In the third month of the lunar calendar, the spring plowing season is about to begin.
Luo Yong, a disciple who went to Chang'an City all those years ago, also followed the caravan of Ma's Trading Company and returned all the way from Chang'an City to Lishi County.
These people went to Chang'an City last autumn and gained a lot of knowledge along the way.
When they arrived in Chang'an City, they seemed to have been opened to a new world.
Now that they are back in their hometown, there is something in their hearts that they want to show off. meaning.
When they came back, they found that Lishi County, which they hadn't seen for just a few months, was much more lively than when they left.
The Xu brothers even opened such a large guest house at the entrance of Xipo Village.
Luo Yong learned that they would come to Xipo Village that day, so he booked two banquets at the Xu family guest house early.
"There are actually several accents in this hall.
I was so stunned just now that I thought I was in a guest house in Chang'an City."
During the dinner, one of Luo Yong's disciples said with emotion.
Although it is just a hometown guest house, there are merchants in this hall from all over the country.
When they speak, the accents from different places are mixed.
Some people simply talk in their hometown dialect so loudly that the locals can't understand it at all.
Understand what they are saying.
"Nothing can compare with the guesthouses in Chang'an City."
Xu Dalang smiled a little cautiously.
"There's nothing that can't be compared.
Chang'an City also has small guesthouses."
"Even though that place is a small guest house, the price is not cheap.
When we first went there, fortunately, Ma Jiulang helped us find a small courtyard with a reasonable price to stay in."
"Ma Jiulang is back with you this time?"
Luo Yong asked.
"No."
A disciple replied: "He left Chang'an with us.
After passing Tongguan, he went all the way east.
He said he wanted to visit the Jiangnan area."
"Master, have you ever heard that there are also a large number of Yan'erfei sold to the Jiangnan area in Lu Di?"
Another disciple said.
"I haven't heard much about it."
Luo Yong heard this matter mentioned by his disciples before, but he didn't pay much attention to it after that.
Now it seems that there is new news.
"I heard from a businessman in Chang'an City who often travels to the Jiangnan area that Yanerfei of Nalu Real Estate does not use dianthus chains, but mostly pottery chains."
The disciple said.
"Ceramic chains can also bear loads."
Before Luo Yong could say anything, Xu Sanlang couldn't help it.
Ceramics were not that strong in their impression.
"It's not very good, so there are many merchants who collect bamboo chains from Chang'an City and resell them to the Jiangnan area.
Their cars can be used just as well if they replace them with our chains."
Another disciple next to him explained.
Obviously, these disciples who went to Chang'an City had studied and discussed this issue together before, and they all knew it well.
"Tsk, they made it according to our size on purpose," someone said immediately with dissatisfaction.
"The pottery chain is not easy to use, so they haven't thought of any solution."
Luo Yong asked.
"I heard that the production of iron chains is being studied.

However, the parts of the chains are small and difficult to cast.
Currently, some have been made, but the price is quite high.
Generally, few people can afford them."
A disciple who knew about the matter said.
"That's fine."
Luo Yong nodded and said, "When their technology for making iron chains matures, we can also buy iron chains from them."
It seems that the Qian brothers are not just copying other people's technology.
They also have a certain spirit of research and enterprising.
No matter how they develop it, to be honest, Luo Yong doesn't want to stand out at all.
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.
But if there are several big trees growing side by side in the same forest, the situation will naturally be much better.
The master and disciples ate wine and food in the Xu family guest house and talked about their experiences.
The meal lasted from afternoon to evening, and then they dispersed.
After eating, Luo Yong naturally wanted to go back to his courtyard to rest, and his disciples were temporarily accommodated in the Xu family guest house.
The yard of the Xujia Guest House is large enough and has enough guest rooms.
Luo Yong rented a few Datong shops for his disciples to live in.
After a period of time, these disciples will stay here in Xipo Village to help Luo Yong with farm work, and their food and accommodation will be in the Xujia Guest House.
After the house was settled, Luo Yong provided the money.
The Xu family brothers initially refused to take it, but Luo Yong insisted on giving it.
With such a large group of young people needing food and drink, how could the Xu family pay for it, and it was not like helping the Xu family with their work.
It's just that the price is still discounted.
Basically, the daily turnover of Aunt Luo and his wife is enough to cover their daily expenses.
After a period of time, thick smoke billowed everywhere in Xipo Village and outside the village.
People in a radius of dozens of miles knew that it was the disciples of Luo Sanlang's family who were burning soil.
Wang Dang and others have recently dug a lot of pits, and now they just need to fill them with fertilizer and plant saplings in them.
It is not easy to use the freshly burned earth manure, but it needs to be put away to remove the heat.
Fortunately, Luo Yong had stored a lot of it last autumn.
In addition, he did not plant winter wheat last year, so these fertilizers are just right now.
They are all used to plant saplings.
The closer to the Qingming Festival, the more uncertain Luo Yong became.
He didn't know whether the merchants who signed the contract with him last year would be able to come this year.
These days, transportation is inconvenient and information is limited.
Even if the other party breaks the contract, Luo Yong can't do anything with them.
He can't go all the way to argue with them, and he may not be able to find anyone.
After waiting and waiting, until mid-March, a caravan carrying saplings finally arrived in Lishi County.
Luo Yong was very happy after hearing the news and ran all the way to greet him on his donkey.
Also coming with those people was Ma Silang from the Ma family, Ma Feiyang's brother.
The uncles in the Ma family have many brothers.
Of the two of them, one is ranked fourth and the other is ninth.
This is when men and women are ranked separately.
If they were put together, there would be more.
Ma Silang came here just to pay Luo Yong.
Some time ago, Luo Yong found the Ma family in Lishi County and negotiated with them about borrowing money.
The Ma family promised to arrange for people to follow them to pay when the merchants transporting saplings arrived.
Now Ma Silang is here. .

