Chapter 306: Something Good Is Coming
Being able to mix a name in Gongsun Jianwu's troupe, even if it is Nineteen Niang, it is enough to prove that his strength is extraordinary.
In the face of Wang Xiao's proposal, there was fragrant sweat hanging on her sideburns, and the slightly gasping Nineteen Niang chuckled and nodded, "Please have mercy on Master Hou." ”
Wang Xiao was stunned, just dancing together, what do you pity?
The eldest grandson over there, Wuji, was still thinking hard about why Wang Xiao agreed so easily, whether there was some conspiracy.
As a person who is good at playing conspiracy, his first reaction when he encounters something he doesn't understand is to suspect that others are also engaging in conspiracy to harm himself.
When he came back to his senses, he saw Wang Xiao on the stage and got a dancing sword.
The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't laugh.
In his impression, Wang Xiao is best at holding a spatula, not a sword.
This guy is a profiteer who picks the door.
Then, he saw Wang Xiao flick his wrist and threw out the sword flowers in the sky.
The eldest grandson Wuji thought that he had drunk too much wine and his eyes were dizzy. Rubbed his eyes vigorously and looked at it again, that's right, it's the sword flower.
The so-called sword flower is actually fast, with an afterimage, which makes people look as if they are dancing out of flowers.
But in reality, there is no real way to do it.
The speed of a man's sword cannot reach that fast, only a machine can do it.
The above is about ordinary people, and Wang Xiao obviously does not belong to the ranks of ordinary people.
His physical fitness, his swordsmanship that he has practiced for many years, and the bonus of Zixia Gong. It made it very easy for him to throw out the sword flower.
Looking at Wang Xiao who performed a beautiful sword dance in front of her, Nineteen Niang was also dumbfounded.
This is also an exaggeration.
Wang Xiao is purely idle in this world.
Cook all day, drink wine, fiddle with agricultural products, and tinker with new inventions.
On such days, the blood in his heart has been holding back and there is no place to vent.
The beating of Li Shentong some time ago was essentially a catharsis through alcohol.
After playing a set of Huashan swordsmanship, Wang Xiao felt that his muscles and bones were opened, and he was very satisfied.
"Master Hou is so powerful." Nineteen Niang Xiaoniao leaned over like a human, and looked at Wang Xiao with big eyes, "I wonder if Master Hou can teach the swordsmanship to the slave family?" ”
"My best skill is not swordsmanship."
In the face of the enthusiastic and studious girl, Wang Xiao's setting of being a good teacher was activated again.
After making a gesture to the eldest grandson Wuji, you pay, Wang Xiao hugged Nineteen Niang to learn swordsmanship.
As soon as the sword fell, white blood rolled out.
Wang Xiao taught swordsmanship for three days and three nights in the Chunfeng Tower, and he was definitely a very competent master.
The eldest grandson Wuji thought about it for three days, and finally decided to eat the bait thrown by Wang Xiao.
He gave it to Wang Xiao with a very good shop in the intersection of the East Market. Then he exchanged the technology of planting vegetable greenhouses from Wang Xiao.
didn't wait for him to be happy for a few days, and was called into the palace by Li Er.
Li Ershen mysteriously showed him a vegetable greenhouse that had been built, and happily said that in winter, a large number of fresh vegetables and fruits would be provided to meet the needs of the people of Datang.
Li Shimin was very happy because there was a way to increase grain production.
He didn't notice that it was going to rain on the day of the eldest grandson Wuji, and the black face of the old lady was going to get married.
A shop in the lively area of the East Market was hacked away by Wang Xiao. He is angry now, and his liver is trembling.
"I knew he said yes so quickly, something must be wrong!"
Wuji, the eldest grandson who left Daxing Palace, didn't think about his greed for benefits at all, just thought that Wang Xiao flickered away from his hand to take a shop in an excellent location.
This matter must not be counted like this, the eldest grandson Wuji rode directly to Dongshi and found Wang Xiao, who was supervising the renovation of the new wine shop.
After listening to the eldest grandson Wuji's complaint, Wang Xiao didn't wipe his face arrogantly, and said I just cheated on you.
He first asked the eldest grandson Wuji to sit down, and then drank a cup of hot water to relieve his mood.
After that, Wang Xiao said, you and I are willing to do this, and no one is at fault. But I'm a real person, and I can't bear to see you suffer. According to the current market, I will give you the money to buy this shop.
On the surface, from giving away to buying, the eldest grandson Wuji can be regarded as making up for the loss.
But the problem is that this is the east market of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, and it is still the best place in the area.
You can't buy a shop in this kind of place with money. Unless the family behind it is unlucky, it is impossible to make a move.
With a population of more than one million in the city alone, Chang'an City is the largest and most prosperous city in the world.
Moreover, there were merchants from all over the country, as well as Hu merchants who came through the Silk Road, as well as envoys and students from Goguryeo, Silla, Fusang and other places.
As the largest consumption area, the East and West markets are very busy with shops. Especially in Dongshi, which is mainly engaged in the business of rich people, it is really every inch of land.
"Next time, if there is anything good, be sure to let me know first." The eldest grandson Wuji didn't want to turn his face with Wang Xiao, so he could only ask for benefits as much as possible at this time.
