337. The song of the white stack

Tang Jian’s novel is not long and has quite concise words. In order to give readers a better reading experience, Luo Yong found someone to illustrate this partial novel.

Because there are few words and more pictures, the final effect is basically the same as every passage with an illustration, which looks a bit like the fairy tale books that Grandma Luo bought for him when Luo Yongxiao.

Luo Yongren made a carved paper, brushed ink and copied it, and then colored it after copying, and finally bound it into a book and pasted the cover. In this way, the first batch of novels were printed.

The cover is also very exquisite, with good paper, printed with a handsome young man in white coat, the background is a prosperous city and a blue sky...

"Does the guests want to buy wine?" On this day, the winery had just sent off a group of guests, and another group came immediately.

After the beginning of spring this year, more and more Hu merchants traveling to Changle County, especially those in Gaochang and Yanqi, who were constantly commuting on this business road, buying needles, wine and bacon. They were not idle all winter long. Before, only a few merchants came, but gradually more and more later.

"Now, this liquor is still sold at 50% off?" asked the Gaochang merchants.

"That's right." The old man on the cabinet said: "The county magistrate said that since the liquor has been sold at 50% off for so long, it is a bit inappropriate to increase the price now, so he said that the liquor will be sold at 50% off in the future."

When the Gaochang merchants heard this, they were very happy. This was their first time to come to Changle County. Those who went back said that the liquor in Changle County has been sold at a 50% discount recently. When they came, they were worried that they would not be able to catch up with this good price.

"I want the best one, and we have a hundred jars with us." They had agreed on how much liquor to buy in total this time. Since the price is not a problem at this time, just buy according to the quantity planned.

"Okay. One hundred jars of white wine!" The old man instructed a young man next to him, "There are several guests coming from afar, and the road is long and it is not easy to transport goods. You can bring one hundred and one jars with them."

These Gaochang merchants think that Changle's store is really meticulous and thoughtful.

Soon, the liquor from time to time was moved to the open space in the hall. The Gaochang merchants carefully checked the wine jars, picked up a jar from time to time to weigh them, and finally paid at the counter after confirming that there was no problem.

The old man on the cabinet accepted the silver they brought, carefully looked at the quality, also weighed the weight, and then accepted it after confirming it was correct.

Then he took off the basic book from a wooden rack behind the counter: "A new book has been released in the county recently. If you buy 50 taels in this store, you will get a gift. These five books are for you. I hope that the guests will come to our Changle County in the future."

Seeing that the basic book was printed beautifully, the few Gaochang merchants didn't think much about it, so they took it away and put it in their arms.

After that, I took it out and looked at it carefully, and it felt quite interesting. But after all, as a man, I read this book about a woman's love story. I also read it. I didn't have much feelings, but I just felt the picture album.

Exquisite, novel stories.

After returning to Gaochang Kingdom, as soon as they entered the city, a local rich family asked them to buy wine, so they gave the rich family a booklet.

Unexpectedly, this was amazing. In just two days, I heard that the daughter of the rich family was in a devilish way. The little ladies who played with her were also talking about what to go to Baidicheng all day long, and why did they say that they would not marry a boy who was not a Baidicheng!

After all the five booklets were sent out, the women in Gaochang City were about to make a fuss.

Women are born with fantasy about love, but in this closed era, women's imagination of love is greatly limited, and their imagination is limited by the environment. Then this novel called "Song of White Drops" opened the door to a new world for them.

This routine of romance novels is sometimes quite old-fashioned in the eyes of young women who read countless books in the 21st century, but for women of this era, it is a brand new, pioneering and infinity-won existence!

In the days that followed, local merchants kept bringing this book back from Lishi County, and each book could be sold at an extremely high price.

The emergence of this white-fold song brought great shock to the women of the world, and at the same time, it also had a huge impact on the marriage and love market.

I heard that someone bought white cloth from a small country west of Gaochang, sold it to Gaochang City, and sold it to a very good price.

In Chang'an City, thousands of miles away from Gaochang, a white craze has also set off recently.

Luo Yong sent a set of carved plates and several samples to Chang'an City, and Xing Er immediately started printing. In less than a few days, the book "Song of White Drops" was put on the shelves in North and South Groceries. The shops that cooperated with North and South Groceries also placed a small bookshelves at their doorsteps, and then slowly put a shelf of "Song of White Drops" that cost five cents a book, and sold as much as you want every day.

Now in this Chang'an city, who has never heard of the story of "The Song of White Drill"?

When a group of young ladies gather, the topic is often inseparable from "Song of White Drops". Everyone knows the names of the male and female protagonists in the book, and almost all of them have to develop the second-dimensional idol worship.

As for the white cloth and white coats, I heard from some knowledgeable people that there are some places in the Western Regions that can indeed produce this cloth, which is indeed very rare.

It is said that there is a plant that can produce white velvet flowers. Local people pick the velvet flowers, then peel off the center of the flower inside, spin the white fine velvet into thread, and weave it into cloth. This process is labor-consuming and time-consuming, so the white stacked cloth is quite expensive.

The women in Chang'an were fascinated by the story of Baidicheng, but many men disagreed. The young men in Baidicheng and the young men are all unparalleled in the world. They are clearly made up to deceive people, but those women believe this.

On this day, several young men gathered together to talk about this matter, and were quite angry.

"These women are really brainless."

"It's just a fictional book that can make them so intoxicated."

"I heard that the little lady of the Xie family said she was going to quit the marriage?"

"She is afraid she is a devil."

"Why did I hear that your family is going to propose marriage with the Ye woman? Ye will not respond to it."

"She is dreaming now, how can she respond?"

"She said that she was a little confused for a while and her mind couldn't turn around. She told me to wait a little longer."

"Then are you waiting?"

"Will I wait for her? Do I really think that I, Xu Si, can't marry me in this life?"

"What's your plan?"

"My mother has already gone to ask for the Zheng woman for me."

"I advise you to slow down. I heard that the Zheng woman has been so hampered recently, so she told them that she would not agree."

"She shouldn't be useless, marriage has been the words of the matchmaker since ancient times."

"Don't escape from home again then."

"There are enough women running away from home in Chang'an City."

"It's just that the north and south groceries are cheap."

"I heard that Wei's daughter, a delicate young lady from the gentry, had disobeyed her parents' orders and went to work in groceries in the north and south. Her family had wanted to hang her before, and asked her to suffer some hardship outside and then go back by herself. She never thought that she had done this for more than a year."

"The parents' destiny is sometimes not easy to do. Those who are desperate, those who have to hang themselves and jump into the well. How many parents in the world can really be cruel."

"Those who can be cruel to this will not be a thing."

"If I want to tell me, the Luo Coffin Board is the worst. I have published some broken books, which makes these little ladies in Chang'an City abnormal."

"Isn't it just to sell the white stack of cloth that I haven't heard that they are growing cotton in Changle County now?"

"This is too dark!"

"No matter how good his white stack is, I just won't buy it!"

"Yes! I just don't buy it!"

These young men were filled with righteous indignation and made an appointment to resolutely resist the white cloth, so as not to let the coffin board succeed in its wishful thinking.

Then, a few days later, news came from the north and south groceries, saying that a batch of white cloth has arrived recently, and this year only one batch has been released.

This batch of goods was bought by Luo Erniang, who was in Longxi, and worked hard to buy the Hu merchants in the Western Regions. She also asked the female workers in her workshop to weave it into a white cloth. All the fabrics were dyed, which was the original color of the white cloth. The men and women could find someone to dye it by themselves after buying it, and then cut it into clothes.

On the day when this batch of goods was put on the shelves, the groceries in the north and south were almost all crowded by servants from various families. They were really like robbery. The fabric on a small shelf was stolen in a blink of an eye.

A few days later, some handsome young men dressed in white cloth clothes appeared in Chang'an City.

Not to mention, this white stack is indeed a bit different from linen silk. The fabric is thin but not greasy, and it is soft but not slippery. Compared with linen, it is a bit more detailed and more friendly than silk. Young men and women walked on the street wearing this white stack of clothes, which is a brand new landscape in Chang'an City.

As for the teenagers who had previously vowed that they would never buy white cloth, they were making trouble with their mother at this time.

"Aye, I heard that there are white cloths in the Western Regions, why don't we send our family to buy them?"

"The Western Regions are thousands or tens of thousands of miles away from here. Who are you going to ask to buy it for you?" He ignored him.

"If there was no white cloth, my marriage would not have been completed in this life." The young man refused to obey.

"Oh, there are only a few people in Chang'an City wearing white coats, and the others are no longer married. You should study hard and don't think about these things."

"If you don't buy me a white stack of cloth, I won't study anymore."

"What did you say?"

"I won't read anymore!"

"Look at me, I won't beat you to death, an unfilial son!"

"If you don't read it, you won't read it!"

"Don't run away, wait for me!"

"..." Why is it so messy?

Speaking of which, if these young men and women who are at the age of marriage are in the future, that is, the age of the second grade of junior high school, the second attributes of these middle schools will be really lively as soon as the second attributes explode.

Recently, many people have been so confused about the white cloth stuffing incident. The teenagers have very simple wishes. They just want to wear white cloth stuffings.

As for the little ladies in Chang'an City...

Recently, it is popular for young ladies to go out together, ride the swallows to the outside of Chang'an City to pick mulberry trees, hang a bamboo basket on the handlebars, wear them cleanly and beautifully every morning, and come back in the evening, and ride the swallows through the streets and alleys with dust.

"Tsk tsk, look at their body."
