Chapter 50: The Ashes Inn opens
Wei Li came in head-on, waved his hand at Li Qingqing, and reported the trend, "Shuofeng has secretly gone to the coastal county. But the subordinates are unknown, did His Highness let him go to secretly compete for the vacant position of county magistrate in the coastal county? β
Can you ever compete for the crown princess?
Li Qingqing raised his mouth and smiled, especially when he saw Mr. Wei Li's tense face, his smile became even bigger, "The county magistrate must be from a coastal county, and Shuofeng is not, how to compete?" When I asked him to go, I had something else to do. This can be regarded as a test for him.
If it's not even a good thing, there's no need to stay here. β
Mr. Wei Li didn't know what Li Qingqing wanted him to do, but Li Qingqing's face was unfathomable, and he obviously didn't plan to tell him, so Mr. Wei Li didn't ask.
At this time, Mama Zhang came in from outside, "Your Highness, the plank merchant you are looking for has been found by your subordinates." But I'm afraid that people can't meet your requirements, so they have not dared to take your order. β
Mr. Wei Li and Gongsun Fu were stunned for a moment, not knowing what Li Qingqing was doing, but the next moment they all thought of it.
Mr. Wei Li asked, "Does Your Highness want to renovate the inn?" β
Li Qingqing nodded.
Gongsun Fu stood up and said, "If Your Highness lacks a painter, I can try." β
Li Qingqing asked him, "Can you paint with paint?" β
The best plank dealer Li Qingqing found couldn't guarantee that the most realistic fire scene would be painted with paint, so people didn't dare to take the business.
Later, the task of painting was handed over to Gongsun Fu, who alone and patiently painted with lacquer and color.
Mama Zhang and Mr. Wei Li were curious, and couldn't help but come to the inn to feast their eyes first.
Some floors have been laid on the ground of the inn, and the pattern of Martian is painted on the floor, and the pattern is waxed, which not only protects the pattern, but also improves the brightness of the color, coupled with the craftsmanship of Gongsun Fu, only a small part of it is lifelike, as if it is really at the scene of the fire.
Mama Zhang and Mr. Wei Li were not only amazed by Gongsun Fu's craftsmanship, but also by Li Qingqing's ideas.
Li Qingqing was very satisfied, "Next, just wait for Liuli." β
"What is Your Highness going to do with glass?" Mama Zhang, who understood the use of the floor, was even more curious about the use of glass at this time.
Li Qingqing sent Mama Zhang with the word "secret".
This made Mama Zhang even more scratchy.
After waiting for several days, watching the glass embedded in the ground, and then inlaid on the top of the upstairs that was burned by fire, watching the two pieces of glass echo up and down, and looking at the zither placed on the glass on the ground, I barely knew that their Royal Highness wanted to use the moonlight as the light, so that people could play and sing in the moonlight.
It's such a novel idea, and just listening to the idea makes you want to come in and take a look.
But what about Li Qingqing's thoughts, and what else!
People decorate the floor with wooden planks to facilitate painting, and in this dynasty, wooden plank paving was only available in the houses of rich and noble families, inns, and restaurants generally did not have it.
Because of painting on the ground, the ground is too rough, and the paint will be absorbed by the ground if it is dyed into the ground, and there is no sense of saturation. Therefore, Li Qingqing boldly used wooden boards to pave the floor, painted on the wooden boards, and then locked the pigments with spicy, so that the color of the painting could be maintained permanently.
As for the glass, it is also specially made. The center of the glass is a painting, the glass painting at the bottom is a picture of a rich peony, and the picture of the Big Dipper on the roof is a picture of the Big Dipper.
In this way, the moonlight shines down, the Big Dipper shines brightly, and people dance on the peony, like the peony fairy who descends on the world at night, Rao is full of fun.
After Li Qingqing finished speaking, everyone was stunned, and they couldn't wait to open as soon as possible.
But Li Qingqing said that she was not in a hurry, and asked people to spread the news first, she said, "This is called a gimmick!" When the gimmick is enough, people's stomachs are hung to the full, and we can open. β
After saying this, Mama Zhang, Wei Li and the others were already stunned, and they all gave a thumbs up.
In the next few days, everyone knew about the various funs of the Ash Eating Inn, even the empress, the empress, and the three princesses.
The empress saw through this daughter's intentions, "After she took real power, she wanted to take business power." β
Liu Qingfang, the prime minister of the royal family, vaguely felt that this fifth princess was not a fuel-efficient lamp, she wanted to use business power to deal with the regime and want to monopolize power. It's just that the empress already knows about it, and her ambition is exposed, so I'm afraid it won't end well.
β¦β¦
The princess didn't guess it, because of the previous Qinglou incident, she only thought that Li Qingqing was planning to go against her, and wanted to indirectly rob the Qinglou business and cut off her financial route.
The princess thinks she is too naΓ―ve, there is only an inn, there is no top cook, forgive her and she can't do a big business, even if she has a chef and no beauty, she can't fight her, this kind of person is not to be afraid.
β¦β¦
The three princesses were only angry, and the huge inn was just given away, and there was not even a sound! Knowing this, the fire should have been set off from the door and burned the entire inn directly, see what she does!
However, someone whispered, "If the fire had been set from the gate, the people in the Qinglou opposite would have found out soon." β
β¦β¦
Li Qingqing's inn has been preliminarily repaired, and the entire inn has a strong fire wind, even the decorative ropes, chopsticks, and wine jugs hanging on the wall have been burned by fire.
However, the tables, chairs and benches are all topped, not only new, but also sturdy.
This is also in response to Mama Zhang's speculation at that time, their Royal Highness wants not only the real feeling of the fire scene, but also to find something out of the real in the real, these are.
Li Qingqing did this because the fire scene was too real and dirty, and sometimes, he deliberately drew pictures with ash patterns on tables, chairs and benches, so that it would be too realistic and uncomfortable, after all, fire is not a good thing.
So, it was necessary to break the real scene of the fire with something and let them know that it was a fake scene.
Li Qingqing reached out and touched these tables, chairs and benches, and a smile of determination appeared on his face.
At this time, Gongsun Fu had already painted all the paintings, and when he saw Li Qingqing smiling at the table and chairs, he couldn't help but come over and take a look.
"Your Highness, what are you looking at, so fascinating?"
Li Qingqing turned his head and saw that Gongsun Fu's clothes were full of paint stains, and wanted to laugh, but he couldn't help it.
"I'm looking into the future."
Gongsun Fu is clear.
At this time, there was a lively sound outside, and the muttering pedestrians suddenly scattered in two rows and stood on the side of the street.
Li Qingqing and Gongsun Fu looked up.
There was a long queue on the street, and the first ones were the Praetorian Guards of the Great Qi Kingdom, and behind the Praetorian Guards were two large sedan chairs.
Behind the sedan chair is a row of soldiers, but judging from the color and texture of the armor they wear, it is not the Great Qi Kingdom, it should be the Beixing Kingdom.
Behind these soldiers is also a sedan chair, Li Qingqing guessed that it should be the palanquin of the prince of Beixingguo.
These teams walked through in a mighty way, and when the sedan chair of Beixingguo passed by the inn, the curtains suddenly opened, and the people inside looked at the inn curiously.
But the next moment, when his eyes fell, he happened to meet Li Qingqing's four eyes, and both of them were stunned, and then the prince quickly lowered the curtains, while Li Qingqing turned his face away, his face was very ugly at this time, and there was hidden anger.
