- The capital city is as prosperous and noisy as ever. This city with an increasingly large population is like a monster, devouring huge supplies and producing huge commodities.
South District Xincheng Oil Street, Oil Street, as the name suggests, all the shops opened here are all kinds of shops selling oil.
Here you can buy a variety of oils. Tea oil and rapeseed oil from the south are people¡¯s favorites. Although tea oil has a bit of a bitter taste, it is excellent for the body. Although rapeseed oil Big, but it has always been a favorite of Jiangnan people.
The olive oil from Europe is gradually being accepted by everyone, and it is the best for salad dressing. Of course, if you have no money and your family income is tight, you can buy lard and sheep oil from the Western Regions and the river. Oil and butter, which were not available to anyone before, are now extremely cheap.
Of course, in addition to these cooking oils, the most sold oil on Oil Street is naturally the oil used for lighting.
Candle oil shops can be found everywhere, but candles are generally used by families without money. For people in the capital, whale oil is naturally the most popular one.
Whale oil is resistant to burning and has no smell. The key is that there is no smoke. It is a very ideal lighting oil. At night, every household will light a whale oil lamp.
When night comes, whale oil lamps illuminate thousands of households, lighting up the night in the capital, and the night markets are even brightly lit.
Shopkeeper Peng came to Oil Street as usual to buy a batch of whale oil lamps to go back to. As the owner of a night market store, his store business is often concentrated at night.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT TO GO Shopping at night, so the night market in Xincheng, South District, is very lively at night.
Naturally, a large amount of whale oil is consumed every day. For the sake of business, these bosses also try their best to make their stores brighter, so that it is more convenient for customers to come and consume.
"Shopkeeper Miao, as usual, bring me a barrel of whale oil and deliver it to my shop."
Still going to the familiar oil store, he didn¡¯t waste any time and spoke directly.
"Shopkeeper Peng, shopkeeper Peng~"
"Please sit down for a moment, sit down for a moment."
Seeing an acquaintance, Shopkeeper Peng, coming over, Shopkeeper Miao quickly smiled and said, "This whale oil is in short supply right now, and the price has also risen a lot. I have to tell you about this."
"The price has increased again?"
When shopkeeper Peng heard this, he immediately shouted out that this whale oil is getting more expensive day by day.
"Yeah, there's nothing we can do about it. The price we get now has risen to 2 taels of silver per barrel. You are my old customer. I will only earn you 500 cents. What do you think?"
Shopkeeper Miao also quickly explained: "There are fewer and fewer whales now, and there are fewer and fewer whales. The whale oil coming now comes from Shandong, Nanzhili, and Tianjin." There is very little whale oil left now, and the whalers have gone south.¡±
¡°There are no more whales?¡±
Shopkeeper Peng was also dumbfounded. He thought about it and said: A few years ago, the business of those whaling ships was very good. It is said that whales can be seen everywhere in the Bohai Bay. "
¡°That was a few years ago. Whaling is so powerful now. Not only are there very few whales in the Bohai Bay, it¡¯s even hard to catch fish.¡±
"Many of the fish coming here now come from Zhejiang. The sea area in Zhejiang is very fishy. Now many fishing companies and the like have moved to Songhu."
"Also, many people are now going to Japan to fish and hunt whales. In the future, there will be less whale oil and the price will be higher."
"It seems that the imperial court also intends to ban whaling in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea. It is said that we cannot exhaust the lake to catch fish, but we must leave some seeds for future generations."
Shopkeeper Miao explained with a smile.
"What should I do?"
"If there is no whale oil, how will we be able to light up at night?"
"You can't light candles, that would be too classy." At this time pddxsw.com Zhang Si
Shopkeeper Peng also nodded slightly after hearing this. He had also read about this in the newspaper. There are fewer and fewer whaling ships and fishing ships in Tianjin, and they are all heading towards the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea.
"That's right~"
"We can't let everyone continue to work as the sun rises and rest as before. There is no problem in the countryside, but we are in the city. Many factories even have to light up the lights at night to work overtime when they are rushing to deliver goods. .¡±
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??? also nodded and said.
