Luo Yong's bacon and milk tea were not given away for free.
After leaving Changle County, these Hu people often talked to others about the courtesy they had received in Changle County in the past few days.
"Magistrate Naluo entertained us with bacon and milk tea."
"Those are very expensive foods.
Their special bacon is very delicious and very expensive.
It costs thirty cents a pound.
There is also milk tea made with tea leaves and goat's milk.
You only need to drink it once."
It will be unforgettable forever.”
"The police officers in Changle County are patrolling day and night.
Bandits don't dare to appear in the city.
It's very safe there."
"They take care of all the big and small things in the city.
The Luo County magistrate pays them a very high salary and requires them to be kind to the people and passing merchants.
Those who are not kind will lose their jobs."
The Hu people who had been to Changle County during this period were all saying similar things.
These words were spread from ten to ten, and soon spread in Dunhuang, Jinchang and other places.
After these words spread in the market, the fastest responders were still the merchants and stores in these places.
Just like when tofu first appeared in Changle County, although they did not like the behavior of people in Changle County snatching business from them, they did not reject new things.
They were curious about the legendary milk tea and bacon.
In addition, I also hope that they can bring more benefits to myself.
For a time, many wealthy merchants from Dunhuang and Jinchang areas went to Changle County, and the business of the restaurants and wine shops in the county also benefited from this.
"Mingfu, these people are obviously not real Hu merchants.
They just came to inquire about our situation.
Why do we give them bacon and milk tea?"
On this day, Luo Yong met a guesthouse shopkeeper on the street.
The man said to Luo Yong angrily.
Luo Yong heard this and asked him with a smile: "Why, didn't your store make any money these days?"
"But they are here to steal business."
The purpose of these people coming to Changle County was not simple at all, which made the store owner feel very angry.
"Ama, you are a businessman."
Luo Yong patted this honest man on the shoulder and said to him: "For a businessman, connections and channels are very important.
They are as important as roads in the wilderness.
What a great opportunity it is right now, why don't you know how to cherish it?"
""The shopkeeper named A Ma was speechless for a moment after hearing these words.
This honest man lived in a small western town in the secluded seventh century.
He only ran his own guest house every day.
He was happy when guests came, and angry when colleagues came.
He never knew about problems such as connections and channels.
If you want to think about it, there is no such concept at all.
He will only walk on the existing roads and never thought of relying on his own strength to build a road.
"So many people have come to our county in the past two days.
They are guests.
I hope you can show these guests the mind and magnanimity of our Changle people."
In later generations, exchange meetings like this between peers are also relatively common.

People in the same industry gather together just to exchange information and obtain resources.
This time, they have Changle County as the host.
This is actually a Very good publicity opportunity.
Luo Yong was not idle these past two days.
He kept showing goodwill to those merchants and caring about whether they lived comfortably in the city.
In addition, he also made special appointments with several more famous merchants and wealthy households to try to communicate with them.
They established friendship, sent out several baskets of bacon as gifts, and even generously told them how to make milk tea.
"Then, I'll go back first."
After listening to Luo Yong's words, Na Ama finally remembered how much effort the new Luo County magistrate had made in order to give their Changle County a good reputation and allow more businessmen to come here.
Why doesn't his wooden head know what to think about?
For a humble man like him, Magistrate Luo not only was not angry with him, but also reminded him to take advantage of this time to develop himself, which made him feel very ashamed.
"Go ahead, you should pay more attention these days."
There are probably some people who come from the surrounding areas with bad intentions.
If they are not careful, the image and reputation they have built up in Changle County over the years will probably fall short.
After finishing the ideological work for A Ma, Luo Yong hurried back to the county government office.
A batch of mutton was being smoked in the backyard of the county government office.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be smoked today.
The young magistrate hurriedly walked through the street.
In the shops on both sides of the street, some people were drinking and eating.
These people are generally a bit more generous than Hu Shang.
A pound of bacon worth thirty cents is also placed on the table in large plates.
"Brother, look at Magistrate Naluo, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?"
A young businessman was a little puzzled.
They originally came here to inquire and see if they could steal some teachers.
Why did the Luo County magistrate do this to them?
Changle County seemed to be celebrating a festival.
Not only could they not see Instead of taking a defensive stance, he treated them as distinguished guests.
"This coffin board is not simple."
His brother touched the stubble on his chin and said with a smile.
Last time, the cook in their shop came here to learn tofu cooking and stayed in Changle County for a few days.
After returning, he always said that Magistrate Luo of Changle County was a good man.
Even though he knew that he was not a cook in this county, he couldn't Let him learn from me, he is very kind, and so on, but he doesn't like to hear the bosses saying that these words are not good.
