Emperor Xiaoyao of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 115 The Dragon Boat Festival Anecdote
Now the people in Chang'an all know that there is a shop that sells a small thing that catches fire as soon as it is rubbed, and the price is not expensive, and half a load of firewood can be exchanged for one.It is said that when there is no such thing, it is necessary to build a fire, that is, to bury it. In a low-oxygen environment, the combustion is delayed, and the next day it is removed and reused.This is a technical job, if it is not done well, it will be borrowed from the owner and the west, and it is basically necessary to add firewood during the day so that the fire will not go out. The reason why my husband shouted "the sky is high and things are dry, be careful of fire and candles" every night.

Well now, with the "thief run" (zippo homonym) brand fire scythe, everything has become different, the stove can be completely rested, and there is no need to worry about a fire in the middle of the night anymore!In case there are small thieves patronizing, wipe the "thief run" scythe, and the thieves will disappear immediately!You only need half a load of firewood to have a fire weapon!Don't rush to buy it?

The business of this small shop called "Ice and Fire Two Heavens" is booming. There is a long line of people buying things. The things they sell are limited purchases. Want to buy more, right?Yes, but please go to the back and queue!Just so arrogant, who let people have such a family?

This thief running fire sickle has enough stock, but the "Jin Yiwei" shaved ice seems to be a little under stocked. I heard that it has started to be limited, and one person can only buy two bowls at most. Want to buy more?All right, go back in line!There is also a small snack that is equally delicious-"Jinbo" brand rice flower, I don't know how to make it, it is white and sweet, and it turns into sweet miso after a while, reaching as high as Toothless old man, down to young children, love everyone.Although it is also limited, fortunately, the supply is sufficient, and a large truck will be delivered in a while.The guy said that this thing can't see the tide, it's okay for three to five days, and it won't taste good after a long time, so you should buy less.I would rather sell less and consider customers. This small shop has gathered a lot of popularity in just a few days, and it is not without reason.

All of this was done by Manager Xie leading the shopkeepers. Jin Yu didn't know that he couldn't worry so much by himself, so he gave each product a name and settled the matter.He is now at home rummaging through the textbooks for later generations. Time is tight and the task is heavy, so he has roughly finished the textbooks for junior high school.

After a few days of operation, the business of Ice and Fire is finally on the right track. Manager Xie rushed to find Jin Yu for a job description report, and by the way, see if he can open a new store.

Jinyu took over the account book and managed it strictly according to the "invoicing, sales and storage" that he explained at the beginning. The accounts are very clear, and the daily profit is also attached to the following table. "Okay, there's no problem, I'll check it out with my wife later." Jin Yu glanced at it, and found that there were no loopholes, and since he has less time in the future, it would be more appropriate to leave it to Yang Ying to be the housekeeper.

"Here." Manager Xie was very respectful, and this kind of respect was admiration from the bottom of his heart. "Master, the business in the shop is good now, so we don't need so many shopkeepers, do you think we should do something else?"

"According to Manager Xie, what is the right thing to do?" Jin Yu stood up and stretched his waist, and there was a hint of consideration in his words.

"In my opinion, the furniture that the young master asked Tai to make is pretty good." Steward Xie had been thinking about this question for a long time, and after Jin Yu asked, he blurted out immediately.In fact, in his opinion, it is best to open a restaurant, but now the mansion is in short supply, especially those few who Jin Yu taught cooking skills, they can't leave at all.Another point is that it is best to avoid technical issues as much as possible, and it is better to let the owner raise it himself, otherwise it will be unclear if there is any misunderstanding.

"Success." Jin Yu didn't know what Guanshi Xie said in his heart, so he gave him a score in his heart, and he was barely qualified. If Guanshi Xie knew, wouldn't he die unjustly? "Let's go for the furniture. Think about how to make it into a time-honored brand. After all, other carpenters can make it as well as you can."

"Here." Steward Xie took the order, and said to Jin Yu, "Then please give me a name for this piece of furniture."

"Then let's call it 'Jin IKEA'." Jin Yu didn't have any good words. Later generations have seen too many advertisements, so they remember a lot of these brands.

"The old slave will go back to prepare in a while." Manager Xie lowered his attitude. Although he has now become a free man, he still regards himself as a member of the Jin family.

"Okay, let's go." Jin Yu waved his hand and asked Guanshi Xie to push it out.I lay on the bamboo chair with my head resting on my hands, thinking about teaching aids.All set squares, compasses, half-circles, rulers, etc. are used. There are no calculators these days, and the abacus is also indispensable.Well, I have to go to Taitai to make offerings.After listening to Jin Yu's description, Tai Gongfeng was full of praise for the creativity of the compasses, and satisfied Jin Yu's little vanity.

