Chapter 3499 Extra Story Mr. Zhuang 15

So the next day the Zhuang family and their relatives, friends and neighbors sent them out of the city.

Except for Zhuang Dalang, no one thought they would come back. Didn't you see that they packed three cars of luggage, obviously they moved their family to the capital.

After leaving the city, the caravan waiting outside the city followed behind the dealer's luggage cart.

Zhuang Dalang lifted the curtain and took a look outside, and asked Zhou Zhoulang, "Are these medicinal materials?"

"Not all, half and half, and the other half is the tea from this summer. Some tea gardens cannot be sold, and they are picked and made into tea bricks for collection. Anyway, I have a car, so I will take it away."

Zhuang Dalang said: "In the past few years, Luojiang County has made a lot of money because of the cultivation of medicinal materials and tea."

It is also because there is a market, Zhou Zhoulang not only started this business by himself, but also brought several merchants here, and at the same time encouraged people in the county to transport things out by themselves. Now the water and land routes are easier than before. Not much, even if you go out with a burden, the safety is greatly improved. Although it is a bit hard, you can earn a lot of money by going back and forth.

This is something that ordinary people in Luojiang County could not have imagined before.

But because of the high grain yield now, and the imperial court intends to redeem the land, they can still have surplus grain even if they cultivate less land, and with more and more cattle, the labor force consumed in the land will be burned, and the surplus can be used to grow medicinal materials , tea, or even go shopping.

Zhuang Dalang is the big accountant of the Zhang family, and the Zhang family is not only a big family in Luojiang County, but also has been the head of Luojiang County, so he knows how fast the economy of Luojiang County has developed in recent years.

And the source of all this is the Zhou family, and the Zhou family has such a relationship with his father, every time Zhuang Dalang thinks of it, he feels proud.

It was not the first time Zhuang Dalang came to the capital, but the last time he was young, and the capital had only experienced wars at that time, the country was not peaceful at that time, and it could not be compared with today's prosperity.

The car hadn't entered the city yet, but when he queued outside the city to enter the city, he felt different. The gray capital in his memory suddenly became colorful.

When I entered the city, the black and gray capital that had always been in my mind slowly collapsed and disappeared, replaced by colorful and lively streets of the capital.

Zhuang Dalang stared blankly at the bustling street.

Zhou Zhoulang squeezed happily to the door, and watched the outside world with him, "How about it, I said the capital is very good, right?"

Zhuang Dalang didn't speak.

Zhou Zhou Lang patted him on the shoulder and said: "The capital city is no longer the old capital city, nor is the old gentleman, and you are naturally not the old Zhuang Dalang."

Suddenly Zhuang Dalang's eyes became sour and his nose sore, he turned his head slightly to face Zhou Zhoulang, not letting him see the tears in his eyes.

Yes, Beijing is different.

Zhou Zhoulang was afraid that Zhuang Dalang would be uncomfortable, so he took the Zhuang family directly to the princess mansion.

Mr. Zhuang and the others are going to the government office today, and he didn't tell them in advance, so only Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zheng are at home.

Seeing that Zhou Zhoulang really picked up Zhuang Dalang's family, they were overjoyed and hurriedly settled them into the yard next to Mr. Zhuang.

"It's all cleaned up, you settle down first, and I'll send someone to the palace to bring Mr. Zhuang back."

Zhuang Dalang hurriedly said: "Don't be too busy, I don't want to delay my father's work."

"What kind of delay is this? It's normal for a father to take half a day off when his son arrives."

Zhuang Dalang blushed slightly.

Zhou Man and Bai Shan didn't know if they could invite Zhuang Dalang, so the matter of letting Zhou Zhoulang return to his hometown to pick him up was hidden from Mr. Zhuang.

The servants of the Bai family waited outside the gate of the palace, and asked the guards to ask the servants in the palace to help pass the message with money.

The guards and servants had a good relationship with Zhou Man, so they readily accepted the money and agreed.

Isn't it just to spread the phrase "Mr. Zhuang's family is here", simple!

So during the lunch break, a servant walked up to Mr. Zhuang with small steps and whispered: "Mr. Zhuang, someone from your family came to report that someone has come from your family."

Mr. Zhuang's first reaction was disbelief. His intuition was that someone wanted to transfer him out of the palace. He raised his eyes to look at the servant and recognized him as a member of the East Palace. He asked, "Who is passing the message?"

"It's a man named Liu Gui."

The pretense was quite similar, Mr. Zhuang nodded, expressing that he understood, but he refused to leave immediately. He decided to stay in the palace later today to see what they wanted to do in private.

As a result, before he finished his meal, Zhou Man came over excitedly, "Sir, I'm here to pick you up, have you asked for leave yet?"

Mr. Zhuang was taken aback, "What do I ask for leave?"

"Go home," Zhou Man tilted his head in doubt, "Didn't Liu Gui ask someone to send you a message, has senior brother come to the capital? When I just returned to the palace, I met Liu Gui in the imperial city..."

Mr. Zhuang: ...

He looked up at her stupidly, "Which senior brother are you? Bai Zhi?"

He can also be regarded as Zhou Man's senior brother, and he was often called that in the past.

Zhou Man: "...Of course it's Senior Brother Zhuang."

Mr. Zhuang's eyes widened in surprise, and he couldn't believe it until he got into the carriage. After leaving the imperial city, he couldn't help asking, "Is it true? Your senior brother really came to the capital?"

"Yeah, what did I lie to you for?" Zhou Man gave to her fourth brother, and by the way, also thanked himself, "I asked my fourth brother to go back to pick up people, so let me just say, there is no fourth brother in this world who can't pick you up." who came."

Mr. Zhuang was excited, his eyes were slightly wet, his fists were tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened again.

When he returned to the princess mansion and saw Zhuang Dalang standing in the yard, he was convinced that his son had really come to the capital.

Mr. Zhuang couldn't help smiling, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were tightly pressed together, and they didn't let go.

When Zhuang Dalang saw his father, he was in good spirits, his white hair was even showing signs of turning black, and he did not look old compared to previous years, so he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and hurried forward to say hello, "Father..."

Mr. Zhuang's eyes were slightly wet, and he reached out to support him, "Okay, did you have a hard time on the road?"

Zhuang Dalang replied politely: "It's not hard."

"That's good, that's good," Mr. Zhuang thought for a while, and then asked: "Have you had lunch, are you still used to the food here?"

"I'm used to it. Mrs. Liu prepares the taste of Luojiang County. It tastes good."

Zhou Man stood aside and listened to their father and son talking, and couldn't help feeling anxious, "Brother, sir, I miss you a lot. I've been talking about it for the past few years. I don't know when you will be able to come to Beijing to have a look. So when we moved here, we specially put the The two yards next to where Mr. lives are vacant, I didn't expect people to live in that yard today."

Zhuang Dalang also had to be more natural towards Zhou Man, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Junior Sister."

Zhuang Dalang only planned to stay for more than a month, and went home after seeing his father, but Mrs. Zhuang didn't think so, but she was new here, even if she wanted to stay, she didn't have the guts to tell her husband at this time.
