Chapter 266: Kong Ming Lantern

Originally, I thought it was just a gift, and no one would care about giving something, but as a result, when Jia Yi arrived at Li Jing's house, a large cart of things didn't even look at it, Li Jing's old guy grabbed Jia Yi's neck and asked about cotton, which made Jia Yi's face full of wry smiles, not to mention that he had really seen cotton, it was very good, the cotton wool was snow-white and snow-white, and it had been pulled out by Jia to find someone, and the seeds were made into cotton soil, and a layer of silk cloth was made on the outer bread, which was made into a small mattress by Jia Yi, which was very warm.

When Li Jing listened to Jia Yi's words, it was a slap on the face, which was a major matter related to the military aircraft, how could he be a small mattress to cover the baby's buttocks, and in the end, Jia Yi still prevaricated with too little cotton and couldn't do too much research, and other families were basically all like this.

When he arrived at Lao Cheng's house, he casually pulled on a large cart of things, and found that the wine was only four jars, and without saying a word, he slapped Jia Yi in the face, telling him that he would play this kind of slip next time, and beat him.

Jia Yi wants to cry without tears, to whom are four jars of wine and some fresh vegetables, even the salted duck eggs on the car are specially counted, no one is more, no one is not less, I thought that a gift for the New Year is a picture of auspicious and festive, who would have thought that others are trying to celebrate, but Jia Yi is here to slap the picture, and there are many of them, speechless and choked.

Beat up for two days during the New Year, Jia Yi was sad and indignant, decided to go home and never come out again, returned to Jiafu in Chang'an City, ready to give some New Year's bounty to the maids in the house, just arrived home, I found that the long-neglected Xun Qianmu was making lanterns, this kid since he knew that his brother actually entered the palace as a eunuch, the whole person has undergone a very big change, the kind of posture that the whole world owes him has long disappeared without a trace, full of guilt for the ten thousand cicadas, Since he learned to gamble, he has basically worked very little to make money, but now he is honestly making lanterns in Jiafu, originally two days later is the Shangyuan Festival, it is the best time to sell lanterns, from this point of view, this kid is still a bit of business acumen, but the lanterns he makes are really ugly to death, just a round tube, take out a can sell for two pennies is good.

"Planning to start earning money to support yourself?" Jia smiled and came to Xun Qianmu, who was sitting on the pony and making lanterns, reached out and picked up a lantern on the ground, and saw that the workmanship was still very good, so he asked with a smile.

"Thank you Lord for taking me in during this time, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to live until now, my brother is hard enough, I can't live on his relief all my life." Shun Qianmu finally realized his own position, and the first time he saw Jia Yi, he stood up from the mazar and bowed to Jia Yi, which was something that he couldn't even think of before.

"Do it yourself, even if your brother has more food and clothing every month, if you don't know how to use that money, it's in vain, it's good to make lanterns by yourself, no matter how much you earn, it's also your own money, and it's not safe to spend it."

Shun Qianmu thought so, nodded, and was ready to continue to make money, there are only ten days left before the Shangyuan Festival, and if you do more, you can earn more.

Looking at the busy appearance of Xun Qianmu, Jia Yi smiled slightly, there is a way that the prodigal son will not change his money, since Xun Qianmu is ready to start again, then he should reach out to help him, even if it is for Xun Qiancida, this favor should also help.

"Qianmu, the way to make money is simple and simple, it is difficult to say that he is difficult, it is also difficult, in fact, it is completely on an idea, as long as your ideas can be completely different from other people's ideas, then you will be able to stand on the initiative, and making money will become logical, so, don't think that you are just working hard, think about how to make money before doing it, and after thinking about it, you will inevitably receive twice the result with half the effort."

Ten thousand wood frowned when he heard this, the lantern, it is nothing more than a beautiful and good-looking, what other novel ideas can there be, he has very few things to touch, and the things he knows are even less pitiful, but the perennial wandering life has also allowed him to see a lot of various lanterns, the latest is a kind of lamp that has been seen in the countryside, it can fly to the sky, it is very magical, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Sir, I once saw a lamp in the countryside that can fly into the sky, but I have seen it, but I can't do it, and I ask the sir, please help me."

There is only one kind of lamp that can fly to the sky, that is, Kong Ming lantern, since Shi Qianmu opened his mouth, Jia Yi smiled, and was ready to help him, although there will be all kinds of lanterns on the Shangyuan Festival, but Kong Ming lantern, which only reappeared in the world after many years, has never appeared in Chang'an City.

