Chapter 18 Yu Wen Shi and
The house in Higashi, of course, is very expensive.
In Chang'an, not only the East Market and the West Market can do business, in fact, many squares have their own small markets and shops, but the East Market and the West Market are the most concentrated places. However, the cluster effect of shops was quite obvious even in the Tang Dynasty, so the real big merchants would inevitably open stores in the East and West markets, and some even had a store on each side.
If ordinary people want to find a good house in the East and West City, it will naturally not be too easy.
However, for Li Yuanjia, the king of Han, this matter is not difficult, especially when he is still a Yongzhou pastor and happens to be in charge of Chang'an City in name, all that needs to be considered is whether the geographical location of the house is good enough and whether the area is large enough.
But......
Just when Han Shan found Shi Yangsu, the governor of Yongzhou, and found a shop in only three days, Yu Wenshi, who heard the news, hurriedly came to Han Wangfu.
"Yuan Jia has seen his uncle."
Standing outside the door of the living room, Li Yuanjia saw Yu Wenshi and hurriedly took two steps and grabbed the old man's arm: "I can't go out to greet my uncle, I hope to forgive my sins!" ”
For his uncle, Li Yuanjia has always respected him very much.
Not only because of the connection between the two bloodlines, but also because of the Yuwen Shi and the care he has taken care of him in the past ten years. Let's not talk about anything else, it is the tens of thousands of acres of land in Luzhou under his name, and Li Yuanjia still doesn't know whether it is the money from the emperor and the imperial concubine, or the money from this uncle!
Confused, stupid and can't tell the difference.
But one thing Li Yuanjia is sure of, although he and Yu Wenshi did not meet much, even after returning to Chang'an, except for the last dynasty, they only met a few times, but Li Yuanjia knew very well the reason for this - Yu Wenshi and many times sent his henchmen to the palace to send letters, telling him to endure loneliness and survive the more than two years of filial piety, and not to fall short......
So when he saw Yu Wenshi, Li Yuanjia was also very affectionate.
Seeing that Li Yuanjia was still treating himself so respectfully and affectionately, Yu Wenshiji's eyes flashed with satisfaction, but he still hurriedly wanted to break free of his nephew's hands: "King, let go...... Dignity and orderliness, the king must not be like this. ”
In terms of family affection, Li Yuanjia is a nephew, but in terms of the status and title of the two, Li Yuanjia is a prince and a good one, while Yu Wenshi is only a third grade, not to mention that Li Yuanjia is still the emperor's younger brother.
However, Li Yuanjia didn't let go, but said with a smile: "Uncle, this is not outside, so our uncle and nephew don't have to be formal, right?" Come inside and try the milk tea I just made for them. ”
While speaking, Li Yuanjia helped Yu Wenshi and walked into the house.
Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows, and Yu Wenshi asked curiously: "Milk tea?" It can't be a mixture of goat's milk and tea, right? I've already tried it, and it tastes better with some green onion and ginger, and some refined salt and mutton fat! ”
“……”
The corners of his mouth twitched, and Li Yuanjia instantly lost the interest in discussing with his uncle.
In fact, green onions, ginger and refined salt or something, in fact, he can barely accept it, after all, everyone's taste is like this these days, especially like Yu Wenshi and the old man of this age, it is not realistic for you to expect him to like pure boiling water to make fried tea. But as soon as he heard the word mutton fat, Li Yuanjia immediately felt a little pregnant......
So after rolling his eyes secretly, he quickly helped Yu Wenshi to sit down on a Taishi chair, and said with a smile: "Uncle, my milk tea only has black tea and milk, and I add some frosting sugar or something, but nothing else...... You'll see what it tastes like later. ”
Although Li Yuanjia himself still likes tea, in order to cater to the tastes of people in this era, he decided to start making a little change.
In order to promote tea, he also had no choice.
Who makes the big guys not like to drink tea? Whether it is Li Shimin or Yu Wenshi, or even Fang Xuanling, who Li Yuanjia has placed great hopes on, he doesn't seem to be very interested in the bland tea, so he has to add something strange to it. So Li Yuanjia's compromise was to let Yu Niang and them keep trying every day, and finally made a milk tea that tasted acceptable to him......
"Ahem! Ahem! ”
As soon as he sat down on the Taishi's chair, Yu Wenshi suddenly coughed for a while.
"Huh?"
Looking at the old man's slightly hard look, Li Yuanjia couldn't help frowning.
Goodbye Yu Wenshi this year, his state is obviously much worse than before, and his steps are already a little sluggish when he came in just now. Considering his uncle's age, there is nothing strange about it, after all, this year still belongs to the stage of "seventy years of life", and Yu Wenshi and this age are already in their twilight years.
But hearing this cough, Li Yuanjia felt that something was still wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle, ...... your body?"
"It's okay, it's just a small problem."
Waving his hand, Yu Wenshi smiled and said, "Occasionally, I feel cold, just rest for a few days...... Wang, I heard someone say, do you want to buy a shop in the East Market? ”
“…… Really! ”
Secretly smiled bitterly, but Li Yuanjia nodded with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, I have already found a good place, it's just more than a thousand yuan, it's quite cheap." ”
After listening to Li Yuanjia's words, his brows suddenly furrowed, and Yu Wenshi asked, "What did you buy it for?" It's not going to be a business, is it? Do you still want to sell those thirteen incense? ”
"Haha, how so?"
Shaking his head, Li Yuanjia said with a smile: "Now there are at least four or five companies selling thirteen incense in Chang'an City, and I am not interested in getting involved." Uncle, you also know that I have a paper workshop that can produce more than 100,000 pieces of white paper every year, and Han Wangfu alone can't use that many ......."
"Huh? You want to sell paper? ”
was a little surprised, but after listening to Li Yuanjia's words, Yu Wenshiji's face was still not good-looking.
Sounds better than selling thirteen incense, but that's not business?
Although he doesn't want his nephew to be involved in the whirlpool of politics, it doesn't mean that he is willing to watch Li Yuanjia become a businessman! Especially when he bought a house in Dongshi so openly, he didn't even want to find someone to cover it up, which made him really annoyed in his heart!
So frowning, Yu Wenshi and said in a deep voice: "King, even if you sell paper, you can't do it, wouldn't it be shameful if this spreads?" ”
"This ......"
Smiling helplessly, Li Yuanjia said, "Uncle, isn't it?" ”
"Huh? How not? ”
Glaring at Li Yuanjia, Yu Wenshi said bitterly: "You are a prince of the Tang Dynasty, and your status is extremely respectful, how can you do such a businessman's thing?" If you need money for something in the house......"
"No, no, it's not a lack of money!"
Without waiting for Yu Wenshi to finish speaking, Li Yuanjia quickly shook his head and said, "Uncle, this is really not about money...... Let me tell you, I want to open a shop to sell paper, just to make better paper......"
