Chapter 321: Just in time for the scent of orchid grass
The reason why the details of this year's great court meeting are cumbersome and headaches is mainly because of the whim of the emperor who changed the name of the year at the beginning, and the order of the left and right respects and humility was adjusted, and the right phase was respected, followed by the left phase, and the position of the main officials in the court and the central government also came to a big change, and many people couldn't adapt to it for a while, for example, the right Xiaowei is now greater than the left Xiaowei, but the left Xiaowei general was in charge of power in the past, and it is impossible to move the authority of others, and only the left and right on the top of the head can be moved. There is only one thing that can be clear, and the left move must be a demotion to an official.
After the matter of the ranking was clarified, everyone stood up and said goodbye to Li Linfu: "Disturb Li Xianggong, I will retire." ”
When they slowly walked out of the porch of the inner hall, Li Linfu's voice suddenly came: "Please stay for the time being, there is something to talk to you about." ”
Fu Meng Lingcha immediately stopped his steps, crossed his hands towards Tian Renwan in front of him, bowed slightly and turned around slowly, and walked back lightly. And Tanaka Cheng's body did not move, but turned his head, and the light of contempt shot out of his eyes, and those who were stared at by this light would be somewhat frightened in their hearts.
They were led out of the labyrinth of the Prime Minister's Mansion by the steward of the Mansion, and walked outside the door on the right side of the Prime Minister's Mansion, where there was still a group of people holding prayer stickers lining up on the left side.
At this time, a cold wind blew, blowing the sweat of several people. It was really a crime to visit the right minister's mansion once, and people wore half arms at home on a cold day, making them feel like they were stuffed in a steamer, and their middle clothes were soaked with sweat.
It is said that people are prone to nervousness and mistakes in hot or uncomfortable environments. Li Linfu deliberately made the room so hot, did he have such a mind? The dignified prime minister of the Tang Dynasty has come up with these small means of governing people, which is really scheming.
Back at the gate of the backyard, Tian Renwan's mood regained calm, and said to Li Siye and the others: "There are still a few days before the March 3rd Shangsi Festival Festival, so it's hard to go back to Chang'an, and you don't have to be as nervous as Anxi usually." Take advantage of the loose and loose in the past few days to do your own private affairs, as long as you don't miss the court meeting. ”
The three of them listened and praised Tian Renwan again and again. This Tanaka Cheng is generous, but generous people are often easy to be exploited.
Li Siye happened to have something to do, and so did Ma Fu and Gao Xianzhi, who said goodbye to each other at the gate of the backyard and went in different directions.
He decided to go to the West Market first, to see how Michagan and Shali were doing with the caravans of the Green Ridge and the Hidden Country? He is their owner, and he is not familiar with doing business, but he has mastered a lot of empty theories, and when the theory meets the reality of Datang, he can distinguish what can collide.
It stands to reason that the two should not lose money, and the business on the Silk Road is still in an extensive state, and to be honest, because of the low transportation capacity, the supply is far from keeping up with the demand. People who go to the Western Regions to do business don't need to hollow out so much thought, as long as you can not lose goods and damage goods along the way, don't die camels, don't be robbed by sand bandits, as long as you can safely transport to your destination, you will definitely make a lot of money.
The reverse is also true, if you can safely transport the products of the Western Regions to Chang'an, you can make money with your eyes closed. Chang'an's Persian carpets in the west market, Tubo and Tibet are very scarce fabrics, they have these two things to guarantee, where can the business be worse?
He was giving himself psychological comfort, thinking about it and looking up, he was already in front of the Xishi archway.
Li Siye walked around the flow of people, just to observe the activity of the market, but the city is always so noisy, even if the main market has not yet opened in the afternoon, the flow of people is already very full.
Because the March 3rd Shangsi Festival is approaching, the business of restaurants and wine stores is quite hot, and the people have the habit of preparing in advance, almost every family has to buy two jars to store, and also buy a few catties of cooked mutton and some bracken, when the family gathers, friends need to be prepared for banquets.
There is a commodity that is popular because of the festival, it is bluegrass, just because the Central Plains Shangsi Festival has the custom of bathing in orchid soup, the bluegrass has a spirit, the aroma strikes people, and it can ward off evil spirits and remove filth. Even the poorest families have to go to the suburbs on this day, pick a handful of bluegrass and go to the Weishui to hold a ceremony of "pulling out the side bath". In the vernacular, it is to go out to take a group bath, and it is estimated that it will take one bath once a year.
The bathing of wealthy families is much more advanced than this, there are baths in the condition, there are wooden barrels in the unconditional, and the perfume shop is also very popular on this day. They also have higher requirements for orchids, they must have spring orchids and orchids, which gave birth to the business of orchids.
He walked slowly from the liquor shop on the left, and the orchid liquor shop in front of him hung out six or seven white lines, which smelled of opening auspiciousness or wedding. One of the flags reads Li Taibai's poems at the wine shop, and the other six or seven long flags all have the contents of the poems.
Li Siye said to himself in surprise and asked, "Li Taibai has come to Chang'an?" ”
Li Bai is the score savior of his nine-year education, the national poetry idol, the king pesticide assassin, and the strength of the poet immortal throughout 1,500 years.
He turned around and walked towards the store, and Dr. Wine, who was standing at the door to serve the customer, put the sackcloth on his back, bowed and crossed his hands and smiled: "The guest is coming to drink?" ”
Li Siye asked him: "You are often frequented by Li Taibai, a wine shop?" ”
"Patronizing?" Dr. Jiu was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, Li Taibai has often come to our orchid restaurant these days. ”
The wine doctor was obviously lying, and Li Siye turned around and walked out the door again. Anyway, the time in Chang'an is still long, and it is enough to recognize people when I have some free time, see what the real Li Bai looks like, and relieve my curiosity. If you have a little more time, you can get acquainted with him and ask him for a few poems as ink treasures.
He came to Nanqu in the West Market, where the Mi Ji shop was opened, and in front of the two-story hard hilltop of the storefront, there were patches of mud orchid grass on the ground.
Li Siye frowned, what are you doing? If a good store is not opened, how can you learn from others to sell bluegrass?
He strode into the shop, where there were no hired men, and it seemed empty, except for the wooden counters and wooden signs and ledgers hanging on the walls, and the sand was grabbing the linen cloth and wiping it on the countertop.
He put his hands behind his back and asked, "Where is Micha Gan, Sand Grain?" ”
"Oh, he took the bluegrass to ......" Sha Li replied normally, suddenly reacted, put down the sackcloth and turned around and laughed: "President, no, the owner is back!" ”
The kid stood in front of him and swayed from side to side, probably trying to get the owner to praise him. Looking at Sha Li's excited look, Li Siye couldn't accuse him of selling bluegrass at the door, so he had to wait for Michagan to come back.
At this moment, there was a distinctive creak of axles outside the door, and Siye turned to look out, and saw Michagan dressed in brown clothes, pushing a wheelbarrow with both hands, and dozens of pots of bluegrass were placed on the cart.
It didn't look like the shopkeeper at all, Li Siye stepped forward to help him bring the mud and orchid grass to the ground, and then beckoned to him and said, "You come to the store with me." ”
Li Siye sat cross-legged on the ground, pressed his knees and asked him, "How did you start the bluegrass?" Can this business make money? ”
"Yes!" This is the affirmative answer: "This is Huilan, but whenever the Shangsi Festival is approaching, the poor people of Chang'an will go to the outskirts of Chang'an to look for and dig Huilan grass, get the complete adobe and buy it in the hands of our shops, and then we will resell it to the dignitaries and wealthy families in the city to make a difference." ”
Li Siye frowned and asked sternly: "What about your original business, don't you do your own business?" ”
Michagan was a little stunned, and opened his mouth wide and said, "It's done!" ”
"It's done...... What's going on? ”
