Chapter 66: The eighth year of Zhenguan


Luo Yong used to be too lazy to take care of these short-term parents.

Living in the twenty-first century, in that town, he just closed the door and lived his own life, letting others say whatever they wanted, as long as he didn't take them seriously, it didn't hurt him anyway.

Things are very different now.

If a person's reputation is bad, even if he goes out to buy some salt, the salt seller might give you a look, and he might get spit on when he walks on the street.

Although the aunt can be considered smart, she is still a little younger after all.

As the saying goes, people become smarter as they live.

With all the twists and turns, she obviously can't beat those in the Lin family.

The elder, if Luo Yong hadn't stood up for her this time, she would have suffered a loss.

If we just talk about those small thoughts, not to mention Aunt Luo, even Luo Yong may not be the opponent of the two families of the Lin family.

He is the only one in Xipo Village who is respected by everyone now, and his words are listened to and believed by others.

If not, it might not be that easy just based on these few words.

If what he said in the village that day reached the ears of Father Lin and Mother Lin, they probably wouldn't have any trouble with Aunt Luo.

Luo Yong didn't want to get involved with the right and wrong in the Lin family.

He just wanted Aunt Luo not to suffer.

As soon as Aunt Luo's matter came to an end, Xu Erlang and others started stirring up soil at the entrance of the village.

Originally, this cold winter month was not suitable for groundbreaking, but the Xu family was really impatient.

Now there are many noble people coming to Lishi County, and the Luo family's Dongpo Pork is in boom, so one day earlier If you build the guesthouse, you will be able to earn money sooner.

The Xu family recruited workers in the city, and each person was promised two meals of dry food per day, and a bucket of grain for two days of work.

Many people in the city are also rushing to go.

Even though the situation at home this year is much better than in previous years, and they can make some income by making bamboo chains and wool felt mats, many people are still reluctant to spend money to go.

To buy food, in the eyes of the people nowadays, Kaiyuan Tongbao is a very precious thing.

Hard currency is hard to earn, so many people are reluctant to spend it.

At this time, I heard that there was another place to earn food, so I naturally wanted to go.

In addition, the young and strong people in the family are often the best able to eat, and they could still provide enough food for them.

Xu Erlang only hired those who were strong and loyal, and he always selected twenty or thirty people.

The twenty or thirty young men digging foundations and breaking mud slabs were busy outside the village entrance.

People in Xipo Village also heard that they were going to build guesthouses there, and they knew it was Luo Yong's house.

Disciple, no one has any objections.

Although some people are worried that no one will stay at their house again after his guest house is repaired, most villagers are still more tolerant.

When their guest house is built, if some merchants who buy dried tofu and frozen tofu from them can stay in this guest house, wouldn't they be able to save the cost of delivering goods to the city?

Four cents, how much money can you save throughout the year?

Thinking of this, many people in Xipo Village are worried about those men with Dinghu.

But the Dinghu man was not afraid.

The goatee Yang Dalang had already said to Wang Dang and others: "When their guest house is built, if there are many merchants coming and going, we will still work as porters.

I think There are often nobles from Chang'an coming and going here, so giving money must be easier than ordinary merchants. " And because they are currently living in the courtyard built by the Xu brothers and others, they owe a favor.

In the past few days, these Dinghu men will go over to help when they have free time.

Hot water and mud were used to bake the foundation, and the foundation was dug deep and wide.

The Xu family was indeed very generous.

Last year, the three brothers from the Xu family went to Taiyuan City to make kangs for people, and now they are making wool felt cushions for Luo Sanlang.

I heard that the three brothers are all very good at craftsmanship.

If the three of them work together, they can make money at such a fast rate.

How can others come up to it?

Those men with beards saw the scene of the Xu family brothers working vigorously in their careers, and their hearts were filled with excitement.

Why didn't they want to start their careers?

Luo Yong would go over to take a look at the construction site at the entrance of the village from time to time.

Having just experienced what happened to the Lin family, and looking at the Xu family brothers again, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart.

The old man of the Xu family is not a very smart and capable person, but he has always been generous when it comes to treating his children.

These children in his family are also sensible and can share their burdens with their parents at a young age.

When they grow up, the brothers and sisters are still very united. .

They both work hard to raise their children, but the current situation of the two families is completely different.

Apart from some innate tendencies, it is actually the couple of the Lin family who are too partial.

Now that the matter has come to this, there is no other way but to separate the family.

The old couple didn't seem to be willing to let go easily.

Luo Yong also hoped that the Xu family's guest house could be repaired soon, and then he could get Aunt Luo and Lin Wulang out of the Lin family's yard early.

On the nineteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Luo Yong saw Yang Dalang at the construction site and said to him: "In the coldest month of winter, there are gradually fewer merchants coming to Lishi County to purchase goods.

I see you have people idle in the courtyard every day these days.

Why don't you take some fermented bean curd and other things from me and sell them in Dinghu County?

"When you come back, bring me some dates, but you don't have to sell them to me at Dinghu's price.

