Good Life in Qin Dynasty

Qin Shihuang, who didn't understand, could only stand aside depressedly, and the new empress Qin Anjun, who knew how to do it, couldn't put it down.

What is worthless in Ying Zheng's eyes is very popular with Li Jiyang.

Unconvinced, Ying Zheng found a gold-plated copper hanging pot inlaid with precious stones, and brought it to Li Jiyang: "How about this?"

Li Jiyang glanced at it: "Not bad, not bad, but it's not as good as the painted dragon and rare insects."

cowry.

Ying Zheng choked: "This is a gold-plated copper hanging pot inlaid with precious stones!"

Li Jiyang nodded: "Of course I know!"

This thing was owned by a folk collector in later generations. It is said to be something from the Han Dynasty, but because I vigorously developed the value of Mohists, this thing came out in advance, and the shape is more exquisite and the balance is better.

The inspiration for this thing came from Libra.

Li Jiyang wanted the Mohist Academy to make a scale, and use this as a basis to unify weights and measures.

As a result, Libra didn't make it, so I fiddled with it first.

And because of the absence of more than 2000 years of wind, frost, snow and rain, this thing is now brilliant, and the gems are also shining brightly.

"What is this?" Ying Zheng saw another thing.

This object is in the shape of a bull's head, about three feet long. The jade vessel is divided into two parts: the bull's head and the jade sword. delicate.

"This is called the five-color Qin cattle head pendant jade carving!" Li Jiyang touched it curiously: "It's something from the Western Zhou Dynasty!"

The Great Zhou Dynasty lasted more than 800 years, and this thing has been around for at least 400 years now. It can be preserved so well, and the cytoplasm is also very crystal clear. It can be seen that it is a good thing!

And it's a bright weapon, not a dark weapon!

Ming artifacts have been passed down in the hands of living people.

The ghost weapon is something dug out of the tomb.

At this time, we don't pay attention to tomb robbery, what we pay attention to is that death is the most important thing.

Anyone who dares to rob a tomb will be beheaded if caught!

Jade carvings are in line with the characteristics of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the surface of the jade is rich and colorful. So far, many ethnic minorities still retain the custom of piercing the head of a bull with a sword, which fully reflects the cultural inheritance from generation to generation.

Now that this thing is here, Li Jiyang is of course happy!

"Now the emperor of Zhou has been gone for two or three years, and the Zhou Dynasty is nothing more than that." Ying Zheng lost interest when he heard that it belonged to the Zhou Dynasty.

Li Jiyang understood that they didn't care about any ancient relics at this time, because in their opinion, no matter how good the things of the previous dynasty were, they could not be as good as heaven in this dynasty.

Moreover, it was not popular to collect antiques at this time. Many things were passed down from generation to generation, and there was no special collection.

Moreover, the Zhou Dynasty was too close to the Qin Dynasty, and they all felt that the things of the Zhou Dynasty didn't matter anymore, and they were not as good as those of the Xia Dynasty!

How would they know that after more than 2000 years, all kinds of conjectures about them by later generations?

The congratulatory gifts given by the officials are naturally different, and many of them are very precious. Of course, gifts cannot be measured by money, but Li Jiyang is very happy to receive them!

"From now on, these will all belong to the Kyushu Museum!" Li Jiyang pointed to many ancient relics and announced, "It's very historically significant!"

"Whether it has historical significance or not, I don't know, anyway, I know I'm going to be hungry!" Ying Zheng directly asked Li Jiyang to drop what was in his hand: "Go to the harem. Brother is waiting for the family banquet!"

After the emperor's wedding, the emperor had a three-day holiday, and he and the queen were in harmony. It was rare for the two of them to rest for three days without memorials, government affairs, and chores.

"Okay, I'm hungry too!" Although I only got up in the morning and had some snacks at noon, I'm hungry now.

It's a family banquet, it's really a family banquet.

There are three members of Li Xin's family, Ying Zheng and Li Jiyang, as well as the empress dowager and empress dowager of the two palaces, and the emperor's younger brother.

