The old man scalded the remaining two bowls, mixed three bowls of sauce and sent them to the table.

"You three slow to use. ”

He had other guests, and he didn't have time to chat with Li Qingyun all the time.

"It seems that the development of this Lanshui City is not bad. ”

Li Qingyun sandwiched a little food and dipped it in the sauce, which tasted good and had a different flavor.

Although the old man didn't say much just now, Li Qingyun basically said what he wanted.

The people of Lanshui City are not small, and there are definitely attractive places, so there are people who come from afar to do business here.

The old man set up a stall until dawn, which means that the city is safe, and there are many pedestrians day and night.

These people may be ordinary people begging for livelihood on the docks, or they may be merchants who accompany the goods.

From this point of view, the two deputy city lords of Lanshui City can still do it.

"Little master, is this really that delicious?"

Yu asked with a frown, fiddling with the greens and meat in the bowl.

He has always been more concerned about what he eats, and he has never eaten on the street, but now that he sees Li Qingyun and Xu Jiayin eating so deliciously, he can't help but be a little suspicious.

"Really, I don't believe you try it yourself. ”

Li Qingyun didn't care about this, although he grew up in brocade clothes and jade food, but when he practiced his heart in the third life, he didn't eat anything?

This old man came out to do business so late, obviously he has a unique skill, not to mention, it is really fragrant to eat.

Yu was still a little hesitant.

"You don't eat it, do you? ”

Xu Jiayin saw that he was picking and picking, and he wanted to reach out and grab it, but Yu hurriedly protected the bowl.

"Taste it, it's not poisoned. ”

Li Qingyun looked at Yu very funny, but he didn't expect that this person who couldn't beat a fart with half a stick on weekdays would actually have a habit of cleanliness when eating.

Yu finally made up his mind, sandwiched a little green vegetables, dipped them in the dipping sauce, and put them in his mouth.

Half an hour later, Li Qingyun said to the old man, dropped a piece of silver, left three stacks of empty bowls, took the two of them, and left contentedly.

......

Early the next morning, after coming out of the inn, Yu still wanted to find the stall and eat again, Li Qingyun hurriedly grabbed him, ate a little around the inn, and rushed out of the city.

According to last night's discovery, the most important place in Lanjiang City should be the wharf.

This Lanjiang River is quite wide, and the place near Lanjiang City is the widest, and the wharf is built here.

When he arrived at the shore, a trace of surprise flashed in Li Qingyun's eyes, this pier is not small, although it is not as large as Fengping City, but it is quite good.

The entire waterfront, as far as the eye can see, is all made of bluestone and neat, and there are hundreds of building ships, moored on the water.

Two huge docks, one for loading and the other for unloading, are all densely packed with workers, who are in full swing.

In addition, there are several smaller piers for boat riders to get on and off, which is really a prosperous scene.

"It seems that this Lanjiang City should be a very important place for the Wang family. ”

Li Qingyun sighed with some emotion, in the half a year in Yaocheng, he already had a certain degree of understanding of the major families.

The Wang family is worthy of being the top three families in the Yaocheng General's Mansion, and they actually set their sights on this place early.

If he hadn't been prepared enough yesterday, he really didn't know that among the thirty-six cities in the Northland, there was such a city with great potential.

"Major General, does this have an idea?"

Xu Jiayin glanced at Li Qingyun with a smile and asked with bad intentions.

"I can't say an idea, I just have an idea, the thirty-six cities in the Northland, you have to go through it first before you can really start to do it. ”

Li Qingyun shook his head, although he was a patrol, he didn't know much about the current situation in the Northland.

Li Zhenyuan's order to him was to let the major cities in the north become big cities, and there are still some places that are not developing well.

He always has to have a rough understanding before he can deploy the cities and let the Northland slowly return to its former vitality. Fortunately, I was very satisfied with the first city I saw, and I hope to give him some surprises in the future.

"Let's go, let's go to the city again, and we can go to the next city." ”

After speaking, Li Qingyun turned around and walked towards Lanjiang City.

He didn't have much time this time, Yun Yin was already four months pregnant, and the rest of the time was not enough for him to go through all the cities.

So this time, Li Qingyun only planned to look at the south first, and wait until the child landed, and then look at the rest.

Lanjiang City was newly built on the previous site, and it can be seen that the city lord is quite ambitious, not only demolishing all the ruins in the city, but even slowly expanding outward.

And the people are more than last night, busy, and obviously very hopeful. Reading Building

Occasionally, there will be a city guard walking through the streets, dealing with a little dispute, or, maintaining order, and orderly.

The whole Lanjiang City presents a thriving scene.

"It's quite interesting, the first time I saw the city guards was actually one by one. ”

Xu Jiayin looked at the city guard who was helping the two stall owners settle the dispute, and he was very emotional.

