North and South groceries

In the winter of this year, Feng Gou'er from Xipo Village came to Chang'an City following a convoy of North and South groceries.

Feng Gou'er has now grown into a young man, quite shy, with a childish smile, and a very fair appearance. He doesn't have the image of a dirty boy from before, but he is a little boy from a good family. Your appearance.

Feng Gou'er and Wu Lang stood together and asked others to guess who was the one who had suffered more in the past. They would definitely choose Wu Lang.

The two of them were acquainted in the past, and they played well. Feng Gou'er had just arrived in Chang'an City for a few days, Luo Yong asked him to live in the county lord's mansion, and Wu Lang's friends often came to play, Feng Gou'er was good at arithmetic, After several rounds of competition, those little gentlemen have no objection.

These young people love to talk and joke, these days they always say that Wu Lang and Feng Gou are traveling together, and everyone who sees them on the road will probably think that Wu Lang is Feng Gou's servant.

"You said that your brothers and sisters are officials, and those who are in business are in business. You want money and money, and you want a good status. Why don't you have any aura?"

"Exactly, there is also an elder sister who is the head of the county, which is better than many people in Chang'an City."

"Look at how powerful those sisters of yours are."

"Even Liu Lang is stronger than you. I heard that when the little ladies in the city are together, they often mention your Liu Lang."

"Your Liulang is indeed a pleasing look."

"..."

Goro sat on the porch, peeling the grapefruit, and listening to these people slandering himself, he didn't really care, but he didn't hear their evaluation of Luo Yong after listening for a long time, so he asked, "Where is my elder brother? What does brother look like?"

Those few people heard about it, and after thinking for a while, someone said: "It is reasonable to say that your elder brother is not bad in appearance, and his bearing is not bad, but he looks like a coffin board."

Luo Yong is indeed in good shape. When he just came back from Longxi earlier, he looked a bit dark and thin, and his temperament was also sharp.

Now that he has been in Chang'an City for a year, he himself knows how to be lazy and dodge. Although there are many things to do, he can't be called very hard-working. Just taking care of him like this, his appearance is more and more in line with the public's aesthetics.

But it's useless, even if he is good-looking, those officials and ministers will not miss him in the early court, and those big and small families who should hate him still hate him.

Recently, many people wanted to fill Luo Yong's machine workshop in Chang'an City, but the threshold was too high and it was difficult to get in. After all this trouble, some people will inevitably complain, so recently There are many people who scold Luo Yong.

"In the past, if someone said that your elder brother was not good, I could help to refute a few words, but now I have to pretend that I didn't hear it. There are too many, and I really can't control it."

"The common people love your elder brother very much, and wish they could praise him like that Bodhisattva."

"It's not good to exaggerate too much. Tell your elder brother to be careful about this, lest someone will make a fuss behind his back."

"Give me a piece of grapefruit."

At this time, Goro peeled a grapefruit, and these young people gathered together to share the grapefruit.

This pomelo is a fruit from the south, and the price is very expensive. Some of them are of higher birth, and after one winter, there are not many grapefruits in the house, let alone the other few who are of lower birth.

Goro's elder sisters were able to make a lot of money, and those in the family almost never stopped eating. It's ashamed to say that this is one of the reasons why they often come to the county lord's mansion.

It was cold in winter, but these young people couldn't stay in the house, they gathered in the porch and finished eating the grapefruit, then they said they wanted to go out to play, and brought Qiniang Feng Gou's five pairs of Mai Qing with them.

The kid from Hou Lin's family also wanted to follow, but he was too young, his mother refused to let him run outside casually, and Qiniang and others didn't like to take him, so these big hula la ran away, five pairs He and Mai Qing also ran with these people, but the boy from Hou Lin's family couldn't keep up, so he cried from behind.

A sweeping woman in the yard saw her, she smiled and coaxed him, after a while Huang Xianglan also came out of the house, took him by the hand and led him into the house.

That kid even sued his aunt, saying that Qiniang's sister was bad, and he would not play with her in the future.

"This kid is also funny. The big group of people just said that Qiniang is bad." Ah Zhi is doing needlework with Huang Xianglan here at this time, listening to him babbling and complaining, he also thinks it is a bit funny .

"After a while, I'll go find Qiniang to play." Even if it's her own son, Huang Xianglan doesn't take him seriously.

"I love to cry a little bit, what will happen in the future?"

"Don't grow into a crying bag."

"It's not possible. Look at Feng Gou, he was not like this before. Seeing him this time, he has changed a lot..."

"I heard that he is also from Xipo Village..."

"Exactly..."

In this cold day, some people like to do needlework in a warm room, and some people like to run around outside. No matter which one it is, life is always more comfortable.

As for the people at Roche Machine Workshop, they are really suffering.

Luo Yong has recently created a premium class on the basis of class A. There is no limit on the number of people in this class, which means that there will never be a situation where the requirements are lowered in order to make up the number of people.

At present, there are less than ten people in this class, and they are all top seedlings in the machine workshop. Even Shi Ba Niang, who is quite talented and famous, was not selected this time because she entered the Luo's machine workshop. The time is too short, and the understanding of equipment is still lacking.

