Take the mall to Datang

It was the first time for Li Chengqian to see such a scene, and he was immediately full of vanity. He looked like a little adult, and listened carefully to everyone's speech.

Li Chengqian is very smart. Listening to these businessmen talking about things is different from those ministers talking about things. They are simple and direct, which makes it easier for him to understand the content of the conversation.

If he hadn't been with Yuan Shan, he wouldn't have known that businessmen would have such great energy, and they could hire tens of thousands of people to work for them with just a little money. What kind of energy is this, but he hasn't really Recognize the role of businessmen, after all, businessmen are looked down upon in this era.

His status is not even as good as that of a farmer, and he is even more dismissive as a prince, but now he seems to have found something human.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will take [-]% of the corn planting project. If you have any interest, please vote with a show of hands. It is very good for all to pass." Yuan Shan said.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness, from now on you are the shareholder of the corn project, and we will work together for the development of the corn industry." Yuan Shan said.

Then everyone began to applaud, Li Chengqian was a little dazed, but he understood that the production of this corn would be linked to his income in the future, although he didn't know how much it would benefit.

With the crown prince in charge, the Cotton Chamber of Commerce will be smooth sailing within a few years, which can also condense the emotions of the merchants. After all, it is easy to enjoy the shade by relying on a big tree.

When sending the prince away, Yuan Shan also gave him a newly assembled wooden bicycle in the offense and defense, which was an improved model with brakes.

Pedaling his bicycle all the way back, Li Chengqian was so happy, the whole street was full of people looking at him.

After returning to the East Palace, he became more energetic. The road here is much better than the street, and the speed is faster. This two-wheeled bicycle is much lighter than his three-wheeled bicycle, and the wheels are pressed with very strong Leather, to reduce the bumps.

"His Royal Highness, I finally found you. Lu Xueshi (Bachelor of Literature) is waiting for you to give a lecture. It has been a long time since I sent someone to find you." Donggong came humanely.

It was only now that I remembered, how about skipping class today? Lu Deming forgot about it, hurriedly pushed the bicycle back to his residence, and quickly ran to class.

Li Chengqian still respects his teacher very much, it was like this when he was a child...

There are generally more people on the streets of Chang’an City this winter than in previous years. Families, young and old, come out for a stroll in thick cotton-padded clothes. When they meet a seller of candied haws, they will buy a bunch of them for their children.

In the restaurant in the inner courtyard of the Yuanjia Manor, Yunxi was leading the cooks to make candied haws. The workload of the kitchen was much reduced without hundreds of female workers.

The price of hawthorn has increased a bit this winter, because the business of candied haws is very hot, and the Zheng family has not let go of the opportunity to make money this winter, and some new patterns of candied haws have begun to appear, such as sesame candied haws.

All the hawthorns in Yuanjia Manor were bought secretly by Yuanshan from the mall. They were big and round. The three big carts of hawthorns were all booked in less than ten days. The sales volume continued unabated, and the income was approaching a thousand dollars.

The Zheng family has started planting hawthorns this year. In the future, he may not need to always exchange them for hawthorns, but he still has to do it now.

It's already December, and the farmers who were supposed to be lively have basically all gone to work to help the pankang. The money can't stop at all, and even Yuanshan's price for hiring helpers is generally mentioned at [-] per day Wenqi.

Every household in Wulizhuang has bid farewell to thatched houses, and now a small number of them live in houses built of cement and wood. Those who have money would rather save money to build the same house as their neighbors, which makes the scene in Wulizhuang more unique.

Then Silizhuang and Sanlizhuang began to follow suit. At the end of the year, Dugu Ruolan and Du Qianyu should be numb looking at the total of 300 coins in the accounts. Now there are a lot of gold, silver and copper coins They were all piled up in the basement under their feet, equivalent to [-] taels of gold, which did not include the final payment for the Zheng family's cement.

Yuanshan's family was considered to be a little richer last year, but now he has become a rich man after a year has passed.

This year's Winter Games was even more grand. It was held for three consecutive days, and it was open to the outside world. After vigorous publicity in the early stage, it attracted many people from the beginning.

This year's sports meeting is sponsored by the Cotton Chamber of Commerce. Zheng Qi and others have also formulated some small games, such as guessing riddles, reciting poems and composing the right words, and winning prizes are candied haws.

The candied gourds are all produced by the Zheng family, and the Cotton Chamber of Commerce purchases them. Zheng Qi is very good at taking advantage of the opportunity to make money, and Xue Kai and other big shopkeepers of the Chamber of Commerce contracted the rice flower business.

At the Winter Games, a snack service station was also set up to sell snacks. The special pancake stand of Yuanjia Manor also joined in. The usual price is so high that the price here doubles again. The human cost is seven or eight pennies.

Rice crackers are so cheap that you can buy one for a penny, regardless of whether you are an adult or a child.

The dragon boats are made more sophisticated, the rules are gradually improved, the prizes are more generous, and the competition is more professional and full of competition.

The sports meeting also added small ice hockey competitions, speed skating events, ice monkey collision events, and some juggling troupes took the initiative to participate in the performances, and the highlight was the sword dance performance by Guo Xiang, the daughter of Guo Shouyi.

This is a program that Yuan Shan made up in his spare time. If Guo Xiang hadn't come to ask him for Tai Chi sword lessons, Yuan Shan would have almost forgotten little Guo Xiang, and there was another female apprentice invisible.

Guo Xiangzai stood alone on the high platform, elegant and refined, with white clothes like snow, a bright white fairy sword standing in front of the wind, hair flying, and a unique ethereal feeling.

Then Guo Xiang began to dance the sword, showing this improved version of Tai Chi sword in the form of opening and closing with movement and movement freely. What you see on the high platform is full of sword shadows (reflection), giving people endless reverie .

Then the crowd followed suit and shouted: "Female Sword Fairy!"

Chapter 179

Overnight, Guo Xiang's dancing posture shocked the world.

But no one knew her name, and later this female sword fairy was said by the bed to be a heroine walking the rivers and lakes.

When Yuan Shan met Guo Xiang, he directly called Guo Nvxia. This made the young Guo Xiang feel ashamed and ashamed, and Guo Shouyi reprimanded him for dancing swords in public. Xiang didn't intend to be the number one dancer in the Tang Dynasty, otherwise Guo Shouyi wouldn't settle accounts with him right now.

A winter sports event has spread in Chang'an City, and many people are looking forward to next year's event, which also allows businessmen to find business opportunities, food and entertainment are all things that can make money.

Yuan Shan took this good opportunity to suggest that he could come up with some more activities, such as becoming a polo team, which can usually be used for people to buy tickets to watch, and can provide many entertainment items for the people of Datang, but the polo hall They need to figure it out on their own.

He just came up with an idea. In addition, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had a great time during the month. All twelve guards formed a football team, and football became popular all of a sudden.

The rich businessmen are even more good at playing, and they even organized a women's football team. When they were at home, they let the maidservants play football for fun. Unexpectedly, the more they played the better, and the better wealthy businessmen planned to hold a women's football competition.

Since the last game, Du Gou and other referees have become popular. Many wealthy businessmen have spent a lot of money to invite them to be referees to teach football rules and some corresponding skills. In disguise, these referees are looking towards football coaches. direction development.

Because of this incident, Du Gou became a soldier, and is currently serving as an errand in the Ministry of War. This kid Du He went to Li Chengqian's football team. play soccer.

In the Yuan Family Manor, Yuan Shan kept shaking.

"Lan'er, don't shake it, can you, my arm is almost torn off by you." Yuan Shan said helplessly.

"It doesn't matter, young master, who told you to only teach Guo Xiang how to dance the sword and not Lan'er, I want to learn it." Lan Lan said coquettishly, her body was still shaking coquettishly, and Yuan Shan was also shaking along with her.

"Girls should not dance with guns and swords, but be quiet girls." Yuan Shan argued.

"Hey, the young master is biased." Lan Lan continued to say softly.

"Still jumping, aren't you afraid of spraining your feet again?" Yuan Shan asked.

"Not afraid." Lan Lan replied very simply.

"Okay, then the young master will teach you, come and hold me tight." Yuan Shan said.

"Master, you are good or bad, and you take advantage of others." Lan Lan said coquettishly.

"Then do you still want to learn?" Yuan Shan asked.

"Of course." Lan Lan said happily, and immediately rushed towards Yuan Shan.

The girl's fragrance came to his nostrils in an instant, and Yuan Shan didn't expect that the situation would suddenly become like this. This octopus-like posture made people angry.

Lan Lan was ashamed and closed her eyes tightly, like a little lamb "waiting to be slaughtered".

"Lan'er, what are you doing, you're not hugging like this..." Yuan Shan wanted to explain, but suddenly he heard a scream from the door.

"Bad girl, let go of my young master!" Caiyi shouted with all her strength.

"..." Yuan Shan's hair was black, it seemed that he was misunderstood.
