Chapter 94: The Problem of the Clerk
"Oh oh oh, so that Brother Zhang is really a talented person. He is not only excellent in medicine but also has great literary talent, but also has a good teacher in terms of human nature and worldly affairs."
"Brother Li is polite, hey, by the way, when the girl came in the door just now, I heard the king muttering something, as if he was in the poem "
"Yes, I think it's true when you say it. Why did you say the king think of this?"
"Hey, Brother Zhang, think about it, how is that girl named Yingxue? King Anding has reached age, and has been using this medicinal herb very much recently..."
"No wonder, no wonder..."
"But the King's low fever disease is not good. It can be seen that the positive energy in the body is still insufficient. Deer Antler Snow Lotus is afraid that the medicine is not enough..."
"I also feel that I have some hipster kidneys at home, so why don't I bring them to King Anding next time?"
"A coincidence, I still have half a tiger whip, so why not be filial to King Anding."
In an instant, the atmosphere solidified.
Look at me, let me look at you...
"That sea dog kidney is for my father-in-law who is over 60 years old..."
"Nature, nature, the tiger whip is my filial piety to Azu at the age of 80..."
"I am really filial, and my loyalty is passed down from generation to generation"
"How can I compare to the brother Tai family's poetry and books that have lasted for the generations?"
“Each, each other”
The two wiped their sweat. Although they both wanted to go back to the Imperial Hospital to report, they still tacitly found an excuse to part ways...
...
As a result, after two days of quiet, Li Jingchang was probably stimulated by Li Yu's words "I'm so disappointed."
After not stepping into Anding Palace for two days, Li Yu was also a little worried about whether he was talking too much.
After all, Li Jingchang has always boasted of being a high IQ. He has never been disappointed with others, but has not been the other way around.
"My nephew, today's good luck..."
An annoying voice came from outside the door again...
"Damn it, it seems that I still underestimated the thickness of this person's skin..."
Li Jing walked in casually, then he slapped into the chair, kicked off his shoes, and crossed his legs. "Yingxue, Yingxue, go and pour me a cup of tea for me."
"Yes, the king later..." Yingxue responded and went to get some tea.
"Forget it, forget it, I'm so thirsty that I can't wait. You can get some "an/ye) tea" first." Li Jingchang sat on the chair and pulled the collar of his clothes back and forth with his hands.
He also looked sweaty.
At this time, tea drinking is also in a period of diverse and diverse places, and flowers blooming. Whether it is the traditional "porridge and tea method" in the Tang Dynasty, the "tea-making method" in the Song Dynasty, and the "sing tea method" advocated by 6 Yu, they all have their own fans.
In the Southern Tang Dynasty, although he always claimed to be a descendant of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, from Li Jing to Li Yu and others, they all respected the "porridge and tea method". Li Yu even agreed with the view of 6 Yu, believing that it was simply "water from the ditches", which meant the taste of the sewer.
"Sweep the room and add fragrance and serve tea" is a common etiquette for welcoming guests in this era. Most of the maids in wealthy families have good tea skills, and even the owners can often play a regular tea ceremony in order to be elegant.
Just a few days after Li Yu traveled through time, he asked Yingxue to serve a meal of tea soup made with the "porridge and tea method", but almost vomited out the overnight meal.
The tea not only has the taste of tea, but also the dried tangerine peel, green onion, ginger, mint, and dates. It tastes not only salty, but also has a scent of scent. When asked, pepper was added, which was only the treatment of royal members. These days, pepper is mostly imported from overseas and the price is not inferior to gold...
When serving, Li Yu never mentioned the three words "porridge and tea method". He let Yingxue boil tea and drink it in daily life. Grind the tea cakes, roast them, and sifted them to "grind them into golden powder, as light as pine flowers". Then pour the tea powder into boiling water and boil them, and then divide them into refreshment.
Of course, what I hate most is that I have to add salt to drink tea at this time...
Li Yu hated him deeply. Under his repeated requests, Yingxue finally removed the salt jar from the tea set.
The tea-making method in the Song Dynasty had more and more detailed steps, and it was also changed to brewing, but the difference was not much.
This practice was later learned by Japan and became their tea ceremony.
As for the tea in Li Jingchang's mouth, it is similar to the method of drinking in later generations. The tea cakes are broken and soaked in boiling water. It is simple and suitable to quench thirst...
"Yingxue put more salt and pepper in my fifth uncle's tea soup..."
"No, no, no, no, no, no," Li Jinglong stopped the sound of a stack of sounds
"Don't (used as an onomatopoeia), are you transformed by a tiger (a chamber pot)?"
"You don't respect the elderly and the wise? Besides, my surname is Lin!"
"Hahaha... Lin Renzhao didn't offend you..."
As they were quarreling, Yingxue brought the tea. Li Jingqiu took it up and blew it a few times. He couldn't help it anymore and drank it in small sips.
"I've been exhausted these two days, and I'm thanks to my nimble mind, so I'm considered to be doing it."
"What's the matter?" Li Yu asked curiously
"Hehe, hehe" Li Jingchang laughed dryly before lowering his voice and said, "Nephew, you said that day, this shop really cannot use men, but you also know where to find so many girls now?"
"Can't find it?" Li Yu scratched his head. Aren't the salespeople in his previous life all women?
After thinking about it, I realized that there are not many large department stores these days, but they are all kinds of small shops. The bigger ones hire five or six men, and the smaller ones are family workshops.
Although the Southern Tang Dynasty was in a civilized manner and was not as perverted as the later Song Dynasty, it was always inconvenient for a bunch of men to mix with a few women.
Besides, these days, stores are all working hard to load and unload goods or deliver goods to their doorsteps, so the female clerks naturally don’t have any use.
"Then how did you find it? I have told you that there are no less than ten shops in our store that are on standby at any time."
"That's natural. Who is my fifth uncle? The smartest person in the Li family. This little thing is hard to get you, but it won't hurt me!" Li Jinglong saw that the tea in his hand was a little cold, so he drank it in one sip and handed the cup to Yingxue. "Give me another cup..."
"Hurry up and say, stop keeping it!"
"Hehehehe, at this time, the benefits of my vast friendship have been revealed. In the past two days, I have been running all the brothels in Jiangning..." Li Jingqian's face was gloomy.
This guy was so vague that day that Li Yu said, "I'm so disappointed with you." But when he looked back, he had to admit that Li Yu's idea was correct, but the girl shop girl basically does not exist on the market. How can he find it in batches?
