Luo Yong and the others were thinking that with Liulang's awkward temperament, he would probably not go to the Machine House again in the future after that.
Unexpectedly, he went there a few days later. He didn't care what others said, and stayed with Feng Gou all day long.
Feng Gouchu came to Chang'an City from Li Shi. All his arithmetic foundation was only those that Luo Yong taught in Xipo Village a few years ago. Compared with some diligent students in Chang'an City, he also seemed a bit behind.
Fortunately, he was very aware of arithmetic and diligent. Goro Liuro taught him, so he learned very quickly.
Two or three days after the New Year, Luo Yong finally became a little more leisurely. Liulang suddenly came to him and told him that he would not want to go to the Bai family to study anymore. He wanted to enter the Machine House.
Among the brothers and sisters of the Luo family, only Liulang looked at it as if it was the most like a piece of study material. Luo Yong originally planned to let him stay in the Bai family for a while before finding a way to get him into the Imperial College.
After all, Dr. Chen and his colleague are now learning arithmetic with Luo Yong in the Machinery Floor. Luo Yong is now having some contact with some aristocratic families in Chang'an City. Thinking about the way, I should still have the opportunity to do this. No matter how bad I will always ask him to go to the Imperial College. After graduating from a good school, the starting point is high and the path in the future will be wider.
Compared with Imperial College, Luoshi Machinery House seems to be very inequality. Strictly speaking, it does not even count as a school.
Luo Yong asked him why he was like this, thinking that it was because of the Ba Niang of the Shi family?
Liulang said, "Although the learnings in Chang'an are good, I have learned the most in that machine shop."
Luo said to him with great sincerity: "Once you enter this machine shop, it will be very difficult to go to the Imperial College in the future. Even if you enter, others will be afraid that you will be much inferior to you."
Liulang replied: "When did you even be afraid that others would be inferior?"
Luo Yi was choked by him, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Thinking about it afterwards, this kid is clearly prepared.
Although Luo Yong himself was not afraid of being looked down upon, he must admit that being looked down upon was not good. For these small people at home, he naturally hoped that their lives would be smoother and tried not to withstand those things.
However, young people are often unwilling to follow the arrangements of adults, which is probably the rebellious period.
The forced melon is not sweet, Luo Yong had to fulfill Liulang's wish for the time being and asked him to go to Luo Family Machinery Shop, but he still hoped that he could leave a good impression with those men who often came over to listen to and discuss arithmetic, and perhaps there would be some other opportunities in the future.
I have been idle for a few days in the first lunar month, and it is about to come to the Lantern Festival, which is the Lantern Festival, which is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
During the Lantern Festival, there is no curfew in Chang'an City. From the 14th day of the first lunar month, the people in the city will go out to play, enjoy the lanterns and make friends. The entire Chang'an City will be shrouded in the festive atmosphere for a full three days.
In the past, Luo Yong had also celebrated the Lantern Festival in Chang'an City, but he felt it was very lively. He wanted to play and went out to play for a few times. He still stayed at home if he didn't want to play. At most, he was a little worried about whether the children at home would have safety issues if they played too late at night. The rest was nothing else.
Now that he is the magistrate of Chang'an County, the responsibility has suddenly become very heavy and there are many things to deal with. He can be said to be very busy these days.
Most people in Chang'an have a lot of fun during the Spring Festival this year, especially on Chang'an County, where biogas lamps are everywhere in the streets and alleys, which are very convenient to travel. Even in those few places, they do not feel terrifying.
There are many civilians in Chang'an County and many large households in Wannian County, so Chang'an County has always been more lively than Wannian County, and the environment is a little dirty and messy.
In recent years, it has been much better, with cement pavement everywhere, and last year, biogas pools were built. Anything that could rot and produce biogas was thrown into the biogas pools of various households, so it was rare on the streets.
During the Zhongyuan Festival this year, many people from Wannian County came to Chang'an County for a trip.
The most lively places in the city are in addition to Zhuque Street located between Chang'an County and Wannian County, and are located in the Guangdefang area of Xinghuafang. Xinghuafang has groceries from north to south, Guangdefang has a sister food shop, and there are also various shops, which are very lively and prosperous.
There are also some lively places in the south of the city, especially in the area near Anhua Gate. Not far from Anhua Gate, it is where the railway tracks are located.
After the Spring Festival, we are not idle. Engineering and education built a loom last year. After so many years of adjustments and improvements, the technology is now relatively mature. At the same time, a new spinning machine has also been released.
Using these two new machines at the same time can greatly improve the efficiency of weaving. Although the woven fabric looks rougher than the one hand-woven by a clever woman, as long as the price is slightly lower, such fabrics should be very easy to sell on the market.
