Chapter 179: Heroes Save Beauty?!
Li Hu came back soon and reported to Zijian, "Chief, those guys will be released after a lesson." ”
"Oh! Well, don't worry about that. ”
Zijian naturally understood what Li Hu said, Li Hu went to the little old man to certify, if those people did evil things, they couldn't hide it, since they let people go, that is, those people are not bad enough to have no humanity, and there is still a chance to correct their lives. If you don't feel at ease as a man, who is to blame for finding your own death and finally dying!
Anyway, the eight "bullies" usually live on income protection money, but fortunately, this time the little old man didn't have a crooked mouth, saying that they did bad things or something, in that case, the volunteers didn't have to collect evidence, if the little old man said that they had done something to kill, he would cut a few people and throw them into the river to feed the fish, what a big deal.
After this lesson, eight people changed their minds and became new people, after seeing these "murderers" of the volunteers, what is it, this is the wicked have their own evil grinding, and the bully can only obediently be a little sheep when he encounters a thief.
Those guys just don't have long eyes, if they just collect protection money and don't rob the sheep, this has nothing to do with the volunteers, but they are so good that they can't die, and they actually snatched the goats, which is what Li Hu spent money on, this is to throw off the face of the volunteers, so what happened later.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Zijian took out the map and came out to watch, Li Hu came over and saw that the map was densely packed with various information gathered together, and he was confused, like reading a book from the sky.
Well, let the Ming turtle see the detailed map of Guangdong in later generations, and he doesn't know what it means.
Zijian said angrily, "Take it, find out the Guangzhou Mansion for me." ”
Li Hu watched the map as if he had taken the baby, pretending to read the map very seriously, while Zijian was watching the joke next to him, twisting his head to the side, and holding back his laughter, Li Hu is a guy, obviously he can't understand it, he has to pretend, isn't it funny!
Li Hu, who had been pretending for a long time, returned the map to the chief, and asked him to find the corresponding information on the map.
Zijian took back the map, but he didn't mean to laugh at him, the map thing, I don't know the meaning of the symbols, it's inexplicable, and Zijian doesn't plan to explain the use of the map to Li Hu, to teach a person who can't read big characters to understand the map, the workload is too much, with Zijian's lazy character, he has no heart to teach.
Nothing happened one night, the next day.
Zijian and his entourage crossed the river safely and continued to Guangzhou Prefecture.
Zijian was very interested in the county seat of Guangzhou at this time, because at this time, the Guangzhou Prefecture was an out-and-out international metropolis, and the population of the county seat and its suburbs was 1.8 million to 2 million.
Compared with Europe during this period, it was still in the stage of obscene development, and there was no comparison with China. However, although Europe is backward, it is full of the world's territory, and China is about to alternate dynasties, and wait for a few hundred years, Europe will complete the global enclosure, and open a strong ship and cannon to bombard the gate of China, and China will wake up, and then it is a process of Chinese people catching up, to the era of Zijianlai, China has almost pursued the world's advanced level, but in a certain science and technology is still backward and the world's first. The Chinese people have an inexplicable pursuit of the first mentality, and all the Chinese people who cannot reach the first place in the world are considered backward.
Having said this, I just want to see the city that has not been destroyed by the war, the commercial atmosphere of Guangzhou Mansion is very strong, and it is more commercial than the Jiangnan area, but because the imperial court does not collect commercial taxes, no matter how commercial Guangzhou Mansion is, the imperial court will not receive a single copper coin. This is a strange thing that was made by civilian officials.
The commercial tax entered the pockets of civil officials in all kinds of strange names, such as the eighth grandson of an official's family, the merchant must have given a large gift as filial piety money, if he did not bribe the official, the businessman's business thought that he could continue. As for how big the congratulatory gift is? This can't be said, anyway, the poor can't earn it for a lifetime.
After three days of travel, I finally arrived at the suburbs of Guangzhou City, which was also surprised by Zijian David, the rows of houses in the suburbs, the streets were well repaired and straight, most of them were neatly paved, some were very wide, and there were archways, but not much, and trees were planted along one side or the other side of the house for shade.
Zijian guessed that the reason for the lack of displaced people was that the business of Guangzhou Prefecture was developed, and the handicraft industry absorbed a large number of people, so the land annexation here was very serious, but the people could also work to get paid, and there were few displaced people.
Of course, this is Zijian's speculation, and it is unknown whether it is true or not. Commerce and industry are linked, Zijian is engaged in initial industrialization in the territory, and in Zhangjia Village, a small place, in just two months, it has absorbed nearly 100,000 people, so you know that industrialization is powerful. If it weren't for the fact that meat and fats could not keep up with the development, it would have been able to accommodate even more people.
Zhangjiacun is currently limited by resources, so it is up to Zijian to solve the problem. As long as he borrows a boat and catches whales from the ocean, the bottleneck of Zhangjia Village's development can be solved.
The appearance of Zijian and his party did not cause a little wave, the people of Guangzhou Mansion are well-informed, and often encounter strange white Europeans, Persians in the Middle East, black people in Africa, Zijian and his party are still Chinese faces, just cut their hair short, and the people around them said that this is normal.
Well, the receptivity of the people in the big city is bullishness, and the demeanor of the big city can be seen at a glance, which is also the temperament cultivated by a big city, which is difficult to form in a small place like Maoming County.
However, with Zijian's critical eye, it was not without finding shortcomings, he found that the city was commercially developed, but for the lack of military preparations, or the peace here was too long, from the officials to the common people, the understanding of the war was already very distant.
Although the news of the defeat of the Ming Dynasty continued to come from the north, it seemed that there was no impact at all, even if the Ming Beiping was broken and the emperor was killed, as if it did not happen, at least Zijian could not see the panicked expressions of the people, as if the defeat of the Ming Dynasty had nothing to do with them.
If there is no Zijian appearing, the Qing Dynasty will ride south, and it will be in ruins after a few years, and no matter how developed the business is, there will be no use for the eggs.
The flow of people in front is getting denser and denser, and the volunteers have already thrown the head of the spear into the water, anyway, it's not worth much, if two hundred people enter the city with this kind of controlled weapon, there will be trouble, although Zijian is not afraid of things, it's better to keep a low profile, the spear has no head, there is only a section of bamboo pole left, those weapons will have trouble entering the city, but if you take the bamboo pole into the city, no one will look for trouble.
Although more than 200 people alone hold bamboo poles with a lot of lethality, if there are no broken regulations, who will be full of food and find something to do!
Zijian sat on the "BMW", with a large number of people around, and in the eyes of the people next to him, it was the appearance of the country bun who had just entered the city, but when he saw the two hundred people behind him, he didn't dare to laugh at him.
This kind of person looks either rich or expensive, and jokes that people have broken their legs, so they think they are unlucky! Laughing at others is good if you have the strength to laugh at others.
"Yo-he!"
Zijian screamed and saw a scene that made him unhappy.
Not far from the side of the road, there is a small stall selling jewelry, the stall owner is a fifteen or sixteen little girl, in the words of the Ming Dynasty, she is twenty-eight years old, she looks good! It can't be said that the country is overwhelmed, but it is also a small jasper.
Eight dwarf winter melons in front of the little girl's stall, uh, it's not that Zijian looks down on people, Zijian visually inspected those guys on the horse, just one meter and a half, wearing clogs on his feet, and a samurai sword in his waist, okay, you know who they are, it's a few Japanese people.
Maybe I saw that the little girl was easy to bully alone, or I fell in love with others, and teased the little girl in the stall, and the people around me surrounded a few circles, but no one stepped forward to stop it, maybe they were also watching the excitement! Who knows?
"Hehehehehe...... is it that when I first arrived in Guangzhou City, I was going to perform a story of heroes saving beauty!"
Zijian muttered to himself. Hearing the neighing of horses behind him, the people who were watching the excitement outside hurriedly got out of the way, and if they were injured in the way, they dared to ask Zijian for silver.
Several guys were looking at the little girl playfully, but suddenly there was no sound behind them, and when they looked back strangely, they almost screamed.
It turned out that he was surrounded by people in the back, holding a long bamboo pole in his hand, although there was no gun head, it seemed that there was no lethal appearance, for the volunteers, there were spear heads and no gun heads, no longer care, during the training of more than 3,000 spikes a day, just for fun, if you want, the volunteers can use a bamboo pole to stab a few guys through.
The two hundred volunteers calmly looked at a few people, waiting for Zijian's order, although they did not kill the exposed, but it was this calm scene that was full of a strange atmosphere.
