[Journey to the West] Wukong purchasing

When the future son-in-law came to be a guest at home, Wu Yun and Jiang Su asked the kitchen to prepare a sumptuous dinner.

The whole leg of lamb is first marinated with seasoning, then slowly grilled over charcoal fire, and sprinkled with a layer of cumin and pepper in the middle.At this time in the Tang Dynasty, cumin and pepper are precious spices, and the price of a tael of pepper is more expensive than gold.

However, this is nothing to Wu Hong. This guy is worried that the money in his Xingwang account will not belong to him someday. It is difficult to buy seasonings in Datang, so five warehouses are stockpiled, not to mention that they eat it themselves, even a dozen more spice shops are enough to use it.

It's just that Wu Yun and Jiang Su worried that if they took out too much at once, the market price would be impacted, and those Hu merchants who made a living would lose their money, so they kept them in the warehouse and took them out every month. You don't have to worry about it if you sell less and eat it at home.On the contrary, the housekeeper, Lu Weng, whenever he sees his host's family using these precious spices for cooking, he can't wait to watch the chef cook himself, for fear that the cook will take the opportunity to be greedy for spices - these spices only need a small handful, and the gold in exchange is worth A cook who could buy an entire kitchen.

The weather is cold, today the Wu family just asked Zhuangzi to kill a sheep and send it. The best lamb chops were chopped into evenly sized pieces. Mutton stewed radish, this pot is also a custom-made one-piece pot made by Wu's Food Shop. On the top is a mandarin duck pot. One side is clear water mutton, and the other side is braised mutton. Come to boil vegetables and mutton slices to eat.

Jiang Su also asked the kitchen to bake dozens of mutton biscuits that are crispy and golden on both sides with coarse wheat noodles, and stew the mutton with delicious water. He ordered a few plates of roasted lamb legs to come over and drank warm osmanthus wine. Even Jiang Su, who was once obsessed with academics, had to admit that this person just couldn't be comfortable. Writing feels exhausting.

It's still a comfortable life in Datang!

It's already curfew time after dinner. Fortunately, it's not the first time Tang Xuanzang has lived in Wu's house. After the two got married, Jiang Su asked someone to clean up the room he used to live in and vacated it. , Tang Xuanzang lived directly in Wu's house, and went to court from Wu's house the next morning.

"By the way, Bajie gave you the elixir, have you given it to your uncles and aunts?" Tang Xuanzang asked suddenly on the way back to his room.

"Not yet, I'm going to find a Taoist priest who can make alchemy to help me. I'm not afraid that the elixir is poisonous. It's mainly produced by the Heavenly Court. If the medicine is too overbearing, it will harm my parents." Relationship Boss Wu was very cautious when it came to his parents' bodies.

"How many do you have?"

"Bajie gave me five pills and told me to keep two or three pills. In case something happens to Yuwen's house next door, this pill can also be used to save people."

"There are a few Taoists who are good at alchemy in the palace. Give me one of the elixir, and I will ask it for you tomorrow." Tang Xuanzang looked at the two young men leading the way in front, and leaned over to Wu Kong'er. Bian whispered, "Don't worry, Your Majesty never believes in pills."

Although His Majesty Li Er used Yuan Tiangang, he never took pills himself. Those Taoist priests who made alchemy in the palace were raised by Emperor Taizu in the past. Since His Majesty Li Er ascended the throne, these Taoist priests have lost the old emperor. Backing them up, but they didn't dare to escape from the palace, they were too busy in the palace, so they just happened to find something for them to do.Otherwise, isn't it a waste of the country's rice grain to raise it for nothing?

"That's great. The level of Taoist priests in the palace should be much better than those outside. You don't need to study it too carefully if you ask them to help me. You just need to confirm whether it will have any effect on the body after taking it. "

"Well! Let's take a look first. If they are willing to work hard, I have a way to make them reused by His Majesty." Tang Xuanzang has long wanted to get out the gunpowder weapons of later generations, but unfortunately, this thing is too lethal. Well, if His Majesty Li Er really knows that he made this thing, then there is no need to guess. He will never leave Chang'an City for the rest of his life until he dies, and he will never leave His Majesty Li Er's sight.

Otherwise, if he is captured by the enemy country, wouldn't Tang be doomed?

Therefore, Tang Xuanzang has been looking for suitable candidates in the court to "discover" gunpowder weapons since he became a member of Zhongshushe.

In fact, some alchemy Taoists discovered gunpowder at this time, but in history, gunpowder was used in military affairs until the Zhaozong period at the end of the Tang Dynasty. The ball is tied under the arrowhead, ignited and shot out, or the ignited gunpowder is thrown out with a trebuchet. The lethality is completely incomparable with the firearms of later generations. It is not so much a firearm as an ignition device.

After listening to Elder Tang's analysis, Wu Hao nodded accordingly. He felt that Elder Tang was good at this. He took everything one step at a time and looked at ten steps. Unlike him, he only thought of looking for a Taoist priest after he got the elixir. If it were Elder Tang, he probably had already figured out how to tell if the pill could be given to mortals before he went to ask Zhu Bajie for the pill.

Alas, this is the gap between a top student and a bad student.

It's a pity that both of them are men. In this era, it's not like the Star Alliance can use an incubator to have children. Otherwise, he really wants to have two children with Elder Tang to have fun with Elder Tang's genes. They must all be high school students... Anyway, their family has plenty of money, so they don't have to worry about being able to afford it.

Sure enough, after the next day, Elder Tang asked His Majesty Li Er for instructions, saying that he wanted to go to the Taoist priests left behind by the former emperor to ask about some pills.

His Majesty Li Er was very surprised, but he heard Tang Xuanzang said that Wu Kong got a few new pills. He wanted to eat them but was afraid that he would spoil his stomach, so he wanted to find a Taoist priest who could make alchemy to help him. He was worried that Wu Kong would be blind outside. When you meet a liar, losing some money is a trivial matter. If you really get eaten up, it will be troublesome. Then you laughed and agreed, and asked the inner prisoner around you to take him there, and laughed at him. It's Wu Kong.

"My minister and Wu Kong are both men, and it is unacceptable for the world to be married. If I don't even protect him, how can my father-in-law and mother-in-law be willing to hand him over to my minister?" Tang Xuanzang replied respectfully.

"Go! Those Taoist priests are idle too." His Majesty Li Er seemed to be in a good mood and waved his hands.

Empress Changsun just ordered someone to send her the clear water mutton soup stewed by herself. It is said that the pot was newly produced in Wu's food shop. A stew pot can come up with new tricks, so Wu Yun is also a genius. People, it's no wonder that such a family is willing to let their son marry a man.

Of course, this is also because His Majesty Li Er had met Wu Yun, and felt that Wu Yun was not very old, and he might have several more children in the future. He sacrificed a son, but caught Tang Xuanzang, the wealthy son-in-law. Good deal.No, not long after his son got engaged to Tang Xuanzang, didn't he become the Chengfeng Lang of Cong Bapin?

Elder Tang took the elixir and brought it back within two days. He told Wu Hao that several Taoist priests had read the elixir, and even checked it with a small file. There was indeed no poison. The result is: Although eating may not have any effect, it will not kill people.

Wu Hao immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, and poured out one from the small bottle containing the pill, and handed it to Elder Tang: "Grandma is getting old, so take this pill to her old man to strengthen her body." .”

"Then I won't be polite. By the way, my grandmother just gave me two shops in the West Market. I'm busy with business now, so it's a pity to leave them for rent collection for nothing. You can take them to see what business you can do. A few days ago Doesn’t time mean that your terminal seems a little unstable? In my opinion, it’s safer to buy more properties near Chang’an City.” Tang Xuanzang is familiar with the history of the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years. In his opinion, other places Putting it aside, Chang'an City will only become more and more prosperous in the next few decades. If they buy some properties now, even if they want to move to other places, they can make a lot of money by reselling them, which is a good deal!

"Okay, then I won't be polite to you. I just wanted to open two new workshops recently. It would be much more convenient to have a shop." Wu Hao was not polite to Elder Tang either.

A few days ago, my parents bought more than 2000 disaster victims to build infrastructure for their homes. Now those adult men are sent to various places to build warehouses and houses. It's more troublesome, especially for underage children. They can't be allowed to wash dishes in Wu's restaurant, right?

After much deliberation, it just so happened that Wu Hong was doing crazy shopping on the Star Network recently, and he really thought of a good idea to get the best of both worlds——

Open a workshop!

Star Alliance’s synthetic textiles are very cheap. A large roll of light yarn with a length of 10 meters and a width of 50 centimeters can be purchased in large quantities for only 8 to 9 star coins per roll, and it is available in various colors. It is light and elegant. The only fly in the ointment is the hand feel. It's not as good as natural, but it's not a big problem: it can't be used as clothes, but it can be made into head flowers or other decorations.

