Datang: at the Beginning, Eat Fruit

　　Li Er planned to place the palace in Chang'an County, a few dozen miles away from Chang'an City.

　　Then, with the palace as the center, the area of ​​Chang'an Imperial City can be expanded tenfold.

　　With everything planned in his mind, Li Er was instantly full of energy when he thought of the magnificent imperial city and the magnificent palace.

　　…………

　　The ability to maintain the fruit of the door is open for four hours a day, two hours in the morning, and two hours in the afternoon. If so, it can also support the flow of tens of thousands of people.

　　The people deepened the exchanges between the two places because of the appearance of the gate.

　　At the beginning, the people were limited to playing.

　　After that, many vendors from the two places set up their stalls back and forth. Now, on the seventh day, the first couple of Yangzhou and Chang'an men and women appeared. .

　　In the past, it was unimaginable. Except for big families, it is difficult to have marriages separated by thousands of miles.

　　With the door door fruit, the distance between the two places is shortened to the distance of a door, making it possible.

　　After the first case, there have been frequent marriages between men and women from the two places. Most of them are men from Chang'an City who marry women from Yangzhou, south of the Yangtze River.

　　The temperament of Jiangnan women is indeed favored by Changan men.

　　Of course, it is not uncommon for Yangzhou men to marry Chang'an women, but there are more than half of the examples.

　　For example, Qian Yong's son Qian Jiahao, Lu Xiu gave them generous year-end benefits at the end of the year.

　　As the helmsman of the boat, Qian Yong, in addition to the salary of [-] tons, has dozens of extra annual money, spices, fine wine, and tens of catties of tea (cfae) leaves. He already has about [-] tons.

　　If you add the immeasurable eagle fruit, and go to sea with Lu Xiu for more than half a year, Qian Yong will get more than he paid, I don't know how many times.

　　Because he needs to lead the fleet to sea next year, Lu Xiu gave the Falcon Fruit to take by himself, and he was not willing to use it for his own children.

　　In the sea, if you can become a falcon, the survival rate can be increased several times.

　　And the hundreds of kuai obtained, for ordinary people from ordinary families, it can be said to be a huge sum of money.

　　Qian Yong was also very happy and wanted to marry a daughter-in-law for his son with the money he had.After all, his son is not young, he is sixteen or seventeen years old.

　　In order for my son to not have to suffer from him again, he hired a teacher to teach him to read and write since he was six years old.

　　Qian Yong originally considered waiting for his son to take part in the imperial examinations in Beijing after a year of marriage.

　　But who would have thought that in Yangzhou and Chang'an, they were actually connected by a door.

　　Qian Yong knew very well about the strange gate, which was clearly the ability of the master of Lu Zhuang.

　　Therefore, Qian Yong was not surprised that he could travel thousands of miles from Yangzhou to Chang'an, but his son's face was full of surprise.

　　Seeing this, he was very proud.

　　A few days after returning home, Qian Yong often boasted about what he had seen at sea, and boasted about the magical ability of the master of Lu Zhuang. His son did not believe it very much.

　　Of course, it was also the first time that Qian Yong came to Chang'an. The scenery in Chang'an city overwhelmed the two of them.

　　The most important thing is that with the entrance to Chang'an, it seems much easier to participate in the imperial examination. It is not too late to come to Chang'an from the entrance two days before the opening of the spring test next year. .

Chapter 265

　　But what Qian Yong didn't expect was that his son would fall in love with a woman in Chang'an City.

　　Qian Yong couldn't help laughing, but he didn't stop it.Because Chang'an and Yangzhou, there are also many people who marry each other.

　　With the gate connecting the two places, it is not difficult to marry a Chang'an woman.

　　The only difficulty is whether the money is enough. On the day of marriage, there will be dozens of wives and hundreds of people going back and forth between the two places.

　　But for him, it's nothing, and now his family is rich.

　　What's more, starting next year, he will lead the team out to sea, and if he manages affairs for Lu Zhuang, it will not be difficult to earn a few hundred, or a few thousand.

