People who know the relationship between historical cause and effect feel very bad when they stand in Chang'an City. On the one hand, they are a little proud, and on the other hand, they feel that since history is like this, everything they do seems to be in vain.
Soon, Yun Chu no longer had such worries.
Looking at the housekeeper of the human-cat Li Yifu family, Yunchu didn't even have the energy to worry.
"Thirty thousand yuan! This is my husband's salary for half a year. This time, all of it will be donated to Jinchangfang. I hope that the head of the village will not feel that the money is too small."
The steward of Li Yifu was very polite when he spoke. These words seemed to have been told by Li Yifu himself, because the steward's serious expression when he said these words was inconsistent with his humble words.
Yunchu asked Fangzheng Liu Yi to collect the money and politely gave it away to the steward who treated the money as charity.
There is no need to be angry because of the attitude of some people who give money, because the money is originally free.
If there were people giving money on such a large scale in the streets before Yunchu, it wouldn't matter even if he and his colleagues from the streets knelt down to greet them.
Thirty thousand yuan, thirty guan, can allow Yunchu to build thirty flower beds in Jinchangfang.
With these thirty flower beds, Yunchu was able to let Jinchangfang participate in the Chang'an City Huayuanfang City Competition and win the first prize in one fell swoop.
With these thirty flower beds, Yunchu can create several job opportunities for gardeners in Jinchangfang.
With these thirty flower beds, Yun Chu can earn enough money to maintain the operation of these thirty flower beds from the Chang'an people who come to Jinchangfang to visit, sightsee, and wander around.
This is the secret of the country's strength. The foundation of economic operation lies at the grassroots level. If the mayor of every city in Chang'an can consider the city as painstakingly as Yun Chu, the economic growth of Chang'an City will increase by at least dozens of times.
percentage points.
As more people send money, the standards of the gate must be continuously improved.
At the beginning, Yunchu planned to build a beautiful gate with wood, and add carved beams and painted pillars, which should be able to satisfy the emperor's longing for his mother.
When Cheng Yaojin and his family sent money, Yunchu began to consider using carved blue bricks to satisfy the emperor's appetite.
Now, even the human cat Li Yifu has sent his salary, so Yunchu decided to use stone materials to build the gate.
It is a pity that there is no such good stone as white marble near Chang'an, otherwise Yunchu would definitely use it. After all, only this kind of stone can perfectly express the noble nature of Queen Changsun.
The most important thing in Jinchangfang is the craftsmen, carpenters, stonemasons, joiners, and fine stonemasons. Many of them have participated in the construction of Taizong's mausoleum, and some have work experience.
The most expensive part of building a square gate is the materials, but Yunchu thought that labor is the least valuable. The best stonemason in Jinchangfang is the kind of craftsman who can carve stones into stone wengzhong.
The wages only cost ten dan and two kilograms of corn.
Standing at the gate of Jinchangfang, the first thing you see is always the magnificent Ci'en Temple.
So, Yunchu planned to carve a phoenix with fluttering wings out of light yellow granite at the entrance of Jinchangfang. Then, he made this phoenix complement each other with the magnificent Ci'en Temple behind it, and finally became the main attraction of Chang'an City.
of landmark buildings.
Liu Sancai, who communicates with the water system of Jinchangfang, met Yun Chu several times in the bathhouse. Under Yun Chu's suggestion, he finally became the first person in Chang'an City to provide temples, palaces, and villas for wealthy families.
A professional contractor team that produces water systems for small environments.
The first unit to use this contracting team is Daci'en Temple. They plan to use the high-water lotus pond to introduce the concept of water system into the temple's architecture.
This is very important for the temple. The entire Daci'en Temple is a brick and wood structure, which has very high requirements for fire protection.
With Liu Sancai's example, more people finally came to Jinchangfang bathhouse to take a bath.
The people who like to hang out with Yun Chu these days are two fine masons, one named Peng Wulang and the other named Zhang Ting.
These two people are both at the level of master craftsmen in the game. The difference from other masons is that their families have millet and millet to eat all year round.
Both of them expressed their intention to give Yun Chu a bath, but Yun Chu still liked to let the boy named Er Niu give him a bath.
"Chief, when it comes to fine masonry, my craftsmanship is not only the best in Chang'an, but at least it is the best in Jinchangfang..."
Before Peng Wulang could finish his words, Zhang Ting sneered on the other side of Yun Chu: "That's too big a statement and too shameless. You just carved two crudely made ones on the Shinto of Emperor Taizong's mausoleum.
Elephants, and Shi Wengzhong, who represents civil servants and generals, made two pairs by myself."
Yun Chu looked at the two lean masons from side to side, and said casually: "First carve the phoenix we want for me. If the phoenix is done well enough, then you two can lead a team of masons to get the job."
."
Peng Wulang pondered for a while and said: "You see, little man, as long as our village starts major renovations, other villages will probably not be able to sit still. Not to mention the poor villages in the south, the wealthy villages in the north will definitely follow suit.
The architectural model of our Jinchangfang comes from this.
As the chief said, there will be too much work to do.
The reason why the villain came to see the chief is because he wanted to ask the chief to help him and set up a contracting team like Liu Sancai."
