Chapter 330 Li Chengqian Summoned

After returning from Yang's Mansion, Wang Dong knew that his performance in Yang's Mansion today would definitely spread and arouse certain repercussions in Chang'an, but he didn't expect the repercussions to be much bigger than he imagined.

Just two days later, invitations to PEN began to come to my door.

Many literati have invited Wang Dong to be a guest at the literary club, hoping that he can talk about his fresh interpretation of those poems.At the same time, the Pork Ode was also circulated in Chang'an, and many literati rushed to copy it after hearing this poem. Trying on style, some people like it and some people hate it.But it is undeniable that this poem did cast a big stone on the literary world of the entire Tang Dynasty at this time, causing ripples repeatedly.And those two incomplete poems, the desert is solitary, the long river falls into the sun, are more widely circulated than the Pork Song. Many people love these two poems. Wang Dong's idea of ​​reforming the style of writing is actually At this time, it was welcomed by most people. It’s just that the pace of Pork Song’s transformation from poems to words is too big. It’s too far beyond the times, so the acceptance is not high. Stepping on the pain points of the times cleverly, the response will naturally be much higher.

Many people, even if they don’t like Wang Dong’s Pork Song, will sigh that these two poems are just isolated sentences. If they can see the whole poem, they don’t know how lucky they are. Just like the times, fill in randomly to complete this poem, but leave it there for appreciation.

In addition, the follow-up influence of the Wenhui also has a side effect, that is, many people at least regard it as a pleasure whether they like or hate pork songs, and the pleasure of literati means elegance.

So it became an elegant behavior to make braised pork according to the method of Pork Song.

After Wang Dong heard the news, he approached Yang's immediately and discussed starting a new business in Chang'an.

"What business?" The old mother looked puzzled.

Wang Dong smiled and said, "Selling marinated buns."

Anyway, 1 taels of silver is still short.The two 3000 taels didn't arrive in the account, Wang Dong didn't mind that he could earn money faster, why didn't he try when he had this opportunity?
Under Yang's suspicious gaze, Wang Dong proposed a strange way of selling, that is, to buy all kinds of spices for making braised pork, grind them into powder, mix them with sugar, dried ginger and other raw materials, pack them into small bags and take them to the market Go up and sell.

"Can this thing work?" Mrs. Yang really didn't believe that such a thing could be sold. After all, according to the method Wang Dong said, all the materials were pulverized and made into prefabricated materials, and she didn't buy all kinds of marinade by herself. The things prepared with seasonings are cheap, which is very uneconomical, so why bother?
Wang Dong smiled, "Actually, it's a good deal. For ordinary family cooking braised pork, it is natural to use the ingredients bought one by one on the market. But don't think about those arty literati, how much time do they have to spend?" Worth the money? Compared to buying all kinds of seasoning on the street and making it yourself, with this seasoning package, just put it in the pot and stew with the meat, and wait for the meat to be cooked, you can make a good-looking braised pork, which saves Time is naturally a good deal for them."

The reason why later generations will buy all kinds of prefabricated seasoning packages is precisely because the work efficiency of later generations has improved. Instead of spending an hour or two to cut and mix raw materials by themselves, it is better to spend more money from the market. Buy ready-made seasoning packs and add them in, and the remaining time and cost converted into money is far more affordable than the premium of seasoning packs.

Anyway, these seasonings are also powder, so there is no need to use porcelain jars at all, just get some oiled paper with better printing quality to wrap them, make them more beautiful, and each oiled paper is printed with pork songs to tell those literati that this is our royal family. The seasoning for braised pork from the factory must sell well.

Yang Shi nodded doubtfully, thinking about it, anyway, the cost of this business is not too expensive, the big deal is to lose some seasonings at home, for the rich and powerful Wang family, this consumption is still very easy to accept, so they Agree to run the business on your own.

As for those PEN invitations, Wang Dong refused all of them. Anyway, his task had been completed, so he was too lazy to socialize with those people.

In the following time, Wang Dong was busy brushing attribute points every day, and occasionally went to chat with Wu Meiniang. Besides Wang Dong, Wu Meiniang was the biggest beneficiary of this Pork Ode. Wu Meiniang's Yang family's little fragrant pigs have also opened up sales among the rich and powerful in Chang'an. Now the price of the pigs that were originally sold as cheap as loess has increased several times in Wu Meiniang's place, while the price of other people's pork has only slightly increased. The price of pork raised in a small farm outside the city can be sold at the price of mutton per catty, and the supply is still in short supply.After all, this is the pork that is at the center of public opinion in this era.

In this way, Wu Meiniang's profit can be around 100 taels, which is a rare income for the mother and daughter. The little girl is very happy for this.

During these happy fishing days, about ten days later, Wang Dong suddenly received an instruction from Prince Li Chengqian to let him enter the palace.

When Wang Dong went to Dianmao every day these days, he also heard from Qiao Luohan that Li Chengqian seemed to be showing signs of improvement, and now he might finally be able to get out of bed and walk around. The reason why he was so anxious to ask him to go was probably the reason for this pork song. Bar.

Sure enough, after arriving at Li Chengqian's palace, Wang Dong saw that the seventeen or eighteen-year-old fat man looked much better than when he saw him before.

Seeing Wang Dong coming in, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Wang is alive. Have you written any new works in the past few days?"

The last time he met Li Chengqian, although Li Chengqian was also polite and courteous, his attitude was far from so kind. But now he deliberately controlled his demeanor when talking to Wang Dong, showing a faint sense of respect.

Wang Dong quickly said that he hadn't written any poems recently, Li Chengqian just nodded, then asked Qiao Luohan to serve tea, gave him a seat, and began to discuss poetry with Wang Dong.

This was also the first time Wang Dong had an in-depth conversation with Li Chengqian. After getting in touch with him, he found that Li Chengqian's mind was very easy to use, as recorded in history, and his knowledge was quite profound.

In fact, as the crown prince, Li Chengqian learned everything in a planned and premeditated way.

For example, before Li Shiming wanted Li Chengqian to learn Buddhism, he deliberately found a lot of Buddhist scriptures for in-depth study. It is not weaker than all the eminent monks in the world, and has been widely praised. This situation in later generations is equivalent to delivering a keynote speech at a national religious conference, and then receiving unanimous excellent evaluations from Buddhist experts across the country, even considering the monks Peng Lichengqian. Factors, it takes considerable effort to be able to do so.
