Traveling across the heavens starting from the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 66: Purchasing Supplies in the Main World

Chapter 66 Return to the main world to buy supplies
In the warm pavilion.

Li Lizhi tasted all the pastries and desserts, and her mouth was bulging until she couldn't eat any more.

After the cooks prepared another batch of various pastries and desserts and packed them in more than a dozen five-layer food boxes, they planned to take these boxes of pastries and desserts to Princess Changle's Mansion.

Then, after seeing Princess Changle's palace, Li Lizhi took these pastry and dessert boxes directly to the palace.

"Brother Huai'an, this is the most delicious pastry and dessert I have ever eaten in Changle."

Li Lizhi subconsciously touched her overstuffed belly, feeling a little naive.

A meal of dazzling pastries and desserts also made her change her name from eldest brother to brother. Even though there was only one missing character, the relationship between the two became much closer again.

This gave the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty a completely new view of Li Huaian, her future husband, with more fantasies and more expectations for her future married life.

This fully reflects Li Huaian's scumbag attributes.

This girl actually used delicious food to deceive Princess Li Lizhi of Tang Dynasty Changle.

"If you want to eat from now on, you can come to Shouchanghou Mansion every day. Soon, this will be your home. You can come at any time and ask the cooks to cook it for you directly. If you don't have time to come, just eat whatever you want. Inform Ruoqiu in advance to prepare some for you, and you can ask Yue'er to come and get it."

Li Huaian smiled and it was very simple for Li Lizhi to achieve freedom in pastries and desserts.

"it is good."

Regarding Li Huaian's proposal, Li Lizhi did not have the slightest will to refuse. Anyway, it would not be long before she would marry into the Shouchang Hou Mansion.

Before that, running to my future husband's house every day should not be considered a disturbance.

The most important thing is that she really can't refuse these pastries and desserts, and she really can't say a word "no" from her mouth.

So after agreeing to Li Huaian.

Li Lizhi turned to Li Ruoqiu and smiled.

"Then Changle will come to disturb Sister Ruoqiu more often."

"No, the princess comes here often. It just so happens that the princess can get familiar with the affairs of the house. We can also discuss opening a pastry shop in Chang'an City."

Li Ruoqiu had a smile on her face and did not have any emotions about Li Lizhi's frequent visits to Shouchanghou Mansion. Instead, she was consciously maintaining the stability of Shouchanghou Mansion for Li Huaian in the future.

Li Lizhi is the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, and she can't feel jealous yet.

"Okay, let's go to the Princess Mansion in Changle. Taohua, go and call Old Wu Tou over and go to the Princess Mansion with us. He is a master craftsman from the Ministry of Industry, and he just happens to accompany us to have a look, as a consultant. "

Li Huaian interrupted Li Lizhi and Li Ruoqiu's discussion of opening a pastry shop. At the same time, he ordered his maid Taohua to call Wu Dayong from the mansion and go to the princess mansion with a craftsman who was familiar with the architecture of the Tang Dynasty. More convenient.

"Okay Sir, I will go and invite Master Wu right away."

The maid Tao Hua responded and turned around to find Wu Dayong who was supervising the work in the mansion.

Wait for the boxes of pastries and desserts to be placed on the carriage.

Wu Dayong also rushed over with his maid Taohua.

"Master Hou, I'm here."

Wu Dayong ran to Li Huaian and asked him the purpose of calling him.

"I heard from Miss Peach Blossom that the Marquis wants me to accompany him to Princess Changle's Mansion?"

"Yes, we people don't seem to understand much about construction. We just go there to see the scenery. With you, a master craftsman from the Ministry of Engineering, there is someone who understands. I can introduce it and give you some opinions. Didn’t you say that you participated in the construction of many palaces in the imperial palace?”

Li Huaian patted Wu Dayong on the shoulder and joked.

"Master Hou is joking."

Wu Dayong thought for a moment.

"If I remember correctly, the person in charge of building the princess palace for Princess Changle should be Yan Shaojian, who will be the superintendent. As a master craftsman from the Ministry of Industry, I don't dare to give blind advice in front of others. Yan Shaojian's family is a well-known construction family."

"Yan Liben?"

Li Huaian muttered, is he about to meet another historical figure?

"Yes, Lord Marquis, that's Shaojian Yan Liben. If it hadn't been for the advice from Lord Marquis, I wouldn't have been able to compare with them in terms of construction."

Wu Dayong nodded.

At the same time, it also revealed the gap between him and Yan Liben. Compared with this kind of architectural family, a master like him is still a little less confident.

