The first day of the first lunar month, New Year's Day. Yuan refers to the beginning, and Dan refers to the morning.
The Yuan day is the beginning of a year. The Yuan of the year, the Yuan of the month, and the Yuan of the day are called the beginning of the "Three Yuans".
In the Taiji Hall of Jiankang Imperial City, starting from night, the lanterns were lit and the trees and trees were lit with flowers. Emperor Sima Yao and his ministers gathered together to drink together to welcome the red sun rising in the east.
Delicious delicacies were listed on the table, and the monarchs and ministers enjoyed the singing and dancing and drank happily.
This year, the performance of "Butterfly Lovers" started at the end of the year, with 80% of the play starting from the beginning. Many ministers were so fascinated by the performance that they even forgot to drink.
At a quarter of the hour, the bells and chimes sounded loudly, and the maids sang in unison: Emperor Mu Mu, comes to all nations. There are many scholars in the dynasty, and there are no bandits with good virtues... The sound of gold and jade vibrates with the sound of jade.
Sima Yao sat on the throne. Prince Sima Dezong and King Sima Daozi of Kuaiji led the ministers to congratulate and offer gifts to the emperor in turn, shouting "Long live the emperor."
The courtiers read and recited hymns loudly, and there was singing and dancing in the Tai Chi Hall to celebrate the arrival of the New Year.
…………
In Zhongshan City, Yan Lord Murong Chui wore a golden crown and sat on a high seat, also accepting the congratulations from his ministers.
Fu Jian of the former Qin Dynasty vigorously promoted Hanization, and the custom of New Year's Day greetings became popular in the north.
Years ago, the Yan army suffered a disastrous defeat at Shenhebei. Tens of thousands of elites were trapped and killed by Dai Guo. There was great dissatisfaction in the country. It happened that the king of the country, Murong Chui, was seriously ill, and the ministers were panicked. Now that they saw the king sitting upright, everyone felt at ease. many.
The performance had been going on for almost an hour. Murong Chui, who had just recovered from a serious illness, felt a little tight in his chest, and the golden crown on his head made his neck droop.
Murong Chui felt sad in his heart, thinking that back then he was armed with an iron spear and wearing heavy armor, and could fight on the battlefield for three days and nights without feeling tired.
Now I am sitting here, feeling overwhelmed by the golden crown. I am really getting old.
Sitting high under the high platform, the officials came forward to offer their worship and congratulations. Under the light, Murong Chui's beard and hair were white, his cheeks were rosy, and all the courtiers were happy.
The Lord of the Nation has recovered, and God bless Dayan. Although he suffered a defeat years ago, with the leadership of the Lord, he will definitely be able to take revenge.
The red color on his face was the rouge applied by his wife Duan. Murong Chui knew not to show his dejection, so he tried his best to straighten his body and talk to the courtiers with a smile on his face.
After paying his congratulations, Murong Chui picked up the golden cup, stood up and said with a smile: "My lords, at the beginning of the Three Yuan Dynasty, everything is new. I have ordered King Gaoyang to lead an army to the capital. When the weather gets warmer, I will personally lead an army to attack the country of Dai. Snow is the shame of Hebei."
"Long live, long live, long live", with cheers like a tsunami, Murong Chui drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, his mouth full of spicy food.
…………
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, two noodle restaurants opened at the south gate and north gate of Tangyi City.
The Chinese character for "face" is embroidered on a piece of red silk, which can be seen clearly even from a distance of more than ten feet.
The strong fragrance emanated from the shop, attracting many idlers to stop and look around. Children who were playing came to smell the fragrance, and stood in front of the door and drooled at the rising steam.
When the first cage of steamed buns came out, Madam Ma opened the lid. The heat dissipated and the aroma became stronger. The white fluffy steamed buns made people's index fingers twitch.
Mr. Qian started selling with a smile, "Come and have a taste of the newly released steamed buns and steamed buns. I'll keep them for you. If you eat one, you may want to buy two."
Zhang Feng found her home and told her that the noodle shop had hired her to work, and that she would be given a salary of 500 yuan a month. She also asked her two children to help with the work, saying that they could give her some money.
Mrs. Qian is very grateful, she has met a noble person, Mr. Zhang is a living Bodhisattva who saves the suffering.
During the Chinese New Year this year, many families were so poor that they couldn't make ends meet. They relied on the 200 yuan given by Mr. Zhang to survive the New Year.
