Beiyang new warlord

"Congratulations to General Mao on the opening of his new store. I have brought some gifts. By the way, let's see if General Mao needs my help!"

"Miss Luo is here to see what valuable things my general has, right?"

Zheng Duo is in his 50s and almost [-]s this year, but he is really like an old child, he acts rashly, and if he has a feud with Luo Ning, a little vixen, he has a feud. People are also the most reassuring, Mao Jue didn't mention him, just smiled helplessly, and led the way ahead.

"This stuff is Chinese. It contains tobacco spices. It refreshes the mind, improves temperament, and reduces stress. It is very popular in the north. After training, the soldiers smoke one after killing the enemy. If it is sold in Jiangnan, I believe it will be sold. It can help many scholars and scholars write more stories that have been handed down through the ages!"

Although mink fur and ginseng make money, a piece of mink can be worn for ten or twenty years, and can even be passed on to the next generation. Ginseng is not considered a fast-moving consumer product. Gifts, not too much is stewed in a year.

And now Linxia Ginseng Maojue is still in the experimental stage, and artificial mink breeding is also being explored, all relying on smuggling with Houjin's border market, don't look at him now controlling [-] to [-]% of the supply of special products in Liaodong, but it depends on Huang Taiji Face, one day the two families fight, this product will be broken.

But cigarettes are different. For the smokers he knew in later generations, one pack of cigarettes a day is too normal. Even if it is controlled, one person must have ten packs a month, and the price is cheap, even the poor can afford it, and the market is still empty. You can see it by looking at supermarkets that sell cigarettes everywhere in later generations. Mao Jue has thought about the advertisements. Those Jiangnan scholars who are in charge of playing handsome have a fragrant eye in their mouths and beautiful poems in their mouths.

"My concubine has heard of this thing in Guangdong and Guangxi, Fujian, but they all use a big cigarette pot. It is General Mao's ingenuity to make it so convenient. Can I try it?"

Unexpectedly, Luo Ning still had the potential to be a little smoker, so he took out a cigarette, but subconsciously, Mao Jue snatched the cigarette back and stuffed it in.

"General?"

If Luo Ning took the lead in smoking, the sales volume of Mao's Soft China in Jiangnan would not be worrying, so it was not Luo Ning who was surprised first, but Zheng Duo.There was an awkward smile on his face, and Mao Jue waved his hand dryly at the woman's stunned eyes.

"This stuff is not suitable for women. I think it's more suitable for men!"

"Luo Ning is a strange person who is still a general, but he is so rigid about men and women! I am a weak woman, so she can drink alcohol and fight her family fortune! If a man can smoke, Luo Ning has to try!"

This explanation actually annoyed this girl, she was stubborn, and she wanted to get that cigarette case again, but this time Mao Jue actually grabbed her little hand suddenly, pressed her shoulder with one hand and pushed her aside.

"I won't let you smoke!"

A pair of eyes were unquestionable, fixed on her eyes, since she was a child, she had never been in such close contact with a man, Luo Ning was even stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly Her pretty face was flushed red, her little heart was beating wildly, and she lowered her head.

Mao Jue was also a little dazed, she wasn't my girlfriend, so why bother with her?Why was he impulsive? According to the rules of etiquette, he is innocent enough to offend the big girl! But he can't take it back even if he said it. He retreated in embarrassment, scratched his head, and Mao Jue made another invitation The movement, as if nothing had happened to lead the way ahead.

"There are still some things that should be considered rare, Miss Luo please."

"General Mao please!"

Fortunately, this girl is well-informed and adaptable, so she also changed the topic and followed as if nothing had happened.

"Wow~"

In this era, anyone who sees such a huge crystal lamp will be amazed. In the three shops, the huge crystal lamp that Mao Jue brought to Jiangnan is stored in the middle. Even if the oil lamp is not lit, it looks like a lotus flower. , Luo Ning was still staring blankly and sucked in a breath of air.

"Mao is ignorant and incompetent, but tinkered with something. Here are all lamp stands, and candles are lit inside. The light is much stronger than that of paper lanterns. The only shortcoming is that it needs to be washed frequently. Inside, there are glass cups and bowls. ladle."

Compared with selling natural products such as ginseng and mink, Mao Jue would rather sell industrial products such as glass products and tobacco. All the iron pots, basins, plows and barrels produced were brought here.

Women and giant dragons are said to be relatives, and those little girls in later generations are, obviously useless, but when they come across beautiful head cards, beautiful bottles and other decorations, they will buy a lot of them home, here Luo Ning has not got rid of the nature of women , A room full of stars, or lotus flowers, or colorful bottles and jars in the shape of little bears, this girl's eyes are so beautiful that she can't move.

"what is this?"

After walking one way, facing a white object at the corner, this Jiangnan beauty asked curiously again, and Mao Jue laughed again when she saw it.

"This thing, uh, this thing!"

Halfway through the conversation, he got stuck, Luo Ning asked what was wrong, asked him about the toilet!

But this girl is really a businessman, with a strong ability to accept water. After Mao Jue finished explaining hesitantly, this girl undressed and went to the toilet in the sample room at the back to try it out. After she came out, she couldn't take her eyes off her. Open this white and round thing.