Yun Chu took the repaired foot away from Er Niu's knee, put the other foot on it, and asked him to trim the toenails with a sharp knife.
This is another business that Yun Chu started for this child. He charges a penny to trim the nails of his hands and feet.
This kid is doing very well now. At the end of the day, he can earn three to five bucks just by cutting people's nails.
"Both of you are registered craftsmen, so you must think clearly about this. Don't get called away by the craftsman after you have finished half of the work. Over time, it will be easy to damage the signboard.
In addition, when it comes to charging, you must not be stupid, and don't quote a lower price than the other. If this cycle continues, you two will become idiots, and no one will be able to have enough.
You must remember that you people are different from the scattered craftsmen in the West Market. You only take on big jobs that the scattered craftsmen cannot.
It's the kind of job where you take one job after another for three years."
Peng Wulang and Zhang Ting saw that the chief didn't seem to care much about their affairs, so they looked at each other, kicked out the two men who were working, and said in a low voice: "The two of us are willing to leave two niu for the chief.
It’s a dry stock.”
Yun Chu looked at these two masons who wanted to treat him as a fool, and he still felt very emotional. Other things in the Tang Dynasty did not develop a bright spot, but the calculating heart of the merchants was no different from that of later generations.
Yun Chu called Er Niu back and continued to accept his nail polishing service. As for the two idiots Peng Wulang and Zhang Ting, he pretended they didn't exist.
It's not that easy to start a company. You must know that what Liu Sancai gave Yunchu was a real 30% of the shares, not a 20% of the shares that could be calculated by others.
Perhaps out of the pride of experts, Peng Wulang and Zhang Ting stopped increasing Yun Chu's benefits, and with dark faces, scrubbed their dirty bodies in the clear water.
Naha finally fell in love with bathing, especially taking a bath in a large bathhouse. She could splash around in the clear water and have a group of friends around her to play around. Every time she took a bath, Naha was the happiest.
time.
The brother and sister came out of the bathhouse with glowing faces and smiled at each other. It was not yet time for the evening meal, so they happened to go to Guangfufang to eat the mutton cakes with mutton head meat served by the young couple.
These days, the brother and sister have gone there twice, each time exchanging copper cakes for Hu cakes.
Naha also brought it back to Mr. Cui and Old Monkey, and they agreed to eat it.
It’s time to go horseback riding when going to Guangfufang. Both brothers and sisters are riding on the backs of bay-red horses. This scene is not uncommon in Chang’an City. Many fathers and daughters, or brothers and sisters also do this, but most of them are riding.
donkey.
The bay red horse soon took them to Guangfufang.
The beautiful little wife came up to her with a smile, but the young man's face was not pretty. Although his hands were busy all the time, he always had one eye looking at his wife.
In his eyes, Yunchu was a bully, a playboy, and a bully who always stared at his beautiful wife to make plans.
With the bonus of anger, he split open a sheep's head with one knife, with incredible strength and accuracy.
Naha raised her hand and touched her daughter-in-law's face, and imitated her elder brother's example by pressing her nose. Then, the brother and sister burst into laughter.
The pretty face of the young daughter-in-law will turn red, and the young man's eyes will be blazing, and the knife in his hand will be stronger, almost cutting the chopping board in half.
The Hu Pancakes are as crispy and fragrant as ever, and the mutton head meat is as crispy as ever. After adding salt and pepper, the taste is naturally as good as ever.
Six copper coins, three meat buns, a fair sale, and the smile on my daughter-in-law's face was purely a gift, which made the transaction come alive.
"Come back tomorrow!" Yun Chu sat on a tall horse and waved his sleeves to his young daughter-in-law, and he and Naha returned to Jinchangfang while eating cakes and meat.
When he was leaving the workshop, he vaguely heard the young man yelling and cursing. When Yun Chu looked back, the young man disappeared in a flash.
Guanzhong people have such a temper. Even if they know they can't be beaten, they still have to scold them back. However, when scolding, they must first ensure that they are safe.
Therefore, it is common in Chang'an for someone to suddenly jump up, curse, and then walk away.
The ultimate goal of Yunchu and Naha is Fengyifang.
It's New Year's Eve in two days. Mrs. Cui said she must order some Tusu wine and Jiaobai wine. It is said that one of these two wines can ward off evil spirits and the other can ward off the plague.
At the Ruyi Winery in Fengyifang, Yunchu personally tasted these two wines.
After drinking it, I realized that these two kinds of wine are unbearable to humans, let alone plague and ward off evil spirits.
After drinking Tusu wine, Yunchu tasted the familiar medicinal flavor of aconite.
He used this thing a lot in the Western Regions, but he used aconite to kill people, unlike the Chang'an people who used it to make wine.
As the name suggests, Jiaobai wine is a wine that contains the juice of Sichuan peppercorns and cypress leaves. After drinking Jiaobai wine, his mouth and tongue became numb. After drinking Tusu wine, Yunchu could no longer taste the aconitum in the wine.
The combination of these two kinds of wine is very interesting. If Yunchu needs to kill someone during the Chinese New Year this year, he is going to make use of this way of drinking.
Anyway, people in the Tang Dynasty must drink these two kinds of wine when celebrating New Year's Eve.
