Li Shimin ordered a few more signature dishes, and the matchmaker quickly left the private room to order.
Time didn't pass long, and the first dish served was this fried locust ordered by Li Shimin.
Looking at the locusts that were fried into gold, Li Shimin hesitated for a while and then took the lead in moving his chopsticks, those refugees can eat it, can't he still eat it.
It can be said that Li Shimin also has some angry ingredients in his heart, and he ate a fried locust in one bite.
And after Li Shimin took the lead, the three of them also started to do it with a wry smile on their faces.
After a few people ate the first bite, they couldn't help but be stunned, because the taste was really good, and there was a special crispy.
"Are locusts really food?"
After the entrance, Li Shimin clipped another one, but this time his mind was different from before.
Li Shimin and several ministers glanced at each other, as if there was an inexplicable meaning, obviously thinking of the same point.
If the locusts can really be compared to meat, even if they can train an elite army, of course, under normal circumstances, Changsun Wuji and the others will definitely oppose it.
But who made this majesty make a windfall this time, and after the curfew was lifted, there were still many shops in Chang'an that increased taxes.
The reason is that with the opening of the curfew, more and more people come out of Chang'an at night, even if they have to pay more city tax, but they still have a lot of profits.
In such a situation, these shops are naturally opening one after another, and no one will have trouble with money.
Li Shimin is also concerned about the issue of curfew, and in just a few days, he calculated that Chang'an can pay nearly 1,000 yuan more in a month.
This is naturally ecstatic for Li Shimin, who is afraid of poverty, there are tens of thousands more in a year, and this is just the beginning.
And according to his father's idea, he could open a curfew in several prosperous areas, such as Luoyang, although it is not as good as Chang'an, but at least half of it is there.
In this way, the treasury can be increased by at least 100,000 yuan a year, and even Li Shimin cannot ignore it.
With the confidence of money, it is naturally enough, so Li Shimin naturally thought of the Turkic problem again, and naturally wanted to even have an elite army.
This is also the reason why the eldest grandson Wuji and others did not stop it, they didn't know the potential of the city tax before, but now they know it.
Every year, there will be a steady stream of excess taxes into the treasury, which can be regarded as making the eldest grandson Wuji and others equally happy.
It is important to know that at least half of the disputes between the civil and military forces above the court are due to the issue of money, and it can be said that every time they are inextricably contested.
If there is more money, although the disputes may not be reduced, at least it can satisfy both sides.
"Maybe just ask the teacher about this matter."
The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but say loudly, if the locusts have any specific effects, then look at a teacher.
Now these rumors of Chang'an, the eldest grandson Wuji, don't believe it, and they will only believe it if they come out of the teacher's mouth in person.
The eldest grandson Wuji's words were agreed by Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling, who trusted Shu An and did not believe in rumors.
Li Shimin couldn't help but nod on his face, in fact, his thoughts were similar, and he could still trust his father's words.
Moreover, locusts are now all over the suburbs of Chang'an, which is not a rare thing, and the money has always been enough to buy a lot.
After thinking of this, the action of several people eating couldn't help but be much faster, and after settling the money, Li Shimin couldn't help but glance at the matchmaker with deep meaning.
It is estimated that this matchmaker does not know her identity, presumably her father did not tell her.
"I'm Li's father, if I have time, I can let Yaya come to the house to play."
Li Shimin couldn't help but say more, but this sentence made the eldest grandson Wuji and others a little stunned.
This is a pass to enter and exit the palace, I didn't expect that the daughter of the matchmaker would be remembered by this one.
"Thank you, Childe!"
The matchmaker was stunned for a moment, but then said loudly, and there were still some doubts in her words.
Because she didn't know who the son in front of her was, but she also noticed something wrong.
That is, he made a mistake, he thought that this prince was the son and nephew of these important ministers of the court.
Now it doesn't seem to be the case, but this son's identity is not ordinary, and the beautiful father reminds the matchmaker of the little girl who called her uncle Grandpa An's palace.
However, the matchmaker did not ask about the identity of this beautiful woman who is the same age as her daughter, mainly because she will feel an invisible pressure when facing her uncle.
Li Shimin nodded and then turned to leave, even if it was for the sake of his father's face, it was still worth showing his kindness.
.......
In the Shu Mansion, Shu An was a little stunned at this time, because at this time, Li Shimin and his party appeared in front of him without any warning.
Shu An was a little surprised, and Sun Simiao on the side was still a little nervous, after all, the person in front of him was His Majesty today.
Even Sun Simiao can't be calm, although he is a world-famous miracle doctor, but the patriotic thoughts of loyalty to the monarch since ancient times are still influenced.
Fortunately, Li Shimin paid attention to his sub-father at this time, and he didn't care about this Sun Divine Doctor.
This is normal after all, the current Li Shimin is still in his prime, and there is no big problem with the heirs of the harem.
Naturally, I don't care about this miracle doctor, of course, everyone who is not sick thinks like this, and I feel that I will not have to find a miracle doctor one day.
"Father, don't you know if locusts can be compared to meat?"
When he came to Shu An, Li Shimin did not go around in circles, and directly said his problem.
This couldn't help but make Shu An come to his senses, it turned out that Li Shimin thought that he had been to heaven and earth when he saw this costume, otherwise he would not be so anxious.
To know that he had said similar words to the matchmaker, thinking of this, Shu An's smile couldn't help but have a hint of playfulness.
This means that Li Shimin went to order that signature dish, originally because of the history of locusts but there are records of eating raw.
It seems that this time it is much better, but for Li Shimin's question, Shu An is still sure.
After all, in this era, there is little meat, and locusts are quite rich in protein, which can supplement people's lack of nutrition, and they can naturally grow their strength.
"Yes, locusts do."
Under the expectation of Li Shimin and other pairs of eyes, Shu An nodded in the affirmative and replied.
