In addition to Heng Zhi Azhi and others, Luo Erniang also returned to Chang'an with Luo Yong this time.

Luo Erniang has been developing in Hexi for so many years. Now she has funds and technology on hand. There are three well-managed workshops that can continuously provide supply. She returns to Chang'an at this time, naturally to open up the market in the Central Plains.

Erniang is Luo Yong's sister, and Bai Yimao can know something, so Erniang is naturally very clear about it.

According to Luo Yong, the Jingtieshan iron ore has a huge reserve. By then, so much iron ore will be developed. If you want to sell it to the east, you will have to cross Yanzhi Mountain. In addition, the distance is long and the transportation cost is extremely high.

If you want to sell it to the Western Regions, the iron thing is very sensitive and cannot easily leave the customs. Guo Xiaoke will definitely not dare to do that.

Therefore, in the early stage of the development of this iron ore, the main sales market was the local area of ​​Longxi.

There is only one place in Longxi, with a small population and limited consumption capacity. A large amount of iron ore is impacting the market. If nothing unexpected happens, local iron prices will drop soon, which also makes laying railway tracks possible.

When Guo Xiaoke really made money, it was after the railway tracks were laid and the new type of transportation, the train, was put into use, greatly improving the transportation capacity and reducing the transportation cost.

At that time, the iron ore on their side can be transported to Liangzhou and other places, and even sold to the Central Plains. For transportation, just burn some charcoal and no need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources. There will be a lot of charcoal in Shiyiwu, just on the territory under Guo Xiaoke's jurisdiction.

By then, many products in Longxi can be transported to Longdong and even the Central Plains via this railway track, including the output of Luo Erniang in the two workshops in Changle County.

In addition, Erniang also plans to buy a large number of low-priced white dough flowers from Longxi and transport them to Zhongyuan. Then they set up workshops in Zhongyuan. The advantage of setting up workshops in the sales place is that they can adjust production in a timely manner according to customer needs, and penetrate the local market more deeply, and also help them absorb talent resources from the local area.

Luo Erniang is rich now. In her early years, she and Peng Er and others followed the Zhao family caravan and went all the way from Xipo Village, my hometown to Liangzhou City. At that time, I could save as much as possible. I wish I could even bring food out of my home, including clothes, shoes, socks, bedding, etc.

This time, I went on the road with light luggage. As long as I could buy it with money or recreate it after I arrived in Chang'an City, I wouldn't bring it with me. I just brought it with me money and some things that I couldn't buy anywhere else.

Luo Yong brought few things here, mainly his disciples, some property, and a donkey.

After all, this donkey has been raised for so many years and has developed feelings for it. It is absolutely impossible to throw it away. This time they set out from Changle County and took a wooden carriage all the way. They also got a carriage for the five pairs to stay in the carriage.

In addition to five pairs, there were also several jars of sauce in the car. When everyone moved the jars to its car earlier, the donkey was still protesting. In total, it couldn't turn around and moved things to it.

Later, someone opened a jar of sauce and fed him a spoonful of sauce. The donkey calmed down and fell in love with these jars along the way, and got along very well.

It is always difficult to go out, but fortunately the season is good now, and the traffic has been much better in the past two years than before. In Longyou Road, even if the wooden tracks in some places have not been repaired, at least there are cement roads to walk on, which eliminates a lot of bumps.

When they arrived in Liangzhou City, Luo Yong brought Tian Chonghu and his sister, met the Zhao family, rested for a day, and soon set off again.

Although there are no wooden tracks east of Liangzhou City, the cement roads seem a bit old, and there are already potholes in some places, but there are quite a lot of caravans on this road, and the commerce along the road is relatively developed. As long as you spend money, you can basically buy some other items along the way.

The reason for this situation is mainly because of the development of the white-layer flower industry.

Although the cashmere and umam soap industry was also driven by the cashmere and umam soap industry in the early years, it was really a slight comparison with the impact of this white flower.

Their group set off in Qiuli, and as they walked along the way, the weather gradually became colder.

Fortunately, when I passed Yanzhi Mountain, the climate was not too cold. The temperature on the mountain was relatively low, but it was not very cold, so I didn’t suffer much.

Walking southeast from Liangzhou City, you can also see some white flowered fields along the way. Most of the white flowered flowers in the field have been collected at this time, and only some flower poles remain in the fields.

I heard from some locals that they have planted white flowers in their area. When the price of white flowers is high two years ago, many people have made money, but the planting risks are high. If there is a rain before the autumn harvest, then the white flowers in their entire area will be affected by seedlings. Now the price of white flowers is getting lower and lower, and many people will not plan to plant next year. It is more cost-effective to grow corn.

Corn, gourd, and pepper are all very common products along the way.

