Chapter 214 212. Sun Quan visits the lantern festival (please subscribe for a monthly ticket)

Originally, in Lu Su's idea, bringing back a ten-frame loom was already the maximum limit. After all, they only had so many carriages and horses.

A loom that big takes up a lot of space. Now... Sun Quan placed an order for a hundred looms, which almost frightened him to the point of stopping his heart!

One hundred frames, is it necessary to open a weaving workshop? Even if it is, he still has to transport it back!

And...with a hundred fights, aren't you afraid that the county government or the little lady will come to your door?

Or... what Sun Quan wants is a door-to-door visit?

Lu Su was a little undecided for a moment, but then he had nothing to pursue. After all... everything had been said.

Furthermore, after all, Sun Quan is the younger brother of his lord Sun Ce. Although he is young, he still needs some face.

"Ah Quan knows how to transport one hundred looms back?"

"Of course I know." Sun Quan nodded, "The carriages and horses will be transported to Mianyang Wharf. Mianyang River can be connected to the river."

"Wharf?" Lu Su was stunned.

"Yes, I heard that Lord Chu'an built a wharf just for the convenience of transporting goods." Sun Quan smiled, "Now, Chu'an County's goods move quickly, and the carriages, horses, and boats are all available. Brother, don't worry too much."

Lu Su breathed a sigh of relief, but even if transporting them back was not a problem... a hundred of them would be too high-profile.

"Furthermore, these hundred looms cannot be delivered immediately. In terms of money, we can pay a deposit." Sun Quan continued.

Lu Su was confused and said, "This is..."

"Oh, the cloth shopkeeper told me."

Lu Su was silent again. There was no doubt that it was Chu Anjun who was endorsing this loom. Otherwise, how could the deposit, freight, and scheduling...have been so smooth?

Then, he broke out in a sweat. Even people like Sun Quan who were not traders could appreciate the convenience... Those who have been doing business all year round, wouldn't they be able to appreciate the convenience of doing business here even more?

What should Chu'an County do? Daxing Commercial Affairs?

Sun Quan smiled when he saw Lu Su's reaction. He was also surprised when he first learned about it.

But now... he can't wait to meet Chu Anjun, the lady behind this county. This lady should be fifteen years old this year.

Thinking of Zhou Yu's previous plans, his face didn't look good.

Because the fact that Zhou Yu wanted to "marry" Chu Anjun for him was regarded as a joke by everyone in the world.

Even though he is Sun Ce's younger brother, there aren't many things he can make decisions for himself, even though Sun Ce loves them very much.

Therefore, he needs to become stronger so that he will not be influenced by others.

…

As a result, Li Mu soon received a large order for a hundred looms, so he ran like crazy to find Huang Hai.

After Huang Yueying came out of Zhuge Liang's house, she seriously reflected on herself. Doesn't it mean she can't accept it? The boss is hers!

Whether it is for the future or from my own perspective... ahem, the boss is the best candidate.

Then, she saw Li Mu running towards Huang Hai's home.

"Li Mu." Huang Yueying called out curiously.

Li Mu stopped and saw Huang Yueying and said, "My boss."

"What is this doing?"

"Oh, I just received an order for one hundred looms, and I was about to report the good news to Zhong Niu." Li Mu exhaled and explained.

Huang Yueying was also surprised, "A hundred? How could a businessman smell it so soon?"

"It is said that they are from Changsha County. They happened to come over. The county soldiers made some recommendations, and then they went to the street to ask about looms. As a result... they placed an order for a hundred looms." Li Mu explained with a smile.

He said, "Tomorrow, the businessman will come to the village."

Huang Yueying also laughed. It seemed that it was quite important to let people in the county do some guiding things.

At present, although Chu'an County has a certain reputation, outside traders do not know what other things there are in the county besides Chu paper and books. With such a guide, development will be better.

"The inventory...isn't enough?"

