Chapter 65: Bathing is important

For the future, Li Chen hopes that he will save enough money in the middle of the day, so that he can find a storefront, and then he will open the Song Dynasty's Dewashe, and then he will be able to make money every day.

It's not just a storefront, but he has a lot of ideas to rely on the storefront to realize. Like this, a car loaded with belongings is running around, and it can't grow anyway. This is not modern, you can drive that kind of fast food truck, he even borrowed the car from others.

Achieving this medium-term goal will depend on short-term planning. And the short-term plan, take the kind of puppet show that he has today, he has found some problems that must be improved. At the beginning, it was decided to set up a stall in three days, on the one hand, in the hope of serving as an advertisement.

In this era, there are no newspapers or broadcasts, and they can be used for propaganda, and they rely entirely on word of mouth, and word of mouth needs time to ferment and brew.

For the puppet show, he thought a lot about it at the beginning. The puppet show needs a white curtain, and then the shadow of the puppet is still on the white cloth with the light from behind.

Of course, the Tang Dynasty did not have modern incandescent lamps available, so he used a very long, very thick candle, and then circled a windshield around it, which could play the role of blocking the wind, so as not to be blown by the wind and affect the audience, and it could also play the role of spotlighting, focusing the light on the white curtain. A large candle on the left and right to ensure a stable light source.

In addition, it is chosen under a tree, which is less affected by the sun. Its practical sun is the easiest way, but the sun will go, and what if there is no sun? So, simply use candles. It's so big that a candle costs a few hundred dollars.

Candles are all problems first, so expensive..., their hard work is only 500 Wen a day, almost a candle money, although it burns less than a third, but if it is this standard every day in the future, they do it for three days, and it is just to earn a candle money... It's not going to work, it's going to have to be figured out.

Secondly, he is very tired and hoarse, so this is not good. Relying on her alone to say desperately, she didn't make much money, and I'm afraid her voice will be wasted. In the short term, he had to take care of his throat, but fortunately, he thought that he would find a problem, and three days was enough for him to rest.

In the medium and long term, he does not intend to give up this career, he is bound to hire someone, invite someone who can speak well, and he will be responsible for providing the subject matter.

Well, let's determine the short-term first, and then we can slow down in the medium and long term. Thinking of the medium and long-term plans, Li Chen thought of Xiaohong again, and he was very happy that Xiaohong came to cheer today. Xiaohong wore a men's dress today, saying that it is a men's style, but in fact, it can still be seen that there are some feminine characteristics, such as pants, which are bright and soft, and women's pants are relatively soft, which look playful and cute on the whole. Li Chen feels that this kind of clothing is not so much a men's style as a neutral dress.

In fact, Xiaohong is not a special case, people say that women in the Tang Dynasty were more open, this sentence is true, women dare to wear men's clothes on the street, it is a kind of normality, not a peculiar solitary.

Xiaohong is a maid, and she came out with the hostess in her costume, Li Chen naturally saw the place where he lived, he had only heard of it and had not seen Yang Er.

I seem to be a little rude, I don't seem to have visited the master of the house these days. In the past, the injury was not healed, but now that the injury is healed, I should find every opportunity to thank you. Li Chen said to himself.

said that he was a visit, but in fact, he wanted to see what female professional workers in the Tang Dynasty looked like, because although he saw Yang Er today, he didn't see anything at all.

Yang Er wore a brightly colored Hu suit, with various gauze hats, covering his face, which made Li Chen very disappointed, didn't he say that the Tang Dynasty was a bold woman? What kind of gauze hat to bring, isn't it fashionable to show your head? Tang Dynasty women, it seems that they can be worn or not...

Li Chen could only guess from his body shape that Yang Er should be a beauty. How so? The figure is slender and plump, women in the Tang Dynasty regard plump as beauty, so she is a beauty....just kidding, but from Li Chen's modern point of view, Yang Erde's figure is really good, what kind of plump type is it. Li Chen actually doesn't like women who are too thin, like Madou, who is too thin, and they are not ribs.

'It's so fragrant.... At this time, Xiaohu's voice interrupted Li Chen's thinking, Li Chen looked at the place where Xiaohu said, and at a glance, his index finger moved, only to see a small vendor on the side of the road, a round frying pan in front of him, there should be a charcoal fire underneath, and now there are bursts of heat and aroma

'Owner, what is this, how do you sell it?' Li Chen stopped the car, and then walked to the small stall on the side of the road, "This is a public cake, a piece of penny, a large piece of money counts you six yuan." A large sheet is a whole piece, and then cut into eighths, and one piece is 1/8 sheet.

'Here's four, forget it, just give me a whole piece.' Li Chen originally only wanted four sheets, but thinking that dinner was about to be eaten, he would just take this as dinner and simply ask for a whole one. This amount is small, and the dough that has been fermented is quite amazingly swollen.

I used to think that I would have to eat a full cake. Xiaohu was pushing the cart while eating all over his face, green onions and crumbs. In fact, it was not only him, but several people were full of food.