There is no one else.

When the two came, they paid a formal visit to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, and got three big red envelopes.

"In the future, no matter publicly or privately, we will really be a family."

The Empress Dowager Huayang shed tears of joy.

If it weren't for Li Jiyang, she couldn't get rid of her breath. At first, she could hear people talking about the old woman's life every day, which was very relieved; later, she listened to it every now and then, and it was also very relieved; until now, It's been a long time since I heard it, but she is in a good mood and is no longer angry.

"Yes, live a good life in the future." The Empress Dowager Xia was actually a little awkward about her grandson marrying Li Jiyang at first, but after being analyzed and explained by others, she accepted it.

"Yes, listen to the empress dowagers of the two palaces, and live a good life in the future." Zhao Ji gave her two sets of clothes made by herself.

After Zhao Ji came back from Zhao, besides the emperor's younger brother Fusu, only Li Xin could often wear the clothes she sewed by herself.

After so many years, I started sewing again and made a set of clothes for the two of them.

The clothes are not very delicate, the advantage is that the stitches are dense, and the cloth is woven by Zhao Ji herself.

This is so precious.

Ying Zheng and Li Jiyang thanked Zhao Ji again before taking their seats.

As soon as the two were seated, Fusu came over: "Red envelope!"

He is a junior, so he doesn't need to prepare gifts for him, just ask for red envelopes.

"Okay, red envelope!" Li Jiyang was already prepared.

I made two small red envelopes as big as pockets with bright red silk, and filled them with gold pancakes.

"Here, the red envelope!" Ying Zheng threw it over.

That red envelope brought a gust of wind!

"Hey...!" Li Jiyang was terrified, and wanted to go to the list, but he didn't get it! Who knew that Fusu caught it easily: "Thank you, brother!"

Li Jiyang: "...!"

"Brother Yang, don't you want some?" Fusu looked at him pitifully.

"Here, here!" Li Jiyang handed the red envelope to Fusu normally with both hands: "Being more handsome and smarter!"

"Thank you Brother Yang!" Fusu was delighted when he saw such a big red envelope.

Of course, there is also Li Xin's family, one for each person, even the one in Li Yaojiang's belly has a share.

After distributing the red envelopes, the banquet began.

The things prepared are the favorites of several people on weekdays, and freshly baked fish cakes, which Li Jiyang loves most.

After eating the family banquet, rinsing mouth, tasting tea, someone delivered a newspaper: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the first edition of the newspaper has been published."

"Oh?" Li Jiyang was happy: "Take a look!"

They got married yesterday, which is a headline for the newspaper.

Newspapers were brought in, one for each person.

The size of the newspaper was familiar to later generations Li Jiyang, because the emperor and empress got married, the outermost part of the newspaper was a red envelope.

"Emperor Empress's Great Wedding" is written on it in golden ink.

The red first page of the newspaper exudes a faint fragrance of ink, and it reports the grand wedding of the emperor and empress in a large space, accompanied by simple engraved calligraphy and paintings.

From Li Jiyang's point of view, this is already very simple, but from the point of view of Daqin people, it is very pleasant surprise!

Many people are not in Xianyang City. Although they know about the grand marriage of the emperor and empress, they don't know the specific situation. Now that there are newspapers, take a look. If you can't read, let your children read the newspapers.

Of course the most eye-catching thing is the wedding of the empress, besides that, there are various advertisements|That's right!

Li Jiyang believes that newspapers do not make money, but the advertisements in newspapers make money!

But this first crab was eaten by no one!

His Dafeng Harvest Grain Store doesn't need an advertisement, and he doesn't want to be taken advantage of.

So, he approached Yingzheng. The various shops under Yingzheng's banner are much older, but they all deal in new things. They used to be crystal salt, but they are actually large grains of salt. It's just that Li Jiyang is good at making it, and people call it crystal. Salt.

Salt and tea cannot be bought or sold in private, as this belongs to the emperor.

But sugar is different!

