Chapter 138: Shopping
The eldest princess shrunk into the water, turned her head to see that there was no one around, and then relieved. The exhaustion of the whole body was gone, the eldest princess relaxed her body, soaked in the warm pool and inspected the room, the boss invested a lot of money for this bathroom, the floor of the room was paved with square ceramics, and even the walls of the bathing pool were inlaid with white ceramics. The palace of the Mongol Great Khan was not so lavishly furnished. What's even more strange is that Princess Celestia didn't find a charcoal fire in the house, and after such a long time, the room was still so warm and didn't feel cold at all. When I return to Naturalization City, I must find a way to build one like this, so that I can bathe in hot water every day.
After soaking in the pool for a long time, the whole person has a soft feeling, and the eldest princess came out of the pool, wiped off the water droplets on her body, got dressed and returned to her room, which was also warm, making people have a lazy feeling. Princess Celestia found that there was no charcoal fire in this house, but the room was exceptionally warm.
Out of curiosity, Princess Celestia ordered the guards to call the woman in the inn and ask them why.
The woman patiently explained to the Celestia, "All this thanks to our handsome, who taught us to build the heater, the thing in the corner. ”
Why is everything related to Zhang Chu, the eldest princess thought to herself. She followed the woman's hand and looked into the corner of the wall, where there was a strange square object, which looked like it was made of iron, and to which was attached a pipe. Celestia walked over and felt a stream of heat coming from above. She reached out to touch it, but the woman hurried over and stopped her: "Be careful, it will burn." ”
"Is this iron thing heating up?" Princess Celestia wondered how iron could heat up.
"No, it's the water in the pipe that heats up, and the iron just dissipates the heat from the water. The master of our Dashuai Jiao factory made a boiler for boiling water, and connected the boiler with this iron block with an iron pipe, and the boiler boiled hot water, and the iron block emitted the heat in the hot water. The house is not cold, only the upper room like you live has this heating, which can cost our boss a lot of money. The woman must have been asked many times about the heating, and the answer was very clear.
thanked the woman and asked her to quit, the eldest princess thought that there are always some novelties in Fugu, and she must take a good look in Fugu tomorrow to see what new tricks Zhang Chu has.
In the warm room, the eldest princess slept soundly, the fatigue of the whole way disappeared, and she woke up in the morning feeling full of energy.
Merchants are in charge of the trade of goods. Now Princess Celestia has nothing to do. The four female guards were also very bored in the house, the five of them stared at each other, it would be a loss not to go out for a walk in Fugu, the eldest princess sent a guard out to see what Guiying was doing, and the guard quickly brought back the news, Gui Yingcha went out early in the morning, this is a good opportunity, now is a good opportunity to go out and walk on the street, if Gui Ying is there, it should be troublesome.
The five people quietly left the hotel and walked onto the streets of Fugu, at first the eldest princess also paid attention to her identity, trying to maintain a dignified appearance, and the four guards also dutifully guarded, and gradually they were attracted by the lively scene on the street, the eldest princess turned into a shopaholic, and the guards could only become porters. The eldest princess doesn't want to buy anything expensive, as long as the novelty will attract her attention regardless of whether it is expensive or cheap, and the five of them have no image at all. Higgling and joking as he walked. attracted the attention of passers-by. The eldest princess doesn't care about this, the Han people just have a lot of stinky rules, and it is said that girls are usually not allowed to go out, and they don't go out of the house when they are closed at home. The eldest princess knows a lot about the Han people, but she forgot that this is in Fugu, there will always be many unexpected things happening, and a group of girls who came from the front directly subverted the eldest princess's perception of Han etiquette.
The Han girls not only took to the streets like her, wandering and shopping on the streets, but also walked and laughed regardless of their image. Some of these girls dress up even more differently, not wearing long skirts that mop the floor like other women, but wearing short clothes and trousers, and the well-cut clothes naturally show the body curves of the girls.
When did the Han people become so open, everything in Fugu was different. When the girls were gone, Princess Celestia and the Guardian went to a roadside stall and asked the old woman who was selling things about the girls.
The old woman was very talkative, and happily accosted them, "Look at the dresses of a few girls from the grassland, our Fugu has changed a lot these days, don't say that you outsiders, even I, a native of China, are a little uncomfortable, the girls you asked are all female workers in the woolen mill." "Isn't the woollen mill a place where wool is spun, aren't women supposed to work?" But in the middle of the day, they are not afraid of being deducted by the boss when they walk on the street? "Fugu has recently purchased a large amount of wool from the Mongols, so when it comes to wool mills, the guards are naturally associated with wool spinning." Today is a day off for the factory, and the factory will have a half-day off every seven days, and the girls can go out shopping and buy things, and the wages will be paid. The old woman knew the situation of the factory very well, and patiently told them about the situation of the factory in order to win over the customers.
"And such a kind boss, who doesn't go to work and pays his salary?" The guards were very interested in the matter of wages.
"The woolen mill was opened by the handsome Zhang Chu, these workers used to be homeless people who were about to starve to death, it was the handsome who saved them, they were in charge of food and shelter in the factory, and they also issued new clothes, and the handsome would not care about the money." The old woman replied.
"Those short clothes are from the factory, right? They are not afraid of other people's jokes when they dress on the street like this, don't you Han people pay attention to any etiquette? "Celestia's attention is still on the girls' clothes." Who dares to laugh at the handsome people, this girl works by herself to support herself, in the words of the handsome, it is called self-reliance, and those poor and sour literati will write some nonsense articles and have the face to say anything about etiquette. The clothes are easy to do and beautiful, and some women in Fugu who are not female workers still make clothes to wear. The old woman was very open-minded.
While he was talking, a carriage came from the street, guarded by many horseback guards in front of and behind the car, and the people on the street consciously gave way to the road, and the carriage came to a very luxuriously decorated shop and stopped, and a petite figure got out of the car, and the people around him saluted him. "What kind of person is this, everybody is going to salute her?" Celestia raised her own questions. "This is Miss Yue, the president of Zhongyang Bank, all the money in the security army is in the hands of Miss Yue, Miss Yue is engaged to Dashuai, but I don't know when I will get married." Now the security army is sorry that when the marshal wants to get married, he is interrupted by the war every time.
Zhang Chu's woman, I want to see what kind of woman Zhang Chu likes.
After taking the goods and giving the old woman money, the eldest princess walked with the guards to the shop called the bank, where she wanted to meet the woman for a while. (To be continued.) )
