Women from rich families rushed to buy things as if they were free.
Women from poor families also went in. Most of them looked around on the first floor. The things on the first floor were relatively close to the people.
Some people looked through the big glass outside and then turned around to continue strolling.
Many women with young children in the East Market brought their children to work or buy things. Princess Yongmu once gave out a lot of baby carriers.
It was the same now. If they had children, they could go to Li Family Zhuangzi's place and ask them to bring their children here. They could put a small fingerprint on their children and register them.
Usually, they would come the next day or go to Li Family Zhuangzi's shop and tell them where they could get them. The women would bring their children to get them.
One baby would be sent once. Some children fell sick and didn't make it. Their families would cry and bury them with the carriers.
Rich people bought baby carriers after receiving the carriers. Or they bought unqualified bearings from Li Family Zhuangzi and found someone to make baby carriers.
Unqualified bearings didn't meet the standards of bicycles, propeller boats, and ships.
When there was no problem pushing baby carriers, others bought them and put them on the carriage.
Envoys from foreign countries also bought them. If they didn't work, they would take them back as tribute.
Tubo people were rich. They couldn't buy qualified bearings alone. They bought ships and took the bearings back.
Not all the people were rich. They found their own ways. They knew what the bearings looked like and used wood to pick them.
Baby carriers didn't need to bear too much weight. They could even be pushed without ball bearings. Carriages in the past didn't have ball bearings.
When buying groceries, the women pushed their children in their carriages and put things on the carriages.
Those who didn't push the carriages put their children in front of their chests or behind their backs. The bigger ones were on their backs and the smaller ones were in their arms.
When the babies needed to sleep, they would sit inside. When the babies woke up, they would look outside.
The smaller ones couldn't sit. The carriers would be adjusted horizontally or diagonally.
When Wen Tian Lan Xiang Pavilion opened for business, the people brought their children to take a look. They nodded in relief and went back to their own business.
They knew the power behind Wen Tian Lan Xiang Pavilion. They also knew that Wen Tian Lan Xiang Pavilion donated a lot of money to the border.
In the past, they didn't dare to enter the building because they didn't have money. They were afraid of being laughed at.
Now, they also entered. They couldn't afford it.. Li Dongzhu's women's place. Would she laugh at them? Who in the world could be richer than her? She could be laughed at by anyone.
Princess Yongmu sat in front of the window and looked at the people below. The people in the East Market were busy.
"Princess, what book would you like to choose?" Xiao Lan brought over two bowls of tea and sat across from Princess Yongmu.
"I don't want to look. I just want to stare blankly." Princess Yongmu shook her head.
The sun shone in to warm her up, but she couldn't read. It was more interesting to watch the people coming and going in the East Market.
"The ground in the market is all big cement." Xiaolan had just discovered that the east and west markets were originally dirt roads with drainage ditches.
The streets of Chang 'an were paved with bluestone. Some of the streets were paved with stones, while others were paved with mud.
There were also people raising chickens and livestock in the streets. It was dirty and messy.
Later, it was cleaned up and the two markets were paved with yellow sand. Now, it had become cement.
There would be holes at regular intervals. The surroundings looked flat, but in fact, the holes were the lowest.
As long as there was a slight slope, the water would flow into the hole after the rain.
Under the hole, there was still a cement channel, and the water gathered and flowed out.
"There is a lot of cement, and it can't be used up." Princess Yongmu still didn't know who paid for it.
She had two choices in her heart, Li Family Zhuangzi and her father.
Why would Bi Goo pay for it? The management fees paid by the East and West markets were given to her father.
"Father was poor at that time and couldn't afford to raise soldiers, so there was Heavenly Earth.
Father couldn't take out enough money for the tools to dig the salt well in a short period of time.
He threw the Winged Knights to Li Lang and said that Heavenly Earth had 10% of Li Lang's profits, so he could use it.
At present, the imperial court is rich, father is rich, and Li Lang is printing money. Isn't it interesting? "
Princess Yongmu's eyes were bright. Looking at the people below, she felt a kind of vitality.
