……
The process of receiving the decree was not as troublesome as Li Anran expected, but standing in the empty front hall, listening to the inner servant who announced the decree with the courtesy of a Taoist chief (not called a eunuch at this time), he whispered an ancient text. Li Anran could only barely guess what he said, and most of them couldn't understand at all.
After announcing the decree, although Li Anran did not take these servants to heart, in order to avoid some unnecessary troubles, he still asked people to present the special gifts of Xiaoyao Villa, a set of exquisite porcelain tea sets, a pack of two or two good Biluochun and five gold cakes of one tael each. As for those guards, none of them were left behind, each person had two taels of golden cakes and a pack of Anxi Tieguanyin, which was also in the two taels.
If you want to say that this gift is not heavy, except for the set of fine porcelain tea sets and tea leaves, it is actually not heavy. But what is Li Anran's identity, he is a fairy who was personally ordered and rewarded by His Majesty the Tang Emperor. As a close confidant of Li Shimin's side, among the people who came this time, it didn't matter if it was the internal servant or the guard who announced the decree, who dared to be presumptuous, wouldn't it be looking for death. What's more, there are tea sets and tea leaves, which are enough to make this time satisfying, and even a little flattered.
Don't talk so much about the will this time, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is just for the reward of a series of techniques such as waterwheels, brick kilns, mills, curved plows, and filters provided by Li Anran before. I don't know if Lu Dao has figured out someone's habits, there is no gold, silver or jewelry in this reward, except for a batch of jade with a large amount. There is also a collection of antiques from the previous dynasty.
Li Anran was not surprised by Li Shimin's arrangement. Whoever makes himself say fly in front of him will fly to the sky. This kind of ability is not something that charlatans and religions can do. But what people can't imagine is that this has already flown into the sky. The other party didn't even mention the matter of canonizing a real person or other titles in this holy decree. However, it is not a bad thing to have benefits to be gained.
After sending away the inner servants and guards who announced the decree, Li Anran played with the holy decree in his hand for a while, and originally thought about whether to get this thing to be sold as an antique in modern time and space. But when I think about it, this holy decree in my hand has just been baked, and it will definitely be regarded as a fake if it is brought to modern time and space without the precipitation of time.
Thinking of this, Li Anran easily stuffed the holy decree into the hand of Su Xiaomei, who was flashing her eyes and blushing with excitement beside her.
"Think so. Let's take it and take a closer look. Li Anran said with a smile.
"Young master, how can this be done, this is a holy decree, it is said that it is to be put on the offering table and offered well." Su Xiaomei, who carefully held the holy decree in her hand, said with some trepidation.
"What's so troublesome, just find a place to put it away." Li Anran, who waved his hand, said disapprovingly.
"But ......"
Su Xiaomei, who also wanted to persuade someone not to be so disrespectful to the holy decree, felt her sleeve pulled a few times before she finished speaking, and turned her head to look, but saw her good sister Xiangyun shaking her head at herself. Although for a moment I didn't figure out what the other party meant. But the words that had already come to his lips did not continue.
After handing over the holy decree to Su Xiaomei for collection, Li Anran took Zhao Er and walked around the villa in a carriage.
With the help of modern tools, plus the few craftsmen who were trained to be foremen, they were indeed very capable and had sufficient manpower. The expansion and renovation of the lodge is proceeding very well.
The completion of the first batch of farmhouse houses once again stimulated those farmers and subordinates who had not yet been allocated a house. Even if everyone will be assigned a set of houses, they can follow Li Anran's requirements. The first batch of houses in the best locations were only awarded to those who had made a great contribution to their work.
Seeing that the first batch of houses could not be obtained. In order to get the second batch of relatively poor locations, all the people in the entire Xiaoyao Villa are working hard to complete their work. No way. The new house is not only directly equipped with a full set of furniture, but also the daily necessities are also very complete.
The first farmers, craftsmen and people to move into their new homes were visited during this time. While enjoying the words of envy and praise, they also secretly decided to work hard, otherwise, they would not poke others in the back.
The concentration of private houses has connected the original farmland. Except for the corn and millet that had already been planted, the newly opened fields were not idle. Rice, wheat, corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, soybeans, mung beans, red beans and other staple grains and miscellaneous grains have been planted, and even those fields that should have been fallow have been planted with pastures such as alfalfa.
As Li Anran expected, these seeds brought from modern time and space soon showed a unique growth state after being affected by time and space travel. Not only does it grow fast, but it is also thick and thick. Even if there is still some time before the harvest, the patches of thick rice seedlings, wheat seedlings, corn stalks, etc., have already explained the problem.
There are also those melons, fruits and vegetables, some of which have a relatively short growth cycle, have begun to bear green fruits, and many of them have even reached the stage where they can be picked. In the past few days, some of the meals Li Anran has eaten are made with ingredients from the ground.
To say that the seeds of these melons, fruits and vegetables were originally the best goods carefully selected by Li Anran. According to the seed company, although the yield of these varieties is not as good as that of high-yielding varieties, they have obvious advantages in terms of taste and nutrition.
But after eating these vegetables grown after time and space travel, Li Anran was surprised to find that the taste of these dishes was much better than the so-called special dishes he had eaten in modern time and space.
If it weren't for the fact that the grapes in the modern space-time winery are currently in the ripening period and cannot be moved at all, Li Anran is likely to replace the grape varieties in the winery's vineyard with the grape varieties that came out of the Tang Dynasty space-time. Fortunately, although it is not possible to move at the moment, it is not too late to wait until the harvest is over to replace it.
The varieties planted in the vineyard are specially used to make wine, and when the time comes, a batch of excellent grape seeds is obtained, and then it is carried back and forth several times. Judging from the changes in the vegetables I tasted before, the quality of the wine produced in my own winery will definitely be improved by a few grades next year. At that time, as long as it is operated well, the annual profit of the winery will definitely be much higher than before.
Even if Li Anran wants to make money in modern time and space, it is not difficult to have an above-board and stable enough income channel than to dump those sensitive items that are easy to cause trouble.
After Li Anran walked around several important areas in the villa, he should be happy to see the prosperous and energetic atmosphere in his village. But thinking of Su Xiaomei's reaction to that holy decree just now, she couldn't be happy in her heart.
"Erlang, I want to ask you something." Li Anran, who was standing on a high place, looked at the scenery in the villa and said suddenly.
"Young master, you say." Zhao Er, who was holding the long hilt of the knife with his hand, replied.
"What would you do if I gave you that decree for safekeeping?" Li Anran, whose eyes fell on a busy construction site, said casually.
"This ......" Zhao Er, who didn't expect his master to ask this question, didn't know how to answer for a while.
"It's okay, just say it casually, you can just say it boldly, and I won't blame you if it's wrong." Li Anran, who waved his hand, said with a smile.
"Oh, listen to Mrs. Su's words, this holy decree should be put on the offering table, otherwise it will be disrespectful. I think we should have to provide it. Zhao Er, who didn't think of the potential meaning of this question, hesitated for a while, and then said with some uncertainty.
"That's right, the holy decree is the holy decree after all, and it should be offered or it must be offered." Li Anran, who heard this answer, although there was nothing abnormal on his face, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and then he continued: "Erlang, after you go back, you ask Steward Wang to prepare a room dedicated to worshipping the holy decree, and when there is a holy decree in the future, it will be placed there." ”
"Understood, young master." Zhao Er, who was originally worried that he had said the wrong thing, secretly breathed a sigh of relief and promised at the same time. (To be continued......)
