Chapter 68 The Soft Rice King Who Sells Tea
Fang Yuxiu raised her head from her mother's arms in fright, looked at Li Han and subconsciously muttered: "You have become a concubine, and you will also be a princess in charge of the inner house in the future, what is the use of me learning?" ”
Fang Yue had already heard Li Han's reprimand just now that he had not changed his mind at all, but he also knew that the royal family would not change after making a decision, Li Han could only resist by asking for hardship, so he said gloomily: "Han'er, Dad knows that you are a conscientious child, but the emperor's order is difficult to disobey, since you have been selected to be a concubine, Yuxiu will be your sister, and your father and mother don't blame you." ”
Li Han still said angrily: "I said why did Yuxiu run away, it turned out that she was worried about this?" Daddy, do you know why I promised to be a colt? That's because the emperor made a special case for me, saying that as long as I promise to marry the princess, I can marry two wives at the same time, Yuxiu was set first, of course, she is the housekeeper's wife, and now the family's business is getting bigger and bigger, she is so willful and runs, how good is it if she doesn't study hard! ”
Fang Yue's beard shook excitedly: "What? The emperor allows you to marry two wives? ”
"Yes, otherwise I would definitely rather die, I will never give up Yuxiu."
Fang Yuxiu's little face was full of crystal tears, but she had already started to laugh because of these words, she finally understood how ridiculous her worries were, and instantly remembered Li Han's anger, so she shrank in her heart and said in a snort: "...... I didn't run away on purpose, I was afraid that you would be embarrassed......"
"Hmph, you have something to discuss with me, and you should ask me if you have something on your mind, how can there be a reason to run home quietly, you see that you have made me unable to do serious things and come back to chase you, so that my father and mother are also sad for you, do you have a sense of accomplishment?" Li Han deliberately got angry to interpret his righteousness.
Fang Yue smiled with relief: "Xiu'er, this time it is indeed you who are not, discuss more with Li Han in the future, you will be a person who is the head mother of a big family in the future, and you will run away when you encounter difficulties, but it is not like my daughter." ”
In this way, a turmoil disappeared invisibly, and since he came back, Li Han and his father-in-law collected the accounts for this period of time, determined the next investment direction, and after dinner, he took Yuxiu and returned to Chang'an City together.
When I got home, I saw Liu Che sitting on Li Han's swing frame, and a handsome girl-like boy pushed him to shake, and saw Li Han jumping down with a smile and shouting: "Hello brother-in-law, my little brother heard about the happy event and came to congratulate him, who knows cousin...... Uh, no, my brother-in-law is not at home, so I haven't had lunch yet, do you want to cook a few delicious dishes to compensate me? ”
Li Han also likes this brother-in-law very much, Liu Che at this moment is not as moody as an adult, although he shows a domineering and resolute attitude from time to time that is different from that of teenagers of the same age, but on the whole, he is still a lively and lovely good boy.
"Okay, what do you want to eat? Who is this Xiao Langjun? ”
"He is my classmate Han Yan, who came with me after school."
Li Han suddenly remembered who this beautiful child was, it turned out that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty recorded in the wild history had a good male partner, who was the grandson of Gong Gao Hou Han Rongdang, and the beautiful man named Han Yanzi Wang Sun is really a person!
"Welcome, come with me, I'll make you delicious noodles." Li Han smiled and led the two to the kitchen, made knife-cut noodles, and accompanied them to eat in full swing, Han Yan immediately liked the Li family, and immediately expressed her hope that she could come often in the future.
After sending the two young masters to eat and drink to their heart's content, Li Han wanted to go to the big pharmacy to deliver the Chinese medicinal materials brought back from Bashang, and Liu Che and Han Yan also followed.
As soon as he arrived at the shop, he saw a man of about thirty years old, tall and tall, with a handsome face, and an extraordinary appearance, dressed as a scribe, with a servant, driving a carriage and stopping at the door, and the carriage was full of burlap bags.
The man shouted: "The shopkeeper is not here, I came from Shuzhong, and brought the best herbs from Wuyang, which is a good medicine for curing all kinds of poisons, quenching thirst and quenching heat. ”
"Grass?" Li Han was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that his father had done research on tea culture, tea culture originated very early in the Han nationality, and in the "Shennong's Materia Medica", it was called "Tucao", which was mainly used for medicine at that time. In the later period of the primitive commune, tea became an item of exchange for goods. King Wu fell, and tea has been used as a tribute. In the Warring States period, tea has a certain scale. There is a record of tea in the collection of the Book of Songs of the pre-Qin period. In the early days of the Western Han Dynasty, only the people of Shu had the habit of drinking tea.
He walked to the front of the carriage in surprise, asked the man to open the burlap bag, grabbed a handful and put it on the tip of his nose to smell, sure enough, it was tea leaves, but it was not fried, but picked and dried, so the leaves were very large, green and yellow, and the green tea he drank was simply incomparable.
However, this is the Han Dynasty, it's good to have tea, what are you picky about? What's more, as long as you know where this thing comes from, you can buy young leaves and fry them yourself in the future, this person claims that tea is produced in Wuyang, Shuzhong, that is, the main production area of tea at this time, Jiannan, it seems that this matter is reliable!
