The rich merchants in Lishi County were not only competing on the matter of erecting merit monuments.
In order to build this road before the snow fell, they also spent money to hire many people.
The section of road from Lishi County was the first to be completed.
There were many villages nearby and many villagers participated in paving the road.
The road out of Xipo Village was paved faster because Luo Yong's disciples and many Dinghu people came to help.
In addition, although the road section pledged by the Mawang family is long, they also hired the most civilian workers.
They divided it into several sections and worked on it at the same time, so the speed of road construction was not slow.
By the tenth day of October, most of the road sections were completed, with only one or two places still being finished.
In the past two days, Tamura Masa led some villagers from Xipo Village to run back and forth on this road.
When he saw something unfinished, he stopped to help.
They ride Yan'erfei when they come and go.
The road section near Xipo Village has been repaired.
Riding on it is fast and stable.
The villagers say that this is the real Yanerfei. , In the past, it was just a bird flying at most.
Villagers in other villages were jealous when they saw them riding Yaner Fei.
Life in Xipo Village has been good these past two years.
Every household has made money.
Many people have bought Yaner Fei. , now that this road is built, it will be more convenient to enter the city later.
So many people also want to buy Yanerfei.
The price of Yanerfei has not changed.
It is only 300 yuan.
Now it is not as difficult to buy as before.
If you can't come up with the money, you can make a chain out of dianthus.
If it can be exchanged, there are people in these villages who make bamboo chains, but most of them used to sell them for money.
It's a pity that snow is about to fall soon.
When it snows, it will be difficult for Yanerfei to fly.
However, with this cement road, whether you are driving an animal to pull a cart or pushing a wheelbarrow yourself, it will be safer than before.
It is still easy to walk, effortless and stable.
Everyone worked together and finally built the road before the snow fell.
God is also an eye-opener.
The first snow this year came late.
The first snow did not fall until October 13th.
This is relatively late in recent years.
Like last year, it started falling in mid-to-late September. snowflake.
After this cement road was built, unmarried young men and young ladies in their area became more popular, especially young men.
Many families from all over the country were willing to marry their daughters to this precious land of theirs.
With this gust of east wind, Lin Chunqiu's marriage was finally decided.
It was a young lady from a farmer's family in the southwest of Lishi County.
She was sixteen years old, two years younger than Lin Chunqiu, and she was also the youngest in the family. , there are several brothers and sisters above, all married.
Xipo Village is located in the northwest of Lishi County.
There are mountains everywhere on this side and there is no good land.
It has always been a poor place.
If Luo Sanlang hadn't been born, they generally wouldn't be able to marry in the southwest area.
The land there is flat and overall it is relatively affluent than the one in Xipo Village.
The old couple of the Lin family are also very happy recently.

They are very dedicated in preparing for the wedding and naturally spend a lot of money.
Aunt Luo and her husband worked in the Xu family guest house all day, and they didn't know much about the situation at home.
There was inevitably some murmuring in the other two rooms.
The weather was good that day, neither wind nor snow, and the sun was shining brightly.
When the sun rose, some village women came to the entrance of the village carrying baskets to wash clothes.
One of the young women said to Sister-in-law Lin: "I heard that your husband bought a pair of geese in Xiaohe Village two days ago.
They are very beautiful.
He said that he wanted to pay tribute to the young man at home. ” Sister-in-law Lin naturally knew about this, so she smiled and said, "Liu Lang's wedding is coming soon."
Because the young people on both sides were old enough, the marriage didn't take too long.
Lin's father and Lin's mother were anxious to get Lin Chunqiu married.
They were satisfied with the Lin family's situation, but they didn't want to miss out on this good marriage. , so he readily agreed.
He just wanted to go through all the procedures and get married years ago.
The other party was also an idle person.
Seeing that his flirtation failed to arouse Sister-in-law Lin's temper, he said again: "Your mother-in-law is also willing to give up.
I heard that this time the betrothal gift is so heavy that it is still a big deal in our village."
First portion."
Since it was the first one, I naturally had to go over Mrs.
Lin and Mrs.
Lin.
The old couple of the Lin family were really partial.
I think that when Aunt Luo came in, she was not even as good as Mrs.
Lin and Mrs.
Lin.
Now she is willing to give it up.
I don’t know how much it cost.
Lin Wulang and Aunt Luo made a lot of money back, and they were not worried about the loss.
"I heard that the bride this time has several carts of dowry, which is different from what we did back then."
Sister-in-law Lin is not stupid after all.
What good does it do her to talk about her unmarried sister-in-law with outsiders at this time?
It is better to lift her up first, so that she can look good on herself.
After all, she is also a member of the Lin family, isn't she?
A dowry of this size for a daughter-in-law with such conditions is considered the first in their village.
"That's true, the people over there have always been rich."
The man didn't find any breakthrough in Sister Lin, so he rested in a lackluster mood.
People living in a small place look at each other, and they are secretly competing with each other.
This time, the daughter-in-law mentioned by the Lin family is indeed in good condition, and there are also jealous people.
But what does Lin Chunqiu have?
Migraine, isn't it because I have become a relative of the Luo family.
There were also a few people in the village who secretly resented that the Lin family could become relatives of the Luo family, but they did not.
They were already feeling sour in their hearts, but the Lin family's actions were often untrue.
Sister-in-law Lin and Sister-in-law Lin were angry with the family.
The old man was partial to Lin Liulang and often went out to complain to others.
After these two visits, there were naturally more gossips about their family in the village.
Many of those words said that Lin Wulang and Mrs.
Luo were at a disadvantage, and that Lin's father and Lin's mother were partial.

Despite Luo Yong's previous words and pretentiousness, Father Lin and Mother Lin didn't have much opinion of Aunt Luo, but they would inevitably have some knots in their hearts.
Fortunately, the young couple were out all day, all day long.
It was rare for me to meet Father Lin and Mother Lin face to face.
On the other hand, although Sister-in-law Lin did not show any dissatisfaction in front of others this time, when she returned home, after a busy day, she complained to her man during her rest that night: "Ye Niang is really willing to give up this time.
We don't have a lot of money in our family, and we are still making tofu.
We work hard to earn two dollars, but they don't feel bad about spending it."
"They never feel bad if they spend money on Liulang."
Lin Dalang didn't think it was a big deal and even fanned her.
In fact, he was not dissatisfied in his heart, but his brother was getting married soon.
If there was a commotion in the family at this time, he didn't know how he would be laughed at.
"You said, after this marriage is over, let's split it up with them, each earning his own income."
Sister-in-law Lin discussed with him.
"You can divide it as you say," Lin Dalang sighed.
He also wants to split up the family, but can he let it go if he says so?
Now, although they can save some private housing for themselves, the big head of the family is still in the hands of the old couple.
They have been jealous this year.
Selling vinegar doesn't make a lot of money, and he hasn't seen a cent of the money he made from making and selling tofu these days.
"Hey."
Sister-in-law Lin pushed him and whispered: "How about we talk to Wu Lang and his wife?"
"You should stop worrying about me now, and be careful that Luo Sanlang will hold a grudge against you again when the time comes."
Lin Dalang said quickly.
"Sanlang doesn't look like that."
Sister-in-law Lin was still thinking about Lin Wulang and Aunt Luo.
"Hmph, you look at him as a soft-hearted person."
Lin Dalang snorted: "You have forgotten what happened with Tian Sheng and his wife."
""Sister-in-law Lin stopped talking.
When the villagers came together to deal with Tian Sheng and his wife, they didn't do much, but the scene was not fun.
None of the children in the village were allowed to go.
Among those present, Luo Yong is the youngest.
Sister-in-law Lin recalled the look on Luo Yong's face at that time.
It had been a long time and she couldn't remember it clearly, but she remembered one thing very clearly.
Luo Sanlang showed no softness or sympathy towards Na Tian Sheng and his wife, and even It can be said to be quite indifferent.
"When he asked Wu Lang and his wife to work in the Xu family's guest house, and he was willing to give him such a small amount of money every month, it was not just to pick them out, which would be ugly.
It was to spend money to buy peace and quiet, and it was also a way to save face for our family.
Come on, do you dare to drag them in now?"
Lin Dalang was worried that his mother-in-law would do something stupid, so he spoke to her.
"That's what I said."
Mrs.
Lin hummed.
Aunt Luo didn't have much in the past, but now that her brother has become successful, she has to worry about everything.
The two of them work outside all day long, and they don't help at home.