"General Mao, this toilet must be installed first in Luo Mansion!"

This is the case with British people in later generations. It is said that in places without flush toilets, they don’t know how to go to the toilet. Before crossing, Mao Jue hated going to his grandma’s house when he was a child. , Then go to use the open-air dry toilet in the country, trembling and squatting on two wooden boards, there is a large pile of rice paddies underneath, for fear of falling, it will feel extremely uncomfortable.

Especially in summer, not to mention the smell, a lot of maggots are crawling around inside, and people who watch it want to die, so it's better to solve it in the open air!

Don't look at the beautiful scenery of the Luo family manor, but the Luo Ning's house is also that kind of dry toilet. At most, their masters have a wooden toilet, and they have to be emptied after use. It is really not as convenient as this flush toilet. Looking at this girl With a bulging appearance, Mao Jue hurriedly nodded his head.

"It's easy to say!"

There are also tiles, cement, and some messy little things, but they are all used by Mao Jue's later generations, and Luo Ning, who saw it, was also amazed.

This is good, before the store opened today, two major business orders were sold first. Mao Jue's Soft China, Luoning's stores all over Jiangsu and Zhejiang helped him sell, and this deal was free, and then called Family members, Luo Ning took ten toilets and two glass bathtubs in one go, and wanted to remodel the whole house.

What does it mean to have the opposite sex without humanity? Mao Jue did that. He left Zheng Duo to run a shop in Hangzhou City. In the afternoon, he skipped work and followed Luo Ning back home.

As expected of a big family, it was only an hour before sunset, but this girl could call ten masons, and with the cement brought by Mao Jue, she first covered a bathroom with tiles, dug a hole in the bottom, and put the toilet drain pipe It extended out of the house, and the other end connected the pond water brought up from the pool by the water truck to the upper water pipe, and the first automatic flush toilet in the entire south of the Yangtze River was born.

Although in the backyard, the septic tank and the sewage tank still have to be dug for a while.

Looking at the light yellow-green warm tiles all over the wall, as well as the tidy toilet and the clean washbasin, this girl Luo Ning really seemed to have turned into a little girl, dancing and dancing happily, Mao Jue was terrified, so she quickly stopped her She told her that the cement needs at least three days of recuperation before it can be hardened to the hardest level, otherwise he really doubts whether this woman can take off her clothes and soak in it directly.

These days, Mao Jue is quite a man, and he also gave up a lot to this girl. Today, he contributed a lot to renovating the bathroom. During dinner time, Luo Ning asked the chef to cook a few more dishes and drank a few more drinks with Mao Jue. Cup, a small face as red as an apple, personally sent Mao Jue back to the guest room in the West Court.

"Miss Luo, thank you for your hospitality, go back and rest early!"

On the window, Su Yi and Qin Niang were still packing their things, preparing to leave tomorrow. At the gate of the courtyard, Mao Jue clasped his fists and walked in to say goodbye. However, within two steps, this girl suddenly appeared behind her. Called him.

"General Mao!"

"Oh! Miss Luo, is there anything else?"

I don't know if it was from drinking or what, Luo Ning's face seemed to be much more rosy than before, and she paused for a second, then she seemed to shout out in Mao Jue's amazement, and uttered it as quickly as a cannonball said this sentence.

"General Mao, you are truly a man like no other!"

After shouting this sentence, Luo Ning ran away without a trace as if he was running for his life with his skirt in his hands.Looking at the white fox-like back, Mao Jue himself was confused, and scratched his head fiercely in astonishment.

"What does it mean?"

Chapter 182. The Mao Family in Qiantang

Time really doesn't pass, and I have lived in Luojia Manor for almost a month in a flash. After living for a long time, I still feel a little reluctant to leave.

With no carriage to sit in, Mao Jue rode back on his black-faced horse, stood at the intersection at the foot of the mountain, and looked up frequently.

It's just that the one who came to see him off today, without the beautiful proprietress, was the fat man in green who greeted him that day in front of Shen's mansion, the uncle who was in charge of the Luo family. It was all over, and he bowed with a smile full of apology.

"Oh, General Mao, I'm really sorry. My eldest lady suddenly encountered some unexpected incidents. She rushed to Suzhou overnight to deal with it. I can't come to see you off in person. I'm really sorry!"

"Oh, it's okay. I've been bothering you a lot these days. I can't thank you in person. I'd be a bit regretful. When Missy comes back, please ask Mr. Luo to bring Mao's thanks. Excuse me!"

"General Mao is too polite, don't dare to be! Don't dare to be!"

Pulling the horse's head and walking out for a dozen steps, the Luo family who saw him off had already gone back, Mao Jue couldn't help turning his head back, and suddenly a sour voice came from beside him.

"If the young master is reluctant, go back and find her! This young mistress, the servant girl has been practicing for a long time!"

Women are all selfish, not to mention Mao Jue Su Yi, who was the only one in the whole world since he was a child, turned his head to see this girl riding with Qin Niang on the same horse, and said something that didn't match her heart, Mao Jue couldn't help shaking it funny shook his head.
