Qin Song was still very grateful to Daqing, but he could not delay them.""My parents are here, so I won't travel far. I'll just settle down.
Besides, you don't know the skills in the shop. If you have the time, you might as well go back to Yangzhou to learn some martial arts. In the future, you can be a military general. My father said that my 9th grandpa can tear a wild boar apart. Why don't you learn?”
At the mention of this, Daqing's eyes lit up."Alright, I'll come back after I learn my skills. I'm worried about leaving you alone in Chang 'an, unfamiliar with the place and people.”
"That's good. If you learn it, let's see who dares to bully me.”Qin Song smiled very happily.
Daqing was also very happy. He directly brought over a large bucket and poured lime into it, preparing to paint the wall.
What was that? There was no lime in the Tang Dynasty? Stop fooling around. During the Dong 'an period, this was used in battles. There was a prefect named Yang Xuan who fought against the rebel army. He used more than ten carts of lime to confuse the enemy's eyes with the wind. In the end, the enemy was killed.
Daqing kept stirring,"I've never seen anyone use lime to paint a wall."”
" This thing is disinfecting, and the entire room will be bright after it's done. Wait a minute…" After Qin Song finished speaking, he took out half a bag of pepper and threw it into the stone mortar."Daqing, crush him."
Daqing looked at Pepper and was dumbfounded. He turned back to look at Qin Song."What are you doing? You want to learn to paint the wall with pepper? This thing was extremely precious. These must be a lot of money."
Pepper was definitely a hard currency in this era. To put it this way, copper coins might depreciate, but pepper was definitely not. He remembered that during the Tang Dynasty, a minister named Yuan Zai was raided. Not counting the gold and silver treasures, just pepper alone was worth 800 stones. At that time, the entire court was shocked. There was more than pepper in the national treasury.
"Yes, these things are worth five strings of money. It's enough to eat for many years.”
"Then why are you still wasting it like this?"
Qin Song said as he worked," There's an ingredient in this pepper called " carbezine." It's similar to morphine, but it has a better and longer painkiller effect than morphine. It's also not addictive. He crushed it and mixed it with lime to paint the wall. His parents smelled it, and their bodies didn't hurt so much, and they could sleep well.”
"You know a lot. It's a waste of money, but for your uncle and aunt, it's worth it.”
After moving the furniture, Qin Song temporarily settled his parents down. Qin Song welcomed another batch of masons. That's right, he had to do the water. The weather was hot now, and there were maggots on his parents 'bodies these few days. He wiped them with disinfectant many times before he could control them.
Therefore, Qin Song's requirements for this room were very high. The convenience of taking care of the patient was the first requirement. What should be there must be there, and it could not be sloppy at all.
After the lime was mixed, Daqing began to paint the walls. Qin Song brought people to work. He had two routes for the water. One was the pit in the yard, where he wanted to make a manure pit. The other was the sewer that led directly to the sewer pipe on Vermilion Bird Street.
Chang 'an's water supply had been quite developed since the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and it was even more so now, especially since the shops were closer to the Vermilion Bird Avenue. It was simply too convenient.
Next was the problem of heating pipes. The three big rooms, including the shop in front, had to be installed with heating pipes. Iron pipes were a relatively difficult thing to do. Anyway, he had already contacted the blacksmith. He just needed to see when they could make it. He did not care if the weather was hot now. If it was cold, the shop would be busy and there would be no time.
The next day, the custom-made floor tiles arrived one after another. The carpenter brought a toilet bowl, saying that it was dug out from a large tree root. He even got a blacksmith to wrap it in a layer of iron. Until the delivery, he still did not understand what it was for.
On the third day, the carpenter sent over all the wooden grooves and shelves. Qin Song planned to plant these things in the wing room. The weather was cold, and his parents could not do without vegetables.
On the fifth day, the blacksmith brought ten iron pipes with red eyes. He looked exhausted. Although the quantity was small, Qin Song still praised him and asked him to continue working hard to speed up production.
On the seventh day, the ten tables and stools in the shop were all finished, including the front desk for the shopkeeper. Especially the big dining table for the kitchen. It was made of iron wood, three meters long and one meter wide, only three hundred wen. He couldn't be happier.
On the eighth day, everything was sent over one after another. His parents 'room was completely tidied up. The floor tiles were laid on the ground, and there was a heater and water supply. There was also a shower, bathtub, toilet, and other items. Qing Qing was stunned when he saw them. In the evening, the blacksmith finished forging all the kitchenware. Qin Song cleaned up the kitchen and finally settled down.
Daqing and Qin Song lay on the double bed. Daqing was extremely comfortable."You're still the best, kid. You can even shit in the house.”
Qin Song smiled and said,"It's a good thing, yet you make it sound so disgusting."”
"Now that I'm done, what else do you need me to do? " You want to grow vegetables, right? I'll dig the land for you later. It's just the yard in the middle. You don't practice martial arts, so it's useless to keep it. That yard is at least one mu large. You'll have to buy a horse later. Chang 'an is too big. It's more convenient for you to go back and forth alone."”
"Forget about the horse. I still have to take care of it. If there's nothing urgent, I won't leave my parents 'side. It's very convenient to take care of the shop in front and take care of my parents in the back. There's food and drink. It's fine."
Daqing nodded. It was fine for his parents to have a small illness. He would not be at ease if he handed this illness to anyone. Why don't you get a wife? You can't do it alone.”
Qin Song smiled and said," If Father and Mother's illness isn't cured, I won't get married. My mother said that she wants to drink the wife's tea happily. If her body isn't good, how can she drink it?
Now that everything has been prepared, I can always handle it by myself. I've thought it through. This place is close to the Imperial Palace, and those ministers go to court early. I'll just open a breakfast shop. I'll wake up in the middle of the night to do things, sell some food in the morning, and have time to take care of my parents and sleep in the afternoon.”
"Alright, since you've decided, then I'll go back with ease. It's good that you're here. You're close to the emperor. If the emperor likes you and grants you a high position, wouldn't that be impressive?”
"Do I look like a high-ranking official to you?" Qin Song said with a smile.”
Daqing nodded seriously. When you become a high-ranking official, bring your soldiers back to Yangzhou and arrest all the people who used to bully you. Especially that old witch in your family. Give her a hundred lashes first.”
Qin Song smiled and nodded." Alright, I promise you. When I go back, I'll whip her a hundred times first. At that time, you'll do it yourself." I'm weak."
"Alright, I'm strong. I'll split him in half with one whip. Haha ~"
