There is a well on the 37th Street of Kan District, which is called Karez. There is an iron chain as thick as a young arm at the mouth of the well, year after year, hanging in the wellhead, when there is this well with this iron chain, and who repairs this well to put this iron chain, no one knows the truth for a long time, even the oldest old man on the 37th Street, can not say a word.

There have also been well-wishers who have tried to test the length of the chain despite the dissuasion of the elderly, but the end result has always been a failure. So much so that in the end, no one paid attention to the chain.

The water in the qanats is cold and sweet, and many people come here to get water on weekdays, and when the heat is unbearable in summer, the water from the qanats becomes a must-have choice to quench their thirst.

Dongluo carried two small wooden barrels and waited anxiously behind the long queue to fetch water, and there were many people who came to fetch water, and the line seemed a little lengthy. People who know each other in twos and threes will naturally come together, and for these people who seem to have nothing to do, gossip parents are naturally essential.

What came out of their mouths was nothing more than the recent increase in the price of some training materials, and the decline of some training materials. Whoever buys low and sells high therefore lives in the building, and who loses money.

Dongluo didn't care much about these things, all he really cared about was how many people were still queuing up at the front of the line to get water. In these places, there is no need to worry about someone not following the rules and cutting in line, Bi Jing is a neighbor left and right, and he doesn't see him when he looks up. Unless there is really an emergency, if you cut the queue, not only will you not be able to save face, but I am afraid it will not be long before some woman with a broken mouth will inevitably take out the unsightly things that his ancestors have done for generations to bask in the sun.

As for the big families, they would never come to this kind of place to get water. Everyone has an ice cellar, and there are tricks for heat dissipation and heat relief.

"Ergouzi, go to the front and see how many people there are?" Dongluo didn't feel unbearable in the crowd, but felt that queuing up to get water like this was a bit ...... Boring.

A little girl holding a black cat with a small black fur ball on her head let out a sigh and squeezed into the crowd.

After a while, the little girl with her cheeks flushed came back and said, "Not much, only more than ten people." The Little White Turtle's house is the same, and there is not even an ice cellar. It's a hot day for us to queue up here to get water. ”

Dongluo said with a smile: "If you call Zhang Baigui the little white turtle again, I'm afraid you will really be locked out by him." The ice cellar is not an ordinary object, not to mention that Uncle Zhang is an honest official, so naturally he has no spare money to repair the ice cellar. ”

The girl wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with her hand, her voice was dry, and she whispered: "I didn't say it to him, how could he know." If it weren't for the fact that they were afraid of disrupting the balance in your body, why would they be queuing up here to get water!"

Dongluo stood on tiptoe to look at the team in front of him, and found that there were not many left, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the girl who squatted in the shade of the tree and covered the black cat with a lotus leaf that I didn't know where I picked it, and then kept fanning the cool with her little hands.

Dongluo said angrily: "I told you not to come out, you have to follow." You're not as gifted as I am, and you're not afraid of the heat. ”

The girl didn't speak, just smiled, like the first small lotus in the pond after the summer showed sharp horns, extremely beautiful.

It's just that the boy has already stood on tiptoe again to look at the team in front of him, and missed this moving scene.

The qanats are made of green bricks.

Dongluo walked to the well, and stretched out his head to look at the mouth of the well for no reason, the well was pitch black, and he didn't know how deep it was. Occasionally, you can hear one or two ticks of water that has accumulated on the wall of the well for a long time and falls back into the well, which is very distinct.

The arm-thick iron chain silently and silently went straight into the deep water at the mouth of the well, and Dongluo suddenly wanted to touch the iron chain, and wanted to think very much.

Dongluo stretched out his free left hand and stared into the palm of his hand.

The palm is mottled and complex.

Dongluo slowly put his hand on the iron chain that tied the dead knot at one end to the bottom of the well's wheels.

I thought the chain would be cold, but when I felt it in my hand, it was the opposite. It has the texture of metal, but it is not as cold as metal, as if it is as warm as a furnace.

A warmth hit his palm, and it was only for a moment, and Dongluo felt that his cold and stiff limbs had a little warmth again. The feeling is familiar.

Dongluo was wondering why this was happening, and there was an impatient urging sound behind the voice.

Dongluo didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly withdrew his hand, fetched well water, and left in a hurry. It's just that before he left, he couldn't help but look back at the chain again.

Dongluo's mind was blank when he returned to Zhang's house, and he figured out where the familiar warmth on the chain came from.

After the water from the qanats leaves the well, the cold still spreads, and in the summer, as long as you put a bucket in the house, the water vapor will be filled, and you will not feel hot. It's just that it doesn't take long for the water to get hot and become normal, so it should be changed all the time.

Just like the shops in Luoyang City, they are changing all the time. There are very few century-old brands in places where every inch of land is valuable, because most shops do not have a strong foundation to avoid various risks, and they cannot withstand several commercial turbulences.

In the three-month rise and fall of prices, it is not only the pill shop and the spiritual weapon shop that have been hit, but also some large merchants who have lost money or made a lot of money after being involved in this inexplicable game, but they are not as big as the blow suffered by the pill shop and the spirit weapon shop.

Those who lost money withdrew from the business circle, and those who made nothing rose again. Some new industries have sprung up to replace the old ones.

There is a Hongfu money store in the 19th lane of Kun District, which is a common thing in Luoyang, where the economy is turbulent today. But the establishment of this money bank once again stirred up the sensitive nerves of the Luoyang people who had been bumping back and forth in the ups and downs for three months.

What should I do if the price of the red blood vine rises in price? stock up and then cash out at the highest point.

What should I do if the price of Ziyun copper rises? Stock up and then cash out at the highest point.

......

Prices are skyrocketing, and everything you stock up on today will likely become your chance to develop tomorrow.

Can you watch people who are poorer than you live a better life than you and you still have nothing?

Can you watch someone who is single like you marry a wife and take a concubine, and you are still alone in the empty house?

......

If you can't, come to my Hongfu Money Shop! Save your money today and invest in your better tomorrow. Today the building is high, and tomorrow you will marry a wife and take a concubine.

Do you want to get rich overnight? Do you want to hug left and right? Then come to my Hongfu Money Shop! We will make your dreams come true.

Under a series of commercial speculation, Hongfu Money Bank has become unexpectedly popular, and more and more people have begun to talk about Hongfu Money Bank.

"What kind of business is this Hongfu money store? ”

"Money. You saved one tael of silver in Hongfu Money Bank today and received a ticket stub, and a month later you can get two taels of silver when you come to Hongfu Money Bank with a ticket stub. ”

"I don't believe it, that's such a good thing, I can't earn a few taels of silver a month!

"I don't know if it's crazy or not, if what this Hongfu Money Bank said is true, then we must have earned it. ”

......

There is a restaurant not far from Hongfu Money Bank, and there is a table of banquets at the window of the restaurant's private room.

Dongluo and Jang Baek-gyu sat at the window, looking at the street downstairs. took a sip of wine and said: "After three months of teasing, the economy has been almost destroyed, and the nerves of the people in Luoyang City at this time should be very fragile!"

Zhang Baigui took a sip of sake and said with a faint smile: "It's very fragile, and those who have money don't dare to buy it, for fear of losing money." Those who don't have money can't afford it, so they can only watch and do it in a hurry. ”

"It's just that they are anxious and uncomfortable, so I came to relieve them. What this person is most afraid of is conformity. The right is also followed, and the wrong is also followed, and in the end, it is impossible to distinguish what is right and what is wrong. had to fall into the fate of the individual. Dongluo's eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at the entire street. Quietly watching the more and more people gathered at the door of Hongfu Money Store.

Zhang Baigui nodded approvingly, and said: "I think that the more than 20 money stores in Luoyang City should not be much different from the grand occasion of this one in front of us! All the money we have earned in the past three months has been smashed in this! Don't make any mistakes!"

Dongluo shook his head and said, "Don't worry! ”

It seems that there is no shortage of people to watch the excitement anywhere, no matter what happens, as long as there are many people in a place, the irresistible curiosity will always drive people to take a look at that place.

Hongfu Qian Xing saw that the people outside the door were almost gathered, and a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper swaggered towards a high platform built in advance.

The middle-aged man came to a megaphone on the high platform and pressed his hands weakly and said, "Fellow villagers, please be quiet." I am Jia Mingzhi, the shopkeeper of Hongfu Money Bank. Thanks to the love of all the neighbors, we braved the scorching sun to participate in the opening ceremony of our store. ”

The middle-aged man looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, blocked the dazzling sunlight with his hand, and then looked down at the people gathered together waiting for him, and suddenly smiled: "Come on, take 100,000 taels of silver and scatter it for me, on such a hot day, I want to listen to the sound of rain!" ”

"Yes!"

"Bang ~~~~~~~~~~~!"

In an instant, 100,000 taels of broken silver, like heavy rain, burst out in the 19th lane of Kun District, where Hongfu Money Bank is located.

Lane 19 in Kun District was silent for a moment. The people gathered in Hongfu Qian Xing were stunned, and the people who were enjoying the cool at home were stunned. The people who were drinking and chatting in the restaurant were stunned, and the shopkeeper who was just about to serve food to Dongluo and others was also stunned.

Even Zhang Baigui, who was about to pour wine in the restaurant, widened his eyes. The wine spilled out of the glass without realizing it.

Just to listen to a sound? 100,000 silver, like a rainstorm falling, bursting all over the alley?

Everyone was stunned, and many people showed disbelief, until the first piece of silver landed with a ding dong.

"Coax ~~~~~~~~~!"

The people of Kun Nineteen Lane rushed up, and hundreds of people went crazy with excitement in an instant, it was really silver. Many people who picked up the silver shouted frantically.

Countless people at home, drinking and chatting, regardless of the current heat, rushed out of the house and out of the restaurant, and didn't care whether they were wearing clothes or not, just picking up money. No one has ever thought they had a lot of money.

"It's real silver! God of Wealth!"

"Don't rob me, mine, mine!"

"God of Wealth!"

The sound of laughter and laughter came everywhere in Kun Nineteen Lane.

There are hundreds of thousands of people in Nineteen Lane, but 100,000 silver, which can be shared by one person, is so explosive? No wonder the people are extremely excited.

Dongluo looked at the people who had fallen into madness, took a sip of wine and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "It can be regarded as taking from the people, and returning it to the people!"
