Chapter 13 Luo Zhang's Identity&nbsp Diamond

Looking at the function of Erguotou in the inventory, Luo Zhang couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and smiled bitterly at the same time.

Erguotou is a good product to eliminate worries and break through bottlenecks. It can be used to break through the Qi sensation state. It is only effective for the first time. Drinking more will not help.

"What a loss, what a big loss. What did I think? If I kept this thing and drank it when I broke through the Qi Sense Realm, it would not be 100% possible to break through. No wonder I broke through to open my pulse directly after drinking this bottle.

The second level of the realm.”

It's a pity in my heart, but there is nothing I can do about it, but this thing is not useless. Whether I drink it when I have nothing to do, or sell it, it is a business that will make a profit without losing any money.

After comforting himself, Luo Zhang fell into a deep sleep.

In the imperial study room of the imperial palace, Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty stood in front of a portrait and stared at it for a long time.

"well!"

With a sigh, Li Shimin turned around and looked at Li Junxian in the room: "How is the investigation going? Are you his descendant?"

"I have found out that this person's name is Luo Zhang. He has lived in Luoyang since he was a child and made a living by begging. He came to Chang'an a month ago... Not long ago, he spent one hundred taels in a shop in Dongshi and temporarily lived with

As for whether he is the descendant of that person, I haven't found out yet!" Li Junxian bowed and replied.

"Luo Zhang... Luo Zhang... Luoyang, it's him, it must be him. Check it out for me and make sure to confirm his identity. His father opened up and expanded our territory for the Tang Dynasty and spilled blood on the battlefield. I can't

Let his descendants live on the streets!" Li Shimin ordered loudly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The next morning, Luo Zhang got up early and got busy. As soon as he opened the store door, he saw a lot of commotion and people on the street.

Last night, Luo Zhang thought about it all night. Although Chai Jingtang was afraid that Princess Gaoyang had left temporarily, he knew that this matter was far from over.

As long as he continues to sell barbecue, the threat will exist. Even if he stops selling, Chai Jingtang will not let him go.

Not only Chai Jingtang, but also Fang Jun. Although Fang Jun is not as obvious as Chai Jingtang, the meaning is self-evident.

Coupled with Princess Gaoyang's reasons, Fang Jun already hated himself even if it wasn't for the oysters.

If you want to solve the current predicament, you must either escape from here or obtain a certain official status. Only in this way can these people be afraid of you.

Escape from here was directly rejected by Luo Zhang. Once he was reborn, he would never allow himself to live a useless life. He would either die standing or live on his knees.

It was too difficult to obtain an official position in the Tang Dynasty. Ordinary people, no matter how talented they were, had no access. All access was controlled by aristocratic families. If no one recommended you, they would simply ignore you.

The only way out is to do something earth-shattering to attract the attention of officials, but Luo Zhang has not yet decided what to do.

He also thought about presenting oysters, leeks and other items to the officials, but Luo Zhang was unwilling. If he presented them, how would he sell barbecue in the future? How would he get points?

How many points can you get just by selling ordinary mutton kebabs?

There is a saying in "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" that is right, "If you fish all the water, won't you get something? And next year there will be no fish."

Once he does this, it will be impossible to sell barbecues at sky-high prices in the future. This is the principle when things are rare and valuable. When the time comes, without points and without the help of the system, he will be just a mediocre commoner in the Tang Dynasty.

.

For the time being, Luo Zhang can only take one step at a time.

Not long after the store opened, the owner of the mutton shop delivered a sheep he ordered.

Before Luo Zhang could sort the mutton, the entire East Market was in an uproar, with many people running towards the west.

Luo Zhang vaguely heard someone saying the words "the imperial examination is about to begin", which moved Luo Zhang's heart.

After closing the shop door, he didn't have time to deal with the mutton. He followed the others and headed west to see what was going on.

To the west, at the Dongshikou exit, a royal notice is posted on the notice board.

Luo Zhang finally squeezed in and read the imperial list. The main idea of ​​the imperial list was that the royal family wanted to recruit talented people for various purposes, and specially opened the imperial examination, and the time was set on the eighth day of September.

It is now the third day of August, which means there is still one month left.

Luo Zhang, who is familiar with history, naturally knows a lot about the ancient imperial examinations. Most of the time, the emperor would give a question, and the students would answer the question. The examiner would first conduct the first round of reference and correction, select some of the more capable ones, and then submit them to

The emperor, after consultation, will finally decide who he wants and who he doesn’t want, and who will be the top scholar in the imperial examination.