　　It will even be favored by the master of Lu Zhuang, rewarding him with unparalleled abilities.

　　What he didn't expect was that his son was looking for a nobleman of Chang'an City, the daughter of a viscount.

　　Xun Gui, who has always been high above, naturally despises the son of the "boatman", although he is talented and is a rare talent.

　　In the eyes of nobles, what is important to marrying a daughter is the right match.He Wei Chi is a Viscount of the Tang Dynasty, and he is also a figure in Chang'an City.

　　"Viscount Wei, I... I want to propose to your wife for my son. I wonder if I can ask you to fulfill them." Qian Yong said.

　　"Hmph, since you are also worthy of marrying my daughter, I think you are toads who want to eat swan meat." Viscount Wei sneered.

　　"I can't say enough words. Don't bully the poor. My son will take the imperial examination this year. Maybe I can win the title in one fell swoop." Qian Yong said.

　　"Haha, even if your son is in the middle, I don't like it." Wei Chi said lightly.

　　He is a noble with a title, and even many officials in Chang'an have to give him a little face.

　　Even if he was able to get into the top three in the imperial examinations and gained fame and fame, and wanted to stand out from the officialdom, it was impossible without a background, and he would only be an official with no rank all his life.

　　"Is there really no room for negotiation? Although my family is not very rich, I will definitely... definitely prepare a generous betrothal gift for you at the end of next year." Qian Yong pleaded again.

　　Wei Chi glanced at Qian Yong disdainfully, how could he care about the dowry.

　　"Haha, old Wei, I came to see you. I heard that your daughter fell in love with the son of a boatman in Yangzhou City?"

　　A joke came from outside the house.Soon, a smiling man in a luxurious green robe appeared in front of him.

　　"Brother Fang, hurry up and take your seat. Haha, I'm letting you see a joke, the little girl is just confused for a while. Look, he is the boatman who dared to come to the house to propose marriage to his son. I really don't know who gave him the courage. If I marry my daughter to him, won't my Wei family become a joke in the entire Chang'an City." Wei Chi said.

　　"Hmm. It's natural to think carefully about marriage matters. Unfortunately, my son and your daughter have no fate." Fang Yuan chuckled.

　　"Hey, let's not talk about it. By the way, has the matter that I asked for help have been settled? How can I get the qualification of Mingyu Island?" Wei Chi said impatiently.

　　"Because of the last assessment, I abstained. I really regret it. Otherwise, my family would be able to live on the island. Now I have a clue, but we will talk about those things later. You will greet the guests first."

　　Fang Yuan jokingly looked at Qian Yong, but when he saw Qian Yong's appearance, he froze for a while, and said in disbelief, "Aren't you the treasurer of the national master's ship?!"

　　"Ah? You... do you recognize me?" Qian Yong looked discouraged, he was about to leave, and was recognized, looking a little surprised.He seemed to have no impression of the person in front of him.

· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·

　　"Haha, I had a relationship with you on Mingyu Island." Fang Yuan laughed.

　　"Brother Fang, do you recognize him?" Wei Chi asked in surprise.

　　"How could you not recognize him? He is the helmsman of the national master's ship. He is the one who will lead the caravan going to sea next year. I heard that you have an eagle fruit rewarded by the national master. Do you want to sell it to I, I am willing to give [-] passes." Fang Yuan said.

　　"What, he actually knew the national teacher?" Wei Chi was shocked.

　　Even as a Viscount of the Tang Dynasty, he did not have any chance to meet the national teacher.

　　The only close encounter was on the day of sacrifice to the sky, when I witnessed Lu Xiuhualong flying into the sky.

　　"I ate the fruit." Qian Yong shook his head.

　　"Really, it's a pity. If the national teacher rewards you with extra fruit, can you consider selling it to me? I'm willing to pay a high price to buy it." Fang Yuan suggested.

　　"I will consider it." Qian Yong said.

