"Come... Come... Come... Eat, drink, and you're welcome, especially the Daifuku brothers... You're too restrained. ”

At noon, Niu Jinda's house went to the restaurant for the first time to bring a table of good wine and food to entertain the Li family, and Li Zhan pressed a leg on Niu Qi, so that Niu Qi could walk like a normal person in the future.

This kindness is great for the Niu family.

Niu Jinda's family is a very grateful person, so they are also very kind to the people of the Li family.

"Hehe... I eat... I eat...! Li Dafu was called a brother by a county lord, and he didn't know where his mouth went, and while nodding again and again, he raised his wine glass and said, "General Niu, I toast you." ”

"Hey...!" At this time, Niu Jinda deliberately showed an unhappy expression and said: "Brother Dafu, this is your mistake, I call you brother, you call me general, isn't this an outside...?"

You're going to punish yourself with a glass...! ”

"Hey... Ay...! Li Dafu smiled and nodded again and again: "Okay... I punish myself, I punish myself, Brother Niu, I drank...! Then he took a sip of the wine in his cup.

"Shhhh It's so spicy...! ”

Li Dafu's evaluation of the wine made Niu Jinda laugh: "It's spicy... Daifuku Brothers.

This is not a folk rice wine and fruit wine, this is a wine specially brewed by the Liang Brewing Agency for His Majesty to drink... It's a tribute wine...! ”

"Tribute wine..." Li Dafu's eyes lit up: "Oops... Thanks to Brother Niu, I have drunk the same wine as His Majesty, which is really good...! This wine is truly the best in the world. ”

Li Zhan on the side watched his father boast about the glass of wine he had just drunk, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In fact, this wine is not very good, the degree will not exceed 30 degrees, the wine is brewed by the Liang Brewing Administration, and the Liang Brewing Administration is a special management department set up in Chang'an City for officials to make wine.

In order to make the emperor drink better wine, Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, gathered many government-run winemaking workshops. Many excellent sake brewers were recruited to make sake using the most advanced sake brewing methods at the time.

It's just that there is still a gap compared to modern times.

"Hehe... If you like it, drink more if you like... But... Brother Zhan'er, forget it, you better eat...! Niu Jinda looked at Li Zhan with some frowns.

Li Zhan laughed... Here, Li Dafu asked in some surprise: "Brother Niu, why is this?" ”

"Why?" Niu Jinda shook his head, as if he didn't want to recall: "Your son, a thousand cups are not drunk, the last time I and my old brothers, it was his big mistake, and they were all drunk by him."

Later, I found out that your son can't drink alcohol, just like drinking water, you say, Brother Daifuku, can you give your son such a good wine to drink? ”

"Really...?" Li Dafu looked at Li Zhan and then at the wine in the cup and said, "That's a waste." Then Li Dafu looked at Li Zhan and said, "You should still eat." ”

Li Zhan was speechless, and everyone around him pursed his lips and smiled.

However, Mrs. Niu kept putting vegetables in Li Zhan's rice bowl, and Li Zhan installed a prosthetic leg on her son, which could make her son get up and walk, which was equivalent to saving the Niu family.

Mrs. Niu likes Li Zhan more and more, and she likes it from the bottom of her heart.

Just as the lunch was about to end, Li Zhan looked at the uneaten mutton on the table and said, "That's right... Uncle Niu, on the mountain behind our house, it's a good season for hunting.

I want to invite Uncle Niu, Uncle Qin, Uncle Wei Chi and Uncle Cheng to go hunting together. ”

"Hunting...?" Niu Jinda lowered his brows slightly, but after a while, Niu Jinda raised his head and smiled: "Okay... Your horses and equipment, bows and arrows, I will prepare, and your other uncles, I will also go and inform them.

Two days later, we'll go to your house for a good get-together. ”

"Good...!" Hearing that Niu Jinda not only agreed, but also wrapped everything up on himself, Li Zhan was relieved, he had saved too much trouble.

............................

Around one o'clock... Li Zhan, Li Dafu, Li Sheng and Yang Qiaoer bid farewell to the Niu family.

At this time, Li Sheng was clamoring to go to the east and west cities for a visit.

There are two cities in Chang'an City, the East City and the West City, the East City and the West City are each in the same position on both sides of Zhuque Street, the left and right are symmetrical, each is located in the southeast and southwest outside the Imperial City, and the area is roughly equal. The east and west cities have built up the commercial pattern of Tang Chang'an City.

Its Middle East City sells Han Chinese goods... The West Market sells Huren goods, and the Tang Dynasty also has strict regulations on the trading time of the two cities: the market is opened with 300 drums at noon every day, and the market is dispersed by 300 cymbals before sunset. The actual trading time is only half a day, so you must buy things early.

Dongshi is one of the centers of handicraft production and commercial trade in Chang'an City. There are many shops and merchants here, and industry and commerce are very prosperous. Shops that produce and sell similar goods in the city are arranged in the same area, called rows. The inn where the merchant's goods were stacked was called the Di, which not only stored the goods for the merchants, but also handled large wholesale transactions for them. The industry and commerce in the East Market are not only divided into categories, reaching more than 220 lines, but also the operation of various industries is quite large.

Some people say that due to the proximity of the East Market to the Taiji Palace, the Daming Palace, and the Xingqing Palace, the surrounding areas are basically the residences of the royal family and dignitaries, and the goods operated in the market are basically luxury goods that meet the needs of the royal family and dignitaries.

This is definitely not, in the East Market, there are not only high-end luxury goods, many Han people need a lot of ordinary items, but because of the proximity to the Imperial Palace, the East Market is indeed more serious.

If you're in the West Market, you can see orchids on the streets and rarely dance, but in the East Market, you will never see them.

However, pen shops, wine shops, iron shops, meat shops, engraving and printing shops, etc., as well as donkey renters, huqin buyers, acrobatics, pipa masters, and splendid wealth and silk merchants.... Ubiquitous.

Li Zhan is walking and watching.

There was a lot of disturbance in the surrounding area, and the cries of hawkers. The sound of pedestrians' inquiries, as well as the sound of merchants and customers bargaining, deep in such a noisy environment, Li Zhan felt very magical, it was really lively here.

However, the excitement is lively, and the rules inside are also you must abide by, and you are allowed to operate in the heavenly market, and there is a curfew at night. Every day, when the sun is about to set, there is a special person in charge who will hit the cylinder 300 times, and the crowd in the city will disperse. Wait until the middle of the next day, hit the cylinder again 300 times, and then the merchants can start to operate their stores. No commercial activity is allowed after the strike until it begins.

In the West Market, there is also a special place for slashing criminals, which is located under a single willow tree in the West Market. The prisoners were escorted here by officials and executed. The slashing of criminals in the densely populated and active West Market was undoubtedly intended to serve as a warning so that the people could obey the laws of the Tang Dynasty.