When passing by some places, some locals also heard that Li Shi Luosanlang passed by the local area and came to visit the inn. Some were also hosting banquets and treating them, and some were also offering money and silk and gifts.

Luo Yong has never accepted money, silk gifts, and he doesn't go to banquets very much. Instead, he often keeps those people at the inn to eat some simple meals, talk with them, and learn about the local customs and conditions.

Although Luo Yong is only a small county magistrate, his reputation has spread widely. In recent years, he has been in Longxi, which can be said to have driven the economy of the entire Longyou Road and has also had an impact on the surrounding areas.

Among those who came to visit him, there were many people with temperament. Many of them had higher official positions than Luo Yong, but they had no airs. They respected Luo Yong very well, spoke very readily, and showed some feelings of worrying about the country and the people.

In addition, it is inevitable that you will see some pickled and corrupted people, and there are also those who are self-righteous.

In the eyes of outsiders, Li Shi Luosanro, who is only twenty-six years old this year, may still be a little bit too young and easier to deceive.

How could these people know that Luo Yong was a human being in two lifetimes and his mind was much more mature than his peers.

Besides, in the 21st century, when the Internet was opened, people and things could not be seen. In that era, many young people had a much greater understanding of the world than their own experience.

Facing those people, Luo Yong did not expose it. He listened and watched along the way, remembering everything he saw and heard in his heart.

These experiences will eventually become a piece of information in his mind, and may come in handy in the future.

When their group arrived in Chang'an City, it was already winter.

After seven years of separation, Chang'an City is much more lively than before, which shows that the country has been prosperous and the market has been prosperous in recent years.

There was no change in those city wall buildings, but there were a lot of pedestrians and merchants, especially the railway station outside the city. Even in the middle of winter, pedestrians and goods still had a lot of traffic.

Everyone in Chang'an learned about their arrival today in advance and came to Chang'an early to greet them.

Before Luo Yong and the others arrived at the city gate, they saw Si Niang and the others on horseback greeting. Si Niang and Wulang are now old, even Liu Lang and Qi Niang are fifteen years old this year. They have lived in the Bai family for many years and are studying literature and martial arts with the Bai family's children. Riding horses and driving chariots is also a compulsory practice.

Thinking back to the little dolls who had just woken up, Liulang Qiniang was still crawling around on the ground with saliva. Now, seeing them dressed in exquisite and neatly and riding on horseback, this feeling is really magical and very delightful.

Among them were some young ladies and wives, including the Bai family and the friends of Siniang Wulang and the others.

Si Niang and the others ran to Luo Yong's car and squeezed everyone else down. Even the driving position was taken by Goro Liulang. They can do the job of driving the car now, and they have been professionally trained, and they are no worse than the coachmen.

Erniang hasn't seen Si Niang and the others for many years. A group of people sat in the car and were talking and laughing. Outside the car, there were young men and women walking around. From time to time, they would talk a few words, chattering along the way, and it was so lively.

"Where is sister?"

"Sister is waiting not far outside the city."

"They set up a tent on the roadside in front, burning the stove and eating hot tea, which was so comfortable."

"Fei'er is here too?"

"Here I'm here, my brother-in-law is holding her, so she just sticks to her brother-in-law and hangs it on her chest like a big bag all day long."

"My sister said that my brother-in-law has spoiled him."

"It's almost half a year since I was born in the confinement period, and I'm growing very hard!"

“…”

Then Fei'er is the daughter of Aunt Luo and Lin Wulang. Luo Yong did not expect that Aunt would give her daughter a name like Lin Fei'er.

Perhaps it is because she has seen the market outside over the years and recalled her past recession in Xipo Village, so she hopes that her daughter can fly everywhere in this world in the future. Let’s take a look.

The little girl was very loud. When Luo Yong was still on the road, she heard it from a distance. She thought to herself that this was her niece crying, so she heard Si Niang and the others say that Fei'er was crying again.

When I got closer, I saw the aunt holding a big fat baby in her hand and coming out of the blue cloth tent with everyone. While coaxing the doll in her arms, she quickly walked towards Luo Yong and the others.

Uncle Bai Er Hou Lin and others were all there. Everyone greeted each other, but they were crying by a little baby and didn't say a few words, but no one cared about it. It was always good that the atmosphere was here.

Luo Yong took the little baby from the aunt's arms and hugged her, but she was so disappointed that she cried, so she had to turn over and hand it over to Lin Wulang next to her.

"This is sleepy, this kid will have a bad temper when he is sleepy." Lin Wulang smiled. The baby was in his hands and he did not cry.

Luo used his head to look at the doll in Lin Wulang's arms carefully. He looked white and fat. I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but I always felt that this kid had the willful spirit of being afraid of heaven and earth.
