Chapter 52

"Crackling. Crackling!"

The sound of firecrackers rang out in the East Market. Of course, this firecracker was not that firecracker. The firecrackers in front of Li An's shop were actually bamboos roasted on a brazier, so that they could make a crackling sound.

In the Tang Dynasty, when many shops opened, they would buy firecrackers and use the sound of firecrackers to attract everyone's attention.

In addition to firecrackers, there are also banners. A banner is a kind of cloth flag used to attract customers. The higher the banner, the better, because the higher you are, the more customers will see it. Of course, in Dongshi , the pretense is all at the same level, no exceptions can be made for anyone.

After the firecrackers were set off, a group of people gathered in front of Li An's shop. At this time, Liu Fangzi walked out with a bamboo basket in his hand. Looking at the people watching the excitement, Liu Fangzi smiled slightly and faced everyone. First, he gave a cross-hand salute, and then Liu Fangzi enthusiastically shouted to the people watching the excitement: "Dear fellow villagers, elders, little man Liu Fangzi, from Lijia Village outside Chang'an City.

Today I from Lijiacun came to Dongshi and opened a small shop. I hope that all the fellow villagers and elders can come and support me in the future.

Some folks here want to ask, Liu Fangzi, what does your shop sell?

Hey, everyone, please take a look! "

Liu Fangzi said to himself, showing the small bamboo basket in his hand and said: "This is the rock candy sold in our shop. One bite, sweet to the heart. Today is our first day of business. My husband said , everyone who sees it has a share, so each person will be given one as a gift first, and everyone can try it. If you want to buy it, please come into the store."

As he spoke, Liu Fangzi began to deliver the rock candies one by one, one per person, no more, no less. After a while, most of the people around him had received the rock candies. Everyone put the rock candies in their mouths and tasted them. The sweetness immediately captured everyone's heart, and everyone gave a thumbs up.

Everyone said that rock sugar is very sweet. Just when everyone was praising it, someone started to ask about the price of rock sugar.

Liu Fangzi bowed to everyone again and said with a smile: "My husband said that since today is the first day of business, the price will be halved to one hundred cents per tael. After three days, the price will return to two hundred cents." One or two, three days after the opportunity.

And I would also like to tell you that in addition to being delicious, my rock sugar also has healing properties. It can relieve coughs, moisturize the lungs, and soothe the stomach.

If you have bad symptoms such as cough caused by lung dryness, you can adjust it by eating some rock sugar.

The climate is dry in winter, so eating some rock sugar is also a good choice at this time, because rock sugar has the effect of removing dryness and nourishing yin. Some dry coughs and internal heat caused by the dry climate can be cured by eating rock sugar.

In addition, after you buy rock candy, we will also give you a recipe for two types of rock candy. We guarantee that everyone will get value for money when they buy it back. "

When everyone heard this, they thought, oh, this rock sugar is not only a sweet, it can also cure diseases. They all became very interested in rock sugar. Of course, rock sugar can cure diseases. This is recorded in the Compendium of Materia Medica, and it is indeed true.

Li An gave two prescriptions for treating diseases with rock sugar. One is rock sugar water: water is an important substance to maintain a healthy life, but many people don’t like to drink tasteless boiled water, so you might as well add some rock sugar or boil water with rock sugar to drink. The sweetness of the water also allows the nutrients in rock sugar to be better absorbed by the body.Another one is the snow pear stewed with rock sugar: rock sugar combined with snow pear is a good way to treat coughs and nourish the lungs. If you have a long-term cough, you might as well try the rock sugar stewed snow pear!
They are all effective prescriptions. At the same time, under Liu Fangzi's propaganda, many people began to gather in front of Li An's shop and start buying. But at this time, the troublemakers appeared.

Just in front of Li An's shop, people were crowding around to buy rock candy. When the excitement was high, two people walked out from the other side. They were dressed in linen clothes with many holes in their clothes. Their faces were also unkempt and dirty. Rogue appearance.

You must know that it was impossible for such people to appear in the East Market in the past. If they appeared, they would be driven away immediately, and the government officials in the market did not need to take action. But today, these two people can walk here from outside without guessing. I know, this is someone who wants Ang Lee’s rock candy to fail to open smoothly.

"Get out of the way!"

Zhang Xiaoyi and Qiu Xiaobing were seen driving away the crowd in front of Li An's shop.

After that, the two of them walked straight to the door of Li An's shop. When Liu Fangzi and Liu Yi saw that the visitor was evil, they quickly walked out of the shop and guarded the door. They glared at Zhang Xiaoyi and Qiu Xiaobing fiercely. people.

Zhang Xiaoyi and Qiu Xiaobing smiled nonchalantly and held their hands together. Then they heard Zhang Xiaoyi's rogue voice: "I heard that Guibao Shop is opening today, and my two brothers came here to give gifts. One to the God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming, and the other to the old man. Before you come to the store, I will send you three flat peaches to see each other, a mere three hundred guan."

After saying that, Zhang Xiaoyi and Qiu Xiaobing each took out a peach from their arms and placed it in front of Li An's shop. Then they reached out and asked Li An for [-] coins each. Haha. For a moment, Liu Fangzi He and Liu Yi both laughed angrily. You must know that both of them were soldiers, how could they tolerate such a scoundrel?

Liu Fangzi laughed angrily: "I have long heard that you, the rogues from Qinglongfang, like to act like rogues before the store opens, but I didn't expect that today, the labor and management were actually beaten by you, and three people were killed." Bai Guan, what do you really think you are? Get out of here now. If you don’t, let me show you what a fist is."

However, what Liu Fangzi didn't expect was that the two scoundrels Zhang Xiaoyi and Qiu Xiaobing didn't panic at all. Instead, they shouted even more arrogantly: "Okay, that's really great. Come on, hurry up." Let's see your fists. If you don't let us see your fists today, you will be in our crotches."

"Dogs, don't be so arrogant." Liu Fangzi and Liu Yi shouted angrily in unison, and then rushed out to beat the two of them, but Li An shouted at this time: "Brother Fang Zi, Brother Yi, the other party deliberately led you to beat them. .”

While talking, Li An came to the shop slowly and said with a smile: "The two of you each sent a peach over, and then asked for three hundred guan from each of my shop, do you know what the crime is?

Do you know that "Wude Lv" knows that your behavior can be characterized as a fraudulent punishment? The fraudulent punishment is three hundred guan, three thousand miles in prison, and cutting off the nose and ears. Do you want to try it? "

Li An's words finally frightened Zhang Xiaoyi and Qiu Xiaobing. You must know that just now Liu Fangzi said that he would beat the two of them. Instead of being afraid, the two of them were very happy, because this way they were justified. They made trouble and took advantage of it. Li, you still have money to compensate for being beaten, and if you take the copper coins from the person who caused the two of you to cause trouble, that's double the money, isn't that a huge profit?

But now, what the young man coming out of the shop said made the two of them feel an unprecedented sense of crisis. Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty is not another place. The laws here are strict. Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty cares about the laws very much. , are now preparing "Zhenguan Law", which will be released soon. It can be seen that Li Shimin cares about the law.

Li An doesn't play with each other, but directly plays with the law. Do you think these two gangsters are afraid?
