Within a few days, some dates sellers appeared on the streets.
At the beginning, they were rare and the prices were relatively expensive.
Later, they gradually became more popular and the prices became lower.
A few days later, it started to rain again in autumn, which means that in Chang'an, if it were left in Longxi, the large tracts of white flowers would be destroyed.
But even in Chang'an, raining in autumn is not a good thing.
The north-south groceries in Chang'an City have a lot of cooperation with farmers in the suburbs.
Recently, Luo Yong has often heard Siniang talk about the autumn harvest.
Rainy weather is obviously not good.
Conducive to the autumn harvest.
The people in the city had only eaten the dates for a few days.
Due to the continuous rain, the dates were almost extinct in the market.
Firstly, it is inconvenient to get in and out on rainy days.
Secondly, once the freshly picked fruits are exposed to rainwater, they cannot be stored and are easy to rot.
Whether picking fruits and vegetables or harvesting grain, it must be done on a sunny day.
Luo Yong went to court, and the court was also talking about the weather.
They were worried that the food in the Guanzhong area would be damaged by the autumn rain this year.
If this was the case, they had to make plans early.
After all, Guanzhong has a large population and transportation is not convenient, so food often The situation is tight, and if there is a disaster year, it is easy for famine to begin.
Fortunately, in the past two years, there have been more grains in granaries in various places.
Except for the peace in the world, there have been few wars.
This is mainly because of the high yield of corn.
Most of the grains in these granaries are mainly corn.
I think about how valuable corn was when its planting was first promoted, but now it can be seen everywhere, and the price is not as good as that of millet and wheat.
In order to ensure nothing went wrong, the imperial court sent people to inspect various granaries in the customs, including the Yi Granary, which was specially used to resist natural disasters, and the Changping Granary, which was used to stabilize grain prices.
In this way, various large and small granaries in the Guanzhong area are about to undergo a wave of major inspections.
If any deficiencies are found, another group of officials will inevitably be fired.
The largest granary in Chang'an City is Taicang within the palace city.
Luo Yong and his colleagues also have a granary in the Chang'an County Government.
It is a small warehouse, mainly used to pay salaries to the officials in the government, as well as some foundations in Chang'an County.
Maintenance of facilities.
For example, in Chang'an City at this time, there were many ditches outside the square walls.
In order to facilitate access, bridges must be built over the ditches.
At present, these bridges are mainly wooden bridges, which are trampled by pedestrians, vehicles and horses every day.
These wooden bridges are often damaged.
If some wealthy families live in some houses and see this situation, they may pay for the repairs themselves.
If there are no people to repair some houses, then the Chang'an County Government will definitely come forward to do this.
In addition, there are many places where money needs to be spent.
For example, after the promotion of biogas lamps, there are street lights on every street in Chang'an County.
The maintenance of these street lights and public biogas pools is also an expense.
These are basically annual fixed expenses, and there are also some temporary emergencies.
Luo Yong deliberately wanted to replace the wooden bridges in Chang'an County with reinforced concrete bridges, because wooden bridges are not only easy to damage, but also easy to grow moss when they are sometimes soaked by rain.
When walking, they may slip or even fall.
There are relatively few adults who fall into ditches.
I often hear that some children fall into ditches.
However, there is no money.

Recently, rail construction has begun in Luoyang, and the price of iron in Chang'an City has increased accordingly.
There are a total of fifty-four squares under the jurisdiction of Chang'an County.
Under normal circumstances, each square has as many gates as there are bridges.
Some squares have four bridges, some squares have two bridges, and some squares are next to the city wall. , there are also three bridges.
If all these wooden bridges are to be replaced with reinforced concrete bridges, the total of these fifty-four squares will not be a small sum.
The autumn rain finally stopped after six or seven days.
As soon as the weather cleared up, farmers outside the city began to harvest grain.
Date sellers began to be seen everywhere again, and the price of dates was a bit cheaper than before the rain.
Luo Yong and his family had a jujube tree in their yard, which was enough for their family to eat.
There was no preservation technology in this era.
Sometimes, if the dates harvested the day before were not eaten after being washed, they would begin to rot the next day.
Qiniang and the others used knives to peel off the rotten parts, and then cut the dates into pieces.
Eat.
The remaining intact dates without broken skins were dried in the yard.
With only one date tree, they probably wouldn't have to buy dates for the whole year.
In addition to dates, there are also persimmons, pears, and hawthorns and pomegranates during this season.
Others are rare, such as grapes and oranges, which are very expensive and cannot be afforded by ordinary people.
Some poor families in Chang'an City are not willing to spend money to buy even the cheapest dates.
Some people often take the mixed rice bran at home and exchange it with the date seller for some rotten dates.
In such a large city of Chang'an, there are always rich and poor, and in Chang'an County under Luo Yong's jurisdiction, there are especially many poor people.
Luo Yong has been born in poverty in both his two lives.
He does not think that eating a few rotten dates is a big deal.
Even now, his brothers and sisters will not throw away the slightly rotten dates directly.
However, the difference lies in whether they can stop eating these rotten dates when they don't want to eat them, and whether they can afford them when they want to eat better fruits.
Not to mention, the limitations of life for these poor people are far more than just a few fruits.
Temporary hardship is not terrible, but what is terrible is the hardship of generations.
There is no hope, no chance to get ahead.
Generation after generation, let the times pass away.
On the first day of September, Luo Yong announced at this court that he wanted to open primary schools in Chang'an County.
A total of four boys' schools and four girls' schools would be opened in the south and north of the city, a total of eight schools.
