CHAPTER XXV
The next day, Li Bao went for a routine morning run to exercise and practice simplified tai chi. Because yesterday Li Bao's boxing skills to punish evil slaves showed his might, Hu San'er begged Li Bao to follow him to learn boxing, and Li Bao readily agreed.
After breakfast, Li Bao did not go to see Li Luo, because the emperor had government affairs to deal with in the morning, so he continued to update "Journey to the West". In addition to "Journey to the West", Li Bao also had to raid out the rules and regulations of the "Mei Yaya" pastry shop, and wait for Liang Hongmei to enter the palace that day and hand it over to her, so that she could prepare materials and recruit personnel in accordance with the regulations.
Since we plan to open a high-end food store, and the intended customers are the powerful people in Chang'an City, then all the products in the store must be made high. Even the packaging must be able to match the positioning and taste of the products in the store, and only then can the quality and grade of the "Meiyaya" brand be shown.
Now there is a famous brand star product of "Birthday Cake" in hand, so the packaging box of this "Birthday Cake" should be customized, and the material is made of high-grade wood such as mahogany and then engraved with auspicious elements such as Fulu Suxi. Then there are some small things, such as a wooden knife for cutting cakes, a small porcelain plate for sharing cakes, and edible instructions, because the customs of the Tang Dynasty are different from those in the West, so whether to add this candle or not, Li Bao tangled it for a while, and finally decided not to add it.
These are all done well, in order to prove the characteristics of "beautiful girls", which is refreshing and unforgettable. Only in this way can the magnates in Chang'an City flock to it, and they can feel that the pastries of "Meiyaya" are worth the money, and then form a word-of-mouth effect.
Li Bao wrote down all of the above in detail, wrote it into a manual, and handed it over to Liang Hongmei to operate and learn. Because Liang Hongmei came to the palace for a limited time, Li Bao didn't have so much effort to explain to her in detail. As long as she learns and then abides by it, then she will slowly understand.
In addition to the packaging, there are also training and operation manuals for the staff in the store, cleanliness and hygiene is the first standard, what work clothes and coats, masks and everything must be prepared, in view of the fact that white is an unlucky color in China, so Li Bao uniformly set the work clothes of the staff in the store to pink.
This is not only in line with the positioning of the brand "Meiyaya", but also the solid color overalls are easy to see once there are stains. In addition, the pink one is also easy to make people feel intimate, and this color is also the favorite of otaku **silk like Li Bao.
In addition to the pastry chef, all the sales staff are all beautiful women, so that customers can not only buy delicious pastries, but also have a full meal. Of course, there are also some bad tastes of King Li Bao in this, which are not enough for outsiders.
After thinking about all this, Li Baofen wrote a book all morning, and Ling'er obediently accompanied Li Bao's side, since Ling'er confessed last night, the relationship between the two has become more tacit. Li Bao was tired of writing, and Ling'er sent tea or a massage on her back in time, and Li Bao also felt good about such a comfortable life.
After Li Bao drove out the rules and regulations, he stretched his waist, saw that it was already noon, and asked Ling'er to order the meal, and during lunch, Li Bao specially called Zheng Ah Li and her apprentices to the dining hall. Here he wants to ask Zheng Ah Li about the teaching situation, and in addition, Zheng Ah Li will train the pastry chef first, and the chef's training should be put on hold.
Zheng Ah Li naturally promised to Li Bao's instructions. After Li Bao finished his instructions, he had a meal with everyone at ease, and during the banquet, he also said some words of encouragement to those students, and those students listened to Li Bao's words and the temptation of Li Bao's huge bonus, and they were all full of enthusiasm. They all expressed their determination to Li Bao, and Li Bao was also happy that these people could study hard so that they could start their own careers as soon as possible.
After lunch, Li Bao rested for a while and went to take a nap, and when he woke up from the nap, Li Bao asked Ling'er to wait and get up, and then prepared to meet Li Luo.
The distance from Jinluan Hall to Xianning Hall is not very far, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk. Li Bao and Hu Sanbao walked in the Daming Palace in winter, it is impossible for Li Bao to keep a low profile now, and the people in the palace now don't know that the sixth prince Li Bao is either deaf or blind.
Facing the pointing and pointing of so many palace people, Li Bao didn't know whether to be happy or worried. After all, he had just been favored by Li Luo, and he didn't have enough ability to be immune to all kinds of dark poisoning.
Through these years of understanding and Hu Sanbao's secret inquiry, Li Bao now has a clear understanding of the power in the palace, and the four nobles among the eunuchs are the most powerful faction in the palace and even in Chang'an City, and they hold the military power of the Shence Army.
Yang Gongqing and Tian Xianchen represent the Xuanhui Yuan system, and the other is in charge of the access control system and system of the entire imperial city. The power of these six eunuch giants is both rivalry and complex. Yang Gongqing of the Xuanhui Yuan and Yang Xuanyi, the privy envoy, are both in the Yang family's lineage, and the two giants are mutually supportive, and they are in the same spirit.
The two lieutenants of the Shence Army did not have much intersection with Li Bao, and the other privy envoy Liu Wenyue Li Bao did not meet either. Only Tian Xianchen and Li Bao have met, and the two sides have a good impression of each other, so they should be a strong reinforcement that can be befriended. In addition, Wu Yipin, the envoy of the North Courtyard of Xuanhui Academy, had already sent someone over to "secretly send Qiubo" to Li Bao. Li Bao thought that all he had to do now was to set up Tian Xianqi first, after all, his righteous son Tian Lingzi would become a great backer in the near future, so he must get close to him first.
