Because of the rewards of the saints and concubines, there should be no problem in supporting a thousand families to harvest in the summer. What's more, when spring begins, you can grow vegetables. The more vegetables there are, the less staple foods are consumed. At that time, the business of selling ice is just entering the peak sales season, and with the input, I think there will be less pressure. It was also Xue Lang's first arrival, and his foundation in the Tang Dynasty was weak, so the troops who raised a thousand people felt a lot of pressure.

The entanglement of the mother and daughter of Wan Guifei in the palace will naturally not be known to people outside the palace. For example, Xue Lang, he doesn't know anything. In addition, the issue of increasing the income of the house, if he was in a hurry, Xue Lang had no clue for a while, so he didn't want to leave it for the time being. leisurely made an appointment with someone and went to the hot spring villa given to him by the saint.

Xue Lang is in Chang'an City, except for the Su family, he can be regarded as relatives and friends. You don't have to go to court, you don't have to go to work and do things, so you can naturally play without any burden.

Su's father and son still have to go to work on errands, but the female dependents have nothing to do, so Su Siniang came forward, called her mother and sister-in-law, took the children, and all went to Lishan Hot Spring to play.

Speaking of Lishan Hot Springs, the most famous is Huaqing Pond. It's just that Huaqing Pond was built by Li Longji, the son of a loser, and at this time, Li Longji and his grandfather have no shadows, so naturally there is no Huaqing Pond.

It's just that although there is no Huaqing Pond, there is no shortage of houses on Lishan Mountain. Since the Shang and Zhou dynasties, there have been people who have built houses in this place, and during the Qin and Han dynasties, there were emperors who built palaces here. Emperor Wen of Sui also built a palace here. As for the current Tang Dynasty martial arts, the Tang Dynasty was originally established, and Li Yuan and his son naturally had no intention of building a palace, and still used the palace built by Emperor Wen of the previous dynasty.

Lishan Hot Spring is known as the world's first hot spring. The location is the best, the spring is the largest, and naturally it is royal. In addition to the royal palace built here, the wealthy families who had the financial resources and power would also put a separate courtyard for bathing in their leisure time.

The hot spring villa where the saint rewarded Xue Lang is located quite well, next to the saint's palace, almost on a par with the families. The only drawback is that it is smaller than the villas of the major families, but the small ones are also limited. Anyway, Xue Lang felt that if he was in modern times, he would not be able to earn such a big villa in his lifetime.

The hot spring villa has stewards and miscellaneous servants, and the sage gave the hot spring villa to Xue Lang, and the stewards and servants were given to Xue Lang.

The steward of the villa had received the news that the master was coming to the villa yesterday, so he took someone to greet him at the gate of the villa early, and when Xue Lang's car arrived, he immediately went up: "Little Gaoshan, add to the steward of the hot spring villa, meet Da Lang, please Da Lang An." ”

Xue Lang didn't rush to call people up, he still knelt like that, looking at Gao Shan, about his early forties, his demeanor was quite respectful, seeing that Xue Lang didn't call him up, he became more and more respectful and careful.

Xue Lang looked at him for a while before he said, "Get up, is everything ready?" ”

Gao Shan said respectfully: "Back to Dalang, everything in the village has been cleaned up." Da Lang came for the first time today, so he took Da Lang to visit his own villa by the small one, familiar with it, okay? ”

"Okay, let's all go in first."

"Whoa."

The group entered the villa. Handed over the matter of packing and settling the luggage to the servant, and the group went to see the hot springs first-

There is only one spring, and there is no open-air hot spring, but two large rooms are built to cover the hot spring pools in the house. Separate men and women.

The hot spring is in the house, and Xue Lang said that it is really good. If you are an open-air bath built outside, in the cold weather in winter, wild beasts from the mountains will come down to compete with you for the hot spring pool. If there is some excrement or something, it will be even more sour.

These two hot spring pools are very large, not to mention soaking, even swimming in them is no problem. The bottom and all sides of the pond are made of blue-striped stones of the same size.

Although the villa is a wooden house, it is very elaborately built and well planned, and there is even a place to grow out-of-season vegetables using the hot springs. It's just that many vegetables have not yet reached China, and the varieties grown are limited, such as leeks, onions and garlic, spinach and eggplant, and nothing else. However, Xue Lang felt that it was enough to eat, and he should be content and not too picky.

Coming out of the vegetable patch, in the southeast corner of the yard to the sun, Xue Lang was surprised to find a clump of sugar cane! He turned his head directly and asked the steward: "Can Lishan grow sugarcane?" ”

Gao Shan was puzzled for a moment, but when he saw Xue Lang pointing to the sugarcane in the corner of the courtyard, he understood, and said, "It turns out that Da Lang is talking about chewing." ”

"What's this called? How to write"

Xue Lang asked curiously. Su Han on the side said: "Some people also call it Zhe." ”

As he spoke, he wrote on the ground with his feet. Xue Lang suddenly said: "The flower grower calls it sugar cane." ”

He also wrote on the ground.

Xue Lang asked, "Can Chang'an also grow sugarcane?" ”

Gao Shan hurriedly said: "Yu Dalang, you can plant, but there are few people who plant." ”

Xue Lang nodded. Guanzhong is a grain-producing area, the land is fertile, and sugarcane is not hungry, and there are not many people who grow it naturally. At this time, in addition to pressing juice and drinking water, sugarcane is mainly used for spring and winter sacrifices. Large families will plant some more, but not much.

Xue Lang felt that he had found a way to make money! However, it will take next year to produce output at the earliest, so there is no rush at this time.

Speaking of which, that is, in this year, the fifth year of Wude, the area of Guangdong, now called Lingnan, has been annexed to the Tang Dynasty. Now Xue Lang doesn't have any extra money on hand, otherwise, he can buy a large area of land to grow tropical crops, especially sugar cane. Not to mention anything else, it was no problem to be a sugar king in the Tang Dynasty.

If you talk about prosperity, the most prosperous place in the entire Tang Dynasty is Chang'an. Sugar was something that only the wealthy could consume in ancient times. Sugarcane is easy to store and transport, and opening a sugar workshop in Chang'an, not to mention becoming the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, at least, Xue Lang will no longer have to worry about raising the tribe in the future.

Xue Lang put his mind at ease and walked around the entire villa, and it was almost breakfast time. came out this time, and at Su Han's strong request, Ah Tuyou followed. When it's time to eat, naturally Ah Tu will do it, just picking some fresh vegetables. Thinking of having fresh vegetables to eat today, not only Su Han, but even Xue Lang couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Waiting for Ah Tu to cook, Xue Lang instructed Hexiang: "Hexiang, you send someone to call Ah Chen." ”

"Whoa."

Hexiang took the order and left.

After Hexiang took the order and left, Xue Lang said: "Hengyu, do you have the idea of having a property in the long term?" ”

Su Han said: "I am a lonely person, and I can buy property anywhere." However, it is best to be near the young sun so that it is convenient for me to eat. ”

Xue Lang couldn't laugh when he heard it, stretched out his hand to nod him, and said: "Since you are also willing to have a property in Changchang, then, I have a sweet career here, if Hengyu and Ah Lin are interested, they can do it together." ”

"Sweet cause? What do you mean by that? ”

Su Han asked curiously. Jiang Lin also looked at his brother curiously.

"Sugar!"

Xue Lang smiled: "I know a way to make sugar from sugar cane. Before the planting season comes, you can buy more fields, not two days of the best, just medium and low fields.

Yesterday, a relative or elder had a sudden cerebral hemorrhage, and I helped to send him to the hospital and stayed up all night. I went home and slept for a day, sighing, human life is so fragile.
