Chapter 7 Talks

Effective and durable things are always easy to be popular, since Lin Fan launched this kind of thing, like the spread of the virus, mahjong has spread wildly throughout Chang'an City, from the Lin Mansion to the palace, to the people, to the entire Chang'an City, it only took half a month.

Now, in the palace, Boss Li has another entertainment to pastime, when the scattered dynasty is fine, he spends his days with several of his women rubbing mahjong, since he has mahjong, his life is much more moisturized and full than before, and the concubines in the harem are no longer so lonely, they will not think about who to fix today, whether His Majesty will come to sleep tonight, and now His Majesty will spend the night there tonight They are not very red-eyed, and a few good sisters make up a table of mahjong fun, and gradually occupy the worry of whether Your Majesty will come to sleep with you.

The palace maids and waiters in the palace also played mahjong, for this kind of entertainment, the eldest grandson turned a blind eye, she was in charge of the harem, and would not limit the life of the palace people to death, not to mention that after the entertainment of mahjong, the life of the palace people in the palace was also more nourishing.

Emperor Li Yuan is now living faster, he originally planned to sit and eat and wait for death, but he didn't expect that before he died, he could have such a fun thing as mahjong to accompany him through his old age, and his life was even happier.

The families of civil and military officials and even ordinary people now have at least one pair of mahjong, and some families often have three or four pairs of mahjong in their homes, and such a large demand for mahjong has also increased the number of mahjong workshops, for this, Lin Fan admires the wisdom of Tang businessmen, and they find that the efficiency of business opportunities does not have to be bad in later generations.

Soon after the advent of mahjong, businessmen with flexible brains set up mahjong parlors. As a result, some dignitaries especially like to go to the mahjong parlor to gamble money, and it is always boring to go to someone's house to gamble. Only by gambling with strangers can you have the true feeling of playing mahjong and the fun of gambling.

For the series of side businesses set off by mahjong, Lin Fan did not pursue it, this was the result of the intelligence of the Tang people, and he should not make trouble.

Mahjong parlors are all over Chang'an, all the streets, and now the most lively places are not teahouses, taverns, and brothels. It's a mahjong parlor, which is basically overcrowded here, in Datang. Gambling has just started, and it has not caused much harm, and the government does not restrict this behavior, because they themselves are enjoying the fun of gambling. Even the emperor is like this. Not to mention the common people.

The prosperity of the mahjong hall has also driven the food business, some people who sell things are basically gathered at the door of the mahjong hall, providing food to fill the stomach for the people who enter and exit the mahjong hall, once these people who play mahjong enter the state of gambling, they often forget to sleep and eat, it is impossible to go home to eat, and it is not realistic to go to the restaurant to eat. The most convenient thing is to eat some small food to fill your stomach.

The mahjong wind is not only blowing in Chang'an City, it is now blowing around the periphery. It won't be long before mahjong will become an entertainment project for the entire Datang and even neighboring countries.

Mahjong can make such a big change in Chang'an is what Lin Fan expected, he is very pleased to make the Tang people make money, but the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, and he can't stop the smashing incidents that often occur in mahjong parlors because of losing money.

What else can mahjong set off Lin Fan doesn't care, what he is most concerned about now is how to raise money to build a school, build Xinfang City, and the fifty-five students of the current Lin Academy.

For these students are more and more satisfied, the new Chu Da is very hard-working, and very competitive, starting from literacy, although the foundation is worse than others, but diligence can make up for clumsiness, his diligence Lin Fan is still more certain.

For Chu Laohan's two children, Lin Fan felt that it was fair to them, teaching Chu Da to read and write, and teaching the second daughter to make pancakes, although the types were different, they had all done their best to help, and that was all they could do, no matter how much, Lin Fan didn't know what else to do.

The second daughter is also angry, and after learning the pancake technique learned from Lin Fan that day, she immediately made a big pot of pancakes when she went home, and sold it at the door of the mahjong hall the next day.

Everyone is busy, Chu Laohan is busy with farm work, the second daughter is busy making money, Chu Da is busy studying, everyone is living happily in their own world, although Lin Fan has not seen the second daughter with his own eyes, how Chu Laohan is, just from the smile on Chu Da's face and the good relationship with other classmates, it can be seen that their family is happy and happy.

Seeing Chu Laohan's family, as if seeing the home of the later generations, seeing the second daughter that day, Lin Fan seemed to see the shadow of the younger sister from her, when she was a child, the younger sister looked similar to the second daughter, but she was a little naughty and not simple, this is mainly because of the times, the times are different, and the situation of the children in each period is also different.

Therefore, Lin Fan has more attention to Chu Laohan's family than other villagers, but he is not so attentive that he visits him every day, he is a Hou Ye, he should have the appearance of a Hou Ye, and he has done undignified things, and it will be difficult to establish prestige among the Zhuang households in the future・・・・・・

I am in a good mood today, and I will call Lao He and Chen Laosan to the house in the evening to reminisce about the old days, there is nothing to entertain, only mahjong is served, mahjong is jade, and the palace Li Boss is at the same level, this is in order to thank Lin Fan for passing mahjong to the palace and specially sent Zhou Gonggong to send, a total of two pairs, all made of jasper, rubbing this kind of mahjong, sometimes Lin Fan feels that rubbing mahjong can still enjoy it like this, more weight than the kind of mahjong in later generations, there is a feeling.

"It's good to be an official, there is a jade mahjong sent by the emperor, smooth and crystal clear, tsk, it feels cool, Brother Lin, sell it to me, I am willing to pay as much as I want." Chen Laosan, who was holding mahjong and looking and touching, praised it and couldn't put it down.

Lin Fan immediately vetoed: "This jade mahjong is priceless!" ”

Lao He laughed and said: "What Lin Hou said is very true, this jade is a gift from the emperor, it is priceless, how can it be sold, if I don't sell it, even if it doesn't have to be offered at home, you say yes, Lin Hou?" ”

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Lao He, if you are an official, you will definitely be able to get the favor of the emperor." ”

Lao He smiled even more happily, but Chen Laosan gave him a 'contrived' cool word, and suppressed half of his good mood, everyone was just joking, Lao He didn't rest assured, everyone started to play mahjong after laughing for a while, and there was one less person, so he called Huo Lin'er, this kid is not fun to play.

After playing for two laps, Lao He looked at Lin Fan playfully and asked, "Lin Hou really just wants to catch up with us today, I don't think it's that simple, right?" ”

"That's right, Brother Lin, you have always come to us for something, this time it must be for a reason, as far as your virtue is concerned, I don't believe you have such a good intention, in order to catch up with the past, please let us rub such a good mahjong." Chen Laosan didn't believe it.

Lin Fan glanced at the two of them lightly and said with a smile: "Even if there is something, it is for your good." ”

"If there is an opportunity to make money, will you make it?" Without waiting for them to ask, Lin Fan threw out a brick.

"What chance?" Lao He and Chen Laosan spoke almost in unison, and a bright light immediately flashed in their eyes, looking forward to it.

"I want to build a Xinfang City・・・・・・" Lin Fan finished talking to the two of them about the establishment of Xinfang City and the establishment of a school, both of them were very excited, and felt that what Lin Fan said was very innovative, and they both expressed great interest.

"Brother Lin, then tell me how to use our existing limited funds to do this business, this is a big investment business, I'm afraid all our costs add up to not enough."

"Build in phases, take your time, after all, this is a big project, come, five cakes."

"Hahaha, take the money and take the money・・・・・・"

Lin Fan glared at Chen Laosan fiercely, still passed the money he had lost, and said angrily: "Come again!" I don't believe it, and I lose playing with you. (To be continued.) )
