It was just as Li Shimin expected.
On the morning of the next day, there was almost only one topic in Chang'an, and that was Xihe Tower.
If Chang'an City had an Internet hot search list, it would probably look like this:
#红月小馆云Everyone appears in Xihelou#
#When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine#
#Nung, moon and new moon#
#东月王海楼absolutely, Tang Gongzi pairs five couplets with one drink and one couplet#
#太元王家五公子 returned drunk#
#The hot man who made everyone make an exception and dance twice in a row finally appeared#
#夜夜天天向向向向#
Suddenly, the names of Xihelou, Tang Ping, and Su Shi were constantly mentioned in the streets and alleys.
The direct consequence is that Xihelou's restaurant reservations have been scheduled for two months.
The number of various membership cards has nearly doubled.
The only person who was furious was probably the fifth son of the Wang family.
"Tang Ping, you are not a gentleman if you don't take revenge for this. From now on, you and I, the Wang family, will be sworn in."
Shopkeeper Wang was expressionless on the side, but he was actually happy inside.
Now I am dealing with Xihelou and Tang Ping, which is like a rat biting a tortoise.
But now that the fifth young master of the master's family is eyeing Tang Ping and Xi Helou, he will naturally find a way to take action. He can just hide behind and reap the benefits.
He was still a little sad because he spent a hundred dollars to apply for a diamond membership card yesterday, but now he doesn't feel so sad anymore.
"Come here!" After giving the order, several of the attendants following the Fifth Young Master Wang moved forward.
"Check it for me. From the moment Tang Ping appeared in Chang'an, check every move and every move you can find!"
Although exposed, he has not lost his mind yet. He also knows that although he has always been called shopkeeper Tang Pingtang, he still has an official status.
Although the Wang family felt that Li Shimin was allowed to sit in this world because of their aristocratic families, on the surface, they still would not directly conflict with the Tang government.
Now that Tang Ping was a celebrity, they couldn't just sink Tang Ping into the moat like they could with an unknown ordinary person.
Therefore, in order to deal with Tang Ping, we must understand his past history clearly, and then see if we can find Tang Ping's flaws.
Tang Ping naturally knew nothing about this. When the restaurant's business improved, it was naturally impossible for him to become a hands-off shopkeeper.
Although Luyi is in charge of many things, there are still things that he has to decide.
Fortunately, the Chang'an Gongfang District has been basically opened due to the investment of Wang Qingluan and the important officials in the court. Now he does not have to keep running to the Chang'an Gongfang District.
Several Jenny spinning machines have been copied and put into use.
The efficiency of his weaving made both the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household doubt about life.
With a large amount of cloth, and the Tang government had not stopped purchasing duck down during this period, several duck down clothing workshops were completed and put into production.
A new building has begun to be built next to the new school. Only a few people know that it is a new weapons research institute in the future.
For this reason, at the same time, construction of a health facility not far outside Shanghe Village began. It is self-evident that the purpose is to ensure the safety of this new weapons research institute.
"Do you want to buy so many ingredients?" Tang Ping looked at the list Lu Yi gave him.
There are two kinds of food in Xihelou now. One is made from local ingredients of Tang Dynasty. At most, it is added with some futuristic condiments such as MSG, chili noodles, and ketchup.
This kind of food can be ordered by all guests who come to eat, because it is a local food from the Tang Dynasty, and the restaurant has a lot of it.
There is also a kind of food, which is specifically for diamond members. These meals basically use a large amount of modern ingredients, such as tomatoes, corn, agricultural products that are not available in this era, or some ingredients that cannot be artificially cultivated and mass-produced in this era, such as Sea cucumber etc.
The rule for eating at Xihelou is that you must make a reservation one month in advance so that Tang Ping can have time to prepare the ingredients.
Not only were the wealthy merchants in Chang'an not annoyed by this practice, but they took it for granted. How could these exotic ingredients reflect their identity if they were prepared casually?
Now for the wealthy businessmen in Chang'an City, whether they have Xihelou's diamond membership card or not is a dividing line.
With this card, you can enter the circle of wealthy businessmen in Chang'an. After all, even among the wealthy businessmen in Chang'an, there are not many people who can spend a hundred dollars to apply for a card.
But with this card, the benefits are obvious. In addition to having a different identity, you can also use the card to enter the fourth floor for consumption. Many people's business is negotiated on this fourth floor.
Therefore, many wealthy businessmen in Chang'an City also call this diamond membership card a fortune card.
The higher the card number is, the earlier you apply for the card and the higher your status will be.
And not only the wealthy businessmen, but also the courtiers who are qualified to get this card are also comparing their respective numbers.
"Your Majesty, Changsun Wuji is your uncle. I won't tell you who is ahead of me. Li Jing is a better soldier than me. I won't tell you who is ahead of me. But why is Yuchi Heitan also ranked one in front of me? ?" Cheng Zhijie asked with dissatisfaction.
"What's wrong? Why can't I be in front of you?" Yu Chigong looked at Cheng Zhijie dissatisfied: "Maybe you think that your broken hands are my opponent?"
"Drink!" Cheng Zhijie also got excited: "On weekdays, Grandpa Cheng lets you go, but do you really think I'm afraid of you? Come on, come on, let's go out and fight for 300 rounds now. Whoever wins will get the ranking. The card in front of you!”
"Just go, I'm still worried about you being a coward?"
As they talked, the two of them really rolled up their sleeves and went out.
Li Shimin didn't care about the two of them. Anyway, this kind of thing didn't happen once or twice. He also knew that these warriors looked rough and crazy, but who was not careful?
They all know that it is a big taboo to act too harmoniously in front of them.
So usually everyone would blush and quarrel over these trivial matters, so that everyone would feel relieved.
I don’t know who lost and who won between the two in the end.
In the Xiande Hall, after Li Shimin and several ministers discussed the making of duck down clothes, he asked them to leave.
But everyone left, except Wei Zheng.
"Is there anything else going on with Xuancheng?"
"Give me my card!" Wei Zheng stretched out his hand.
"Hey!" Li Shimin smiled: "Those membership cards all have one hundred guan in them, and the others bought them from me with 50 guan. I asked Xuancheng at that time, and Xuancheng said they didn't have any. Money?”
"Yes!" Wei Zheng said with a cold face, "I do have no money, but I have bad teeth. Their braised pork is the most suitable for me."
As he spoke, he didn't take his hand back. The meaning was obvious. You have to give me the card, but I really don't have the money.
"You old stubborn donkey!" Li Shimin scolded with a smile and threw away a membership card that was originally reserved for him: "Don't ask me to recharge you after you use it up."
