Chapter Forty-Eight: The Shi Family's Shop
In the palace, King Goujian of Yue proudly explained to the doctor that Ye Mo had given him the items, and the explanation was not only proud, but also very excited.
And Ye Mo was explaining various items to the merchants with a smirk on his face in the "Shi Family Shop", and the explanation was painful, and he was a little angry as he spoke, after all, the injury was not healed, but in the face of the God of Wealth, he didn't dare to offend, and he had to laugh, but he didn't have to be polite to Shi He.
shouted Shi He, Shi He immediately squeezed out of breath from the crowd, waiting for Ye Mo to speak.
Ye Mo introduced Shi He to Shang Jia with a smile, and at the same time apologized that his physical injuries had not healed, and it was inconvenient to be tired, so he returned to the backyard to recuperate.
A few days ago, the "Shijia Shop" had been grandly opened.
Shijia shop has a special rule, all the objects in the shop, can only be seen, can not be bought, want to buy is not impossible, you need to book in advance, even if it is booked, I don't know when it will arrive, and you may not be able to afford it.
The special rules of this generation, such a price, if used in later generations, is that the Shi family's shops are on fire, and they are all over the city.
It's still the original shop, but it has changed a plaque, from the original Shengjia rice shop to a Shijia shop.
It is not the people who are on fire in the Shi family's shop, but the items inside.
People, I haven't seen it, but I've heard of it.
People who have seen it admit that they are indeed worthy of the first beauty in Zhuji County, especially the object called an umbrella that has never been seen before, when these two beauties are in their hands, it is really a beautiful scenery.
But what really fascinated them were the items they had never seen before when they entered the shop.
One wave was reluctant to leave, the other wave could not enter, and the latter wave was anxious to shout outside the shop, and the whole street was overcrowded, unable to enter or exit.
The same is true for three days.
On the fourth day, the county Sima came out of the study, looked up at the sky, the sun rose high, changed the body of the single clothes, did not feel cold, but felt warm and warm.
He called his entourage and asked casually, "How is today?" ”
The attendant replied clearly: "I have just returned, and I have never been less than before." ”
Nodding his head, he walked along, his entourage unhurried, following closely behind.
As soon as they arrived in the north of the city, the crowd was already a little congested, and the entourage hurriedly walked to the front, letting people disperse, and the pace of the county Sima was significantly accelerated.
When everyone saw him, most of them didn't know him, but it was enough for a small number of people to know him, so they all gave way.
When I arrived at the shop, I couldn't help but sigh to myself, the rice shop that had been handed down for decades had become another shop, which showed that the things in the world, the ups and downs, the evolution and change, nothing more than this.
Although there is some contact between the family and the Sheng family, it is only limited to taxes, nothing else, the Sheng family secretly relies on it, although it has not been explicitly stopped, but there is already a suspicion, and now the Sheng family is declining, probably their own family also has a little responsibility.
In front of the door, the left and right people are wearing pale cyan Luo skirts, one is a girl with a double bun at night, and the other is a white hosta with a ruby pendant, echoing with the ruddy lips, which is very beautiful and refined, gentle and beautiful.
Each person has a green oil umbrella in his hand, propped on the top of his head, which is a beautiful Danqing.
Needless to say, this is the famous Xi Shi and Zheng Dan girls in the county.
It's just that the umbrella in their hands is much more beautiful than the umbrella they gave to their home a few days ago.
This kid is a little bolder, let the draft girl, show up like this, blatantly build momentum, how can the county respect be embarrassed, but on the other hand, don't talk about the county respect, even my king didn't say anything, what is there to worry about?
Shi Yiguang and Zheng Dan have long discovered the county Sima, and it is not difficult to find such a character among many people, especially when everyone has made way for him to see, even fools are afraid that this is not an ordinary person.
The two of them accepted the umbrella, gave a deep salute, and Shi Yiguang said: "Waiting for my lord, Ye Gongzi has been waiting for a long time, just because there is a new product to try, it is inconvenient to welcome the adult, and I hope that the adult will forgive me, please follow the people to see my son-in-law." ”
After that, he saluted again and took the lead into the house.
The house has become empty, and there is a miniature waterwheel on the east side, which is slowly turning, turning to the water at a high place, falling like a makeshift water tank, and the water in the tank hits the water tank on the water wheel, causing the water wheel to rotate, so that the water is carried in a circular manner without manpower.
The county Sima saved: "What an ingenious method." ”
Next to the waterwheel is a small field with a curved plough and a model of a plough ox.
Next to the ploughing field, there are open umbrellas, hanging in strings, hanging high on the beams of the house, umbrellas of various sizes and colors, very beautiful, decorating the house, and having another style.
On the west side are all kinds of new tables and chairs, a few small ones, and what is particularly eye-catching is the various exquisite porcelain placed on them, and I can't help but ask: "This is ......"
