Tang Dynasty good man

The first ninety-four chapters are courteous, not for nothing

The ban on alcohol was finally promulgated, and the big stone in my heart fell to the ground.For ordinary people, it is just a matter of drinking two sips, but for the 1996 professional brewing workshops within a radius of nearly [-] miles in Chang'an, there are no tears to cry.After gloating for a long day, all the servants in the wine cellar were kicked out, and most of the porcelain pots were climbing up and down, having fun, rolling, it was so cool, value-added, daily limit, Changyang took two years, compared to [-] A.D. SDB is still awesome, I am too bad, haha.

Oops, it's broken, my mouth is twitching, and my smile is crooked.He straightened his jaw, cleared his disgusted expression, coughed twice solemnly, and walked out of the cellar.It’s raining today, it’s good if it’s raining, even if it’s hail, it’s just like God’s sending copper coins, anyway, the grain in my field has been harvested early.

If you want to say that this person, no matter what job he does, no matter what dynasty he is transferred to, he must have knowledge. If he has no knowledge and insight, he will just let it go.

It's very strange, when it was raining, Lanling actually came running, but I didn't intend to let people share my joy, it was too sudden, I wanted to brave the rain to climb Mount Tai or something, it disturbed my interest, so I had to Kicking off the tree to relieve hatred, Wangcai winked, the moment I stepped out, it seemed to remember something, and went to work.

"It's not the right time to come, but it's disturbing your pleasure." Lan Ling stood on the door of the study, watching me with a smile as I stepped down from the rain, "What kind of kicks? It can be regarded as an eye-opener, and I stepped down." The rain seems to be getting heavier."

"Don't worry about it, stunt, pass it on to your sons and not to your daughters." There was a lot of water on the leaves, which made me look like I was pouring a basin on my head. "I'm enjoying the rain, come here to disturb me." He took the hand towel from Lan Ling and wiped it all over, "Get up early, my wine steaming workshop was closed, and the imperial court was very considerate. The workshop with a hundred people was fully subsidized." Fifteen shi of grain, just happy."

"Hehe..." Lan Ling bit his lips and laughed, "Who is it? You've earned a lot of food for nothing by closing your empty workshop. Don't you think I don't know? Your workshop has been closed for nearly two days, oh, it's wrong , Chen’s workshop.”

"Also, my Zhuangzi on the Fenghe side, didn't they say that they can subsidize the wheat? How come I didn't see a few grains? Millet, wheat. Even if you haven't planted the land, you can still distinguish clearly!" Yesterday the court's When the subsidy arrived, dozens of large carts were pulled back and forth many times, and it took a whole day. There was wheat, which was about one-third of the subsidy amount, and the rest were replaced with millet (yellow rice) according to the national exchange standard. ).Wheat is much more expensive than millet, and the family has just finished collecting the land rent, so there is no room for it in the granary, and two east wing rooms have been temporarily opened for storage, and Ying has been emotional for a day because of this.

"You're not at a disadvantage. Now we're releasing grain for disaster relief. It's all about tightening Mi Zila first, probably from the household department to bring it to your family in accordance with the ratio of grain." He covered his mouth and snickered, "After all, there is still little wheat. , besides, the taste of the two is similar. Isn’t it?”

"En," I raised my elbow and wanted to hit someone.The taste is similar, how about fooling primitive people?Even mice know that wheat is delicious, and there is a warehouse for storing wheat, so the millet is absolutely unscathed. "Forget it, I can't blame you. Let's not be an example!" After pulling it all over, push it back to find someone else and replace it?It's better to keep the company's lawsuits to a minimum. "It's only for disaster relief. But next time I ask someone to work and say hello in advance. Don't be so vague that you can't even miss a good one."

"Don't tell me, millet has the benefits of millet. This is not a message for you." Lan Ling pulled me to sit down, and wiped off the water stains on my head and face, "Your family's life-saving wine is not The reputation has grown, oh, the Chen family. Yinggong’s injury has only recovered for a few days, and at the same time as his old enemy, he wrote a letter requesting to promote it in the army. Liang Jianfang took advantage of you? These days, just watching him jump up and down is not safe. In the words Outside the words, it seems that if you don’t eat maggots or drink alcohol, we Tang soldiers will never win battles.”

"Ah! Eating maggots and drinking alcohol?" Who would be so despicable, thinking that I was in the diet business?Angry!It's not organized like that. "Who said that, I'll lead someone to whip him!"

