Chapter 13 Li Shentong's Grand View Garden
The light rain in the early morning seems to be scattered in the air, and it is very comfortable to stick to the body. Especially for the drunk, this kind of weather is simply a gift from God.
The old guy didn't drink less last night, but he got up earlier than Yun Hao today. When Yun Hao was still hysterical to Xiaoyu, the old guy was already clamoring for breakfast. It is said that Yun Hao does not respect the elderly, and if he doesn't eat again, he will beat people.
Millet porridge, small steamed buns, small pickles. This is the Yun family's traditional breakfast item, given that yesterday was eating dumplings. The buns stuffed with leeks and eggs were not served, and Yun Hao thought that was the real delicious food. The freshness of the leeks and the sweetness of the eggs are put together to make your tongue swallow.
A bowl of milk with eggs goes down to the belly, and the old guy pats the belly. Muttering that there is only milk and no mutton soup, God! What belly do you have, who drinks mutton soup early in the morning? Don't be afraid to get tired!
The old guy didn't propose to leave the Yun family, so Yun Hao naturally forgot to mention it. It doesn't hurt to let Li Shentong know more about the Yun family's Zhuangzi, Yun Hao has no intention of rebelling. Everything in the Yun family can be put in front of people!
After eating, Yun Hao wanted to inspect the Yun family Zhuangzi as usual. This is what every head of the family has to do, except for not peeing on the boundary monument. Everything is no different from a tiger patrolling his territory, whether it is a human or a tiger. Territory consciousness has a strong sense of territory, and the territory is its own hunting ground.
Yun Hao can be a tiger, then Li Yuan is a dragon. Lintong is Yunhao's hunting ground, so Datang is Li Yuan's hunting ground. For predators of a higher level, Yun Hao is full of respect. Guys who don't have the slightest respect end up being dragon excrement. Few people pay homage to such creatures that they have never seen in person, and few people notice that dragons are cannibals.
Lintong is centered on the Yun family, skipping Zhuangzi and directly developing into a township. Three- or four-story buildings have risen from the ground, and there is such an artifact as cement. The old fisher even imagined building the house to six or seven floors, but Yun Hao resolutely stopped him. Without high-strength rebar, building such a tall building would be life-threatening.
In fact, as long as it is not necessary. The Yunjia Zhuangzi's building is three stories highest, and the only six-story building is a stargazing platform. It is still built on Lishan Mountain, although it is far away from Yunjia, but the scenery there is the best.
Yuan Tiangang has been here eight times, and Daomen is willing to spend a lot of money to buy the stargazing platform. Regardless of gold or silver, as long as Yun Yao offers a price, Daomen will guarantee that Yun Hou is satisfied.
Regarding Yuan Tiangang's request, Yun Hao resolutely refused. The Yun family is not bad for money, this is the consensus of the Tang Dynasty. Almost all the things produced by the Yun family are good deals that make money every day, and others can't learn it.
In view of the lessons of later generations, highly polluting heavy industries have been moved into the mountains. Jiapigou is now an important smelting base of Datang, although the number of products produced just now is not very large. But the quality is definitely superior, after paying tribute to Li Yuan with a horizontal knife that sharpens iron like clay. The order for the Weapons and Armor Workshop was lined up for three years!
On the battlefield, quality needs to be guaranteed. No one will joke with their lives, and one of the places where the nobles are most willing to spend money is the blade armor, and the other is the war horse.
The Yun family exchanged the spirits mixed with water for a lot of war horses with the Turks, but there was no way. As soon as the Turkic nobles of the steppe saw this spirit, their eyes began to glow. The real descendant of the wolf clan, the third child of the Liu family, came back and said that many people's eyes were green. If it weren't for the fear that no one would dare to sell this kind of liquor on the grassland in the future, it would be a question of whether Liu Laosan could come back.
Nowadays, the farthest place between Lintong and Yunjia is a huge cattle and horse market. This is also the only place in the entire Chang'an neighborhood where beef can be sold publicly. There's no way, the cows from the grassland don't fucking know how to pull the plow.
This thing is very strange, the cattle of the Central Plains will pull the plough and plough the land without much teaching. The cattle from the grassland seem to have come to Chang'an to consume forage. Many of the old croppers have worked hard for a long time and have not taught these fools how to plow. Since there is no practical value, it has to develop edible value.
Li Yuan also turned a blind eye to this kind of thing, after all, the law of the Tang Dynasty protects the cultivated cattle, for this kind of thing that only eats and does not work, if you don't kill and eat meat, is there still a waste of forage? Now if the noble family wants to eat a bite of beef, they have to come all the way to Lintong.
I bought beef in the summer, and I had to fill it with ice cubes in the Yun family. Transported back in a wagon wrapped in expensive cotton, otherwise it would have been fresh to reach home dozens of miles?
After Liu Wuzhou's uproar, the population of Jinyang Yunjia Zhuangzi migrated over. Leaning against the foothills of Lishan Mountain, there are various factories. From matches to soap and spirits, you name it. A large-scale paper mill on the riverside is also under construction.
The Yun family built its home with industry, and now it is in Lintong. The craft of farming was completely abandoned, and almost everyone of working age became a worker. Opening two vegetable patches in your yard is even if you do farm work.
With the gathering of people, there is naturally the development of commerce. Close to the center of the Yun family, there are rows of shops everywhere. From needles and threads to silk brocade, there are all kinds of glass, and even the Western Regions goods that have not been around for many years are also a lot. The price is much more expensive than the glass in Chang'an City, and there is no other way to take advantage of the color and workmanship. The glass from the Yun family's workshop is a tribute. Whoever buys it will be offered as a family heirloom.
There are legends of the maid who broke the glass ornament and was buried alive, and I don't know if it's true or fake.
Li Shentong saw everything fresh, and the huge puppets were stuffed with cotton. The shape is also quite cute, with four turtles holding various blades in their hands. There are forks, nunchucks, sticks, double knives, and rabbits with long ears, and the outside is decorated with pink flannel, which the little granddaughter will love.
The wooden dolls are also cute, still layer by layer. There is a doll on the outside, and there is another one inside when opened. Open it again and there is it inside. There are more than a dozen layers in the doll that is more than one person high. I didn't say the same pick two, as for what to do when I go home, I haven't figured out what to do yet.
Perfume is also a must-have for girls. Need to buy more, what? Actually talking about bottle sales, when did Huainan Wangfu be so stingy, and give Lao Tzu two barrels.
Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, and the turtle entered the city to describe the shopaholic Li Shentong. As long as there is something sold on the street, the old guy has to take a look at it, and then buy it. The goods behind him quickly piled up in a carriage, and looking at Li Shentong's strength, it seemed that he still needed a carriage.
The excited Li Shentong got into a shop, but was scolded by the fierce mother-in-law inside. The standard Guanzhong accent is a fierce Guanzhong woman at first glance. Li Shentong withdrew in a daze, but didn't dare to talk back, and when he went out, he asked the steward to buy back the pants made of two ropes inside. Recently, I have a new concubine, and it must fit well when I wear this.
Turning his head, he discussed with Yun Hao the practicality of the two pieces of cloth strung together with straps. It also uses divergent thinking to discuss, and uses gold to create a pair of academic topics such as whether it will have health care functions.
The turtle is endless, Yun Hao didn't expect Li Shentong to be a salty and wet guy!
