Great Tang princess

Chapter 35 Make Money
It feels really good to sit around and eat hot pot as a family, especially in winter, when you eat hot pot, you will be sweating all over.

But still the same sentence, hot pot without chili really has no soul!

While eating, Li Yuechen secretly swore in his heart that when he made glass to make money by himself in the future, the first thing he would do was to set up a fleet to find peppers on the other side of the ocean.

It is best to bring back potatoes and corn, so that Datang's food will be more abundant and the output will increase.

But now...

Li Yuechen looked up, because the family didn't know what chili was, so even the white soup hot pot was very happy.

Especially Li Zhi, his face was flushed and his head was sweating, but he was still eating big mouthfuls.

The other elder brothers also had great appetites, and Li Xian even took out a folding fan to fan himself while eating.

My old lady Wu Zetian still maintains the majesty and demeanor that she should have, but she also shakes her hands and fans from time to time.

As the saying goes, the smoke and fire in the world are the most soothing to the hearts of ordinary people.

Even if you are the emperor and queen, you are still a mortal!

Seeing the couple's appearance, Li Yuechen laughed from the bottom of his heart.

Then he picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of cooked mutton and put it in his mouth, but when he put the chopsticks in his mouth, he felt a pain in his mouth.

"Ok!"

Li Zhi turned his head: "Chen'er, what's wrong?"

Li Yuechen raised his head in some doubts, reached into his mouth and touched his front teeth: "Baby...it seems to be changing teeth..."

"This is a good thing!" Li Zhi smiled, "But you should pay attention to it in the next few days."

"En." Li Yuechen nodded to show that he understood.

Now the teeth have just loosened, and they cannot be pulled out forcibly, Li Yuechen just needs to eat carefully.

After eating the hot pot, I went back to Chengxiang Hall, and happened to meet Shangguan Wan'er, and chatted a few words by the way.

"Did Your Highness have any loose teeth today?" Shangguan Wan'er looked surprised, "So is Wan'er."

"Really?" Li Yuechen smiled, "That's quite a coincidence."

Shangguan Wan'er knelt beside her, and suddenly raised her head: "Is your Highness's loose teeth up or down?"

"Teeth."

"When the time comes, can I bury my teeth with my maidservant?" Shangguan Wan'er asked.

Li Yuechen didn't know what it meant: "Buried teeth?"

After Shangguan Wan'er's explanation, he finally understood.It turns out that the lower teeth should be thrown into high places, such as the roof, while the upper teeth are usually buried in the ground.

"Okay!" Li Yuechen waved her hand, although she herself didn't care much about this, but since Shangguan Wan'er brought it up, it doesn't matter to play with her.

……

At the end of October, the weather has completely entered winter.

Although it hasn't snowed yet, the white mist sprayed from the mouth with the breath has become more and more obvious.

After practicing in the morning, Li Yuechen returned to Chengxiang Hall, felt the cold air filling the hall, and looked at the charcoal fire plate next to Shangguan Waner's table, thinking about the method of using the briquette stove.

It is actually very simple to build a stove. The question is how should the pipeline be routed?
This era is very particular about feng shui. Li Zhi may not agree to placing a stove in the hall abruptly, and there are long pipes.

Not to mention the relatively large space in the hall itself, Li Yuechen expressed doubts whether the heat of a small stove could radiate the entire hall.

Except for the briquette stove, I have seen that kind of fireplace when I was skiing in Europe before.

To be honest, the fireplace feels much better than the heating effect of the air conditioner and the heater, after all, it is a real fire.

But the problem is that the Daming Palace is a wooden structure, and burning a fireplace in this kind of place... is not the way to die.

With Li Yuechen's ability, there are only two kinds that can be thought of, but it's a pity that they can't be used in the palace.

The outside is okay, after all, there are already brick houses at this time.But the mainstream is still wooden houses.

Most of the bricks in this period were used for large-scale projects such as city walls.

Forget it, let's leave it at that for now.

If we can open a residence outside in the future, we must build a brick house to live in, at least to ensure that it is not cold in winter.

Shangguan Wan'er, who was writing in front of the table, saw Li Yuechen sitting cross-legged next to the charcoal brazier with a pensive look, and couldn't help asking: "What is your Highness thinking?"

"Thinking about useless things..." Li Yuechen stood up, it's still too early to think about these things.

When he came to the desk, he asked in a low voice, "Wan'er, did you expect to eat peaches?"

"Peach?" Shangguan Wan'er turned her head curiously, "It's already winter, how can there be peaches?"

"hey-hey."

