The most popular dishes on this table are undoubtedly the plate of deep-fried peanuts and the deep-fried turkey.

Hongyun and the others had never eaten deep-fried peanuts before, so when their chopsticks picked up a fried red peanut and put them in their mouths, the peanuts' unique aroma after being deep-fried immediately conquered them. Their taste buds.

　　Fried peanuts, even if they are put in later generations, will definitely rank first among all the dishes that go with alcohol. Whether it is pig's ears or pig's trotter, or fennel beans or cucumbers, they are far inferior to the status of deep-fried peanuts in the food and drink!

　　 This dish has been popular in China for so many years, and it has been firmly holding the position of the leader in the dish, which is enough to prove the charm of this dish.

　　 So, even after traveling through hundreds of years of time and space, when Shi Xiong took out the boss of this dish, this dish still conquered everyone present.

　　 all say that the truth is seen in simplicity, and this dish complies with this sentence.

　　The peeled peanuts are put in warm oil and rolled a few times, the color changes a little, and the fragrance comes out and you can start the pot. The oil temperature should not be too high, the peanuts should not be fried in the oil for too long, and the peanuts should not be cooked after the peanuts are completely discolored, otherwise the peanuts will be fried.

　　 The fried peanuts are sprinkled with a pinch of refined salt, and nothing else is needed. The taste will make all the gluttons endlessly eaten

　　 There are not many fried peanuts, so this dish is the fastest to be eliminated. Well, how fast is it? Shi Xiong just took a spoon and scooped two spoons for Bai Yun, and he used his chopsticks to pick up two peanuts, and then found that the plate was completely empty.

　　 Another fried turkey is also very popular.

The turkey, a poultry, was tamed by the Indians a long time ago. Although the Mexicans were the first to tame turkeys, in this era, turkeys have become a common breeding among Indian tribes in both South America and North America. Poultry.

　　 To be honest, the meat of turkey is not as good as the broiler chicken raised in the farms of later generations. However, this kind of poultry is large, weighing more than ten catties per chicken, and it is very pleasant to eat. It can play a good role in filling the hunger of the Indians who lack oil and water in their stomachs.

　　 This turkey was raised by Hongyun’s friend Momocao, and Shixiong traded it for a box of tofu plus a pound of peanut oil.

　　 Later generations eat turkey by roasting it in the oven, but now let alone the oven, there is no necessary seasoning, so this turkey can’t be eaten by hand.

　　 So Shixiong changed to another approach.

After slaughtering the turkey, pluck the hair and remove the internal organs, then use a knife to shave off the meat from the turkey body, cut into chicken fillets, then marinate with onion, salt, allspice, and rosemary overnight, and finally put it A fried chicken fillet came into the frying pan.

　　 Although it is not wrapped in breadcrumbs, the fried chicken fillet is still very delicious.

　　 The chicken thighs are chopped into several sections and marinated, and then fried separately, the chicken wings are also marinated.

　　 Anyway, such fried chicken, drumsticks and wings are also very popular in these dishes.

　　 Whether it's Hongyun, Thunder Eagle, or Ferguson, I really haven't eaten turkey like this.

　　Especially Lieutenant Ferguson, after tasting the fried turkey, he began to express emotion: "Eating this familiar turkey reminds me of Thanksgiving."

　　 "Thanksgiving? Is it the kind of holiday that you English celebrate in Beaver Month (November) every year?" Hong Yun asked curiously, and Shi Xiong translated.

　　 "Well, what you said is right and wrong." Seeing Hong Yun's puzzled look, Ferguson continued to explain, Shi Xiong continued to translate between the two sides.

　　 "There is no Thanksgiving in our native Britain. Thanksgiving is a holiday established by those immigrants themselves. Therefore, there is this holiday only among immigrants from the New World, and there is no such holiday on the European continent."

　　 seems to be such a translation that makes Hong Yun feel very uncomfortable. Hong Yun asked Shi Xiong: "Dali Xiong, do you know this festival?"

　　 Ishikuma nodded.

　　 "Then tell us about it." Kuaima said from the side.

　　 For festivals, no matter what country it is, these simple Indians like it very much.

　　 It's okay for Ferguson not to mention this Thanksgiving. When it comes to this Thanksgiving, Shi Xiong immediately feels that he can't eat it anymore. Others don't know the origin of Thanksgiving, but he knows it very well.

　　 Although on the surface, this Thanksgiving Day is all kinds of tall, but in fact, behind this Thanksgiving Day represents endless killing, how can Stone Bear be interested in this holiday?

　　 But looking at them, they all wanted to know the origin of this festival, so Shixiong resisted the discomfort in his heart and began to explain to them.

