Chapter 260: Many Merchants Gather
"Hmm." Shen Xia could only utter one word softly from his throat.
Because as soon as he opened his mouth he started crying.
People are always like this. When they are sad, the more people comfort them, the sadder they become.
"It's snowing, let's go in! You are in heavy condition and can't catch a cold." Song Jinqing said.
"it is good."
Back to the yard,
Shen Xia's eyes turned slightly red when she looked at Song's mother.
Indeed, it would be hard not to feel sad when one's own son goes to the battlefield.
Song's mother was obviously very sad herself.
He also stepped forward to support Shen Xia: "Xia Xia, don't worry, the boss will be fine. I have watched him learn martial arts with Li Yi every day recently, and it is still useful."
"Okay, don't worry too much, mom. I prepared a soft armor for big brother that is invulnerable to swords and arrows."
Mother Song was surprised and grateful!
It’s true that Xia Xia is more thoughtful than me as her mother.
I must take good care of Xia Xia and the children, otherwise the boss will be worried on the battlefield.
Song Jiang rode away on horseback.
Looking at the tiny snowflakes in the sky.
Why did the snow come earlier this year than in previous years?
Thinking about what Xia Xia said to me.
I can only accompany her to watch the snow next year.
Today's snow seemed to be falling just to see Song Jiang off, and it stopped not long after it began to snow.
No traces were left on the ground.
Just like that, the Song family returned to peace.
Yan Yi has already brought back all the things that Shen Xia had ordered, and he ordered one hundred sets of each style.
Then Shen Xia took out the things in advance and did not go to the factory for processing, because they still had to process the silk quilts, so Shen Xia asked the four little maids around her to process them.
This kind of assembly work is very easy.
Shen Xia is not the kind of person who doesn't like to work, so he joined everyone in doing it and found it very interesting.
It took four days to assemble it.
It’s the ninth day of the New Year.
Shen Xia's yard was filled with things.
Because some things need to be heated and then poured into small porcelain jars to solidify, such as lipstick and eyeliner.
So after filling, just lay it flat and let it cool.
In the past few days, Shen Xia took out a lot of thick transparent films that she asked her mother to buy for her from the space and gave them all to Song Ming.
Tell him how to do it.
Song Ming called a few servants to help, and the vegetable garden was almost half finished.
This way, we don’t have to worry about running out of vegetables this winter thanks to the greenhouse.
Shen Xia thought about it and realized that the snow here was not very heavy.
At its thickest, it is only a few dozen centimeters thick.
But I can’t grow vegetables.
Of course, it is definitely much heavier than the snow I saw in the south in my previous life.
Finally, on the tenth day, almost noon.
Sister Qin came with a group of people.
There were more than twenty horse-drawn carriages.
The servant at the door was surprised.
They quickly separated to inform each other, one person went to inform the young lady, and the other went to the next door factory to inform Song Jin.
Because Shen Xia had said before that the family business affairs would be handed over to Song Jin in the future.
When Shen Xia found out, he immediately came out to greet her.
I got up early because I knew there would be guests today.
Shen Xia and Song Jin greeted them at the door together.
Seeing Sister Qin in front of her, Shen Xia greeted her warmly: "Sister Qin, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Qin Zi also smiled and said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time."
Shen Xia looked at the carriage behind and saw people getting off one after another.
"Is this a remote place? So remote?"
"Another person said, that is, we still have to see the goods first and see what the prospects are. If it weren't for that thing, I wouldn't come so far."
Among these people, some know each other, while some do not know each other. If we talk about the truly wealthy and powerful ones, they may not even look down on such a small industry.
Therefore, those who can come here from far away must be from families with average financial conditions. Even if their families have large industries, they probably cannot manage them themselves, so they have to find other ways out.
Shen Xia entertained everyone regardless of their expressions.
It's so cold and the road conditions are not very good, it's normal to feel a little emotional.
Shen Xia and Song Jin both greeted them warmly.
Judging from their clothes, they should be the thirteen owners.
Qin Zi introduced them to everyone one by one.
Maybe some of them were sure to purchase goods, so they brought extra carriages.
"The weather is a bit cold, let's come in and sit down and chat." Song Jin said to everyone.
Qin Zi also echoed: "That's right, that's right."
The hall in the main courtyard is the size of two rooms, which are connected to form a horizontal hall. There are two main seats in the front and eight seats on each side.
There weren't so many spaces originally, but some were added in the past few days.
As soon as everyone came in, those who were a little emotional calmed down.
Although everyone has a big yard and is rich, this yard still looks very special.
There is a small rockery and flowing water in this yard.
How does the water flowing down from above get up there?
There are actually fish in this small pond, but are they koi?
Not really, koi are generally bigger!
This fish is too small!
And why is its tail so beautiful?
Shen Xia was walking in front, and suddenly realized that no one followed him into the hall, so he turned around and looked.
Everyone was attracted by the rockery and flowing water in the yard.
Shen Xia walked back again: "What's wrong?"
A woman asked: "This rockery and flowing water are really beautiful, but I'm just curious where the water comes from."
Shen Xia smiled and said, "This is very simple! The water above is pumped up from the pool. This is a water cycle."
After Shen Xia finished speaking, everyone was even more confused.
Shen Xia thought about how to explain this physics to them.
I thought about it for a long time and gave a casual explanation because there were some unfamiliar words.
Although they didn't understand, they didn't feel comfortable asking more questions because they all felt that the host had explained it to them and it was they who didn't understand. If they asked more questions, they would appear stupid.
This matter is like the emperor's new clothes. If you don't understand, you're too embarrassed to ask.
Shen Xia could only give a simple explanation. She couldn't tell you that the thing on top of the rockery was a solar panel!
Nowadays, everyone is curious about the boss.
The two led everyone into the hall.
Everyone felt the warmth.
Song Jin arranged for everyone to sit down.
After a while, Ruyi and the others brought the tea.
As a result, after everyone sat down, they became even more curious when they saw that there were no braziers around.
This is obviously where the warmth is coming from.
Because Qin Zi and Shen Xia are more familiar with each other, I am also curious.
Then he said, "Sister Shen, there is no brazier in this hall, how come it is so warm?"
Shen Xia raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "This! It's simple,"
Then he looked at everyone and pointed to the wall at the back: "Since everyone will be here today and it's so cold, I had the fire wall at the back lit up. This way the whole hall will be warm."
Everyone just knew that the heat came from the back, but they were also curious about the principle.
Then Shen Xia explained how the house was built.
When everyone heard this, some people also had plans and made some changes to their own homes so that it would not be so cold in winter.
Only one other person said, "Boss Shen, isn't this too expensive? If you use such a large space to burn when you sleep at night, how much firewood will you need?"
