    On the streets of the capital, Emperor Hongzhi was strolling around casually. After he came out once and looked at the cement road, he was not in a hurry to go back and planned to have another look in the capital.

    With the continuous flow of marine fish from Tianjin into the capital, and the grain merchants in the capital also selling grain at a penny a pound, the situation in the entire capital has been completely stabilized, and the imperial court has also urgently transferred grain from the south.  We are almost arriving in the capital, and this famine is basically over.

    The food supply is stable, and the people in the capital are gradually settling down, and the prosperity is slowly returning.

    Various food stalls, flour dumplings, sesame cake stalls, etc. that were not seen at all some time ago have also opened again. The shouts of these stalls and vendors can be heard everywhere in the streets and alleys of the capital.

    Because food is so expensive, it is naturally impossible to operate all kinds of snacks, noodles, etc., which makes life very difficult for many families in Beijing who make a living from this.

    Now that the price of food has dropped significantly, and you can even buy food for a penny a pound, these small vendors naturally have to seize the time to make money.

    ¡°It¡¯s time for cooking cakes~ It¡¯s time for delicious cooking cakes, it¡¯s time for fresh cooking cakes just out of the oven~¡±

    "Here are the steamed buns, here are the steamed buns, delicious steamed buns~"

    "Steamed buns, delicious steamed buns~"

    Emperor Hongzhi walked on the street, listening to the shouts of the vendors, with a smile on his face. From time to time, he would visit the vendors and even buy something while eating.  As he walked, he didn't care at all about his description as emperor.

    Next to Emperor Hongzhi, Zhu Houzhao was doing the same. He was holding two buns in his hands and looking in all directions with his small eyes, as if he was looking for new delicacies. Yanran also looked like a common citizen.

    As for Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang, they were relatively more reserved. They only accompanied Emperor Hongzhi, and they seemed not to be surprised by Emperor Hongzhi's appearance.

    ¡°Wang¡¯s steamed dumplings~¡±

    Zhu Houzhao was eating steamed buns in his hand, and when he came to a familiar place, his little eyes immediately locked on a food stall that he had particularly liked before, and then he pulled Emperor Hongzhi's hand, like a greedy child.

    ¡°It¡¯s been a long time since I¡¯ve had these steamed dumplings, I miss them so much.¡±

    Emperor Hongzhi's eyes were also brightened, and he and Zhu Houzhao came out to try this folk snack. This was an activity that both he and Zhu Houzhao liked. It could be said that they had eaten from all the vendors in the capital. This Wang's steamed dumplings were two  One of father and son¡¯s favorite snacks.

    "Two steamed dumplings~"

    When he came to Wang¡¯s Steamed Dumplings, Emperor Hongzhi said with a smile.

    "Okay~ Two steamed dumplings, please wait a moment."

    Wang, who sells steamed dumplings, immediately became happy and busy when she saw customers coming to her door.

    ¡°Madam, you haven¡¯t been out at the stall during this period, and I¡¯m quite worried. I¡¯m afraid I¡¯ll never be able to eat your steamed dumplings again.¡±

    Emperor Hongzhi looked at Wang, who had lost a lot of weight, and said with a smile.

    "We are dissatisfied with our distinguished guests. Food was so expensive some time ago that our small stalls and vendors couldn't afford to run it. We couldn't even afford food and almost starved to death. With two hundred coins per catty of food, these profiteers will be struck by lightning."  Yes, all the valuable things in the family were pawned, but my little grandson still almost starved to death."

    "If the current emperor, Sheng Ming, hadn't ordered people to transport sea fish to Beijing, our whole family would have starved to death."

    Speaking of this, Mrs. Wang burst into tears. The famine really almost killed her, and the food was too expensive.

    Wang's family used to make a living mainly by selling her steamed dumplings. The food was expensive, so naturally her steamed dumpling business couldn't continue. Without the money-making business, the food here was rising desperately, and the whole family was struggling every day.  Without a pound of food to eat, people almost starved to death.

    Hearing Wang's words, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but feel guilty, feeling that he was really not a good emperor.

    "Are you used to eating sea fish?"

    Hongzhi thought for a while and asked.

    ¡°Get used to it, get used to it, this sea fish has few bones, no earthy smell, and is very fresh and sweet. The key is that it is cheap, one penny per pound. This is a life-saving straw for us poor people.¡±

    Wang nodded repeatedly and said.

    ¡°That¡¯s good, that¡¯s good.¡±

    Emperor Hongzhi smiled and nodded, leaving Wang on the side confused as to what he meant.

    "Dear guest, your steamed dumplings are ready, the total cost is five cents."

