Chapter 39 Prince's Wonderful Sound
Chapter 39: The Prince Miaoyin
The chef who led the lead took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Chen Wanrong. Chen Wanrong took it and saw that it was a piece of flower paper with a texture like water mark and a shiny luster. It is a top-notch paper. It is produced in Sichuan and is elegantly called "fish roe paper". It is loved by scholars and poets.
The letters as big as walnuts are written on the paper, "Brother Wanrong is a friend: I met in the pavilion to comfort my life, but I was not comfortable for a long time when I was in trouble. It's a pity! The original snack has a unique flavor. Please give me a taste of it! Dou Jidu! "The font is flying and the phoenix dances, and the pen is strong, which is not bad at all compared to Wu Jing's hand.
"Brother, who gave me something?" Chen Zairong blinked and asked on behalf of everyone.
Chen Wanrong smiled and handed him the paper, saying, "Who else can be there? Of course it's Dou Ji. I guess he came to the bottom of the earth and saw a snack seller, so he asked someone to deliver it to us. I was afraid that I would be more suspicious, so I wrote a special note."
"So it's him. Why is he arrogant at first and respectful at the same time? With Brother Chen here, it's impossible to make Dou Ji not convinced!" Gao Jian was extremely excited and exclaimed.
Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Brother Gao, don't praise others. In comparison, Miss Zheng's knowledge may not be inferior to him."
"Brother Chen, don't praise others. How can I learn from me?" Zheng Qing was a little angry.
The chef took out the food and placed it on it. Dou Ji was really generous. Chang'an snacks were almost all: cakes, naan, pastries, miscellaneous rice, roasted rice, meat dishes, dried rice, etc., and there were a few pots of fine wine. There were no snacks, which could be called a sumptuous banquet.
After the chef was ready, Chen Wanrong gave a consistent tip according to the rules and sent them away. Zheng Wanru looked at the pile of food in the mountains and couldn't believe that it was given by the arrogant Dou Ji just now. She swallowed her saliva and asked, "Mr. Chen, will Dou Ji harm us? Have you poisoned me?"
This question is not sensitive, it is very sensitive. Gao Jian was also a little surprised and couldn't make up his mind. Zheng Qing smiled slightly and analyzed: "Don't be suspicious, Dou Ji will not release poison."
"Sister, how do you know that he won't harm us?" Zheng Wanru didn't believe it deeply.
Zheng Qing pursed her lips and gave him a blank look: "You have to think about it yourself. Isn't Brother Chen Jizhu holding it?"
Chen Wanrong lifted up the pot to sift the wine. When young people were together, they always made people happy and were in a good mood. They joked: "Don't eat it, it's poisonous." They picked up the wine glass, drank it all, picked up a piece of stew, and ate it on their own.
Zheng Wanru looked at his image and wanted to pry open his mouth, stomp his feet, and urged him: "Mr. Chen, tell me the whole story."
"Dou Ji will not poison it, it is obvious that he will not harm us." Chen Wanrong teased them and then revealed the whole story: "First, he is the superior, we are ordinary people, and you two students in the Imperial College. In his eyes, they are just a rank of sesame and mung beans. How can he get into his eyes? We have no grudges with him in the past and no grudges recently, why would he harm us?"
Gao Jian pondered, "But, didn't he impress Brother Chen just now?"
"He is open-minded and not the kind of person who holds grudges." Chen Wanrong then analyzed: "Besides, he really wants to harm us. He doesn't have to pay for food and drinks, and sending a few official servants. With his power, in just one sentence, ten or eight official servants have already arrived."
Zheng Wanru frowned and said, "What if Dou Jigu is so embarrassed that he can use this kind of insult to damage his face?"
"He won't!" Chen Zairong took the conversation and analyzed: "Isn't poisoning us here to tell people that he did it?" This is a tourist destination, and there are so many people in the past. It is more convenient to send a few officials to poison people here.
Zheng Wanru and Gao Jian were speechless immediately. Zheng Qing reminded Zheng Wanru: "Brother, don't ask anything in the future, think about it yourself. Brother Chen and little brother Chen can think of it, you just don't think about it."
"I understand, sister!" Zheng Wan had no choice but to accept the order.
Gao Jian felt a little embarrassed: "I'm suspicious, thank you brother Chen for telling me the whole story." He grabbed the chopsticks and started eating and drinking.
