Nanyang.

Li Tingran, who temporarily took over the position of the prefect of Nanyang as a canon, couldn't help but slap his thigh hard after seeing the order sent by Zhu Cijiong!

"Smack!"

His face was full of red, the corners of his mouth couldn't stop smiling, and he cheered loudly: "Wonderful! ”

As soon as the words came out, the pain in his leg reached his mind, and before he could retract his split mouth, he turned into a crooked mouth and squinted eyes, gasping coldly.

"I'm a, and I'm beating ...... hard"

Zhang Siyuan just walked in: "Cedar, what are you doing here?" ”

He also had a smile on his face: "Do you have itchy hands?" ”

Zhang Siyuan teased his brother-in-law.

Li Tingran didn't care about the red slap, and happily handed the official document in his hand to Zhang Siyuan to read:

"Brother Zhang, look at it, this is from His Highness, you said that if we implement His Highness's methods, won't we not worry about military expenses?"

Zhang Siyuan took it and looked at it again, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked at it carefully several times before putting the official document back in place:

"Wonderful!"

He clapped his hands and sighed: "With this Hu Fu tax, why worry about big things!" ”

The two hurriedly lay down on the desk and wrote a notice for the subordinate to take and copy.

……

Since Nanyang was exempted from the city gate tax, there are more vendors who go here to do business, and even ordinary people in the surrounding area are willing to go into the city for a stroll when they have nothing to do.

There is a hill in the west of Nanyang City, and the name of this place is Wollongong.

Since the failure of Zhu Yuanzhang in the early Ming Dynasty to compete for the world, Zhang Shicheng's two military advisers have lived in the mountains and forests and have not been in office for the rest of their lives.

These two people are Shi Nai'an and Luo Guanzhong's master and apprentice.

An easy-to-understand Romance of the Three Kingdoms makes the image of Zhuge Liang wise and close to the demon deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

This piece of hill called Wollongong in the west of Nanyang City is even more famous all over the world.

Don't look at Nanyang as a large plain, but not far from the north of the city, there are mountains.

Yes, in this Wollongong, there are more than a dozen hunters, and there is a family surnamed Zhou, and the daughter named Zhou Qiaomai is very symbolic.

The surrounding people often say to Zhou Orion, 'You are really energetic, and when you grow up, you want a good mother-in-law's house!' ’

……

Early winter has arrived, and it is time when the price of fur rises.

This fur is only at its highest in early winter.

Because it takes at least 20 days from the time the game is brought back, the skin is peeled and dried, the leather is tanned, and the garment is ready-to-wear.

In this way, only the early winter fur can catch up with the highest price of fur.

Early this morning, Zhou Orion had breakfast and explained to the four mothers:

"You leave it at home, I will take it to the shopkeeper today after saving this skin for a year.

The day before yesterday, his old man asked someone to explain to me, and he wanted to collect the skin and make winter clothes for the prince. ”

Sixteen-year-old Zhou Qiaomai walked out of the house: "Dad, I want to go too, I haven't entered the city yet, Uncle Wang next door said, I don't need money to go to the city now, you can take me with you!" ”

A pair of sons also ran out, they were a few years younger than Zhou Qiaomai, and the two of them called Dalai and came with them.

Sui Lai, who was only a teenager, heard that he was going to enter the city, and immediately hugged Zhou Orion's leg and shouted:

"Daddy, I'm going too, my brother is going, my sister is going, you can take us into the city to have a look, I heard it's fun!"

Zhou Orion smiled bitterly, and he said to his wife who was washing dishes in the kitchen:

"Mother, the babies are going to go into the city to have a look, so you should go with you......

That is, when you first married me, I took you to the city, and in a blink of an eye, it has been more than 20 years! ”

When the two first got married, the world was still the world of the Ming Dynasty, and there was no chaos in the city, so Zhou Orion took his mother-in-law into the city.

Later, the world was in turmoil, and he never took a woman to the city again......

Don't look at Wollongong, it's within a few miles west of Nanyang City, but the younger generation of the Zhou family really hasn't been there.

There is a city full of Nanyang City, those big men are all fierce and vicious, what they see is taken directly, and when they see a good-looking woman, they are dragged back as a concubine......

Gradually, the girls were all locked up at home.

In the Ming Dynasty, the atmosphere that women could go to the street at will no longer exists.

……

"Dad, you take them into the city, it's okay, it's okay, there was still a war a few days ago!" The hostess He Cuihua was a little worried.

She heard that in Zhaojiagou Village in the west, there was a daughter of a family, wasn't she ruined after entering the city, and then she looked for a short meeting......

"What do women know in addition to long hair?"

Father Zhou chuckled: "This one who took away our Nanyang City is the prince of the Ming Dynasty!"

Those dogs and tartars, they can't harm our people anymore! ”

He pointed to the West: "It's still our Ming official master who is Qingtian, those evil beasts have been driven underground to dig iron ore!" ”

"That's a good feeling!"

He Cuihua reached out and untied the apron around her waist, she was in her forties, and the corners of her eyes were already covered with crow's feet.

Because she is a woman from the Orion family, she can eat meat, yes, she doesn't look very old, and her spirit is also very good.

He Cuihua's face even has a bit of charm.

She walked around in front of the man: "Master, do you think I want to change my clothes?" ”

It is a woman's nature to love beauty, regardless of age and age.

He Cuihua heard that there was no mess in the city, and she immediately couldn't stop her restless desire to go shopping.

"It's done, it's done! My daughter-in-law looks good in whatever she wears! ”

The old hunter praised it, but muttered in his heart: It looks better if you don't wear it!

"Then let's go early and come back early, and we have to cook lunch when we come back!" He Cuihua hurriedly urged.

Zhou Orion smiled: "The prince doesn't collect the city tax, our family, today we picked up ten big money, which is enough to buy ten meat buns, at noon today, our family will go to eat white flour meat buns!" ”

"Good! All right! Daddy, I want to eat meat buns, I want to eat both! The youngest son, Zhou Suilai, clapped his hands and cheered.

Zhou Qiaomai was also overjoyed.

Although the Orion family is a little stronger than ordinary people, they can only eat enough.

This white-flour steamed bun really can't be eaten a few times a year.

Zhou Orion picked up a pick of various animal skins, tied the rest of them, and carried them on the back of his family, and the family walked towards the city gate.

When they arrived at the gate of the city, they found that there were many people surrounding the place where the notice had been posted on the side of the city wall.

Zhou Orion hurriedly put down the pick, let the mother watch, and walked towards the crowd.

When I squeezed into the crowd, I saw a brand-new notice on the city wall in front of me.

"What's this written about?"

Zhou Orion looked at the black and white words on the wall and asked.