Li Yuechen smiled mysteriously, stood up and ran to the corner behind Chengxiang Hall, picked out one of the cans he made in the first batch, and came to the table.

"Xiao He, bring two pairs of chopsticks! And a knife."

"Here!"

After a while, Xiao He brought what Li Yuechen wanted.

After picking off the sealing wax on the mouth of the can with a knife, a "pop" sound was clearly heard.

Hearing this voice, Li Yuechen knew in his heart that it was probably done.

Then I opened the cork, and sure enough, the orange-yellow peaches were soaked in sugar water, and there was no sign of mold at all.

"Wow, it really is!" Shangguan Wan'er next to her opened her eyes wide.

Li Yuechen smiled, first leaned close to the mouth of the jar and smelled it, but there was no smell of spoilage, then picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

The sweetness dipped in sugar water mixed with the taste of peach itself fills the mouth instantly.

Li Yuechen couldn't help but take a deep breath: "It's comfortable... Wan'er, come and eat!"

Shangguan Wan'er nodded: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Then he picked up a piece of peach with chopsticks and took a bite, his little face was filled with happiness in an instant.

After all, it is unbelievable to be able to eat canned food in this season.

Li Yuechen asked Xiao He to take two cans and open them, but they were not broken either.

So he asked Fulai to take the two cans and go to the Hall of Yanying together.

……

Entering the hall, I saw Li Zhi lying on the rocking chair, spinning the health ball in his hand, talking to Wu Zetian about something.

Seeing Li Yuechen coming in, Li Zhi burst into a smile: "Chen'er, come quickly and talk to me."

Li Yuechen came to the reclining chair with a small jump: "How is Grandpa today?"

"It's okay." Li Zhi smiled.

"That's good. Today, my son is here to give my grandparents a small gift."

With that said, Li Yuechen waved to Fulai who was outside: "Eunuch Fu, quickly bring it in!"

Li Zhi stood up from the reclining chair curiously: "Oh? Then we have to take a closer look at what it is."

Wu Zetian behind the table also put down his pen and walked over, wanting to see what it was.

Fulai put the two porcelain jars on the table, opened the cork, and the orange-yellow peaches appeared in front of his eyes.

"Peach?"

Li Zhi was a little dazed: "Why are there peaches in this season?"

Wu Zetian next to him was also a little curious. He lowered his head and smelled it, and found that it was not rotten, it was indeed a real peach.

Li Yuechen lay on the rocking chair with a proud face: "Hey, my grandfather said that he wanted to eat lychees a few days ago, but the place of origin is far away. When the child returned home, he thought about ways to preserve the fruit for a long time. This peach was my grandfather's gift in the first half of the year." The batch that came out is still not spoiled."

Li Zhi asked Zhang Chengxin to bring two pairs of chopsticks, and ate a piece by himself, while Wu Zetian also picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, feeling a little unbelievable in his eyes.

Li Yuechen, who was lying on the rocking chair, raised his legs and made an airy look: "How is it? Isn't the baby amazing?"

"Hahaha... amazing!" Li Zhi laughed and lifted her up, "As expected of my daughter! Hahaha..."

Wu Zetian next to him had a slightly dignified expression: "Your Majesty, this method is very useful!"

"En." Li Zhi picked up his daughter and nodded, "Chen'er, are you willing to contribute this method?"

Li Yuechen shook his head: "I don't want to!"

"You..." Wu Zetian next to her was about to open her mouth to teach her a lesson, but was stopped by Li Zhi with a wave of his hand.

He turned his head and asked, "Why is Chen'er unwilling?"

"Because the boy wants to open a shop in the city and sell this item to make a lot of money!"

As he said that, Li Yuechen opened his arms, expressing greatness.

Wu Zetian next to her frowned: "As a royal princess, you actually want to do that lowly businessman thing?"

Li Yuechen looked at her: "My boy recently went to the court, and I always heard from the officials that there is no money for disaster relief, and this matter makes parents worry every day. Since they don't solve it, then the boy will find a way to make money. As long as there is money, Grandparents don’t have to worry about this, so what about lowliness? I don’t care about that!”

Hearing what she said, Wu Zetian's frown relaxed, and his tone softened.

"Chen'er, Aniang knows that you are filial, but you are a royal princess, so you can't..."

"No problem!" Li Zhi waved his hand directly, preventing her from continuing, "Which one of the royal relatives does not have a private shop? It is said to be lowly, but is it true that everyone does it?"

"Your Majesty, this is different..."

"I know!" Li Zhi nodded, but then laughed, "Just like them, Chen'er doesn't have to show up in person. Just treat it as a joke!"