"Because the emperor is about to fight, who cares?" Lan Ling was probably reminiscing about the scene at that time, shaking like a sieve with a smile. "Don't you think it's ridiculous? The two old commanders grabbed Liang Jianfang's sleeves and insisted on letting him explain it clearly. If you don't explain it clearly, you will accuse him. All kinds of crimes will come out."

If you think about it, Liang Jianfang loses his temper and hits people when he is upset. I am an example, let alone pull his sleeves.But it's another matter to fight the commander. Old man Liang is not stupid, he dare not do anything when he is angry, it is indeed interesting. "How did you solve it later?"

"Last time, the two doctors who treated Yinggong walked out of the hall again, and told the situation at that time. Immediately, someone jumped out and yelled, saying gossip to confuse the crowd, insisting on coming to ask Yinggong to confront him. It wasn’t the Holy Majesty who spoke, so it really started fighting.” Lan Ling likes to chat with me recently, pouring a glass of water in his hand, and the conversation can’t stop, “What is the status of Yinggong, how can he be brought over to confront him. I have to wait for the next court, the Holy Majesty Concerned about this matter, I arranged to find a patient with a fever due to trauma for verification. It was similar to Yinggong’s symptoms, with alcohol and maggots. A large group of people surrounded it. After seeing the effect, those who opposed it were closed. Mouth." Flicking his hair, he said with a smile, "The Holy Majesty has been thinking about it since he came here for the treatment of Yinggong. He asked me twice before and after, and then caught up with Liang Jianfang who picked this head. All the civil and military people in the dynasty have gained this insight. It's a big trouble. .”

"Is there any advantage to me?" It's a very face-saving thing.The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, what a ostentation, showing his face in the State Council, and there will be nothing to pursue for a lifetime, enough.

"The good thing," Lan Ling blinked, "You have a good reputation, you know how to fight, you know math, you eat maggots and drink alcohol..."

"I hit!" He stepped forward and grabbed Lan Ling's shoulder, turned around and slapped his butt twice.

"It's a heavy hand!" Lan Ling felt the pain, returned it to me, and rubbed it for a while, "It hurts, hehe." He leaned close to me, "If you have a big reputation, someone will come out to recommend it, especially for someone like you. Basically, if you are popular and have a title, you are willing to do this kind of favor. So if you have the intention of entering the court, now is the best time. If you have a smooth wind, you will have no problem getting into the Zhongshu in 20 years. It depends on your intention. .”

"Isn't that a good thing? Am I assigned to grow sugarcane in Lingnan?" Although I don't have a lot of historical knowledge, I also know that being an official in the next 20 years will be uneasy. If I stand on the wrong team, I can Go to develop the sugar industry for Datang.

"After entering the court, don't expect things to go smoothly for a long time. Even if there are such people, they are rare," Lan Ling shook his head with a smile. "Being an official of peace and happiness is also possible. Idle errands pass a lifetime without making a sound, and no one pays attention. But if you enter the court, I'm afraid that idle errands won't be able to get along. It's up to you. But this time the sage didn't say anything, see It doesn't seem too eager to be sponsored by someone."

"Besides being an official? Are there any other benefits?" I don't go to work when I have free time, not to mention that what we are messing with is not a low-level thing.If you really become the top leader in Zhongshu, others will point out and spread rumors: Look.The Secretary of State of the Tang Dynasty is a master at eating maggots and drinking alcohol, and he is extremely capable...whether it is inappropriate!

"That's easy." Lan Ling shook his foot, kicked his shoes and threw his foot on my lap, "I give you a privilege to make a good bar. It's very cheap. But one thing, the grain of the distiller's grains is allocated by the Ministry of Households , Brewed in a fixed amount, and the Ministry of Households will purchase how much. No favoritism or fraud is allowed." He gave me a white look, "This is nothing to you, if you don't do anything in it, you're not Wang Xiu, don't go too far."

"Haha..." When he clasped his hands, it seemed to be exactly what Ying analyzed.The implementation plan under government intervention, "No problem. Is there any official document? I don't dare to make mistakes if I don't see the official document."

"Yes, it will arrive as soon as we talk. It will be signed by Zhongshu himself, and it will arrive today and tomorrow." Lan Ling bent his legs.Squeezed at me, "Food has been tight for the past two years, try to do as little as possible, and when it eases, you will relax."

