Chapter 23: Eating and Drinking Lazar

In later generations, Xi'an basically had two seasons a year.

Summer, winter.

Spring and autumn are exceptionally short, and it's no surprise that a week or two goes from shirts to down jackets, autumn pants to skirts.

The situation in Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty was quite similar, and after the Shangyuan Festival, the weather began to get warmer.

Towards February, new sprouts sprout from the willow trees on the banks of the river, and you can already see the green weeds in the farmland along the riverside.

Spring has arrived, everything is revived, this is a ......

Chen Yu's mind involuntarily appeared with the voice of Teacher Zhao Zhongxiang.

The spring of the ninth year of Wude came.

It's a thriving season.

A season of growth.

From winter to spring, in just a few days, Rong Niang changed from a little girl to a big girl.

In recent months, the food has improved, the nutrition is sufficient, and Rong Niang's size has grown a lot taller, from a little girl with a yellow face and thin muscles to a healthy and plump girl.

Especially when the sunflower first arrived, there was a layer of shy blush on his face, and he was no longer the innocent snack goods, and began to think of himself as a big girl everywhere.

Coupled with physiological reasons, the door has not been out recently, and the second door has not been stepped.

Chen Yu kept pacing on the bank of the Weihe River not far from his home, thoughtfully.

The men in the village stood in the distance, staring at Chen Yu pacing, scratching their ears and cheeks.

Brother Yu said that in the spring farming season, the way to make money is on the edge of the Wei River.

But what's there?

"What do you say?" Chen Yu turned around and asked.

"Rivers, trees, fields, and in a few days there will be peach blossoms, willows, lotus leaves, reeds..."

"Isn't it beautiful?"

"It's good-looking, but isn't it like this every year? What's so unusual? ”

Chen Yu shook his head helplessly and sighed: "That's what you're used to, in the eyes of the people in the city, maybe it's picturesque." ”

"City people?"

"On March 3rd, the weather was new, and there were many beautiful people on the waterside of Chang'an.

The state is thick and true, and the texture is delicate and even.

Embroidered Luo clothes shine in the late spring, and the golden peacock and silver unicorn are worn. ”

Chen Yu couldn't help but chant a few lines of poetry, and inadvertently "stoleped" the copyright of the poem Saint Du Fu.

However, the villagers don't seem to know how to appreciate it, and even have a misunderstanding.

"Brother Yu is missing a woman?"

"Every year in the spring, there are women in silk and satin by the Wei River, and Brother Yu is not..."

"Brother Yu, I have a way, that year I climbed on the top of the tree and saw the noble lady in the curtain...... There are also in the mulberry forest, and the big P...... of the white flowers"

I don't know which cheap billet is, and before he finished speaking, he was immersed in the fantasy of memories, and his heart was ape.

"Ahem!"

Chen Yu coughed twice: "What are you all thinking?" ”

"Brother Yu..."

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and then wondered: "What is the way to make money you are talking about?" ”

"If you want to make money from a person, you must know what people need and what they can't live without?"

"Food, clothing, shelter and transportation."

Chen Yu nodded: "That's right, but I think it's even more necessary to eat, drink and Lazar." ”

"That is, people cannot starve to death by thirst, let alone be suffocated by urine."

"Brother Yu, what does this have to do with making money after talking for a long time?"

Chen Yu said: "Of course it matters, in a few days, there will be many people in Chang'an City who will come here, and their eating, drinking, and Lasa will be our opportunity to make money." ”

"Brother Yu, when people in the city go out to play, they often bring food and drink...... As for Lazar, that makes money? ”

"When you travel, you can only eat some simple food, and there are few picnics, most of them are cold-burned, just to cushion the stomach, but the taste is limited.

What if there were people by the river who sold more delicate and delicious food, or they had a chic rustic flavor that they didn't usually see? ”

There is a reason why farmhouses are popular in later generations, and for city people who are accustomed to seeing big fish and meat, the simple things of farmhouses are more attractive.

Ancient times should be no exception, not to mention, Ju'anli has the entire Tang Dynasty quite scarce ingredients, as well as the most chic stir-fry cooking.

"Build a few thin pots, find all the kitchen women with good cooking skills in the village, and open a farmhouse restaurant in Juanli as soon as possible."

When everyone heard what Chen Yu said, they all moved.

There is a bean product workshop in the village, which is a sought-after commodity in Chang'an City, and the rich and noble families are still in short supply.

For ordinary citizens, if you can eat in Ju'an, you will definitely come in an endless stream and come here.

At that time, millet, miscellaneous grains, newly grown wild vegetables in spring, and lettuce can be put on the table to make money.

Although it is only a month before and after spring, it is just the time of agricultural leisure, and most of the diners from the city are rich and rich, and they can definitely make a small profit.

"Brother Yu, your idea of this farmhouse restaurant is good, we are looking for a place to build a wooden house and a bamboo hut by the river, and build a stove and a pot."

Chen Yu nodded and advised, "In addition, repair the latrine." ”

"Latrine?"

"No wonder Brother Yu said to eat, drink, and Lazar..."

"But... How do latrines make money? ”

"yes, where can't I pee in the open space by the river?"

Chen Yu shook his head helplessly: "Didn't anyone say that just now?" You can see it in the mulberry forest...... Even when it is easy to change clothes in the curtain, there are people who climb trees to peep.

In this way, a clean, airtight and private latrine should be very much needed by tourists, especially women. ”

After the Guanyin temple meeting that day, Chen Yu saw many women entering and leaving the woods next to the road, and he didn't think about it at first, but later realized that he was going to the toilet.

At that time, there were unscrupulous people who went to peep, and while Chen Yu scoffed, the idea of "eating, drinking, and Lazar" came to his heart.

"That's right."

"Are we going to build a latrine and charge for it?"

"That's right!"

"Brother Yu, visitors can take a few more steps and go to the farmer's house to borrow a latrine!"

"Are you sure that the ladies will not be fainted when they enter your latrine? Won't you feel nauseous and want to vomit? ”

Chen Yu's rhetorical question immediately attracted a laugh.

The villager was unconvinced and said, "The latrine is already filthy, so what's so strange about the smell?" ”

"So, if there was a hidden, clean latrine by the river, at least the women would be happy, right?"

Chen Yu asked, and without waiting for an answer, he continued: "The thatched toilet is built on the side of the restaurant, and a tea shed is built, and there is everything to eat, drink, and Lasa."

However, diners can use their own latrines; Wouldn't it be nice to be attracted to the food? ”

"Brother Yu, you're not mistaken, right? Restaurants and latrines built together? ”

"The smell, and the interest in eating?"

Chen Yu shook his head helplessly again: "Not all latrines are filthy and smelly.

Do as I say, so that you can see what the latrine looks like, clean, fresh and elegant, and you can even wash and bathe. ”

"Brother Yu, you're not kidding, are you?"

"When did I lie to you? Let's start working as soon as possible! ”

Chen Yu spread out a simple drawing, roughly talking about the design and arranging the division of labor.

Among the many villagers in Ju'anli are masons, carpenters, stonemasons, and even blacksmiths, all of which come in handy.

Li Zheng Laogen is responsible for the central scheduling and coordination, and his veteran experience has also found some problems in time.

"Brother Yu, in the spring, the water of the river is shallow, the riverbank is high, the water flows to a low place, I am afraid that it will not be possible to dig a ditch to divert water, this water source is ......"

Chen Yu couldn't help frowning, the most important thing in this "eating, drinking, and Lazar" design is the clear water source.

The water flows to a lower place, and it is not possible to dig a ditch, so ......

Wait a minute!

Can water only flow low?
