Diandude, Beer and BBQ City, and Hudi Lao all advertised seafood dishes one after another, attracting the attention of the capital's elite and common people.
The capital is located inland in the north, far away from the coastline. Most of the wealthy and powerful people have never seen the sea, let alone eaten seafood.
So they are all looking forward to it.
On this day, news suddenly spread in the capital that Li Changfeng's armored warship was about to arrive at the Grand Canal dock thirty miles away from the capital with seafood.
This news quickly detonated the entire capital.
Anyone who had some time flocked to the Grand Canal Pier.
Of course, they didn't go there just for the seafood.
They wanted to see the armored warships that fought against the Japanese pirates, and their enthusiasm was as high as when the steam train first took off.
This was unexpected by Li Changfeng. He seriously underestimated people's curiosity about armored warships, so that the convoy going to pick up the goods had a very difficult time getting to the dock.
At this time, the pier was already crowded with people.
Along the canal, there are also enthusiastic people everywhere.
After a while, as the whistle sounded, people stood on tiptoes and looked in the direction of the sound.
Hearing is false and seeing is true.
When the real armored warship was placed in front of them, everyone was shocked.
"Oh my God, this warship is so big. How many hundreds of refined steel and how much silver would it take to build it?"
"It doesn't even have a mast. It seems that it really uses steam power. This is simply incredible!"
"Have you seen that the armored warship is so fast and it drives so steadily!"
"No wonder it beats the Japanese pirates so much that they don't even dare to fart. This armored warship looks terrifying!"
"His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince is truly a god!"
"..."
Amid everyone's exclamations, the armored warship slowly docked.
Soon, baskets of seafood were brought down, causing the onlookers to exclaim again.
"It's such a big shrimp. It must be as thick as a person's arm, but it is much bigger than a crayfish!"
"Look at that soft-looking thing with many tentacles. It looks really disgusting. Can it really be eaten?"
"Oh my god, I have never seen such a big crab. It's bigger than my mother-in-law's butt!"
"Look at the fish over there. There are so many kinds of fish, and I don't know how they taste."
"No need to ask? His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince is top-notch when it comes to gourmet food!"
“I must try something new this time!”
"..."
Amid everyone's exclamations, truckloads of seafood were delivered to the capital.
Li Changfeng had already been waiting at Diandude, gathering all the chefs from Diandude, Beer and BBQ City, and Hudilao together.
These inland chefs have extremely limited knowledge of seafood cooking methods. As a senior foodie in his previous life, Li Changfeng did not know all about this, but he also knew most of the cooking methods.
In order to make the seafood an instant hit in the capital, Li Changfeng had to explain and demonstrate it himself.
These famous chefs in the capital were as eager as students to watch Li Changfeng cooking seafood, and were amazed by him in their hearts.
It was hard for them to understand how Li Changfeng could know everything, as if he was omniscient and omnipotent.
This demonstration lasted for three full days.
Finally, on the day of the Winter Solstice, Diandude, Beer and BBQ City, and Hudilao officially launched seafood dishes.
After hearing the news, diners in the capital came to taste it one after another. Every store was crowded with people, and everyone who had eaten it praised it.
Especially the big lobsters and big crabs are even more addictive.
From the beginning, Li Changfeng's position was to make money from the rich and powerful, so the price was extremely high, and ordinary people simply couldn't afford it.
Even so, the business was still so good that people were jealous. Li Changfeng made a lot of money, and even the eight major aristocratic families were very jealous.
Just when Li Changfeng was living a good life counting money every day until his hands cramped, a huge fleet led by Benjamin had quietly approached the Daqian coastline.
Benjamin's dress this time was completely different from his downcast appearance when he came to Daqian last time. He was dressed like a nobleman, and his sword was inlaid with gems. He looked very energetic.
Benjamin looked excited at the Daqian coastline in sight.
"Oh, Jack! We finally arrived at this place where there is gold everywhere. I feel like the smell of money is wafting in the air here. This time we are going to make a fortune again!"
As he spoke, Benjamin opened his arms, closed his eyes and breathed heavily, with a look of enjoyment on his face.
Jack, who was on the side, was now dressed in a rich and noble manner, with a golden light in his eyes and a look of anticipation on his face: "We have brought so many cargo ships this time, they must be completely filled. The bulk of the goods are so popular, I think.
It’s hard not to make money!”
Benjamin opened his eyes, looked at Jack and warned: "The gifts prepared for His Highness must be protected, especially the hundred beautiful ladies, and they must be guaranteed to be virgins. Tell those hungry bastards, even if they look more
One look at them and I will throw them all into the sea to feed the fishes!"
Jack puffed out his chest and promised: "Captain, don't worry, I will chop anyone who dares to touch His Highness the Ninth Prince's things!"
At this moment, an arrogant voice came from behind.
"Is Dagan coming soon?"
This is a tall, middle-aged man with pale skin, well-dressed, wearing white gloves and holding a cane. He holds his head high and can almost look at people through his nostrils.
Benjamin and Jack quickly turned around and bent down, and said with respectful expressions: "Dear Earl Hebrew, you are right, Daqian will be here soon."
Hebrew glanced at the two of them lightly and asked doubtfully: "Is this Daqian really as prosperous as you say?"
"Yes, your esteemed Hebrew Earl!"
"Okay, then I'd like to see how it compares to the imperial capital of my Germanic Empire."
"Okay, distinguished Hebrew!"
Suddenly, Hebrew frowned slightly, pointed in the distance and wondered: "What are those five rapidly approaching black spots?"
After hearing this, Benjamin and Jack raised their heads and turned around, looking in the direction that Hebrews pointed.
Jack looked at it for a moment and said in confusion: "Is this... a ship?"
Benjamin raised his hand to cover the dazzling sunlight and stood on tiptoe to watch hard, and said uncertainly: "Ordinarily they should be boats, but they are traveling against the wind. Normally, they cannot reach such a speed even if they are traveling with the wind. ah!"
Hebrews shook his head and sneered: "You are two stupid guys. Have you ever seen a ship without a mast? You don't know what this is."
Benjamin frowned slightly and said nothing.
At this moment, a whistle sounded in the distance, which aroused their great curiosity. All the sailors on the ship came to the bow, their eyes full of doubts.
