Chapter 95 Jiang Fenglou
(It's still very important to ask for recommendation votes for two updates, please!)
Stone fat water is actually oil. This thing was called "stone lacquer" in ancient times, "stone fat water" in the Tang Dynasty, and "hard turbulent oil" in the Five Dynasties. Shen Kuo of the Song Dynasty first proposed the name "oil".
During the Tang Dynasty, these stone and fat water were only possessed by the army, and were tributed by the emperor of Chameng (an ancient country in central and southern Vietnam).
Fire attack in war is mostly based on firewood, oil, etc., which are the primary means of arson. The power of stone fat water is much greater, and it is characterized by the more intense the fire becomes, making it more suitable for fire attack.
"You can actually get the stone fat water from the Tang army?" Lin Dadao was shocked.
Cui Shouzheng smiled indifferently, "What is this what the Cui family wants, even in the palace, but you are not bad. You actually know Shilishui. Since you know him, you should know what I want you to do?"
"Burn off Li Zhan's shop in Xinghuafang." Lin Dadao said quietly.
"Do you dare?" Cui Shouzheng smiled slightly.
"Of course, I dare not, Chang'an curfew, I can't walk at night, but this fire can only be set at night?"
As soon as Lin Dadao finished speaking, Cui Shouzheng took out an iron sign and smiled: "What do you think of this?"
Lin Dadao looked at it and was shocked again: "Your aristocratic family actually got the Jinwu Guard's cards tonight. What's the difference between this world and your aristocratic family?"
"Hmph!" Cui Shouzheng sneered: "You are a smart person. Although the world has the surname Li, his surname is the emperor, but his surname is the emperor will never be able to block our surname Cui.
Without saying much nonsense, will you do it or not?”
"Why don't you do it? Give me a few days to prepare. I will definitely burn Li Zhan's shop for you."
"One store is not enough, I want Li Zhan to die." Cui Shouzheng said viciously.
"Yes!" Lin Dadao replied expressionlessly.
"Brother Zhan!"
Li Zhan’s store is open, but there is no goods transaction. After all, Li Zhan is not a businessman and cannot accurately predict the market. He originally thought that his free soap would be given for a few days.
But who knew that I had done it all in one day.
So Li Zhan has a store, but he sells nothing.
Just when Li Zhan was bored, Cheng Chumo, Niu Zhui, Yuchi Baolin and others came together. Seeing Li Zhan’s shop, the few people laughed and scolded Li Zhan.
Seeing the visitor, Li Zhan also smiled and bowed his fists one by one and said, "I originally wanted to notify you, but I know you are busy, and my small shop is uncertain, so I can forget it."
"That's not OK Since we are here today, Brother Zhan must treat us to a good meal." Yuchi Baolin said hehe.
"Wait until we go to Jiangfenglou!" Li Zhan smiled and said one of the best restaurants in Dongcheng City.
In this way, Cheng Chumo and others showed their satisfaction.
In this way, because there was nothing wrong, everyone closed the shops and went to Jiangfenglou to prepare for a big meal and have a good time.
Jiangfeng Building is the best restaurant in Chang'an. How good is it? It is said that Jiangfeng Building has three floors, five floors facing each other, flying bridge railings, and light and dark. The overall building is undulating, with staggered eaves and corners, and is magnificent. It integrates eating, drinking, playing, and having fun, and is the largest entertainment center in Chang'an.
There are thousands of individual customers, elegant seats, and the festival is unprecedented.
When you come to Jiangfeng Tower, you will first see a branch made of black and black wooden strips that are erected. Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, only those who have to be above the third rank are qualified to use. You will remind you to get off the horse and get off the sedan chair, and there are dedicated people to serve, similar to the service desk for valet parking today.
The colorful house door tied to the front of the restaurant door makes you feel a luxurious atmosphere before you enter the restaurant. The top of each floor of the restaurant is tied into a mountain-shaped flower stand, decorated with flower-shaped and bird-shaped ornaments, just like the neon lights flashing in a nightclub tonight.
There were two welcoming friends standing in front of the door. They were "wearing square top turbans, purple shirts, silk shoes and clean socks" and were polite to others and shouting in to come in, similar to the current welcome.
Li Zhan, Cheng Chumo and others felt fine in this scene, but they shocked Li Sheng, Li Yi, Li Xing and others. You must know that Li Sheng, Li Xing and Li Yi have just come in from outside the city. How do you know the prosperity of Chang'an City? You can buy food together in the morning, which has already shocked them. Now that they see the luxuriousness of Jiangfeng Tower, they are even more shocked.
"Haha, look at our little Xing'er. I don't know how to go. I said, Brother Zhan, you should also take our younger brother and sister here to sit here often." Cheng Chumo smiled and touched Li Xing's little head.
Maybe it was because of Aiwu and Wu, these brothers were very good to Li Zhan’s younger brothers and sisters.
"Brother Zhan is not as rich as your young master. I think you should bring Xing'er to you more." Niu Zhao laughed.
Following the others, Cheng Chumo immediately agreed in unison, and didn't know how to answer, so he could only agree in one go.
After entering Jiangfeng Building, there is a wide and straight main corridor, with two corridors in the north and south patios, which are the so-called small private rooms today, which were called "Jiu Pavilion" at that time.
Restaurants, dignitaries, nobles, and ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty can enter and exit at will, but there is also a rule to enter the restaurant, and you should not easily climb up the pavilion. If you don’t prepare to spend too much, it is better to find a "scattered seat" downstairs, because entering the private room requires a private room fee.
Whether in the private room or in a seat, as long as you sit down, you can enjoy any soup for wine. The whole venue is free. Just like today's Korean cuisine, kimchi is free. Even if there are ten guests, each person will have to give it a soup. After selling, you can greet each other enthusiastically. The menu is full of hundreds of dishes, which are singing like a stream. Before the wine arrives, set a few dishes to "look at the dishes" - serve cold dishes first! When you raise the glass and change the fine dishes, hot dishes, you are very flattering, and there is no mistake. The service quality will definitely satisfy you.
"Is it here or?" Cheng Chumo asked.
"Just here!" Qin Huaiyu wanted to save money.
However, Li Zhan smiled and said, "It's rare to ask me, Li Zhan, this time, I will have to spend a lot of money."
Li Zhan's words made Cheng Chumo applaud and followed him to the pavilion together.
After going up to the second floor, forget it on the third floor. Li Zhan really couldn't afford it. He found two wine pavilions, and Yang Qiaoer took Li Sheng, Li Yi and others to a wine pavilion.
Li Zhan was in the same wine pavilion as Cheng Chumo and others. Of course, the dishes on both sides were the same.
Then the atmosphere of drinking and drinking was getting better and better. However, at this moment, Li Zhan and others heard the accompaniment of the musical genius next door to cheer up.
Li Zhan suddenly thought of Cheng Chumo's Yan Xiaoxiao, so he blurted out and asked Cheng Chumo: "By the way, Brother Cheng, how is your Yan Xiaoxiao?"
But what Li Zhan didn't expect was that his Yan Xiaoxiao had just spoken, and everyone on the side actually burst into laughter. The laughter made Li Zhan feel a little unaware of what he said wrong.
