Chapter 43: On the Street

After lunch, Li Xingzhi took a stroll in the yard again. He walked along the corridor to the backyard and saw the mess by the lake, which made him a little depressed.

There have been a lot of things lately, but I still need to find some time to clean them up.

I walked around again. The house Li Xingzhi bought was very big, but there were no people in the Li family, so there were empty houses everywhere. Even if there were servants cleaning it from time to time, they couldn't hide the decayed and rundown atmosphere. Li Mansion

The mansion is really desolate and a bit lonely.

However, in early spring, it was hard to hear the sound of birds, and it felt even more lonely in this vast backyard.

There are quite a few animals in the house, but Rhubarb, Diandian and the two snakes don't move very much. Rhubarb and Diandian are still guarding the front and back doors. As for the playful little mouse, apart from coming out every morning to check in,

Most of the time, he was nowhere to be seen. Even if he was seen, he was definitely playing with Erlang.

Li Xingzhi planned to go to the city in the afternoon to see what flowers, plants and animals he could buy to add some life to his yard. Especially his small yard, he always felt that something was missing.

However, before that, he still had to take a look at the cave and add something to it. He couldn't just leave it deserted, or it would be struck by lightning!

Li Xingzhi returned to the room and closed the door. When his thoughts moved, he disappeared from the room.

He stood in a small empty space and took a deep breath. Although there were no plants planted here, he felt that the air was much better than outside.

At this time, the little golden snake surrounding him twisted around, drew a thin golden line in the air, and fell straight into the spring. The last time he came in, Li Xingzhi didn't notice the little golden snake.

trend.

He glanced at the spring, and his heart moved. The thing that made She Da fancy it and couldn't wait for it was definitely not a mortal thing. He had a vague feeling when he drank the spring water last time, but he didn't study it in detail.

Li Xingzhi's heart moved, and a peach core appeared in his hand.

This peach core is larger than the ordinary ones, but Li Xingzhi carefully selected it from the system. According to the system, it is a peach core left behind by the best flat peach that White Ape gave to Zhang Wuji.

He walked to the edge of the spring less than half a meter away, dug a small hole, planted the walnuts, scooped out a few spoonfuls of water, and watered the ground thoroughly before giving up.

Li Xingzhi didn't know whether this peach core could sprout or grow into a big peach tree. However, he had great expectations for this space, which was known as "god-level" in the game.

He planted peach trees for the first time, and planted them next to the spring. The main reason was that Li Xingzhi especially liked to eat peaches. He even ate very large peaches when he was a child! However, they were very expensive at that time. Later, when he grew up,

However, there are no peaches that taste as delicious anymore. Even though they are as big as the peaches I originally ate, most of them have no taste and are very hard. It is said that this strange peach was created to facilitate transportation.

Peaches; there were also some large peaches called peaches, which were not very good-looking. Five or six of them were packed in gift boxes, which cost hundreds of dollars, but Li Xingzhi was not willing to buy them.

Then, Li Xingzhi planted some tree species such as plums, pears, apricots, and bananas, as well as corn, sweet potatoes, and other crops that were not available in the Tang Dynasty. Whether they were temperate or tropical plants, Li Xingzhi planted some of them.

, there are not many varieties, but there are quite a few in this small space. He planted some more strawberries under the tree.

Li Xingzhi thought for a moment, then simply set aside a small area of ​​only a few square meters and planted some medicinal materials such as ginseng, snow lotus, and saffron.

Regardless of whether they could survive or not, he planted some as a test.

He called for water one by one, and when he got up, he looked up and saw that the space was full of vitality, with red flowers and green trees, and everything was booming!…

Li Xingzhi returned to the room, asked his servant to get a large bucket of hot water, took a nice bath, and then left the room.

He passed by the study room and heard the sound of reading loudly. He saw Erlang studying seriously and did not disturb him.

Li Xingzhi called a few servants and went straight to the city to the east.

In early spring, the roads are lined with elms and willows, and the pedestrians in the road are bustling. Flags are flying in the shops next to it. It’s so lively!

Not long after entering the market, Li Xingzhi heard the familiar sound of bang bang. Seeing the heat rising in that place, which was more lively than the nearby places, he knew that Big Beard Wei was busy, so he didn't bother him and went straight to

Walk inside.

Li Xingzhi looked here and there. Although it was no longer common in the Tang Dynasty, he had only been to this city a few times, and it was still quite novel. Occasionally there were a few swordsmen, gunsmiths or jugglers nearby, and he

Everyone should go over and take a look, and give a few rewards along the way.

