101. Hao Jianping

Du Gou went into the city to make a few small slender blades, and after returning to Xipo Village, he began to tinker with paring knife.

The paring knife made at the beginning was also quite simple. After several improvements, the paring knife looked very close to the future. Because there was only one blade, I could only pull and peel it, but not push and peel it.

The first beneficiary of this paring knife is the Xu family's hotel. His family cooks a lot of food every day. Recently, it is the season for loofah and gourd to be launched on the market, so there is a lot of peeling work.

Since getting a paring knife from Du Gou, even the youngest child in their family can easily complete this task.

Many merchants living in the Xujiake House, after seeing this kind of paring knife, many of them showed great interest.

The principle of this knife is actually very simple. Some people have read it carefully and secretly wrote it down in their hearts. They plan to do it after going back. Some people also expressed that they want to spend money to buy one from Du Gou and do it. Du Gou also bought it very quickly. The price is only five cents a piece.

The most valuable thing about this paring knife is the small iron blade, which weighs about one cent. With the processing fee for the blacksmith, it is only about two cents. The remaining wooden racks can't cost a penny no matter what. At most, it's half a penny, so it's actually profitable to sell this paring knife for five cents.

It’s a pity that the structure of this thing is too simple. Once it is spread, it will be easily imitated and will not bring him long-term profits.

When Wang Dang and others saw this paring knife, they planned to get some to Dinghu County to sell it. But when they went to Du Gou, they saw that the guy's enthusiasm for paring knife had passed. At this moment, they were still busy painting, saying that they were willing to tell Wang Dang and others how to make the paring knife, and asked them to make it and sell it themselves.

Luo Yong's disciples who did not rent land and farm with their master heard the news, and some of them showed their willingness to do this business.

"What do you plan to sell these paring knives?" On this day, Luo Yong came from the sheep shelter and passed by the Xu family's guest house. He saw several of his disciples sitting around a corner of the hall, burying his head to make paring knives, so he went over and asked.

"It's just for those merchants who live in hotels to sell them." One of the disciples looked up and said.

"Ask each one?" Luo Yong asked.

"It's okay to sell on the street." Another disciple added.

"What are you going to hawk?" Luo Yong wanted to give them some advice.

"Hehe..." A disciple present was embarrassed to grab his hair when asked. Although he had been a peddler and was a slogan, he was a basic time, but now he was a little embarrassed in front of his master.

"What words do you use when you sell?" Luo Yong was really curious.

"Ci'er?" The disciples were also curious and just shouted. Isn't it just one or two sentences? What other words do you want?

"If you make up a set of words, you should be able to attract more people to buy them." Luo Yong thought that the business was indeed very underdeveloped at this time, and even the brand concept had not been formed much, so his sales methods must be relatively backward.

"Wouldn't you have to spend money to ask someone to write lyrics?" In this era, those who could write lyrics were basically higher-level literati. Generally, people who roughly knew a few big characters could write lyrics.

"It's not necessary." Luo Yong was thinking about how to explain the rumor to them, but he saw Xu Erlang's eldest son picking two gourds from outside and planning to take them to the kitchen, so he asked him to bring them over.

This gourd is a gourd. The Xu family's vegetable garden is well managed and the melons and vegetables are planted early. In the past few days, many gourds have matured and cannot be used up in the store. They often ask their children to pick a few and send them to the Luo family's yard.

At this time, Luo Yong took the two gourds and took a paring knife from one of his disciples. He recalled the common words on street stalls in later generations. Sitting there, he demonstrated to his disciples what the real hawking was.

"Come on, those who have walked by, and those who have passed by, come and take a look, take a look at my paring knife..."

"Those who come from the south, those who go north, those who ride donkeys, and those who make horses, come and take a look..."

"Stand forward, don't back. There is no charge for live demonstrations. If you buy them, it doesn't matter. Learn about the new product..."

"It's five cents, five cents a day. You can't buy it and suffer losses. If you cost five cents a day, you can't buy it and be fooled..."

Luo Yong was quite embarrassed when he first said the first two sentences. The more he got, the more excited he became. Not to mention, it has been two or three years since he traveled here. He really missed the hustle and bustle streets and night markets in the 21st century.

And his apprentices were completely stunned at this time: after the baptism of his master, they would never dare to say that they had been peddlers and were called to sell.

"Cough cough." At this time, someone at the door let out a light cough. Luo Yong turned his head and saw that governor Hao and several others were standing there.

"Luo Sanlang, Your Majesty has an order to set off soon and come to the capital to meet the saint." Governor Hao said to Luo Yongyan. At this time, his expression was quite subtle, and those who came with him were not inferior.

Everyone in the Xu family's living room was shocked by Luo Yongshen's hawking skills just now. At this time, they could not react when they heard this letter.

"The people follow the order." At this time, Luo Yong was quite calm. He had long expected this day to come. He moved so many things from the 21st century to the seventh century. The emperor was not blind, so he would have to find him sooner or later.

"I heard that you have recently slaughtered some goats and planted some rice." said governor Hao.

"When I came from the sheep house in front, did the governor Hao see it?" Luo Yong had already put on his shoes and got off the kang.

"The goats grow well, and as for the rice, I still can't tell the truth." Before the food was finally fruitful, no one could tell whether this thing could be planted here. What's the use of rice stalks that grow well? What if they bear the shags at that time.

"If it is true, the governor will also taste the rice produced in Lishi County at that time." Luo Yong said with a smile.

"Very good." Governor Hao also said with a smile.

Hao Jianping was born in the Hao family in Taiyuan. His family was loose and he did not have much power.

In this era when family members talk about military merits, his foundation was very shallow compared to many of his colleagues in the officialdom. It is precisely because of this that he is more cautious.

After counting the time, it is only more than ten years since Li Yuan proclaimed himself emperor and changed his country's name to Wude. After the first year of Wood, there are still many forces in the country, with smoke of gunpowder and wars constantly. If there are wars, there will naturally be meritorious officials. In recent years, there are many meritorious officials of the year, and even the descendants of meritorious officials.

There are only so many official positions throughout the country, and there are meritorious officials who need to be settled, and many gentry forces need to be appeased and won over and over again. In the end, there are several positions that can be left for the students who have passed the imperial examinations later. The gentry nobles will not watch their status be shaken.

"I heard that you can't ride a horse, so I will let my Jianpu drive the car to take you to Chang'an City." Hao Jianping was somewhat guilty of Luo Sanlang.

He has always followed a strategy of self-protection. Although he is still dedicated to the governor of a state, he naturally has to plan for himself.

Luo Sanlang had not paid much attention to this person before. When he later created the swallow flying, Hao Jianping became more cautious in his attitude towards him. The wood was fascinated by the forest, and the wind would urge him. Hao Jianping was not sure whether he could withstand the strong wind that could come at any time, so he chose to avoid it.

Speaking of which, Luo Sanlang has done a lot of things for the local area of ​​Lishi County in recent years, and he, as the governor, is also ashamed of himself.
