About to go on a study tour, Brother Heng was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

He got up secretly and ran to the kitchen to look for food, but was caught by the night watchman.

Hush!

Brother Heng asked the servants to keep quiet, and knocked on Liu Yu's door with a basket of food.

Liu Yu was sleeping soundly, but was woken up, so irritable he picked up the pillow and threw it out.

Hearing Brother Heng's voice, his mind finally cleared up.

Opening the door, Brother Heng slid in like a loach.

I can't sleep, I went to the kitchen to find a bunch of food, you can accompany me.

Brother Heng looked at Liu Yu eagerly.

Liu Yu stretched out his hand and rubbed Brother Heng's head until he turned Brother Heng's hair into a chicken coop.

Seeing Brother Heng holding a chicken coop, Liu Yu was finally satisfied.

He asked: I'm leaving early tomorrow morning. If you're not sleeping now, are you planning to sleep in the carriage all day tomorrow? If that's the case, you won't be able to see the scenery along the way.

Brother Heng felt wronged, But I really can't sleep, I'm still hungry.

Liu Yu pinched his cheek, There is still room on the bed, do you want to sleep together?

Yes, yes! Brother Heng nodded repeatedly, and finally achieved his goal.

The two brothers lay side by side on the bed, and Liu Yu didn't allow brother Heng to eat in the middle of the night.

I can't digest it after eating, so be careful to wake up with a stomachache tomorrow morning.

Hungry! Brother Heng said pitifully.

Hungry has to endure.

This matter is not negotiable.

Brother Heng had a dejected look on his face. Fortunately, he touched the kitchen in the middle of the night and took a basket of delicious food, but it turned out that he couldn't eat, so pitiful.

Liu Yu covered his face, Sleep well, don't think about eating. When you leave the capital, you will be able to eat your fill of delicacies from all over the world.

Okay, okay! How much money do you have with you? I only have five hundred taels?

Liu Yu laughed at him, It's only five hundred taels, and I want to eat it all over the country. Hurry up and call big brother,

I'll take you out chic.

Big Brother, Big Brother, you are my God of Wealth, Money Bag. When I go out, I can count on you.

If you want to count on me, you have to listen to me.

I promise to be obedient.

Now go to sleep.

Brother Heng resisted the temptation of food and closed his eyes to sleep.

It always feels like just falling asleep, it's dawn.

Waking up in the morning, the only feeling is sleepy!

He was pulled up by the servants to wash and change clothes.

Everything was packed, and I sat at the dining table, still unable to open my eyes.

Seeing this, Gu Jiu asked, Did you not sleep last night?

Liu Yu said: Brother Heng didn't fall asleep until midnight after making a fuss. Looking at it like this, I can only sleep in the carriage.

Gu Jiu warned: When going out, safety comes first. Watch out for Brother Heng, don't let him run around, don't let him be deceived.

My son is not an idiot, so he won't be deceived. Brother Heng rubbed his eyes, yawned, and was listless.

Gu Jiu laughed, Look at you, you look so easy to deceive.

Brother Heng wrinkled his nose, feeling wronged.

Gu Jiu laughed loudly, Eat breakfast quickly. After eating, it's time to leave. Niu Niu and Brother Yun are still sleeping now, don't let them know that you are going out, otherwise you will cry all morning, and you can't be coaxed.

Everyone has seen Niu Niu and brother Yun crying.

Two brats, young and with a strong temper. The bigger it is, the harder it is to coax.

The two brothers hurriedly buried their heads in eating breakfast, and they must not be blocked by Niu Niu and Brother Yun at the door.

When it came time to go out, Gu Jiu was full of reluctance.

This time, I am afraid that it will take two or three years to come back.

She couldn't help nagging and said a lot.

The time for assembly is approaching, and we cannot delay any longer.

Gu Jiu could only watch the carriage drive out of the palace, full of sadness.

Unexpectedly, one day, she would be sentimental.

...

After sending the two children away, Gu Jiu was really depressed for a few days.

Niu Niu and Brother Yun woke up, but they didn't see the two brothers, they chased Gu Jiu every day and asked, Where's brother, where's brother?

Gu Jiu told the two children, My brother went out to study.

Niuniu reluctantly accepted.

Brother Yun sniffed, didn't say anything, but his heart was clear.

The brothers went out to play.

The weather is getting hotter every day.

Gu Jiu took his two children and lived in Xiaozhu in the mountains to escape the summer heat, and lived his own life behind closed doors.

The people below are not idle.

...

The coolie laborers at Yuhua Lane Wharf came and went, changing countless stubbles.

On this day, it had just rained in the morning and the weather was hot and humid.

Just standing still, it takes less than a cup of tea, and the whole body is drenched in sweat.

If it moves, the sweat is like rain.

Fortunately, the pier provides free tea.

The tea made with Kudingcha is bitter enough to quench thirst, and the supply is unlimited, so you can drink it with your belly open.

In such a hot weather, just drinking tea every day is enough.

In such a sultry and humid weather, Ma Xiaoliu came to Yuhua Lane Wharf.

As soon as I got out of the four-wheeled carriage, sweat broke out.

There was an ice basin in the carriage, so it didn't feel hot.

Outside the carriage, the heat wave was rolling.

Apprentice He Gui took a fan and fanned Ma Xiaoliu.

Ma Xiaoliu disliked the two of them getting close, it was hot. He grabbed the fan and fanned himself.

He ordered: Gather all the laborers and get the two-wheelers ready.

The steward obeyed and blew his whistle.

When the laborers heard the whistle blowing, they knew they had to assemble.

Hundreds of laborers gathered under the shade of trees.

A sour smell came out.

Everyone is sweaty, and no one dislikes anyone.

Ma Xiaoliu stood on the high platform holding a tin trumpet, I don't know if there are any old people among you who have worked for eight or nine years. If so, you must remember me. I am Ma Xiaoliu, Director Ma.

Master Ma, take care!

Ma Xiaoliu gave a false pressure and made everyone quiet.

I came here today to bring you an opportunity. Whether you want to seize the opportunity or not is up to you to decide. First drag the two-wheeled vehicle up.

The subordinate listened to the order and pulled the two-wheeled cart to the crowd.

The laborers looked at each other, their eyes widened, and they stared at the two-wheeler curiously.

A car with two wheels and a roof. The canopy is beautifully done.

Sitting in the car, not afraid of the sun and rain.

The two long tie rods are all made of iron.

Two tie rods are welded together with a horizontal bar.

When a person stands in the horizontal bar and holds the two tie rods tightly with both hands, the two-wheeled vehicle can run.

Ma Xiaoliu pointed to the two-wheeled vehicle, and said loudly: This is a two-wheeled vehicle, the latest product launched by Huanyu Transportation. With a roof, it can pull customers, and it can run around the whole capital. A few days ago, the new capital was established. He opened a car dealership called Huimin Car dealership.

As the name suggests, it is to provide convenience for the small people in the capital to travel. Many people in the capital could not afford four-wheeled carriages, and there was no place to raise mules, horses and donkeys, which meant that many families did not even have two-wheeled carriages. Travel can only rely on walking, or rent a car.

It doesn't matter if you are young and strong. If you are older, it is not easy to go out. It's even harder if you have luggage. In order to make it easier for the common people to go out, Huanyu Transportation has specially launched two-wheeled rickshaws, and is now recruiting rickshaw drivers. The recruitment conditions are as follows, please listen carefully.

Hundreds of laborers rioted.

Recruiting rickshaw pullers? Means to pull a cart?

All the people who can do manual work on the docks have a lot of strength.

Pulling a car is definitely not a problem.

Is it just that this thing can make money?

Is it reliable?

Raising his voice, Ma Xiaoliu explained the recruitment conditions to the workers.

All those who are interested in becoming a rickshaw driver must go through half a month of training.

The training content includes how to greet guests and how to recognize the way. You must memorize the name of each square city and know how to get there.

The price must be charged according to the industry regulations, and no price reduction or increase without authorization is allowed.

If the customer increases the price and chartered a car, it's another matter.

For human-powered two-wheeled vehicles, the starting price is unified at five renminbi. Add money depending on the distance.

For example, how much does it cost to go from Dongshi to Xishi, and from Xishi to Xinmin County?

These will be discussed during training.

If you want to be a rickshaw driver, you must be clean and have no bad habits.

Has the habit of petty theft and will never be hired.

Those who have a habit of voyeurizing women are also not eligible for employment.

...Pay ten cents to the car dealer every day, and the rest of the money is your own. The more you work, the more you get. Is there anyone willing to apply for a rickshaw driver?

The laborers whispered and hesitated.

Ten Wen a day is not a small amount.

The starting price is five cents, will anyone take the car?

What if there is no one in the car at the end of the day?

What if there are only two people in the car a day?

Carrying big bales at the pier as coolies, the daily income is visible.

Going to a car dealership to be a driver always feels that the risk is too great.

The conservative laborers retreated, not daring to go forward.

There was that quick-witted and bold laborer who stood up and said, I am applying for a rickshaw driver.

I also apply.

Those who want to be rickshaw drivers come here to sign up, and the training will start tomorrow. There will be no wages during the training, but three meals will be provided.

More than 100 laborers applied for rickshaw pullers.

After half a month of training, after a few people were eliminated, more than a hundred people put on uniform red vests and began to solicit customers on the street.

These first-time coachmen are distributed in densely populated places in the city, and they feel uneasy.

Will anyone be in the car?

Someone asked them what it was for, how to explain it?

The eyes of the coachmen flickered, and the red vests on their bodies were soaked in sweat under the sun, and they could not be taken off.

The car dealership training said that you can't solicit customers shirtless, which will make female customers shy away.

The dealership training also said that no matter what time, you are not allowed to sit in the car.

It is for customers, and the driver sits in it. If the customers don't say anything, they must have opinions in their hearts. Especially some customers who love cleanliness.

The coachmen stood in the shade of the trees, or under the eaves, waiting for the first customer.

Hey, look quickly, this is the two-wheeled rickshaw mentioned in Da Zhou Life Show. The starting price is five yuan.

Really!

A group of middle-aged women rushed over.

The drivers who took up the job on the first day were all inexperienced and didn't know how to react.

Hey, how much is the meat shop in Xinmin County Market?

Eight, eight coins.

Can you pull two people?

Yes! But you need to add two cents.

It's really expensive to pull two people and add two cents.

It's stipulated by the car dealership, we can't be the winner.

That's all, that's all, ten fen is ten fen. At least you don't have to squeeze into a carriage with a group of people.

On the first day of work, it finally opened. The driver cheered up and pulled the rickshaw to run fast.

The wind blew the passenger's cheeks, and his face was refreshed.

In this hot summer, you don't need to be exposed to the sun and rain, and you can still blow the wind. Expensive is indeed expensive.

Pedestrians on both sides of the street looked sideways.

Look, rickshaw, I want to ride too.

The starting price of five cents is not expensive, and two people can take a car.

Come on, let's find a rickshaw to ride.
