During the Dajing Dynasty, the world had been peaceful for thirty years. The people were recuperating and recuperating, agriculture and commerce were gradually prospering, and the people's customs were simple and honest, but they also hid the warmth and competition in the fireworks of the market.
The dynasty was based on agriculture and valued literature over commerce, but it did not hinder the prosperity of private commerce. Restaurants and restaurants were spread all over the countryside and towns. It was a good era for craftsmen to establish themselves. The hierarchy is clear, from villages, towns, counties, prefectures to the capital Tianqi City, forming a complete world from bottom to top. The people at the bottom mostly rely on farming and small businesses to make a living, and food, clothing and clothing are their greatest expectations; the middle-level merchants, squires, and petty officials control their livelihood; the upper-level are officials, aristocratic families, and dignitaries, who hold power and resources and influence the situation.
The common currency is silver taels and copper coins, and one tael of silver can be exchanged for one pound of money. An ordinary farmer's income is only a few taels a year, and one or two cents can be exchanged for one meal. The ingredients are mainly rice noodles, grains, vegetables and fruits, pigs, chickens, fish and shrimps. The seasonings are simple, the cooking methods are crude, and the taste is far from exquisite.