"..." Wu Zetian didn't know what to say.

Li Zhi put his daughter down: "Chen'er, do what you want, I will support you!"

"Grandpa is mighty!" Li Yuechen raised his hands and jumped on the spot, then stuck out his tongue at Wu Zetian with a smile.

Now that the emperor had given the order, Wu Zetian didn't say anything, but warned Li Yuechen: "You must not come forward in person on this matter! Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, my son understands!" Li Yuechen came to her with a smile, "My son will earn a lot of money, so that my parents won't worry about it anymore!"

Li Zhi next to him grinned: "Okay, then I'll just wait!"

From the look on his face, he knew that he didn't take it seriously at all. After all, it's just a can, how much money can he make?

Of course, Li Yuechen knew better, what is canned food?Appetizers only!

When I get out glass, refined salt and other things, I will let you know what a state-owned enterprise in the Tang Dynasty is!

Having said that, Li Yuechen turned his head and said, "Is there someone trustworthy, Eunuch Fu?"

When Fulai heard this, his heart immediately burst into joy. It was the princess who wanted to hand over this matter to him!
So he immediately saluted and said: "His Royal Highness, I have a nephew who has been in private school for a few years, he can settle accounts, he is trustworthy!"

Li Yuechen nodded: "Then I will leave this matter to you. Collect fruits next year, and open a shop in West Market at the end of the year."

"Here!"

Speaking of this, Li Yuechen raised his head: "The money I earned is to solve the troubles for my parents! You can't be greedy!"

"Ouch!"

Fulai hurriedly knelt on the ground, with a terrified expression on his face: "You can't even borrow ten courage from your slave! Otherwise, how can you be worthy of His Highness's trust?"

"Okay, okay, get up!" Li Yuechen ran over and pulled his arm to make him stand up, "You will go to Lingnan in the next year, collect lychees locally, and make them ready. Next year, you must let your parents eat lychees!"

"Here!" Fulai quickly agreed.

After Li Zhi and his wife finished explaining the matter, Li Yuechen said hello and turned to leave.

After she left, Li Zhi sat down with a smile: "Chen'er is quite proficient at controlling subordinates! Knowing that I will warn you in my name...you really are talented!"

"Your Majesty dotes on her so much, and he is not afraid of spoiling her!" Wu Zetian sat down angrily beside her.

"Don't worry, Chen'er is born smart, she is indeed a talented person!" Li Zhi smiled and picked up a piece of peach and fed it to her mouth, "Come, eat peach!"

"Don't eat!" Wu Zetian cast a glance at him and turned his head.

"Okay, okay..." Li Zhi comforted at the side: "In this way, if Chen'er makes a mistake in the future, I will definitely teach her a lesson! Is this feasible? Come, come, eat peaches!"

Wu Zetian turned her head and glanced at him. Although she knew that he must be comforting herself, she still opened her mouth and took a bite.

……

After half a month, the first deciduous teeth of Shangguan Wan'er and Li Yuechen finally fell out one after the other.

The two came to the edge of the Taiye Pool hand in hand, and threw the teeth wrapped with red thread several times into it together.

Now Li Yuechen can see a missing tooth when he smiles, and he still speaks out of breath, which is very funny.

Even the elder brothers couldn't help laughing at her when they saw her.

Of course Li Yuechen didn't care about these things, but seeing her elder brothers laughing at her with unflattering faces, she still couldn't help but have the idea of ​​punching someone.

But when Li Hong took the can she gave to other brothers to show off, the second brother Li Xian came to admit his mistake.

"Oh, Yuechen, give me some!" Li Xian begged pitifully.

Li Xian next to him also looked pitiful.

"Hmph, I won't give it!" Li Yuechen turned his head, "Who told you to laugh at me!"

"Oh, brother, I admit your mistake! As an elder brother, we shouldn't laugh at Yuechen!" Li Xian pulled the third child and saluted solemnly.

The fourth son, Li Lun, looked around and rubbed his face to make his smile less obvious.

"Yuechen, since the two elder brothers know they were wrong, let's share some."

Li Yuechen crossed his arms in front of his chest: "Since the four brothers have spoken, let's share some."

Li Xian raised his head and ran over with a smile on his face: "Haha, I knew Yuechen was the best! I can finally eat some fruits this winter! Don't worry, Yuechen, if someone bullies you in the future, please report the name of your second brother." !"

These words almost made Li Yuechen turn around and punch him.

Who dares to bully me?I don't know where the last one is buried in the wilderness!
But the complaints were the ones, and in the end, he and Li Xian shared some canned food.

Besides, the brothers usually love her very much, which should be done.
