Guangzhou is already here, is Hainan still far away?
Far!
Song Yang had been to Guangzhou back then, but had not been to Sanya because he was busy on official business and did not allow him the opportunity to go to Sanya again.
As for the holidays…
996 workers are not entitled to holidays!
Hainan is already here, is Sanya still far away?
Not far!
When Song Yang set foot on Hainan Island, it meant that he had enough time and energy to travel to Sanya.
Such as this time.
In early July, under the scorching sun, Song Yang and his whole family set foot on this beautiful island.
Walking on the streets of Shecheng, Song Yang was in great spirits. The clothes of the people in Hainan were very different from those in the mainland.
There are many mountain people here, and their clothes are colorful and unique.
It stands to reason that such beautiful clothing should be able to attract women's attention.
But apart from Steamed Bun being in good spirits and looking around.
The four women including Tong Qian and Song Yang's two daughters all looked listless now.
Although everyone is holding parasols, the temperature in Hainan Island is indeed hotter than in Guangzhou.
What's more, it's already July, and it's getting hotter.
Tong Qian and her party were already losing their temper due to the heat, so how could they still be in the mood to look at new clothes?
Especially Lan Zhen, who came from Korea, kept fanning the small ball fan in her hand.
"My lord! How can there be such a hot place in this world? Is this the Flame Mountain you mentioned?"
Lan Zhen wiped her sweat while shaking her fan, still complaining.
Song Yang told his family the story of Journey to the West. Everyone remembers that there was a place where it was so hot that the furnace where gods made alchemy fell to earth.
Song Yang laughed and said: "The Flame Mountain is in the Western Region. It is hot and humid here, and it has nothing to do with the Flame Mountain."
"It is indeed hot and humid. If the heat continues like this, we will all sweat!" Tong Qian said angrily.
"Hehe. Then we won't go shopping today, let's go back, go back!" Song Yang smiled and turned around and said to everyone.
"Okay, okay! Go back quickly! I have to drink a glass of iced sour plum juice!" Shen Xiaowan, who had been silent for a long time, immediately became energetic.
Lia also wiped her sweat and looked at Song Yang, looking forward to turning around and going back soon.
When the two daughters heard their mother talking about sour plum juice, their eyes lit up.
"Uh, it seems I'm the only one who wants to continue shopping..." Song Yang was speechless.
"Dad! I want to go shopping too! It's quite interesting here!" As soon as Song Yang finished speaking, Mantou shouted with his head held high.
"Let's not go shopping now. Let's go back first. Rest for a while and wait for the sun to set before we come out!" Song Yang touched the little head of the steamed bun, but he felt sweat on his forehead.
At this time, Song Yang wondered if the steamed buns didn't know how hot they were!
On the boat back at the port, the old lady immediately brought me iced sour plum soup to relieve the heat.
The technology of making ice with saltpeter has long been mastered, and Song Yang has been able to chill drinks anytime and anywhere.
Song Yang and his party did not live in Shecheng. Although it was a prefectural city, it was extremely small. Before the natural disaster, it was only a lower-class state capital. This prefectural city was not as big as a county town in the Central Plains.
There was a place in the inn, but the conditions were actually not as good as on the ship, so Song Yang and his party simply went back to the ship to stay.
Fortunately, the pier in Shecheng is only a few steps away from the city, so you can go shopping anytime you want.
"It would be great if Xiaochu could get soda drinks quickly."
Song Yang took a big gulp of a bowl of iced sour plum soup and muttered something unfinished.
After the carbon dioxide was produced, Song Yang tried to make soda, but he never succeeded in inflating water, mainly because the airtightness of the sealed container and the inflation port had not yet been solved.
If the sealing is not solved, increasing the pressure of the container will cause air leakage.
After Song Yang came out, Chu Zian continued to study this matter.
"Ah Yang, the weather in Hainan is different from that in Jiangzhou. Although Jiangzhou is hot at this time, the humidity is not too high. It is hot and humid here, which makes people feel much uncomfortable." Living in the south all year round.
The third uncle saw that Song Yang's family was so excited that he smiled and said to Song Yang.
"Well. This is an island, and the humidity on the island must be higher." Song Yang nodded.
While they were chatting, Song Lan came, holding a steaming teapot in his hand.
"You have to drink this on a hot day. Although your sour plum soup relieves heat, it does not remove dampness. Mine is the one that relieves heat and removes dampness."
Third uncle Song Jing took the teapot and poured a bowl and handed it to Song Yang. Song Lan poured another bowl for each of Tong Qian and others.
"Third Grandpa, what is this? Is it also sour plum soup?" The steamed bun looked a little bit greedy as he looked at the black color in the bowl.
He also drank sour plum soup just now. It was sour and sweet. This boy loved it.
"Is this herbal tea?" Song Yang took the bowl and smelled it, then looked at his third uncle and asked.
"Huh? Ah Yang also knows about herbal tea! This thing is only available in Lingnan Road. It is a good thing for removing dampness and relieving fever." The third uncle stretched out his hand and motioned to Song Yang to drink it frequently.
Song Yang mentally refused. He drank this stuff in Guangzhou back then.
But Third Uncle has already given it to me, so it’s not good if I don’t drink it myself.
So Song Yang took the bowl and took a bite.
Use the tip of your tongue to remember the taste.
I’m really not used to drinking it!
Song Yang gritted his teeth and drank until his face was distorted before he made a small bowl of herbal tea.
Seeing Song Yang drinking, Tong Qian also took a sip from the bowl.
"puff!"