Squeezing out of the crowd, Luo Zhang walked towards the barbecue restaurant, thinking as he walked.

Although he knew about the imperial examination, his Chinese scores were not good. He could recite a few poems correctly, but it was impossible for him to write a beautiful article.

In other words, he basically had no chance of getting ahead in the imperial examination, and it was completely impossible to get ahead on this path.

In Tai Chi Palace, Li Junxian was standing in the main hall, reporting to Li Shimin what he was investigating.

"Your Majesty, it has been found out that this son is indeed the queen of that man! His father died in the war and he lived on the street and became a beggar. After that..."

"Since I came to Chang'an, I have started a business, selling barbecues like the Nahu people. I heard that their grilled food is very good, and they are quite famous in Dongshi. What's more special is that their grilled food is very good.

It’s actually comparable to some elixirs and can make old men rejuvenate and warriors advance!”

"For this reason, something happened yesterday..."

"That's when Princess Gaoyang discovered that this person and that person were very imaginary, and helped them out!"

After speaking, Li Junxian bowed and stood aside to wait for Li Shimin's instructions.

After hearing what Li Junxian said, Li Shimin sighed slightly and said: "His father is kind to me. During the war, his father died in the battle, and his mother took him with him and disappeared among the rebels. I didn't expect him to be homeless."

Being a beggar on the street is really pitiable."

"Bring him to see me."

"promise!"

...

Dongshi, Datang Barbeque Shop, Luo Zhang just packed up the mutton and walked into the barbecue shop alone.

Luo Zhang looked up and couldn't help but smile and said: "Shopkeeper Wang, my thing didn't disappoint you, did it?"

The visitor was none other than Wang Fugui, the manager of Mingyue Tower. The day before yesterday, Luo Zhang sold him a roasted sheep whip and agreed to give him another five hundred taels of silver if it was useful.

Wang Fugui arrived today. Judging from his smiling face, it was obvious that his stuff was good.

"I'm not disappointed, I'm not disappointed. That thing is so good, so good. I'm here to thank you!"

As he spoke, shopkeeper Wang took out a few small gold cakes from his sleeves and handed them to Luo Zhang: "Here, this is about six hundred taels of silver. The extra one hundred taels will be my thank you gift. You don't know, those things of yours

It helped me a lot, and my wife was full of praise for it!"

"As long as it's useful, by the way, I also have roasted leeks here. Just wait a moment and I'll roast them for you to take away. I promise you to fight three hundred rounds in one night and let your wife beg you for mercy!" Luo Zhang

He took the small gold cake with a smile and said, and at the same time he looked at his money bag. Sure enough, 99% of the money was taken away as soon as he put it in. Luo Zhang was also used to it. If the money is taken away, points will be given.

It's not a loss for him.

"Hahaha, that's a good feeling, I'll just wait for you for a while."

The ingredients had been put away, and Luo Zhang directly put the barbecue grill out, and shouted at the same time, "We sell barbecue, delicious mutton skewers, if it doesn't taste good, we don't have to pay for it!"

"With one piece of Xiongfeng leek, you will become a real man!"

"The best oysters, your strength will increase after eating them!"

“The newly arrived roasted mushrooms can be washed and pith removed after eating them, which will improve your physical condition!”

In fact, there was no need for Luo Zhang to shout at all. Before he left the stall, there were many people waiting at the door of the store to buy Luo Zhang's barbecue.

Whether it is grilled leeks or grilled oysters, they are both rare and good things. For those merchants and government officials, a few hundred taels of silver is nothing. The total of grilled leeks and grilled oysters is only eleven taels.

They can buy ten or eight at will to improve themselves.

While baking something, Luo Zhang observed the points. Seeing the points rising slowly, Luo Zhang couldn't be happier.

But at this moment, the people who had gathered in front of the stall retreated to both sides, and at the same time a shout came from behind, "The King of Wei is here!"

"King Wei?"

Luo Zhang was stunned and looked at the person who came. He saw a young man without a white beard, wearing a purple robe and a purple gold crown, slowly coming over with compliments from someone.

Luo Zhang also knew the person who was complimenting him. It was Chai Jingtang who caused trouble for him yesterday!

"The hatred from Chai Jingtang is worth 1000"