Shi Yiguang replied: "This is a tea bowl, a teapot, Ye Gongzi said it was for tea." ”
Seeing that the county Sima was still puzzled, his face was regretful, and said: "In fact, the folk girl knows tea, but before she met the son, this is not called tea, and the father is used to chew, but the later son said that this way of eating is not right, it is soaked in boiling water and drunk, how to brew and drink, the folk girl does not know, the son asked the father to buy a lot of tea trees from the distant southern Yunnan, and you can taste new tea in the coming year. ”
The county Sima said with a smile: "The old man has also heard of it, and he has also heard that the mountain of tea trees is planted in Lai Luo Village, and he also eats some, but the saying of roasting tea and making tea is really unheard of." ”
It seems that the porcelain, blue bricks, and fine iron fired by Gu Lou's workshop have been successful, otherwise, where did these porcelain, as well as the iron next to it, come from?
These fine iron knives, saws, chisels, etc., of different sizes, are so sharp that people are stunned and dumbfounded.
If this is used on soldiers, then it will not be a big victory?
There is also a loom, Shi Ziyi, who came in from the back door of the shop, immediately sat down in front of the loom, and demonstrated to the county Sima how to operate the linen woven by the loom, coarse cloth, and actually weaved a small piece of silk, but at a glance, he knew that because the silk was too expensive and not often woven, it led to a red face and retreated because the technique was too rusty.
The county Sima laughed and praised repeatedly.
opened the back door of the shop and followed Shi Yiguang in.
This is a three-entry courtyard, there are ear rooms on the left and right sides, through the patio is the front yard, several rooms in the backyard are closed, one of the doors is open, and an elegant and handsome young man comes out with a spring breeze on his face.
Ye Mo gave a deep salute, and Lang Sheng said: "Ye Mo, who was born in the late Lai Luo Village, has seen Lord Sima of the county, the adult is busy with official business, and he deigned to the disadvantage, and he has never greeted him from afar, and he also asks the adult to forgive him." ”
The county Sima smiled slightly, and carefully looked at this immortal disciple who was famous in Zhuji and alarmed the king.
Ye Mo was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Master Sima, ......?"
The county Sima laughed again, looked at Ye Mo's hands, and asked puzzledly: "I heard that Xiaolangjun has tea that can be soaked in boiling water, which can be drunk?" Why are these hands so wrapped? ”
Ye Mo's forearms stood up, looked at the thick, red-swollen hands wrapped in gauze, and said with a wry smile: "In the early years, the late students followed the teacher to southern Yunnan, and saw that he drank tea every day, and the teacher loved it very much, and the later students gradually liked this drink, and they were more interested in its growth, picking, and making, so they followed the practice of one or two, but the time is limited, and the most important thing is to fry the tea.
No, just came a batch of tea from southern Yunnan, recalling the method of roasting tea, tried many times, but could not succeed, and injured my hand, but fortunately, God had mercy on me, and learned that Lord Sima came, and finally let the late life fry the tea successfully, not in vain the late life worked hard for days, the pain of the hand injury, the adult first please. ”
The original living room of Sheng Zhi in this house has now been converted into a study by Ye Mo.
Golden silk nanmu, is the royal wood, it seems that it was not used until the Song Dynasty, now it is not found, Ye Mo wants to use, but this kind of wood is too expensive to transport, and the paint has not been studied, so I have to use the more common ash wood, and the lacquer is relatively easy.
Therefore, all the furniture in Ye Mo's current house is made of ash.
New chairs, coffee tables, desks, and styles are absolutely not available in this era, but the carving is backward, otherwise, it will surprise the No. 2 person in Zhuji County.
The stove is new, and the iron kettle for boiling water is, of course, also new, and the coal and stone in the stove are burning vigorously, and the kettle above is already emitting white gas.
Stretching out his hands, Shi Ziyi went to wrap the gauze with scissors in his hand, revealing that Ye Mo was not only red and swollen, but also had a few broken palms, Sima looked at the scissors so sharp, and secretly marveled in his heart.
Picking up the small clip, he took out a few dark green spherical objects from a porcelain jar and put them into the delicate Gu, and at this time, the water in the kettle made a whistling sound.
Ye Mo said with a smile: "This is boiling water, pour it into a porcelain bowl, wash the tea once, and drink it twice." ”
As he spoke, his movements were skillful and elegant, pouring the turquoise soup inside the Gu into a delicate small bowl, repeating the same action and putting it into another small bowl.
Ye Mo smiled and said, "My lord, please taste it." ”
The county Sima smiled but said nothing.
Ye Mo understood, stretched out his right hand to pick up the small bowl, held it with his left hand, brought it to the end of his nose, sniffed slightly, sipped it gently, and said with a smile: "It's not bad, it will be better next time." ”
The county Sima walked in turn, feeling the bitter taste, and after entering the throat, a dark fragrance turned around, and he couldn't help but be surprised, nodded frequently, and said: "This kind of drinking method is the first time, the entrance is slightly bitter, but the aftertaste is mellow and fragrant, and there is another flavor, which is not bad, not bad." ”
Ye Mo said with a smile: "I heard that the family teacher often said that this is tea culture, and it is difficult to get a glimpse of it in the later years, and it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance, and it will definitely become an elegant trend when it is popularized in the future." ”
"Okay, the immortal characters of the Lingshi are far from being compared to ordinary people such as me, such an elegant thing must be spread by my king, so that it can become everyone." After that, he looked at Ye Mo with a smile.
Ye Mo looked at Shi Yiguang, nodded slightly, and then turned to the county Sima.
Shi Yiguang, Zheng Dan and Shi Ziyi understood, and quietly retreated.