Tong Qian sprayed it directly, this smell...
Too over the top!
"Haha! Mom! Why did you vomit it out!" Steamed Bun laughed loudly.
Song Yang put a towel on Tong Qian, and Tong Qian looked at her third uncle sheepishly and said: "Third uncle, this... is really..."
The third uncle waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, it's like this if you don't get used to drinking it. It was like this when I first came to Nanhai. I sprayed it after one sip. Who would have thought that after drinking it, I would get used to it.
Now I still feel like I don’t want to drink it!”
Seeing Tong Qian squirt, Song Yang was twisted.
Shen Xiaowan, Lan Zhen, and Lia are also facing powerful enemies.
The three of them, holding the bowls as though they were dead, were as heroic as drinking guillotine.
Shen Xiaowan took a sip first.
Fortunately, I am mentally prepared.
Although I found it difficult to swallow, I persisted and finished the drink.
After finishing the work, I had another big bowl of sour plum soup to calm down.
Lan Zhen held the bowl and smelled it first. She thought it smelled good, but she didn't dare to try it easily.
So I raised my head and drank it straight away. After I was done, I immediately drank the sour plum soup.
It can be said that I basically have no taste of herbal tea...
Song Yang understood as soon as he saw Lan Zhen's expression. It turned out that he had never tasted the taste before, and it was always boring...
The last person to drink was Leah, who took a small sip first.
"Your Majesty, three sisters, this herbal tea is actually quite good. Isn't it bad to drink?"
After Lia took a sip, she gave her own evaluation.
This is very confusing. There may be harsher food in Persia, so Lia didn't think there was anything wrong with herbal tea at all. She even thought the taste was sweet and delicious...
"Haha! Liya is still lucky! This herbal tea can not only remove dampness and relieve heat, but also has many other effects, such as detoxification, greasiness, and..."
When his third uncle Song Jing saw that Lia liked drinking herbal tea, he immediately became interested and began to talk endlessly about the benefits of herbal tea.
Everyone else could only look at each other and listen.
"Father, it's getting late, why don't you have dinner first?" When Song Yang and others were drowsy, Song Lan suddenly said.
"Oh! Yes, let's eat first!" Song Jing stood up and said.
There is a restaurant on the ship, with sixteen tables arranged four by four, with eight people at each table, just like having a banquet.
Actually it's a buffet.
A variety of dishes were placed on the row of tables at the back, and behind them stood a few aunts whose hands were not shaking.
Serve whatever you want, and add more as you finish eating.
The only rule is to take less and work harder to avoid wasting it...
This buffet model was also invented by Song Yang. It was first promoted in the Jiangzhou Canteen. Later, this dining model was introduced into the army and was very popular among the soldiers.
After several years of development, the buffet style of eating is now basically the norm among Daqian troops.
As for private restaurants, there are actually buffet restaurants, but the prices are quite high.
If the price is low, some hungry people can really teach the boss how to be a good person in minutes.
This is a hard lesson. When the buffet first started to emerge, it was not just one or two families that collapsed.
"Dad! Daddy! There is a monster!"
"Wow! Monster! Woohoo!"
Song Yang was cooking there when he suddenly heard Steamed Bun shouting.
Then Song Yuhan and Song Yurou started to pull their necks and howl.
Song Yang hurriedly ran over to check and saw the aunt who was cooking looking at the young prince and the young princess with an innocent look on her face.
Tong Qian held the steamed bun to stop him from barking, while Shen Xiaowan was there to coax the child.
Song Yang took a look and saw that there were several plates of seafood placed together.
There are octopus, grouper, and monkfish.
Putting these ugly things together scared Mantou and his two daughters.
"Yu Han, Yu Rou is good. These are not monsters, they are fish!" Song Yang knelt down and explained to his daughters.
"Fish? Fish don't look like this!"
Song Yurou looked in disbelief. We are just children, we are not stupid. You, a father, actually lied to me...
Seeing the disbelief on the faces of the two girls, Song Yang looked at the steamed bun with eyes dripping.
"Damn it! Girl! This is really a fish!" Song Yang pointed at the ugly ones and said.
"Oh! It doesn't matter what they are, are these things edible?" Steamed Bun looked at the ugly things and stopped screaming.
Just now he was startled when he saw the strange fish for the first time, but this made him calm down. The fragrant smell attracted him.
"It's edible, and it's delicious!" Song Yang nodded.
"Then I want this! This! And this!" Steamed Bun pointed at them one by one, they were all ugly.
I have to say, this guy is pretty good at choosing, and all of these flavors are pretty good.
Song Yang brought his wife and children along the way, but he really had never eaten any decent seafood.
Before Quanzhou, there were official ships supplying meals all the way, and Song Yang didn't catch anything strange even while fishing in bed.
When we arrived at Wanwan, we were busy cleaning up Cai, Su, and Wu's family. After that, they also ate a normal diet. Occasionally, they had some seafood, which was normal fish. No one below had ever served such ugly food.
Today is also a good time. The fishing boats coming back from the pier are either small fish or ugly ones.
There is no other way, the canteen has no choice but to arrange for the ugly ones.
Unexpectedly, the young prince and the princess were really frightened.
Song Yang comforted his children and asked the canteen staff not to mind.
I also praised them for their good craftsmanship and great taste.
Finally, I arranged several ugly things for the steamed buns.
Steamed buns are also like newborn calves, not afraid of tigers, so they gnawed on an octopus as soon as they caught it.
"Hmm! It's delicious! Big sister and second sister! These things are so delicious!"
