Datang: at the Beginning, Eat Fruit

　　"belch."

　　After eating the pizza, Lu Xiu, who had a big appetite, ate all the remaining dumplings before burping.

　　Because of the fish and fish fruits, his appetite was three times larger than before. .

Chapter 269

　　After dinner, the sky finally gradually darkened.

　　Because it was the Lantern Festival, the island was actually empty and no one was there, including Li Er, they all returned to Chang'an to enjoy the Lantern Festival lanterns.

　　The Lantern Festival is the most prosperous day of the year in Chang'an City.

　　Although the Spring Festival is important, everyone is at home, visiting relatives, cleaning, etc., and rarely goes out.

　　"Brother Lu, the time should be coming soon, can we go?" Li Zhi said.

　　"Aren't we going to soak in the hot spring first?" Lu Xiu said.

　　"Little friend Lu, we really have to leave early. Today's hour is the busiest time. If it's a little later, it may all be gone," Li Yuan reminded.

　　Lu Xiu thought about it too. Although it was only seven o'clock in the evening, it was still early for modern times. Most of them went out at eight or nine o'clock, and then went home until the early morning.

　　But in ancient times, it was very late, and almost no one could be seen even around nine o'clock.

　　"Okay." After letting Chu Mo and the others take the fireworks they made, Lu Xiu put on a mask, and then used the door fruit to transfer to Chang'an City.

　　As soon as he arrived at Chang'an City, Lu Xiu was surprised by the brilliant lights in front of him.

　　Despite modern society, the lights are bright.But the candlelight reflected by the lantern presents a different kind of romance.

　　The streets were crowded ten times more than usual with people coming and going.

　　Originally, Lantern Festival was the busiest day, and a large number of people came from Yangzhou to play, so it was so crowded.

　　"Selling biscuits, maltose, and roasted sweet potatoes..."

　　"Lang Jun, do you want to bring a lantern to your wife?"

　　Countless hawkers on the street were shouting, but the most surprising thing was that some people would even sell sweet potatoes.At that time, all the harvest was sold to the people of Anping County, except for the tenant farmers.

　　Lu Xiu asked people to ask, one (cfae) cost ten dollars, which was ridiculously expensive.But I have to say, roasted sweet potatoes are delicious.

　　"It's so lively."

　　Li Lizhi, who was visiting the Lantern Festival Night Market for the first time, couldn't help but exclaimed.

　　She pulled Lu Xiu around to the east and west, and finally ran to a lantern shop and bought a unique lantern with beautiful scenery.

　　Holding the lantern, Lu Xiu strolled in the direction of the fire tree.

　　It's a pity that word puzzles only became popular in the Song Dynasty, so there was no word puzzle guessing activity on the Lantern Festival. Lu Xiu wanted to show off his skills.

　　"The food sold on the street is incomparable to what Lu Xiaoyou brought out. Well, except for the roasted sweet potatoes, I didn't expect the sweet potatoes to be so sweet after being roasted." Li Yuan, who bought a roasted sweet potato to eat, said.

　　Especially the biscuits, I just had the pizza so I didn't even want to look at it.

　　"Roasted sweet potatoes do have a unique flavor, Brother Lu, let's go back and bake some to eat." Li Zhi laughed.

　　"The only bad thing is that it's a little dirty." Li Yuyao's pretty face was a little gray.

　　"Dirty is the second thing. If you eat too much, you will fart a lot." Lu Xiu said with a smile.

　　"Ah? You can fart?" Li Yuyao's face turned pale. "My husband is dead, why didn't you say it earlier."

　　Farting has been a difficult thing for girls since ancient times.

　　The girls didn't dare to eat more, so they gave them all to Lu Xiu.

　　"Look, ahead is the fire tree prepared by the government this year." Li Qinghe said loudly.

　　"Is that so, where is it?" Xiao Xiao raised her head slightly, and then a huge fire tree seventeen or eight meters high appeared in front of them.

　　On the huge trees, the leaves were all cleaned up, leaving only the branches and trunks.

　　On the trunk of the tree, there are densely hung lanterns that are only lit.Hundreds of lanterns gathered at the same time, emitting bursts of fiery red light.

　　"It's really beautiful, even better than the lanterns in Yangzhou City." Xiao Xiao lit her red face vigorously.

　　The orange-red light, although not comparable to the modern electronic neon lights, has its own unique beauty.

　　Lu Xiu was slightly shocked when he saw the ancient lamp tree for the first time.

　　"Haha, son-in-law, why did you come here? The night market on the Shangyuan Festival is about to disperse." Behind him, Li Er's laughter came.

　　"Dad, we've been playing on the street for a long time. We went all the way from Golden Light Gate to Suzaku Street, then to the market at East Gate, and finally the flower tree." Lizhi said.

　　"Well, we also spent an hour in Chang'an City. I didn't expect this year's Chang'an to be so lively." Li Er said excitedly.

　　"Many people in Yangzhou came here because of the festival, so it was more lively than before. I'm afraid it won't be long before Chang'an City will have a population of more than one million." Fang Xuanling said.