"What are you talking about? Am I such a person?" She curled her lips in disdain, "Don't provoke me! The Wang family has served the country and the people for generations, and even though I am the only seedling here, the spirit of the lovely country has not been lost! I must let you see See what it means to be selfless and fearless. Loyal to the king and patriotic!" It can't be too early, wait until the privilege certificate is in hand, go to the government to go through the formalities, and then be selfless, "I will be exempted today, and I will know how great I am in two days, haha..."

Steaming wine, steaming alone is not enough, once the alcohol is banned, there will be no raw materials.Another brewery had to be opened.Prohibition is a good opportunity.Send Lanling away, and ask Ying to bring the fourth and second daughters to discuss.Now all the wineries are closed, taking advantage of the fire to rob several brewing workshops and come back.Ying wanted to take revenge. The workshop on the north gate was the thorn in the heart of the Wang family, and it was the first one.Although the owner of the distillery is considered a technical talent, he has a criminal record after all. He wanted the workshop without anyone, and even took down the shop fronting the street.

The fourth one means that the environment on the north gate is good, the traffic is important, and there are many merchants coming and going. The shop can be renovated and renovated. Although it can no longer sell alcohol, the plain egg has been used as a signboard, and the exquisite small facade is very attractive.I originally wanted to build a cafeteria, but I was opposed. I can’t sell wine openly. No matter how good the food in the cafeteria is, I can’t get business.

"Diet is half-benefit." Not reconciled, he struggled to the death, "No matter what."

"No one to take care of it when it's big, and it's not enough money to spend money when it's small. Although it's blocked on the main road, after all, the family has no experience in catering, so it's hard to hire a good shopkeeper. The business is like a mountain, and our own business has not been done yet. Make it right, don't look for those thoughts anymore." Ying didn't take it seriously when I suddenly changed the topic and entered the catering industry, and said theoretically: "If my husband doesn't believe it, you can find out when you go to the restaurant in late autumn. There is no wine, no fresh greens. Vegetables, no fresh fruit, relying on the output of green vegetables on both sides of Nanshan Lishan, even the royal family can't supply it, let alone any restaurants."

"I'm going to sell mahua!" Angrily, he climbed up on the top of the kang, and ran wildly, "I'll set up a street stall in Zhuangkou tomorrow, selling only mahua, don't let anyone take care of it!" What a broken dynasty, there are four seasons in a year, No fresh vegetables are available in the two seasons, who would like to enter a restaurant that eats dried vegetables. "You guys have figured it out, it's like this, the fourth and second daughter is in charge. When I take the privilege granted to us by the imperial court, I will be a black sheep and send the secret method!"

"Hehe..." Ying smiled and pushed me, "The fourth child is here..."

"I know." I got up and stretched embarrassedly, "If you don't say it, you forget it, hehe, what did you say? Keep going..."

What is a prodigal son? Those who can't keep their ancestral property decline and sell it, those who make friends with friends and ruin the family's reputation are those who take things from the house and don't know how to cherish them and spend money to learn from Meng Changjun.I think I can change my name in the future, and it would be more appropriate to call Wang Prodigal.Let’s not talk about other people, when I went to the Ministry of Industry to present the secret method of brewing wine, I just explained my purpose when I felt that the official who entertained me looked wrong, and he gave me a few glances because I have a big name.No one dared to make a decision, so he had to wait for Cao Shangshu to make his own decision.

The amiable and respectable Uncle Cao, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, changed his usual amiable appearance, frowned and comforted: "Nephew Wang Xian, have you thought about it? Have you discussed it with your family? If you are not healthy and go home to recuperate, your job I just pretended I didn’t see the picture. The little five elders mentioned you recently, so you should get closer in the future.”

"..."

It seems that the rumors of this life-saving wine are fierce, and the curative effect that the emperor has seen with his own eyes is no small matter.Uncle Cao's first reaction was that I was sick.Then he changed the subject and drove me back, which made me feel a little uncomfortable.Originally prepared to do whatever it takes to serve the country and the people, the words just came to my mouth, but I forcibly choked back, feeling like I swallowed a rotten egg and choked on it.

"Go back quickly, it's okay to make trouble with those boys if you have nothing to do, Qin Yu has been taught by you, and I will send Xiao Wu to study under your school in the future, but I have to trouble Zihao to take care of it." After saying that, he made an elder salute and planned to drive him away.

