North and South groceries

Regarding their activity of enjoying the snow in pajamas this time, many gentlemen of the gentry said that this was too stupid and too cheeky, and that young people nowadays are doing everything they can to gain fame.

However, no matter how low the evaluation was, it still stood in the way in the days to come, and pajamas sprang up everywhere in Chang'an City one after another.The gentlemen who once criticized him for his words were also pulled into the bullock cart for various reasons. Let's talk about this, it is really a bit helpless.

No matter how stupid the trend is, it should be followed or not.

However, according to the people in the city, the pajama parties in the back are either because the participants are too old to be worth seeing, or they are from mediocre backgrounds that are not high enough, or they are too low-value to imitate.

What people talk about the most is the pajama snow viewing organized by Du Shiwulang.What kind of person is Du Xi? When he organizes such an event, how can he invite those who are not romantic enough?

Among them, Qiao Junlin was the one with the lowest family background and the youngest age. It just so happened that he was the one who first suggested this event to Du Xi.

After this incident, Du Xi took a more optimistic view of Qiao Junlin. This kid is good, he has a quick mind, and he is good-looking. Now he is a student of Taixue again, and he has also developed a specialty in sword dancing. Let's go with him If you can't play with the price, the key is that Luo Coffin Board can give them some good things from time to time.

To say that the biggest beneficiary of this pajama party craze... probably Luo Yong?

After Chang'an City became lively, many people flocked to Xipo Village to buy goose down pajamas. The pajamas made by Luo Yong were not enough to sell. In the end, they had no choice but to sell goose down directly. The price is not cheap, he has to sell so much goose down to make a pajamas, but those people still carry bags of goose down on their car as if they don't want money.

It is absolutely not an exaggeration to say that the coffin board's hands become weak after receiving the money. It is really a sore arm. The usual money is as heavy as six or seven catties. He does not know how to collect it all day long. How much.

The two of Si Niang and Wu Lang watched their elder brothers earn money so boldly, and they were envious in their hearts. They worked so hard to carve so many engravings, and they only earned those. Mistakes, too many brochures were printed, and the cost was suppressed.

Then look at their brothers again!Well……

The expressions of envy and admiration of these two people are too obvious, it is difficult for Luo Yong not to see it, and he also finds it a bit funny.

If their bookstore wants to change the status quo, Luo Yong is not helpless. He just thinks that these two children are still too young, and they can relax for a few more years. as hard.

Luo used the money he earned this time, except for a small part of which could be used to pay off debts, and most of the rest had to be spent on the threshing machine.

In the winter, the threshing machine workshop did not stop working. The craftsmen were working hard every day, making one after another threshing machine. At this time, it was snowing everywhere, and it was not easy to send it out. By the beginning of next spring, they should be able to send out all the remaining threshing machines. Since then, they have sent all the local villages in Hedong Road.

At that time, Luo Yong planned to put the road construction on the agenda. Right now they had too many things on hand, and they really couldn't allocate so many people to do it.

Years later, Wang Dang and his group finally came back, and they came with them, as well as those from the Zhao family who came to transport canned food.

During this period of time, because Zhao Chen was worried about his canned pears, he stayed in the warehouse they rented all day in Lishi County.

On the day Zhao Chen and his party left, Luo Yong went to the county to deliver them, and also sent them some goose down products to take back, and asked them to help bring some canned goods and a few big goose down quilts to Erniang and the others.

As for the pajamas, Luo Yong didn't prepare them for them. Erniang and the others were sitting and doing business in Liangzhou City, and they couldn't wait to be so busy every day. How could they have the time to sit on the kang so leisurely and enjoy life? Don't sleep on the pillow.

"Why did you take so long to come back this time?" Back in the village, at dusk, Luo Yong saw that Wang Dang and those people were eating in Xu's guest house, so he went in and sat down.

"Hey, don't mention it. I heard that there is a lot of cashmere on the grassland after winter. Many grassland people don't like to go to the city to sell cashmere. Many vendors go to the grassland to collect cashmere. The price is lower than that in the city. We went too, but we left Wrong way, almost couldn’t come back.” After Wang Dang said this, he picked up his rice bowl and drank a big mouthful of dumpling soup, as if he still had lingering fears.

"Well, why did you get lost?" Xu Dalang's daughter-in-law just came up with a large plate of braised mutton at this time, and she also said something after hearing this.

"You don't know, the prairie, tsk, that's not a prairie, it's full of rocks and sand, not much grass, you can see that the front and back are similar, and it turns when you walk, and you don't know where it is. Where?" said a brother of Wang Dang.

