Chapter 99: Catch the Fashion


Since the soap-making recipe has been dedicated to the emperor, the promotion will naturally be decided by them.

Luo Yong does not want to interfere anymore, nor does he want to steal the emperor's limelight at this time to increase his own sense of existence.

But Luo Yong definitely still needs these Champa rice seeds.

The transportation costs are so expensive at this time.

It is definitely more cost-effective to grow some rice locally than to spend money to buy rice from other places.

So Luo Yong said to Du Gou: "Since this soap-making recipe has been dedicated to the saint, it naturally belongs to the saint.

If Du Dalang wants the recipe, I am afraid he will have to discuss it with the saint."

When Du Gou heard this, he smiled bitterly and bowed his hands to Luo Yong, but for a moment he was speechless.

Others may not understand the twists and turns here, but Du Gou himself has been in contact with the center of power.

He knows that Luo Sanlang’s words are not an excuse.

It’s just that after riding a horse all the way over thousands of miles, after all the hard work, it is still bamboo.

The basket is in vain, and it is inevitable to feel disappointed.

"I wonder what Du Dalang wants to do with this recipe?"

Luo Yong asked him.

"Just to find a way to make money for the Laizhou elders."

Du Gou replied.

Laizhou is close to the sea.

The locals make a living by fishing and growing some crops.

Life is basically not a problem.

But if a local economy wants to develop and the people want to live a prosperous life, they must have their own industries. , there must be something that can be sold from the Laizhou area to other places in exchange for money.

Speaking of the soap making business, people on the grasslands do have an advantage over them, but this does not prevent people from other areas from also making soap to increase their income.

It is not easy to make money these days, just by farming.

Or fishing, life is always difficult.

If there is another disaster, ordinary families simply cannot bear it.

"In that case, why don't I teach you the craftsmanship of the peony cushion?"

Luo Yong said bluntly. "" When Du Gou heard this, he was surprised at first, and then immediately handed over his hands and thanked him: "In this case, I thank Luo Sanlang."

Naturally, he has heard of the name of the peony cushion.

He heard that it became very popular in Chang'an City last year.

Many wealthy families in Chenzhong, Chang'an, use peony cushions produced in Lishi County.

Recently, because the weather has really gotten hotter, using The number of people gradually decreased.

If he can learn this craft and go back to develop this industry in Laizhou, the products they make in the future can be sold to various parts of Hebei Province in the north and Huainan Province in the south.

Then Suzhou, Hangzhou and Yangzhou in Huainan are all produced.

A famous and prosperous place.

"This time I took advantage of Saburo."

Although Du Gou was happy, he was still from a big family and had not lost his manners.

"It doesn't matter, people are making peony cushions all over the country now."

There are indeed many people making peony cushions, especially inside and outside Chang'an City, but there are still only a few who are really good at it.

Judging from Du Gou's character, he does not seem to be the kind of person who is shrewd, rigorous and difficult to talk to.

He is even a bit loose and casual.

At this time, if Luo Yong discusses with him and asks him to sell those rice seeds to him, the other party should Will also agree.

But what's the point of that?

It's a thousand miles away, why make people travel in vain.

Luo Yong did not feel that he was at any disadvantage by exchanging peony cushion craftsmanship for these rice seeds.

If he remembered correctly, this variety of rice was supposed to have to wait until the Song Dynasty to be truly promoted on a large scale.

It was hundreds of years later.

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Champa rice was still growing in nooks and crannies.

Without any channels, it was really impossible to get it.

Now that the two sides had reached an agreement, Du Gou didn't take precautions against Luo Yong and directly gave him the seeds first.

Luo Yong divided the seeds into two parts.

He kept one part for himself and put it in the space just in case.

The other part was given to the disciples who rented his field and asked each of them to take some and plant it.

Everyone remembered Decide on your own planting methods and compare them when the harvest comes in the fall to see who grows the best rice.

In the days that followed, Du Gou lived in Xipo Village.

Luo Yong found a room for him in his disciple's courtyard.

Du Gou practiced making peony cushions in this courtyard every day, except going to Xu's guest house for meals.

Because he studied Du Gou very carefully, he could always get the right ideas when asking questions.

One time, Luo Yong couldn't fool him, so he mentioned the sketching and painting concepts of light and structure to him.