"Oh, Uncle is right in reminding you. The boy's brain is a little out of order, so he ran to the Ministry of Industry in a dizzy state." Forget it, since they treat us as patients, they should simply be sick! "Go back now, you are always busy. Excuse me."

Prodigal son, Mr. Cao must think so, and the officials who entertained me.Family and country, this era is more annoying to be sorry for family than to be sorry for country.I am exemplary.He kept saying how much his Xiaowu admired him, and Cao Shangshu would definitely lecture the Cao family heirs when he returned home: In the future, whoever dares to associate with Wang Xiu, that prodigal son, see if I don't interrupt his dog legs!

It seems that it is right to give it to Lanling, there is no need to go out and earn the title of 'Prodigal Son' with others, just be honest.

"Have you figured it out?" Lan Ling was equally surprised by my abnormal behavior. "If you offer this thing, then what are you going to want? The imperial court has no reason to accept such great benefits for no reason. Occasionally, there are people who offer this or that, and they all have plans. Change of official?"

"Sister!" I rubbed my temples and looked at Lanling innocently, "You treat me as anyone, even if my conscience finds out once, we will contribute to the country, right? Why are you talking in one breath? You treat me as sick too gone?"

"That's not true!" Lan Ling turned over the drawings and explanatory materials and threw them in front of me, "I'm afraid I know better than your wife what kind of temperament you are. Anyone can do this. It just won't happen to you. Put it aside for two years I took it away without saying a word before. But now I have to think about it, after all, it is your mother-in-law."

"I've discussed it with my family." Pushing the materials in front of Lan Ling, "Don't worry, take them away. I don't change my position, I don't change my money, I don't even want my reputation. Just take it away quietly."

"What are you afraid of?" Lan Ling forced my eyes to look, and opened the drawing, "Afraid that the court has thoughts on your family? Because I said last time that the emperor personally saw the effect of the medicine, thought I was hinting at you? I'm overwhelmed, I don't want to have any trouble with you because of this matter, and I won't wait to see me in the future."

"Sister, you are going too far." How can I explain, "It has nothing to do with you, and it has nothing to do with anyone. You are patriotic and love to go wrong. First, you went to the Ministry of Industry and were treated as a patient. Now you are still suspicious, understand me. Just send it on the street, and if anyone knows it, you are willing."

"There is a reason for everything." Lan Ling closed the drawing and tapped on the table, "What is your reason? Don't say high-sounding words, what do you think?"

"Okay," I surrendered, "I have selfish intentions, I just want to make money for my life, toilet water is enough for my unique business, and I try not to attract attention as much as possible. The court will definitely not embarrass me, but I can't stand jealous people talking nonsense."

"That's right." Lan Ling glanced at me, "After all, I'm still worried about the court embarrassing you, you don't care what others say." After thinking for a moment, he said softly: "It may be right, Thinking about it from your standpoint, it’s really not easy to do. Give up money to eliminate disasters, and make long-term plans.” He frowned, “However, the city was full of storms just now, and you immediately donated to the secret method. What you know is that you have long-term plans. , Those who don’t know think that you are coerced by the court and have no choice but to do it. I just took it away, and I have to send it back to you in a few days.”

"Ah..." It's hard to do, it seems that it's not appropriate to show courtesy for nothing, "Then..."

"Change," Lan Ling smiled. "Change officials, titles, and farmland. That's reasonable."

"But I don't want to change my official position. I don't want to change my title. It's big enough now. Don't worry about the fertile land..." It's a very troublesome thing. I originally wanted to change my reputation, but the above three things are not worth it.Reluctantly said: "Forget it, take it, it doesn't matter what you change except for being an official, it's a mess!"

"You man. You are asking for a lot of money in business." Lan Ling carefully packed the information into a silk bag, "Let me think about it, I will give you a reasonable price. It is not to embarrass you. It is a taboo to not reward you for meritorious service. The court There is no way to ask for it."

"Gold medal for avoiding death?" After calculations in his mind, this is the only deal.

"What?" Lan Ling had no idea about this, "How about a gold medal?"

"Forget it, forget it," she obviously hadn't watched TV dramas, not even a village girl.Impatiently waving his hand, "I love you, I'll send you off anyway, and I'll give you money to pull two carts tomorrow. I'm so tired!"