"Is everyone alright?" Xu Dalang's wife asked.

"It's nothing. There are two brothers who are weak and can't bear it. No, they didn't come back this time. They stayed in Liangzhou City to cultivate." Wang Dang replied.

"It's good that people are fine." Many people present said so.

"It's okay, what can be the matter." Wang Dang said and called Apu again: "Apu, serve us another two plates of dumplings."

"Hey." The black Apu responded, and hurried to the kitchen again.

"Sanlang, come here, don't just sit still, take your chopsticks and eat with us." Wang Dang greeted Luo Yong to eat together.

"You really earned a lot this time?" Luo Yong joked.He was not polite, asked a child from the Xu family to ask for a set of bowls and chopsticks, and then sat next to him and ate. He went to Lishi County, and he was really hungry at the moment.

"Earning is earning a little bit, but this time we brothers are really scared, next time we will never dare to make such a rash move..."

"I won't talk about the past, hey, eat vegetables and eat vegetables."

"..."

These people came to Xipo Village yesterday evening. At that time, many people fell asleep after returning home, and slept until noon today before getting up to clean up. Now everyone will come out to have a good meal together, which is lively and lively.

Luo Yong ate with them, and asked a few words about Erniang and others' current situation from time to time. These people said that Erniang was very good, and she got the name of Luo Suxin, so she was welcome to see her in Liangzhou City.

·

Erniang and the others are indeed quite good here. A while ago, Zhao’s guest house opened, and their sister’s restaurant also opened together. The business in the restaurant is not bad, but it is not as good as what Erniang originally envisioned. points are different.

In Liangzhou, apart from a few wealthy local merchants, those caravans that come and go have the strongest spending power. It can be said that most of the economy of Liangzhou city is driven by passing caravans.

However, at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, in the 11th year of the [-]th year of Zhenguan, the business in the west was not so developed. In the past two years, because of the rise of cashmere and soap industries, many merchants from the Central Plains came to buy from them. , the situation is relatively better. Two years ago, this Liangzhou city was a bit more desolate than it is now.

The current degree of commercial activity is not enough to make the local people rich. After Er Niang and the others opened the food shop, they clearly felt that, except for some local merchants and passing caravans, most residents in the city have very low spending power. limited.

Erniang and the others opened up a food shop, and many children on this street went straight to this place, but there were very few people who were really willing to spend money to buy something for their children.

So even if my sister's restaurant business is good, one restaurant and one tofu shop are enough for Luo Erniang to be busy all day long, but she always feels a little bit disappointed in her heart.

I remember that when I was in Xipo Village, Sanlang first taught the people in the village how to make tofu, and after every household earned some money, they introduced such things as jujube bean cake.

At that time, she remembered that although the villagers in the village still cared about money, they were more or less willing to buy some for their children to satisfy their hunger, and some bought them back to honor the elderly.At that time, they didn't have a special egg beater at home, and they still beat it with chopsticks. Every time they made date bean cakes, they were very hard work, but no matter how hard they worked, they were always happy in their hearts, not like they are now.

But Luo Erniang can't teach people how to make tofu like Luo Yong, not to mention what will happen when this craft is spread on a large scale, just say that in such a big Liangzhou city, every household makes tofu, and the tofu made should be Where to sell it?

After much deliberation, Er Niang thinks that cashmere is the thing that can really make money for the people in this place. The cashmere business here is very prosperous, but a lot of cashmere is only processed briefly or even without any processing. I went elsewhere. Except for some merchants selling cashmere, the local people did not share much benefit from the process of buying and selling cashmere.

So, can she set up a workshop for processing cashmere sweaters and trousers here?

·

After dinner, Luo Yong bid farewell to Wang Dang and others and returned home, sat under the oil lamp, and took out the letter Erniang had entrusted to bring over this time to read it again.

Er Niang didn't spend much time on learning characters before, but now this letter is quite decent, I don't know if she got help from others or what, but the handwriting is still hers.

Erniang wanted to set up a sweater workshop in Liangzhou City, so she wrote to ask Luo Yong what he meant. Luo Yong's reply letter was already on the way at this time, and she put it in the linen pocket with the cashmere quilt, because she was worried that the goods would be on the way. In addition, he asked Zhao Chen to deliver a message for him.

"The cashmere sweater and trousers workshop is very good. Just let go of your hands and feet to run it. If you encounter any difficulties, then ask someone to send a message back. If you are short of money, just go to Zhao Dalang to get it."

Zhao Dalang: ...
