Now Qiao Xiufen will go up the mountain to see if bamboo shoots have popped up.

"Bamboo shoots? I think I've eaten them before." An Xiaopang became particularly active when he heard about a field he was familiar with.

"How come I don't know?" Qin Sanlang was still a little surprised.

An Xiaopang was with him most of the time. If An Xiaopang had eaten, it made no sense that he hadn't.

Especially how could he not remember things that Xiaopang An remembered.

As soon as they heard the conversation between these two people, everyone couldn't help but look at them, wondering what was going on.

"You were in the palace at that time. What my grandfather took me to eat was from a street stall. I didn't dare to let my family know." Xiaopang An spread his hands.

It was such an unfortunate coincidence that Qin Sanlang was called into the palace by his uncle that time.

He stayed in the study of his grandfather, Old An, and hit it off with him immediately, so Old An took him to the street.

"It's so delicious. It's so fresh. I still remember it. My grandfather said it was his private store that no one else knew about." An Xiaopang can't help drooling now when he thinks about it. Point of elation.

This is a little secret between him and his grandfather, Old Man An.

Qin Hong and An Yibo looked a little strange on the side, but no one noticed.

"I still remember that the shop was quite small. It was almost like a small stall. It could only seat two tables of customers, but it was still clean. I was still wondering how such a small shop could continue to open in the capital. Yeah." Xiaopang An started dancing with joy when he said it.

Especially when he saw everyone in the hall listening to his story.

"Then how do you keep driving?" Li Anan was really curious.

Living in the capital is not easy.

Even if she had never been there, it was not difficult to imagine how difficult it would be to survive in the capital of a dynasty.

Of course, there will be more opportunities in such places.

An Xiaopang became even more excited when someone answered.

"Because it's expensive!" He clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention.

On the contrary, Qin Hong and An Yibo's mouths twitched, looking strange.

"It's still very expensive for just two tables?" Li Anan was surprised. If a small shop like this charges high prices, wouldn't it be afraid of people charging protection fees?

That's what she thought and asked.

Then she realized that everyone was looking at her like she was an idiot, except her parents.

Especially the gentleman's eyes, which actually contained a little bit of love.

"Did I say something wrong?" This feeling of being noticed by everyone is more suitable for An Xiaopang, not her!
"That's the capital city. Who dares to charge protection fees under the emperor's feet?" An Xiaopang simply hated the fact that iron cannot become steel.

His friend didn't even react, which made him want to take her to the capital to see it all.

"The capital is a place where anyone who is caught casually might be a ninth-grade person, let alone bullying the people. Who would dare? Moreover, there is no guarantee that behind any of the vendors there is a relative who is an official, like Fang Fang. This situation of collecting protection fees in market towns does not exist in the capital city." Qin Sanlang showed a rare kindness at this time and explained clearly to Li An'an.

You have to ask him how he knows it so well. If you have a group of relatives who are older than you and like to go out and play with cats and dogs all day long, then you also know.

Although Qin Sanlang is young, his knowledge is not narrow at all.

Feeling Qin Sanlang's caring eyes for the mentally retarded, Li Anan rolled his eyes.

Well, she is from a small place and has no experience.

Qin Hong said nothing and watched his two younger apprentices teach his older apprentice.

It's not a big deal anyway. "Keep talking, keep talking." Li Anan was embarrassed by them and urged Fatty An to continue.

"Even though their house only has two tables, and it's small and broken, each table costs one tael of silver! That's one tael!" An Xiaopang gestured with one finger.

Even if he doesn't have a deep concept of silver, he still knows that one tael of silver can buy a lot of things.

Especially after coming here, I got to know Li Anan, and gained a better understanding of various aspects of commodity prices. I also learned how many families may not be able to save even a tael of silver in a year.

Looking back, I feel that the meal was really expensive.

"So expensive?" It was Qiao Xiufen who exclaimed.

Li Dagen also clicked his tongue, this capital is really different.

Qiao Xiufen counted on her fingers. One tael of silver could be enough to put a simple table in their restaurant.

But a meal in the capital costs one tael of silver.

Even though they are all the same table, the difference is huge.

Hearing what An Xiaopang meant, he knew that just the two of them could eat a lot on one table, and since it was a small shop, they definitely couldn't put out a large table of dishes.

However, the table in the restaurant is a large and serious table, capable of entertaining at least five or six people.

After this calculation, the store he mentioned was simply too expensive.

Li Anan didn't need to count on his fingers, he just thought about it in his mind and knew that it was indeed expensive.

Looking at it this way, people in the capital seem to be making a lot of money.

Seeing that everyone was surprised by the price, An Xiaopang nodded with satisfaction.

So it's really not that he's making a fuss. Normal people would think it's expensive when they hear the price of a meal.

"And you can't order food at their house. You just eat whatever is available that day." An Xiaopang felt a little regretful when he thought about this. He had only been there once.

But it was indeed delicious that time, otherwise he wouldn’t still be thinking about it now.

"Will we serve meat and vegetables?" Qiao Xiufen couldn't help but ask.

In her concept, the meat is so expensive, and if customers can't order it and it's entirely up to the store, then it's okay to make it all vegetarian.

"There are meat dishes, one meat, one vegetable and one soup. It's different every day. I heard my grandfather say that what is served in the store that day depends on the mood of the chef that day and the season at that time." It was spring when An Xiaopang went there, and he happened to eat the bamboo shoots that Li Anan mentioned.

That's why he suddenly found such a store from his memory.

"Very unique." Li Anan held his chin, looking forward to the capital.

I even want to taste it.

You must know that she used to be a food critic. Her favorite thing is to taste all kinds of food and then comment on it.

In this ancient time, there was no way for me to become an amateur cook.

But if she has the opportunity to taste other people's cooking skills, she will still be very happy.

Regardless of whether you are an expert or not, eating delicious food is something that makes people feel very happy.

"A meat dish, a vegetable dish, and a soup costs one tael of silver. This is a money grab." Qiao Xiufen couldn't help but muttered to herself after hearing that there were only three dishes.

It was hard for her to imagine what kind of craftsmanship could command such a high price.

"Yeah, it's really expensive. I thought it was expensive when I heard it from my grandfather, but it's really, really delicious!" Fatty An smacked his mouth, a little greedy.