Life can't just be fun every day, that's playing tricks.When Jin Yu was busy, Yang Ying was not idle. These days, she finally found a feeling of a housekeeper.According to the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival, what should be bought should be bought, such as embroidering a sachet for Jinyu, stuffing some Angelica dahurica, Chuanxiong, and Qincao, which can not only refresh your mind, but also have the effect of repelling insects and mosquitoes. I also want to embroider a five-poison bellyband, not to mention evil spirits, my husband also likes this tune, and it kills two birds with one stone.It's a big festival, as the host, how many zongzi should be given to the laborers?This can be done by the chef team, but you and your husband have to do it yourself.In addition, the housekeeper who sprinkles realgar and hangs wormwood can do it, but the lan soup needs to be prepared by himself, and the mandarin ducks are good for playing in the water!Thinking of this, Yang Ying gave herself a sip.

There are not many entertainment activities these days, so the festival is more like a rare group fun. Cheng Huaimo invited Jin Yu to watch a polo match, but Jin Yu refused. In later generations, Jin Yu didn't like ball games very much.After yelling in the stands for a long time, I couldn't score a single goal, and it was so disappointing.For Jin Yu, it is better to have a drink with his wife if he has the time to yell.

"Husband, drink more, it's a good thing to relieve heat and ward off evil spirits." Yang Ying filled Jinyu with a glass of realgar wine.

"Okay." Jin Yu happily drank another cup, took a bite of food, and said, "It's not fun to just drink, shall I tell you a story?"

"Yeah." Yang Ying nodded excitedly. Although the stories told by Jin Yu cannot be accepted by the present world, it does not hinder their wonderfulness. Yang Ying knows this.

"My husband is going to tell the story of the White Snake to the lady today. It is said that the White Snake was transformed by a 1000-year-old snake demon``````" Jin Yu spread the white snake slowly with a folding fan.

"Bai Suzhen is a bad snake demon!" Every time Yang Ying said something surprising, Yang Ying interrupted Jin Yu before he finished speaking.

"Uh```Why do you say that?" Jin Yu was stunned, and he told the story of that **** by himself, and later generations also pointed out the falsehood, but this story is a classic of pursuing love, so it is bad in Yang Ying's mouth up?
"Husband, think about it, since Bai Suzhen has boundless magic power, just change some gold and silver treasures to Xu Xian, and at least you can save Xu Xian's life when he is in danger, why do you have to promise him with your body?" Yang Ying frowned. Nose, analyzed: "It is obvious that Bai Suzhen has taken a fancy to Xu Xian, and she is not afraid of retreating in her own practice under the banner of repaying her kindness."

Jin Yu wanted to refute, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything. The generation gap is too big. It seems that he will tell Yang Ying less stories in the future.

"Then Xu Xian is also a master of lust and obsession. He was not grateful for being rescued by Zen Master Fahai, but he had an evil seed with that snake monster." He whispered to Jin Yu with a gossipy face: "Husband, what do you think the child of a man and a demon will be like?"

"Uh```This```" Yang Ying's question reminded Jinyu of the classic line "People are born of human beings, and monsters are born of demons." According to this reasoning, could it be a shemale? no?Feeling cold for a while, Jin Yu quickly shook his head, "This, my husband really doesn't know."

"Hey. I don't even know about myself." Yang Ying also drank a little wine, her little face was flushed and cute. "Your husband has worked hard on telling the story, please have another drink."

"Well, the lady also drinks a little." Jin Yu asked Yang Ying jerky.

"I'm thinking about it, this story must have been made up by a man, and I just want to find a chance to have a good time." Yang Ying's heart of gossip did not go out, but burned more and more vigorously.

"Maybe." Jin Yu nodded stiffly, what else could he say?Classic stories can be understood like this.

"Isn't it my husband who made it up?" Seeing Jin Yu's appearance, Yang Ying asked suspiciously.

"No." Jin Yu quickly shook his head in denial.

"It's fine if it's not, the story is quite nice, hehe." Yang Ying drank a little too high, showing some signs of drinking madness.

"Husband, let me tell you a secret, hehe." Yang Ying put her head next to Jinyu's ear and said, "This concubine is also here to repay her kindness."

"Huh, huh?" Jin Yu came to his senses, feeling like ```how should I put it, goosebumps all over his body.

"The concubine is also here to repay the favor." Yang Ying repeated, "but the concubine is to repay the kindness of the husband in this world."

"The lady's surname is Yang. Could it be that she is a poplar tree spirit who has practiced for thousands of years?" Since he has passed through, everything is possible, and Jin Yu is a little suspicious.

"The concubine is not a goblin!" Yang Ying gave Jin Yu a white look, "The concubine refers to the life-saving grace of the husband."

"Oh, oh." Jin Yu took a sip of wine, feeling a little bit shocked, and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore, let's speak ill of the white lady, be careful that the white lady will come to you and me at night to take revenge."

"Let's not talk about it. We have realgar, don't be afraid." Yang Ying was a little silly and bold after drinking.

"Come on, my lady has worked hard, pour a glass of wine for my husband." Jin Yu now wanted to see if Yang Ying would lose her shape if she drank too much.

The two came and went, and they got a little taller. Jin Yu sat on the edge of the bed for a while, and turned to look at Yang Ying who was sleeping. Fortunately, she didn't change into another shape, but changed her posture.

Jin Yu laughed at himself nervously, blew out the lamp, and fell asleep.
