My hotel connects the past and present

Chapter 278 The opening of a large supermarket (7)

"Brother, there is a lot of food here." Li Lizhi held the hand of her eldest brother and fourth brother and walked around the fourth floor of the supermarket. She was shocked when she saw all kinds of food on the shelves.

"Brother, look there are a lot of rice noodles here." Li Lizhi said.

There is really a lot of food here on the fourth floor. Rice, indica rice, japonica rice, brown rice, fragrant rice, etc. are all available in various types and origins. Flour is also available in various packaging and origins.

Li Lizhi, Li Chengqian, and Li Tai were the princes and daughters of the Tang Dynasty. Although they followed Aye to be frugal, they were actually somewhat divorced from the lives of ordinary people.

But it has to be said that this is the first time they have seen so much food. Even if their family is not poor, they would not go to the granary to look at the food inventory at home. This is really the first time they have seen so many types of food.

Li Lizhi and Li Chengqian had brought back a lot of high-yield grain from the hotel before, and they have grown it now, but to be honest, there are not so many varieties.

What's more, the high-yielding grains such as sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes they brought back were different from rice and flour.

"Brother, do we want to buy some rice noodles and go back?" Li Lizhi looked up at her eldest brother and asked.

"Buy some for our family to eat." Li Chengqian said. He couldn't afford to buy enough grain for the entire Tang Dynasty anyway, so just buy enough for his family.

"Food for the family?" Li Lizhi turned to look at him after hearing this, and then lowered her voice and asked, "Are Aye's other concubines counted? Are the palace people's also counted?"

Li Chengqian: "..."

"It's enough to buy enough for Aye, my mother-in-law, and a few of our brothers and sisters." Li Tai said.

Li Tai turned out to be a bit fat. Since arriving at the hotel, he has been studying day and night and often training with the "security team". He is also dragged to the fitness center to exercise. Now he is not that fat. .

Maybe in the future Li Tai won't grow into a fat man like in history.

Li Tai, Li Chengqian, and Li Lizhi were all descended from Empress Changsun. The brothers and sisters all have similar looks, and Li Tai, who has lost weight, is also quite good-looking.

The three siblings are not too old, but when they went to the supermarket, they only attracted everyone's attention because they were wearing Tang Dynasty clothes. They didn't think they needed too much attention because they were young - there was no need to worry about safety in the hotel. question.

Under the heavy protection of the hotel's monitoring system, security system, and security team, there will never be any danger in the hotel.

There are kidnappers who want to take advantage of children. The hotel has arrested several traffickers who want good children before. No one is allowed to kidnap children in the store.

Other dangers have been solved before they arise, and everyone still believes in the safety of the hotel.

The safety of Li Lizhi and the other children can be guaranteed. They only looked at the three brothers and sisters in ancient costumes because they looked good.

The Li brothers and sisters didn't think they were so good-looking, and the ancient costumes they wore were so conspicuous, and they were still mumbling about what they wanted to buy.

"Brother, what kind of rice should we buy?" Li Lizhi looked at the various rice on the shelves and asked. There were so many rices that she didn't know how to choose.

Li Tai pointed to the rice produced in Northeast China and said, "This one, I heard it should be delicious and taste good."

"Let's also buy some fragrant rice and see if the cooked rice is fragrant." Li Chengqian said.

"Okay." Li Lizhi nodded.

The brothers and sisters carried the twenty kilograms of rice into the cart, then pushed the cart inside and selected another twenty kilograms of flour and put it in.

"Brother, there's a lot of oil." Li Lizhi shouted again.

There are really many types of vegetable oils, such as corn oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, rapeseed oil, soybean oil, camellia oil, olive oil, palm oil, etc., as well as blended oils, etc. There are all kinds.

In addition to these vegetable oils, there are also animal oils such as butter, beef tallow, lard, mutton fat, and chicken fat, all of which are placed in sealed jars and sold on supermarket shelves.

"Brother, do you want to buy gas?" Li Li asked.

"Qingque, what do you think?" Li Chengqian looked at his younger brother and asked.

"Buy it, it's good to buy some and cook it back." Li Tai thought for a while and said, "Try the taste first, and then we can order more."

"Brother, are we going to buy a lot of quilts on the third floor later?" Li Li asked her two brothers.

"Um."

It is now winter in the Tang Dynasty. In order for the people to survive the winter, they should also buy some quilts and cotton-padded clothes back home.

Of course, Li Tai had paid attention to the fire kang before. From the information he knew, he knew that this thing had been around since the Shang Dynasty, but it was not very common.

Just like tofu has been around since the Western Han Dynasty, but not everyone in the Tang Dynasty could eat tofu. Basically only some aristocratic families could eat it, because ancient people would hide the recipes and pass them on to themselves. The descendants will not let very many people know.

The fire kang is also in the hands of some aristocratic families, and not all aristocratic families even know how to make a fire kang, so this thing is rarely known.

Li Tai had previously obtained the drawings of the hot kang from the hotel and gave it to his Aye, asking Aye to find someone to let more people learn the drawings of the hot kang, and then give them to the common people.

Li Tai also knew very well that the Li Tang royal family was not that wealthy, so there was a fee for making Kang beds for the common people. Of course, the price was very cheap, and it was completely affordable for the common people.

In this way, the common people can survive the cold winter, and it can also bring income to the national treasury. It kills two birds with one stone, doesn't it?

As for the quilts and cotton-padded clothes, Li Tai and Li Chengqian were not targeting the poor people, but the soldiers guarding the border from the aristocratic families.

Of course, the soldiers guarding the border should be given free quilts and cotton-padded clothes, but those aristocratic families and wealthy merchants would have to spend money.

Li Tai and Li Chengqian are both princes. Even if they see a wider world here in the hotel, they still need to be responsible for the people of Tang Dynasty.

Only when the common people live well can the Tang Dynasty prosper. Only when the soldiers survive and live well can they protect the security of the Tang Dynasty. They still understand this.

"Wow, brother, there is hot pot base here." Li Lizhi pointed to the spicy butter hot pot base on the shelf and said, "Brother, let's buy some more?"

Now that Datang has entered winter, eating spicy hot pot can ward off the cold. She also wants to contribute to Datang.

"This is good." Brothers Li Chengqian and Li Tai nodded, "Buy some more and give them to Aye together with the quilts and coats."

"Yeah." Li Lizhi nodded.

Since her engagement with Chang Sun Chong was changed to Yu Zhang and Chang Sun Chong, her marriage was reconsidered by Aye, and even her age of marriage was postponed to 18, Li Lizhi became more cheerful and lively.

In the past, because she had to get married early, her mother-in-law and the nuns in the palace had to teach her to grow up quickly and make her a perfect wife by the age of twelve or thirteen, so she was under a lot of pressure.

Even though she is the eldest daughter, she cannot do as she pleases, but since Aye asked people to reset the age of marriage to eighteen, her pressure has been relieved a lot.

After all, she is only eight or nine years old, and there are still ten years for her to learn slowly, so she does not need to be as tight as before.

She is very happy now, and with friends here in the hotel, she is even happier. She is not satisfied with being an ordinary princess, nor is she satisfied with being an ordinary woman trapped in the back house after getting married. She wants to make a career of her own.

Li Lizhi admired her aunt Princess Pingyang Zhao very much. Back then, her aunt was able to lead troops to fight and was later buried with military honors. She admired her very much.

After coming to the hotel and studying here, she also learned about some outstanding women in the history before and after the Tang Dynasty, and she also wanted to be like them.

Nowadays, Li Lizhi is indeed very lively and cheerful, and somewhat arbitrary, but she is also studying hard, and she wants to make a career.

The Tang Dynasty really didn't have that many restrictions on women. With a woman like her Aunt Pingyang, there weren't that many restrictions on what Li Lizhi wanted to do.

It is true that she cannot enter the court and serve as an official like a man, and she may not even be able to join the army like her aunt, but she can still do other things.

Three hundred and sixty lines, does she have no other way out besides joining the court as an official or joining the army? Of course she, Li Lizhi, can find her own bright path.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai didn't care about their sister's thoughts. Their own thoughts had undergone earth-shaking changes, let alone their sister?

Li Chengqian is still the prince. Although he is under a lot of pressure, he now has a place to relax. He also hopes that he can do better. He may not be sure whether he can succeed to the throne, but he hopes to make a decision that is beneficial to Datang. thing.

As for Li Tai, he is addicted to learning chemistry and physics. Of course, he also likes astronomy and geography. He really likes to learn.

The three siblings were strolling around the fourth floor, thinking about their own affairs while muttering and discussing what they should buy for their own family and what they should buy for Aye to deal with.

The Li brothers and sisters have undergone earth-shaking changes in their thinking in this short period of time, and there have also been great changes in the Tang Dynasty. All this is because Li Lizhi and her two brothers can come to the hotel and come into contact with the knowledge of later generations. the changes that resulted.

Also because of the high-yielding grain they brought back, the people of the Tang Dynasty could not easily starve to death.
