Chapter 64: The New Emperor Ascends the Throne and Returns Magnificently (1)
In the twelfth year of Qirao, there was a seizure of power in Xiangcheng.
Because the reigning emperor favored the eunuchs, the regime fell aside, the people were not able to make a living, and there was constant turmoil/chaos.
The emperor was even more bewitched by the five major families, listened to the matter of immortality, and immersed himself in the road of alchemy and immortal cultivation all day long, regardless of whether the people lived or died.
The five major families fought frequently with the eunuchs.
The prince is too young to be entrusted with a heavy task!
When the civil war in Xiangcheng was about to start, the southern city of Jiangnan, which was far away from here, was developing rapidly.
Nancheng opened up the official road to the Night Death, and also opened up the Liantian Valley, which became a necessary place for business.
It is rumored that the materials are very abundant, the people are open, and it is not a cannibalistic country, and more and more Qirao people or merchants communicate with the country of the night.
The toll paid by people who go to and from two places alone is quite generous!
Naturally, this idea was also promulgated by a woman named Gu Honglian.
In addition to this, there are also discounts for merchants to settle in, as well as discounts for land purchase and construction, which are all very attractive.
It seems that what was once a wild place is no longer a place for "gold mining", but it is also a place for "gold panning".
It's not like an ordinary stockade, it's more like a city, a country.
"Girl, there are ten more merchants who want to rent our shop today." Qianfan came excitedly to report.
Gu Hong is practicing martial arts, and the physical energy in her body has been stimulated a lot.
"Well, you can deal with it." She replied casually.
"Girl, who are you, and why do you have such good attention!" Qianfan is still excited, "It seems that the merchants will be exempted from taxes within half a year, and it seems to be a loss, but I have calculated that the profits in the future will be very large, and our popularity has also been played, so there is no need to worry about no merchants at all." ”
Gu Honglian withdrew his hand, took a deep breath, and then smiled, "If you have a chance in the future, I will introduce someone to you, the two of you are really alike." ”
"Who?"
"Smell the city." She gave her name.
didn't think about it, but Qian Fan's eyes lit up, "Is that the first businessman?" I know! Girl, you know him! How did you know him, can you really introduce him to me? I heard that his means of making money are very good, and his wealth can be worth a city. ”
"Oh? Is it? She said, "Tsk, it seems that he has made a lot of money recently, so I don't have a score!" ”
That's good.
I haven't seen him for so long, and before I left last time, I left him a lot of ideas to make money, and I think he should have made a lot of money, but he can't let him swallow it privately!
Qian Fan didn't know what she was at all, immersed in the excitement of having the opportunity to meet Mingcheng, the other party was the person he admired!
Gu Honglian, who was too lazy to pay attention to him, walked away by herself, and after taking a shower, she was going to go outside for a walk.
Now, their people are "celebrities" in Mingcheng.
Don't talk about her, even if Shuang'er goes out, she also hugs her before and after.
Either call her Sister Shuang'er, or a good sister, and make Shuang'er very proud.
Since Nancheng was opened to the outside, there have also been many women coming in, including the daughters of merchants, as well as pretty/widows/women, proprietresses and the like, there is no shortage of women, but no one can replace Gu Honglian's position in the hearts of these people.
The most difficult period of life to get along, and the people who allowed them to regain their freedom and take off the shackles of slavery, they all felt that it was Gu Honglian.
Since she came, a series of good fortunes have begun to happen.
Naturally, even the people around her are respected.
Mama Yu went out for a walk, and without spending any money, she could bring back a table of good dishes and meat......
I secretly poke and poke in my heart to like Gu Honglian, but I still feel that Gu Honglian should be with the prince.
Therefore, the emotional trends of the two of them are also "concerned" by everyone.
Gu Hong was fifteen years old when he came to the Wild Land, and now he is almost seventeen, and he is already an adult!
No, it should be a stranded girl!
I went out for a walk, I was very satisfied, and when I returned to the house, I heard a major news.
The southern city is going to be locked down.
Because the Chirao Civil War broke out......
She wasn't surprised when she heard it, after all, there was already a precursor to this.
"Well, how's the situation with our storage in the city?"
"Back to the girl, there is a volume of February and March, and many crops are stable and mass-produced."
"Well, if the regulations continue, the price of grain cannot be raised, and all food will be sold by the king. Let them not worry, the war will not spread here, and the people in the southern city will be fine, they will continue to live as they should, but don't go out of the city recently, and don't go to the night dead. ”
"Yes!" And the man answered and went down.
It's not that hard.
This is Nancheng, and the people have the same opinion of the prince and Gu Honglian as their family, and the orders issued to Gu Honglian are also like holy decrees.
By the way, here, maybe they all think that Yuqing is the emperor and she is the empress.
After giving the order, she turned around and saw Yuqing Rang standing behind her.
She stepped forward, if what Xia Sheng said before was right, at this time, he should return to Xiangcheng.
Sure enough, he said, "I'll leave Southside tomorrow." ”
"Oh." She should.
"Nancheng will be handed over to you, and if you have time to help me take care of Yutian, she will not reject your approach."
"Don't worry." She said.
The two didn't have anything to say, and she didn't even ask him where he went.
It's normal, but Yu Qingrang is reluctant, it's too strange a feeling, he doesn't know how to have it.
Reluctance to be a person!
"Don't you have anything to say to this king?"
"Be careful." She admonished, and then gave him a small wooden sword that she carried with her, "This is a little gadget that I like very much, and I have brought it for a long time, so I will give it to you, keep me safe." ”
Yuqing smiled, naturally, the mask was invisible, but she knew it.
Because his voice also had a smile, "It's very special, this king accepted it, and it should be regarded as a promise you gave to this king." ”
"Lord Wang, I'm not very familiar with you, you better not be too casual!"
"Really? Not cooked enough? He muttered to himself.
Gu Honglian ignored him and turned to leave.
Yuqing Rang was still laughing, "It turns out that this is not familiar enough, it seems that we have to step up to become familiar!" ”
Put the wooden sword close to you.
It is unknown what kind of changes the situation will take if Yuqing lets this go, she just needs to manage Nancheng.
And Nancheng, most of the families are those slaves at the beginning, and they will not resist her at all, and they are also trusting, and they are not troublesome at all.
Thirteen years of Qirao.
It is said that there is a secret of immortality in the dragon bone, and the emperor insisted on using the dragon bone to make alchemy regardless of the fall of Qi Rao.
On the grounds that he could not see the devastation of the living beings, the king of the North Courtyard raised troops to force the palace.
King Yan helped and broke the political situation in one fell swoop.
The civil war, which lasted for a year and March, finally stopped, and Chu Rongyuan, the king of the Northern Courtyard, ascended the throne as the new emperor.
The name of the country was changed to "Xin", Qirao was changed to "Qi Xin", and the capital was still Xiangcheng, but it was renamed "Beijing".