Then Du Gou seemed to have been opened to a new world.

In the past, the painting he learned mainly started from lines and veins, while what he painted in sketch was light and the relationship between light and dark.

This was simply too novel for him.

For a moment, I put aside the peony cushion and practiced sketching with the bamboo charcoal I burned.

After Du Gou lived in Xipo Village for some time, Fu Tou quietly emerged among the young men in the village.

In the past, when their village was poor, they naturally did not have such particularity.

Now that the economic conditions have improved, they can see a young, handsome and elegant man from the noble family wearing a bun hanging around the village every day.

Some villagers Once you see it, you will inevitably learn from it.

The leno soft towel used in the futou is not cheap, but such a piece of fabric can be used for a long time as long as it is bought back, so many people are still willing to spend money to buy it.

Aunt Luo also asked someone to buy two soft saluo towels from the city, one for Lin Wulang and the other for Luo.

Luo Yong refused to wear it, so she and Er Niang forced him down and used the soft scarf to tie a crew cut on his head.

"Take a look, this Wusha is perfect for you."

After the hair was tied, Aunt Luo looked left and right, and was very satisfied.

Their Sanlang was already clean and elegant, and with such a bun, he looked even more bookish. .

The Nashaluo soft scarf is a piece of blue-black gauze fabric, also known as Wusha.

The Wusha hat of later generations evolved from this.

"This is how it will be done from now on."

Er Niang immediately said for Luo Yong.

"The earthy white linen clothes and short brown clothes, paired with this green and black futou, look so silly."

Luo Yong said with disgust.

It's not that he refuses to accept the aunt, it's actually that the equipment he wears doesn't match it at all.

Luo Yong sees what those people in the village look like after they wear buns.

"What's the matter?

I think it looks good."

Er Niang said.

Well, it really doesn’t match well, but only one head is good-looking, so that’s good-looking.

For a young man, you have to dress up as you should.

"When the filial piety period comes, I will make you two more energetic robes."

The aunt coaxed the child: "Okay, remember to tie it up yourself tomorrow, don't be lazy."

Er Niang also promised him: "You look better with your hair tied than those in our village, it's true."

Luo Yong: I think you are praising me.

In order not to disappoint the aunt and two mothers, Luo Yong had to get a bun on his head early the next morning.

I originally wanted to find two pieces of clothing to match, but when I opened the closet, I saw that there was no decent clothes, let alone matching, so I had to continue wearing the earthy white and short brown outfit from yesterday.

"Hey, Saburo's hair is pretty good."

"nice."

"The futou must be worn by a young man like this to look good."

"My aunt bought this for me, I think Lin Wulang is wearing it today.

He doesn't look as good as you." "" When people in Xipo Village saw Luo Sanlang wearing a futou, they all praised him.

After hearing too many complimentary words, Luo Yong almost thought that there was something wrong with his own aesthetics.

In fact, everyone's vision is correct.

The earthy white short brown with the green and black futou is actually very good-looking.

Occasionally, when businessmen from other places come here to buy things, Luo Yong can greet them with a smile on his brand-new bun head.

After all, he is just a country boy, so what the heck.

"Brother, Du Dalang is here to look for you again."

In the afternoon, Luo Yong was making soap in the backyard, and Siniang ran over to him and said.

"Oh."

Luo Yong responded and said to Siniang: "Please help me push this for a while.

I will come over in a moment."

"Okay."

Si Niang said she deserved it and was very happy.

At this time, Peng Er was cooking pig food down the slope.

Er Niang was in the next room filling the jars of tofu cubes that had grown mold in the past few days.

Everyone was busy.

Luo Yong put down his work and was about to go out.

After thinking about it, he reached out and took off the soft Saran towel on his head.

"Why did you take off the bun again?"

Siniang shouted.

Both sisters said that Sanlang looked good with his bun tied up, and Si Niang also thought it looked good.

"I didn't tie it up in the morning.

It came loose when I was working."

Luo Yong said.

That's all.

In front of Du Gou, he really couldn't afford to lose this person.

Recently, the people in his village started to wear buns just like others.

As a result, they were tied up one by one, and they didn't look half as good as others.

"Hey" Si Niang obviously didn't believe it. gd1806102:
