What are the embarrassing facts in history?

Today, there are lazy people and busy people who are keen on ordering "take-out", so were there such people in ancient times? Technology is changing with each passing day, but some living habits remain unchanged for thousands of years. Use the ancient "takeaway" to tell the truth you don't know.

It is reported that it is no longer the case to run a takeaway by electric car. In ancient times, it was also a bit "takeaway", but it was not like riding an electric car in ancient times. People are really capable, using "wind ham" to catch up with time.

In the Song Dynasty, there was a "take-away" service in Kaifeng, the capital, and historical records were quite popular. In particular, Emperor Xiaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty loved the food outside the palace. After all, the delicacies in the palace are delicious, sometimes I get tired of eating them every day, and occasionally I taste the "new goods" outside, so there is no taste.

So as an emperor, can you leave the palace at will? Of course not. What should I do if I want to eat food outside the palace?

Therefore, the solution is always more difficult than the reality. Emperor Xiaozong said, "Today I want to change my taste. Come on, give me some takeaway from the palace! "

Imperial secretary in charge: "Which takeaway does your Majesty want today?"

Emperor Xiaozong: "Steamed mutton, steamed bear's paw, steamed deer's tail, roast duck, roast chicken, roasted goose ..."

Responsible for the relevant imperial secretary: "..."

Please omit the above dialogue. Emperor Xiaozong's normal dishes should be like this: "Vegetable soup with fat, Hersi cheese noodles, Zangsan pig's pancreas and Hu cake …" and so on.

According to Miscellaneous Collection, "Xiaozong enjoys going back to Bangladesh in the first month of winter, and buying the market according to the lamp is up to him." This is the normal operation of the emperor.

Although eating delicious food outside the palace eased the emperor's appetite, the most bitter thing in this process was the police. The capital is not big, but it is definitely not small. There was no electricity in ancient times, 10 minutes away. Therefore, in ancient times, only those idle Han people with "wind ham" could do this job well.

Although it is hard, as long as it can make the food make Emperor Xiaozong happy, people from aristocrats to shops will be rewarded.

"Miscellaneous Identification Collection": "Pile up in front of the curtain, and when you see tens of thousands of dollars, declare them to eat in the market. The song is called consistent, and consistent. " In addition to the emperor, powerful people in the city are also keen on "ordering takeout". According to "Dream of Tokyo", the customs and feelings of the capital are as follows: "The house of street brokers often only buys food and drinks in shops in the city, not vegetables." I'm talking about some "takeaway" things, which were the most common at that time.

During the Song Dynasty, the economy was not the most prosperous in history, but it was also prosperous, especially in the catering industry. At that time, all the canteens provided services similar to today's "fast food and ordering", such as "order once an hour, duh-ho-ho-ho", which described the take-away service at that time, similar to a group of people and a hungry person today.

At that time, the "takeaway brother" was called "idle Han", and he used to run restaurants and teahouses in his professional affairs, specializing in "wind ham". Such people monopolized food delivery, orders and items.

Of course, all the big hotels have their own "take-away" services, and outsiders are not allowed to take over for fear of problems. Just like Beijing today, it is a one-stop train, and it is also good to pursue responsibility afterwards.

So someone asked? Running errands in ancient times was underdeveloped. Isn't the food cold when it arrives? The answer is: not cold.

In the Song Dynasty, food was kept warm. Compared with today's disposable lunch boxes and plastic bags, ancient containers are used to keep warm. This kind of container is called warm plate, which is not only environmentally friendly, but also exquisite. When keeping food warm, it has two layers with a gap in the middle. When in use, just pour hot water into the interlayer to achieve the heat preservation effect.

According to the book "Meng Lianggu Noodle Restaurant" written by scholar Wu, the take-away list in Song Dynasty is very rich, including "meat soup, hoof flower soup, fish-flavored soup, chicken soup, fish-flavored soup, pork bone clear soup, miscellaneous soup, etc."

Even in summer, there are delicious foods, such as "frozen Zi Yuan, crystal horn, frozen licorice soup, litchi cream, and so on".
