My Hotel Connects the Past and Present

Chapter 278: Grand Supermarket Opening (7)

"Brother, there are so many grains here." Li Lizhi took her eldest brother and fourth brother's hands and walked around the fourth floor of the supermarket. She was shocked to see all kinds of grains on the shelves.

"Brother, look, there are so many rice and flour here." Li Lizhi said.

There are really a lot of grains on the fourth floor. There are all kinds of rice, indica rice, japonica rice, brown rice, fragrant rice, etc., and all kinds of rice from different origins. There are also various packages of flour, and there are also different origins.

Li Lizhi, Li Chenggan, and Li Tai are the princes and princesses of the Tang Dynasty. Although they follow their father to be frugal, they are actually a little out of touch with the lives of ordinary people.

But it must be said that this is the first time they have seen so much grain. Even if their family is not poor, they will not go to the granary to check the grain inventory at home. This is really the first time they have seen so many kinds of grain.

Li Lizhi and Li Chenggan had brought back a lot of high-yield grains from the hotel before, and they have planted them now, but to be honest, there are not so many kinds.

Moreover, the high-yield food such as sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes they brought back are different from rice and flour.

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

"Buy some for our family." Li Chenggan said. Anyway, he couldn't afford to buy enough food for the entire Tang Dynasty, so he bought enough for his family.

"Food for the family?" Li Lizhi looked back at him and lowered her voice and asked, "Does the other concubines of Aye count? Do the palace people count?"

Li Chenggan: "..."

"It's enough to buy enough for our Aye, A'niang, and our brothers and sisters." Li Tai said.

Li Tai used to be a little fat. Since he came to the hotel, he has been studying day and night, and often trained with the people of the "security team". He was also dragged to the fitness square to exercise. He is not so fat now.

Maybe Li Tai will not grow up to be a fat man like in history.

Li Tai, Li Chenggan and Li Lizhi are all born to Empress Changsun. They look similar. Li Tai looks pretty good when he loses weight.

The three brothers and sisters are not too old, but they only attract attention because they are wearing Tang Dynasty costumes when they go shopping in the supermarket. They don’t think they need too much attention because they are young. There is no need to worry about safety issues in the hotel.

The hotel’s monitoring system, security system, and security team will protect them. There will be no danger in the hotel.

Even if there are kidnappers who want to attack children, it’s not allowed. The hotel has caught several traffickers who want good children before. No one is allowed to kidnap children in the store.

Other dangers have been solved before they have formed. Everyone still believes in the safety of the hotel.

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

The Li brothers and sisters didn't think they were so good-looking or how conspicuous their ancient costumes were. They were still mumbling about what to buy.

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

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

"Let's buy some fragrant rice and see if the food is fragrant." Li Chenggan said.

"Okay." Li Lizhi nodded.

The brothers and sisters carried 20 kilograms of rice into the cart, and then pushed the cart evenly inside, and selected 20 kilograms of flour and put it in.

"Brother, there are so many oils." Li Lizhi shouted again.

There are really many types of vegetable oils here, such as corn oil, peanut oil, sunflower oil, rapeseed oil, soybean oil, tea oil, olive oil, palm oil, etc., and there are also blended oils and the like, all kinds of them.

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

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

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

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

"Brother, we have to go to the third floor to buy a lot of quilts later, right?" Li Li asked her two brothers.

"Yeah."

It's winter in the Tang Dynasty now. In order for the people to survive in winter, they should also buy some quilts and cotton clothes to go back.

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

Just like tofu has existed since the Western Han Dynasty, but not everyone in the Tang Dynasty could eat tofu. Basically, only some noble families could eat it, because ancient people would keep the recipes secret and pass them down to their descendants, and would not let many people know about it.

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

Li Tai had previously obtained the drawings of the kang from the hotel and gave them to his father, asking him to find someone to teach more people how to build the kang, and then build the kang for the common people.

Li Tai also knew that the Li Tang royal family was not that wealthy, so he had to charge people for building the kang. Of course, the price was very cheap, and it was completely affordable for the common people.

This way, the common people could survive the cold winter and bring income to the treasury, killing two birds with one stone, right?

As for the quilts and cotton clothes, Li Tai and Li Chenggan’s target was not the poor people, but the soldiers guarding the borders from the aristocratic families.

The soldiers guarding the borders would of course be given quilts and cotton clothes for free, while the aristocratic families and wealthy merchants would have to pay for them.

Li Tai and Li Chenggan were both princes. Even though they had seen a wider world at the hotel, they still needed to be responsible for the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Only when the people live well can the Tang Dynasty prosper. Only when the soldiers survive and live well can the Tang Dynasty be safe. They still understand.

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

Now that the Tang Dynasty has entered winter, eating spicy hot pot can drive away the cold, and she also wants to contribute to the Tang Dynasty.

"This is good." Li Chenggan and Li Tai nodded, "Buy more, and then give it to Aye together with the quilt and cotton clothes."

"Yeah." Li Lizhi nodded.

Since her engagement with Changsun Chong was changed to Yuzhang and Changsun Chong, her marriage was reconsidered by Aye, and even her marriage age was delayed to 18 years old, Li Lizhi became more cheerful and lively.

In the past, because she had to marry early, her mother and the maids in the palace had to teach her to grow up quickly, so that she had to reach the level of a perfect wife at the age of twelve or thirteen, so she was under a lot of pressure.

Even though she was the eldest daughter, she could not do whatever she wanted, but since Aye had people re-set the age of marriage to eighteen, her pressure was relieved a lot.

After all, she was only eight or nine years old, and there were still ten years for her to learn slowly, so she didn't need to be as tense as before.

Now she is very happy, and with friends in the hotel, she is even happier. She is not satisfied with being an ordinary princess, not satisfied with being an ordinary woman trapped in the harem after getting married, she wants to make her own career.

Li Lizhi admired her aunt Princess Pingyang Zhao very much. 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 the Tang Dynasty and in the history after that, and she wanted to be like them.

Li Lizhi is now very lively and cheerful, and she is also a little free-spirited, but she is also studying hard, and she wants to make a career.

The Tang Dynasty really does not have so many restrictions on women. With a woman like her aunt Pingyang, there are not so many restrictions on what Li Lizhi wants to do.

She is indeed unable to serve as an official in the court like a man, and she may not even be able to join the army like her aunt, but she can still do other things.

There are 360 ​​trades. Doesn't she have any other way out except serving as an official in the court and joining the army? Li Lizhi can certainly walk out of her own bright road.

Li Chenggan and Li Tai didn't care about their sister's ideas. Their own ideas have changed dramatically, let alone their sister?

Li Chenggan 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. Whether he can succeed to the throne is not certain now, but he hopes to do something beneficial to the Tang Dynasty.

And Li Tai, he is obsessed with studying chemistry and physics. Of course, he also likes astronomy and geography. He really likes to study.

The three siblings walked around the fourth floor, thinking about their own things while mumbling about what to buy for their family and what to buy for their grandfather.

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

It was also because of the high-yield grain they brought back that the people of the Tang Dynasty were not easily starved to death.