This job is so rare. Qian has been helping in the store since he was in the second grade of junior high school, doing all the work.
Compared to the few people her family hired from the clan, Qian's one person could serve two people, and Madam Ma was very satisfied with her.

Qian shouted for a long time. There were many people watching, but no one was buying.
"This steamed cake is really pleasing to see. Why is it so fragrant?"
"Why are they called steamed buns and steamed buns? These names are so strange."
"Brother, please read what is written on that sign."
"Meat buns are five cents, vegetable buns are four cents, and steamed buns are three cents."
"Hey, it's so expensive, who can afford it? I don't think this store will be closed soon."
"The steamed cakes sold at the previous store were two for one, and three for five. Whoever has more money will buy the stuff here."
There was an ox cart parked under the eaves opposite. Yang Li and Yang Qiu lifted up the corner of the curtain and looked around. Yang Anxuan and Zhang Feng stood beside the cart.
Half the stick of incense passed, but no one came forward to buy it.
Yang Qiu was a little anxious and said anxiously to Yang Anxuan: "Brother, what should we do? Think of a solution quickly."
Yang Anxuan chuckled and said, "Little girl, what's the rush? Doing business can't be that easy."
Yang Qiu said angrily: "These people are really, just looking at it makes Qiu'er hungry when he smells the fragrance."
Yang Anxuan had an idea and said to Yang Qiu: "Qiu'er, follow Zhang Feng to buy two meat buns and then eat them standing in front of the store. I can't believe you didn't buy such delicious buns."
Yang Qiu jumped out of the car with a smile, Zhang Feng carefully guarded her behind.
After squeezing into the crowd, Yang Qiu threw out ten coins and said to Madam Ma: "Here are two meat buns."
Madam Ma was stunned for a moment when she saw that it was her own little lady.
Aunt Qian next to her did not recognize Yang Qiu, and Zhang Feng was not seen in the crowd.
After finally seeing that the business was open, Mrs. Qian quickly collected the money, picked up the two buns with a smile, handed them over, and warned: "Little lady, there is soup in the meat buns, be careful to burn your mouth."
The buns have thin skin and plenty of filling, and you can see the meat filling inside when you take a bite. The pork with green onions has a rich aroma under the influence of high temperature, and there are clear swallowing sounds from all around.
Zhang Feng sucked the soup in the bun and exclaimed deliberately: "It's so fragrant and delicious."
Finally, someone couldn't help it anymore and came forward and said, "Buy one if you are stupid. It's only five yuan. Give it a try."
When the man took a bite, someone next to him asked: "Master Qin, how does it taste?"
Mr. Qin didn't say anything and just ate the buns. Needless to say, they were definitely delicious.
The crowd pressed forward, shouting for a steamed bun.
Madam Ma woke up from a dream and said with a smile: "Don't crowd around, the kitchen is still steaming. Everyone, the noodle shop also has Yangchun noodles, spicy oil noodles, and pork bones made into soup. Today's opening is for guests, only eight yuan a bowl. Everyone, please come in and have a taste.”
"Bring Yu Ye a vegetable bun", "I want a steamed bun", "Yu Ye come and try a bowl of Yangchun noodles, Yangchun Baixue, just because of the name, you have to try it"...
On the first day of opening, Yang Anxuan ordered the two shops to only make 30 meat buns, 20 vegetable buns, 30 steamed buns, and 30 bowls of Yangchun noodles.
There are many wealthy people in Tangyi City, and all the food in the two noodle restaurants was sold out before noon.
In the afternoon, Madam Ma and Hui'er came to Yang Anxuan's courtyard one after another with money.
Yang Anxuan was going back to Jiankang after the fifteenth day, so he simply discussed with Yang Quanqi that the two sisters in this small courtyard could be used to settle accounts.
Yang Li kept accounts and Yang Qiu counted money. Seeing the two sisters' happy faces, Yang Anxuan smiled and said, "You can just ask a planner to do this, why bother doing it yourself."
Yang Qiu rolled his eyes at his brother and said, "Third brother, you don't understand. Counting money makes you happy."
Yang Anxuan didn't have anything in common with this little money lover, so Yang Anxuan didn't bother to care about her. In the future, there will be so many restaurants open that he probably won't be able to count them.
The vegetable bag costs five cents, totaling sixty, and the due amount is three hundred... The total amount received is one thousand one hundred and twenty.
