The lanterns are just lit,
The palace of the First Emperor was brightly lit.
In order to express his gratitude to Su Han, the First Emperor had specially asked Su Han to stay and eat with him.
"Your Majesty, do you eat this every day?”
Looking at the mutton soup on the dining table, which had a rather pungent smell and was emitting a large amount of oil, and the pot helmet that was so hard that it could kill a person, Su Han could not help but be a little dumbfounded.
Even though Great Qin's food was far inferior to that of the gluttonous empires of the later generations, he was still the Qin Emperor; it was too simple and crude.
"The Great Qin Empire has just been established, and now it's out on patrol!”
Seeing the surprise in Su Han's eyes, the First Emperor explained.
"Your Majesty is trying to say that as the Qin Emperor, you should take the lead in frugality so as not to follow the example of your superiors and encourage extravagance, right?”
Su Han said.
"As expected of Mr. Su. You really understand my intentions!”
The First Emperor was slightly pleased with himself.
Although he had heard such praise many times, the person in front of him was a prophet from the future, so the weight was naturally different.
"His Majesty's intentions are indeed good!”
"In the history books, there were many emperors like Your Majesty. There was even a Ming Taizu, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born a beggar. Not only did he save himself, but he was also extremely harsh on his subjects.
They even set a strict punishment of beheading for taking ten taels of silver, which was equivalent to ten strings of money from Great Qin. They even skinned him and hung him at the entrance of the government office!”
Su Han shrugged.
"This Emperor surnamed Zhu seems to have a close relationship with me!”
A hint of approval appeared on the First Emperor's face.
Although Su Han's behavior was definitely considered disrespectful before the Emperor according to the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor had never been restricted by etiquette and law, so he did not take it seriously.
But soon, the First Emperor's expression changed and he asked,""From what Mister means, this Sovereign King Zhu's punishment for corruption is not ideal?”
"In the beginning, it did receive a good effect. The entire Great Ming's officials were much more honest than before!”
"However, as Zhu Yuanzhang grew old and the domestic economy did not really improve, prices soared, and the already meager salaries of the officials became even more difficult to sustain. There were people who tried to break the law.”
"After the king passed away, the officials even became more vengeful. The so-called law became a piece of paper without anyone enforcing it!”
Su Han shook his head and said," According to the saying of the later generations, in order to make the national treasury no longer empty, other than reducing expenditure, the more important thing is to open up new sources of income. It's the same principle as when the water is big, there will be more fish!"”
"What a good idea to increase revenue and reduce expenditure!"
The First Emperor nodded." I feel more and more fortunate to have met such a strange person like Mister Su. Every time I talk to him, I benefit a lot!"”
"Your Majesty, don't just be sentimental. My intention is to eat better with Your Majesty!”
Su Han said with an embarrassed smile.
"You!"
Even the First Emperor didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This self-proclaimed transmigrator, Mr. Smith, was really special!
After making a fuss for so long, he had felt sorry for himself for a long time, but in the end, it was just for his own appetite.
"Your Majesty, don't underestimate the importance of eating well!”
"For most of the commoners, what they want in their lives is nothing more than to eat and wear warm clothes, marry a wife, have children, and carry on the family line!”
"As long as you can do this, the people will be willing to support you.”
"In fact, many of the smaller nobles only want to live a few more generations without worry. As for Great Qin or Great Zhou, they don't care at all!”
"As long as Your Majesty can let most of the people not have to worry about food and clothing, I believe that the world's loyalty is definitely not a dream!" Su Han said.”
"Is that so?"
Ying Zheng fell into deep thought.
Compared to the other emperors, he had a unique experience. When he was young, he was a hostage in the State of Zhao. After his father, Yi Ren, escaped back to the State of Qin, he followed his mother to hide from the Zhao army for several years. He had personally witnessed the suffering of the bottom of society.
Now that he thought about it, those people he had seen back then had indeed fought their entire lives for a piece of land that belonged to them. They did not even know who the county magistrate was, let alone the king.
"Of course, as long as Great Qin becomes rich, no matter how good the food His Majesty eats, it will lead Great Qin's food trend. The officials and commoners will all try to imitate it, and the people will naturally submit!”
" To be more specific, His Majesty's current diet is too unreasonable. Eating and drinking well can make His Majesty's body healthier and more energetic. Naturally, it will be twice the result with half the effort when dealing with court affairs!”
As Su Han explained, he began to think about how to solve the problem of tonight's delicacies.
It couldn't be helped. The food during the Qin Dynasty was too simple.
Not only did they not have an iron pot, but they also had to boil or barbecue their food, or even eat it raw. Moreover, they were seriously lacking in seasonings.
As the outstanding successor of the foodie empire, Su Han felt that he had to improve the culinary skills of the First Emperor to avoid becoming a disgrace to transmigrators!
"I would like to see what new achievements Mister Su can make in the field of food!”
The First Emperor took a long time to digest Su Han's bold and unrestrained remarks. He smiled and shook his head.
There were many things that could make one feel happy when they were together with this kid. They felt much younger.
As for what to eat, the First Emperor wouldn't be so stingy since he was a prophet who had done him a great favor.
Moreover, he was a human after all. If he could eat better, who would want to soak in the same mutton soup every day?