"Definitely, definitely." Wang Xiao, who had a warm smile, nodded again and again, but how much sincerity there was in his words was a matter of two words.
Datang is getting better at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.
Inside and outside Chang'an City, no
The few roads were gradually changed to concrete roads. It's okay to say that the inside of the city is also a smooth stone road in the past. But outside the city, there are basically dirt roads covered in dirt on sunny days and muddy on rainy days. After changing to a concrete road, everyone was amazed.
More important is the military aspect.
In addition to building roads, guard towers were built with cement on the distant frontiers. Especially on the Longyou side, in order to deal with the threat of Tuguhun and Tubo, the passes built on various mountain roads are the most important.
Because of the large-scale waterwheel in the summer, and the promotion of the Quyuan plough during the spring ploughing. Guanzhong, which has been hit by drought, has a good grain harvest this year.
The price of grain in Guanzhong has also changed from one horse of silk for one bucket of rice last year to two buckets. The most important thing is that prices have doubled.
As for the cooking habits, it has changed from steaming and boiling to stir-frying in an iron pot. There is also soy sauce and soybean oil to increase the taste and nutrition, which is not worth mentioning.
To say that the most sensational, naturally a large number of glass appeared to impact the market.
The government said that this is called glass, but the people are still accustomed to calling it glass.
There are two main types of these glazed products, one is a kerosene lamp with a glass cover, and the other is a transparent glass plate of different sizes.
Glass lamps are used to light up at night, and glass panels are used to replace the window paper that blocks the light.
Specialized sales stores have appeared in both the East and West markets. The windows were made directly out of glass panes, and they were filled with kerosene lamps.
Many people went in and said yes.
Of course, the price of these two things is also a good word.
Limited by production, these glassworks are temporarily only available to wealthy families. And Li Er also wanted to take the opportunity to make a lot of money from these people.
Therefore, glass products have entered thousands of households or something, and there is still a long way to go.
As for those glass products that can be called works of art, they have not been taken out to harm the Tang people.
No way, with the commissioning of a large number of kiln factories, there will be more and more glass products. At this time, selling those glass artworks at a high price will be poked in the back.
Therefore, those glass products that look beautiful, but are actually just a pile of specially fired sand, have gone to the surrounding countries with caravans early.
These glass products will be exchanged for a lot of materials and wealth from the surrounding dirt buns.
Li Erke has never planned to live in peace with anyone.
Li Er, who has been fighting on horseback since he was a child, has always been in the habit of destroying all opponents.
Dou Jiande, Wang Shichong and everything were all eliminated by him.
He then eliminated his rivals for the throne, his eldest brother and younger brother.
Now that he has become the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he has already merged himself with the Tang Dynasty. Datang's enemy is his enemy.
All the surrounding countries, even the Zhaowu Jiu surname in the far Western Regions, were enemies in his eyes.
He is temporarily dormant to accumulate strength, and when he has enough strength, he will show his fangs and eat all his enemies.
The first to strike must have been the Eastern Turks, who brought him humiliation on the banks of the Weishui River.
Preparations had already begun, and various emissaries with letters and gifts were constantly traveling among the various tribes of the Eastern Turks, trying to divide them.
Among the caravans that went to the Eastern Turks this time, many of them were envoys and spies sent by Li Er.
They went with glass products and used every means to mobilize the internal strife of the Eastern Turks.
Wang Xiao was not interested in participating in these militaristic events.
In the winter, he is either busy with the vegetable greenhouse in the Zhuangzi, or in the newly opened three-story wine shop in the East Market.
The emergence of a large number of non-staple foods has enriched the dining table of Chang'an people in winter. At the same time, it also made Wang Xiao's wine shop business better and better.
"Don't say I don't take care of you." In the box on the second floor of the wine shop, Wang Xiao picked up the wine jug and poured wine for the eldest grandson Wuji, "There is a business that can make a lot of money at the beginning of spring, and now it is cheaper for you." ”
Even if he became the prime minister, the eldest grandson Wuji still had a huge desire for wealth. After listening to Wang Xiao's words, he took the initiative to grab the wine jug and pour wine for Wang Xiao, "What business?" ”
"Locusts."
"What's that?" The eldest grandson, Wuji, thought that he had misheard.
"Locusts." Wang Xiao said with great certainty: "After the beginning of spring, there will be a locust plague in Guanzhong, and when the time comes, we will cooperate together in a locust business." ”
The eldest grandson Wuji's face turned pale, and he wanted to directly reprimand Wang Xiao for his nonsense.
This special natural disaster from heaven is a big thing, you actually say it's business?
The last time there was a tengu eclipse day, I lost a prime minister. If you want to come to locusts again, do you want to pay for yourself?
"That's a good thing." Wang Xiao said with a smile: "There are so many locusts, but they are all rare nutrients. Add flour, soybean oil, salt and so on to make high-calorie military food. Useful when it's cold. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji's face was incredible, "Locusts, can you eat them?" ”
Of course you can eat it, Li Shimin also eats it by himself.
"Don't worry about anything, I'll take care of everything."
Wang Xiao's smile was very sincere, "Remember, this is a good thing." The old accounts of this shop, we have also settled them. ”
