The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and many wealthy people in Chang'an have discovered the benefits of Xiahe Village.
The swimming pool is the best place to cool off.
Curtains were drawn around the swimming pool, with male guests on one side and female guests on the other.
Not only does it avoid embarrassment, but it also provides shade.
I don’t know who first mentioned it, but now wealthy people in Chang’an also have the concept of sun protection and whitening.
There is also something called swimsuits and swimming trunks sold next to the swimming pool.
There are various styles, and after putting them on, you will feel much more comfortable than diving in your own clothes.
Of course, there were also those children who just jumped into the water.
Don't panic, adults can swim. The water on the children's side is still shallow. The man sitting on a high platform on the shore called the lifeguard.
If anyone is found to be in danger, they will be rescued as soon as possible.
When you are tired from playing, there are ice drinks or various desserts here.
There is an ice cellar not far from the swimming pool. There is a way to make ice in the Yinshan Mountains. There is no need to store ice in winter. It is all made fresh.
Wine or fruit on ice are very popular. You will also be reminded that children cannot eat too much, otherwise they will easily get cold.
"Yinshan Hou, can you find someone to make one for our house as well? Don't worry, we are not open to the public. We only use it for our own enjoyment at home."
The person who came to request was Cui Zhongqing, the second eldest son of the Cui family.
Now he comes here basically once or twice a month, and each time he comes there are several large trucks. You can’t tell what’s in the trucks, but after the trucks pass by, the ruts on the ground will be half deeper than others. inch.
It's not that the Cui family can't find anyone to dig a pond, let's talk about the garden at home. The Cui family's garden is no worse than the one in Xiahe Village.
The reason why he said this was because Cui Zhongqing wanted to give him money.
Yes, just give money, fearing that Tang Ping won't accept it.
Now the Cui family has a car waiting at the door of Tang Ping's workshop every day. The Cui family takes away some of the mirrors, perfumes and other things that come out, except for sending them to Wangshu Tower for sale.
Tang Ping always followed what he said at the beginning, giving the Cui family whatever the retail price of Chang'an was.
Production capacity has increased recently, and Tang Ping has also lowered the retail price of Chang'an, so the Cui family will receive less for the goods.
The Cui family felt uneasy, so when they asked Cui Zhongqing to send money, they found an excuse to give more.
Only they know those luxury goods

How popular it is in foreign countries.
Sometimes when things were lacking, the foreign nobles would simply ask the Cui family to auction them off, and the one with the highest price would get it.
So to say who made the most profit from selling those things, it was the Cui family.
That's why the Cui family kept trying to send money to Tang Ping. If Tang Ping could increase the price of the things sold to them by a few percent, they would be more relieved.
Most people have never seen this kind of thing where buyers want sellers to raise prices.
"I understand what second brother means." Tang Ping nodded: "If you really want it, I can ask someone to get it for you."
This kind of thing is not the turn of Brother Wang Tieniu, the apprentice they brought out can handle it.
"The money the Cui family earns is your own responsibility. Whatever we agreed to do will be done as promised. If it is really a lot of money, I certainly hope that the Cui family can give back to the people after paying the taxes. , it can be regarded as accumulating blessings for yourself."
Tang Ping made it clear. He didn't envy the Cui family for making a lot of money. After all, those trade routes were developed and maintained by the family for dozens to hundreds of generations.
There is no reason to be jealous now that people are making more money.
After all, the Cui family is the family that supports Li Shimin the most besides the Longyou Li family. The Longyou Li family is Li Shimin's own family, so there is no need to suppress the Cui family too much.
"Okay, Zhong Qing understands. You don't have to worry about taxes. All the Cui family's properties are paid on time. From now on, anyone who goes out to do business, whether they are a team leader or a groom, will have their salary increased by 30%. "
If Cui Zhongqing told Tang Ping about this kind of thing here, it would count.
In the past, he would have been an idle young man, but now no one in the Cui family dares to look down upon him.
Because the Cui family's biggest business was given to him by Tang Ping, it was natural for him to speak at home.
No one will stand in the way of this.
After sending Cui Zhongqing away, Lu Yi came in with the account book.
"Sir, the money at home can no longer be piled up."
This is not the first time Lu Yi has reported like this. Tang Ping made a small cellar to store money, which is indeed not big.
Once Cui Zhongqing comes, the position will basically be liquidated.
There is no way, not even the Cui family can exchange the money sent into gold every time, mainly copper coins and silk cloth.
Lu Yi also wanted to see if the cellar could be expanded a bit.
"It's okay, just spend it in a few days.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
. Tang Ping disagreed. He had no plans to save money in Datang. What was the use of saving the money? Does patina develop inside the cellar?
Naturally, the right way is to use it to promote the social development of the Tang Dynasty and then increase time and space energy for yourself.
Although Lu Yi talked a lot, in Tang Ping's opinion, it didn't take more than a few words.
Now that steam engines and coal were available, he thought of building roads.
Not that kind of cinder road, but a real cement road. In the future, if steam engines are used to build cars, it will always be difficult to use cinder roads, let alone those original rammed earth roads of the Tang Dynasty.
To make cement, the process is not too difficult, at least it is easy for today's Datang.
It's just that the demand for coal is a bit high. Now the Ministry of Industry has sent many people to prospect for mines, but there are still a few coal mines near Chang'an.
Tang Ping knew where there were many coal mines, it was in Tongchuan, but it was hundreds of miles away from Chang'an, so transportation was not easy.
He thought that if a road from Tongchuan to Chang'an could be built, then with the current coal usage in Datang, there would really be no shortage of coal.
Good coal can be used to suffocate coke. With coke, many things that could not be done in the past can be done.
Such as iron smelting, burning lime, and burning cement.
I am not afraid of anyone. Now everyone in the world knows that there is something to do in Chang'an, and people from outside continue to come to Chang'an to find work.
Probably just like in later generations, everyone always likes to go to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou to find job opportunities.
Tang Ping planned to help build Chang'an, so that when the time came, the imperial court in Luoyang could build it according to Chang'an's look.
If it is extended to other cities, it will eventually form several large economic and cultural centers like in later generations.
Tang Ping planned to use the money received this time to build a kiln.
The land is all ready, and not far from the workshop area, those who burn lime, bricks, pottery, and cement are all there.
Environmental pollution is a problem. After all, there is no good way to deal with wastewater and waste gas here.
Tang Ping can also try his best to choose areas downwind and downstream of some water sources.
He believes that the current scale is still within the range that nature can bear.
There are still too many people in the Tang Dynasty who don't have enough to eat, so even if it affects some environments, they can only be put aside later.
