- In the private room on the top floor of Songhu Restaurant.
Wen Zhengming, Cai Yu, Tang Zhen, Chen Chun, Zhu Yunming and more than a dozen literati and scholars gathered together to entertain Leonardo da Vinci from Europe.
Although Leonardo da Vinci was a European, the Ming Dynasty people always looked down on Europeans and called Europeans European barbarians. However, Da Vinci quickly gained the recognition of these Ming Dynasty people with his talents in painting, literature, philosophy, etc.
After a conversation, they were very happy, and even Wen Wenqi and Da Vinci had a feeling of sympathy. Both of them were good at painting. When they talked about the art of Eastern and Western painting, they became red-faced. On the other hand, they ask each other for advice on painting techniques, key points, etc.
¡°Your Ming Dynasty¡¯s delicacies are indeed well-deserved!¡±
Da Vinci touched his round belly. Even though he was older, he always ate less, but this time he was really full.
This Songhu Restaurant is the most famous restaurant in Songhu, and it goes without saying that the dishes are delicious.
"Sir, what's the food situation like in Europe?"
Cai Yu looked at Da Vinci, smiled and asked.
They are actually quite curious about the situation in Europe. Although a lot of relevant information has been reported in newspapers, it is not as interesting as what the Europeans themselves say.
"We in Europe are far inferior to you in the Ming Dynasty in terms of food. You Ming people have a variety of cooking methods and a wide variety of ingredients."
¡°But here in Europe, our cooking methods are relatively simple, mainly boiling, frying, roasting, and stir-frying is more grilled. In addition, in terms of food types, here in Europe, we mainly use bread, vegetables, fruits, etc. Not as good as Ming Dynasty."
Da Vinci thought for a while and said.
The wealth of the Ming Dynasty people can be seen only in their diet.
The large table of dishes in front of them is full of color, flavor and ingredients, and the ingredients come from all over the world. Even considering that they are from Europe, they even have some dishes from the Mediterranean.
The wines on Table Mountain are also diverse. There are not only wines produced in Daming, but also red wines from France and Italy in Europe, which gave Leonardo da Vinci a taste of his hometown.
Such a table of dishes is enough to show the wealth of the Ming Dynasty. Although this meal is obviously not cheap, the nobles and royal families in Europe, even if they are rich, may not be able to consume these things.
There is no extremely convenient commerce, goods circulate quickly, and there are some things that you can¡¯t even eat if you have money.
The fruits on the table include apples and cherries from the Western Regions, oranges from the south of the Yangtze River, watermelons from the Ryukyus, and tropical fruits from Southeast Asia. They are all fresh, which shows how convenient road transportation was in the Ming Dynasty.
The benefits of overhauling railways and highways, and developing maritime transportation and trade are reflected. Commodities and goods from all over the world can circulate at will.
"bread?"
"There are so many types of pasta here in Daming. There are so many types of noodles alone. In addition, there are also steamed buns, steamed buns, dumplings and other pasta."
When Tang Zhen heard this, she smiled and said.
"Yes, Daming's food is the best in the world. I had heard about it when I was in Italy. It was only after I came to Daming that I finally understood."
Da Vinci nodded solemnly, there was obviously no need for debate on this point.
¡°Do you have any famous Italian food?¡±
Chen Chun thought for a while and asked.
¡°When it comes to gourmet food, our Italian cheese and red wine are very famous throughout Europe.¡±
Da Vinci thought for a while and said.
"I have tasted European cheese, and it tastes really good. It is very useful for children to eat."
Wen Zhengming also said quickly after hearing this.
Trade between the East and the West is becoming more and more frequent, and a large amount of European goods are not only flowing to the Ming Dynasty, but also cheese from Italy, red wine from France, ham from Spain, etc.
For scholars of the Ming Dynasty such as Wen Zhengming, Cai Yu, and Tang Zhen, their families were well off and they had no worries about food and clothing. Naturally, they were also the first to taste delicious food and wine from all over the world.
"Now in Nanyun Province, Hezhong, Xiyu and other places, there are also some manors making this cheese, and the taste is also very good."
Zhu Yunming also added.
¡°Cheese is still the most authentic and best cheese from Italy!¡±
Speaking of cheese, Leonardo da Vinci started talking endlessly about the history, varieties and production of Italian cheese.To your great wisdom. "
Da Vinci nodded after hearing this, and then expressed some of his thoughts.
"As the saying goes, the sea is open to all rivers, and tolerance is great. Sir, you can actually translate some European classics. We also want to learn and take a look."
"Yes, yes~"
"As the saying goes, when three people are walking together, there must be one teacher. The cultural thoughts in Europe must also have their own advantages. You might as well translate more."
¡°It¡¯s a pity that I don¡¯t know Latin, otherwise I could have learned it.¡±
"Brother Zhu, how about we go to Europe and travel together?"
"Forget it, forget it, Europe is too far away, thousands of miles away~" Zhida z.com Zhixiao
"Mr. Leonardo da Vinci is already over sixty years old. At this age, he still comes to study in our Ming Dynasty. We are in our prime, so what are we afraid of when we go to Europe to study?"
"Let me think about it, let me think about it~"