Li Huaian retracted his thoughts and waved his hands to comfort him: "That's okay. I don't necessarily need to give you any advice this time. The main purpose is to introduce the construction issues of the Princess Mansion to Chang Le and me. In fact, the main purpose is to introduce to me, Chang Le should I’ve already understood it.”

"That's okay."

Wu Dayong felt relieved when he heard that he was just serving as an introduction in the Princess Mansion, as a tool. He could do this without any psychological pressure.

"Okay, let's go now."

Li Huaian said hello and asked Li Lizhi, Li Ruoqiu, maid Taohua and the other maids to prepare to leave for Princess Changle's Mansion.

Starting from Xinghuafang towards the Imperial City, heading to Princess Changle's Mansion in Taipingfang, you only need to cross one square or two streets to reach Taipingfang.

Changle Princess Mansion looks very grand from the outside. Looking around, you can see the long green brick courtyard walls towering over the street, protecting the safety and privacy of the entire Princess Mansion.

Compared with Changle Princess Mansion.

Li Huaian's Shouchang Hou Mansion looks much inferior. Whether it is the outer courtyard wall, the gate, or the most important area, it is incomparable.

Changle Princess Mansion covers an area of ​​110 acres (one mu in Tang Dynasty was 540 square meters), more than 5 square meters, which is more than five times larger than Shouchang Hou Mansion.

Another thing is that there are eight rivers and five canals in Chang'an City, and the Qingming Canal among them flows through Taipingfang. The Changle Princess Mansion is located right next to the Qingming Canal that flows through Taipingfang, so it can divert the running water from the Qingming Canal nearby. Enter the Princess Mansion and let the water in the entire Princess Mansion become living water.

This is what Li Huaian envies.

The Qingming Canal flows through many squares in Chang'an City, including Taipingfang. Xinghuafang, which is on a parallel vertical line with Taipingfang, is naturally on the path of the Qingming Canal. However, the Shouchang Hou Mansion is still one or two meters away from the Qingming Canal. If each family wants to introduce running water from the Qingming Canal, they can only expand the Shouchang Hou Mansion again and buy the houses of those two families.

However, expansion will have to wait until next year.

Li Huaian and others walked around the princess's mansion. During this period, they did not meet Yan Liben, the young eunuch who would be the prisoner. They had no chance to meet the most famous royal painter in Zhenguan.

It doesn't matter.

Li Huaian came to Changle Princess Mansion this time mainly to take a look at the construction status of Li Lizhi's princess mansion.

As Li Lizhi said, the entire Princess Mansion has not yet been formally constructed. Looking around, you can almost see the entire Princess Mansion. At most, you can see some erected beams in the Princess Mansion.

There are no more redundant buildings.

Li Huaian took Li Lizhi, Li Ruoqiu, the maid Taohua, and a group of maids to stand in the courtyard of the Princess Mansion where bricks were piled. They looked at the neatly stacked mud bricks and stretched out their hands to pluck a stick like Wheat straw plant straw.

"Changle, your princess's mansion also uses mud bricks?"

Who would have thought that the majestic eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, Princess Changle, the favorite of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, would also use wheat straw and mud to build the princess palace with naturally sun-dried mud bricks.

If you say it, no one will believe it.

It is estimated that the common people under the Tang Dynasty still thought that the princess's house must be built with gold bricks. Then they would think that their princess's house was built with wheat straw and mud bricks just like the common people.

"Well, yes, Brother Huai'an."

Li Lizhi nodded and explained why the princess mansion used mud bricks. "These mud bricks are all used to build the courtyard wall of the princess mansion. The courtyard wall is made of blue bricks. It is too wasteful and the money spent is wasteful. The national treasury does not have so much money to give me. This princess mansion is built entirely with blue bricks. It will be much cheaper to use mud bricks. You only need to pay some production labor. If you don’t want to buy mud and wheat straw, you can collect them directly from my food fiefdom."

"Green bricks are used in building houses. They may not look like mud bricks, but they are very practical. With the addition of wheat straw, they are very strong. These mud bricks are not only used in my princess's mansion, but also in the homes of many nobles in Chang'an City. Yes, this kind of mud bricks is also used in many places in my father's palace, and this kind of mud bricks are also used in the walls of Chang'an City."

"Brother Huai'an, don't look down on these mud bricks. These mud bricks are convenient and cheap to make. Not only can they be made quickly, but they can also reduce the financial pressure on the Tang Dynasty."

Listen to the various benefits of Li Li's coefficient mud bricks.

Li Huaian looked at Wu Dayong, trying to distinguish the true from the false.

Wu Dayong understood the look in Li Huaian's eyes and quickly explained.

