Datang Nongwang

Chapter 347 Years

pot belly.

Can't read and write.

It's okay to eat.

It's like when Li Chongyuan is free, he still teaches Dadu and the others how to read.

Others can learn a few words in a day by doing three times, five times and dividing two.

But when it came to Dadu, he learned three words in five days.

After staying for a few more days, I completely forgot what the three words looked like.

But at the moment Li Chongyuan asked Dadu to raise wild boars, there was really no way for Dadu to do it.

after all.

Apart from eating this product, there is nothing left to eat.

of course.

He still has a handful of strength.

afterwards.

Li Chongyuan had no choice but to find a servant to come over, explained to him for a long time, and wrote another important point about raising wild boars.

"Fourth brother, is it so troublesome to raise wild boars?" Wan'er, who was sitting on the side, frowned after listening to what Li Chongyuan said to the servant, not knowing what she was thinking.

Li Chongyuan looked at it, "is it so easy for you to raise wild boars? Just like we raise chickens, ducks and big white geese, which one is so simple, what else can you do besides making trouble, you just know how to play without helping fourth brother and me." .”

"But I also helped you, the fourth brother. I asked them to help you with the other cousins." Wan'er immediately became unhappy when she heard her fourth brother preaching to her.

When Li Chongyuan heard the girl mentioned Li Yi and the others, he became even more angry, "You still dare to mention this matter, if it weren't for you, would it have turned into such a situation? Would there be so many troubles in Hujiazhuang? What's more, the thousand roast ducks just came to the restaurant, and they followed Yingbinlou to make a bargain, do you know how much less money Yingbinlou will make?"

When it comes to money, mention roast duck.

Wan'er lost her temper immediately.

Of course she knew that Changming Restaurant was the restaurant of Empress Changsun.

But this has already happened, and no one can change it.

Time passed slowly.

In the sky, there are no longer snowflakes.

someday at noon.

Li Chongyuan was sitting in the kitchen, warming the fire while simmering Huaishan.

With pen and notebook in hand, he stared at the fire in a daze.

Li Chongyuan, who was in a daze, had been thinking about the affairs of Hu County in his mind.

two days ago.

Li Chongyuan returned to his home in Chang'an.

With my mother's instructions, if I have time, I have to go to the county seat of Hu County.

Although I have the words, I don't need to go to the county government to handle official business.

But Empress Changsun wanted to check out those shops for herself and make some suggestions.

and.

The three managers also came to Lizhuang yesterday and asked Li Chongyuan for advice.

to this end.

At this time Li Chongyuan was thinking about the three shops of Empress Changsun, how to play them, and how to operate them.

Do business.

Li Chongyuan is not comparable to anyone in modern times.

It can be said.

Li Chongyuan doesn't have the business mind.

In modern times, it is estimated that if a restaurant opens, it is guaranteed that it will pay out to the end.

But if you put it in the present.

Li Chongyuan's knowledge, and what he heard in his previous life, are definitely invincible in the world.

Li Chongyuan was stunned for a long time, and said to himself: "It seems that among the three shops of the Empress, one runs a cloth shop, one runs a grocery store, and the other runs a rice store, so they can work together. And in my room, it is definitely not possible to open a restaurant, it is really a headache."

Just as Li Chongyuan was talking to himself.

Wan'er came back from the outside leading two big dogs.

"Fourth brother, what were you talking about by yourself just now?" Wan'er was curious when she heard Li Chongyuan talking to herself as soon as she entered the kitchen.

Li Chongyuan watched the crazy girl come back mad, and his expression was a little unsightly, "You are not alone every day, either teasing cats and walking dogs, or running around the village, when will you finish reading the books you want me to read?"

"I've finished reading, so can't I go out and play for a while after I've finished reading? Huh!" Wan'er immediately countered.

And this time.

Xiao Hong who followed in also said: "Young Lord, my lady has already finished reading, so I took Lu and the others for a walk."

Ok.

After Li Chongyuan heard what the two said, he didn't say anything more.

As long as this girl finishes reading the book she stipulated, she can play as long as she likes.

Li Chongyuan is a simple person.

This reading is not like other people, who can't put down the book every day.

In addition, Wan'er is a daughter, if she doesn't let go of the book every day, it is estimated that this girl will have to fight with him, the fourth brother.

Wan'er saw that her fourth brother was speechless, a sly look flashed across her face, "Fourth brother, what were you talking to yourself just now? You didn't even answer me."

