After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

Lu Mei was overjoyed when she heard this, and she gave several more snacks to the young people: "There are plenty of snacks, eat as much as you can, don't be reluctant."

The young man's face turned even redder. He lowered his head and explained in a low voice: "I want to bring it back for my mother and grandmother to try. They have never tasted such exquisite snacks!"

When Lu Mei heard this, she stuffed the snack box into the young man's arms and said, "What a filial son! Take all of these back with you!"

"This is so bad, we can't have it!"

Green Plum: "I told you to collect them, so you collect them!"

The two young men took the box of snacks and answered whatever Gu Nanxi asked honestly.

After waiting for about two incense sticks, a group of people came from the north of the road with torches.

"Jun brother, Yong brother!" The leader was a Han Chinese man in his twenties. He ran over with one foot deep and one foot light, looked the two young men up and down, and was relieved to see that they were fine.

When the two young men saw their eldest brother and the villagers coming, they hurriedly introduced the two parties: "Madam, this is my eldest brother, Li Fugui. Brother, this lady was blocked by us and couldn't pass. Not only did she not blame us, she was kind enough to give us some snacks."

The young man held up the snack box to show Li Fugui as if he was presenting a treasure.

Li Fugui knew more than the two young men. When he saw how exquisite the box was, he knew that the woman was probably not an ordinary person.

So, Li Fugui thanked them repeatedly, and together with the villagers, they lifted the tricycle and pushed it a few steps to a flat ground. Then, he warmly invited Gu Nanxi and his party to go to the village to rest.

"It's a dark and windy day, and the weather is cold. I think Madam is freezing. Come to our house first, drink some hot water, rest your feet, and warm yourself up."

Li Fugui was very enthusiastic, and Gu Nanxi was indeed tired and cold, so he agreed.

Li Fugui's village is not far from the main road. If you walk along the narrow path quickly, you can reach the village in one incense stick of time.

This small village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, but the three mountains are not high, and there are no mountain springs, streams, waterfalls or anything like that.

The mountain was just an ordinary mountain, with some bushes and no wild animals.

The fields are not as neat and tidy as those in Woye Town. Instead, they are patchy, with patches here and there.

Li Fugui's house was an ordinary yellow mud house. The two women were reluctant to light the oil lamp, so the house was pitch black.

"Mother, I've told you so many times that the three of us are grown up and can earn money. You don't have to be so reluctant to spend money. It's so dark in the room. If you and grandma were to trip over something, it would be a lot of pain!"

Li Fugui muttered to himself as he lit the oil lamp.

The oil lamp was lit, and the house instantly had a hint of orange warmth.

The two ladies then realized that there were guests at home. They were at a loss for a moment and smiled awkwardly, "I'll go get some hot water for the guests."

Li Fugui invited Gu Nanxi and his group to come in and rest, and apologized: "In the past few years, life was not easy for our family. My mother and grandmother were used to being frugal and were reluctant to light the oil lamp."

After that, Li Fugui asked his two younger brothers to light the kang: "Although it's not snowing, it's still cold at night. Don't catch a cold."

Jun Ge'er and Yong Ge'er obediently went to the next room to light the fire.

The two women quietly called Li Fugui and asked if the guests wanted to eat anything.

Gu Nanxi overheard the conversation between the three people and said quickly, "Madam Li, please stop busying yourself. We will take a break and leave soon. Come sit up with us and chat."

Gu Nanxi sat on the kang, which was a little cold. It was obvious that it had not been heated during the day.

But as Jun Ge'er added firewood, the kang gradually became warmer.

Seeing that Gu Nanxi insisted, the two women couldn't refuse, so they also sat cross-legged on the kang.

Gu Nanxi smiled and asked, "How is life at home?"

"It's great! It's getting better every year. It's just like a dream!" Li's grandmother smiled from ear to ear, revealing a mouthful of gaps in her teeth.

"What kind of business does your family have now?"

Madam Li raised her head and glanced at Gu Nanxi. This lady didn't look like an ordinary person, but she asked such a down-to-earth question.

"We don't have much land, so the two of us grow some vegetables near our home. The three brothers went out to do business."

He is said to be a businessman, but in fact he is just a peddler.

It's just that the peddler on a tricycle sells more things, at a higher price, and travels farther!

Li's grandmother seemed to remember something, and tremblingly took out a stick of incense from the cabinet, lit it, bowed towards the north, and then inserted it into an incense burner.

Li Fugui explained in a low voice: "This is for the general! If it weren't for the general, we wouldn't have the good life we ​​have now! When we have more money, we will go and ask for the general's portrait back!"

The general himself, Gu Nanxi, touched his nose embarrassedly.

"Mr. Li, how long have you been doing business on a tricycle?"

Li Fugui went to the kitchen and came over with a kettle and five or six bowls. "It started before the New Year! When the county government issued a notice saying that we could rent tricycles, we started renting! Our Yunzhou products are very popular in Shuozhou."

Gu Nanxi nodded. This Li Fugui is a man who dares to think and act!

For the first batch of people who rent tricycles, the deposit and rent are reduced by half, but those who come later will not have such good preferential conditions.

Gu Nanxi: "How does it feel to use this tricycle?"

"It's great, stable, and easy to use! It can hold a lot of cargo! But the road is too unstable, and it's impossible to drive on some small roads."

After Jun Ge'er and Yong Ge'er started a fire, they also walked in. When they heard this, they couldn't help but complain.

"Those roads haven't been repaired for years! I'm worried that the wheels of this tricycle will be worn out by the stones when riding on them!"

"One time, our tire was punctured by a small stone. It cost us a lot of money to fix it!"

The conversation among the three brothers reminded Gu Nanxi that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads!

In the future, whether it is to strengthen Yunzhou’s internal economic circulation or to trade with other states and counties, it is extremely important to build several wide roads!

Gu Nanxi looked at Yan Tongchu and asked: "When was the last time the official road in Yunzhou was repaired?"

Yan Tongchu thought for a moment and said, "It's been more than ten years since I last repaired it."

It’s embarrassing to say that several commonly used avenues in Yunzhou were actually built during the Qin Dynasty and have been in use until now.

Because building roads required corvée labor, and Yunzhou had a small population and was often dealing with wars, it had no energy to build roads.

"It seems that our infrastructure is still far from perfect!" Gu Nanxi felt ashamed when he thought of the title of infrastructure maniac in later generations.

I've been in the book for so long, why haven't I thought of building infrastructure?