She and Sister Lin are doing the spinning and weaving work. .
Some time ago, when people from the county came to collect taxes, Luo Sanlang asked Lin Wulang to bring back half a piece of linen, saying that he and his wife were working there, which delayed the weaving time at home.
As a result, Lin's father refused to accept it and asked Lin Wulang to send it back to him, saying that they had already received their wages.
If they took the cloth again at this time, other people would not know what to say about the Lin family.

"I don't know what the second bedroom has been thinking about lately.
Today I told her about the betrothal gift, but she didn't even talk to her."
Sister-in-law Lin thought for a while and said again.
"What else can you think of?
She, Aye, is now working in a cement workshop.
Originally, people refused to accept him because he was too old.
Later, Luo Sanlang said something and asked him to help chop wood and make the fire.
Look at that, it seems like She plans to let him learn to watch fire, and the salary of watching fire is not low.
She can earn three cents a day and take care of food.
She is very happy at the moment and doesn't want to get involved."
Lin Dalang explained.
"I haven't heard about this."
Sister-in-law Lin sighed again.
Without Aunt Luo at home, the two sisters-in-law have to do more work than before.
They have no time to spare all day long.
This time the new daughter-in-law It's better to come in early, so that you can help them share some of the burden then.
"Go to sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow to make tofu."
Lin Dalang yawned, turned over again, and stopped moving.
After the autumn harvest was over, the tofu business in Xipo Village became active again.
In the previous days, they were building roads and making tofu.
They were so busy that they couldn't even touch the ground.
Even the tofu business was widely spread in other places.
The Sixth Valley failed to make any waves here.
Although the road has been repaired now, the people in their area are not very idle.
Those who make tofu make tofu, those who make paper make paper, and those who work hard.
After this year's taxes were paid, the work of various state and county officials came to an end.
Hao was going to Chang'an City to appeal to the emperor for his duties.
It was three to five days before he left.
Luo Yong asked him to bring a pair of boots to the emperor, which is common nowadays.
The style of riding boots only uses Eucommia gum for the soles and deerskin for the uppers.
In addition, Luo Yong also gave Hao a pair of boots as a gift.
Since he did not need to ride a horse when he went to Beijing this time, Luo Yong asked Feng Cobbler to make him a pair of soap boots.
The style was similar, but it was not a white sole with a black upper, but a pair of recent boots.
Black eucommia rubber soles, the uppers are made of a piece of fine sheepskin, and the inside of the shoes is lined with a layer of cotton.
I think it won't be too cold if he takes a carriage all the way to Chang'an.
Because the original color of the sheepskin was not good-looking enough, cobbler Feng took the dye from Luo Yong and spent a lot of time dyeing the sheepskin into cyan.
The cyan uppers and black soles were in the style of soap boots, and matched with Hao Jishi's shoes.
The big cloak is really good-looking.
Even if the collar of a turtleneck is exposed from inside the big cloak, it won't look very out of place.
The last time Luo Yong went to Chang'an, it was thanks to Governor Hao's arrangement.
This time, in addition to the pair of boots, Luo Yong also asked Ma's Trading Company to transport the batch of peony cushions to Chang'an City.
He will definitely need Governor Hao's help then. , can be presented to the palace.
Luo Yong was very grateful to Governor Hao.
Although he didn't show any special care for Luo Yong in Lishi County on weekdays, Luo Yong actually caused him a lot of trouble.
Recently, many people in Chang'an City have shown hostility towards Luo Yong.

I wonder if Governor Hao will be embarrassed by some people when he comes to Beijing this time.
A few days later, in Chang'an City.
Hao Jishi and his carriage were driving slowly on the street.
The weather was cold and snow particles were falling in the sky.
When he opened the window and looked outside, he saw the people from Chang'an coming and going in a hurry outside, each holding an oil-paper umbrella.
When they arrived at the place to stay, Governor Hao asked someone: "I heard that people in Chang'an don't like to use oil-paper umbrellas, but now it seems like everyone uses them."
The other party didn't know that he was the governor of Shizhou, so he didn't think much about it, and said with a smile: "Originally, I said there was no need, but no, it's so cold when it rains in the winter, I really can't bear it anymore, so it's just three Within two days, these oil-paper umbrellas were all over the streets.”