Finding paper, Jia Yi pointed to Xun Qianmu, asked him to make a lampshade according to the appearance of Kong Ming lantern, fixed a small wooden stick with silk thread, put a small candle on the wooden stick, propped up the lamp paper, and after lighting it, the originally dry and shriveled lamp was quickly supported by the hot air, and after a while, it had become a beginning to float and sink up.

Under the gaze of Xun Qianmu, Kong Ming Lantern finally lived up to expectations and slowly flew up, but this Kong Ming Lantern flew up not one meter high, Jia Yi stretched out his hand and patted it, and the lantern quickly burned, and after a while, it turned into paper ashes on the ground, and he was stunned and didn't understand why Jia Yi did this.

"There are still ten days before the Shangyuan Festival, since I know that this lamp can be made, I will start to hurry up and do it, don't let him show it in front of people, and wait until the Shangyuan Festival, take it out and sell it, wouldn't it be a blockbuster, and then the money will make a lot of money, this is called a trade secret, if you let others know, and find a way to make Kong Ming lanterns, do you still make this money?"

Hearing this, Shi Qianmu's eyes lit up, bowed to Jia Yi, and then began to quickly make it according to the production method of Kong Ming lanterns, compared to the old-fashioned lanterns, the production method of Kong Ming lanterns is undoubtedly much simpler, just one day's work, Ten Thousand Wood made more than ten, this is still the result of the first day of not being very skilled, I believe that tomorrow, there should be more output.

After giving a reward of money to everyone in Jiafu, Jia Yi returned to the manor directly, and did not keep his family like anything during the New Year.

Back at home, the family was discussing the matter of going back to Chang'an to see the lanterns during the Shangyuan Festival, and as soon as Jia came back, Lin Ruyu took Lin Meiyu and Li Yundi and began to pester Jia Yi to discuss.

"Then go and see, what a big deal, there is still a long time before the Shangyuan Festival, pack up, go to everything that has nothing to do, and our family will have a good holiday."

Li Yundi should live in the princess's mansion according to the system, and Jia Yi should also be a concubine in the princess's mansion, but there is always an example of things, that is, Lin Meiyu, with her previous credit for taking smallpox in danger, since Li Er agreed to give her a request to marry Jia Yi, there is no big problem in allowing Ruyang to live in the manor with Jia Yi.

Of course, those nosy envoys and officials inevitably heard another gust of impeachment after getting the news, but it's a pity that the one who is now the imperial envoy is Ma Zhou, who has learned his skills here with Xin Guangmao, and he doesn't need Jia Yi to go out in person, Ma Zhou directly waved his hand and only said: "People's own family affairs, mind your." "Let those imperial envoys who are still preparing to impeach Jia Yi all honestly shut their mouths.

Jia Yi was very puzzled by Li Er's always liking to put the people who had just been promoted on the official position of inspecting the imperial envoy, but this matter was not in Jia Yi's charge, and the people Li Er mentioned were all people who were good friends with Jia Yi, so Jia Yi didn't think much about it.

Soon the Shangyuan Festival is coming, and the family, who had already begun to prepare and clean up, soon loaded all the old and young into the carriage and rushed towards Chang'an City.

Shangyuan Festival is a traditional Chinese national festival, and even Li Er can only announce that the curfew will be postponed to midnight during Shangyuan Festival, giving people enough time to enjoy the lanterns to the maximum.

Eating Lantern Festival on the Shangyuan Festival is also a tradition, Jia Yi found a lot of glutinous rice in the world, all of them were made into Lantern Festival for him, all kinds of flavors are available, because there are too many to do, the family must not be able to eat, so they started to send to each household again, but there is a lesson in giving gifts during the New Year, this time Jia Yi directly put the power of gift-giving on Jia Er's body.

When Jia Yi returned with a full load, Jia Yi almost didn't come out in one breath and went back, people just can't compare, Jia Yi gave gifts to people, all he got was a slap in the face, Jia Er went to give gifts, but what he got was a car with a car of return gifts, and the gap between people is really not ordinary.

Li Yundi was full of depression after seeing Jia Yi seeing so many gifts, Ying Ying smiled and walked up to Jia Yi, and said softly: "Husband, please let go, your kind of treatment is not something that everyone can have, you look at the nobles of Manchang'an, who gives gifts and gets the same tribute, only you are really treated as a nephew by them, not to mention that all the gifts are accepted, and you are not treated as an outsider at all, this is a special honor." ”

Jia Yi knew that this was the case, but he couldn't turn around this bend, and finally let out a long sigh helplessly, and directly put this matter down, just be beaten, anyway, when I didn't give gifts before, I didn't suffer less.

As night falls, the flow of people in the Chang'an City market has begun to increase, as long as there are people in the whole Chang'an City, there will be countless lanterns, take a look, you will find that the whole person has stood in a sea of lights.
