Datang Hotel: The Leisurely Life of a Chef Dad

Chapter 166: Lao Fang, I know someone named Xiao Lanping

"Lao Fang, what you said is that I, Liu Xuan, have never liked money. The main reason is... this matter is very big. If... I accidentally drink too much and say it, your wife will be angry. Can your old man tolerate it?"

Fang Xuanling shuddered. When his wife got mad, she could go to Du Ruhui's house for that earth-shattering battle. After all, Lao Du's house was big, so it was okay for the two of them to talk at night by candlelight.

But now that Du Ruhuixian has gone, few of the remaining friends can still talk to each other at night.

Gritting his teeth and stamping his feet, Fang Xuanling took out a wooden hairpin from his arms, then took off the jade hairpin on his head, and placed it in Liu Xuan's hand with great pain.

"Brother Liu Xuan, I have something to ask my little brother today."

"My little brother is proficient in cooking. I heard that he cured Lao Qin's illness. In fact, my old house also has some...unspeakable secrets."

Liu Xuan held Fang Xuanling's hairpin in his hand and looked at him with a smile: "Old Fang, you know, that's another price."

"Money is not a problem, as long as you can cure it, you know, when I... get older, I... become a little... unable to do what I want..."

Fang Xuanling's voice became softer and quieter, until it finally became the size of a mosquito.

Liu Xuan frowned, and the fire of gossip suddenly ignited in his heart.

There are 108 squares in Chang'an, and there is Lao Wang in every square.

Could it be that Fang Xuanling...

Thinking of this, Liu Xuan smiled: "Don't you enjoy the two beauties given to you by the Holy One today?"

Fang Xuanling had an embarrassed smile on her face.

"better than nothing……"

Liu Xuan fell into deep thought. He tried hard to find an ex-girlfriend in his previous life, preferably a male.

But unfortunately, no.

"Old Fang, this is going to be difficult for you."

When Fang Xuanling heard this, he immediately felt that something was going on.

If it is difficult to do, it can be done.

As long as it is not impossible, there is hope.

Men, if there is no feeling of conquest, what's the point?

"I know a man who runs a pharmacy in the south of the city. His name is Xiao Lanping."

"This person should have some ideas. Lao Fang, why don't you try your luck?"

At that time, the diner named Xiao Lanping visited Datang Hotel every three to five days. Every time he came, he would chat with Liu Xuan, either about how many men he had cured this year, or how many families in Chang'an had lost their lives with his help. He fell in love with the big fat boy, his words filled with pride.

There is only one possibility for him to avoid being beaten to death.

He is a drug seller!

"Lao Fang, although beauties are nice, you can't be greedy."

Fang Xuanling was anxious: "Brother Liu Xuan, what you said is that you are still young."

"My old man is getting old. In the early years, my wife was too strict and there were many rules in the house. Now that I finally have the opportunity, why can't I enjoy it?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Fang Xuanling coughed violently, and his whole face turned red with embarrassment, but it did not affect his tough mouth at all.

It is said that civil servants have the toughest mouths in their entire body, and this is true.

In the main hall, when Fang Yiyu saw Liu Xuan and Fang Xuanling talking and laughing, she came up to them.

"Liu Xuan, I recently read an interesting story while reading. Can I tell it to you?"

"Oh? Miss Fang, do you like reading? Just so I do."

"Liu Xuan, what books do you like to read?" Fang Yiyu's eyes lit up.

"Well...it's nothing more than Spring and Autumn..."

Fang Yiyu's big eyes sparkled with admiration. That was the Spring and Autumn Period. I heard it was the favorite book of General Guan Yunchang during the Three Kingdoms period. He would not read it day and night.

The more he looked at Liu Xuan, the more Fang Yiyu felt that the portraits of Liu Xuan and Guan Yunchang looked a bit similar, and their faces were still red.

"Miss Fang, what is your story?"

"It's about...Kun..."

…

After Fang Xuanling and his daughter left, Liu Xuan planned to have a good sleep. After all, even with the blessing of the system, he still had to have a good rest.

Opening the system panel, Liu Xuan carefully checked the amount of money he currently had.

Five thousand strings...

This figure looks very attractive. In ancient times, especially in the Tang Dynasty, this was a huge sum of money.

The ancients often said that one has a lot of money around his waist, but that does not mean that he has a lot of money around his waist. It is impossible to carry it with him when he goes out.

Liu Xuan suddenly felt a little sad when he thought that the colored glaze he made could cost tens of thousands of yuan per piece. What if he couldn't sell it?

This thing is not a luxury product for future generations. There are countless stories behind it, and there are many people who are willing to spend money to use these so-called illusory stories to show their identity.

This is the Tang Dynasty.

This is China.

People today are still very pragmatic, and consumerism is unlikely to rise.

Unless...those people don't lack money, but they lack status.

Liu Xuan thought of a group, Five Surnames and Seven Hopes.

Who is Qiwang with the fifth surname? The Cui family of Qinghe, the Cui family of Boling, the Zheng family of Xingyang, the Wang family of Taiyuan, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Li family of Zhaojun, and the Li family of Longxi.

Even Li Shimin and Li Yuan frantically moved closer to the Zhaojun Li family and the Longxi Li family, trying to prove that they were from aristocratic families.

It shows that the influence of the aristocratic family cannot be underestimated in any era.

But similarly, in the early Tang Dynasty, the influence of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes was reduced to its lowest point due to the redistribution of power.

Nowadays, the influence of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes is still there, but the power has become smaller, so that it is gradually declining. In addition, Li Shimin intends to revise the clan annals, which makes the wealthy families in the world tremble.

Although Li Shimin had no way to deal with them, he kept disgusting them.

The wealthy and noble families were prepared for danger in times of peace. Although they were stubborn, they became weak, even very weak, which was an indisputable fact.

The people who replaced them were the new nobles in the court, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong and others...

Nowadays, everyone in the Five Surnames and Seven Famous Clan is in danger, not because of their lives, but because of their status and reputation.

This is the basis for their survival and continuous blood sucking.

At this time, they need a little bit of things to make some noise and prove themselves.

Thinking of this, Liu Xuan had an idea in his heart.

If others don't buy it, they will definitely buy it, right?

"Liu Renyuan!"

As Liu Xuan's voice fell, a faint sound came from the roof, and then a person turned over and came down.

"You go to Lao Li and pass the message."

...

In Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin was not asleep.

The warrior in front of him was in a state of panic.
