Crossing the Datang Restaurant

This is just an appetizer, and the next thing is kippers.The fish is just an ordinary crucian carp, but it is big and fat, and the two fish occupy a large plate, cut into pieces, and put on the plate.In the middle is a blooming yellow rose, with a faint rose-like aroma, cut into beautiful shapes with cucumbers.

Yangzhou is a water town. The specialty here is fish, shrimp and seafood. Most people catch them fresh from lakes and rivers. The length of wild crucian carp is bigger than a hand.

Rong Yushu likes to eat this kind of fish very much. The fish in this store seems to have been specially processed before marinating. Crucian carp has many small spines. It is said to be small thorns, chew a few more times, and the fish bones will become brittle, and the small thorns that do not have that kind of phenomenon will get stuck in your throat or hurt your gums.

The marinated fish is delicious, even after steaming, it is still a little hard, and in some places where the fish is rich, it can even be shredded by hand.

This kind of food should be eaten slowly. If you don't like it, it doesn't matter. One of the remaining cold dishes is crystal elbow.

Just like his name, crystal elbow is crystal clear, and it is also a famous dish in Huaiyang. It is said that it is a dish that tests patience, and it is most in line with the delicate and slow sentiment of Yangzhou people.

Although the raw material is elbow, it is a cold dish. After the elbow is steamed, it is torn into strips and placed in the processed pork skin jelly. After it is cooled with well water, it is cut into pieces. .

Neatly arranged recliningly, with carvings, the appearance alone is a bit pleasing to the eye.

In a small bowl, there is a sauce made of minced ginger, garlic, sesame oil, vinegar, and shrimp oil. It is not oily or greasy, but rather refreshing.

Rong Yushu chewed slowly, carefully tasting the difference between the ancient Huaiyang cuisine and the modern one.

If there is anything interesting, it is that Ah Fu obeyed Rong Yushu's order and kept stuffing things in his mouth.

Ah Fu is big and has a fast mouth. At the beginning, Zhang Jun was a little surprised to see Ah Fu sweeping the autumn wind, but then he reacted and followed Ah Fu to start grabbing food.

Ah Fu stared, this person is really annoying, obviously the young master has said that he can eat all the food on it, yet this person still robs him.So he intensified the movements in his mouth, and for a while at the dinner table you came and went, it was very lively.

Brother Ming looked at the two of them speechlessly, and Rong Yushu felt a little relieved, yes, that's it, Ah Fu continued to eat, it's better to put these things into the mouths of his own family than to make it easier for outsiders.

If you are talking about which one of you is the calmest, it is Tang Guang who chewed slowly and naturally. After eating, he took the handkerchief next to him and wiped his hands, reminding: "There will be food later, save some stomach. "

On the contrary, Rong Yushu patted Ah Fu and said, "It's okay, keep eating, there will be more later."

What needs to be popularized here is Ah Fu’s food intake. Ah Fu is about six feet tall (the length of the Tang Dynasty is about [-] foot and [-] centimeters). Eat in small buckets, not bowls.

If it is normal, it is a small bucket of rice plus vegetables, which is about the same.

Sometimes rice buckets are also beneficial.

The method of brine shrimp is simple, just add the simplest salt, pepper, green onion and ginger.The seasoning is simple, but the taste is good, because the simpler the seasoning can reflect the original flavor of the food.

The cooked prawns lack a lot of aroma. The meat of river prawns is fresh and tender. In fact, if you eat too much, it can also prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. With some light homemade soy sauce and vinegar, it will enhance the umami taste.

Yangzhou salted goose is actually a kind of stewed vegetable. As a special dish of Yangzhou, if you have not eaten salted goose here, you have not been to Yangzhou at all. Naturally, when you come here, you will naturally order one.

The meat of salted goose in the Tang Dynasty is naturally firmer, and the adult salted goose is used. Compared with the previous salted goose in modern times, it seems that a few Chinese medicines have been added in the middle, but it is like vanilla, and the taste is a bit strong. Of course it is more tasty.

Under the white and yellow skin, there is a thin layer of fat. In autumn, geese are fattening, not only geese, but also some game. Otherwise, why do everyone like to hunt in autumn?

If you come to Yangzhou, you must eat the stewed crab powder lion head, but at this time it is not called lion head, but another name, sunflower chopped meat.It is also made of meatballs, but the meatballs of the latter are indeed firmer, with good salted egg yolks in the middle, and they are served in a snow-white soup, which looks like a sunflower blooming.

Not only that, but there are also Yangzhou local game, pheasant and quail, and some roe roe roasted with a bit of fragrance and a tangy aroma. It tastes better than Rong Yushu's own barbecue before. This is the only one here. A dish with a strong taste.

After drinking and eating, the expression on Rong Yushu's face also eased a lot. Well, I feel much better after my stomach is full.

Looking at the people at the table, they all had happy expressions on their faces.

Feeling better, Rong Yushu became more courageous, did Tang Guang really come to Yangzhou to watch the Oiran Festival?Can't help asking curiously: "Tang Shaoqing also came to see the Oiran Festival?"