"What can I say, I'm thinking about our shop, what kind of business should I do, so as to make more money, so that I can make a dowry for you girl." Li Chongyuan replied after thinking for a while.

When Wan'er heard about the store, she immediately regained her spirits, "Fourth brother, let's sell toys, just like the little bear playing drums before, we will definitely make money."

"You would think that selling toys, toys is something that others can easily learn. I just need to sell new toys today. In a few days, the streets will be full of new toys." Li Chongyuan refused without hesitation.

Also really.

Toys really can't make money.

Easy to learn and easy to do.

It just came out here, maybe someone has already started imitating it.

After hearing what her fourth brother said, Wan'er also started to frown her little brows.

Sitting in the kitchen, the brother and sister thought about it for a long time, but they didn't have a firm idea of ​​what the store would sell.

Even after Xiaohong and Qiao Hui came over, they made some suggestions.

It was also rejected by Li Chongyuan.

Qiao Hui said what kind of rice, grain and oil to sell.

Li Chongyuan didn't want to touch this thing.

After all, as long as he touches this thing, he will inevitably be in constant trouble.

And Xiaohong said that she sells rouge and gouache.

Li Chongyuan also refused.

No woman in this family understands this stuff, and no woman can handle it.

The shopkeeper who sells rouge and gouache must deal with women.

Whether it's just the family, or the county government, or Li Chongyuan's second brother, third brother and two brothers, there is no woman who can take charge.

Although the rouge and gouache business is easy to do, it is definitely not what the Li family can do.

"Fourth brother, let's open another restaurant." In the end, Wan'er suggested that Li Chongyuan open another restaurant.

For opening another restaurant.

Li Chongyuan had thought about it.

But I also know that this restaurant definitely cannot be opened more.

One room is enough.

This is what the old lady once said.

And when Wan'er proposed to open another restaurant, Li Chongyuan glanced blankly at Wan'er, "Aniang said that it is enough for a restaurant to have a welcoming building, and it would be bad if there were too many restaurants."

"Fourth brother, what should we do? I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I haven't come up with any good ideas." Wan'er was a little anxious.

Li Chongyuan was silent, staring at the fire.

The matter of the shop.

Since that day, I haven't stopped thinking about it.

every day.

Wan'er can always come up with an idea.

It's like opening a tea shop.

Or a wine shop etc.

But all of them were rejected by Li Chongyuan.

That's it.

The matter of the shop was shelved.

Chang'an City.

At this time, it started to get lively.

Even in such a cold and freezing day, the streets of Chang'an City, the lifangs, and the east and west cities are full of people coming and going.

even.

Even the lanterns began to be hung up.

And this moment.

In Pingkang Square, there are even more colorful lights and countless visitors.

"Have you heard? On the bulletin board outside the Yingbin building, a notice was posted." In a certain brothel, a young gentleman was telling a few friends what he saw.

"What announcement? Brother Ye, tell me quickly."

"That's right, brother Ye, you're trying to whet my appetite."

Mr. Ye, who was surnamed Ye, saw that his friends seemed anxious, and quickly responded: "Hey, didn't you always want to go to the Yingbin Building and taste the good wine called Burning Knife? Now Here's a chance."

"Brother Ye, are you serious about what you say?"

"Brother Ye, the Yingbin Building is a membership system. I can't get in. Couldn't Brother Ye be a member of the Yingbin Building?"

After hearing the words of the man surnamed Ye, several people were shocked and looked forward to it.

Also as Mr. Ye surnamed said.

They are really greedy for burning knives in Yingbin Building.

But I have never had a chance, and I have never had the chance to taste the wine named Burning Knife.

Even if you are rich and not a member of Yingbin Building, you can't drink it.

The current Yingbin Building.

It's not the previous Yingbin building.

In the current Yingbin Building, membership is no longer allowed.

Ever since Yingbin Building and Changming Restaurant became competitive, Yingbin Building's customer source is really less than that of Changming Restaurant.

and.

Those nobles, even members of the Yingbin Building, would choose to go to the Changming Building.

As for why.

Just guess it.

These people must know who is behind the Changming Building.

to this end.

Since Li Chongyuan sent back some burning knives last time, the Yingbin Building has changed from its formerly depressed state. Now, it is really full of guests and friends.

At the same time, even this member is no longer added.

In the words of Qi Huo.

There are too few wines to sell, so we can only stop new members to buy wine and serve old members.

This is not.

Ever since the Yingbin Building had Shaodaozi wine, the business of Changming Building began to decline.