Feng Gou's visit to Chang'an City this time was also to enter Luo's Machine Workshop.

In the summer, when Luo Yong heard that Granny Feng had passed away, he thought of Feng Gou, asked someone to bring a letter back, and asked him if he would like to come to the machine workshop in Chang'an City, so he came here.

Feng Gou didn't have a decent name before. Granny Feng called him Gou'er in order to give him a humble name to support him. Later, after he learned some words, he planned to give himself a proper name. I didn't know what word to use, so I finally chose Feng Gou.

When I first arrived in Chang'an City, I came to the county lord's mansion, talked to Luo Sanlang, and told him my name. I was a little nervous at first, but Sanlang said:

"That's right, the name is just a surrogate name. If you are promising in the future, this name will also be promising."

Hearing what he said, Feng Gou became very happy.

Since he was a child, he felt that Luo Yong was a very remarkable person. Apart from a crazy grandma, he didn't have any serious elders to rely on, so he secretly regarded Luo Yong as his own father and brother in his heart. Take this as his spiritual reliance, and Luo Yong has never let him down.

When Feng Gou first came to Chang'an City these days, Luo Yong told him to live in the county lord's mansion first.

In winter, the weather was cold, and the Bai family school often had holidays, so it happened that Wulang and the others took him around the city of Chang'an. When he went to the machine workshop, he might not have such free time again.

When there is plenty of time, Goro and the others like to go to the station outside the city.

The railway track in Chang'an City goes all the way to Luoyang, and there are many pedestrians and goods coming and going every day. After autumn, the transportation is extremely busy, and it is also very busy in winter.

Many children from the city gather here, and some children from poor families will pick up things that have fallen from the car. Most of the things that can be left behind are nothing valuable, nothing more than some fruits, vegetables and grains.

Goro and the others came here mainly to visit the bazaar. Not far from the station, there is a wild market formed by consignors and buyers. There are many goods traded there every day. There are also some farmers selling goods here, and the prices are often slightly lower than those in the city.

The goods coming and going at the station here often include their Luo family's goods. In the past, it was mainly the ingredients transported back to Chang'an City by my sister's food shop.

After the Double Ninth Festival this year, the North and South Grocery branch opened in Luoyang. There is a lot of goods exchange between the two stores in Chang'an and Luoyang. Most of the goods are transported by water, and a small part of goods will be transported by railway.

Recently, the face towels of various fabrics and colors produced by Erniang's face towel workshop are also very popular in Luoyang, and are even sold by some merchants to Jiangnan and other places. I heard a letter from the person from the sister's restaurant over there. Said that this kind of face towel is currently very expensive in their Jiangnan side.

The face towels produced by this face towel workshop in Chang'an City are even more sophisticated in craftsmanship than those in Changle County.

On the one hand, it is reflected in the patterns and styles. The needleworkers in Chang'an City are considered to be leading in the country. Naturally, various patterns and styles are indispensable. As long as Er Niang pays, others can draw with her. A lot of convenience.

On the other hand, in terms of materials, in addition to white folds, they also used cashmere and silk this time. Which material is used for which pattern, and the proportion of the material is carefully designed.

Goro and the others often hang out at the station, and sometimes they are very happy when they see their own goods coming in and out.

When Feng Gou first came to Chang'an City, he was already shocked by the grand scale of Chang'an City. At this time, he was taken to the station by Goro and the others, and he felt how huge the daily cargo transportation volume in Chang'an City is.

The sky on this day was a little gloomy, with occasional cold winds howling, and there were so many vehicles, horses, pedestrians, and goods in front of us that there seemed to be no end in sight.

"Did you see that carriage?" Qiniang said to Feng Gouyan, shrinking her neck.

"No." Feng Gou responded.

"The ones with that mark on the wheel are the wheels made by Yin's wheel shop, and the axle. The mark on the axle is small, so you have to look closely to see it." Qiniang said to him.

"En." Feng Gou nodded seriously.

"There are still many carriages. Although they are not marked with our logo, they actually use some of our parts. Most of them are purchased from North and South Groceries." Because Feng Gou always listens seriously, Wu Lang and the others are also very willing to follow He said this.

"En." Feng Gou still nodded.

"The craftsmen in the palace also come to our North and South groceries to buy goods."

"There are also craftsmen in the palace?"

"Of course there are. There are craftsmen from the palace on the side of the engineering school. I heard that the craftsmanship is very good."

"It was chosen well, that's why it's remarkable, and I heard it's very unusual."

"Dog, do you want to be a craftsman in the future?"

"Ah."

"It's hard work at the machine shop, and the homework is heavy."

"Not afraid."

"You really want to be a craftsman?"

"Ah."

Feng Gou'er felt that he would definitely be a craftsman in the future, but Luo Yong had already started copying high school math textbooks for them.

He hadn't even copied half of the textbooks in the first volume of senior high school, and he had already spent several days of his spare time. After copying this one, there are many more books waiting for him to copy. When will it be the first time to copy.

Thinking about the pile of medical books I dumped to Sun Simiao back then, I don't know how they finished copying them?It's really not easy.