"Speaking of this Thanksgiving Day, we have to mention a group of very special people. About two hundred years ago, that is, about 1550 in the epoch of the Old World, a group of people like this appeared in England on the other side of the ocean. People, this group of people are extremely pious believers. They believe that the Bible is the only highest authority. No church or individual can be the interpreter and defender of traditional authority. This group of people demanded the removal of the remains of Catholicism in the State Church of England. Reformers. These people are called Puritans."

“In the beginning, the power of the Puritans was still very large, but about 170 years ago, the power of the Puritans in England was greatly reduced. They were subjected to political repression and religious persecution by the King of England and the Church of England, so some Puritans were Forced to leave the English Church."

"About one hundred and thirty years ago, on September 6th in 1620 AD, a ship named Mayflower was 195 meters long, 795 meters wide, had a draft of 335 meters and a displacement of 10 tons. The masted Gallen boat carried a total of 102 people composed of 35 Puritans and 67 non-Puritans from England, and finally crossed the Atlantic Ocean to Plymouth, Massachusetts, which was the Massachusetts at that time. The coastal area where you live."

Hongyun interrupted and said, "I know that when my mother was alive, she told me about the persecution of the Massachusetts by the Wasichs. My mother said that the group of Wasichs who arrived in the Massachusetts territory back then They were not sent by the King of England. They acted alone. At that time, the chief of the Massachusetts tribe Massassod warmly welcomed these Vasicchus and gave them how to hunt, fish and grow corn. And pumpkins. If it weren't for Chief Massassod, all these Vasitus would have died there."

Shixiong nodded and said: "Yes, Kabru is right. With the help of Chief Massassod, these people have established a foothold in that area and named the area Plymouth. To commemorate the British city of Plymouth. This group of people gained a firm foothold in Plymouth. The crops they planted in the second year were harvested with the help of the Massachusetts people. In order to express their gratitude to the Massachusetts people, these tiles The Western Chus decided to hold a celebration event in the latter part of the Moon of the Beaver."

"With the joint efforts of these Puritans and the Massachusetts people led by Chief Massassod, this celebration event was very successful. It lasted three days before it ended. Later at this time of the year, the Wassichus would meet. Holding such a celebration has slowly developed into a Thanksgiving Day for Vasicchus."

　　 Hongyun asked, "Is this Thanksgiving actually just to show our gratitude to our aborigines? Well, or to say it is to the Massachusetts people?"

　　 "Thank you?" Shi Xiong didn't know how to answer this question

　　 There was a colleague gathering in the previous life, and Shixiong also participated. As a result, the gathering day happened to coincide with Thanksgiving Day in the United States, which was the fourth Thursday in November of that winter.

　　 What can the big masters of the museum do if they gather together for a party? In addition to drinking bragging is bragging than drinking.

　　 I don’t know how to blow, and a colleague suddenly said that today seems to be Thanksgiving.

　　 So a group of people started bragging around Thanksgiving again. Anyway, they are all engaged in museums, and they all understand history, so the colleagues who have drunk a lot of wine began to talk about how Thanksgiving came about.

　　 To be honest, before that party, Shi Xiong only knew that the United States and Canada had Thanksgiving, and knew that he needed to eat turkey during Thanksgiving, but he really didn't know how this Thanksgiving came.

　　 After all, whether it is the United States or Canada, the country where you live is still so far away from the Pacific Ocean. Besides, I still don’t understand the festivals in my own country. Who cares about the festivals abroad?

　　 Shixiong remembered a lot of wine he drank that day, and he clearly remembered that he also made a remark on Thanksgiving, a holiday of crooked nuts.

　　 said at the time that since it is Thanksgiving, it must be a holiday born out of gratitude. It's like Christmas is to celebrate the birth of Jesus, so it is called Christmas, so Thanksgiving must be set up to commemorate someone who makes Americans or Canadians very grateful.

　　 This statement is similar to the meaning of most colleagues, because most of the colleagues who drank that day held this opinion.

　　 Old Liu from the administrative office of the result hall despised a group of people.

　　 Everyone respects Lao Liu, who is very senior, but respect belongs to respect. If you are senior, you can't just despise people casually.

　　 So everyone has been asking Lao Liu to explain why he despises these people, otherwise he will fine him 300 cups.

　　 Old Liu drank too much that day, so he spoke a paragraph with his tongue out, which Shi Xiong remembers even now.

　　 Old Liu seemed to chant a poem: Once upon a time, an Indian chief named Massassod saw a poisonous snake that was freezing to death, so he put it in his arms, and the poisonous snake woke up and had a party with the chief. Later, the poisonous snake killed the chief’s eldest son Wamsuta, and also cut off the head of the second son Philip and hung it for many years, then killed the chief’s tribe, and sold the second son’s wife and children to the Caribbean and Bermuda. Go to be a slave and rob the chief's land. In the end, the poisonous snake ate and drank enough and decided to commemorate this fool chief and his own good luck, so it set a festival called ‘Thanksgiving’!

At that time, Lao Liu used a very tactful tone when he said a paragraph, but all the colleagues in this room did not know how to do it. After listening to this passage, they felt chilled, as if countless souls were pouring out of the darkness. Whispered in my ear

　　 Don't look at this group of people drinking and bragging, but in fact they are all serious and senior intellectuals, otherwise they would not be able to engage in the museum industry.

　　 Therefore, although Lao Liu's remarks are so gloomy that people don't understand, everyone knows that Lao Liu is talking about it by reason.

　　 So on the next day, Shixiong decided to figure out what the Thanksgiving was all about.

　　The information is readily available. Even if there is no information, there are some information about Thanksgiving on the Internet.

　　 I didn't know the result, but I was shocked when I checked it.

Yes, the origin of this Thanksgiving Day really originated from the one hundred people who were drawn to the New World of North America by the Mayflower. They were indeed helped by the loyal and honest Chief Massassod and the people of the Massachusetts tribe. Plymouth gained a firm foothold and developed Massachusetts into the largest colony in North America.

　　 This is how the famous Boston developed.

Moreover, the more than one hundred British colonists indeed joined Chief Massassod and 90 Massachusetts Indians on one day in November of the following year for a grand celebration party. The party lasted three days in total. , This festival has indeed been preserved

　　 If this Thanksgiving Day really comes this way, then this holiday is really a very beautiful holiday.

　　 Thanksgiving, this is a necessary virtue for any intelligent creature. If a person does not know how to be grateful, then he is not worthy of being called a human being, that is a beast!

　　 is wrong, saying that all the animals have raised him, because among the animals there are crows feeding back, and lambs kneeling. People who don't know how to be grateful are really inferior to animals.

　　 Maybe the people of the Massachusetts tribe under the leadership of Chief Massassod did help those people, but the fact is that there is no such record among the local Indians, and the local Indians do not recognize this legend.

　　According to the official records of the New Englanders, the true origin of Thanksgiving was in 1637, not 1621, the second year after the Mayflower arrived in the North American New World.

　　 The official records clearly record the fact that as the Mayflower gained a foothold in Plymouth, a steady stream of British immigrants came to the New World, and with Plymouth as the center, they began to spread rapidly inland.

　　 It is as if these immigrants quickly expanded to the later Connecticut territory, where it is no longer the territory of the Massachusetts, but the territory of the Pecot.

　　 At that time, there is a definite record that there were more than 8,000 Pecots at that time. But the arrival of the British colonists did not bring anything else, but they brought smallpox, plague and even the Black Death to the New World of North America.

As a result, in 1637, there were fewer than 1,500 Pecots, who originally numbered more than 8,000. These poor Pecots were not conquered by force by the British colonists. However, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Humiliated and died under the various plague viruses brought by these British people.

　　 It is estimated that this is probably the earliest "Resident Evil".

William Bradford, who once served as Governor of Plymouth, clearly records how the New England whites slaughtered the native Indians in his book "The History of Plymouth Planting". Those recorded words made the stone bear read. Feel the creeps.

　　 And in 1637, in order to celebrate the successful conquest of the local Indians by the whites of the New England area, the first Thanksgiving was officially held! The purpose of the Thanksgiving Day turned out to be to celebrate the massacre of the Pecots by New England whites.

　　 In 1703, the puritans among the immigrants even decided in the Legislative Assembly that for every Indian killed and scalp he would be rewarded forty pounds. Later, because of some things, it was changed to reward one hundred pounds for killing an adult man, and fifty pounds for women and children.

　　 This is the true origin of Thanksgiving!

　　 In fact, Thanksgiving was only popular in Massachusetts and Connecticut at the beginning, and it was not popular in other British colonies. It was not until the establishment of the United States that Thanksgiving was finally designated as the only local holiday in the United States.

　　 So, Hong Yun's question, Shi Xiong really doesn't know how to answer.

　　 He didn't dare to tell them the truth about Thanksgiving. He guessed that even Lieutenant Ferguson might not know the truth about Thanksgiving. If you really tell them the truth about Thanksgiving, Stone Bear is worried that Lieutenant Ferguson will be killed by them immediately.
