    The sun has set, and it's dusk.

    Just when Luo Erzhu began to miss his wife and daughter, Luo Liu and Luo Chunxi had already entered the gate of Jinshan City in the eighteenth-century style carriage of the young officer Zheng Peipei.

    The environment inside Jinshan City is different from the environment outside. After coming out of the thirty-meter-long arched doorway, you will see an extremely prosperous scene.

    The streets paved with cement are clean and tidy. Considering that the number of people will increase in the future, Wang Shan requested that the streets be very wide when planning, designing and constructing them.

    Even so, there were a lot of people on the street bustling with people.

    Thanks to Wang Shan¡¯s persistence, the roads were not overcrowded.

    An Indian with bright feathers on his head carries a unique Indian spear on his shoulder.  There were also a few pheasants hanging on the spears. It seemed that the Indian hunter had a good harvest today.

    Lying on the small window of the carriage, little girl Luo Chunxi looked curiously at the scenery on the street and the people who were completely different from Daming.

    The black carriage drove through the middle of the street and had little impact on the pedestrians on the street.

    Luo Chunxi was overwhelmed by the densely packed shops and dazzling signboards on both sides of the street.

    Completely different from Daming, the signboards here are very flashy, using many eye-catching color patterns.

    In Daming, it¡¯s just like hanging a signboard of a certain shop. It¡¯s not as colorful as the shops here.

    The little girl Luo Chunxi may not understand that those who can open shops in Jinshan City are all Chinese descendants of the top group in the Song Empire.

    These genetic people of Chinese descent have all been instilled and baptized with modern consciousness in their minds.

    Therefore, they all understand one thing, that is eyeball economy.

    Therefore, in order to attract customers, it is of course necessary to make the sign more colorful.

    This is seen in the eyes of the little girl Luo Chunxi.  It becomes bells and whistles.

    But there is nothing that can be done about it. The ideological generation gap is too big. Luo Chunxi was a young Lolita from the Ming Dynasty in the early seventeenth century. How could she understand these principles.

    It is worth mentioning that although the shops here in Jinshan City have very fancy signs, they have indeed attracted a large number of people to come and spend money.

    It can be seen that such a method is still very good.

    Because Jinshan City is on the west coast of America, the largest number of pedestrians on the streets of this city, apart from Chinese, are Indians.

    It¡¯s completely different from Manhattan, Quebec and Ontario on the East Coast.

    On the streets of several cities over there.  You can see a lot of Europeans with blond hair and blue eyes.

    But here in Jinshan City, the number of Europeans is much smaller.

    ¡°However, it is not that there are no Europeans in Jinshan City, it¡¯s just that their number is too small.

    There are more than 300 European soldiers in the legion under King Shan of Jinshan City.

    However, these 300 European soldiers were too few when placed in Jinshan City, which had a population of more than 400,000.

    In addition, Wang Shan¡¯s European-American fianc¨¦e also has several European-American maids.

    But it¡¯s impossible for these maids to just wander the streets all day long.

    It is precisely because of this.  The little girl Luo Chunxi, who was sitting on the carriage and looking around, did not see the blond Europeans, but all she could see were a large number of Indians.

    Although the Indians here in Jinshan City have become imperial citizens.  However, some of their living habits have not changed much.

    Therefore, their clothes are still the same as before.

    ¡°At most, it is in winter that I would wear the green military coat sold here in the Song Empire to keep warm.

    Of course.  Most of the people who maintain this habit are Indian adults.

    ¡°For example, the Indian teenagers in the Jinshan City area accept new things very quickly.

    Wang Shan adopted the method in Manhattan.  New Oriental branch was opened in Jinshan City.

    Those Indian children in the Jinshan area were recruited into the school for brainwashing.

    It¡¯s very difficult to change adults anyway, but it¡¯s easy to change the minds of minors.

    At the same time, these changed minors will also slowly change their family and friends through practice.  In this way, the final result is much better than directly changing adults.Therefore, most of the Indian adults Luo Chunxi saw were dressed in unique Indian costumes.

    But the young Indians on the street are completely different.

    Those teenagers walking on the street were wearing white vests, a green spring coat, a pair of military green trousers, and even a pair of military green shoes with rubber soles on their feet.

    This outfit is completely from another time and space, the fashionable clothing of the 1950s and 1960s.

    Unexpectedly, Wang Shan actually introduced this kind of clothing to Jinshan City in this era.

    But don¡¯t tell me, the Indian teenagers here like this style of clothing very much.

    To be honest, compared to their previous outfits, they are much better.

    Luo Chunxi saw many groups of Indian children wearing this kind of clothing and playing in the streets.

    They walked in groups on the street, their faces filled with joy, and the friends chatted loudly from time to time.

    You can¡¯t see such a scene on the streets of Daming.

    But it can be seen that the children are very happy.

    Luo Chunxi felt envious from the bottom of her heart.

    Yes, children like to play with children, especially children of Luo Chunxi's age.

    It¡¯s just that, in Ming Dynasty, she didn¡¯t have such a chance at all.

    In my hometown, every family has a hard time eating, and the children also suffer the same.

    Who can go out and play in such an environment?

    Even when I leave the house, I do things with the adults to help the family.

    Therefore, for Luo Chunxi, there are really not many memories of playing in her poor memory.