And today.

The Yingbin Building even posted a notice, so that whether tourists or wealthy people, after seeing this notice, they would all be overjoyed.

At this moment, what Ye Langjun said made everyone's faces rushing with anticipation.

Seeing what all his friends said, Mr. Ye Lang shook his head lightly, "No, no, Mr. Ye doesn't have the money to go to any member of the Yingbin Building, but what the announcement of the Yingbin Building said , within five days of the New Year's Day, the Yingbin Building will no longer have membership restrictions, and all guests can eat and drink in the Yingbin Building."

"Is it true?"

"Brother Ye is telling the truth?"

In Pingkang Square.

It can be said that such a news is spreading everywhere.

Even in front of the Yingbin Building, there were quite a few people around, looking at a notice on that column.

And this time.

The West Inner Garden of the Palace.

"Guanyin maidservant, the New Year's Eve will be here in a few days, are you ready for this year?" Li Shimin returned to West Inner Garden after finishing his official duties.

Empress Changsun bowed her head and said: "Erlang, everything that needs to be prepared is ready, and I will send someone to the various houses in a while."

"Well, okay, Wang Li, you will send some palace servants later, and the eunuchs will send some annual gifts to the ministers." After Li Shimin heard the words, he gave another order to Wang Li who was not far away.

Wang Li, who has got the words, should go down.

Shortly thereafter.

Many people came out of the palace.

There are female officials and palace ladies.

There are servants, eunuchs, palace people and so on.

The teams of people, each performing their duties, headed for each Lifang one after another.

Such a large number of people came out of the palace, and they all knew what they knew.

This is because the palace has given some new year gifts to the clans, nobles, and ministers.

Day two.

Li Chongyuan, who was far away in Li Zhuang, also received the New Year gift from the palace.

"It's New Year's Eve? Why so fast?" Li Chongyuan finally realized after sending off the team of palace personnel.

Wan'er, however, was overjoyed, "Fourth brother, shall we go back to Chang'an to celebrate the New Year with mother? I have to go back and get ready."

"Then hurry up and get ready, fourth brother, I have to clean up." After Li Chongyuan heard the sound, he called Qiao Hui and the others to help.

Li Chongyuan stayed in Li Zhuang for too long.

It's been so long that I forgot that it's almost New Years Eve.

in fact.

Li Chongyuan has been busy thinking about other things recently, and he didn't notice at all that this year's festival is coming soon.

As for the old lady of my family, no one was sent to inform their siblings to return to Chang'an.

This made Li Chongyuan almost forget such an important day.

Furthermore.

The village properties in Lizhuang basically haven't changed much whether it's New Year's Day or other days.

after all.

One word, poor.

Although the villagers in Lizhuang are poor.

But this year it is rare to earn a lot of money, and at the same time, the food can be eaten freely.

This year, it is estimated that it will be very smooth, grand and full of laughter.

Come on.

This year.

It's not the first day of the first month.

The first day of the first month is the first day of the year.

In the current era, the day of the year is the beginning of spring, and the beginning of spring is the year.

And before Han.

The day of the year is the first day of the year.

After the Qin Dynasty unified the six countries before the Han Dynasty, the first day of the year was set on the first day of October in winter.

and so.

The date of the year is the first day of October.

Further on.

This year's day is also different, there is the first day of October, the first day of November, and the first day of December.

Of course, there is also the first day of the first month.

In the first year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the first day of the year was officially designated as the first day of the first lunar month.

Although there were changes in a certain dynasty and a certain generation, it finally returned to the first day of the first lunar month.

And the origin of the Spring Festival.

It was after the Revolution of [-] that Yuan Shikai approved the first day of the first lunar month as the Spring Festival, which was implemented in [-]. Since then, it has been regarded as the Chinese New Year and changed to the Spring Festival, which is also the beginning of the lunar calendar, that is, the beginning of the year. .

After the founding of the New China, the old summer calendar was not changed to the lunar calendar until 1970. The first day of the first month of the summer calendar is the Spring Festival.

Li Chongyuan and Wan'er packed up their things.

Get in the carriage, leave from Li Zhuang, and prepare to return to Chang'an for the New Year.

And this trip.

Except for Li Chongyuan and his brother and sister who went back.

Go to eight of them, Qiao Hui and others.

Dozens of people will leave Lizhuang together and return to Chang'an.

Either celebrate the New Year in the family, or celebrate the New Year in the county government.