Tang Guang glanced at him, and said with disdain in his eyes: "Hmph, am I so selfless? This time I came to Yangzhou to handle the case."

Another case, Tang Guang is Di Renjie's predecessor!But think about it, isn't the original purpose of Dali Temple established to prevent those unjust, false and wrongly decided cases?Even so, Rong Yushu still didn't believe it. This guy didn't come to Yangzhou to have fun just to continue handling the case.

What Rong Yushu was thinking was clear from the surface. Zou Gan stroked his mustache and smiled. He seemed to have the charm of a mature man, and said with a smile: "Boss, come on!" Yangzhou really has a case to deal with, after all, it even has something to do with the girls in the brothels."

oh?Rong Yushu became curious, but looking at Tang Guang's appearance, he didn't seem to want to tell Rong Yushu, but Zou Gan explained, "It's like this, actually, in recent years, cases of human trafficking There have always been many, but most of the time they are in those very remote counties, but in big cities, among other things, there are still very few in Chang'an City."

Rong Yushu listened with gusto. Human trafficking was a very common thing in ancient China. If it was in such a prosperous age, the population registration is very strict, but there are always some omissions in some places. .

This kind of situation will always happen in prosperous times, and in troubled times, no one will care about this kind of thing.

But why did human trafficking come to Yangzhou?

Zou Gan continued to explain: "In human trafficking, the best ones are generally those five or six-year-old children. This kind of children, no matter whether they are from big families or small families, are the favorites. There is no limit to men and women. Buy them back as Little servants are very popular. Some of these people were sold by their parents, and some were trafficked from those mountain passes."

"If they are kidnapped and sold, they will usually be sold far away, usually thousands of miles away. Even if such children are sold, they will basically run back without knowing it."

"There is another kind that is very popular, that is, girls aged [-] or [-], and it is also the most common."

Zou Gan sighed and said: "Every big family needs a servant girl, so they turn a blind eye to this kind of thing, but recently it has been too rampant in Chang'an City, and even several families have lost it." Daughter, the parents of those families knelt at the gate of the yamen to complain about grievances, and they did not leave every day. As time went on, more and more people gathered at the gate. They all lost their daughters and sons in nearby places, aged between five and 16. It looks like they are of different ages."

When Rong Yushu heard this, he couldn't help feeling a little sad. There are many such things even in modern times, let alone in ancient times when the laws were not perfect.

Tang Guang knocked on the table with his hand, and suddenly said: "It's just a pity that the yamen wanted to investigate this matter and was inadvertently discovered by spies. For a while, people near the capital disappeared without a trace. It’s not easy to catch people, only to know that these people are actually premeditated.”

"There are those who specialize in trafficking, and there are very detailed divisions of people. They are divided into high-grade, middle-grade and low-grade. Finally, they are handed over to some people who are specially transported to various states and counties for sale. Those with good looks are sold to Qinlou and Chuguan. If it is of the highest grade, it will be sold to rich families as maids and servants, and for the lowest grade, it will be sold to the parents of some poor families as sons or child brides."

When he said this, Tang Guang's eyes turned to the window. The moonlight outside the window was thick, and Tang Guang's resolute and angular face became more and more cold.

With a cold smile, he pointed hard at the table with his hand, Rong Yushu could even feel the slight tremor of the table, and said, "Do you really think that the people in Dali Temple are vegetarians?"

Rong Yushu smiled softly, and said comfortingly: "Tang Shaoqing, don't worry, those people are afraid that they hid because they heard Mr. Tang's reputation." Here, do you need our help?"

Tang Guang glanced at Rong Yushu, with a look of contempt in his eyes, and said, "Of course not, what can you do for me?"

Rong Yushu choked up for a moment, but found that it seemed to be the same reason. He knew martial arts and had no power. What help could he need and what he could do?

However, Tang Guang's poisonous snake attribute seems to have not been cut off, and he continued to sarcastically say to several people: "Besides, just relying on your vigilance, what can you do to help me? It's so heavy that I don't even feel like I'm gone. No, do you think that all the blind people on this road will bump into you if they have nothing to do?"

Rong Yushu continued to choke with sobs, Brother Ming and Ah Fu lowered their heads in shame, Rong Yushu hurriedly said haha, "Hehe, isn't there Tang Shaoqing here?" It's a pity that I got it back All the money was taken to checkout.

Master Tang Guangtang was indeed a glamorous flower blooming on the high and cold cliff, and he glanced at Rong Yushu, who didn't notice it.

Rong Yushu continued: "So you came to Yangzhou? Are you looking for any clues? What happened? Do you have any conclusions?"

Zou Gan said with some hesitation: "No, if you want to sell the kidnapped people to all parts of the country, you can't do it without certain strength. If it is really done by a force, then you have to worry about it." But if it is not one force, but several forces, then this will be even more complicated."

Rong Yushu's smile was quite consoling, and he said, "It's okay, during the recent Oiran Festival, the forces in Jianghu usually come to join in the fun, so we can take advantage of this opportunity to investigate."

But what Rong Yushu thought in his heart was that all he could do was to say some cheering words beside him, what else could he do besides this?
