Chapter 204 206 [You Chang'an]

When you come to Chang'an City, if you don't appreciate the original scenery of Chang'an, it will be in vain.

The city of Chang'an was divided into more than 38 residential areas by 100 streets vertically and horizontally. Each residential area was surrounded by square walls and square gates, just like modern large-scale residential areas.

Walking on the vertical and horizontal main streets, you can see the compacted loess road under your feet, elm trees and locust trees lined up on both sides of the road for shade, and there are deep drainage ditches on both sides of the road, and the walls of each workshop are outside the ditch.

Of course, it’s different from the shops that are now open outside the community. Shops are not allowed on the street. Those who can open the gate on the wall of the square are the homes of princes, nobles, relatives and high-ranking officials above rank three, guarded by soldiers and slaves.

If you want to go shopping, you have to go to the East Market and West Market mentioned in Mulan Ci, which are the two most prosperous business districts in Chang'an City.

Moreover, the stores are not open all day long. If you go there early, you can only watch. Every day at noon, the two cities beat three hundred drums and each store starts to open.

Seven quarters before sunset, the gong is struck three hundred times, the shop is closed and the customers go home, and it is not allowed to open the night show all night.

When you come here, you can see the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

There are silk and satin clothing stores, jewelry stores, and rouge and pollen shops that women like to visit; gentlemen go straight to the horse store, knife and gun store, and saddle and bridle store;

Farmers carry fruits, vegetables, rice and wheat into the market to sell, and then buy iron hoes and pottery bowls; merchants take money tickets to deposit and withdraw from cabinets...

I like to watch the excitement. There are acrobatics, a hundred operas, playing the piano, singing fortune-telling and divination on the street. If you are thirsty and hungry, there are restaurants, restaurants, fruit shops, pancake dumpling shops and other food places.

If you don’t want to eat out, you can go to the fish shop butcher’s shop to buy ingredients and cook for yourself at home. If you are sick, there is a medicine shop. If you are sick, there is a Niluqiu house. If you can’t sleep, there is a coffin shop.

In short, everything from food, clothing, housing, transportation, life, old age, sickness and death to things that mortals can use are here.

Moreover, in modern times, the word "stuff" is used to refer to all things in the world. It probably refers to the East Market and West Market in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty.

Traveling to the scenery of Chang'an can be regarded as gaining insight, and the modern antique cottages are simply incomparable with others.The only pity is that it was a man who accompanied him shopping, not a beautiful woman.

"Let's go to the restaurant and have something to eat."

Yuan Pengfei walked towards a restaurant. There was no menu in the restaurant, but there was a water sign on the counter stating today's special offer.

Fortunately, he didn't have any brains yet, so he put on the score of a hero in Liangshan, and shouted: "Xiao Er, serve five catties of beef and ten bowls of good wine."

If you really dare to do that, you have to let the store type it out.

Because of the law of the Tang Dynasty, "Whoever kills a horse or an ox will only be punished for one year."

The state prohibits the killing of these two large livestock, and of course the eating of beef is even more prohibited.A sentence of five catties of beef, if the store really serves it, a year of hard labor will not be able to escape.

Of course, there are policies and there are countermeasures. Cheng Sanfu, Cheng Guogong's cattle are always accidentally killed, so naturally there is beef to eat.

To ask why, Tang law expressly stipulates that killing one's own cattle and horses for one year, manslaughter, and not sitting.How to prove that it was manslaughter instead of intentional killing depends on whether your emotional intelligence is online or not.

It must be manslaughter to serve a plate of cooked beef to a neighbor...

So don't think about the beef here for the time being, but the most popular mutton in the Tang Dynasty.

Sunburn (zhì) mutton means roast mutton.Pair it with a jar of sake, like summer kebabs with beer.

Mutton noodles and Hubing, he didn't choose either.In fact, just break the Hubing into pieces and cook it with mutton soup. This is the most famous mutton steamed bun.

Yuan Pengfei and his little brother were chatting while drinking sake, when Xiao Er brought out a plate of white and thin things.

He took a closer look and found that most of the food on the plate was in the shape of filaments, and there were also small pieces.The flakes are translucent white, extremely thin and delicate, and there are tender green onions piled up on the side of the plate.There are also seasonings such as mustard, bean drum, Xiaoni, and orange shreds.

Take the white shredded rice with chopsticks, put it into your mouth with green onion and mustard, taste it, it is smooth and cold, fresh and greasy with a sweet taste.

He has never eaten this kind of food before, that is, he has seen it on TV. It is sashimi that is priced as hell.

"Brother Yuan, this cut carp (kuài) is well done, and the fish is fresh enough!" Li Feiying said with a smile.

Yuan Pengfei nodded and gave a good evaluation.Sashimi is very common in the recipes of Tang Dynasty people.

The aristocratic men in the Tang Dynasty generally looked down on cooking skills, but they felt that it was a fashionable style to perform the technique of cutting carp in front of others.

As for the Japanese-style sashimi hyped up by the grandchildren, they are not qualified to show off in front of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

There was a guest at the next table, who was chewing the silk and asked naively, "What kind of fish is this?"

Those who heard this all gouged him out and ignored him.

Yuan Pengfei didn't taste it, he was curious and asked inquiringly, "Feiying, what kind of fish is this?"

"Brother Yuan, this is the fish I just caught today, and I belong to the same family." Li Feiying raised her eyebrows and said cryptically.

Some words cannot be said clearly, plum fish, carp.

You must know that this was during the Li and Tang Dynasties. The government ordered the fasting of fish with the national surname several times. Of course, most people still eat it and catch it, but at least give the government some face, let alone public places.

If you are full of wine and food, go home and rest, isn't that good time just wasted?
On the west side of Dongshi, next to it is Pingkangfang, which is the most famous red-light district in Chang'an City, where the legendary top famous flowers live here.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was no rule that officials were not allowed to prostitute. As for scholars who came to take the imperial examination, visiting confidante in Pingkangfang was simply a semi-official activity.If anyone doesn't go, it's not called clean and self-cleaning, it's called Tulo village spirit. (╥_╥) (huh)
Feel the entertainment venues in ancient times. The red candles are shining in the Qin Lou and Chu Pavilion, singing and dancing are performed, couples come in and out, and people sing softly...

To be more specific, there are several orchids playing musical instruments such as lutes and zithers, and a beautiful Persian dancer is dancing belly dance.

The dance is beyond description. Sometimes it twists its waist and limbs like a snake, and sometimes it swings its chest exaggeratedly. In the exotic music, each hot dance pose ignites unrestrained passion. .

The little brothers all looked up.

Half drunk, Li Feiying put her arms around Hu Ji and hesitated to speak: "Brother Yuan, I..."

Yuan Pengfei smiled knowingly, "Go, experience the exotic atmosphere."

Men, who doesn't understand this aspect!

However, Li Feiying's departure is not bad.The Persian dancer danced more openly, wrapping around him like a beauty snake wrapped around him.

He was almost drunk, and he was bound to have some meat today.

And this is also a part of appreciating the style of the Tang Dynasty!It has to be fully experienced.

PS: Enjoy the scenery of Datang today.
