Chapter 1124 New Year's Taste!
As the New Year approaches, the New Year atmosphere in the capital becomes more and more grand. On the streets of Chang'an City, people purchasing New Year goods can be seen everywhere. The price of pork in the east and west cities has quietly increased. Although this thing is considered cheap by wealthy people,
Meat, however, is a supreme delicacy for the poor. What’s more, this year Zuixianlou has developed several new foods that are all related to pork. Folk cooking methods for pork are becoming more and more diverse, but they are not as good as Zuixianlou’s.
Just eat it, but even so, the pork dishes nowadays are still many times more delicious than before!
Therefore, whether they are rich or poor, as the New Year is approaching, they will stock up on pork at home. As a result, the demand for pork in Chang'an City will naturally increase sharply, and it is difficult to prevent the price of pork from rising!
However, based on the past experience of "Chang'an cloth prices skyrocketed and cloth dealers were arrested", pork vendors did not dare to go too far. Overall, pork prices are still within control!
In addition to pork, the sales of other commodities are also booming, such as cloth, silk, jade Buddha, porcelain, etc. Various small items for children are also full of streets and alleys, and merchants are also hoping to take advantage of them.
Make big bucks at this annual festival.
Although Yunshan is far away from the bustling place, you can still feel the flavor of the New Year.
Li Gang had two sons. The eldest son was named Li Shaozhi, leaving behind Li Anren, who died a few years ago. The younger son Li Liyan had been working as an official in other places and returned to Chang'an two days ago.
The old man has lived in Yunshan for a long time and has become accustomed to the elegant environment here. He insists on celebrating the New Year here in Yunshan. Li Liyan is not with his father all year round. Naturally, he has to stay in front of Li Gang during the New Year to fulfill his filial piety, so he also brought him with him.
Came to Yunshan with my wife and a bunch of servants.
The couple stayed in Yunshan Courtyard for two days, and they were reluctant to go back, because the house and furniture in the Courtyard were so comfortable to live in!
As the New Year is approaching, Li Liyan's wife also starts to arrange for the servants to buy New Year's goods. She and Li Liyan respect Li Zexuan, the owner of Yunshan, so when buying New Year's goods, they often come over and ask Li Zexuan or Han Yuxi if they want to help.
What, Han Yuxi sometimes goes to Chang'an Nuantang Foundation, and often takes Li Liyan's wife in a carriage.
After going back and forth, the two families quickly became familiar with each other, almost like neighbors.
Yan Lide has been coming to Yunshan much more frequently recently. In a few days, the court officials will have a rare seven-day "annual leave". Yan Lide also plans to bring his family to Yunshan to celebrate the New Year. This man is quite old.
I like the quietness.
So here in Yunshan, the Yan family's courtyard is also decorated with lanterns and colors to welcome the New Year.
As for Sun Simiao, this veteran has always been a loner. He has no concept of celebrating the New Year, but he has a good apprentice!
After Hu Jingran invited Sun Simiao to come home to celebrate the New Year but to no avail, he asked Hu Hanyun to go to Yunshan to buy new year goods for his master. Naturally, Old Hu agreed wholeheartedly. Even Liu Yue'e, who had always been relatively "stingy", became more generous at this time and bought the goods at home.
Hu Hanyun was asked to carry pork and fish to Yunshan Mountain for free.
The two siblings, Hu Jingran and Hu Guoran, helped Sun Simiao tidy up the inside and outside of the hospital after completing the daily free clinic. The two claimed that they would go to Yunshan during the Chinese New Year to spend the New Year with Sun Simiao. As for the surrounding areas.
Free clinics in other counties will definitely be suspended in the next few days and will not be resumed until after the new year.
Yan Silu returned to Chang'an after the holiday. He still had a large family in Chang'an. Wang Ji didn't want to go to his brother's house, so he lived in the academy, bragging and drinking wine with the bearded guests all day long.
It's quite relaxing.
Ma Zhou rents a house in Chang'an City, so he doesn't have nowhere to go, but recently he has spent more time in the editorial office of "Datang Daily".
Mo Huai and Mo Lingwei went down the mountain to their mansion in Meicun, which was the home of Liu Shiren and his son. As for the other members of the Mo family, the "civilian staff" went back to their respective homes in Meicun, and the "military staff"
I continue to guard the academy, because there are many "scientific research secrets" in Yanhuang Academy. If someone steals them, the loss will be huge!
In fact, people like Ma Zhou, Wang Ji, Yan Silu, and Mo Huai are very likely to be rated as professors in the college's teacher title evaluation early next year. By then, they will naturally have a cloud that everyone envies.
The mountain is a "modern" villa.
Li Zexuan is not short of money, nor is he short of other hospitals. He is short of talents! If there are 10,000 Ma Zhou and talents like Wang Ji, he dares to ask for them all. Isn't it just "one apartment" per person? In Li Zexuan's opinion, it is just a small amount of money.
!
However, his approach makes him truly a super wealthy boss in modern times! Even the richest man in the country would not dare to play like this.
"Feiji! Go and ask Mr. Li Gang to come over. Just say that I have warmed a pot of good wine and invite the old gentleman to taste it!"
Li Zexuan saw that the house was decorated with lights and decorations, but he always felt that something was missing. Suddenly, he rolled his eyes, thought of something, and ordered.
"Yes! Mr. Hou!"
Pangfeiji immediately took the order and left.
Two quarters of an hour later, Li Gang's laughing voice came from outside, "You must be lying to me, saying that you have warmed a pot of good wine? Haha! Are you afraid that you have something to do with me?"
Before anyone arrives, the sound comes first.
Although Li Gang was over eighty years old, his voice was still full of energy. As soon as he finished speaking, the old gentleman had already arrived in front of the door. Li Zexuan quickly stood up and said: "What did the old gentleman say? Look, isn't this the stove on the stove?"
Have you warmed a pot of good wine?"
"Oh~! It's true! This smell doesn't sound like Wenwen Township, nor does it sound like a fairy drunk. Why does it still smell like medicinal herbs?"
Li Gang sniffed it gently, his face suddenly full of doubts.
Li Zexuan stretched out his hand with a smile and said: "This is a medicinal wine recipe that the boy brought back from Taoist Sun last month. Drinking it can strengthen bones and muscles, replenish qi and blood, and the method of brewing the medicinal wine is also quite unique, resulting in this
The taste of medicinal wine is also unique, Mr. Li, would you like to try it?"
This was not just nonsense, the recipe for the medicinal wine was real, and it was originally meant for his father to drink. However, Li Jingmo felt that his body was still strong and there was no need to drink it, so he stopped drinking it after drinking it a few times.
Nowadays, it would be good to give it to Li Gang to drink.
The old man's hematopoietic capacity is insufficient at this age, and his muscles and bones are seriously aging, so he needs this kind of nourishment!
"Haha! Chief Shan, you boast that this medicinal wine is the only one in the sky and unique on earth. How can I not give it a try?"
Li Gang sat down, stroking his beard and smiling. Suddenly, he changed the topic and said: "But Chief, you should first tell me what you want me to do. Otherwise, I won't feel comfortable drinking this wine!"
"Well...."
Li Zexuan's old face, but a small face, suddenly became stiff.
