I Open a General Store in Early Tang

Zhuang Zhou, unemployed at home, unexpectedly obtained a time-space gate that could travel to the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan era, and could also carry items with him. Thus, Zhuang Zhou embarked on...

Chapter 337 I celebrated the New Year in Chang'an!!!

Zhuang Mansion.

Zhuang Zhouzheng teaches people in the temple how to make grilled lamb skewers.

It is said that there were also grilled lamb kebabs in this era.

It’s just that there aren’t as many seasonings as in later generations.

It's simply salt.

Many families with better financial conditions can even get some pepper.

But this thing is a luxury.

I just have to say that the mutton of this era is really good.

The meat is fresh and tasty, and it is delicious even with just the addition of salt.

But for Zhuang Zhou, seasonings were extremely easy to get.

Busy.

Niu Dali came in and reported:

"Boss Zhuang, is there someone looking for you outside?"

"Oh, who is it?"

"It looks like someone from the palace, he pooped a lot."

This is a bit surprising!

Zhuang Zhou had no choice but to go out and see.

Sure enough, I saw that it was an angel from the palace.

The so-called angels are envoys sent by the emperor.

That is, an official who specifically represents the emperor and is responsible for announcing imperial decrees and granting titles to external parties.

After the ceremony, Doctor Sifeng took out the imperial edict and began to read it:

"Disciple: Zhuang Zhou, a man from Chang'an County, serves his country with all his heart, not for personal gain... His loyalty and talent are truly a national treasure of the Tang Dynasty...

I commend his loyalty to the country and have issued an imperial decree to confer the title of founding county earl on Zhuang Zhou in recognition of his outstanding contributions.

I hope that Zhuang Zhou will continue to uphold the spirit of loyalty and diligence and make greater contributions to the court and the people.

This decree has been issued and everyone should obey it.

So ordered! "

Zhuang Zhou wanted to laugh when he heard this. He had become a national treasure of the Tang Dynasty!

Moreover, Li Er promoted himself to a higher rank!

He was promoted from a county baron to a county earl.

Then, there are various rewards.

Good job!

This time, it filled five large carriages.

Zhuang Zhou's heart moved slightly, this Li Er is very powerful!

Moreover, it is also very visible.

Li Er is indeed a wise ruler.

I just offered the method of making cement, and they responded so quickly.

We also attach so much importance to the development and utilization of cement.

It seems that the emperor's foresight is indeed extraordinary.

Zhuang Zhou respectfully accepted the imperial edict and said to Doctor Sifeng:

"Thank you Angel for making this trip. I will definitely live up to the Emperor's grace and keep working hard!"

After saying that, he stuffed a piece of gold cake into his hand.

Doctor Si Feng took it secretly, smiled slightly and said:

"County Master Zhuang is too modest. Your talents and contributions are clearly seen by His Majesty.

This promotion is just the beginning.

You will surely achieve greater things in the future."

Zhuang Zhou didn't think much about it, but said respectfully:

"Thank you for the good words, angel. I will do my best to serve the court!"

They are just polite remarks for the occasion.

Zhuang Zhou now speaks of it without blushing or getting nervous, and is quite proficient at it.

After seeing off Doctor Si Feng, Zhuang Zhou asked Niu Dali to move all the rewards into the backyard.

Two rooms were specially found to store them.

Zhuang Zhou was not in a hurry to count them now, he just made a symbolic check.

Wait until after dinner and then take a closer look.

Anyway, it seems that I should be able to make a lot of money this time.

Back to the backyard.

Hongyu and others had already known that it was the emperor who sent people to reward them.

At this time, everyone was overjoyed.

The head of the family has been promoted to county earl.

That's the Earl.

Next comes the Marquis and the Duke.

Among the five ranks of nobility, namely duke, marquis, earl, viscount and baron, Zhuang Zhou is already a third-rank noble.

I can’t even imagine it!

Even Xiangxiang, Lanlan, Xixi, Qiaoqiao and others were secretly amazed.

The family head's promotion is too fast!

The key is that he is still so young.

The future is limitless!

I couldn't help but change my eyes when I looked at Zhuang Zhou.

There was endless desire in those eyes.

They were just maids in the mansion.

If the master of the house likes them, he will let them serve him.

Thinking about the future, I have to work harder.

The four girls began to think about their next plan.

As long as you serve the master of the house well, it will be possible to escape from slavery in the future.

There is even a chance to become the master's concubine, which would completely change your destiny!

The thought of being the master's concubine and serving him day and night makes me feel happy.

That's a dream come true!

certainly!

This is just a little thought of a little woman.

After all.

Who doesn’t want to have a strong man to rely on!

Especially when the head of the family is so handsome and caring.

Of course Zhuang Zhou didn't know what the four girls were thinking.

Soon, lunch was ready.

Everyone, let’s start eating and drinking.

The dining system adopted in this era was separate dining.

The delicious dishes were served one after another, and everyone took what they wanted.

This also made Zhuang Zhou very satisfied.

My mouth was full of oil.

The main thing is that the grilled lamb skewers cannot be all lean, some fat must be added in between.

It sizzles with oil when baked and is fragrant when chewed.

also.

There were chairs in the early Tang Dynasty.

It's just a Hu stool.

Most people in this era sat on the floor, and the emperor and his ministers also sat and discussed matters when they went to court.

However, the noble families and wealthy families also sat on Hu stools.

There were no armchairs with backrests in the early Tang Dynasty, and they only appeared at the end of the Tang Dynasty.

It was then popularized during the Song Dynasty.

But now Zhuang Zhou has come and disrupted the course of history.

Many things naturally appeared in advance.

High table and low stools.

With everyone sitting around the table to eat, it is much more lively than before.

And in this way, there will no longer be so much distinction between superiors and inferiors.