"Why is it called Zhigong Cake?", Li Chen took a big bite, and ate bad habits while walking, Li Chen would not eat like this before, but now, he always feels that it is enough to eat like this.

Zhigong cake is actually a green onion cake. This kind of cake is nothing, but the dough is filled with chopped green onions, and it is found in many places. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the book of agriculture recorded more than a dozen kinds of cakes.

'Does no one know?' …。 This kind of food that is not named after the material and the way it is made, Li Chen feels that there should be a story behind it, but these three little lights will eat it, "I should have asked the stall owner just now..." ’

I know. Ah Xiang wiped the corners of her mouth, "I heard Sister Xiaohong say that this branch cake became popular because Lu Chasheng loves to eat it." ''Lu Chasheng's nickname Zhigong? Li Chen said strangely, although he was not familiar with Lu Yu, but in his impression, Lu Yu did not have the nickname of Zhigong.

In fact, it will be called Zhigong cake, which has something to do with Buddhism. Because there was a high monk in the Jin Dynasty, Zhixun Zen Master, he was famous because of his profound Buddhism. He loves to travel around, and he will carry dry food with him, which is a gonggong cake. In the Tang Dynasty, because the tea saint Lu Yu liked to eat this kind of cake, it spread.

'Green onion cake, after all, is not a scallion pancake. I really want to eat scallion pancakes. Okay, look for a chance...', Li Chen was full, clapped his hands, and cleared the crumbs from his hands. Eating this green onion cake aroused his homesickness.

My mother is very good at making scallion pancakes, and the cakes are golden and buttery, and fragrant, which is even more delicious than the sale. The taste of this green onion cake is still different from that of modern scallion pancakes, and Li Chen feels that the difference lies in the oil.

This biscuit is used on a frying pan to be regarded as baking. Slowly stuff him, slowly cook, and then it will slowly swell.

Scallion pancake, just by hearing the name, there is an oil. The difference is in how much oil, and some use a lot, almost just fried cakes. The Li family makes relatively little oil, which can be regarded as frying. Li Chen still knows how to do it, when his mother makes it, he will help knead the dough, and he knows the process well, he decided to make scallion pancakes after he has his own store, which will definitely be very popular. The popularity of Cong oil cake is far higher than that of dry fried green onion cake.

'It's almost home, finally. Li Chen looked a little familiar with Deli Fang, and knew that it was almost there, "When you go home, boil water and take a bath first." Li Chen decided not to pursue why the green onion cake was called a branch cake. Everything will wait until you have your own store.

'Ah~~ Don't, it's too troublesome to take a bath, and you have to boil hot water. "I don't want to take a shower early, I hate to take a shower." Hearing that they were going to take a bath, Xiaohu and the puppy complained loudly, and the puppy directly objected.

'No, if anyone doesn't take a shower before going to bed today, I'll wash them myself with a bucket of cold water. Li Chen chirped. Bathing is a problem. When he was in Changshou Temple, Li Chen didn't notice it, and when he came to Xuzhou, he found that the Tang people didn't take a bath.

It's not that you don't take a bath, it's that you have trouble taking a bath. To carry water to wash, a person has to wash a lot of water, and it takes a lot of effort to carry it alone. Not to mention, in winter, it takes a lot of firewood to heat the water first. Because it's so troublesome, many people only wash it once every few days.

'Can I go to the bathhouse?' Ah Xiang asked, 'Is that okay?' We were tired all day and had to boil water, so troublesome. Ah Xiang's big eyes flashed with anticipation, girls love to be clean, and she washes more often.

'Well, everyone is tired from the day today, so let's go to the bathhouse and take a shower.' Li Chen thought about it for a while and decided to have a luxury. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a bathhouse, and the most famous bathhouse was the Huaqing Pool where the hot spring water skiing washed the cream.

The bathhouse was a very important facility in ancient times, and in the Tang Dynasty, it was an important place to exchange feelings, of course, it was not to say that everyone was dating in the bathhouse, but it should be said that it was a place to chat and enhance feelings, and even the emperor would take the lead, so that everyone could take a bath and talk about business at the same time.

'Yay~. Little Tiger and Little Dog cheered, "You two can wash me carefully, if you can't wash it clean, I'll help you two shed your skin." Li Chen pinched his knuckles, made a sound, and looked extremely vicious at first.

If you don't keep an eye on it, these two leather children, let them fetch water and take a bath, but the only way to do it is to fetch water for Ah Xiang to wash, and they will get wet with water.

'Yaser. The two raised their hands and saluted, as long as they didn't have to carry their own water to boil water, it was no problem. Yesir, together with the raising of his hand and salute, Li Chen deliberately gave it to them, it didn't mean anything, it was just a bad taste.

'Shall we go to that bathhouse?' The puppy asked, 'Zhang's got it.' ''Yes. Sanxiao began to discuss where to go to take a bath.
