I'm dressed in ancient times, I have a house, electricity, and a system pet.

Chapter 374 This is a sausage stand, not the imperial court!

"Uh, wait a minute, did I understand correctly? The 'fairyland' you're talking about, is it in Anzhou, a thousand miles away?"

"Heavens! Is there really such a convenient thing? In the future, it will only take a few hours to travel from the capital to Anzhou?"

"Could I have misheard? How come no one in court mentioned such an important matter today?"

"My goodness! When did such a commotion occur in Anzhou? Why hasn't the capital heard a single word?"

……

The officials erupted into a commotion again, shouting and yelling at each other, making Bai Mengran frown and her temples throb.

She thought to herself, "Do these people think my sausage stand is some kind of imperial court? They've started arguing like cockfighting over the same topic..."

Is this how the Emperor is treated on a daily basis? Every day he is drowned in this overwhelming barrage of spittle, listening to the endless chatter of the court officials.

It seems this tastes really not that great...

However, she still responded with a smile to the last adult's question.

"My lord, please don't worry. Perhaps the speed of development there is faster than the speed of transmitting messages, which is why the message is lagging behind!"

Besides, don't you gentlemen already know that now?

Ok?

The adult who had questioned whether he had heard anything about it was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

Was he rebuffed by this girl for asking his question?

And the way she said it... it sounded strangely familiar, like I'd heard it somewhere before...

However, the officials' attention was quickly diverted to the promotional posters that had been distributed to them.

The poster was exquisitely made and its content was more detailed than ever before. As they flipped through it, their eyes grew brighter and their emotions became more excited. They even wished they could immediately take the poster back to the capital and report it to the emperor.

The emperor often reprimanded them for spouting clichés and platitudes during court sessions, saying they had no value or originality whatsoever.

However, this novel matter is truly worthy of being reported and discussed in the imperial court, and it is clearly closely related to the livelihood of the people.

With such a crucial matter now in their hands, the officials' minds immediately began to race.

They were all pondering whether they should immediately go to the palace to pay their respects after finishing their grilled sausages, so as to quickly report the matter to the Emperor.

The officials who arrived later gradually reached Chaoshi Lane. They were lucky to get a free ride and didn't have to bother looking for anything.

As soon as I looked up, I saw a stall a few steps away, where a group of colleagues had gathered early in the morning, each with a grilled sausage in hand, eating with great relish, oil droplets still sticking to the corners of their mouths...

The sausage stand was bustling with people, a scene so popular that it left the other vendors around it completely bewildered.

"Wait, what's going on? This is outrageous!"

One vendor couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Can anyone explain why this stall has attracted so many distinguished customers so quickly, since it's only been open for the first time?"

These officials seem to have made a pact; they're all crowding around this sausage stand, what are they after?

But the aroma of this grilled sausage is really tempting!

The nearby vendors' mouths watered at the smell of the aroma, their throats bobbed, and their calls to sell became weak and listless, as if they had lost all interest in the activity.

But seeing these usually high-ranking figures obediently queuing up to buy them, how could they dare to cut in line and buy one to satisfy their craving?

Upon hearing that the stall owner would only be there for half an hour, the other vendors breathed a sigh of relief, their worries finally put to rest.

"Setting up a stall temporarily is fine, but if we were to stay here long-term, all our business would probably be taken away, and we'd have no choice but to pack up and move elsewhere..."

At this moment, Bai Mengran glanced up and was surprised to find several women dressed in official robes approaching from a distance!

They walked briskly together, heading straight for the sausage stand.

At that moment, several officials who were eating grilled sausages and chatting enthusiastically saw them and immediately smiled warmly, walking over to greet them.

He enthusiastically recommended his favorite grilled sausage flavor to the ladies-in-waiting, describing it with gestures and words, giving a very detailed and eloquent introduction.

Upon seeing this, Bai Mengran raised an eyebrow, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.

She raised her eyebrows slightly and walked towards Xiao Yi's side, wanting to get closer and listen to what they were whispering about.

"Lord Ye, look, there really is a sausage stand here! Why don't we buy some and try it out?"

A young-looking female official, with a hint of excitement in her eyes, turned to the older female official beside her and said...

The two stood together, and their demeanor and mannerisms subtly revealed a superior-subordinate relationship.

The older Lord Ye nodded slightly, a faint smile playing on his lips, and said, "Since you're all here, then try this flavor."

"Master Li, why don't we buy more and share some with the others in the Imperial Kitchen so they can all try this new thing?"

"Alright, Lord Ye, you're so generous! I'll just buy the quantities I need."

The young head chef, Li, replied crisply with a smile on his face.

Having said that, Manager Li turned and walked towards Xiao Yi, his eyes sweeping over the grilled sausages. After a moment's thought, he spoke:

"Girl, give me twenty grilled sausages!"

That kind of attitude did give off a certain air of wealth and power.

After she finished packing up her sausages, a tall and robust female official behind her stepped forward and spoke up, "Give me some more sausages, fifty of them, please!"

Upon hearing the number, Bai Mengran's eyes lit up, and she quickly agreed:

"Alright, thank you for your patronage, Lady. Let me give this gentleman some more as a token of our appreciation."

Xiao Yi was also adept at handling situations. He deftly picked up a bamboo skewer, steadily forked a sausage, and presented it to the female official with both hands, smiling as he said:

"Sir, please have a taste first. I'll pack some more for you to take away right away."

"Ah, thank you both very much! I won't stand on ceremony..."

Having already obtained the fragrant grilled sausage, Zheng Peiyu simply couldn't resist. She brought it close to her mouth, blew on it to cool it down, and took a bite.

Instantly, her eyes lit up with surprise and delight, and she exclaimed sincerely, "It's really delicious!"

Li Zhangshan, who had just finished shopping and was enjoying her meal, couldn't help but chime in. Seeing that she had bought even more, she asked curiously:

"Is Doctor Zheng buying so much at once to reward his subordinates?"

Zheng Peiyu was a secretary in the Ministry of War's Armory Department, in charge of the logistics of female soldiers.

She is straightforward and unpretentious, and her eating habits also reveal a certain boldness.

She casually wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, nodded, and a gentle expression appeared on her face as she said:

"Yes, buy more to take back to my female soldiers so they can all try some. They're all such gluttons!"