　　It may even be a few months after Chang'an City, when the fruit of the door is connected to several places, Chang'an has become the most important hub, and it may not be able to accommodate so many people. .

Chapter 270

　　"Master Lu, you ordered me to wait for the dozens of gun battles on the city wall. They have already been arranged. Do you want to set them on fire?"

　　In the eyes of the surrounding people, a huge falcon landed next to Lu Xiu. It turned out to be Baolin.

　　Originally, he was not a member of Lu Xiu's bodyguard, but he was transferred to become a member of Lu Xiu's bodyguard because he ate the eagle fruit.

　　"Well, go and set them on fire."

　　After being instructed, Baolin flew back to the city gate.

　　"Boom!"

　　Half a minute later, an explosion sounded like a dry thunder out of thin air, which frightened the people in the city to the point where they were timid and even their feet were a little soft.

　　The panicked people looked at the source of the sound.

　　I only saw more than a dozen beams rushing up to the sky, and suddenly exploded in the dark sky.

　　"Crash!"

　　The fireworks spread all over the sky instantly, and the four colors of red, yellow, white and blue light bloomed like flowers in the pitch-black night.

　　"Everyone, look, what is that in the sky, it's really beautiful."

　　"Wow, it looks like fire is burning in the sky."

　　"Listening to the sound is God's thunder, is it thunder and lightning with brilliant colors?"

　　Bunch by bunch of fireworks shot from the city gate to the sky dozens of meters, and the more than [-] people in the entire Chang'an City all began to look up and look up at the beauty of the sky.

　　"Brother Lu, is that really a cannonball fight? Why is it different from the New Year's Day?" Lizhi asked curiously.

　　"It can actually be regarded as a type of cannonball. It's called fireworks. Iron powder, aluminum powder, etc. are added to the cannonball. They burn with colorful flames, don't you think they are very beautiful." Lu Xiu said with a smile.

　　"It's beautiful, it adds a bit of festivity to the lively Lantern Festival. It's a really good gun battle." Li Erzan said.

　　"Hee hee, wouldn't that be able to play casually at night in the future?" Li Zhi said happily.

　　"Fireworks are a bit more difficult to make than artillery battles. It's ok to put them on a few times a month." Unless Yuan Tiangang perfects the craft, and then recruits a large number of people to make them, forming a commercialization!

　　The gunpowder is used so quickly, and I don't know what effect it will have.But with the ability of the Devil Fruit, the lethality of gunpowder is very strong, but there is no threat.

　　In the world of pirates, there is also the existence of gunpowder, such as artillery guns and so on.

　　With a deafening sound of fireworks, the Lantern Festival at night finally came to an end.The gorgeous fireworks blooming in the sky made the people's eyes straight.

　　"God bless the Tang Dynasty."

　　"I hope there will be a good harvest this year and no disasters."

　　The people have been tormented by the disasters over the past two years. After the drought, the plague of locusts followed, making it difficult for the people of Chang'an to eat.

　　The auspiciousness of the fireworks in front of the eyes of the people is in the hearts of the people

　　…………

　　"Little brother Lu, did you have any extra cannonballs you fired last night? Hey, can you give me a few nights to play with?" The next morning.Cheng Yaojin ran in a hurry, he should have learned the source of the fireworks from Chu Mo.

　　"No! If you want, go to Yuan Tiangang. He is mainly responsible for the development and production of fireworks and firecrackers." Lu Xiu shook his head.

　　"Yuan Tiangang? Alright, thank you Brother Lu for your guidance." The excited Cheng Yaojin ran to Yuan Tiangang's position without saying a word.

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

　　"Husband, including Cheng Guogong, there are already seven people who have come to ask you about fireworks." Li Yuyao said speechlessly.

　　"Hee hee, including Lizhi also wants to play." Lizhi said.

　　"I think they are not only for fun, but for business." Qinghe clearly felt that those people were "malicious".

　　This has been the case since a long time ago. The tables and chairs that my uncle took out were used by Cheng Guogong to open a furniture store to make money.

　　The way to eat the hot pot that was taken out was directly used by Yu Chigong to open a hot pot restaurant the next day.

　　Even the barbecue techniques such as barbecue that are often eaten on the island, let Qin Qiong carry forward in Chang'an city more than ten days ago.

　　It is not difficult to grill delicious barbecue meat, mainly relying on several kinds of spices obtained from the sea.

　　Last night, I saw the barbecue restaurant opened by Qin Qiong, and its business was booming.

　　In particular, a large number of people are diverted from Yangzhou to Chang'an City, and the consumption of Chang'an City will invisibly increase a lot.

　　For example, in a hot pot restaurant, the turnover of Zuixianlou in one day can only be sold for more than [-] tons at most.Now the appearance of the door fruit has increased the business to [-].

　　After deducting all the costs, I can make a net profit of 20 kans per day.

　　"My uncle is too kind to them, if I would never give it to them for nothing." Qing He snorted.

　　"Hehe, Qinghe, don't care about that little profit."

　　For Lu Xiu, money is endless. With the ability of the system, he didn't take money seriously.

　　If you want money, find the American continent, where there are rich gold mines, but not much money.
