Chapter 763: What a Fan Tower
Lu Chengqi noticed that he was selling some gadgets, which were equivalent to ancient toys. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info For example, rattles, Kong Ming locks, paper harriers, bird whistles (a kind of whistle), clay figures, cloth dolls, empty bamboos, hanging tigers, large lion (and hanging tigers are both a type of mask), jumping white rope (skipping rope), playing chickens (shuttlecock), nine rings, backgammon...... Lu Chengqi thought that he was about to become a father, and his heart moved, and he asked, "Then little brother, you are setting up a stall here, do you have to pay money?" ”
"Yes, why not? One is the booth of the Great Solemn Temple, which has to be paid for renting; The second is commercial tax, and there are household officials who come to collect ......" The hawker knew everything, Lu Chengqi nodded, knowing that the household department was still quite loyal.
"Then does anyone dare to bully the market?"
The peddler smiled: "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, which one has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall and dares to mess around like this?" It's those officials who have a lot of rules. ”
"Then how much money did you sell, and the household department doesn't know, how can you have a tax law?" Lu Chengqi was very puzzled.
"The officials don't know that just like the booth fee, this commercial tax is also fixed. A good booth should be paid more; The stalls inside are less to pay. ”
Lu Chengqi nodded, it is okay to charge according to the stall, and save trouble: "Then how much money does the little brother have to pay in total?" ”
"Not much, not much, it's about 100 cents. At the end of the day, I can earn two or three times of money, and in addition to these, I can also earn a lot, and I can support my family......"
Lu Chengqi nodded, this tax rate can be regarded as humane. Quite interestedly, he picked up a Kong Ming lock and looked at it, and said, "Little brother, my children are about to be born, so let's help you." Pickaxe, buy these things, one piece at a time! ”
The peddler was overjoyed: "Thank you, official! ”
Originally, the peddler didn't intend to solicit business, but he just thought that someone would come up to talk, and he would be happy to deal with it. After all, it's almost noon, and the adults who take their children out to play go home to make a fire or eat at the foot shop, where will they go to the temple fair? The temple fair is really lively at night, when the lights are bright. Adults are happy to take their children out to play at the end of the day. Most of the people in Chang'an are relatively well-off, and some small toys are still willing to be bought for children.
But this peddler never thought that the boy in front of him in luxurious clothes also had a child, although he was still in his mother's womb, but this also made the hawker who had always had vicious eyes lose his eyes. However, he unintentionally planted willows to achieve a business, and he naturally would not push the God of Wealth out. enthusiastically made a cloth bag for Lu Chengqi and packed all these gadgets into it. After the goods and money were paid, the hawker sent Lu Chengqi and his party away with a smile on his face, and then happily returned to the stall, thinking about how much money he had just made.
The business just now has already made three times of money, if this kind of big customer comes to help every day, wouldn't it be possible to buy a shop in Chang'an City soon? The peddler shook his head, knowing that he was daydreaming, how nervous the bunk in Chang'an City was! Don't say that if you buy it, it's rent, and the rent can't bear it!
Lu Chengqi didn't want to squeeze in, the latest gadgets of the temple fair were always around the temple gate. Although the flow of people at the temple fair has dropped a lot near noon, it is still crowded with people. It's cool and good, it's summer, and you must be sweating profusely when you squeeze in, and you can't draw it!
"Childe, it's noon, do you want to go back?"
Wang Yanchen kept frowning, nervously looking at the crowd coming and going, as if he saw everyone looking like an assassin. Lu Chengqi is still unsatisfied, he is finally lazy, where is he willing to return to the palace so soon? He is not Zhu Yuanzhang, he is the same as a model worker, and he "clocks in and goes to work" on time every day. Even if it's an iron man, you have to take a break and relax, don't you?
"What's the hurry, it's still early!"
Lu Chengqi spread out the folding fan in his hand, and felt a hint of coolness: "It's too hot here, it's time to have lunch, so let's find a restaurant to eat!" ”
The emperor has an order, where do these people dare to disobey? Gao Hao asked cautiously, "I don't know which restaurant Childe wants to go to?" ”
"I often hear that Chang'an Fan Lou is full of Beijing teachers, but I want to taste it, is it an exaggeration...... the implication is naturally to go to Fan Lou for lunch. Gao Ho was also clever and hurriedly led the way in front. This is also the reason why Lu Chengqi doesn't want to replace Gao Hao, this little eunuch's mind turns quickly, and he is a very good helper.
Fan Lou is quite far from here, Lu Chengqi and his entourage waited for the public carriage next to the "station", and after throwing a few copper coins, they found a place to sit down. There were quite a few passengers in the long carriage pulled by two horses. But when they saw the imperial guards with the swords, many people consciously got up and gave way. Lu Chengqi frowned, and said loudly: "Sit down, don't give up your seat!" ”
Seeing that this "Yanei" does not seem to be a ferocious person, some old people dare to take their seats. And the young passengers, saying nothing, refused to sit down.
Lu Chengqi thought helplessly: "If you want to truly experience the people's feelings, you still have to leave these imperial guards behind." "But he had experienced an assassination, and he didn't dare to hold it up like this. Who doesn't have anyone in the world, not to mention that there are many path-cutting thieves in this era, if they are killed and overlooked, wouldn't they die in vain?
Finally arrived at the destination, after Lu Chengqi and his party got out of the car, they raised their eyes and saw a magnificent restaurant. What is different is that this restaurant occupies a very wide area, there is a courtyard in front of the door, in front of the courtyard is an archway, on the book "Fan Lou" two regular script characters, next to the archway is a couplet "Qu Xie good wind comes, happy to hear the sound of the book, write the heart of the piano; On the crescent moon of the small building, look at the smoke cage tower courtyard and the Biying pavilion. "The five floors face each other, each with a flying bridge railing, light and dark communication.
"Good word!"
Lu Chengqi secretly applauded, such a "Fan Lou" can be regarded as the Fan Lou in his mind, and it really deserves its name! No wonder the literati often linger here, this garden-like restaurant, Chang'an is afraid that there is only this one!
"Liang Yuan sings and dances, and the wine is like a knife to relieve sorrow. I remember how happy it is, and the lights are on the Fan Tower in the middle of the night. Sure enough, it lives up to its name! Lu Chengqi first sighed that the owner of this Fan Lou is really rich, in this Chang'an City, where every inch of land is expensive, he actually built such a large piece of land and a high-rise courtyard, and he just made a restaurant, which shows his courage. But as far as Lu Chengqi knows, this Fan Lou was handed down from the ancestors, and it was there in the previous dynasty.
Sigh to sigh, the Five Organs Temple is going to rebel. Lu Chengqi didn't stay long, and stepped directly into the courtyard.
"Guest officer, please inside, eat or sharp?"
Xiao Er ran out to greet him diligently, all because Lu Chengqi was dressed luxuriously. This little er's eyes are also vicious, and he knows that Lu Chengqi is a rich man at a glance. Indeed, Lu Chengqi sits in the imperial village, and he is the richest person in the world.
"Come at this time, can you sharpen it?" It is rare that Lu Chengqi is in a good mood and joked. (To be continued.) )