    Among the groups of Indian children on the streets of Jinshan, there are some who are shopping, some squatting on the ground playing with pieces of paper, some playing glass balls and throwing sandbags, etc.

    In short, in another time and space.  The simple games that Chinese children could play in the 1960s and 1970s can be played by Indian children here in Jinshan City.

    Those Indian children all carried a military green canvas schoolbag diagonally across their shoulders.

    Needless to say, this kind of schoolbag is also popular and a product of another time and space, the 1960s and 1970s.

    Even in the 1980s and early 1990s, Chinese students were still using it.

    This time happens to be the time when children are out of school, so no wonder there are so many children on the streets.

    Like the children in another time and space, these Indian children after school.  Also not in a hurry to go home, but started playing in the street.

    At this time, the idle vendors on the street saw the opportunity to do business and shuttled among the playing children one by one.

    These vendors sell candy canes, popsicles and other snacks.

    Children like these the most.

    Whether it is a candy man or a popsicle, there is not much technical content.

    Therefore, letting some people from Jinshan City do a small business or something can be regarded as giving them a way out.

    Of course, we are a big wholesaler of popsicles.  But definitely of Chinese descent.

    These Indian-origin vendors go out to wholesale candies and popsicles every day, and then start selling them in the streets.

    Although it is early spring, the children of Jinshan City.  Still can't resist the temptation of candy man and popsicles.

    At the same time, these small vendors will also sell some other small commodities.

    For example, glass balls and paper cards are popular among children.  Small things like sandbags.

    ¡°Those children had just finished school, and this time period happened to be the time when school was over. So there were more children on the street, which is not a very unusual thing in the city.¡±

    The young officer Zheng Peipei saw the little lolita Luo Chunxi lying on the window of the carriage.  Looking eagerly at the children playing, there was an extremely longing look in his eyes.

    Therefore, Zheng Peipei smiled and explained to the somewhat nervous Luo Liu.

    Along the way, Mrs. Luo Liu was very quiet.

    It is estimated that this woman is afraid of speaking casually, as it will be bad if she says something wrong.

    Therefore, because of such consideration and caution, Mrs. Luo Liu remained silent.

    She has also been paying attention to her daughter's behavior.

    ¡°In addition to worrying about herself, she is also worried that her daughter is too young and will do things to annoy her master¡¯s family.

      The little girl kept leaning on the window of the carriage and looking out. Mrs. Luo Liu had long wanted to scold her.

    But she didn¡¯t dare.

    After all, Zheng Peipei is still sitting there.

    How much grace is it for the ladies to make them into such a luxurious carriage.

    You, Luo Chunxi, should at least be respectful.

    How can you look around randomly?

    Although it is outside the car, it is not good.

    Although Luo Liu is a peasant woman, she is cautious and has many things to consider.

    Of course, the main thing is the salary of eighty taels a month, which she values ????very much.

    Actually, Zheng Peipei, a genetically-Chinese girl, is not the kind of person who is hard to talk to.

    She doesn¡¯t have the bad habits of those young ladies in Ming Dynasty.

    Therefore, Luo Liu¡¯s worries are totally unnecessary.

    It¡¯s just that Luo Liu doesn¡¯t know about these.

    After all, she and Zheng Peipei just met today.

    "Nanny, hurry up and do it."

    Ms. Luo Liu pulled her daughter, and then smiled apologetically at Zheng Peipei.

    "Xiao Chunxi, do you want to eat a popsicle too?"

    ? Almost guessing Luo Liu¡¯s cautious thoughts, Zheng Peipei seemed a little helpless about this.

    Therefore, she could only ignore Luo Liu for the time being.

    It seems that if I want to turn them into women who are as independent and confident as myself, I still have a long way to go.

    Zheng Peipei sighed deeply in her heart.

    When Luo Chunxi was questioned, she lowered her head in fear, like a little ostrich.

    "I don't want to eat if I am happy in spring."

    ??There is no child who doesn¡¯t like eating popsicles.

    "Stop!" Zheng Peipei knocked on the carriage, and the driver in front tightened the reins.  "It just so happens that you are going to live in my house, so I need to buy you some toiletries. It just so happens that this is a shopping street, so let's go shopping here."

    The coachman had already arrived at the car door, opened it, and Zheng Peipei walked out.

    Seeing Zheng Peipei moving, Luo Liu quickly pulled Luo Chunxi and walked away together.

    "Why bother Miss? We are just servants and we don't dare to trouble Miss."

    Ms. Luo Liu is not the kind of person who is short-sighted and greedy for petty gains, so she quickly refused.

    But how could Zheng Peipei change her mind just because of her rejection?

    "Let's go. Since you are my servants, you have to listen to my words from now on. Is it possible that you will turn a deaf ear to my words now?"

    "Zheng Peipei's words are a bit heartbreaking.

    If one of them is bad, you will get into big trouble.

    Therefore, Mrs. Luo Liu was so submissive that she did not dare to continue talking.

    Now for Ms. Luo Liu, the smartest thing she can do is to follow the words of Miss Zheng Peipei. Just do whatever she says, and everything will be fine.

    "Lao Li, you watch the carriage here, I will take the two of them to buy something."

    After Zheng Peipei saw Mrs. Luo Liu lowering her head and feeling a little uneasy, she turned around and gave instructions to her black coachman.

    The black coachman, who was a slave, responded angrily, then walked to the carriage and stood on the side honestly.  (To be continued)