Xiaolan didn't dare to talk about Li Longji, so she said something else. "The various gateways of the water network are interesting. If there is a drought, the gateways can be sealed and used as reservoirs."
"Li Lang had thought it through when he designed it. With the addition of the wells, father doesn't have to abandon the people of Guanzhong and go to Luoyang."
Princess Yongmu knew that when the emperor went to Luoyang, he would watch a group of people run to eat. Some of the people of Guanzhong also followed, and the others lived a difficult life.
Whenever there was a drought in Henan or Guanzhong, it meant that countless people lost their lives.
Princess Yongmu knew the situation, but she didn't know the history.
In history, there was a locust plague in Shandong, followed by a drought in Guanzhong. Tubo sent troops, Tuqi Shi allied with the White Coat Arabs, and Tujue sent troops.
The Tujue's troops were broken by Hao Lingquan, and the Tujue's Khan Mozi was killed by him.
Guo Zhiyun defeated Tubo, and Tang Jiahui sent Ashina Xian to deal with Su Lu.
At this time in history, a group of generals had fought one classic battle after another around the Great Tang.
With Li Yi's reality, he planned ahead, spent money, and researched firearms.
Originally, Tubo's request for peace was rejected, and the Tujue's request for peace was accepted. Instead, it became Tubo losing a large piece of land and obtaining peace. The Tujue's side was not easy to use, so they continued to fight.
If they had money, why would they make peace with you? The Tujue was a grassland.
They occupied a large piece of land, so they naturally had to make peace with Tubo. Tubo was a plateau.
"Princess, the horseshoe business should be easy to do!" Xiao Lan still didn't want to talk about Li Longji.
On the cement road, the horse's hooves were worn down, so they had to nail the horse's hooves.
"There are many iron mines and coal mines. Iron is cheap, and good horseshoe nails don't need to be put into the rack. Just pick up a nail.
The worse the horse is, the more disobedient it is. Throw it into the rack, put on a pole, and hang it with a rope. "
Princess Yongmu had seen the horseshoe nails of the Winged Knights of the Li Family Zhuangzi. The horse was very obedient.
When it lifted its hooves, it would cooperate with you. When you lifted the worn out horseshoe, you could repair it and replace it with a new one.
The working horse always kicked people. It was fixed, but it couldn't hit people. Hitting it would make it even more irritable.
Ordinary people would hit it, but the people of the Li Family Zhuangzi would usually give you an egg. When the egg was in the palm of your hand, you would open your hand and feed it to the horse.
"Princess, it's almost noon. They've all come up to eat." A maid came over and reminded Princess Yongmu that it was time to eat.
"Oh, what are we eating for lunch? Xiao Lan, what do you want to eat? "Princess Yongmu was listless. She didn't feel hungry.
"I want …"
"Squeak ~ ~" The ear-piercing sound of air was heard. It was so familiar.
Princess Yongmu looked up through the window. A person appeared in her field of vision and flew over.
The person held a lunchbox in one hand and an assault rifle under his armpit in the other. He landed on the roof of a nearby building.
"I'm hungry." Princess Yongmu swallowed her saliva. Her stomach was telling her that she wanted to eat.
The person there landed and walked down with the lunchbox, disappearing from her field of vision.
Princess Yongmu and Xiao Lan hurriedly went to the passageway connecting the two floors and waited.
"I killed another cow and made braised beef for you. There are no potatoes, only carrots. There's also cabbage stir-fried with fungus, dried pine mushrooms in a pot of forest frog, egg with toon sprouts, and cat ear soup."
Li Yi walked over. He didn't avoid the other girls. They all knew who he was.
Cat ear wild vegetables were called dringers. They had fine fur and tasted interesting on the tongue when eaten. Even when cooked, they could still taste them. They were wild vegetables and especially fresh.
The other people on this floor who were preparing to eat heard the sound of the aircraft and saw Li Yi coming over to deliver food.
They were suddenly envious. Princess Yongmu didn't wear blood coral because she didn't suffer from lovesickness. A man was delivering food!