After a while, Yang Li settled the account and said with a smile: "One thousand one hundred and twenty dollars, just right."
Madam Ma breathed a sigh of relief and sold it today
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Thirty bowls of Yangchun noodles were actually sold, but she secretly paid thirty-two dollars.
"Third Young Master, the business of the noodle shop is very good. After the items are sold out, there are still many people gathered in front of the shop. You might as well make more tomorrow." Madam Ma said with a smile.
Yang Anxuan said: "Everything we opened today was sold out, which is a bit unexpected. Tomorrow we can sell it as normal. Meat buns are 100, vegetable buns are 80, steamed buns are 100, and Yangchun noodles are kneaded according to the amount of soup." "
Hui'er said a little reluctantly: "Master, this thing is easy to sell, why don't you sell it for more? Do you think it's too much money?"
Yang Anxuan said coldly: "Just do what I'm told. You can feel more relaxed if you sell less."
Hui'er was a little scared, so she softly agreed, not daring to speak again.
Yang Anxuan thought for a while and said: "Everyone has worked hard today. You two stewards will each receive fifty coins, and each of the helpers in the store will receive twenty coins. No deductions can be made."
After Ma Niangzi and Hui'er left with smiles on their faces, Yang Anxuan warned the two girls: "You must pay attention to the deduction. If you find out that someone dares to deduct the help, tell your father, and the job of the steward will be over."
Yang Li said: "Third brother, according to your instructions, I asked my mother to ask for two trustworthy maids. My aunt also assigned two people to make the dough and refine the spicy oil in the small courtyard. The cooked food will be prepared the night before. It will be delivered to the store.”
"Just be careful, and don't be too deliberate." Yang Anxuan said: "This secret skill will eventually be known to everyone. In addition to using real ingredients, noodle restaurants also rely on innovative recipes."
For five days in a row, the noodle shop was crowded with people. There were repeat customers and customers who came here to try something new after hearing the news. They wanted to taste for themselves how delicious the noodles with spicy oil were.
The food was sold out before late afternoon, and business was on track. Madam Ma proposed several times to increase the amount of noodles sold, and Yang Li also had some intentions, but was stopped by Yang Anxuan.
Yang Anxuan's purpose is not to make money through the noodle shop. Especially in the initial stage of the noodle shop, many things have to be adjusted. Yang Anxuan is waiting for the problems to be exposed.
"If you open too many noodle shops, there will definitely be all kinds of troubles. The noodle shops in Tangyi are for you to try your hand first, don't think about making money, wait for a year and a half to get familiar with it, and then slowly expand it."
"Remember, you can rely on your father externally, and you must cultivate trustworthy people internally. You must not be soft on those who deceive others. You would rather make less money to keep the noodle shop's brand. Don't let the secret skills be passed on lightly."
Yang Li solemnly said: "Third brother, don't worry, Li'er boiled the spicy oil while watching the maid, and the rice soup and wine used for fermentation were mixed into the flour according to the amount before being kneaded."
Yang Qiu yawned. She didn't care about these tasks at all, and now she couldn't even be interested in counting money. Doing business is really not as interesting as putting together a jigsaw puzzle.
Seeing Yang Li keeping accounts one by one, Yang Qiu looked at Yang Anxuan. The third brother was his biological brother. In his words, he who worked hard managed others. Let the fourth sister do these things, and he only had to sit and collect the money. .
"If you want to open a good noodle shop, in addition to secret skills, you must also be good at using people." Yang Anxuan Dundun taught: "The way to use people is nothing more than friendship and kindness, the same desire from above and below, and the combination of kindness and power..."
Yang Anxuan talked for half an hour, and Yang Qiu was already looking around impatiently. Yang Li seemed to understand half of what he heard, but he took note of it carefully and planned to write it down in a book when he went back.
Yang Anxuan smiled and said: "What I said is just talk on paper. You can explore slowly in the future. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. When encountering problems, be calm and thoughtful. You will always come up with a solution."
Yang Li felt that she had learned a lot. Her mother only taught her piano skills, female celebrities, and how to win favors. Unlike her third brother who taught her the principles of doing things, these words seemed to be talking about business, but after thinking about it, she felt that everything was wrong. it works.
When getting up to leave, Yang Li came to Yang Anxuan and bowed solemnly: "Li'er thanks third brother for his careful teaching."