      Soon, Wang handed over the two steamed dumplings to Emperor Hongzhi. Xiao Jing, who was on the side, naturally took them quickly and handed over five cents.

    "Well, it still tastes the same, delicious."

    Zhu Houzhao couldn't wait to start eating, mumbling while eating. At this moment, he completely lost the image of a Ming prince. In response, Emperor Hongzhi on the side also smiled and touched his head. He actually enjoyed this time very much.  of.

    In this time, he is no longer the emperor, and Zhu Houzhao is no longer the prince. The two of them are just a simple father and son. The son is greedy and the father is loving. He can eat whatever he wants, not as much as in the palace.  Follow the rules, be free, and enjoy this short wonderful time without restraint.

    ¡°Wow~ there is grilled saury, this is definitely not to be missed.¡±

    Zhu Houzhao's little eyes kept looking around, and soon he hurried towards a barbecue stall again. This barbecue stall was different from the previous barbecue stalls that roasted mutton. It turned out to be a barbecue stall that mainly focused on seafood.  .

    ¡°Boss, you have quite a variety of products, including saury, snails, squid, crabs, large yellow croaker¡­¡±

    Zhu Houzhao looked at the goods on the stall and read them out one by one like a treasure trove. When he was in Tianjin, he ate these things with Liu Jin a lot, and he still remembers them.

    "Sir, you really know the goods. I didn't expect you to know all about my overseas goods."

    The owner of the barbecue stall is very young, only in his twenties, with a slight accent from Tianjin. He gave Zhu Houzhao a thumbs up, but he did not expect that there are people in the capital who can recognize these seafood.

    "Of course I know, and I also know how to make these seafood delicious. Get some saury, add more cumin, some squid, and this rattle snail. You have some chopped green onion and garlic, right?  , put some of it all in, this big yellow croaker needs to be roasted a little"

    Zhu Houzhao was slightly proud, and then started to order. He explained everything clearly and clearly, making the owner of the barbecue stall nod his head again and again, secretly saying that he had met a customer who knew what he was buying.

    "Boss, these things have never been baked in Beijing before. Why do you want to do this business?"

    Here, Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian, Xie Qian, Li Dongyang and others also walked over slowly. Emperor Hongzhi looked at the various seafood displayed at the stall and asked with a smile.

    "Unsatisfied guest, I'm from Tianjin. There are so many seafood here in Tianjin that it's hard to finish them all, so everyone has slowly developed various ways to eat them. This barbecue is the most popular way to eat it now."  The method is said to have been introduced by Master Liu of the Jin Dynasty, and it is now popular in Tianjin."

    "Here in Tianjin, everyone is used to having late-night snacks and barbecue after finishing night classes. I was thinking about opening a seafood barbecue stall in Beijing."

    The boss replied while he was busy.

    "That's right~"

    "Is business okay?"

    When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he immediately smiled happily.

    "Thanks to the blessing of the current saint, the business is not bad. Guest, would you like to try it? This seafood barbecue is definitely a rare delicacy, especially the grilled snails, the taste is unique."

    Having said this, a smile appeared on the boss's face. The grilled seafood is very fresh here in Beijing, and his craftsmanship is really good. The seafood is fresh seafood shipped from Tianjin, and Beijing is rich.  In a place where people gather, the business is still very good.

    "Okay, let's have a few."

    Emperor Hongzhi and Liu Jian, Xie Qian and others around him looked at each other and said with a smile.

    "Okay, please sit down first and wait for a while. It will be fine soon."

    When the boss heard this, he immediately became happy and busy.

    Everyone did not wait for too long. The grilled seafood was served one after another. Zhu Houzhao started to eat like a glutton. While eating, he shook his head slightly: "Compared with Lao Liu's craftsmanship, it is still a lot worse.  The garlic in the snails is too little, and the squid is too old"

    As for Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian and others on the side, they were more reserved. They tasted the grilled seafood carefully and nodded slightly. The taste is indeed good, very delicious, and a brand new delicacy.

    After eating the delicious food, Zhu Houzhao silently wrote down the location of this stall. Everyone continued to stroll around the streets of the capital, shopping and shopping, and soon came to the food store and saw the lines of people lined up at the food store.  The long dragon was immediately attracted to it.

    ¡°I heard that these grain merchants now sell grain for one penny per catty, but I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s true or not.¡±

    Emperor Hongzhi naturally knew very well about the big and small things in the capital. He also knew about the news about the price reduction of grain. Now that he came to the grain store, he naturally wanted to go and see it in person to see if it was worth a penny per pound.  , is the food sold here good or bad?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?
