Chapter 56: Finally able to get out of the house
"Come on hot pot, today is another day full of vitality." Early in the morning, Lu Zhe saw the hot pot and his apprentice Dingming in a cordial fight, in the winter, Lu Zhe held a folding fan and shouted 666 happily next to him.
That's right, it's a folding fan, all the students who have crossed over, if you travel to the Tang Dynasty and still want to use the folding fan to pretend to be forced, you can also give up this plan.
The folding fan came from the Southern Dynasty, and it is said that Xie Jin made it at the beginning, but in view of the fact that China's hundreds of industries have a habit of finding their own ancestors, Lu Zhe still doesn't believe it, but in the Southern Dynasties, folding fans appeared in the hands of a large number of entertaining literati.
Lu Zhe also thought that there was no folding fan in this dynasty, because he was going to participate in the Shangyuan Guanyu Meeting, Lu Zhe suddenly thought of the folding fan, so he secretly took a few hot pot rations and ran to the craftsman's house in the United Military Mansion and asked him to make a folding fan for himself.
Unexpectedly, as soon as people heard it, they told him that he couldn't do this himself, because there was no silk silk, and Xiao Lang Junru wanted this 'zĒu) fan, so he could go outside and buy one.
Lu Zhe, who thought he could rely on this to pretend to be a wolf with a big tail, was completely disappointed at this time, so he honestly ran to the Mu family trading house with a bottle of spirits and got a folding fan back.
Yes, he can leave the mansion, the day after Master Yan came, Xue Fengyi disappeared, and those who disappeared with him were Niu Duzhong and some people in the Tongjun Mansion, which should be the implementation of Niu Jinda's plan to reach the army site mountain.
Therefore, the "Panhuan" journey of Lu Zhe and others has finally come to an end. Lu Zhe, who was freed, didn't have much to go, because it would be the Shangyuan Fish Festival in a few days, so he had to continue to stay in the Tongjun Mansion.
During this period, Lu Zhe also carried spirits and went to the Mu family's trading house, of course, buying a folding fan was just by the way, he asked the Mu family to send a letter to the village, although last time Mu Seventeen said that he had explained the situation to the shadow heron who was responsible for contacting the outside of the mountain, but Lu Zhe was still worried about the cows and chickens in the village, so he dictated the content and asked Dingming to help write a letter for him to take back to the village. The letter briefly explained his situation and the use of these lees. Let Dingming, who was ghostwritten on the side, secretly admire on the side, his own master really has something, no one was willing to ask for it, and he had to pay for people to pull away the wine lees, but in the hands of the master, not only can make wine, but also can be used to feed livestock. From the small to the big, it seems that the knowledge in this division is really extremely profound. Yesterday, I was still doubting whether the knowledge of the master that Lu Shi said was really as powerful as he said, but I didn't expect that a small wine lees could be used by Lu Shi to such an extent.
There were a lot of gifts sent with the letter, which Lu Zhe bought with the money from collecting wine lees, and Lu Zhe also sent nine of the ten Shu brocades back, leaving only the one that was stained by his side, saying that it was a family and making some clothes for everyone.
Lu Zhe came to Mu's trading house with the liquor and the letter, and happened to meet Mu Zhong who had returned from outside the city, and saw that Lu Zhe had done something new again, and Mu Zhong also took the liquor curiously.
I have to say that Mu Zhong, who likes green, although he is lacking in dressing, has an extremely developed sense of business, and after seeing the spirits brought by Lu Zhe, he suddenly thought of the sake lees he sent before.
"Although this wine has a strong flavor and is as clear as water, it is extremely spicy, and it is disliked by the Chinese people.
After tasting the taste of Lu Zhe's liquor, Mu Zhong still gave Lu Zhe a pertinent evaluation and politely offered to develop it with Lu Zhe.
This is Mu Zhong's evaluation of the bad liquor. Mu Zhong means that this kind of wine cannot be sold in China, and it has to be transported outside the customs, but the Tang Dynasty has very strict control over wine, and if it is transported to the border customs, the freight and labor costs are very high, and if it is sold expensive, no one will buy it, so it is of little significance.
Of course, he also mentioned, but you Lu Xiaolangjun can actually make wine from sake lees, this is also a business without capital, if you mix some water into this liquor, you can still sell it as a village liquor in large quantities and seize the civilian market.
Regarding the suggestion of Muzhong liquor mixed with water to seize the low-end market, Lu Zhe of course decisively refused. Because he knows that this is limited by the bad raw materials, if the good liquor made by the Tang people is distilled twice, I am afraid that it will not be able to sell at a sky-high price, and he plans to make some high-end brand liquor, as the pillar industry of Wuzhuang Guan.