The reason why he did not lend the money to Luo Yong in advance was because there were no adults in the Luo family and they lived in a sparsely populated area at the entrance of the village.
He was afraid that some people would know that his family had a lot of money and they would have evil thoughts.
"You must have had a hard time traveling all the way.
I have prepared drinks at the Xu family guest house in front.
Let's go there to have a rest first."
Looking at the carts of Duzhong saplings with buds in their leaves, Luo Yong The smile on his face really couldn't stop.
"Luo Sanlang, you're welcome."
The merchant walking in front also smiled and bowed his hand to Luo Yong.
It was indeed a hard journey, and it would be great to have ready-made drinks to entertain him.
"Excuse me, Silang, please follow me on this trip."
After a few words of greeting with the merchant, Luo Yong said hello to Ma Silang again.
"No trouble, no trouble."
Masiro smiled.
Although he came to pay, he was still the first.
This was almost equivalent to showing those people in the city that their Ma family was the first in line in front of Luo Sanlang.
Despite his young age, Luo Sanlang is quite famous.
His future development is worth looking forward to, and the Ma family is very willing to invest.
Although the Eucommia sapling thing this time sounds a bit unreliable, it is unknown whether Luo Sanlang may have any other tricks.
Besides, it doesn't matter even if he loses money.
The most he can do is to pay back the money slowly.
Luo Sanlang still has some money in hand.
As for those good things, are you still worried that he can't afford them?
The Xu family guesthouse is located a little in front of the entrance of Xipo Village.
It is located in the Gaomen Courtyard and is particularly conspicuous in this desolate countryside.
There is a tall building in front of the courtyard, a hall downstairs, and a very spacious courtyard in the back.
It is a square guest house that is very clean.
It gives a good first impression, and the prices are fair.
The store brothers look like they are decent people.
People and businessmen who passed by were also very comfortable living here.
At this time, several tables of food have been placed in the hall, and no one pays attention to the order of serving.
Regardless of whether they are hot or cold dishes, they just place a large table full of food.
For the porters who have been on the road for more than a month, they are so tired.
To me, it feels very rich just by looking at it.
"Let's light the saplings first," the merchant said.
"Okay, let's light the saplings first."
Luo Yongzhi knew that he was worried that someone would steal the saplings while eating.
It was not easy to transport the saplings.
It was a long way from Qinling Mountains to Lishi County, so he should be careful.
After ordering the saplings and paying for the goods at the previously agreed price, Luo Yong also fulfilled his promise and signed an ordering contract for cashmere sweaters and trousers with the other party.
Then they sat down to eat.
The porters didn't care about that much.
After counting the saplings, they just ate themselves first.
A group of people ate Haise's food.
After eating, the guesthouse also provided them with hot water for bathing.
Luo Yong saw that these people were really dirty, so he asked Lin Wulang to go to Luo's yard and bring him a piece of soap.

A piece of stinky soap that looked like a candy cake was cut into many small pieces on the table, and each person gave them a small piece.
Luo Yong has been doing it slowly recently and has also accumulated some soap at home.
He has made these pieces of soap into candy cakes and placed them on the shelves.
He is not in a hurry to sell them.
When it comes to selling them, his little stock is not enough. of.
At this time, he brought a wet cloth over and demonstrated to everyone how to use the soap.
It was easy to use.
Although it was the first time he came into contact with it, he understood it immediately after seeing it, so everyone took a piece to take a bath.
"This stinky soap is really useful."
The porters all left, but the merchant and several of his close relatives did not leave in a hurry.
Businessmen are always very keen on business opportunities.
"Try it."
Luo Yong handed him the soapy wet cloth on his hand.
The merchant didn't think much, took the wet cloth and wiped the back of his hand.
Among their group of people, he was one of the cleanest, so he expected that nothing could be wiped off, but in the end "" Looking at the cloth with a large piece of black in the middle, even though he was nearly fifty years old and had seen countless scenes since he was a businessman, he couldn't help but feel his face turn red and his ears feel hot.
This, this, this, he just wiped it casually a few times, but why did this piece of cloth turn black like this gd1806102:
