The next day, when the Ma brothers left, they didn't bring anything else, but each of them brought a bedcloth back.

The velvet bedding was so soft and comfortable. I didn’t want to take it off after putting it on.

Such a bedding is also valuable. Not to mention the many goose-free velvet, the silk cloth alone has to be used up. The inside and outside are three layers, and the inside is made of slightly inferior fabrics bought from other places. The outer layer is made of the silk cloth given by the emperor.

At this time, a piece of silk cloth was about one foot or eight, about four feet long, which was only forty feet. This bedclothes were wide and large, and the three layers inside and outside were added together. More than one piece of silk cloth was used, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to wear it. However, if this kind of bedclothes could have a market, the people could also add some input to their homes by selling gooseberry every year.

After the Ma brothers returned home, they did not say much to other elders in the family. They just said a few words to their own mother-in-law and set off for Chang'an City soon.

The two brothers are not easy to say. They worked hard in Shannan for more than half a year this year. After finally returning to Lishi's hometown for a winter, they were invited by Luo Yong. They were about to go to Chang'an City again. They really didn't want to ride horses anymore, so they went out together in a carriage.

The road from them to Chang'an City from Shixian County was still acceptable. The two brothers sat in the car, wrapped in bedclothes they had brought from Luo Yong, and took a nap all the way to Chang'an City.

When they arrived near Tongguan, they met the workers and civilians who were building roads. They walked slowly on that section. After that section, there was a spacious and flat concrete road ahead. They didn’t know how stable and brisk it was when the carriage walked on it.

I heard that the official in charge of cattle and horses had reacted to the emperor a few days ago that the cement road was too hard and was not conducive to the cattle and horseshoe. Even if the hooves were nailed, the joints with the horse's legs would probably have some hindrance.

The emperor asked the ministers' suggestions in the court, and then a minister stood up and said it was very rude that there was nothing perfect in this world. The construction of cement roads obviously had more benefits than disadvantages. Such things that benefit the country and the people would have to look forward to it. Then they would just eat and sleep in the future and do nothing.

So in this way, the cement road was built vigorously.

As for whether the horse's hooves will be injured due to such cement roads, I have to leave it for time to verify. Even if there is a problem, I can only leave it for later and then slowly solve it.

As of now, everyone feels that riding on this cement road is very stable and comfortable, because the road is flat, the cattle and horses that pull the cart can also save a lot of effort.

After getting on the cement road, the Ma brothers felt that their carriage was much faster than before, and the car didn't shake much, and the itinerary was much easier. It felt like Chang'an City had arrived in just a few days.

There are now cement roads everywhere in Chang'an City. Even in this rainy and snowy weather, the roads are not muddy.

Due to the cold weather, Ma's Trading Company did not have many customers today. After his brothers arrived, their father soon came from the warehouse and talked to them.

The two brothers told their purpose for this trip, and then told their father all the time about Luo Yong's proposal and the room he had arranged when he invited them to visit the Luo family.

After hearing this, Ma's father mentioned a bedcloth worn by his eldest son or younger son. Although this bedcloth was so bad that it was worn by him these days, it was still a bit grim and wrinkled, but it was still a bit obvious.

After seeing it inside and out, he put it on himself, wrapped it up, sat cross-legged on the kang with his neck and sighed, "Luo Sanlang's wonderful thoughts!"

"Aye, I have been wearing this bedclothes for half a month and haven't washed them." Ma Jiu looked at his bedclothes and felt something was wrong in his heart, so he hurriedly said.

I saw him wave his hand and didn't answer his words at all: "You brothers, you have started to collect gooseberry these days."

"Now." Ma Silang bowed and said, "I'll go wash up first."

"Go and go." Dad Ma waved his hand and told him to go quickly.

"Aye..." Ma Jiu called out to his father again.

"You go too, take a good time to wash up, take a night off tonight, and start preparing for the guest house tomorrow." Mr. Ma said.

"..." Ma Jiulang glanced at the bedclothes on his father again, touched his nose, and left unwillingly.

The two of them went to wash and rest. Dad Ma sat alone in the house and thought for a long time, then went out in a carriage and wandered around the Chang'an City.

This time, since this restaurant can attract the Nara Saburo's food shop and the Ma family's management, he should not lose money no matter what. Since he can make money, he will naturally not hesitate to put more capital in and make the stall bigger.

It is the winter of the tenth year of Zhenguan. According to the algorithm of the Western Yuan Dynasty, it was 636 AD. This year, Chang'an City should not be considered valuable in every inch of land, but at this time the world was generally considered peaceful. The victory of foreign wars brought strong confidence to the people of this country. This confidence is reflected in the economy, which is a scene of prosperity and prosperity.

Because you have great confidence in the market, buying and selling will naturally prosper, and the real estate market is also rising steadily. In this case, if you want to find a suitable location in Chang'an City, you naturally don't have to think about it if you have less capital.

