    "I don't know how much money it would cost to build such a mansion." I shook my head and was speechless. Although I admired the scenery very much, the problem was that I had to spend who knows how much money to build such a mansion, unless I  The young master is insane and his brain has collapsed.  Now I live in a courtyard like this. Although it is very large and open, I really don’t like this kind of layout. I prefer the kind of villa of later generations, where the whole family can live in the same house.  Then create some small scenery, there are gardens in front and behind the villa, and there are also pastures, preferably bigger, where you can run horses and so on.  As for wanting to see small bridges and flowing water, just go to a place with such scenery. Living in a hut with small bridges and flowing water every day, even a young man like me can't stand it.  It seems that this is one of the differences between me, a time traveler from the future, and people from this era. In terms of aesthetics, we have the same aesthetics, but there are still certain differences in our living environment.  "It is said that the money spent by the Duke of Chu is no less than two to three million." The old uncle took a deep breath and sighed.  After hearing this, I felt very sad. Yes, the property in my hand now is less than a thousand guan. But in the Sui Dynasty, two hundred guan could buy a small courtyard, and one guan could buy sixteen thousand guan.  Seven stones of rice, which means that the traditional money of this era is equivalent to the value of 4,000 yuan in the 21st century.  Millions of strings, wouldn't that be Well, I quickly got the answer, one million strings is equivalent to four billion yuan, then three million is equivalent to twelve billion yuan,  With so much money, he only used it to build a mansion.  When I got this value, I suddenly felt very powerless.  So much money is just to build a luxurious mansion, and it will be lost in the dust of history in a few years. If this money is used to develop science and technology, I am sure that at least China's science  Even if technology cannot lead the world for a thousand years, it will lead the world for five hundred years.  If nothing else is said, gunpowder has now begun to be used to make fireworks in small quantities. If this thing can be studied in depth and made into muskets and artillery, who in the world would dare to be like us in China?  If you can't beat him to death, it doesn't matter whether you are a Huns or a Turk, a Khitan or a Jin, a Mongolian or a Manchu.  "Don't tell me that you come in batches, even if you come all at once, you will still be killed by the firearms troops.  You must know that gunpowder has been used in the military since the late Tang Dynasty, from the time when gunpowder became a military material until the time when gunpowder disappeared from military use.  In AD 904, the first year of Tianyou's reign of Emperor Zhaozong of the Tang Dynasty, Yang Xingmi's army besieged Yuzhang. General Zheng Yi sent out fire to burn the dragon gate, and led his warriors to break into the city first, burning his body.  The flying fire mentioned here is the prototype of artillery, arrows, etc.  From this time until the gradual replacement of black powder with chemical gunpowder at the beginning of the 20th century and the end of the 19th century, it lasted for nearly a thousand years.  And when the firearms matured, the cavalry began to gradually withdraw from people's sight. The mobility and impact of the cavalry have become very powerless in the face of powerful firearms.  When I think that I have traveled to the Sui Dynasty, and that the following three dynasties, the Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties, will be invaded by nomads again and again, I am furious.  I really can’t muster the energy to appreciate the scenery.  "Brother Shi Lian, I have been with you for a long time, Marquis Xuangan." After walking for a long time, I suddenly heard a very affectionate call. I looked up and saw that about thirty steps ahead, there was the door of a flower hall hidden among the flowers and trees.  , a middle-aged man with a three-foot long beard and great appearance stood on the steps, smiling and raising his hand towards us.  Well, this guy is pretty good-looking, and he looks like the second brother from the Three Kingdoms period, but his face is not so red, and his eyes are not the squinting eyes. However, if this guy is cleaned up by a makeup artist, he will definitely look like Guan Guan.  The second brother's special type of actor.  "Haha, I'm late, please forgive me. Wuji, haven't you met Duke Chu yet?" The old uncle laughed, walked forward quickly, saluted Yang Xuangan, and waved to me.  Before I bowed down, I felt that my hands were already being supported by someone. When I looked up, I saw the tall and burly Yang Xuangan supporting my saluting arm.  He turned to his uncle and said angrily: "Brother Shilian, what do you mean? You and I are close friends. Since Wuji is your nephew, he is naturally Yang's junior. If you don't call me uncle, then you two,  Don't come into my mansion." After hearing this half-joking threat, the old uncle couldn't help but laugh heartily, nodded slightly to me, and I bowed respectfully to Yang Xuangan: "Wuji has met my uncle.  " "Well, okay, get up quickly. He is indeed the son of Chang Sun Sheng. Not only is he talented and talented, but he is also very brave in martial arts.??Seeing the confused look on my face, Yang Xuangan stroked his beard and laughed, patted my shoulder and said, "Yesterday, my dear brother went into the forest alone to hunt a tiger. I already know the reputation of hitting the tiger's eye with an arrow.  " Hearing this, I couldn't help sweating from the Lushan Waterfall. It seems that although the news media in this era is not developed, there are too many gossips. Yesterday, I was a tiger-hunting hero. Today, I am a tiger hunter.  It has already reached the ears of high-ranking officials like Yang Xuangan, which is really powerful.  —————————————————— After some greetings at the door, we entered the flower hall and saw dozens of maids standing on both sides of the hall, and three people were placed in the hall.  There are twelve plates of dishes and soups on each case table. Directly opposite the main table, several maids can be seen kneeling quietly with musical instruments in their arms.  Seeing this extravagant banquet scene, I couldn't help but secretly be stunned. Even eating in five-star hotels in later generations is not so awesome.  "Come on, come on, I heard that my good brother and nephew came together today, and I have already had some wine, so don't take it personally." After Yang Xuangan sat down, he motioned for us to sit down and said very modestly.  The old uncle laughed, picked up the wine cup on the table and saluted Yang Xuangan: "Brother, please don't say such things. If you really think so, then I will never dare to invite you to our humble house again."  Well, the old uncle is very funny, and although Yang Xuangan is a little bit showy, it can be seen that he is a very talkative person who also likes to make friends. When you get along with him, you will not feel that he will bring you trouble.  He uses his power to bully others, or it can be said that he is the father-in-law when he opens his mouth, and he is the minister when he keeps his mouth closed. No wonder he can have thousands of diners, and scholars from all over the world praise his generosity.  Well, at this time, following Yang Xuangan's instructions, the musicians began to play music. In ancient times, enjoying singing and dancing while eating was not only a habit, but also a custom. Remember, I  When the Internet was circulating, I once read a record about the Tang Dynasty. It actually had regulations on how many musicians could play there during each meal for the princes and princes.  It can be seen that ancient times attached great importance to music. Even Kong Laoer had to play six arts, and the second one was music.  Well, the ditty is good, and the old uncle seems to be worthy of being a close friend of Yang Xuangan. He started chatting as soon as they met. Even my nephew seemed to have forgotten it. Well, it doesn’t matter to me. Anyway, there are fine wines, delicious food, and even some  There is a maid who serves wine. Well, although this girl is not very beautiful, she can at least be considered to be of middle or upper level. There are more than 20 maids in the hall, including the music maid, and they all have different looks.  Of course, having characteristics does not mean that they look crooked or cracked.