"This shows that the city doesn't need so many city guards to solve it together. Li Qingyun explained with a smile.

The situation in each place is different, like Yaocheng, there is no need for city guards at all, and even if there is friction between the stall owners on both sides, they will wait until the stall is closed to solve it.

As for cultivators who dare to make trouble in the city, it is even less common, after all, even if you cultivate highly, you can't afford to provoke Li Zhenyuan's perennial guard, and the master is like a cloud of Yaocheng.

And there is only one city guard in Lanjiang City, which just shows that this place is quite peaceful.

After watching the city guard finish handling the dispute, Li Qingyun and the three of them continued to walk inside, and after looking at the street, they were ready to see if there was a judgment to determine the case.

It's a pity that when the three of them walked to the city lord's mansion, although the public hall was open, there were no people watching.

Then, after another day of wandering here, they returned to the inn.

......

In the study room of the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord of Lanjiang City, Wang Zang, was bowing his head and writing something, and in the room, there was still a soldier in armor.

"Do you see clearly? Are you sure it's the major general?" asked Wang Zang as he wrote, without raising his head.

"Back to the city lord, it's him, exactly the same as in the portrait. The soldier nodded, and said with considerable confidence.

"That's good. ”

Wang Zang stopped his pen, put his hand to his mouth, blew, and a snow-white falcon flew in from the window.

Wang Zang blew dry the ink on the paper, then folded the letter and stuffed it into a small box on the falcon's back.

"Go ahead, contact the Star Change Pavilion and ask them, I have a big deal here, and they can do it. ”

After the falcon flew away, Wang Zang sat on the chair, picked up the official document on the side, and read it.

However, the soldier did not turn around and leave, hesitated for a moment, and still asked: "City Lord, that's the young general, will there be any chaos if we do this?"

It's not that he is cowardly, the young general of the Yaocheng General's Mansion, the Star Change Pavilion may not dare to make a move, and even if he does, if the General's Mansion finds out about them, not only them, but the entire Wang family will be uprooted.

"What's the matter? You won't even listen to me?"

Wang Zang finally raised his head and glanced at the soldier, with an indescribable coldness in his eyes.

"The subordinates don't dare!" the soldier bent down and said in a trembling voice, "However, the head of the family has explained before that we are not allowed to interfere in all matters related to the young general, and he has his own arrangements." ”

Although the Wang family was already a big family when the feudal country was still in existence, they still couldn't afford to provoke the Yaocheng General's Mansion.

Li Zhenyuan's words can make the Wang family irreversible, and now to provoke the major general of the Yaocheng General's Mansion, what is the difference between that and rushing with a coffin on his back?

"Are you using the head of the house to press me?"

Hearing the soldier mention the head of the family, Wang Zang's face became even more ugly.

"Please forgive me!"

The soldier fell to his knees with a puff, and his back was instantly wet with cold sweat.

Wang Zang sighed, stepped forward to help the soldier up, and said very gently: "I don't mean to blame you, nor do I want to do anything to the young general, I just want to make a deal with the Star Change Pavilion." ”

He really has no intention of attacking Li Qingyun now, everyone has no grievances in the past, and no one wants to offend the Yaocheng General's Mansion for no reason, not to mention, he is still an official of Yaocheng.

The soldier winced and glanced at Wang Zang, but did not speak.

"Don't worry, I'm talking about something else with the Star Change Pavilion, and it has nothing to do with the young general," Wang Zang patted away the dust that didn't exist on the soldier's knees, "You go quickly." ”

The soldier nodded, bent down, and retreated.

......

After leaving Lanjiang City, Li Qingyun and the three of them did not rush to the next city, but wandered around the nearby villages.

It's naturally not enough to just look at Lanjiang City, after all, there are some places that can be faked, but the scope of Lanjiang City is not small, there are so many people, and many places outside the city can more truly reflect the current situation of Lanjiang City.

Although there are not many villages outside the city, there are many, and after walking for a long time, Li Qingyun took Xu Jiayin and Yu into a small village.

There are still more than a dozen families here, looking at the houses or something, as if they had just been built, and now it is noon, and the smoke rises from every house.

I found a family casually, and after a brief explanation of the intention, the family received them very warmly.

It is not for nothing that people like Li Qingyun who are wearing silk and satin come here to stay overnight, and these people are not too surprised to see them.

"We don't know whether Childe is used to eating or not, but the family is used to coarse tea and light rice, so please don't mind. The man looked at Li Qingyun with a simple smile.

"You're gracious, and thank you for your hospitality. ”

With the experience of practicing the heart in three lifetimes, Li Qingyun still has a good impression of such a person.
