Datang Hotel: The Leisurely Life of a Chef Dad

Some people spend money to eat and drink, some people spend money to watch dancing and singing, some people spend money to buy makeup, and some people spend money to have fun.

This group of businessmen from the Western Regions saw someone spending money on glass for the first time today, and they were all happy.

Da Zhuang was so happy that there were more and more people watching.

Among the crowd, there were many well-dressed young men, with fire almost coming out of their eyes.

"If you don't want this Liuli, give it to us!"

"Ten guan of colored glaze is not expensive, but when you go to a brothel, you can just find one or two girls to meet tomorrow."

"It's a pity, it's a pity. Who is this silly big man? Why is he so arrogant?"

People who eat melons are indispensable in the West Market. When everyone saw Da Zhuang, they seemed to think of something in an instant.

"Isn't this Da Zhuang? The Liu family adopted him a long time ago."

"When you said that, I remembered it."

Neighbors all work together in West Market, so they are naturally familiar with each other. However, West Market is a big place. As time goes by, groups of people change frequently, and they gradually forget about it when they don't see each other.

But Da Zhuang, they remember it clearly.

"I remember there was a little guy named Liu Xuan, he must be a teenager, right? At that time, my shop was a neighbor of his shop."

"Wu Laoer, don't talk nonsense. Isn't that boy Liu Xuan sick? After the death of the Liu family, they became ill and haven't seen him for a long time."

At this moment, another voice sneered.

"Ordinary people, you know nothing."

"Liu Xuan is the owner of Datang Hotel, and let me tell you some news that you don't know... Just a few days ago, Datang gained a new Marquis of Lantian... Hehe..."

News spreads extremely fast in Chang'an. Although there is a natural news barrier between civilians and nobles, if someone breaks this barrier, it will soon be like a wave in the water and everyone will know.

Not long after, people in the crowd burst into exclamations.

"It's impossible. That little guy doesn't like to talk. I've watched him grow up since he was a kid. Why did he suddenly become a Marquis?"

"Sixth Aunt, you know what the heck. I, Wu Laoer, have seen Liu Xuan's extraordinary qualities since I was a child. Other people's children go around causing trouble to others when they are seven or eight years old. Liu Xuan is different. He sits there quietly reading a book. ...Ahem..." Wu Laoer blushed, remembering the time when he asked Xiao Liuxuan to borrow a picture book.

At that time, the world had just calmed down and life was still a little sad.

Unexpectedly, after these few years, Xiao Liuxuan suddenly became a marquis?

"Wu Laoer, please stop putting money on your face. If Liu Xuan becomes the Marquis, what will it do to you?"

Wu Laoer narrowed his eyes and clasped his hands behind his back: "Aunt Six, my face is so bright... Hahaha."

Everyone laughed.

The original owner of Liu Xuan has lived in Chang'an since he was a child, and there are many stories circulated, true or false, but they are all similar to ordinary children.

The big man smashed the glass, and the people of Chang'an were burning with gossip.

Xue Rengui wrapped his arms around him and raised his head with a smile.

Although the glass was smashed, the foreign merchant did not look sad at all, but smiled playfully.

"Sir, do you have a lot of glass like this?"

"There are so many, my family has so many heads. Do you want to buy them?"

Needless to say, what Hu Shang meant was that his eyes were filled with light and his saliva was about to flow.

"Hey, I want to take it back to the Western Region and sell it."

Xue Rengui was stunned.

I have never heard of such a thing. Hu merchants who came to Datang to do business bought colored glaze from Datang and brought it back to the Western Regions to sell?

…

In the night, Li Shimin sat happily in the Manna Hall, enjoying the warmth of the strong fire and looking at the refreshing glass bottle on the table in front of him.

"Come here, get some wine."

The glass in front of you is extremely clear. When you pour the grape wine into it, it instantly becomes as red as blood.

A man, a real man, is born with an obsession with blood.

When a soldier goes to the battlefield, if there is no blood, he will be embarrassed to say that he has fought when he comes back.

Of course Li Shimin enjoyed the feeling of the fine wine, but he had heard someone say that it was best to use a luminous cup. Under the light, it shined like fresh blood.

If ice is added, the taste will be...

For a moment, Li Shimin was a little confused.

When Queen Changsun came in, she saw Li Shimin's sullen look and sighed helplessly.

"Your Majesty, you have been looking at this glass bottle for a day."

Li Shimin smiled and waved his hands, then looked like Versailles.

"That's right, Maid Guanyin, what do you think is wrong with me? Why can't I walk when I see the glass bottle?"

"I had no choice but to buy it."

"This thing is not expensive. I want to buy this kind of glass now, and it's just a matter of drinking water."

Coal has indeed brought huge benefits to Li Shimin. The new fuel is now spreading around Chang'an almost at the speed of the spread of the plague, including the land of Luoyang, where big households are all big consumers.

Li Shimin made a lot of money from coal mining.

Once you have money in your hands, it will naturally expand.

"Your Majesty, you are acting like a child. Look at Liu Xuan. Even though he has been granted a title, he is still very calm."

Li Shimin sat up immediately: "Guanyin Maid, you have reminded me that I really want to see Liu Xuan."

It’s not too much to take your beloved newly bought glass bottle to meet Liu Xuan and show it off, right?

Our old Li has never been so generous in his life.

Empress Changsun watched Li Shimin proudly holding up the glass jar. He looked like a second-rate guy walking sideways on the street in spring, swaying left and right, afraid that others would not see the thing in his hand.

"Why has your majesty become more and more... He has changed recently."

As night fell, Li Shimin walked on the street, humming a little tune.

"When the moonlight falls on... my face..."

This song was also heard from Dazhuang. The tune is a bit strange, and the lyrics are even stranger.

If Liu Xuan was here, he would definitely blush. Isn't this a combination of the song "Seeking Buddha" and "Little Cangwa" that he hummed every day before he traveled through time?

Outside the Lantian Marquis's Mansion, the guards took over their shifts, and excitement flashed on their faces.

"Old Six, hurry up and eat. The Marquis roasted the lamb himself tonight."

"Why didn't you say this earlier!"

"Hey, you have to eat your fill before you come to take over."

"You are such a fool!"

As the guards were talking, they saw a middle-aged man with his hands behind his back and holding a glass. He was about to say something, but suddenly shut up.

"Your Majesty, why are you here..."

Li Shimin rolled his eyes: "Be careful when you speak next time. Liu Xuan doesn't know my identity yet."

"Is Liu Xuan at home?"

They were all members of the Jinwu Guards, and they had already figured out Li Shimin's temper: "Your Majesty, I'm here, I'm here."
