Datang Hotel: The Leisurely Life of a Chef Dad

"If, I mean if."

"There is a man who is doing business with the barbarians, for example, buying wool from the herdsmen on the grassland. You two are well-informed people. Tell me what will happen on the grassland."

When Li Jing heard this, he started thinking in his heart.

"If we buy wool, then they get money."

Li Jing said: "If they have money, they can buy what they need on the border of Datang."

Li Shimin looked at Li Jing and then at Liu Xuan: "With money, they can buy food, tools, and everything they need to survive the cold winter on the grassland."

"Liu Xuan, so what does this have to do with Bian Yu?"

Li Shimin realized a key issue, what is the relationship between this and the solution of border troubles.

Liu Xuan calmly put the pastry in his hand into his mouth, chewed it, and took a sip of water.

After a while, Liu Xuan's voice sounded again.

"Those people are born on horseback. They usually go to the border of Datang to harass them. Naturally, it is because everything on the grassland cannot satisfy their survival. If they have money, they can trade with Datang and exchange money for things. To exchange things for things, do they still need to use violence?”

"It would be easy for the Tang Dynasty to destroy their country, but there will always be people to occupy and survive in that land."

"If, if, someone gives them a livelihood, and they have this livelihood, they will no longer have to run around on horseback, face the severe cold and snow, no longer have to endure the pain of lack of food, and no longer need to use violence means to get everything you need.”

“They just have to pay for it and that’s it.”

"Do you think these people will still go looting?"

Li Shimin and Li Jing were stunned.

This statement seemed to open up the minds of Li Shimin and Li Jing in an instant. This seemed to be a way that they had never thought of.

The door to the new world was opened in an instant.

Li Shimin looked inside, it was world domination, the supreme glory.

Li Jing looked inside and saw a name that would go down in history and eternal peace.

"Really...really okay?"

Li Jing's trembling lips betrayed his inner shock.

Liu Xuan did not answer Li Jing's words, but said calmly: "They have a lot of wool, so I will buy wool. As for how to use the wool, there will naturally be a way. The wisdom of us people in the Tang Dynasty is endless."

Li Jing sat on the bench, not reacting vigorously. He was completely lost and his eyes were trembling.

"War doesn't exist anymore, war doesn't exist anymore."

Li Shimin sighed and said to Liu Xuan: "Brother, please tell me something happy. This girl Yaya is so smart and lovely. Your sister-in-law and I both want to accept Yaya as our goddaughter. You know, your sister-in-law I’ve always liked Yaya.”

puff……

Liu Xuan, who was drinking water, instantly squirted out.

This relationship is somewhat complicated to begin with, but now coupled with other relationships, this...

"Lao Li, what do you mean?"

Liu Xuan couldn't understand Li Shimin's operation.

Li Shimin coughed twice: "Ahem, um, your sister-in-law has been thinking about this for a long time, and asked me to come over and talk to you today."

"By the way, besides, you are not young anymore. Although Yaya is your daughter, she is an adopted daughter after all. You have to think about marriage."

Li Shimin blinked, as if hinting at something.

"Okay, okay, just ask Yaya."

When Li Shimin heard this, he was overjoyed. He asked Yaya, "Isn't it easy to catch it?"

After all, although we, Lao Li, can't play around with other things, it is still very easy to bring some cakes and other things to Yaya every day.

In the palace, Yaya seems to like the chef's pastry skills very much.

"Hiss... ow, ow, aw... baboon, baboon..."

Li Jing rubbed his head in the main hall and murmured to himself: "My head hurts so much, maybe I have a brain..."

Seeing Li Jing like this, Liu Xuan suddenly realized the people in a certain story, and suddenly realized what it was like to see people on earth as turkeys in a higher dimension.

Once some doors are opened, they will arouse endless reverie, and everything in the past will be violently impacted.

Li Jing is the one being hit now.

In the past, wars relied on soldiers, horses and food. Now, with Liu Xuan's words, everything seemed to have changed.

Li Jing's mind was consciously divided into two places. In one place, the weapons of war were placed, and in the other place, the means of controlling people through doing business were placed.

The balance point between war and peace that countless people want to find throughout their lives is like a girl without clothes, laid out directly in front of Li Jing, letting him grab it.

By the time Li Jing and Li Shimin left, it was already afternoon.

The two of them walked into the sunset. Li Shimin was extremely excited, dancing and holding a sesame seed cake in his hand.

Li Jing's figure was stretched very long, and his shadow followed him alone.

"Aye, why does an uncle who gets drunk after just one drink want to be my godfather?"

Yaya suddenly asked.

Liu Xuan touched Yaya's head: "Of course it's because Yaya is lovable."

What does a four-year-old girl know? In her world, everything is as stable as the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, and like water flowing downward.

…

Under the setting sun at dusk, Li Gang's shadow was stretched into a strange shape.

"Yan Shigu, you don't think I'm talking nonsense, do you?"

Li Gang was a little angry.

He specially invited two people to his home today, one was Yan Shigu and the other was Kong Yingda.

Yan Shigu had previously aroused Li Shimin's dissatisfaction with his use of powerful people to suppress poor people, so he was still resting at home. Although he remained as secretary and young prisoner, he was already disheartened and closed the door to thank guests.

He was actually not happy to be invited here today.

As a descendant of Yan Zhitui, Yan Shigu has his own pride.

Kong Yingda is different. The old man is enjoying sencha tea happily at the moment.

"Hey, don't be angry." Kong Yingda said with a smile. He touched his gray beard and wiped the oil stains from the sencha on his hands. Kong Yingda looked excited, "If there is such a craftsman's method, it's not impossible. not bad!"

"Li Gang, Li Gang, you have to look away and stop being so persistent."

"Writing poetry is not just about entertaining yourself in the palace."

"A hundred flowers are blooming among the people. If someone really cracks the secret, I would love it."

Yan Shigu also had a livid face at this time and nodded in agreement.

Li Gang was in trouble and looked at the two of them seriously: "You really think I'm talking nonsense."

Kong Yingda comforted Li Gang: "You may have been deceived."