"Yes, so I need to discuss it with Zhong Niu and see if we can recruit more people after the new year."

"Okay, let's go." Huang Yueying nodded with a smile.

In this way, another industry has been born in Zhuangzi, and it is a light industry with a certain technical threshold. In the future... she believes that it will grow even better.

But soon, she also thought about it. This year’s New Year’s Day just passed, and the loom was only launched on the New Year’s Eve. In this kind of weather, normal people would stay at home for the winter, plus information transmission in this era.

It's indeed slow. It's normal that we just happened to have such a large order now.

Li Mu responded and went happily.

Huang Yueying was happy when she saw this, and then sat outside for a while before returning to Zhuge Liang's study and sharing the news.

As for why I want to share...well, I just want to share.

…

Inside the county guest house.

After Lu Su and Sun Quan finished dressing up, they went to Huangjiazhuangziwai Market Lantern Festival on the recommendation of local people.

"If you two shopkeepers have learned something, you can go and win some prizes." The waiter smiled, "I heard that the lady took a lot of things from the warehouse to make prizes."

Sun Quan smiled and nodded, "Thank you."

…

The night is getting dark.

Lu Su and Sun Quan led their men to the outside of Huangjiazhuang with their horses.

Looking from a distance, the long stream of lights is very spectacular. The waiter at the guest house said that this lantern festival has been going on since the first day of the Lunar New Year. Now it is the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, but there are still so many people, which makes them quite excited.

for accident.

"The financial resources of Chu'an County should not be underestimated." Lu Su came to a conclusion.

"Whether it's paper or books, that little girl has made so much money, how can she not be able to support this small lantern festival?" Sun Quan smiled, and then said, "I would like to take a look at this lantern festival, but...

What’s so fun?”

Lu Su smiled and nodded, "That's fine, since I'm here, let's have a good time."

Several people then dismounted, deposited their horses in the storage area, and then walked inside.

Before walking very far, I smelled the aroma of some food.

They also saw that there were many adults traveling with their families around, and the constant voices of children gave them an inexplicable feeling.

"Dad, I still want to eat fried cakes today!"

"No, you can't eat every day. You won't be able to sleep after eating." The man next to him smiled and refused.

"No... I want to eat!"

The child's mother also laughed. Originally, she had come yesterday and would not come today. But after all, the lantern festival was not far from Zhuangzi, and the child was clamoring to come over again. She had no choice but to come over.

But looking at the children, whether they are men or women, their faces are very happy.

Sun Quan's eyes darkened again. Why are there so many family reunions here?

Not long after walking, they saw a booth selling traps, which cost ten coins. Sun Quan paid the money readily, and Sun Quan started playing.

Among those prizes, he only picked the expensive ones. Although he only won five out of ten, it still attracted praise from the stall owner.

"This gentleman is really good at his skills!"

Lu Su stood aside and smiled.

When he returned to Sun Ce's staff two months ago, it was not the first time he met Sun Quan, but Sun Quan gave him a darker feeling.

Nowadays, when playing these small games, the gloomy atmosphere is much less.

Thinking of the current situation in Jiangdong, Lu Su also sighed.

Since the rise of that little gentleman in Jingzhou, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu have suffered successively, and Sun Quan has also been affected by this. I don't know whether it is good or bad.

On Sun Quan's side, he took the prizes, pens, cloth, food, lamps... Reluctantly, none of them were particularly important to him, so he took a lamp and handed the rest to the attendants behind him.

Take it.

Going further, we saw some sandbag throwing games and some lantern riddle games...

What interests Sun Quan the most is the game of archery, because it is one of his strengths.

"Is there another young man who wants to challenge archery today?" The person next to him stopped.

"After waiting for many days, I haven't seen Mr. Zhuge again. Today's Mr. Zhuge... although he seems to be younger than Mr. Zhuge, he is also handsome and good-looking."

"Hey, I wonder if this gentleman can complete the ten-arrow streak today!"