If there is still a force in the palace that Li Bao has to be afraid of, it is Concubine Guo Shu. Although this woman is beautiful on the outside, she has a femme fatale heart, and Li Bao has to guard against her, after all, Li Bao gets Li Luo's favor, which will affect her grace and authority. And Guo Shufei is also suspected of harming his mother, Li Bao made up his mind, he must find a way to install some eyeliner in Guo Shufei, otherwise I don't know which day Li Bao died violently, Li Bao will really become the biggest shame in the history of crossing.
Li Bao was thinking on the road, and before he knew it, he arrived at the Xianning Palace, Li Bao and Hu Sanbao reported to the attendants guarding the door, and after a while, they let Li Bao in, but Hu Sanbao was stopped. Li Bao waved his hand and asked him to wait outside.
Li Bao went in, Li Luo was going to Shuanglu with Concubine Guo Shu, Li Bao saw Concubine Guo Shu, although he was jealous of her in his heart, but he couldn't show the slightest difference in his face. Respectfully salute.
Li Luo's interest today was very good, and he looked at the book in Li Bao's hand, and immediately became interested. "How did Rokuro get this "Journey to the West"? I flipped through it last night, who knew that I was fascinated, this legendary story book is very wonderful, although it is the story of Master Xuanzang's westward journey to learn scriptures, but how to start is all about a little monkey. This monkey is also very interesting, trying to shake the Jade Emperor's country is really beyond his strength and deserves to be suppressed under the Five Fingers Mountain, haha. ”
Li Bao naturally can't say that Wukong is a symbol of rebellion against the feudal emperor, in order to tie up Li Luo, he can only ignore his conscience and say playfully: "The reason why Bao is presenting this book to adults now is because for example, some clowns like Pang Xun and others today are trying to shake the Jiangshan Society of my Tang Dynasty. The end result, of course, was ruthlessly suppressed. ”
Li Yi was very happy to hear Li Bao say this, now in the Tang Dynasty, the rebellion provoked by Pang Xun in Xuzhou in the sixth year of Xiantong has been put down, and this matter is the greatest achievement of Li Luo's dynasty. Li Bao said this because he was angry about Li Luo's itch, and Li Yi was very complacent for a while.
Concubine Guo Shufei looked at Li Yi, who was intoxicated alone, and said in a coquettish voice: "The concubine also read this "Journey to the West", but from the perspective of the concubine, what Liulang said is not quite right, the Jade Emperor in the book was beaten by a little monkey and the Lingxiao Treasure Hall was about to collapse, if it wasn't for the Buddha's action, wouldn't the Jade Emperor be killed by the monkey?" ”
When Li Yi heard this, his face changed. The smug look just now is completely gone.
Li Bao looked at Concubine Guo Shu, and his heart was cold, you poisonous woman, you actually put me together at this time, but you must get through this difficulty first, otherwise Li Luo will have the impression that he is satirizing him, and it will be worth the loss.
Li Bao hurriedly said to Li Luo: "My lord, listen to Bao's explanation, there is a reason why this little monkey was able to make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace. Thinking that the Jade Emperor is the third honor, all the immortals in the heavenly court rely on the snort of the Jade Emperor, naturally some small people secretly calculate the Jade Emperor, and the immortals in the heavenly court were all unable to work at first. But the Jade Emperor is blessed with the heavens and has the protection of the gods and Buddhas, how can there be damage, this is only one of the tribulations suffered by the Jade Emperor, and when the monkey is in the future, he will realize the divine power of the Jade Emperor like the sea, and slowly surrender to the divine power of the Jade Emperor. Moreover, all the immortals in the heavenly court were also afraid of the Jade Emperor's punishment, so they all showed their magic in front of the monkey, and tortured the monkey like a monkey, and had to ask the Jade Emperor for forgiveness and help. ”
When Li Yi heard this, his face turned from gloomy to sunny, and he laughed and said, "Oh, I see. What about the rest of the book, is that what you have in your hand? ”
Li Bao saw that Li Luo's face had improved, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and exclaimed: It's so dangerous! He hurriedly offered the book in his hand and replied, "This story is very long, and I can't write it very quickly, so I can only write one paragraph and send it to the adults for them to read." ”
Li Yi opened the book and saw that Li Bao's regular script was very neat, so he praised it: "A few days ago, Li Keji also praised me for your calligraphy and floral art. In my view, your words do have the charm of 'Yan Liu'. ”
Li Bao hurriedly thanked his father for his praise, modestly said that he was still far behind, and took the opportunity to praise Li Luo's calligraphy. Li Yi listened to Li Bao's sycophants very useful, the father and son praised each other, and for a while, Li Luo actually felt like a bosom friend.
Seeing the frequent interaction between Li Yi and Li Bao, Guo Shufei was very unhappy and hated her silver teeth. opened his mouth and asked: "Liulang has been silent in the Daming Palace for the past few years, and now he has suddenly become eloquent, and there are so many ingenious ideas, and today he has presented such strange books as "Journey to the West". Do you have any adventures that you can't do? ”