After all, in this era of extremely low productivity, fine items such as fabrics are always rare, and many poor people are short of them.
Last year, there was a great harvest of white flowers in various parts of Hexi. Because Hexi had access to the wooden track, a large number of white flowers were transported from there to the Central Plains from last autumn and winter to the beginning of this year.
In the current Chang'an City, the price of white dough is roughly the same as that of mahjong. Due to the impact of a large number of white dough flowers, the price of hemp in the Central Plains has also dropped by about 20%.
Recently, in the morning court, some people have suggested that the large influx of Baidie in Hexi into the Central Plains may damage the mulberry and hemp production in the Central Plains. Once war starts again in the future and the business road is blocked, will the people in the Central Plains have no clothes to wear?
There are also those who sympathize with the difficulties of farmers. After all, as ordinary farmers, they could only exchange their excess grain and fabrics for money. Now that even fabrics are worthless, their future lives will definitely be even more difficult.
There are also strong debates among the people. Some people write poems to criticize the boycott of new cloth and express sympathy for farmers who sell cloth.
Some people wrote poems and said that they were talking big, but they couldn't see how many people in Chang'an could not afford to buy fabrics and wear clothes. In winter, they were only covered with thin old rags. In the capital, this was the case, let alone those remote places.
However, no matter how fierce the voices of these debates are or how fierce the opponents oppose them, the popularity of this new technology is beyond the reach of no one can stop it.
In addition to engineering, the people in the Ministry of Industry have basically mastered the technology of creating these new machines. The families that have installed manpower in engineering have more or less understood this new technology. Some people have only learned about the superficiality, while others have already started to build it themselves. Apart from some core components, they are afraid that they will not encounter too many problems.
Roche Machinery Workshop has also been building this kind of machine recently. The new spinning machine was originally jointly developed by Roche Machinery Workshop and Engineering. As for the loom, if Hengzhi helps and guides, there will naturally be no problems.
The buyer of this batch of new equipment is Luo Erniang. Last winter, the cashmere workshop in Hexi transported a lot of cashmere products, all of which were sold in groceries in the north and south. After the goods were sold, Erniang had a lot of funds. Not only did she purchase a large number of white-coloured flowers, but now she orders new spinning machines and looms from the machine shop. It is expected to open a new weaving workshop in Chang'an City.
The Ministry of Works is also building such a machine, and the saint is also very concerned. Luo Yong has been busy with this recently, guiding and helping the Ministry of Works’ artificial machines.
The work there is progressing very smoothly, and it is estimated that the first weaving machine will be built soon.
On this day, Luo Yong came out of the Ministry of Works, and a small official from the Ministry of Works sent him to the door. Seeing that there was no one around, he approached him and whispered to him:
"I heard that someone is going to be unfavorable to the Luo County Magistrate's family recently, you have to be careful."
Luo Yong was shocked when he heard this and asked, "Where did you hear this?"
The man said, "The news comes from its own way. The so-called "crawling rabbit dies and lacks dogs cook, and birds are full of good bows. Now that this new weaving machine has been built, some people are afraid that they will take action. In my opinion, it is better to avoid it for a while," he said.
Luo Yong had heard before that some people in history wanted to kill craftsmen after they could make artifacts, but they didn't expect that one day such things would fall on him, but he was more than just a craftsman, he was also an official.
But where can I avoid this? Go back to my hometown in Xipo Village? Na Luo Yong must be unwilling to accept it.
Besides, when people live in this world, they will inevitably have conflicts with others. If they are so afraid of fighting, as timid as a mouse, they will always escape, and even if they escape to the ends of the world, they will be afraid that they will find a place to enjoy peace forever.
So Luo Yong said to the man, "Thank you for your kindness, but this Chang'an City is really good. I, Luo, don't want to leave. If anyone wants to murder me, I, please tell them to come."
"Hey, I'm kind enough to remind you, why did you come to me?" The official of the Ministry of Works said dissatisfied.
"Goodbye." Luo Yong didn't say much to him, so he bowed his hands and left.
If Luo Yong had just said that he still believed the person in front of him, he would never believe him again after he said these words.
Since he could take such a great risk to inform Luo Yong, he should have a good impression of Luo Yong, and was worried and sympathetic about the situation that the Luo family was about to face. How could he be so easily impatient with Luo Yong?
This is true in Chang'an City. Sometimes it is really hard to distinguish between true and false.
If Luo Yong believed this person's cheating today, and was scared by this, he would have to clean up his belongings and run away to escape, which would really make people laugh.
Those who came up with such a plan looked down on him too much.
