Chapter 628 Snow Appreciation
In the cold winter season, eating hot pot and sweating all over the body is a pleasant thing.
Everyone had almost eaten before they began to slow down, and you chatted word by word.
This year can be said to be the happiest New Year ever enjoyed by Shangguan Qiuyu and Shangguan Xiong.
Shangguan Qiuyu was an orphan in his previous life, and the New Year was basically spent alone, so he rarely tried the taste of the New Year.
And Shangguan Xiong has not enjoyed the taste of family reunion for more than ten years because Shangguan Qiuyu's cheap father left home.
Although Nangong Shiluo and Nangong Muxue were unable to reunite with their parents because of the Chinese New Year, they felt some regrets.
However, because of Shangguan Qiuyu's presence and the charm of the hot pot, the second daughter did not bring this emotion to the table.
In addition to Shangguan Qiuyu and a few people, the happiest and busiest among them are the people in the house.
In the past few days, because of the hot pot, the servants of the Guogong Mansion have been busy.
Shangguan Qiuyu saw that everyone was too busy, so he sent someone to recruit all the large and small craftsmen in Yucheng.
Shangguan Qiuyu made a picture and handed it over to them to create, the interests of both parties were equally shared, and everyone made money together.
In this way, the fire boiler was quickly built, and it spread to thousands of households in the city in a short time.
Although the work of building the furnace was handed over, the workload of the servants did not decrease in the slightest.
Hot pot, whether it is popular or not, ultimately depends on the hot pot base, without a good hot pot base, no matter how good the stove looks, it is useless.
Although the hot pot base is simple, it can't stop the large demand for the whole Yucheng.
A group of servants who originally only needed to serve a group of sergeants and soldiers to eat and drink were directly pulled by Shangguan Qiuyu to work overtime to prepare the hot pot base.
Yucheng as the imperial city of Dayu, all kinds of materials are piled up, and only a few kinds of hot pot base materials can still be gathered.
It's just that the lack of manpower has become a big problem, which makes Shangguan Qiuyu have to bring in a group of soldiers from his own mansion to help.
Of course, this was only because it was too late for a while.
After a few days of stability, the steward of the palace had already mobilized all the servants outside the city.
I found a relatively idle and large workshop in the city, but the workshop that made hot pot base was moved out of the Guogong Mansion.
After all, the Guogong Mansion is not a workshop, but it cannot be used as a workshop for a long time.
Because this has a bad impact after all, maybe everyone starts to like this thing. Satisfy your appetite for the New Year.
The hands are short, the mouths are short, and the people will definitely not say anything in a short time.
But as soon as this craze passes, everyone will pay attention to these subsections, although Shangguan Qiuyu likes money, but the face of the Guogong Mansion still needs to be maintained.
In this way, the Guogong Mansion, which had been in turmoil for a few days, regained its calm again.
There is a way to move his mouth above and break his leg below, but Shangguan Qiuyu's kung fu of moving his mouth makes the busy feet of the housekeepers and servants not touch the ground.
Although everyone is busy, they are full of energy.
There is no other reason, just because everyone has earned from their hard work, although they are busy, but the reward is not bad.
Shangguan Qiuyu's generosity made them dare not slack off in the slightest about the tasks they had been given, and they worked hard one by one to repay the gift of their young master.
As a result, the Shangguan family, which had been silent for more than ten years and was like a backwater, was revitalized.
Chatting and chatting, Shangguan Xiong suddenly said to Shangguan Qiuyu:
"Yu'er, there is a will in the palace, you need to enter the palace in two days. ”
"Enter the palace?" Shangguan Qiuyu was a little puzzled, originally he had planned to go to the Guofu Academy with Nangong Muxue in two days.
Since the National Academy is not involved in any affairs between the DPRK and China, it rarely interacts with DPRK and Chinese officials.
For this reason, Shangguan Qiuyu could only use the prestige of the Shangguan family to go to the Guofu Academy in person, hoping to enter the Guofu Academy through self-recommendation.
There is no way, although Guofu College is allowed to go through the back door, but that can only be at the time of enrollment.
Entering halfway like Shangguan Qiuyu would obviously have a bad impact on Guofu Academy.
Therefore, if you want to enter the National Academy halfway, you need to have enough talent to impress the teachers and students of the National Academy.
Of course, Shangguan Qiuyu is now on the list of the National Academy, as long as he wants to enter, it is only a matter of one sentence.
However, everywhere has its rules, no rules are not a circle, Shangguan Qiuyu has to go through a series of assessments before entering the Guofu Academy.
These assessments seem unnecessary, but they are necessary, because only in this way can the teachers and students of the National Academy have a general understanding of his Shangguan Qiuyu.
After all, hearing is false, seeing is believing, and this can also block the mouths of those students who have grievances.
Seeing that his grandson looked puzzled, Shangguan Xiong was speechless, and the other party could forget such an important matter.
He didn't know what to say, but as soon as he returned to the house, he told him about the benefits of bathing in the dragon pool.
Shangguan Qiuyu was also happy when he heard it, but he was so busy these days that he forgot about it.
Seeing his cheap grandfather's speechless appearance, Shangguan Qiuyu suddenly realized, and then grinned awkwardly:
"Grandpa, don't be angry, didn't my grandson forget about it because he was too busy in the past two days?"
Shangguan Xiong shook his head when he heard this, he didn't care, he knew what kind of person his grandson was.
So, he reminded him:
"The Dragon Bath Pool is only opened once a year, and after two days, you will enter it with a few royal children.
There are many rules in the palace, you pay attention, you are not allowed to go in the past two days, stay in the house honestly and learn the rules of the palace, so as not to accidentally get into big trouble. ”
"Yes, Sun Er understands," Shangguan Qiuyu nodded in response.
On weekdays, Shangguan Qiuyu looks a little out of tune on the surface, but once he encounters serious things, he is not ambiguous.
Moreover, this kind of appearance can only be seen by those who are close to you, but ordinary people do not have this blessing.
In this regard, Shangguan Xiong is also happy to see his grandson like this, and his majesty is used to show outsiders and his subordinates.
It's better to be casual with your own family.
However, there are some things that should be paid attention to, the palace is not an ordinary place, and Shangguan Xiong naturally does not want his grandson to be caught in some details.
Although the ministers of the DPRK and China rarely get into trouble with the Shangguan family, this does not mean that the Shangguan family has no political enemies.
Some people can't fight on the surface, but secretly they are constantly making small movements.
Especially this time, Zhenguo Gong purged a group of generals in the army, many of whom were implicated, these people did not dare to say it, but there were many resentments in their hearts.
Shangguan Qiuyu also knows this, after all, the Dayu Dynasty has been inherited for thousands of years, and I don't know how many rules have been accumulated from generation to generation.