Seeing Lu Zhe's refusal, Mu Zhong didn't care, in his opinion, the advantage of this kind of liquor is that there is no capital, and the rest is not enough, and dozens of catties of distiller's lees only produce a catty of wine, chicken ribs, this is his evaluation of the liquor liquor. If you want to make a large amount of wine from this lees, these five villages rely on this wine, but you can mix food and clothing.
Thinking of the hundreds of catties of sake lees sent into Wuzhuang Guan, Mu Zhong thought he had guessed the thoughts of this little Langjun.
How did Mu Zhong know that half of the dozens of catties of wine lees sent to the United Army Mansion were given to Niu Jinda, half was used by Lu Zhe as cooking wine, and the rest was used by Lu Zhe for Mu Shi.
The matter of liquor cooperation was put aside for the time being, the salt workshop of the Mu family firm had been repaired, and in a manor not far from the outskirts of Chenzhou, the refined salt produced every day simply made Mu Zhong feel frightened, and between this in and out, the price of salt had increased several times, so Mu Zhong put down the affairs of the head office and concentrated on taking care of the salt in Chenzhou.
After talking to Lu Zhe for a long time about how to fully roll out the sale of salt, Mu Zhong was completely convinced about the distributor system proposed by Lu Zhe, and after hearing the news that Lu Zhe was going to participate in the Shangyuan Fish Viewing Meeting with Xue Fengyi on behalf of the Tongjun Mansion, Mu Zhong had a strange expression, and then said that this is a grand event in Chenzhou, in which many dignitaries and nobles have no chance to participate, and their partners can participate, and he is also honored, Xiao Langjun can rest assured, everything needed to participate in the meeting, Wu Mu's bag.
Good! I just like your style of being a local tyrant who doesn't take money as money, Lu Zhemei thought. So, when Lu Zhe left the Mu firm, Lu Zhe took two brand-new brocade robes, wore a piece of jade around his waist, and inserted a folding fan in his waist.
Of course, he also asked for a lot of the four treasures of the study, especially paper, and Lu Zhe took a lot of it, the reason was to practice calligraphy.
Mu Zhong knew which of Lu Zhe's hands lacked a pen and few bad words, and he thought of the fine salt of the white flowers, so he waved his long sleeves and asked a servant to carry two pieces of paper, plus the four treasures of the study, and other things, to help Lu Zhe bring back the unified army mansion.
Seeing the paper, Lu Zhe was also very happy. Finally able to write on paper and wipe your butt. After coming to the Tang Dynasty for so long, I used bamboo chips to hang after I finished the tuba, which is even more annoying, the bamboo pieces are still washed and used repeatedly, if you in the wild in winter and squat for a long time, you really have to use the stick that Guo Degang said.
Speaking of paper, there is white paper in this era, called ash paper, but it is a little expensive, and there is also rice paper, but it is similar to the birth of the later generations, and the price is also expensive.
However, there are still high-end papers in this era, such as the so-called five-five cloud sticks, caviar sticks, quicksand paper, etc., that is, the ancient working people of our country mobilized wisdom to add gold and silver powder or other to the paper, which is no different from the high-end paper of later generations, but it is extremely expensive, and only the children of the family can afford it.
Lu Zhe's biggest gain from going down the mountain was not to accept Dingming's apprentice, but to find a copy of "Cangjie", which is where Daqin Li Si lived, this name looks very atmospheric, but it is actually a Mongolian reading book in the Tang Dynasty, teaching children to read and write, during this time in the Tongjun Mansion, Lu Zhe was finally able to convert his own simplified Chinese characters into traditional Chinese.
However, he was still in the "Panhuan", and he was embarrassed to use so much paper, so after he was able to leave the house, he found a lot of straw paper for the first time and started his own calligraphy plan.
"Brother Xian really cherishes the words and paper." Yang Hongyi, who temporarily served as Lu Zhe's calligraphy teacher, watched Lu Zhe carefully put the Cai Hou paper that he had practiced on the windowsill and dried it, and then put it in a small box, and couldn't help but express his appreciation for Lu Zhe's attitude towards learning.
If he knew that Lu Zhe kept these papers to wipe his buttocks, I don't know if he would get rid of this crazy and insulting man for Sage Kong.
"Hey, hey, hey." Looking at the more and more straw paper in the box, Lu Zhe was also very happy that his chrysanthemums would not suffer in the future.
Lu Zhe, who had finished practicing his calligraphy, found that Dingming was still beating up national key protected animals, so he couldn't stand it anymore, and yelled outside, "Dingming, stop fighting, come in quickly, fight!" ā
"Yes, Master Lu." Dingming also shook his head helplessly, jumped out of the circle in the panda's happy eyes, and walked into Lu Zhe's room.
"The old rule, one article and one handful, five bombs capped. Walk up. Lu Zhe immediately took out a stack of pokers carved from bamboo, and the three of them immediately fought the landlord.