Li Hanxi smiled and said, "Mr. Gao's surname? I can come to Kyoto from Shuzhong, the road is not close, I want all this thing, please come in and discuss it in detail. ”
Entering the house and sitting down, the businessman said with a sad face: "My surname is Sima, my name is Sima Xiangru, the word Changqing, not a businessman, but a professor of government in Shuzhong......"
"Huh? cough cough cough cough ......"
Li Han just took a sip of warm boiled water in his mouth, choked on the man's half-cut words, and coughed frantically for a while before it subsided.
The guest didn't speak when he saw that he was uncomfortable, and only when he eased up did he ask, "Xiao Langjun, do you feel better?" ”
Sima is similar!
is the one who is first-class in learning but has a slippery character, and the song is written exquisitely, when he is down, he teamed up with his classmate Wang Ji to play tricks, pretended to be a master, and successfully abducted Zhuo Wenjun, the daughter of a wealthy businessman, with a song of Phoenix Qiuhuang, in order to force his father-in-law to come up with money to support, coax Zhuo Wenjun to be a second-rate son who sells wine!
However, this time has not yet reached the time when this person meets Zhuo Wenjun, this person should have come to Chang'an to look for opportunities, the first to find his Bole was Liu Wu, the king of Liang, who was conquered by him with a "Zi Xuan Fu", and he would bring him back to the Liang State to be reused, and when the king of Liang died, he was downcast before he went to deceive Zhuo Wenjun ** him.
Although Sima Xiangru is admired in the history books as a great writer, this person is a second-rate person who eats soft rice in Li Han's mind, so he owes no respect to the person in front of him, and after coughing for a while, his demeanor is light.
What if you're a cow? Master, a person who has never been seen in history, can become a horse master, can you still admire and worship you as a person who eats soft rice? You rely on your parents to give you a dog-like look, with a bottle of knowledge in your stomach, a woman who deceived others so well is not to cherish it, and after being favored and promoted by Emperor Wu, it is really not a good thing, the master will treat you as an ordinary businessman at this moment.
Straightening his attitude, Li Han said reservedly: "Oh, I accidentally choked just now, since Mr. is a professor, why do you sell this herb again?" ”
"Alas...... It's hard to ...... words" Sima Xiangru said with a sad face: "Since Shuzhong County Shouwen Weng died of illness, I don't want to live in a county, so I set off to Chang'an to study.
Who knows that the road to Beijing is bumpy, the cost is exhausted, it is still difficult to make ends meet these days, and I have no long things to sell these things, but unfortunately no one has bought the medical hall in Chang'an.
A kind old man pointed me out, saying that the hairpin lord opened this big pharmacy, and he likes to buy KitKat things the most, let me try it, I met you when I came over, and I don't know if you have done the lord's master? ”
Liu Che and Han Yan had been listening to each other just now, and then Han Yan laughed "quack": "You are so blind, the one in front of you is the hairpin, and you still ask him if he can do it, hahaha!" ”
Sima Xiangru's face changed, he quickly stood up and saluted again, and said again and again: "Please forgive the scholar for the sin of ignorance, and the scholar Sima Xiangru will give the lord a salute." ”
Li Han had contempt for this person in his heart, and he regarded the etiquette of people as soft bones, so he frowned and waved his hand and said: "That's it, we are talking about business, we are talking about business now, we don't need to talk about those courtesies." ”
After sitting down again, Sima Xiangru spoke more respectfully, Li Han listened impatiently, and said bluntly: "I'm really interested in the cart of grass you brought, you can buy it all, I don't know what price you want?" ”
Someone bought something, Sima Xiangru was not excited, and still said with a look of bad luck: "Alas, I originally wanted to bring Shuzhong grass soup to Chang'an, so that the scholars can enjoy this wonderful taste, but who knows that the bag is shy and has to sell, and the price is up to the hairpin lord to give." ”
Li Han felt a little pity for this person, and took the initiative to raise a high price and said: "In this case, how about a pack of 1,000 yuan?" ”
Sima Xiangru still looked sad, and didn't feel that this price was worth gratifying, so he nodded lightly and said, "Then Lord Xie Lu Xie Hairpin is good." ”
This reaction made Li Han feel that he was still a cow, no matter how he positioned himself as a villain and decency, if he was not shocked by people's honor and disgrace, he would be a leader, and he would not be convinced.
Liu Che also had a strong interest in this person, and said: "What you have been saying about the herb soup is an excellent delicacy, why don't you make it up and let me try it, if it's really good, maybe we can help you find a place to live in Chang'an." ”
Li Han looked at Liu Che vigilantly, thinking to himself, maybe history was changed again because of his own reasons, this is the second Bole Liu Che who wants Sima Xiangru to encounter in advance in life, could it be that he will start his career from today?
As soon as he heard that someone was appreciating the "grass soup drink", Sima Xiangru finally became excited, and called the servants to move his outfit down, and he was about to demonstrate the oldest tea ceremony on the spot.
(Note: During the Western Han Dynasty, the official teachers were called "professors", which can be traced historically, and it is not the author's application of the title of later generations.) )