The Ma family has been operating in Chang'an City for so many years, but they have also established some relationship networks. There are many people in their relationship network, all of whom are merchants in Chang'an City.

Some time ago, Mr. Ma heard that the Lu Ji diner in Guangdefang was intentionally re-selling because the Lu family was from the Qinling Mountains. Recently, he heard that the saints were vigorously promoting the planting of Dumpling trees in the Qinling Mountains. Many local wealthy families rushed to their hometowns to develop. Several capable people in the Lu family were also transferred back, leaving a group of unsophisticated people here. In less than a year, they managed a good diner to death. The Lu family intentionally wanted to re-sell the diner because the price was too high and no one took over.

Speaking of which, this year, the capital outflow in their Chang'an City was also quite serious. Many people went back to their hometowns to plant trees, and many merchants went to the border to start cashmere transactions.

However, when those people have earned enough money, they will have to go back to Chang'an City to spend money sooner or later. In the eyes of Dad Ma, it is not a bad idea to take over the Luji Restaurant now.

The carriage was circling around Chang'an City, and Dad Ma finally decided to go to Luji Restaurant to check it out. When he arrived at the place, he took off the gray down robe on his body. He was shaking twice by the cold, took a breath slowly, got out of the car and went to discuss business with the Lu family.

He stayed in it for more than two hours after he came out again. He basically agreed on the matter of their Ma Family Store accepting Lu Ji Restaurant.

The next day, when the Ma Feiyang brothers woke up, their father had already told them to buy cement.

This time, Mr. Ma seemed to be spending a lot of money. Not only did he take over Lu Ji Restaurant, but he also planned to renovate it, transform the original one-story building into two-story building, and also build several fire walls to ensure heating on the second floor to a certain extent.

With the popularity of fire kangs, fire walls are now quite common in Chang'an City. They first appeared in the palace, and later some senior officials and royal relatives rushed to follow suit.

To this day, Chang'an people basically know that the firewall is a thing, but it is not easy to build a wall, and it will increase the consumption of firewood and firewood in vain, so ordinary people do not do this at home.

The Massachusetts Trading Houses, demolishing houses, and building houses, this time the Massachusetts Trading Company was really quick.

Many people have not yet realized what happened. Why is Ma's business willing to spend so much money to take over the Lu family's restaurant before they can be found? Most of the house has been built.

Many people in Chang'an City couldn't understand it. With the financial resources of the Ma family, it was definitely difficult to eat the Luji diner. The Ma family used to be selling goods, so why did they spend a lot of money to start a diner?

However, there is also a vague news that the Ma family is going to cooperate with Lishi Luosanlang this time. I don’t know whether the person who released these news has a suspicion in the Ma family, or whether the blind cat met a dead mouse and guessed it. After all, the Ma family and Naluo Sanlang are both from Lishi, which can easily remind them of one place.

The two Ma Feiyang brothers have focused on the acquisition of gooseberry these days. They want to run a guest house in Chang'an City, intending to imitate the layout of the house that Luo Sanlang showed them, but they do not need to transport gooseberry from Lishi County, and can be purchased directly from the surrounding areas of Chang'an City.

I thought that since Luo Sanlang could show that room to him and the other two, he would not be afraid of what they learned. As long as the business here can be done, the gooseberry that Luo Sanlang had hoarded before would naturally not worry about selling it, but no matter what, he would always give him a gift.

When Luo Yong received a letter from the Ma family entrusted someone to send from the inn, his mood was also a little complicated.

A few days ago, I told my sister about opening a food shop in Chang'an City. Why did the matter come to my mind so quickly?

The Ma family is also very sincere. Yan Ming will prepare a next shop for them at the street location of his own living room. The rent for the first year is exempted. Starting from the second year, a certain amount of rent will be charged according to the average rent level in Guangdefang.

The shop they bought this time was next to the West City and the south gate of Guangdefang. It was considered a good location. Luo Yong knew that any good location such a good location would definitely be slightly more expensive than the ones on the street next to it. The Ma family only charged them equal fees elsewhere, which was already a considerable discount. As for the first year's rent that was exempted, it should be Luo Yong's creative fee.

Luo Yong told Aunt Luo about this. Although Aunt Luo was a little nervous, her attitude was still very clear. This time, she decided to run this store in Chang'an City.

Lin Wulang was very happy to listen. He also wanted to go to Chang'an City to see it. With the Ma family taking care of him, it would not be too difficult for them to be there.

As a result, on that night, they returned to the Lin family to talk about this with Lin’s father and mother, but were strongly obstructed by the two elders of the Lin family.

In the eyes of the two elders of the Lin family, the couple is working with Luo Sanlang in the Xu family's house, which is temporary. They will come back when they want to come back. After all, they are so close to home, and they are still real farmers now. But once they go to Chang'an City to run that food shop, can the couple still be considered farmers in the future?

Look at those Wang Dang, and then look at the Xu family’s previous situation. After breaking away from the identity of this farmer and losing their land, what will their future life be guaranteed, and where will their descendants take root?