Tang people like hairpin flowers, but the best flowers are very expensive, and ordinary people can't afford flowers. On the contrary, silk flowers of various colors are more common in ordinary people's homes, but the price of silk cloth is also very expensive, which is not affordable by ordinary people. , Wu Hao decided to purchase a batch of synthetic yarn first, and then find some handy needlewomen to try to make some samples. The manual workshop does not have a big age limit for the practitioners, as long as the eyes can see and the hands can move, they can go to Seventy-year-olds can do it down to young children.

Originally, Wu Hao wanted to take the wholesale route. He opened a processing workshop in his own home, and the yarn flowers he made were wholesaled to small traders for sale. Select some articulate ones from those victims, and directly open two shops selling yarn flowers and various yarn accessories. It is more profitable to produce and sell them yourself.

Wu Hao decided to learn from Xueba Elder Tang, plan ahead, and go to Zhuangzi to pick someone tomorrow!Hurry up and make the first batch of gauze flowers. Winter is about to begin, and flowers will be even more rare at that time, and when everyone has to wear new clothes and jewelry for the New Year, if you are lucky, you may even be able to buy them again. Can make a small fortune.

But before that, he had to send the longevity pill that Zhu Bajie got for him to his parents.

"Is there really such a thing? If you eat it, you won't be able to fly to the sky like Chang'e, right?" Wu Yun and Jiang Su looked at each other while pinching the life-prolonging elixir sent by Wu Kong.

Although they have long accepted the fact that their son has turned into a monkey monster, the couple have been living in Chang'an City. After all, they don't have as much contact with this world where immortals, demons, demons, and humans coexist. The elixir, I almost thought I ran into a charlatan who set up a stall in the West Market.

"Don't worry, it will be good if you really fly up. When the time comes, let Zhu Bajie transfer you and Mom to his canopy marshal's mansion. Forgive him and he will not dare to neglect you." Wu Hao pointed to Yuwen's house next door, "He The daughter-in-law still calls you a godmother, and Zhu Bajie has to call you a mother, even if he is afraid of his wife, how dare he be disrespectful to his mother-in-law?"

This is true!Zhu Bajie was devoted to the reincarnated Gao Cuilan, there was no need to harm them, Jiang Su squeezed the fragrant pill, and stuffed it into his mouth, Wu Yun saw that his wife had eaten it, and swallowed it neatly.

a long time--

"Dad, Mom, how do you feel?" He said he believed in Zhu Bajie, but in fact, Wu Kong was a little uncertain.

"I don't feel anything, wait, I, my stomach hurts a little!"

"Me too."

The couple clutched their stomachs and didn't bother to say hello to Wu Kong, and went to the bathroom separately.

The toilet of the Wu family is probably the most luxurious in Chang'an City. After Wu Yun and Jiang Su bought this house, they spent a lot of effort to renovate the bathroom. Using the specially customized pipes burned in the kiln, two public toilets were built in the house, one at the front and the other at the front. The room where the owner lives also has an independent bathroom. Handrails are designed, so that's the case. After squatting on the toilet for half an hour, the couple couldn't help but their legs were weak. They couldn't stand up while holding on to the toilet's handrails. They had to call the maid and the servant to help them to in the room.

"Isn't this elixir expired?" The couple looked at each other, but a few days later, looking at Jiang Su, whose skin was as fair and tender as a young girl, and her newly grown thick black hair, Wu Yun had no choice but to Admittedly, although this elixir will not make their husband and wife soar in the sky, the improvement of their physique is extremely significant.

Going home that day, Wu Hong heard that his parents, who were over half a century old, went out on a date together again.

"It looks like I'm going to have younger brothers and sisters soon." After returning to her mother's house and eating dog food, Wu Hao couldn't help complaining to Elder Tang.

"Grandmother's complexion is also much better than before, but my aunt asked about this elixir, and I said that we got it by chance from an eminent monk, and there are only three of them in total, so don't let it slip " Tang Xuanzang said with a smile.

This is another benefit of his marriage with Wu Kong. Their trust in each other has long surpassed family affection, and even Tang Xuanzang can complain to Wu Kong without any burden if there are some things that even his grandmother can't say.

He has wandered in this world for thousands of years, and now, he finally has someone to confide in.
