In the third month of the lunar calendar, the spring plowing season was about to enter. Luo Yong's disciples who went to Chang'an City a few years ago also followed the caravan of the Ma Family Trading Company and returned to Lishi County from Chang'an City.

These people went to Chang'an City last autumn. They gained a lot of knowledge along the way. When they arrived at Chang'an City, they seemed to have opened the door to a new world. Now that they have returned to their hometown, they have some intention of showing off.

As a result, when I came back, I found that I hadn't seen each other in just a few months. Lishi County was actually much more lively than when they left. The Xu brothers even opened such a large guesthouse at the entrance of Xipo Village.

Luo Yong learned that they would come to Xipo Village this day and ordered two banquets at the Xu family's guest house early.

"There are several accents in this hall. I was so excited just now. I thought I was in a guest house in Chang'an City." During the meal, a disciple of Luo Yong sighed.

Although it is just a rural guesthouse, there are merchants from all over the hall, and when they speak, they have mixed accents from all over the place. Some people simply talk in their hometown dialect so loudly, and the locals don’t understand what they are saying.

"It can be compared with the guest house in Chang'an City." Xu Dalang smiled a little restrainedly.

"There is nothing incomparable. There is also a small guest house in Chang'an City."

"Even if that place is a small guest house, the price is not cheap. When I first went there, fortunately, Ma Jiulang was there, so I helped us find a small courtyard with a suitable price to live in first."

"Ma Jiulang is back with you this time?" Luo Yong asked.

"Not." A disciple replied: "He went out of Chang'an with me, and after passing Tongguan, he went east. He said he wanted to go to the Jiangnan area to take a look."

"Master, have you ever heard that there are also a large number of swallows sold to the Jiangnan area in Lu? "Another disciple said.

"I haven't heard of it." Luo Yong had heard these disciples talk about this before, but he didn't pay much attention to it afterwards. Now it seems that there is new news.

"I heard from a businessman who often travels to and from the Jiangnan region in Chang'an City that Yan Erfei from Nalu Real Estate does not use dianthus chains, but mostly uses pottery chains." The disciple said.

"Can the ceramic chain bear weight?" Before Luo Yong could speak, Xu Sanlang couldn't help it. The ceramics were not that strong in their impression.

"It's not very good, so many merchants collected bamboo chains from Chang'an City and resold them to Jiangnan. Their car could also be used when replaced with the chains here." Another disciple next to him explained.

Obviously, these disciples who went to Chang'an City had studied and discussed this issue together before, and they were quite aware of it.

"Tsk, they did it on purpose, right?" Someone immediately said dissatisfied.

"The pottery chain is not easy to use, so they have never thought of any solution?" Luo Yong asked.

"I heard that I am studying the production of iron chains. The parts of the chain are small and difficult to cast. Some of them are made at present, and the price is quite high, and few people can afford it." said the disciple who was familiar with the matter.

"It's good." Luo Yong nodded and said, "When their iron chain making technology is mature, we can also buy iron chains from them."

It seems that the Qian brothers are not only good at copying other people's skills. They also have a certain spirit of study and progress, so it is good for them to develop. To be honest, Luo Yong doesn't want to be unique at all.

When a tree stands out in the forest, the wind will destroy it.

But if there are several big trees in the same forest, the situation will naturally be much better.

The master and disciples were eating wine and food in the Xu family's guesthouse and talking about their own experiences. The meal lasted from afternoon until the evening.

After dinner, Luo Yong naturally wanted to go back to his yard to rest, and his disciples were temporarily settled in the Lixu family's guest house.

The yard of the Xu family's guest house is large enough for many guest rooms. Luo Yong packed a few big shops for his disciples to live in. After a while, these disciples would stay in Xipo Village to help Luo Yong do farm work, and food and accommodation were all solved in the Xu family's guest house, and Luo Yong paid for it.

The Xu brothers were unwilling to ask for it, but Luo Yong insisted on giving it to such a large group of young and strong people. How could they pay for the Xu family if they want to eat and drink? They were not helping their Xu family with their work.

But the price is still discounted. Basically, Aunt Luo and his wife's daily turnover will be enough for their daily expenses.

For a period of time afterwards, thick smoke was rolling everywhere in and outside Xipo Village. People in the radius of dozens of miles knew that it was the disciples of Luo Sanlang's family burning dirt.

Wang Dang and the others have dug a lot of soil pits recently, but now they have to fill in fertilizer and then plant seedlings.

If the dirt manure that has just been burned is not good, just use it directly. It needs to be put away to remove the anger. Fortunately, Luo Yong had a lot of it last autumn, and he did not plant winter wheat last year, so these fertilizers are just used to plant seedlings.

