While the officials were eating and sleeping restlessly.
The day had come.
The officials were dressed in official robes, and the wives were dressed beautifully.
There was a sense of competition.
At the banquet in the palace.
Naturally, the men and women were separated!
The officials would head to Xianyang Palace, while the wives of the officials would hold a banquet in the rear palace.
All the officials had gathered in Xianyang Palace.
"Lord Wang, you're early. Please, please!”
"Lord Zhou is too polite. Seeing that you have a big bag, this is a generous gift for the Crown Prince!”
"No, no…"
"Prime Minister Li, please take a seat!"
"Prime Minister Feng, you're here. Take a seat, take a seat!”
The officials were still chatting merrily.
Ying Ziye appeared.
The eunuch's sharp voice rang out,""The Crown Prince has arrived!"
The officials hurriedly got up and knelt down.
"Greetings, Crown Prince!"
"Greetings, Crown Prince!"
"Greetings, Crown Prince!"
……
Ying Ziye sat on the table and supported the officials in the air.
"Beloved ministers, rise!"
"Thank you, Crown Prince!"
The officials then stood up.
Ying Ziye's face was full of smiles as he looked at the civil and military officials. It was as if he had seen shiny gold.
He had been in charge of the country for so long.
This was the first time the officials had seen such a genial Ying Ziye.
He didn't know why.
Being looked at by Ying Ziye like this, the fear in the hearts of the officials became even deeper.
He felt that his money bag was going to suffer.
They swore in their hearts that they would not be fooled so easily!
Ying Ziye looked at everyone.
He was the first to speak.
"Tonight's banquet was held when this prince went out to sea to search for immortal pills for Imperial Father, and unexpectedly obtained a wonderful cooking method!”
"To be able to make delicious dishes that make people drool!”
"This prince thinks of all the beloved ministers who usually work hard for the country!”
"That's why I invited all the officials to reward them!”
"Men, serve the dishes!"
Hearing Ying Ziye's words, the officials were slightly stunned.
Just this?
Just to reward the officials?
Try a new dish?
The dishes had already been served. Had she been worried for so many days in vain?
Or perhaps…
The generous gifts prepared by the officials were effective?
Ying Ziye didn't mention the matter of money, which made the officials uneasy.
But very quickly!
Everyone was attracted by a fragrance.
"Eh? What's that smell?"
"I've never smelled such a fragrance before!”
"Is this the fragrance of vegetables?"
"How could this be?"
When the first dish was served, it completely overturned everyone's worldview.
In the State of Qin.
Although the officials and nobles could eat meat every day.
However, due to the limitations of cooking techniques, even the most basic fishy smell of meat could not be removed.
Not to mention the taste!
The dishes carefully prepared by Ying Ziye were naturally able to shock all the officials.
It looked, smelled, and tasted great!
The officials couldn't wait to pick up a mouthful of food and put it into their mouths.
It was a taste that he had never tasted before.
Instantly.
The officials were about to explode!
"Oh my god…It's so delicious. How can there be such delicious dishes?”
"I've never eaten it before!"
"Is this pork?"
"Why is it completely different from what I usually eat?”
"No!"
"That's why it's salty, but it doesn't taste bitter. Instead, it makes one salivate!”
"What's going on?"
"Is there anything else that can replace coarse salt?”
Many officials immediately found the main point.
Other things might not be needed by the human body, but salt was a necessity for everyone.
The importance of salt to people was self-evident. Without salt, any nation or country would lose its competitiveness and even be unable to survive.
Salt meant wealth.
However!
In Great Qin, whether it was the commoners or the nobles, they could only eat coarse salt.
Coarse salt was salt that had not been completely removed of impurities.
Although it tastes salty.
However, there was a bitter taste in the salty taste.
That was exactly the case.
As such, Great Qin's food was quite unpalatable.
He was just used to this smell.
And now.
The dishes that Ying Ziye cooked with refined salt would definitely beat any cooking of Great Qin in terms of taste.
How could these officials not be shocked?
Almost instantly.
The officials and nobles seemed to be starving.
She kept eating.
"Delicious!"
"It's too delicious!"
"This is simply the most delicious dish I've ever eaten in my life!”
"This thing should only exist in the sky!"
Although Ying Ziye had prepared a lot of food, it was only enough for everyone to eat their fill. He didn't expect that the officials would eat until they were stuffed.
He wolfed down the food.
The banquet that would have taken two hours to end.
It actually ended in less than an hour.
The officials were not even satisfied.
As he watched the officials finish eating, his eyes were filled with desire.
Ying Ziye stood up at the right time and asked with a smile,""How is it? Is my dish to your liking?”
All the officials gave their thumbs up and nodded crazily.
Ying Ziye smiled and said," In order to liven things up for everyone, this prince has specially prepared some after-meal entertainment for everyone!”
After saying that.
Ying Ziye clapped his hands.
Instantly.
At the entrance of Xianyang Palace.
A row of palace maids, each pushing a cart, began to walk in in order.
The first palace maid walked in.
Ying Ziye started to explain!
"Why is the dish that you just ate so delicious? The most important thing is salt!"
"As for Great Qin, everyone eats coarse salt. Not only is it bitter, but it's also difficult to swallow!”
"How can coarse salt be used to make delicacies?”
"Therefore, the most important thing is this refined salt!”
What the hell!
Refined salt?
As expected, was that delicious dish made with refined salt?
No wonder!
Everyone present was an official and noble, so they naturally understood what the appearance of refined salt represented.
Everyone looked at Ying Ziye in shock.
He seemed to have guessed what Ying Ziye was going to say next.
As expected.
Ying Ziye smiled faintly.
"Delicious high-grade refined salt, this is the only shop with no branches!”
"If you miss it, you won't be able to taste the delicious food again!”
"Such refined salt can only be sold for ten taels per gram, limited to one catty. First come, first served!”