Going inside, there were more and more things, many of which were novelties that Li Xingzhi had never thought of. He straight up sighed at the creativity of the ancients and the decline of civilization in later generations.

Li Xingzhi walked into a gold shop with some curiosity.

The shop was not big, and there were two big men looking at the door. When Li Xingzhi came, he was probably the security guards of later generations. There was no one inside, so he walked around and saw more of the dazzling and exquisite jewelry of later generations.

He didn't take much notice of this, so he waved his hand to the old shopkeeper who was about to come over to take care of him, and prepared to go out.

Suddenly, he glanced and saw a green vial.

Li Xingzhi walked over and took a closer look. If he saw it correctly, it was made of glass. Although the workmanship was still a bit rough, the technology was pretty good. The bottle was even, smooth and translucent.

He still wanted to touch it with his hand, but was blocked by a big hand stretched out from the side. At this time, the old shopkeeper came out from behind and introduced to Li Xingzhi: "This is the medicinal jade bottle flowing out of the palace.

Although it is not very valuable, it is the treasure of our store and will not be sold to outsiders! It is said that this medicinal jade bottle can gather wealth and vitality and maintain health, but it is rare. If I go to Chang'an, I will get one.

It's not that difficult!" As he said this, he held his beard in his hands, feeling very proud of himself.

After hearing this, Li Xingzhi shook his head in his heart. The methods of making glass in later generations were all passed down from the West, but he had rarely heard of glass in ancient China.

"The boy is just curious, thank the shopkeeper." After saying that, he took the slave and walked out.

After walking a few more steps, the crowd became smaller, and most of them were dressed as literati, wearing silks and satins, followed by a few servants, and there were some flowers and bonsais for sale on both sides.

Li Xingzhi took a look and saw that there were many common chrysanthemums, azaleas, Luoyang peonies, and deep valley orchids, especially hibiscus, which were red, yellow, white, and colorful. Only then did he remember that this was originally the country of hibiscus.

As he walked around and looked around, he was a little dazzled. This place was no worse than those flower and bird markets in later generations. In terms of the unique varieties, it was even more dazzling. Maybe a random orchid would be worth tens of thousands in later generations.

of.

I looked around briefly, and finally picked out some flower seedlings, a few golden osmanthus trees, and several kinds of small-leaf lotus I saw, and planned to go home and raise them myself.

He took a few steps, but found that the crowing of chickens and dogs was very lively, and there were all kinds of people selling chickens, dogs, cattle and sheep, snakes, insects, birds and fish.

Li Xingzhi went shopping for a few times and bought dozens of chickens, ducks and geese. Chickens and ducks can be raised and eaten by himself. Geese, although more people ate them in the Tang Dynasty, for Li Xingzhi, a person from later generations, he just raised them.

After taking care of the house, he happily bought a pair of little starlings, which were pretty good.

Fortunately, he brought several slaves with him, otherwise he would not know how to bring these things back...

Suddenly, he found that there was a lot of people on the other side of the street. Everyone was blushing and shouting, not knowing what they were doing. Li Xingzhi also stretched his head to take a look, only to find that two big roosters were stretched out.

The hair on the neck was suddenly raised, the tail was long and curled, the body was stained with blood, the feathers were a little messy, and one chicken even had half of its comb missing.

The two chickens may have been stimulated by the crowd's shouts. They pushed their claws to the ground and pierced each other's heads with their sharp beaks. For a moment, the chicken feathers were flying and their bodies were stained with blood, causing everyone to shout in unison.

Others sighed and became dejected, perhaps because a certain chicken fell behind.

Li Xingzhi frowned when he saw such a fierce and bloody scene. He didn't like this kind of game where his life was put on the line, but he wouldn't stop others from having fun. He was not a chicken, so how could he know the happiness of a chicken?

Woolen cloth?

Seeing that the servants behind him could hardly hold the things they were carrying, Li Xingzhi was about to walk back when he saw many people pointing at something and looked over curiously.

But he found that in a bamboo basket, there was an eagle with tied claws, sharp beak, and somewhat sickly wings. The eagle was quite large, more than two feet long from head to tail, but it was a rare big bird in the south. Li Xingzhi

In addition to the experience of more than 30 years in the previous life, I have never seen such a big bird. Of course, the ones seen on TV do not count.

Although the bird is big, even if it is tied up, from the unyielding eagle eyes and under the slightly spread wings, you can still see its heroic figure striking the sky!

Most people stood by and looked at the novelty. Firstly, the price was not low, and secondly, there were not many falconry trainings in the south, so the powerful people looked down upon some sickly eagles.

Only the old man selling hawks sat aside without saying a word. There were many other birds in front of his stall.
