Chapter 41: Daily life in Chang'an (2)

"House of ten thousand chunks, ride a crane to Yangzhou."

After paying to leave the food shop, Meng Fan muttered this poem for the second time, and his mood was completely different from entering the capital to look at Yangzhou City by the imperial edict, and he was a bit serious.

I'm afraid this is not trying to exhaust the crane?!

One cash is a hundred documents, and ten cash is a consistent one.

Six hundred stags of money have weighed more than two and a half tons.

How many tons are 100,000 guan?

Meng Fan practiced the Emperor's body-building technique, not talking about the technique of the pot sky, but just the power of the body, which is just the ability to carry a short mountain of a hundred meters. If a hundred thousand tangles are wrapped around his waist, it is completely suffocated, so how to wrap it up... It is a big problem.

I can only say that the ancients exaggerated it.

Among them, Li Taibai is the best, but the hundreds of poems about drinking wine are not considered false. The Tang Dynasty's alcohol content is not high, and it does not test the liver's ability to relieve alcohol. The main thing is to have a good stomach and be able to drink ten cups of beer in a row.

As for the scenes you often see in later film and television dramas: When you conduct in-depth research in Pingkangfang and learn about the sufferings of the people, you met a girl with a miserable life experience.

She is a literary worker, with great achievements in bel canto singing and dancing. She also has deep attainments in cutting, makeup, literature, poetry, and massage of the opposite sex. She is truly a versatile and heartbreaking confidante.

The most rare thing is that she unfortunately fell to this point, but she has noble character and a decent and rigorous lifestyle. She is a noble white lotus that is not stained with mud.

However, the madam was greedy for money and met a bad guy with impure minds and thoughts, and was asked to leave the house, and the price was higher.

The evil young man had a thousand stakes of copper coins, and a hundred pieces of Shu brocade. The white lotus sat beside him and lowered his head and shed tears. He was so charming that he called the young master to be passionate and vowed to take the beauty home and escape from this sea of ​​suffering and not wither in the dust.

So, you were so cruel that I took it easy, slapped the table with a big hand and said proudly:

"I used a thousand taels of silver to redeem my wife's good deeds!"

When the beauty heard this, she looked up at your heroic figure. She was lost for a moment, as if she had found a true wishful husband and would serve you wholeheartedly in the future.

The greedy old madam was also shocked and stuttered and confirmed: "How much does a man have?"

"Someone has a thousand taels of silver with patterns!"

His voice was particularly proud and his eyes looked down on a bunch of local chickens and dogs. The evil young man was shocked and he dared not speak at all.

Immediately afterwards, the madam looked at Bai Lianhua. Bai Lianhua looked back at the madam, curled her mouth and pulled out the veil from her sleeve to wipe her tears. The former instantly understood, and her face turned ashen and expelled her from the ground:

"The country is very strict and the country is bounded by the bride. I cannot bear the grace of noble people. Please, please, I will give it to you not far away."

This is better luck.

If you have a bad temper, you will be ordered by the guard guard to carry your neck and kick it out.

Or, call a bad person on the street to arrest you and go to the government to get a slap and carefully examine the case.

Because the silver in the Tang Dynasty was not a liquid currency, it was concentrated in the palace and cast into various instruments, and some of them were left for their own use, and the rest were rewarded to their subordinates.

Use silver tattoos in the brothel to redeem the young lady?

There are only three possible sources of silver.

The emperor gave you the grand grace, time, origin, source, name of the craftsman, and the person in charge, and you will know the whole story after checking it. You can actually go to Pingkangfang to save the little lady?

I really give the emperor and the mansion a face!

The second type is the filial piety sent by local officials from the silver-producing district to the mansion. They are so generous and arrogant, are they afraid that your father will go to the prison to have dinner too late?

Finally, he robbed the convoys of taxes and tributes from various prefectures and prefectures, the caravans of Hu merchants in the Western Regions, or attacked the government warehouses in the middle of the night, stole the imperial deposits, and came to Pingkangfang to rush to sell the stolen goods, so he was so generous!

