Chapter 256

Xu Xianchun is not stupid. You can figure out what Wang Chengen is doing with your toes. It seems that this errand is not that easy to do. At least, it is not as simple as he imagined when he came.

Riding a horse, we came to the famous Shunfeng Seafood in Shanhaiguan. "Today's meal is not delicious." Xu Xianchun muttered and got off the horse. A waiter next to him took over the reins diligently. A very clean boy in Tsing Yi ran over.

, led Xu Xianchun into SF Seafood.

As soon as he walked in, Xu Xianchun was a little stunned. He was the commander of the Jinyiwei, and he could also be regarded as a senior official of the Jinyiwei. He had eaten at all the famous restaurants in the capital. But the restaurant in front of him still couldn't get enough of him.

The marble floor is as smooth as a mirror, and the pillars are covered with cyan glass. Directly above the hall, there is a huge crystal chandelier. Under the light of twenty-four giant butter candles, the crystal chandelier emits colorful light. It almost makes people shake.

Can't open my eyes!

In the lobby on the first floor, there is only one checkout counter. There are huge leather sofas on both sides. In front of the sofa is a thick glass coffee table with a golden ashtray. The stairs are also made of marble, with a red blanket spread in the middle.

It feels extremely soft when stepped on, giving people an ecstatic feeling.

What surprised Xu Xianchun most was that against the wall was a large row of solid-colored glass aquariums. There were all kinds of seafood in them, and the aquariums were arranged in a staircase. The top aquarium was constantly filled with water, who followed the glass

The tank flows down layer by layer.

There were crabs, Pipi shrimps, and marine fish and shrimps that he couldn't name. There was even a bunch of black people lying in the tank, covered in lumps, and they were squirming. I don't know what they were.

thing.

"Sir! Shunfeng Seafood is mainly Jingying Seafood. You can order whatever you like here." The waiter politely asked Xu Xianchun to order.

"Uh...!" Although Xu Xianchun is a senior officer of Jinyiwei, there are no seafood restaurants in the capital. These days, it is very difficult to transport seafood alive to the capital. You can't eat it in the palace twice a year!

Most of the time, the sea fish eaten in the capital are sent over ice. In winter, it is easier, because the fish is frozen hard on the way. Wherever it is like this, you can still eat live animals.

"My chief soldier said that seafood should be eaten fresh. Eating stale seafood is very harmful to the stomach. Therefore, what we eat in Shanhaiguan is all live seafood. This kind is flying crab. Now at the end of October, it is officially

The time when flying crabs are at their most plump.

This flat fish is called turbot and is difficult to catch in the sea. However, the meat is very tender and very suitable for steaming.

This kind of shrimp is the famous prawn in Liaodong. It only needs to be boiled in water and dipped in some mustard. It is absolutely delicious.

This black thing is sea cucumber. It is difficult to preserve it on the road to Beijing. You usually eat dried sea cucumber in Beijing. We eat live sea cucumber here. This product is very tonic and is definitely a gift for men to nourish their bodies.

This thing is bird shell, which originally grew in the Japanese country. It was later introduced and cultivated by fishermen in southern Liaoning, and now it has grown on a small scale." The boy smiled broadly and stood in front of Xu Xianchun and introduced all kinds of seafood very politely.

Xu Xianchun swallowed, this Li Xiao really knows how to eat. Compared with him, all the officials in the capital have become bumpkins. Glass is so expensive, even if it has become much cheaper in the past two years. His own house is also

Not all of them have been replaced with glass windows. Look, people have started to use glass to make aquariums.

The closest place to the capital is Tianjin Wei. Even if the crabs are landed from there, they will be dead when transported to the capital. I have never eaten crabs that are so alive!

"You kid, what are you doing? You are asked to lead the way, but who is asking you to show off here? Mr. Xu is a person who stomps his feet and trembles in the 49th city of the capital. He has never eaten anything, so you are allowed to show off here? Get out!

"I don't know when, Mao Wenlong came down from upstairs.

He kicked the boy on the butt and the boy rolled away immediately.

"Mr. Xu is just kidding. This servant just likes to show off. There is no reason to only order food after guests have arrived. Don't worry, Mister Xu. You will be able to eat comfortably and satisfactorily on this table in a while. You and Brother Xiao are also old acquaintances.

Now, when we get to Shanhaiguan, the landowner’s friendship, our Brother Xiao will definitely satisfy Mr. Xu.

Please!" Mao Wenlong patted Xu Xianchun on the shoulder, looking disgusting and approachable.

"Uh...! Thank you, Lord Supervisor." Mao Wenlong's current position is the Superintendent of Jiliao, a first-rank official of the Ming Dynasty. Being able to pat Xu Xianchun on the shoulder and talk to him is enough to show that he does not regard Xu Xianchun as an outsider.

The two of them chatted and laughed as they went up to the second floor, and the waiter opened the door of the two thick private rooms. Xu Xianchun's vision was once again shocked, and he could not help but redefine the concept of luxury in his mind.

All the pillars are wrapped in solid wood and inlaid with gold accessories. Judging from the color, they should be gold, not brass.

Damn this day and age, brass is also very expensive, okay?

The hall is full of flowers and plants, and there is even a small artificial bridge flowing over water. After passing the small bridge, there is a pavilion. There is a stone table in the pavilion. Next to the stone table, there are several chairs with backrests.

I have eaten in all the restaurants in Beijing, but I have never eaten in a restaurant like this.

"Hello! Welcome!" A strange cry came from the branches. If you look closely, there is a pure white parrot standing between the branches. The red crest on its head is very beautiful, and its dark eyes are looking up and down.

Xu Xianchun.

"Why are you here?" Seeing Xu Xianchun looking at it, the parrot suddenly asked.

"This bird can talk so much?" Xu Xianchun has seen a lot of talking parrots, maybe he has never seen a parrot that can talk.

"Haha! This parrot is a gift from the Li family. At that time, Brother Xiao only had a mere hundred and ten taels of silver in his pocket...! Haha! It would be better for you to ask Brother Xiao later!" Mao Wenlong seemed to have said the wrong thing and insisted on saying the following words.

The words are swallowed into the stomach.

"You are stupid, what are you asking me?" Just as he was about to get on the bridge, the parrot fluttered its wings and flew up to the branch. He tilted his head and looked at Xu Xianchun below!

"This bird can also curse people?"

"Haha! I was spoiled by Brother Xiao. Brother Xiao's whole family dotes on this bird. As a result, it has become a tyrant in Shanhaiguan and has reached the point where it has done all kinds of evil." Mao Wenlong said bad things about Xiaobai, but he showed his countenance.

He took out a handful of pine nuts from his pocket.

"Idiot! Idiot! You are a big fool!" Xiaobai stood on the treetop, not even looking at the pine nuts in Mao Wenlong's hand. He pulled his neck and yelled loudly.
Chapter completed!