　　"Hehe, it turns out that Brother Qian knows the national teacher. If that's the case, why didn't you tell me earlier. Come on, let's sit down and talk slowly." Wei Chi suddenly changed his attitude and said with a smile on his face.

　　"Brother Wei, I think it's not a loss for your daughter to marry him. The national teacher values ​​treasurer Qian, and he is willing to reward him with the fruit of the eagle. If Qian Yong wants to meet the national teacher, it should be very simple." Fang Yuan said with a smile. .

　　"It's easy to talk, everything is negotiable." Wei Chi said.

　　Originally, Qian Yong's head was full of question marks, but when he learned that it was Lu Xiu, he exclaimed in his heart, "Zhuangzhu Lu's face is too much."

　　He is a "boatman", because he is only sailing with the owner of Zhuang Lu, and he is treated differently by them.Four.

Chapter 266

　　"Then my son's marriage..." Qian Yong couldn't fathom the change in Wei Chi's attitude.

　　"Don't worry, anything about marriage can be discussed naturally." Wei Chi smiled.

　　It is true that he is a baron, but he is just a little shrimp in Chang'an.And the current national teacher of the Tang Dynasty is the consort of the Tang Dynasty, and he is the king of Anping.

　　That is the supreme being that His Majesty, princes, nobles, and the like will also curry favor.

　　If his son can get a title, and then add a special relationship with the national teacher, so that he can get some care from the national teacher, in the future, their family may really become a phoenix.

　　Let alone a baron, he even made him one of the princes and nobles of the Tang Dynasty.

　　The two began to sit down and talk in detail again. After talking for a long time, Wei Chi understood the background of Qian Yong's family.

　　After thinking for a long time, he agreed to Qian Yong's proposal, but he also attached several conditions.

　　First of all, Qian Yong's son must obtain a title. With the title, he can be regarded as having a foundation for standing in Chang'an.

　　The second was going to sea in March. Wei Chi wanted Qian Yong to take his son to sea to see a thing or two. In fact, he was able to work under Lu Guoshi.

　　"By the way, Brother Qian, based on your relationship with the national teacher, can you help bring a few words to the national teacher, so that we can board Mingyu Island and play for two or three days." Wei Chi said, rubbing his hands.

　　"Brother Wei, you look at me too highly. Although the national teacher is very good at talking, I don't know if he will agree to my request, and I don't want to owe the national teacher's favor for that little thing." Qian Yong said helplessly.

　　"Too."

　　Wei Yong sighed, it seems that the idea of ​​​​going to the island to play cannot be realized.

　　Which one on the island is not noble, their status is also a dream if they want to land on the island.

　　After talking about the marriage, Qian Yong turned into a falcon and flew into the sky under the envious eyes of the two.

　　"Brother Wei, your future in-laws have a very close relationship with the national teacher. It's not a loss to marry your daughter to him." Fang Yuan said.

　　"I didn't expect him to have such a relationship with Lu Guoshi. I had already rejected his proposal. Thanks to Brother Fang's reminder just now, otherwise a good thing would have turned into a bad thing." Wei Chi said.

　　"Hehe, who are we and who? If you have a relationship with the national teacher in the future, and you will grow up from now on, don't forget me." Fang Yuan said.

　　…………

　　The matter of Qian Yong is just a microcosm of Chang'an City.The close connection between the two places because of the fruit of the door is actually not a bad thing.

　　Especially now that the Lantern Festival is approaching, the government will completely lift the curfew from the Lantern Festival from January [-]th to the [-]th, and people will finally be able to have leisure programs at night.

　　In the evening, the entire Chang'an City was brilliantly lit.There are several lanterns hanging in front of the door of each household, and the candle light will illuminate the night of Chang'an City.

　　As a result, the night market in Chang'an City is more lively than during the day.Many people in Yangzhou came to Chang'an from Yangzhou in the evening, and did not hesitate to spend a night in their shacks in order to enjoy the night market in Chang'an City.
