Villager of Daming

Chapter 1052 There is a huge difference because of their job

Just as Zhu Di was about to leave, the guard came over: "Your Highness, his family is here. An eight or nine-year-old child came with a basket and said he would bring food to his father."

"Ah! Put it here, let's see what kind of food it is?"

Zhu Di instantly thought about whether the other party was lying to him, and he would know just by looking at the food.

The noodles depend on what kind of noodles they are, the rice depends on whether it is aged rice, and which type of pickles they belong to. The taste of pickle lumps soaked in soy sauce is absolutely different from those that have not been soaked.

Not long after, a child came over, wearing cotton clothes. At first glance, they didn’t look new.

There is an extra patch on the knees and elbows. The color of the patch is different from the overall color of the clothes and is lighter.

The child's trouser legs are rolled up, and he wears a pair of thick-soled straw sandals on his feet. This kind of shoes takes a long time to make, and it takes two days to make them slowly.

The child's hair was tied up with a hairpin made of a branch, very casually.

However, the skin color on the child's face is good and rosy, the eyes are big and bright, and the hair is not dry and yellow.

The vegetable seller points to tofu mixed with spring onions, indicating multiple dishes.

The guard handed it over, and then stood halfway in front of Zhu Di, just in case someone saw him!

Then there was a box of egg and cucumber slice soup, with oily flowers floating on it and it was hot.

Naturally, nine taels of beans are exchanged for eighteen taels of tofu, which is two taels per catty.

There is also a box of tofu mixed with green onions and a lot of soy bean paste on top.

Zhu Di took a look and saw a wooden lunch box and a lid, but he didn't move it: "Give it to him and let him take it out to eat."

A large box of rice, which is the staple food, is placed on top and can be eaten when it is slightly cold.

"Your Highness, there is an extra tofu today, which is not usually available."

Generally, one pound of beans yields two pounds and two ounces of tofu. If there are ten pounds and one pound, sixteen ounces will naturally be multiplied by 120%.

"Dad, Mom packed up the bag of beans today and found out nine ounces of old beans. She asked me to exchange one pound and two ounces of tofu with the tofu seller, divide it into three parts, and bring you one."

As expected, it was not Zhu Di who took it. The guard took it, opened it, and then asked Zhu Di to take a look at it.

The vegetable seller took the basket and took something from it.

In exchange, one pound is exchanged for two pounds of tofu, and the extra is counted as the labor cost of making tofu and the money earned.

A small box of garlic eggplant and mustard pickle strips, plus half a salted duck egg.

A box of mushroom stewed chicken, everyone knows hazel mushrooms, with large slices of ginger on top.

"No need to kowtow, let's take a look at the meal." Zhu Di didn't want to cause trouble.

The vegetable seller introduced me, and then I thought I shouldn’t ask King Yan to pick him up directly.

"伢! This is His Highness Prince Yan. Show His Highness the basket. No, you put it on the ground."

It is generally more cost-effective to use old beans, and beans with two cloves and rabbit mouths in exchange for tofu, otherwise the beans can grow and sprout.

"伢, hurry up..."

The child who served the meal explained why there was so much tofu and that he had to exchange it for beans.

In addition to making 20% ​​of the tofu money, tofu sellers can also earn a portion of bean dregs, which can be eaten.

Put the bean dregs and radish together to make meatballs, and mix it with wild vegetables to steam the dumplings. Even if you add a little salt, it is good to mix it with it. There is still a lot of protein and oil in it.

"Not bad, very good!" Zhu Di was satisfied after reading it. At least the vegetable seller's family was in good condition. The team moved forward, and Ling'er gave orders to buy all the vegetables on the bridge.

Your Highness, Prince Yan, came once and everyone knelt down when walking on the bridge. Was your kneeling in vain?

The team always needs to eat. Where to buy food is not just buying it, is it possible to actually grab it?
Beiping City has also been repaired now. It was damaged in the previous war, but not too much. Everyone who should have run away has fled. How can the morale of those left behind be left?
At least it is better than Yangqu County in Zhu Fan's Taiyuan Prefecture. The two places are not on the same level. It should be better than Chang'an City in Zhu Fan's Xi'an Prefecture.

"Fourth brother, I really want to send more things to your third brother's place later, and we will do the same."

Zhu Fang was very afraid that his third brother would cry. Both sides were the former capitals, and no place was more developed than Taiyuan Prefecture. This...

"Second brother, I have this intention." Zhu Di had just seen the situation in Taiyuan Mansion, and when he saw his own Beiping Mansion again, oh my God! It's just so bullying.

"It doesn't matter, we're late there and the place is not good. From now on..." Zhu Fan's eye circles became even redder.

"What's next? I'll send something to Taiyuan Mansion later. Send a telegram from Yingtian Mansion, and then send a hundred sergeants, if you want more."

Ling'er spoke up and found that Beiping Mansion was much more prosperous than Taiyuan Mansion, especially the location of the city.

Look at the expressions on the faces of the people on the roadside, they are different, and then think about the meal they just had, it’s shocking!

It was inconvenient to give extra things to Taiyuan Prefecture before. After all, there is another province called Beiping that I haven’t looked at yet!

Now that he has seen it, Zhu Di can't say anything to benefit Taiyuan Mansion.

People don't take cars, they just walk on foot. It takes a long time to get to the place. The Yuan Dynasty made great repairs.

It takes a long time to walk around the Forbidden City, not to mention that this is not just the Forbidden City, but also includes the outer city.

Of course, the current Peiping is not the Forty-Nine City, which represents the four gates of the Imperial Palace and the nine gates of the outer city.

Today's inner and outer Peiping should be called Forty-one City. The palace city of the imperial palace has four gates, not counting the small gate.

Then there are eleven city gates in the outer circle. Except for the two gates in the north, there are three gates in the other three directions, which adds up to exactly eleven.

There are many shops on both sides of the street. It turns out that it was the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, and the layout was laid out there.

Now that it has been repaired and a lot of equipment has been shipped here by sea, Zhu Di feels that it is better than the one in Xi'an.

"Chief, is our fief..."

Zhu Di was embarrassed. He saw various places selling food, clothes, and ceramics on the street. It felt similar to Nanjing.

At least the people are not begging for food on the streets, and there are no poor people who cannot wear clothes. So far, the shoes on the people's feet, even if they are straw sandals, are still intact.

Straw sandals do not mean they are expensive, but they mean someone in the family has time to help knit them. The more beautiful and sturdy the straw sandals are, the longer they will last.

How could we knit straw sandals so well if we had no food, no energy, and no job?
In addition, everyone's clothes fit well and nothing was torn or repaired, and their living standards are much higher than those in Yangqu County.

The chief was in a happy mood. He had been here once before to help with suggestions and finally saw results.

"Your Highness, Beiyuan has been beaten away, so Taiyuan Prefecture and Xi'an Prefecture are less threatened, but Beiping is different.

Logically speaking, His Highness is too young to come here and become a vassal soon. At that time, when he was granted the title of King of Yan, His Majesty actually did not expect His Highness to stand up quickly.

The Jurchens are the most important. Now put the resources in the Northern Parallel Province, and when needed, the Northern Parallel Province must contribute.

Especially His Highness's Beiping Mansion. When the war broke out, Nanjing had no time to send things, so it all relied on Beiping Mansion to support it.

Your Highness naturally knows what the war is about? Morale and weapons alone are not enough, and if the logistics cannot keep up, they will run out of ammunition and food. "

The head of the village talked hard about the price Beiping Mansion will pay for future events, so as to balance others.