Judging from the situation in the past two days, these wealthy merchants who came back this time will probably not be able to say anything bad about Luo Yong after they return.
I also ate the bacon and drank the milk tea.
The store owner also greeted me attentively.
The Renluo County Magistrate even smiled and asked if you were living well.
If there was anything wrong with your hospitality, he even revealed how to make milk tea.
At this point, who can say anything bad?
Even if there is, it is only for very few people.
"No matter how hard he tries, Changle County is still not Changle County," said the younger brother.
"In two or three years, this small county will probably change its appearance."
His brother was very confident in Luo Yong.
"With these hundreds of households, no matter how hard they work, it is possible that they can still make flowers."
Although Changle County was like a festival these two days, compared with the busiest time in Dunhuang, it was nothing like the wild grass in the countryside.
The set is average.

"Just watch."
The young man is high-spirited and arrogant.
He doesn't like this and that.
It doesn't make sense.
There will be times when he will suffer in the future.
At this time, people in other shops were also talking about Luo Yong and Changle County.
"This Magistrate of Luo County is really dedicated to Changle County."
"Tsk, we can't compete.
They will definitely get a piece of the pie in the future."
"You don't need to worry too much, there are only so many merchants in Changle County." "" "" "That milk tea is really good.
After we go back in two days, we will start cooking it in the shop."
“It’s just the tea” "Send someone to buy it.
If Dunhuang doesn't have it, go to Liangzhou City."
"Yes, there are, but the number is probably very small."
"It doesn't hurt if the price is higher
.
" ""
"" “What do you think of this bacon?”
"The taste is really good, but the price is a bit expensive."
"It's good to take some back and sell them in the shop, but you won't make much money."
"Thirty cents is basically the maximum amount.
If you add more, not many people will be willing to eat it."
"I wonder if he can reduce the price further."
As these people were talking, not long after, they saw the county government officer walking through the street in front of the shop carrying loads of bacon.
The smell of the mutton that had just come out of the smokehouse was undeniable.
The officers also spread the news along the way that if the bacon was sold in bulk, it would cost thirty cents per catty.
If it was sold for more than one load, it would cost twenty cents.
For five cents, if it is more than five dans, it will be 23 cents, and if it is more than 10 dans, it will be 22 cents.
Those wealthy merchants who wanted to buy bacon followed the servants who carried the burden and went to their government-run shops one after another.
They were also worried that they would be overtaken by others and they would not be able to buy it if they arrived late.
Bacon, which originally cost twenty-five cents per pound, was not cheap, but compared with the previous price of thirty cents per pound, it suddenly saved five cents, and many people felt it was a good deal.
Besides, most of these merchants also have some discernment.
The bacon in Changle County is really delicious, and it won't take long to become famous.
In this case, it's better to buy sooner than later.
Even if you don't make money, you can't lag behind others. .
The loads of bacon were finally placed in the yard, and many people gathered around the bacon to pick and choose.
Not long after, Luo Yong came over with the smell of bacon.
He casually took a few pieces of bacon from a basket woven with red willow vines and ordered them to cut into thin slices on the spot.
Everyone in the yard was invited to taste and test the bacon.
Batch bacon quality.
The bacon that had just come out of the smokehouse had an extraordinary taste.
Someone took a bite and decided to buy it.
"How about we buy one load together, and each of us will share half the load when the time comes," someone said to an acquaintance next to him.
"Half a load is too little.
Why don't we buy two loads together?

If you only want half a load, I will take one and a half loads."
Fang Yan said.
"Why do you want so much bacon in your little shop?"
The man was surprised.
"In a few days, the Hu merchants from the desert will be coming.
At the end of the year, we only refer to these few months.
We can store the bacon, so it doesn't hurt to buy more."
The other party explained.
"Changle County is also very close.
If you don't have enough then you can buy more.
Why buy so much in one go?"
"Although Changle County is close, this bacon may not always be available.
Brother, you need to be more decisive.
Don't wait until you can't buy it and then get angry in a hurry."
"Hey, how much do you two want to buy?"
"I haven't decided yet."
"If it's not like this, how about you and I buying five dans together?"
“So many” "Not too much, not too much.
If you two are afraid of too much, just ask for less.
I want two and a half loads, but three is fine."
"I want a load" "You want one load, you want two and a half load, I want one and a half load, how about" "Can" They had just decided which side to move quickly, and by this time they were all on the scales.
For more than five dans, the price is 23 cents per catty, and for more than 10 dans, the price is 22 cents per catty.
