1132. When the train rings, you get ten thousand taels of gold.
Although we were very excited to take the train today, everyone was also quite tired. After all, we had been busy for more than eight hours. Many people had no seats and were standing.
At this time, after checking into the inn, wash up and get ready to rest.
The outside of the inn was tightly guarded by a squadron of the Cavalry Training Regiment. In addition to the doormen, mobile sentries and secret sentries were also deployed.
The interior of the inn compound and each floor is controlled by a squadron of the female guard battalion led by Huang Daya and Huang Erya.
They all followed us by train. After all, no matter how fast the cavalry rode, it was impossible for them to fail to keep up with the train.
In the largest upper room in the inn, under the service of the maid, Lin Yueru and Xiao Niangpi were ready to sleep after taking a bath.
Huang Ximei walked in with two female medical students aged sixteen or seventeen, carrying a medicine box.
She also came with the train. Although Yang Fan left for the war, he left the health of the two ladies in the charge of Huang Ximei, the best female doctor at present.
Huang Ximei, who comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine and orthopedics, has four brothers, all of whom currently work at Xincheng Hospital along with her father Huang Yongtai. She has become a military doctor and now regularly checks the health of the female relatives at home.
Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru were wearing snow-white princess dresses and pajamas, sitting on the edge of the bed, yawning. After Huang Ximei had finished checking them, they were ready to rest.
They are very playful. They took the train today and had a lot of fun. But they were also tired.
Huang Ximei came over and felt their pulses one after another, and then used a stethoscope to listen to the fetal sounds.
After careful inspection for a while, he said: "Madams, after this time, I don't recommend that you go out to play again. In more than a month, it will be the due date. You should pay attention to rest. Just take a walk in the morning and evening, and walk your legs.
Don’t overwork yourself.”
The little girl smiled and said, "I listen to you. After I go back this time, I won't come out."
Lin Yueru cares more about the child in her belly than the mother-in-law. This is her lifelong meal ticket. From now on, in Yang Mansion, the price of a child is a lifetime capital.
"Mr. Huang, is everything normal?"
"Second Madam, don't worry, both of you, Madam. It's very normal. You are both martial arts practitioners, and your bodies are already strong. The food at home is good, low in fat and high in protein. The nutrition is so good, and the tests have always been good.
It’s normal. Just don’t worry.”
Lin Yueru and Xiao Niangpi suddenly smiled. What they care about most now is the baby in their belly.
Moreover, the two of them are somewhat competitive. They know very well that Yang Fan does not have much distinction in his heart. As long as it is their own child, they will all like it equally.
However, the public opinion of this era is not like this. Who can give Yang Fan a son is a huge matter.
Although the worldly custom is that there are direct concubines and no direct concubines. Xiao Niangpi is the legitimate wife, and the first son she gives birth to is the legitimate eldest son. However, both of them can see that Yang Fan does not necessarily have legitimate concubines in his eyes.
However, what may be more important is character and talent.
This child is Yang Fan's eldest son and will inherit Yang Fan's family business in the future.
Didn't you see that the temple's issue of establishing a prince caused turmoil in the court for decades?
However, this kind of thing can only be decided by God. If God doesn’t give it, no one can do anything about it.
Xiao Niangpi knew that Yao Guang had many magical abilities. She originally wanted to see Yao Guang to see if the baby in her belly was a boy or a girl, but she was rejected by Yao Guang. She said that the master had specifically told Yao Guang before he left that he was not allowed to check the gender of the fetus.
They usually eat well and healthily. There is no junk food in this era, and there are no artificial feeding additives. They are all green and healthy food. The Yang family is so rich that they eat the best and even the most top-notch ingredients in the world.
.
We only eat Ujumqin lamb for mutton, and only a few varieties of high-quality beef for beef. The seafood includes deep-sea hairtail from Daming Dynasty, cold zone sea cucumbers with more than five spines, two or three abalones, and a foot long.
Large prawns, mullet roe, fish maw belly, rat grouper, and even bluefin tuna from the Horn of Africa, South African golden abalone, Kobe beef and the like.
There are also more than a dozen people who came from the grassland in the house to make beef, mutton and dairy products. They both drink yogurt with strawberry pellets, yellow peach chunks and other fruits every day.
They have both gained a lot of weight and their cheeks have become rounder.
Everyone in Yang Fan's system is staring at the bellies of the two ladies. This is the guarantee of a happy life for their descendants.
Huang Ximei is under a lot of pressure. If something goes wrong, she cannot bear such a huge responsibility.
At this time, Sun Xiaowei from the Secretariat came in with a bunch of invitations asking for an interview. She just graduated from Xinghe Academy Women's College this year and was assigned to the Secretariat.
"Madam, Second Madam, these are the invitations and gift lists sent by local businessmen and workshop owners in Xuanfu Town. I hope to see the two ladies tomorrow."
When I heard that there was a gift list, the little girl took it with a bright smile.
It is a habit to receive gifts at Tushan stall. This is a habit developed in Dongchang.
Lin Yueru curled her lips in disdain, she didn't look down on Xiao Niangpi's petty, landlord-like behavior.
Tu Shanyue didn't care at all and said with a smile: "Miss Lin is a nine-thousand-year-old daughter. She is a person who has seen the big world. Naturally, you can't look down on these things. Naturally, they are not from small families like us.
Comparable."
Xiao Niangpi flipped through the thick pile of name badges and the gift list inside, and was very satisfied.
"I didn't expect that in this borderland, there are all sensible people. Since they are so honest, I will take the time to meet them tomorrow." The little girl said as if I was very busy and I was helpless.
Lin Yueru said: "What a borderland, Zhangjiakou is a busy place for commerce. It is the hub of trade between the grasslands and the mainland. If Zhangjiakou hadn't been burned down and all the merchants had gone to Xuanfu Town, it would have been a really prosperous place."
land."
Xiao Niangpi looked at her sideways and said, "Miss Lin is so noble, if I don't give you a gift, it will be included in the public accounts."
Lin Yueru grabbed the stack of gift lists that Xiao Niangpi had separated out and said, "That's not okay, this is for my baby. As a mother, I naturally have to keep it for him."
Xiao Niangpi had a look of disdain on her face and expressed her disdain for Lin Yueru's upright and upright behavior. She was talking about herself, but she was not lenient when holding it in her hands.
"What do they want to do when they come to see you? When you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something." Lin Yueru asked.
"What else can happen? Now that there is a train from Zhangjiakou to the capital, logistics has been greatly improved. From here to Tianjin Port, it will be opened by the end of the year. In the future, supplies on the grasslands and local supplies and commodities can be transported by train and sea ships.
All along the coast of the Ming Dynasty and the cities along the rivers. Merchants are the most sensitive people. How could they not rush to fawn over such a big event?"
Lin Yueru nodded and said: "That's the truth. The opening of the railway is subversive to the improvement of transportation. Businessmen know the importance of roads best. Without roads, good things cannot be transported in or out. The so-called smooth flow of goods
The only way to make money is to make money. They want to get on the train to transport this train."
Xiao Niangpi said with emotion: "It turns out that I just took it for granted that building the railway was a bottomless pit of pure money. It was invented by the master to control the territory in the north and transport military supplies. Now it seems that although the initial investment in the railway is huge,
, but in the long run, not only can the cost be recovered, but it may also be the chicken that lays golden eggs. You see, the value of these gift orders is more than 7,000 taels of silver. If the railway did not make such a big profit, would they give such a heavy gift?