But the magic is that silver is not circulating, but gold is very popular.

All the officials have familiar confidants in Pingkangfang. They usually give some gold skulls and golden cakes, or ask craftsmen to give them gold and silver jewelry, such as gold hairpins and silver combs. There is no problem at all.

Not only that, don’t carry a few kilograms of copper coins on your body when you go out to play. The girl will let you eat, drink and have fun for free.

Shangguan Wan'er is a real rich man, not to mention Taiping. She disliked the vulgarity of silver-shouldered gold cakes and directly asked the imperial craftsmen in the palace to make them into leaves that were vivid.

delicate.

nice.

Exquisite.

valuable.

It’s not for those bald donkeys to be jealous.

If we look at the wealthy people in Chang'an in the future, they would be really rustic and generous. They would go out for high consumption, followed by a row of convertible ox carts and a car of Kaiyuan Tongbao to the west market.

Meng Fan was lucky enough to see it again.

Three ox carts were loaded with money, surrounded by strong sword-holding servants, and the most conspicuous one was the front. A middle-aged man with a big belly stood a Kunlun slave on each side.

This slave's body was dark, and after a process called "黑" or "caught power", his value immediately began to soar. He had to buy it with gold. He was the most loyal guard of the men.

In the world of the Republic of China, Meng Fan chatted with Qiu Sheng. After hearing this, he and Wencai were immediately particularly interested in Africa and thought of the plan to make a fortune.

"Langjun, do you think Hu Ji is good-looking?"

Li Lingyue asked.

Jealousy can be smelled far away.

Before they knew it, the three of them came to Xishi, one of the two most famous business districts in Chang'an City.

Meng Fan moved his eyes away from the rich carriage and found a high-necked and deep-necked Hu girl not far away, with a slender waist and a hot appearance, vividly interpreting what an exotic style is.

According to a colleague, my eyes are deep but the Xiangjiang River water is so it’s good to change the taste occasionally.

Ahem...the price is also cheap.

Generally, they work in restaurants. The people around the house are like the moon, and the white wrists are frosty and snow. Because the beard's skin is fair, it can satisfy some of the fantasies of literati and poets, so they also stay together.

Shangguan Wan'er also looked at Meng Fan with curious eyes. There were countless pretty palace maids in the Forbidden Palace who felt sad about her feelings and secretly felt her heart. As a result, he seemed to have practiced the way of forgetting love.

The princess is from a noble family and can be predicted that she can definitely compete with the Queen Mother after she grows up, but Meng Fan always maintains her composure and never goes beyond the rules.

A ball of flame encountered the cold lake?

Or, as Taiping said, like exotic oracles.

"I..."

Meng Fan was amused and crying. He was clearly attracted by the demeanor of the rich people in Chang'an just now, but he suffered such misunderstandings, and it was difficult to explain whether he could explain it or not.

In the end, there was no explanation, so he shook his head helplessly and led Li Lingyue and Shangguan Wan'er, two girls who were more beautiful than Hua, to continue wandering around the West Market.

As a woman, she is keen on shopping.

Common in ancient and modern times.

All kinds of rouge powder, buy and buy!

Persian snails, from the far Western Regions, came from the mutated snails in the sea. The best thrush that women all over the world dream of is ten gold.

An official surnamed Lu who was shopping with his wife while taking advantage of the break, shook his head and sighed to Meng Fan:

"The women in our imperial capital Chang'an are really good at spending money."

However, no matter how expensive it is, you have to buy it, otherwise the house will be unstable.

Meng Fan didn't care about money, he never lacked it. He bought two for Li Lingyue and asked Shangguan Wan'er again, but she shook her head, as if I had despised the powder stains and had always been plain.

Not long after, I bought a bunch of spices, Shu brocade and Jiangnan fabrics. When I asked her why she bought these, she was still mysterious and unwilling to say it.
Chapter completed!