"Master Marquis, what the princess said is true. Green bricks are difficult to burn. Mud bricks are not only used by the common people, but also vigorously promoted by the court. Mud bricks will also be used in places that are not very important in the palace. As long as they are built, After smoothing it out and finally applying a layer of paint, nothing can actually be seen.”

"That's it."

Li Huaian hesitated for a moment and then looked at Li Lizhi. He had thought that the Princess Changle Mansion would use mud bricks, but he did not expect that so many mud bricks would be used.

Most of the land used for stacking bricks and stones was used for stacking mud bricks.

So he made a decision for Li Lizhi.

"Changle, please stop your princess mansion first. It happens to be cold. Let's rebuild it with my Shouchang Hou Mansion next year. Then, I will prepare new bricks and stones for you. Next year I will make a new one. Blue bricks are similar, but they are easy to make and cheap red bricks come out, so these mud bricks should not be used."

talking room.

Li Huaian stretched out his hand and broke off a corner of a mud brick. No matter how strong and cheap the mud brick was, as long as it had not been fired, it would never be as good as a real fired brick.

"Although these mud bricks are cheap and quite durable and strong, there is no need to use them in the construction of the Princess Mansion. It happened that the Princess Mansion stopped and gave part of the cost of building the Princess Mansion to the Coal Chamber of Commerce."

"Okay, then Changle listens to Brother Huai'an."

Li Lizhi nodded in agreement.

To her, it actually didn't matter whether the Princess Changle Mansion was built or not. Pausing it would not delay her living in the palace.

The Changle Princess Mansion was built in the first place entirely because her father wanted her to marry into her uncle's eldest grandson's family as soon as possible next year and marry her eldest grandson's cousin Chong, so he was anxious to build this princess mansion.

Now that the engagement with cousin Changsun Chong has been terminated, there is actually no rush to build the Changle Princess Mansion.

In addition, because of Li Huaian, there are also survey materials on marriage and children.

Li Shimin was already working on revising the marriage laws of the Tang Dynasty.

Under these many factors.

Li Huaian proposed to stop the construction of Princess Changle Mansion, but there was no problem.

Confirm with Li Lizhi the suspension of construction of the Princess Changle Mansion.

The entire Changle Princess Mansion was bare, and there was nothing to wander around.

then.

Li Huaian took Li Ruoqiu and the maid Taohua back to Shouchang Hou Mansion in Xinghuafang.

Li Lizhi returned to the palace with her maid Yue'er.

Of course, Li Lizhi did not forget the boxes of pastries and desserts placed on the carriage.

Return to Shouchanghou Mansion.

Wait until nightfall.

Wu Dayong led all the craftsmen to leave the Hou's Mansion before the city was locked. After finishing the day's work, the entire Hou's Mansion became quiet. The maids in the mansion began to light lamps and candles to illuminate the night of the entire Hou's Mansion.

And Li Huaian plans to return to the main world.

This time when I return to the main world, I don’t have to explain anything special to Li Ruoqiu and the maid Taohua.

After all, I had already explained it when I left last time.

Li Ruoqiu and the maid Taohua were also mentally prepared for Li Huaian's departure.

"Wait for me at home obediently. I won't be back for long this time. I mainly want to bring back some materials for the construction of the mansion."

Li Huaian was in the bedroom, looking at Li Ruoqiu and the maid Taohua who looked like peeled eggs, and comforted them.

"Then the gentleman should come back soon."

Goodbye again.

Although Li Ruoqiu has already experienced it once,

But when she heard that Li Huaian was leaving again, she still felt some reluctance in her heart.

Taohua, the maid, did not say anything and held Li Huaian in her arms without letting go.

"Okay, darling."

Li Huaian comforted the two beauties in his arms again, and without waiting for the reaction of Li Ruoqiu and the maid Taohua, he directly called up the [All Heavens] system in his mind, and silently activated the [Cross-World Teleportation] in his mind.

Otherwise, if the comfort continues, not to mention the tiredness of the waist, it will continue endlessly, which will waste time even more.

"System, return to the main world."

"."

"Transmission started"

"."

"Lang Jun."

Seeing Li Huaian disappearing on the bed, Li Ruoqiu jumped into the air and felt silently sad for a moment.

"Miss, Mr. Lang just left temporarily and will come back."

main world.

It's Li Huaian's rental house that is no longer used but is being rented again.

"."

"This cross-world teleportation is over, and the calculation of the rewards for the end of this cross-world teleportation in the Tang Dynasty will begin."

"Rewards are being calculated"

"Reward calculation ends."

"Start giving out rewards."

"."

Li Huaian pulled a chair from the side, reached for an old piece of unwanted clothing and wiped the dust on the chair before sitting on the chair, waiting for the reward from the [All Heavens] system.