As long as they are cheaper than those in Lishi County, I will buy them from you."

"That's what I have in mind.

Boss Wang went to the city today and has not come back yet.

I will talk to him when he comes back."

Yang Dalang never competed with his brothers for work or money.

He just liked to find some easy jobs in the village, killing pigs and cleaning pig pens.

As a lonely man, he had no wife, children or children to support. , Secondly, his body has been injured before, and he doesn't have as good a foundation as others.

"I'm going to Dinghu County.

Is there a place to stay on the way?"

Luo Yong asked him.

In the coldest month of winter, it would be really difficult if we couldn't find a place to stay on the road.

"Of course there are.

I often work as porters with others, and we are all familiar with this road."

Hedong Road is not a wild place.

No matter how small the population is, you can always find a place to stay after walking for a day. , fires and hot water are naturally available, and the price is not expensive.

In some remote villages, the owner only needs to pay a few cents, and the host will be very happy.

The reason why Luo Yong mentioned this matter to Yang Dalang was because he recently discovered that the dates in Dinghu County were not only cheaper than those here, but also generally a little sweeter than those here.

When the Xu family's guest house was built, Luo Yong asked Aunt Luo and Lin Wulang to make jujube cakes and Dongpo meat and sell them for money.

From now on, the production of jujube cakes is no longer limited to the Friday days.

It can also be made on weekdays.

It is still sold at a penny a piece on the Friday days.

The price can be slightly higher on weekdays.

If there are Rich merchants and nobles will not care about the little price difference.

If they are poor and frugal, they will just wait for the five days.

Aunt Luo has always known how to make the jujube cake.

Every time she came to help, Luo Yong never hid it from her.

Lin Wulang is an honest person.

He will do whatever he is told.

He will not look at or ask any unnecessary questions.

He even knows the step of beating eggs.

The making of jujube cake is actually no longer important to him.

What a secret.

Even so, when Father Lin and Mother Lin secretly asked him if he could make cakes behind his aunt's back, he said no and refused to say more.

This honest man is also very stubborn in certain matters, and most people would not be able to break him off easily.

It is precisely because of this that Luo Yong can safely leave this matter to him and his aunt this time, because he can also see that although his brother-in-law is more honest, he is rarely principled and not afraid.

He will be coaxed away with sweet words.

"Boss, I think this deal can be done."

That night, Yang Dalang told Wang Dang and others about Luo Yong's proposal.

"Yes, boss, we were at a disadvantage in the past because we were not familiar with the place.

Now we are familiar with Lishi County.

It is close to home and we have an acquaintance like Luo Sanlang.

Between these two It's definitely safe to run some small business between places."

After Yang Dalang said this, other brothers immediately agreed.

"Earlier in Dinghu County, I heard about Luo Sanlang's name, and some people took fermented bean curd and other items from him and sold them there.

Although the road was closer, they couldn't sell them at such a high price, but there was always a profit, right?

" "It's appropriate to bring some dates to sell to him when you come back.

He wants as much as he has.

He doesn't pick and choose, so it's okay to have them at a lower price than the market price."

"In Dinghu County, there are also some merchants who travel between Chang'an City and the northwest region.

We transport fermented bean curd and other products from here to Dinghu County.

If they can buy it, they can directly transport the goods south or north.

Wouldn't it be convenient?

" "You're thinking so far ahead before the deal is done."

"No matter what, you won't lose money on this deal, right?"

"Do a good job on this deal" Having made up their minds, the brothers stopped delaying and went to the villagers that night to buy some dried tofu and frozen tofu, and then went to Luo's courtyard to buy fermented bean curd and other items.

Luo Yong knew that these people didn't have much money, so he said that they could just sell the fermented bean curd and miso paste first, and when the money came from selling it, they could just exchange it for dates for him.

Wang Dang and his brothers were naturally very grateful.

Although they had been traveling in the wind and snow these days, they had earned some money and food, but the things from Luo Sanlang's family were not cheap.

A jar of fermented bean curd cost five cents.

Money, the brothers emptied their pockets, and they were afraid they wouldn't be able to buy a few cans.

"I'm leaving tomorrow," Luo Yong asked them.

"Load the car tonight and ask my mother-in-law to prepare some dry food.

We will leave early tomorrow morning."

Wang Dangyan said.

Early the next morning, Luo Yong saw that it was snowing again outside, and he quickly ran down the slope to take a look at the piglets he had just bought.

He felt relieved when he saw that they were all alive and well.

On that slope, Wang Dang's wife came down the slope carrying two buckets, as if she was going to carry water.

When she got off the dirt slope in front of Luo's courtyard and walked to the intersection, she met Luo Yong, and Luo Yong Asked her: "It's snowing heavily.

Will Wang Dalang still leave today?"

"We left before dawn."

Wang Dang's wife pointed in the direction of the village entrance and said with a smile.

Luo Yong turned his head and looked towards the entrance of the village, only to see the cold wind howling, and his field of vision was filled with white.