¡°Dang~dang~¡±
At this moment, there was a sound of gongs and drums outside.
"The kerosene store is open, the kerosene store is open~"
¡°It¡¯s a big reward for the opening, a big reward for the opening.¡±
"Buy two barrels and get one free. One barrel only costs 200 Wen. It is no worse than whale oil for lighting. Come and buy it quickly. Don't miss it when you pass by. Cheap and easy-to-use kerosene is here!"
Hearing the sound, Shopkeepers Peng and Miao also hurriedly walked out and took a look. It was a newly opened oil store that was advertising and promoting with great fanfare.
"Kerosene?"
"What kind of oil is kerosene?"
The two people looked at each other and quickly looked over curiously.
I saw a series of oil lamps hanging at the door of the kerosene store. These oil lamps are filled with glass bottles, and you can see the transparent and slightly yellow oil inside. 强牺 pddxsw.com 读牺
?Looking at the burning of these lamps, they are all very stable, and there is not much smoke, only a slight smell.
"Boss, what kind of kerosene is this?" Zhida z.com Zhixiao
Shopkeeper Peng came over, looked at it carefully, and asked curiously.
"This kerosene is refined from petroleum. You can take a look. This kerosene is a little different from the whale oil we usually burn, but the effect is similar. It burns very stably, without any smoke or odor. The key is to add It¡¯s also very convenient to get up, just open the opening and pour the oil in.¡±
"Of course, the most important thing is that this kerosene is very cheap. A full barrel of it only costs 200 Wen. Now if you buy two barrels at a time, you can get one for free."

"The price can be said to be very cheap, and it is also very resistant to burning. It is definitely the best choice for everyone's lighting."
When the waiter heard about it, he quickly started selling it hard.
"A bucket full of 200 yuan is really not expensive~"
"Looking at the way it's burning, it does look okay."
"Bring me a bucket and try it first."
Someone heard it on the spot and paid for it.
It¡¯s really too cheap, 200 taels of silver per barrel. A barrel of the same size and whale oil costs at least 2 taels of silver. This one only costs 200 taels of silver, which is more than ten times the price difference.
"What kind of oil is this oil?"
Shopkeeper Peng asked curiously.
"Petroleum is just like fire oil. It's the kind of black oil that burns just a little bit."
"Now professors and students of Daming Institute of Technology have developed technology that can extract various high-quality oils from petroleum. Kerosene is one of them, and it is the best for lighting."
"It's very cheap and very stable. Use kerosene and our special kerosene lamp. It can be hung on a carriage or a bicycle in the future, and it can provide good lighting even at night."
The waiter explained while taking out a special kerosene lamp.
"Kerosene lamp~"
When shopkeeper Peng heard this, he looked at it carefully.
The waiter also lit the kerosene lamp, and then held it in his hand and kept shaking it. However, no matter how he shook it, the burning of the kerosene lamp was still very stable, and the light was abundant. The lampshade on the top of the kerosene lamp can emit light and concentrate the light below. . 强牺 hxjxs.com 读牺
"This thing is very good!"
Shopkeeper Peng couldn't help but admire it when he saw it.
"If you think it's good, why don't you buy a few barrels of kerosene and go back?"
¡°It happens to be opening today, and there are discounts.¡±
When the waiter heard this, he quickly smiled and said. At this time h*xjxs.c*o m Zhang Si
"Okay, give me two barrels to try first to see if this kerosene works well."
Shopkeeper Peng thought for a moment and nodded.
This kerosene is so cheap, and it is a good deal anyway. I use a lot of oil in my store, so this whale oil is getting more and more expensive, and the key is that it may become less and less in the future.
Now that there is kerosene, if it is like what they say, then it will be very good to use kerosene in the future.
"Give me two barrels, give me two barrels." Zhida z.com Zhixiao
Other people watching the excitement also spoke up one after another. The kerosene looked really good. It was cheap, very bright when lit, and resistant to burning. It didn¡¯t have much smell or smoke. This was enough. Now, the common people can¡¯t afford to burn whale oil