They can't blame them all for this. Dou Ji's contrast between the two sides was extremely strong, which made people worry. As soon as the suspicion was gone, everyone was no longer restrained. They ate and drank, and said some interesting things, and laughed loudly when they were happy. They did not get off the land until they were over, got on the carriage and went back to their own places.
The next day, Chen Wanrong wanted to visit Wu Jing. Considering that today is the day to go to court, he was in court and could not see anyone after going there. It would be better to wait until the evening. If you have nothing to do, it would be better to go to the two stores in Gaoma to check out the sales of soap, and leave Zheng Qing and his daughter for a while, and go straight to the Qujiang Ma store with Chen Zairong.
Zheng Qing wanted to come with her, but she just wanted to help her mother clear the bill, so she had to miss this opportunity.
Although today is not a holiday, there are still people coming and going by the Qujiang River. When the heat will squirt on the necks of pedestrians. This is a revisiting place in the old place, and it is not a problem to come to Majiadian.
In other places, there are not many people who know Chen Wanrong, but not those who don’t know Chen Wanrong in Majiadian. He is a famous person here. On March 3rd, from Mashangkee to the friend, they have seen Chen Wanrong’s brilliant sales art, especially washing the soap and washing the beggar’s clothes, which made them talk about.
"Mr. Chen, are you here? Please come in!" Before Chen Wanrong could speak, the two men enthusiastically welcomed Chen Wanrong and his brothers in.
Chen Wanrong stepped into the store and asked, "I'll find out what the soap is selling?"
"Mr. Chen, do you need to ask? Of course, it's so good that it can't be better." The guy replied and led Chen Wanrong to Ma Zhizhong's house: "Mr. Chen, the shopkeeper is in the house, please follow me."
Thank you, Chen Wanrong followed him. The door of Ma Zhizhong's room was still half-closed, and the guy knocked on the door: "Shopkeeper, Mr. Chen is here to visit."
"Which Mr. Chen?" Ma Zhizhong's lazy voice came from the room, listless.
The guy hurriedly replied: "Who else can be there? Of course, it's Mr. Chen, who sells soap."
"Brother Chen! Why don't you explain it clearly? You don't know what you said, be careful I'll deduct your wages!" Ma Zhizhong's voice suddenly increased a lot, and he was filled with joy. The door creaked and came out of the room. Without saying a word, he grabbed Chen Wanrong's hand and pulled it into the room: "Brother Chen, you are really here, you came quietly, and you won't say a word to your elder brother, brother can go and greet you."
The guy let the two brothers into the house, covered the door, and stepped back.
Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Brother Ma, I am not a big shot, so what else do you want to greet me? You are too disgusting."
"Okay, okay! I'm out of here!" Ma Zhizhong hurriedly asked the two to sit down, served tea, sat down with a smile, and looked at Chen Wanrong for a moment.
When I remembered that I first entered this room, Ma Zhizhong ignored me, but when I came back today, I was so enthusiastic and regarded it as a guest of honor, as intimate as my relatives. Things in the world are really unpredictable!
After drinking a sip of tea, Chen Wanrong didn't go around the circle and asked directly about the soap: "Brother Ma, how is the soap selling?"
"Brother Chen, you have caused me a lot!" Ma Zhizhong cried out loud.
I heard from the guy that the soap sold well, why did it hurt people again? Although Chen Wanrong saw the situation, he couldn't help but be confused and asked in a daze, "Brother Ma, where do you start this? Is there any problem?"
"Brother Chen, don't be anxious, there is no problem." Ma Zhizhong also found a grammatical problem and hurriedly explained: "The problem is that the soap is so good, it's so easy to sell. The batch of goods I brought back to Chang'an was already sold out. As soon as the news that we started supplying soap came out, those who bought soap were like green-headed flies pounced on rotten eggs, and they all rushed over and bought them all."
Isn't it good? Ma Zhizhong was not happy at all, and his face looked puzzled: "Some people even come to ask about soap every day. Some people ran to me more often, so they found me, threw down the money, and said they were booked, and they had to keep it for him when they arrived. These people are powerful and powerful, and some are important officials in the court. Can I not take it? Brother, where is the soap?" He stretched out his hands and complained to Chen Wanrong, looking pitiful.