These things are everywhere now, and they can be sold cheaply when they are made into candies, and because of the variety of cooking techniques, various restaurants, inns, and prostitution restaurants can be found everywhere.

Yingzheng's candy shop has both wholesale and retail, and bought the largest advertising space!

Of course, there are also private properties of each family. For example, the Han family has two large restaurants that specialize in authentic Korean food; the restaurant in Li Mu's family serves the food of Zhao.

Every family had them, so Li Jiyang pulled them to sponsor and asked for advertising fees. There were not many people who were the first to eat crabs. Most of them advertised for Qin Anjun's face and gave a little advertising fee.

I didn't think there would be any rewards, but as soon as the newspaper appeared, their shop was instantly known by people all over the world!

I don't know who is so superstitious, or respect the emperor?

Since then, it has become a tradition in the newspaper industry to have a red envelope on the first page of any new newspaper.

On the second day after the newspaper was published, the relevant laws were promulgated.

This was a gift from Han Fei to Ying Zheng and Li Jiyang.

"Okay, well done!" Ying Zheng saw all the praises from above, and said that the two of them were a match made in heaven.

Most importantly, it is said that this newspaper is distributed nationwide!

"If there are any government orders in the future, you can also post here. Adults don't know how to read, but children know it. They will know it as soon as they read it." Li Jiyang said empty teeth. Of course, it is better to let Ying Zheng see the real thing. persuasive.

"Okay, if there are any government orders in the future, they will be published in the newspapers, and the official residence newspapers will also be run, but the residence newspapers must be consistent with the news in the newspapers." Yingzheng is happy. In this way, if he wants to be tax-free, Let's see who dares to become the king of the earth relying on the corners of the land under his jurisdiction.

Because some people take advantage of the remoteness of the place and think of being a dominance in the local area. Even though the imperial court has exempted tax, he dares to collect it in private. There are such people.

Ying Zheng dealt with it a little, which shocked many people. Now that it is gone, it doesn't mean it won't be there in the future.

What if?

With newspapers, the people can know more things, let them know that Qin is rich and prosperous.

The empress dowagers of the two palaces looked at the folk customs, which came according to the time of day. This time was October, the folks had finished the autumn harvest, the tax and food had been paid, and the autumn vegetables that should be pickled were all pickled. Now it was the slack season.

There are not a few people who get married in different places, and the customs are different in different places. For example, the bride in the Northland has to go over the brazier, which means that the days to come will be prosperous.

On the other hand, brides in the south will cook a meal for the whole family on the second day of their marriage, regardless of whether they are rich or noble, or ordinary civilians, it's all the same!

Now it's fun, and some brides burn their clothes over the brazier!

Or when a noble girl is getting married, the first meal is so muddled that she almost ordered the kitchen!

What's more, the noble girl's cooking looks good, and it's completely unbearable!

I heard that some people had diarrhea after eating and didn't get out of bed for several days!

The empress dowagers of the two palaces laughed straight at it!

Zhao Ji, on the other hand, looked more at the family's shortcomings, and what I'm talking about here is what happened in some villages around Xianyang City.

On this first edition, of course it was Lijiazhuang.

It’s hard to say that this place is outstanding, but it’s very lively. Some retired old soldiers settled here. It is said that one day a thief from other places came to visit a spot near Xianyang City. I don’t know the situation inside. rich huh?So at night, I was going to go in and spend some money.

But when he went in, he was discovered by the old soldiers. The old people were soft-hearted and wanted to give him a chance to reform. Who knew that this guy would not go to someone else's house, but broke into the yard of an old guy. Let's go to the head of the army, he is getting old, although he lives alone, but his two sons' homes are on the left and right.

The old man Tou Bing has no other hobbies, he just likes to keep some cats and dogs.

As a result, after this guy went in, his thigh was bitten by a dog, and his face was scratched by a cat, not to mention how miserable it was!

In the end, he was arrested by the yamen...

Because he was too miserable, the yamen didn't dare to interrogate him, so he was locked up first, and a doctor was called to see his wounds...
