Chapter 410: Knowledge (1)
The banquet was very rich, perhaps influenced by Wang Lang. Although the dishes in Xia Kingdom are not as rich and colorful as China in another world, whether it is stir-frying or stewing, after so many years of development, it has brought a unique food culture to the people of Xia Kingdom.
On each individual table are four dishes and one soup, a glazed wine bottle and a bronze wine glass are placed in a corner of the table, and a pair of chopsticks are neatly arranged.
Seeing that it was almost done, Sun Lin said, "You two have come from afar. I won't talk about anything else today. You're welcome to try the delicious food of our Xia Kingdom."
Fang Shaoshi translated Sun Lin's words.
After Newru and the others expressed their gratitude to Sun Lin, they looked at the extremely tempting food in front of them and didn't know how to sip for a moment.
De Habola felt a little unhappy. There was no tableware on the table. Do these humans plan to let them grab it with their hands? Not to mention the question of whether it is rude or not, the steaming food in front of them would not burn a layer of skin if they were grabbed with their hands.
After looking at Newru, he saw that Newru looked at the food in front of him, and looked unsatisfied.
Fang Shaoshi took a sip of wine on his own, and made a drink with satisfaction. He glanced at the two of them. Seeing that they looked at each other in front of each other, he immediately understood.
Take out paper and pen from your arms, write a few words, and hand it to Sun Lin.
After taking the note, Sun Lin glanced at it, and suddenly realized it and said to New Lu and the others: "I am not thinking well, I forgot that you are not used to using chopsticks."
After saying that, the chef asked the chef to bring tableware such as spoons and knife and forks. Although the main tableware in Xia Kingdom is chopsticks, it is easier to use for things like knife and fork when eating some special food than chopsticks.
Seeing that the new tableware was changed, New Lu and his two looked better. The other party expressed their gratitude to Sun Lin.
Nuru took the spoon and carefully scooped a small spoonful of white square food and sniffed it with his nose. It was a smell that he had never smelled before. The wonderful smell made his stomach rumble.
Integrate the food from the spoon into your mouth, your awesome eyes opened instantly.
The white squares were very soft and could be said to melt in their mouths. The unique fragrance filled his taste buds. After eating several spoons in a row, he put down the spoon with an unsatisfactory feeling and said to Sun Lin: "What kind of food is this? I have never experienced such a unique taste."
After Fang Shaoshi finished translating, Sun Lin said: "This thing is called tofu, and you both are satisfied with it."
"Tofu!" murmured to himself, remembering the name.
"It is a blessing for the people of your country to have such delicious food," Nuru sighed.
Sun Lin said disapprovingly: "It's just a little bit of belly, it's not worth mentioning. Come on, let's have a drink."
After saying that, Sun Lin poured himself a glass of wine and raised his glass to signal.
Nuru is naturally familiar with wine. With food at the bottom, he poured himself a glass of wine with great pleasure, raised his glass and signaled it, and drank it all, and the spicy water flowed down his throat, which was indescribable.
"Good wine!" Newru said excitedly.
Fang Shaoshi said: "Although the wine in Xia Kingdom is not as diverse as the old continent, it has a unique taste in the mouth. Especially when paired with these dishes, it is a wonderful combination."
Dehabola glanced at Fang Shaoshi lightly and said in his heart: "This guy really treats himself as a human being. As expected, the beauty Shi Lun is a bunch of bad bones."
Although I thought so in my heart, I couldn't see any strangeness in my expression.
Nuru smiled and said, "You are right. The wine in Xia Kingdom is indeed different from the old continent. Neither Shi Lunjia nor Dekangba's wine is so strong. Perhaps the northernmost countries can compete with this wine."
The banquet was very pleasant. The two sides discussed the customs and cultures of their respective countries, which made both sides very curious. When they heard that there was another powerful race in the east, the human officials present were extremely shocked.
For them, the lower-level officials, they cannot access too many things. These things are no longer a secret at the top of the Xia Kingdom, but for them, it was the first time they heard it, and they were even more shocked by the complex situation in this world.
As an explorer, Newru talked about his experiences outside. Under Fang Shaoshi's quick translation, everyone was fascinated by the listening experience. With the faint sense of wine, they imagined the colorful world outside. They couldn't help but admire the alien race in front of them.
After going through hardships just to see this wonderful world, and even came to the human world with your own risk. Thinking about it from the perspective of others, everyone thought they could not do this.
After the banquet, Newru and Dehabola were arranged to enter the courtyard next to the county government. In the next three days, accompanied by human officials, the two visited Ningyuan County.
This quiet seaside town left a deep impression on the two of them.
During the visit, Nuru did not see any beggars. Even ordinary people with disabilities could find a job and earn money to support themselves. Moreover, from Fang Shaoshi, he found out that the Xia court had a subsidy policy for these disabled people. Although the money was not much, it can be seen from this that the people of Xia were really much happier than De Kangba.
And more importantly, there was no slave class in the Xia Kingdom at all. Even the officials' entourages were arranged by the court, and they received the salary from the court, which was just a relationship between superiors and subordinates.
Three days later, for safety reasons, Sun Lin asked the New Lu and the others to leave some of their entourages in Ningyuan County, and they could only bring fifty entourages to the capital.
Although Decompora was reluctant, Newru agreed without hesitation.
After leaving Ningyuan County, there was a vast wilderness. Xia Country was vast and sparsely populated. Every city gathered far away. If Wang Lang had not attached great importance to the construction of the road since its founding, Xia Country had such a small population, it would have been impossible to control the vast territory of weapons.
Sitting in the deer cart, Nuru took out the animal skin scroll from the wooden box she carried with her and started writing about her experiences along the way with a very strange shape. Everything she experienced in the past few days left a deep impression on it.
In the vast wilderness, occasionally a few wild beasts passed by. They looked at the human team from a distance and disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if they had never appeared.
The beautiful scenery outside the car window made Nurlu feel intoxicated and inspired. He wrote a dinosaur-style poem in the blank space of the animal skin spindle. He closed the spindle and looked at the wilderness in front of him, murmured: "This is such a good place!"
