In the autumn of the second year of Zhenguan.
Chang 'an.
Pingkang Lane was the most lively lane in Chang 'an, and Yicui Building was the most brightly lit Huan Building in Pingkang Lane.
At this moment, in the flower hall of the Yicui Building, which was hung with red lanterns, a string and bamboo instrument were played together, and more than ten women were singing and dancing.
The leading lady had beautiful eyes, a tall figure, and a slender waist. She was quite graceful. Her singing voice was like a delicate oriole, and every frown and smile brought the spring breeze to the room, making every guest upstairs and downstairs excited and clap their hands!
"Who said that the Tangs view fat as beautiful? I think it's just Li Longji's personal preference for plump women, and later generations 'misinformation. At least during the Zhenguan period, the Tang people still liked slim women.”
In the east wing of the second floor, Si Chen leaned against the red railing of the Emerald Pavilion and yawned heavily. He drank the full cup of stone frozen spring in his hand and casually threw the white porcelain cup back.
The wine glass passed through the window, and a bailiff in a black jacket jumped up and caught it.
"Dafu, call all the brothers. It's time for the night patrol.”
Si Chen said lazily and turned around to walk downstairs.
The bailiff who caught the wine cup responded and shouted at the few bailiffs who were drinking in the room. He picked up the long stick and took the lead to run out.
He had a strong body, and when he ran, the wooden floor made a thump sound. He caught up to Si Chen in three to five steps and smiled fawningly."Boss, just let the brothers go on night patrol. You can just stay here and listen to music and watch beauties. Why do you have to go out and suffer in the cold?”
Si Chen didn't stop walking and said indifferently,"I'm in my position to plan for the government. I'll do my duty." Dafu, you and your brothers remember, you can have fun however you want, but you can't miss the important business. If anyone makes a mistake in the morning, don't blame me for being merciless!”
Although Si Chen's tone was calm, the expressions of the strong bailiff and the seven or eight bailiffs who followed behind him all turned serious. They scrambled to say,"Boss, don't worry. We all know what's important.”
A group of ten people descended the stairs.
The charming brothel madame swayed her plump figure and stuck close to him. She smiled obsequiously and said,"Grandpa Si, why are you leaving so early? Tonight is our Amelia's first day acting. You have to support her more…"
"Get lost. Can't you see that this man is going to do business?”
Officer Zhuang's large hand moved the two mountains away from the brothel madame, allowing Si Chen to calmly pass by.
Si Chen walked to the door and stopped to turn around. He smiled faintly."Dafu, don't be so rude to the people of the Great Tang. Tonight's performance was not bad. It was a good job.”
Hearing this, Officer Zhuang took out a piece of gold from his pocket and slapped it heavily on the panic-stricken Madam's hand.""Take it. Our Master Si rewarded Miss Yulian.”
The brothel madame was full of blood as she twisted her waist and thanked him with a fawning smile.
Si Chen had already lifted the bead curtain and walked out of Huan Lou to the street.
The moonlight was cool.
Officer Zhuang led the rest of the servants out and kept praising his brothers,"Did you see that? Our boss is different from the others. And to us commoners, even sluts like the brothel madame (the Tang people are divided into good and cheap), they are very polite! What is this called? This is extraordinary…"
Si Chen could naturally hear Officer Zhuang's flattery. This person was called Sun Dafu. He was uncultured, but he was smart and loyal. He was a qualified lackey. Therefore, Si Chen promoted him to be the vice-captain of Pingkang Lane's Wuhou Shop.
Of course, Si Chen was different from the others because he was not from this era!
He was a 21st century student who scored 650 points in the college entrance examination. He had transmigrated to the Tang Empire by accident before he could go to a famous school to meet girls from all over the world.
Different from the novels, other transmigrators, no matter how useless they were in their previous lives, could immediately unlock all their skills once they transmigrated to ancient times. They could transform into pharmacists, inventor, poetry scholars, military strategists, historians, and planting experts.
Small things like glass, perfume and white wine, big things like steel-making, banks, and steam engines; He was able to recite the Tang poetry, Song poetry, Yuan drama, and martial arts to bring peace and destroy the country, invent gunpowder and cannons...
As for Si Chen, he sadly realized that although he scored 650 in the college entrance examination, he really didn't know: How glass was made, how white wine was steamed, the specific structure of the steam engine, and how steel was refined…
Refined salt, using cloth bags and charcoal to filter the poisonous salt mine? And then evaporate the crystals? He had tried it before. Good heavens, he poisoned a dog on the spot and the dog died a few days later.
Gunpowder, one sulfur, two nitrogen, three charcoal, or one nitrogen, two sulfur, three charcoal? He couldn't remember clearly, so he tried everything. He risked his life to ignite the fuse many times. The most successful time was when the sealed bamboo joint containing the " gunpowder " made a fart-like " puff " sound…
After traveling through the Great Tang, Si Chen realized that other than the major historical events in his textbooks, he didn't know anything else!
Of course, he had also bound himself to the system.
The strongest marquis system!
However, after the system gave him a novice gift bag, it became silent again. It said that it wanted Si Chen to explore the system's functions by himself.