The closer it is to Qingming, the less confident Luo Yong is. I don’t know if the merchants who signed a contract with him last year can come to the appointment this year.

Nowadays, the traffic is inconvenient and information is blocked. Even if the other party breaks the contract, Luo Yong can't do anything to them. He can't travel thousands of miles to argue with them, and he may not be able to find someone else.

After waiting for a while, in mid-March, a caravan transporting saplings finally arrived in Lishi County.

Luo Yong was very happy when he heard the news and rode a donkey to greet him.

Those who came with those people were Ma Silang of the Ma family, who was Ma Feiyang's brother. There were many uncles and uncles of the Ma family, one ranked fourth and the other ranked ninth. This was the case where men and women were ranked separately. If they were put together, there would be more.

This time Ma Silang came here to pay Luo Yong for the payment. Some time ago, Luo Yong found the Ma family in Lishi County and negotiated with them about borrowing money. The Ma family agreed to wait for the merchants who transported the saplings to arrive, so they arranged for people to come and pay. Now Ma Silang is here.

The reason why I did not lend the money to Luo Yong in advance was that it was because the Luo family had no adults and lived in a place with few people at the entrance of the village. I was afraid that some people would know that there was a lot of money in his family and would have evil thoughts again at that time.

"It must be hard for everyone to go all the way. I prepared drinks in the Xu family's guest house in front. Let's go there to rest first." Looking at the carriage of Duzhong tree seedlings with Ye Baoer, Luo Yong couldn't stop smiling.

"Luo Sanlang is polite." The merchant walking in front also smiled and bowed to Luo Yong. It was really hard to go along the way, and it would be better to have ready-made wine and entertainment.

"I'll let Silang go with this trip." After a few greetings with the merchant, Luo Yong greeted Ma Silang again.

"No need to worry, no need to worry." Ma Silang smiled.

Although he came to pay, he was the first one at all. This was almost the same as telling the people in the city that their Ma family was ranked first in front of Luo Sanlang.

Although Luo Sanlang is young and has a good face, his future development is worth looking forward to. The Ma family is very willing to invest. Although this Eucommia sapling sounds a bit unreliable, it is unknown whether Luo Sanlang has any other tricks. Besides, even if he loses, it is nothing. At most, he will just pay back the money slowly. Luo Sanlang still has those good things in his hands. Are you still worried that he can't afford it?

The Xu family's guest house is just a little in front of the entrance of Xipo Village, with a high gate and a large courtyard, which is particularly conspicuous in this rural and barren land.

There are high buildings in front of the yard, and the hall downstairs. The large yard behind is very spacious. A square guest house is cleaned very clean, giving people a good first impression and the price is fair. The store brothers look decent and the past merchants are very relieved to live there.

At this time, several tables of food were already placed in the hall, and the order of serving was not paid attention to. No matter whether it was cold or hot, just put a large table in the local area. For the porters who had been walking on the road for more than a month, it felt very rich.

"Let's just order the saplings first." The merchant said.

"Okay, then I'll order the saplings first." Luo Yongzhi was worried that the saplings would be stolen while eating. The saplings were not easy to transport. From Qinling Mountains to Lishi County, it was a long distance from Qinling Mountains, so it was necessary to be careful.

After ordering the saplings, they paid the payment at the price they had agreed to. Then Luo Yong also fulfilled his promise and signed an order contract for cashmere sweaters with the other party. Then the few people sat down to have a meal.

The porters didn't care about that much. After counting the saplings, they just ate them first. A group of people ate the sea scattered. After the meal, the guesthouse also provided them with hot water for bathing.

Seeing that these people were really dirty, Luo Yong asked Lin Wulang to go to the Luo family yard to help him get a piece of soap.

A piece of stinky soap like a sugar cake was placed on the table and cut it into many small pieces, and each person divided them a small piece.

Luo Yong has been making it slowly recently and has accumulated some soap at home. He made all of these soaps into sugar cakes and placed them on the shelves. He is not in a hurry to sell them. When it is sold, his little goods are not enough.

At this time, he brought a wet cloth towel and demonstrated to everyone how to use this soap. This thing is easy to use. Although it was the first time to come into contact, he understood it after looking at it, so he took one to take a shower.

"This smelly soap is really useful?" The porters all left, but the merchant and his several close relatives were not in a hurry to leave. The merchant was always very sensitive to business opportunities.

"You try." Luo handed him the soapy cloth towel on his hand.

The merchant didn't think much about it, took the wet cloth and started scrubbing it on the back of his hand.

Among their group, he was one of the best cleansing things and could not get anything out if he thought he could. As a result...

"..." Looking at the large black cloth scarf in the middle, even though he had seen countless scenes since he was nearly fifty years old, he couldn't help but his old face turned red and his ears were hot for a moment.