Looking at his miserable appearance, Chen Wanrong couldn't bear to see it and comforted him with a smile: "Brother Ma, you can rest assured."
"Brother, when will you give it to me? I'm waiting to ask." Ma Zhizhong quickly asked.
Chen Wanrong asked, "How is the situation with Manager Gao?"
"Look at me and I will know him." Ma Zhizhong said a little unhappy: "Brother Chen, we have to agree that you have to send less goods to Lao Gao. You must be satisfied with me. Brother, what kind of friendship do we have? Are we a little better than Lao Gao?"
In order to get more soap, he was actually slutty. If Chen Wanrong hadn't met him in person, Ma Zhizhong, who really didn't believe in the glory in front of others, had a side that could not be on the table. He smiled and said, "Brother Ma, please be relieved. When I go back, I will hire some people and do more. Just do your best."
The soap has been sold out and it is impossible not to expand production. This is the best way to solve the problem.
As a result, Ma Zhizhong was satisfied and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, this is quite interesting. With your words, I will let go of the job."
Just now, he looked bitter and revenge, and he laughed as usual in the blink of an eye. His face became so fast that Chen Wanrong couldn't help but smile.
"Brother Chen, you are rare to come here. Today, my brother will accompany you around." Ma Zhizhong was in a good mood and said in a deep thought: "I believe that my brother has already experienced the scenery in the city. There are still many good places outside the city."
Anyway, it's okay, so it's good to go and see the scenery. It's just that Chen Wanrong is really embarrassed: "Brother Ma is busy, how dare you work for you?"
Ma Zhizhong laughed and said, "Brother, I'm busy with those who want soaps these days, and I'm very tired. I've long wanted to go out and relax. With such good friends as brothers, I will be happy both physically and mentally. Brothers, this matter is settled. Let's go and pull Lao Gao and go out for a walk together."
He and Gao Qingtai have always been incompatible with each other, and they actually got so close. Chen Wanrong really couldn't imagine that and smiled and said, "Listen to my brother."
Ma Zhizhong was smart, knowing what Chen Wanrong was thinking, and smiled and said, "Brother, don't laugh at me. In fact, although Lao Gao and I fight, we still understand each other. Soap is your product. If you come, can he not come? Besides, Lao Gao and I have discussed the establishment of a commercial alliance. Several shops have expressed their intention to join. We have not figured out some questions yet and are about to ask you for advice."
It turns out that there is another section about establishing a business alliance. Chen Wanrong just made a suggestion and did not take it seriously. Unexpectedly, they were actually executing it. He smiled and said, "I have a heavy word, I have a heavy word. If I have any opinions, I will know everything and say everything."
Ma Zhizhong asked the guy to prepare the vehicle and took Chen Wanrong and his brothers to Gaojiadian. Gaojiadian is not far from Majiadian, and arrived in a short time. As the largest shop in Chang'an, Gaojiadian is naturally large in scale. The shops in Qujiang alone are not comparable to Majiadian, and are much larger than Majiadian.
The styles of HD Tai and Ma Zhizhong are completely different. Ma Zhizhong can hide in the house and doze off, let the guys doze, and don’t come forward without any big deal. HD Tai is different, and he won’t be idle even if he doesn’t have anything to do. As soon as Chen Wanrong and the others entered the store, they saw HD Tai standing in the corner of the store with their hands behind their backs, looking at the guys working.
Ma Zhizhong took Chen Wanrong and his brothers straight to Gaoqingquan and shouted from afar: "Old Gao!"
Gao Qingtai looked back and smiled and said, "Master Ma, you are here!" He quickly came over and bowed with his fists: "Master Ma, Master Chen, Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen is here, and he is full of glory. Please invite tea in the house." The etiquette is thoughtful and enthusiastic, as if he saw an old friend.
Chen Wanrong and the other two clasped their fists and returned the gift, followed him into the house. Gao Qingtai hurriedly presented fragrant tea to the three of them, and asked directly: "Master Ma, you are not going to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, why are you free to come to me?"
"Do you think I want to come? Your pool is big, and I can't bear it." Ma Zhizhong and he were about to snatch each other's face as soon as they met. Ma Zhizhong said angrily: "Brother Chen is here to learn about the soap today. Can I not bring him here?"