Many merchants with stronger financial resources can buy the five dans and ten cents on their own without having to find someone to buy together.
Go bear it.
"The freshly smoked meat still has more moisture.
After it has been hung on the beam for a while, it will inevitably lose some weight."
Someone here weighed ten loads of bacon, and Luo Yong ordered him to put one or two more bacons on top of each basket, which made up for the weight that would be lost after the water was lost.
“The magistrate of Luo County is generous and generous” "This business is really good."
"Hurry up and weigh five Dan with me."
"I want ten loads."
"We also want five dan." "" If Luo Yong had not said anything about the original weight difference, these merchants would have carried it themselves without any complaints.
Everyone has eaten bacon and knows that the meat will definitely become lighter after hanging it to dry.
They didn't say anything at this time, but Luo Yong stood up and said that he would supply them with some bacon.
This attitude made these merchants feel very comfortable, even if they didn't have enough money to buy bacon and go home to eat it.
The rich people who play are also quite satisfied with this.
Although this second batch of bacon was made in large quantities, it could not withstand the purchase of five or ten loads.
In the end, except for a small portion left in the shop to continue entertaining the merchants who passed by, the rest were all sold out. .
After more than ten days, someone tried to buy bacon from them again, but they couldn't do it.
This load of bacon was finally delivered to the guest house where these merchants lived.
That night, these people each ordered a lot of good wine and food, and had a good time chatting with the local shops.
These merchants who came from Dunhuang and other places were generally smarter than the locals in Changle County.
Many people had thought early on that the new Luo County magistrate was accustomed to rectifying new things, and they should still be able to deal with them in the future.
I will buy here again.
In this case, it is necessary to have a good relationship with the locals.
If you can have some friendship, you may be able to help me buy on my behalf.

"Come, come, have a drink."
In A Ma's shop, several merchants were sitting at the same table with the shopkeeper, A Ma, drinking and eating meat.
"Ah Ma, you magistrate of Luo County really has nothing to say."
One of the merchants said.
"That's right."
Amma felt proud when her county magistrate was praised: "Since he came, our county has become much more lively."
"I think your Changle County is going to change a lot soon."
"At this rate, your guesthouse will be expanded soon."
"Hey, how dare you think about that?
There are only a few rooms here.
It's good to be able to live in them all."
Since just now, these people have been giving Ah Ma a lot of advice, and they have been showering her with nice words.
They don't need any money, so they just have to say it with all their strength.
They also see that A Ma is an honest person, so they want to make him happy.
In the future, the other party can help them.
If they ask him to help buy something or something, brother, you are so embarrassed that you can't do your best.
Sorry to withdraw money Little did he know that this seemingly honest man was also thinking about something at the moment.
Magistrate Luo talked to him today about connections and channels, but he didn't quite understand it, but he did understand the words that told him to pave the road himself.
How should he pave the road?
He thought in his mind, Ama He looked up again and looked at the people in front of him.
"I don't dare to think about it.
Just think about Lishi County."
"Exactly, I heard that Lishi County used to be quite poor, just because of this Luo Sanlang.
Look at how many people in the world today don't know about Lishi County."
It would be a bit exaggerated to say that no one in the world knows about Lishi County, but Chang Le's generation in Dunhuang is on the trading route to the Western Regions for Hu merchants.
Those Hu merchants are making some moves, and they are also It's all relatively clear.
Two years ago, when sheep-fat soap sweaters had not yet appeared elsewhere, most of those items came from Lishi, including ink bottles, rubber-soled leather boots, and automatic umbrellas.
There were so many varieties. .
In the past two years, suet soap has been everywhere, and most of the woolen sweaters are goods from Luo Erniang's workshop in Liangzhou City.
There are fewer goods from Lishi, but it is said that there are still many Hu merchants making money.
The spring bearings they have over there.
People in other places may not know Lishi County, but they are indeed known to everyone in this area, especially the merchants in the city.
"Ama, it's a good time for you."
"How can I compare with your Dunhuang?"
"Hey, where we are, it's just like that year after year."
"Just in the summer months, if God doesn't show mercy, there won't be much business to do."
"Indeed, if the weather is bad, those Hu merchants will not come."
Amma also sighed.
In the past, when the year was good, their Changle County side would also receive waves of caravans.
Although they were just passing through, they could bring some running water to their small county.
If the year was bad, then It's been a tough life.
"Why don't they want to come?"
A middle-aged businessman with a beard picked up the wine cup, took a sip of the wine, sighed again, and said: "It's not that they refused to come, but that most of them were lost in the desert."
The author has something to say: So what, it’s too late. . . gd1806102:
