Chapter 173 Preparations for the Lantern Festival

After two full days of rest, Wei Yuanyuan, who had flown such a long distance for the first time due to physical reasons, finally recovered. And Li Anran also took the time to visit the Tang Dynasty and continue to prepare for the upcoming Shangyuan Festival.

Prepare.

Although it was also the New Year, the time and space of the Tang Dynasty was obviously much more lively than in modern time and space. On the first day of the new year, the servants who had signed the death contract paid New Year greetings to their masters Li Anran and Su Xiaomei in batches.

.

Then came the villagers, and when everyone came to pay New Year greetings, although no one gave anything valuable, they all brought food cooked by themselves, knitted trinkets, or eggs produced by themselves.

East.

Even though Li Anran was not short of these things, he did not refuse the gifts and thoughts that came to his door.

This kind of New Year greetings started on the first day of the Lunar New Year and lasted until the Lantern Festival, which is the fifteenth day of the New Year, finally ended.

At first, considering that my young master was lazy, no, he should have a leisurely temperament, under the arrangements of Wang Youde and his housekeeper, only twenty households came to visit him every day to pay New Year greetings. But according to the servants that Xiaoyao Villa now has, the villagers and employees

With the number of people coming, it was impossible to receive them all before the Lantern Festival, so in the end we had to improve efficiency to finally get it done.

These are not big things. The real big thing is the upcoming New Year's Eve day.

The fifteenth day of the New Year is called the Lantern Festival in modern time and space, also known as the Xiaonian Festival. In addition to eating some Lantern Festival according to the occasion, according to different local customs, temple fairs, lantern festivals and other similar selections will also be held. Anyway, every year on the fifteenth day of the New Year

The Nanjing Confucius Temple Lantern Festival will be crowded with local and foreign tourists. It is no exaggeration to describe it as crowded and crowded.

In the time and space of the Tang Dynasty, a curfew system was implemented in normal times. In other words, you should not go out at night. Otherwise, if you are caught, you will be sent to the police and thrown into prison if you are lucky. If you are not lucky, you will be executed immediately.

The soldiers were beheaded.

But on the fifteenth day of the New Year, which is the Lantern Festival, it is also called the Lantern Festival. During the three days before and after this festival, the curfew that is usually implemented will be canceled by the people in Chang'an City for convenience.

People enjoy the lanterns, which is called "setting out the night".

During these three rare open nights, everyone from princes and nobles to traders and servants went out to admire the lanterns. As a result, the streets in Chang'an City were jammed with cars and horses. There was a huge crowd and a lively atmosphere. Even the emperor.

It is also very likely that you will not be able to resist the festive atmosphere of the Lantern Festival and will go out of the palace to enjoy it with the people.

Although the promotion and investment promotion work of commercial streets and farmers’ markets were done well in the past, after all, they were located outside the county. Even if they were not very far away, it would take some time to go back and forth. Therefore, in order to make yourself in the big city

Tang Shikong's first real fortune was able to get off to a good start, but Li Anran had put in a lot of effort.

Considering that the theme of the Lantern Festival is lanterns, after learning from Wang Youde about the customs and traditions of the three festivals of New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, and Lantern Festival, Li Anran ordered a large number of lanterns needed for the festival in modern time and space.

Various equipment and supplies.

Among them, the main lanterns alone, there are hundreds of types, both machine-made and handmade. Kongming lanterns are as big as two stories high, and they are small enough to be used as lighting when carried in the hand, and they are beautiful and fun.

Small lanterns, and revolving lanterns with pictures that turn into dynamic pictures when rotated are all available.

In addition to these festive supplies, Li Anwei also specially asked Xiangyun to arrange for people to decorate the commercial street. Not only did they set up street lights on the roadside that can make the night brighter than day, but they also opened up the shops that were originally empty.

, have also been appropriately decorated, making the entire commercial street cheerful and full of New Year flavor.

Those shops that have been rented out have all received notices about the lantern festival to be held during the Lantern Festival. Although this festival is also very important, for people who are engaged in business, the more times like this, the more good opportunities they have to make a lot of money.

What's more, this is also a test of the commercial street's financial prospects, so no one wants to miss this good opportunity that comes to their doorstep.

As for the shops that have not been rented out, there is no waste. Enough manpower is directly transferred from the villa. At the same time, Li Anran purchases various bulk foods for the New Year in large quantities from modern time and space, such as candies, pastries, cheese,

Dried meats, nuts, candied fruits, roasted seeds and nuts, dried meats, melons and fruits, etc., both in quantity and variety, are no worse than the wholesale markets of modern time and space.

In addition, I thought that since I had already done it, I would just make a bigger Li Anran. At the same time, I also placed a batch of purchased snack equipment in various vacant shops, such as Taiwanese grilled sausages and spicy fried chicken wings.

, hot chicken popcorn, spicy hotpot, duck blood vermicelli, wood-fired wontons, stinky tofu, duck neck, sesame cakes, cut cakes, ramen, fried buns, steamed buns and so on.

As long as they are famous and delicious snacks in modern time and space, Li Anran has basically got them in his own commercial street. As for the technical problems, they can also be easily solved, with the group of cooks headed by Zhao Qianshi.

, it is not easy to train good cooks in a short time, but it is not difficult to teach a group of people to use these equipment to make corresponding snacks.

What's more, there are many things, such as hand cakes, fried chicken, grilled sausages, etc., which are all semi-finished products directly wholesaled. At that time, you only need to throw them into the pot or put them in the oven for a while.

It can be done by just doing the processing, and does not require much skill or ability. Old girls, young wives, and even little guys who are not yet adults can do it.

In addition to food and drink, Li Anran also prepared a lot of clothing, accessories, and groceries that are used in daily life. Such as chopsticks, dishes, scissors, hoes, needlework, wine sets, tea sets, vases, etc.

Etc., in short, a lot of daily necessities that are both practical and not unusual have been approved as long as the civilization span is not large.

In fact, with the material surplus between the Tang Dynasty and modern time and space, Li Anran spent so much time and energy, and with these investments, even if he could make use of the exchange rate between copper coins, silver and gold in this era, he could still make a fortune.

, but the profits therein are simply not as profitable as getting some jade materials, field huang, and chicken blood stones from the Tang Dynasty and selling them in modern time and space.

But for Li Anran, the modern way of making money through luxury goods and collectibles is not impossible to continue. But with the previous special auction that caused a sensation for a long time, it finally subsided.

The risk of continuing like this is much greater than it was at the beginning.

Especially after receiving private transaction invitations from the auction company on behalf of some wealthy and powerful people, Li Anran knew very well that his method of quickly obtaining large amounts of funds had brought about certain adverse consequences. In this way

Under such circumstances, if you continue to make money through the old ways, you are simply causing trouble for yourself.

Fortunately for Li Anran, he did not lose his mind after earning the largest fortune in his life. After purchasing a winery in Napa, he established an offshore company, a leather bag company, and a transit warehouse.

Domestic trading companies, international trading companies and many other industries can still generate a lot of profits every year even if they no longer use the resources of Datang Time and Space.

Coupled with the funds obtained from the previous auction, there is no need to worry about lack of money in a short period of time. It is precisely because of this that Li Anran has no plans to make any profits that can be generated by the Lantern Festival this time.

Go to modern time and space. Instead, prepare to invest in your next plan.

Compared with the busyness and fulfillment in the time and space of the Tang Dynasty, Li Anran, who takes as much time as possible to return to the modern time and space every day to show off his presence, seems to be much more relaxed, and equally relaxed is Wei Yuanyuan, who has recovered her health.

After being discharged from the hospital, Wei Yuanyuan was placed in an antique house. Although she liked the environment and scenery very much, she still felt a little uneasy when she was always relaxing like this. So, she found someone who was enjoying the afternoon leisure time on the beach.
