Great Tang’s Talented Little Landlord

Li Wangyou accompanied Li Er to a spacious hall in the theater, which aroused Li Er’s interest again.

“Ziyou, what are the tables in this hall?”

Those tables of Li Erzhi, if there are Transmigrator, naturally will know when you see it , Impressively a few pool tables.

To be precise, it is a few snooker tables.

This is naturally Li Wangyou’s new thing.

The manufacture of billiards is actually very simple. The history of billiards in Europe has at least six hundred years, so it is not difficult for Li Wangyou to find a craftsman manufacturer.

The cue and table of the pool table are easy to manufacture. Directly let the craftsman lay it with polished and smooth stone, and then spread a layer of flannel, to have a smooth, flat and non-deformed high-quality countertop.

The only thing that spent a lot of money was the billiard balls on the table.

In the beginning, the billiard balls were made of wood. Later, ivory billiard balls appeared, and finally in modern times, they were made of synthetic resin manufacture.

Li Wangyou, the “local tyrant”, can see wooden billiard balls. With a big hand, he took out a lot of copper coins and let people buy ivory around and made a batch of billiard balls out of ivory.

Snooker needs to use one white ball, fifteen red balls and six colored balls, a total of 22 balls are needed.

An ivory can only manufacture five billiard balls. Only one snooker requires at least the ivory of three elephants to be manufactured. Moreover, the billiard balls have high quality requirements, roundness should be round, and the weight requirements of each ball should be the same. Therefore, for this batch of ivory billiard balls, Li Wangyou’s money was not less spent.

Fortunately, there is no animal protectionism nowadays, otherwise Li Wangyou’s extravagant approach would be criticized by many people.

However, Li Wangyou is not guilty of this. Even if he does not use these ivory, the elephants in the future will still be slaughtered by the Europeans.

After all, in history, European aristocrats slaughtered at least 10,000 elephants every year for ivory billiards. In comparison, Li Wangyou uses such a bit of ivory, but it is nothing but a shame.

As for whether he brought this billiard ball to Great Tang, will it lead Great Tang’s nobles to follow suit and hunt the poor elephants? Li Wangyou can’t control it.

Li Wangyou is actually not very proficient in billiards, but he is bored in Great Tang, he naturally has to have fun for himself, which cost a lot of money, and invited craftsmen to create these. The pool table comes out.

For Li Ers question, Li Wangyou smiled and explained the billiard rules again: “Uncle, this is a billiard ball made by my nephew. The gameplay is very simple. Use a cue to hit the white ball. Let the white ball hit other balls and hit it in the four corners of the table and the holes on both sides to score. Balls of different colors have different points. The red ball has one point and the yellow ball has two points…”

Li Wangyou explained, and took the cue to demonstrate to Li Er and the others. After his explanation, Li Er, Zhangsun Wuji and other big men beside him became interested.

“Ziyou, this thing is very interesting, similar to Chuwan. Come, how about playing a game with me?” Li Er understood Li Wangyou’s explanation and immediately beckoned him to pass it. The cue, learning the posture of Li Wangyou just now, lay on the table and gestured.

In this regard, Li Wangyou will naturally not refuse, and gestured to the servant girl serving on the side to arrange the ball on the table for them, and then made a gesture to Li Er and invited Li Er to kick off.

In later generations, Li Wangyou was not good at playing billiards, but at any rate he was a good player. Against a “rookie” like Li Er, he was naturally able to win a round of snooker with ease.

This aroused Li Er’s eagerness to win, and he pulled Li Wangyou reluctantly and asked to continue.

His Highness is fate, Li Wangyou can’t help but he didn’t show any affection to Li Er, and he went on a new city without hesitation, so angry that Li Er’s face turned black.

So, Li Wangyou, who still wanted to show off his “ball skills”, was unceremoniously driven off the table by Li Erhao, replaced by Zhangsun Wuji, who was already greedy, and continued to play with him.

The result is self-evident. The rookies pecked at each other. Li Er, who has two games experience, narrowly defeated Zhangsun Wuji and finally laughed.

“Yes, this thing is very interesting, Mi Tuo, turn around and bring me a pool table back to the palace!”

Li Er is not at all polite, even with Li Wangyou. Without saying hello, the host turned to side Mi Tuo instructed.

Li Wangyou almost got angry, but there is nothing to say, he can only secretly slander Li Er who has no shame in the heart, so he is robbing other peoples property in such an open fire, and there is no kings law. ?

But even if he has any more opinions, he can only hold it in his heart. After all, Heaven and Earth is big, Li Er is the biggest…

Li Er is too addicted to billiards, and I visited the Great Tang Theater with Li Wangyou. He was very interested in various entertainment and leisure facilities, and he was amazed by Li Wangyou.

It wasn’t until noon that Li Wangyou ordered servant girl to be a servant to invite those big guys who had a great time to have a meal.

In the theater, there are a number of boxes with different decorations dedicated to entertain guests.

Li Wangyou respectfully invited Li Er and the others to a box called “Dongfeng Pavilion”.

Li Er looked at the three words “Dongfeng Pavilion” on the box, and asked curiously: “Ziyou, what is Dongfeng Pavilion?”

Li Wangyou is waiting for Li When I asked the second question, I immediately coughed and said loudly: “Uncle, this is from a poem, Uncle knows it as soon as I hear it.”

“Oh? Read it to listen.”

p>

“The sun, the moon and the heavens, the mountains and rivers are the homes of the emperor. There is no retribution for peace. I wish to seal the book to the East.” Li Wangyou immediately read the poem shamelessly, but Li Er couldn’t help but be a little bit astonished. Big guys like Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, etc. are even more weird.

Dont blame everyone for having such an expression, it is indeed that this poem by Li Wangyou is too to have no shame.

Li Wangyou read this poem. It is a poem written by Chen Shubao, the postmaster of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, who became a prisoner in order to film the flattery of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty.

Dongfengshu refers to Fengchanshu.

Chen Shubao’s poem is praising the Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty for his merits, saying that his merits are high and virtuous, and he should go to Mount Tai to confer Zen.

Li Wangyou shamelessly used this poem to film Li Er’s flattery, which made everyone look so strange.

“Uncle, as peaceful today, it is because of Uncles His Highness that protects the auspiciousness. Now my Great Tang, Vientiane is renewed and prosperous, and the people of the people worship Uncle sincerely. Uncle is the emperor, Gong covers Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, my nephew thinks that Uncle deserves the book of Dongfeng! So he boldly named this pavilion and named Dongfeng Pavilion.”

In fact, Li Er did not have it in his entire life. Able to confine Zen.

But at this time, Li Er is in his prime of life. For Mount Tai, he is naturally longing for it.

Li Wangyou’s words about flattery naked and flattery made Li Er very useful. However, he was not embarrassed to talk, he just coughed: “Ziyou is interested.”

Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and the others are not as good as Li Wangyou to have no shame. On this topic Its not easy to answer the conversation, so I can only laugh and follow Li Er into this “Dongfeng Pavilion”……