Gao Dean Tai has been thanking him: "Thank you, Mr. Ma, thank you here!"
"Stop giving you those false gifts!" Ma Zhizhong waved his hand and then said, "I have already told Brother Chen about the soap, so you can save some saliva. I think Brother Chen is a rare visit to Chang'an. Should we invite Brother Chen out for a walk? In March, spring is bright, and it is the time for women from the capital to go out to enjoy the spring. The outside of the city is more lively and more spring than in the city."
High-definition Tai praised the high-fives: "It makes sense, it makes sense! The eight waters surround Chang'an are of great reputation, but we have to go to eight places. Let's not talk about the time. This journey alone is tiring enough, so there is no need. Water, the shore of the Wei River is the most lively, but Mr. Chen has to pass by it back and forth. Although the scenery of the Wei River is beautiful, I must have already appreciated it. I will go to see the mountain: Nanshan!"
"The scenery of the South Mountain is the best in the world, and spring is even better. The great man said this very well!" Ma Zhizhong agreed with a light hit on the table.
Once this matter is decided, Gao Qingtai ordered people to prepare wine, food, oil curtain, and then drive out in a carriage. The oil curtain is a must-have item for the Tang people on a trip. When they encounter a beautiful place, they will support the oil curtain and enjoy the scenery. If they are sleepy, they can rest in the oil curtain, and eat, sit and sleep without worrying.
Qujiang is located in the south of Chang'an City, very close to Zhongnan Mountain, and it will take less than a long time to arrive.
The tourism trend in the Tang Dynasty was prevalent, especially in the second half of each month, when traveling in a concentrated manner. Along the way, I saw women from the city in groups of three or five, either riding horses, walking, and looking at each other with their caps and caps. I don’t know how many of them are. On the roadside, tents can be seen from time to time, tourists may sit or lie in front of the tent, and they are leisurely and comfortable, which makes people jealous.
Zhongnan Mountain is a famous mountain in Guanzhong. It has attracted countless tourists and tourists since ancient times. The treasures left behind are incredible. Wang Wei wrote in his poem "Zhongnan Mountain": "The Nanshan Mountain blocks the heaven and earth, the sun and the moon grow on the stones. The peaks leave scenery at night, and the deep valleys are not bright at daytime. People in the mountains are upright, and the roads are dangerous and calm. The long wind drives away pines and cypresses, and the sounds brush the clear valleys. I regret reading here, and I am close to the fame every day."
The poet uses outstanding poetry to gather the majestic and quietness of the Nanshan Mountains at his pen, making people feel a sense of being willing to be an old man in the mountains and not being close to fame.
Chen Wanrong has long heard of the reputation of Zhongnan Mountain. It can be said that it is well-known. From a distance, he saw the majestic figure of Nanshan Mountain. He eagerly hopes to arrive early and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
"Why are there so many people?" Ma Zhizhong's surprised voice rang.
"Stop!" The voice of high-definition Tai came from another car, and the carriage stopped.
Gao Qingtai jumped out of the car, rushed over excitedly, and said excitedly: "Mr. Chen, we won't go to Nanshan for now, we are waiting here to watch the prince perform the Jie drum."
This sentence made people confused. Chen Wanrong was stunned. Before he could speak, Ma Zhizhong followed him with excitement on his face: "Brother Chen, we are so lucky today. We met the prince playing! This is a blessing I have cultivated in my previous life!"
Li Longji had outstanding musical talent, set up the "Liyuan" to expand the teaching house and promote the development of music. His own musical talent has been passed down through the ages. Others always have to think hard about lyrics, but he doesn't need it. "If you make music and lyrics, you will be able to follow the sound, and do not set rules, and you should use the short and length to adjust to the length, and you should all scatter the sound and beat them in the middle." It seems that you have been familiar with it for a long time.
Thousands of years later, when talking about Li Longji's musical talent, he still has to give him a thumbs up. It is extremely rare to be able to listen to him playing. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a blessing he had cultivated in his previous life. Chen Wanrong had no reason to refuse, but how could he come to this wilderness?
Chen Zairong touched Chen Wanrong excitedly: "Brother, look, that's Yuzhen Temple. Yuzhen Temple is preparing to place musical instruments. The prince is really coming. Jinxian and Yuzhen princesses will also show their piano skills. Brother, we are so lucky today!"
