In November of the 11th year of Shaoxing, Song and Jin Yu reached the "Shaoxing Peace Agreement" in writing, and the two countries were bounded by Qinling-Huaihe-Dasanguan. The Song ceded most of the Tangzhou, Dengzhou, Shangzhou, and Qinzhou that had been recovered by Yue Fei in the past, and paid an annual tribute of 250,000 taels of silver and 250,000 horses of silk to Jin.

Emperor Zhao, who was bent on peace in the southeast, used Yue Dashuai's head as a bargaining chip in exchange for a truce between the two countries from the Jin State. Under the words of Prime Minister Qin Hui, the Lin'an Imperial Court began the "great national policy" of "covering your eyes and ears" to support the Song Dynasty!

Not to mention whether the major national events are correct or not, it is only said that the common people have happily ushered in a rare time of peace. Perhaps it was because there were too many bleeding and injuries, and the people were suffering from forgetfulness, and the quarrels that often stood at the corner of the street to denounce the grievances of Yue Dashuai became less and less, and the footsteps of begging for a day became heavier and heavier.

A middle county with 2,000 households under its jurisdiction in Youchuan County, West Road, Lizhou, has shrunk sharply to more than 500 households after several conquests by the Jin State, but the number of officials sitting in the county government is still the same as before.

The county seat of Youchuan is divided into two cities, east and west, and the east city is mostly hospitalized by some landlords and gentry. However, Xicheng is a place where some "Lifu" and "mud-legged men" who have lost their land beg for a living. The two cities are bounded by the sweet water well to the west of the county yamen, but in the past, they were bounded by the famous "Zhangjia Restaurant" in Yuchuan County. It's just that in the autumn of this year, he was burned by the golden soldiers who beat the grass valley!

At the same time, there were also Yuchuan County Ya, the County School Official Garden and the Yuchuan Library. As for the large number of houses at the gate of the southern city, they were skipped, and the officials and masters said that those shack-like houses are not worth a few copper coins, so let's erase them! Looking at the southern city, it is also brighter.

As for the north city gate, which made the official so frightened that he peed his pants, it has been blocked by earth and rocks! No traffic. All business travelers are detoured through the east and west gates. Of course, if you don't dislike Lu Yuan, you can also go to the south gate to enter the city, and the officials and men of the county government are still very humane.

From the sweet water well, after visiting the "Dongcheng Market" and "Xicheng Grass Market" back to the notice wall at the Yamen, it took only an hour, and this thing walked all over Yuchuan Castle in less than three miles.

Don't underestimate the small size of Yuchuan Castle, and no one can stay here! After the first street cleaning drum sounded before sunset, those people from other cities who came to the city to buy cloth and vegetables, and to run errands and wander around had to pack their belongings and prepare to leave the city if they did not find an inn to stay.

When the three-way drum is beaten, and the sunset, those officials and city patrol soldiers will carry shackles, shackles, iron knives and spears, and go to the streets to patrol with a limp! If at this time, a familiar shopkeeper sees it, and he will ask, the old man's anger has not disappeared?

The lame soldier would point to the north gate, look at the sky, and shake his head! sighed, quickened the pace, and tried to catch a "prodigal" who left the city gate late and fined two small dollars, and scalded the old wine after the duty, comforting his wounded heart.

Yuchuan Castle is high in the east and low in the west, and after every heavy rain, the rain will flow down the stone road of the eastern city to the west! After waiting for Liujia Hutong to the west of Tianshuijing, the stone road has come to an end. And the rain poured out like a galloping horse that had been freed from its stiffness.

The South City Gate will be relatively better here, and in the autumn, the official lord levied more than 100 Ding Servants, and renovated the vicinity of the South City Gate! Those potholed loess roads were filled with adobe bricks that had been demolished from the demolition of houses! Two more drainage ditches were dug deep on both sides of the tamped pavement.

The rainwater will flow down the drainage ditch, through the drainage hole specially left at the base of the city wall, and out of the southern city!

The most bitter thing is the dozens of families living in the North City Gate Fang, although the rainwater in the east city will not flow over, but the rainwater inside and outside their houses cannot be drained out! I didn't dare to complain about the official who blocked the city gate, so I had to bring one person from each household to bring my own dry food tools, and dug a big pit in the locust forest near Xicheng to drain water.

Xicheng, a place where mud pits turn everywhere when it rains, used to have drainage ditches to drain water, but the yamen moved all the people from the north and south of the city who were plagued by the war in the autumn to Xicheng District. As a result, the small Xichengfang lives in more than half of the population of Yuchuan City!

Living together in a chaotic manner, in addition to being lively, the living environment has become chaotic. But in Yuchuan, which is about to suffer from the baptism of war every three or five times, there will be chaos when there is chaos. It's a blessing to be alive! It's a big deal if you don't go out on a rainy day!

The mentality of being at peace with the situation is the crystallization of the wisdom handed down by the ancestors. Especially the fart people who survived a war disaster and a fire! Otherwise, just looking at the houses that collapsed in the fire would have been like thunder! Not to mention the fact that in the face of the corpses of loved ones...

Tomorrow the sun will rise in the east, and the days will have to be thought about. At the beginning, the officials and elders pointed at the place, but they did not expect the ravages of the rain.

The house is built at will, mud and stakes! The fire smokes for a few days, pick an auspicious day and burn a few knives of yellow paper, and you can live in a new house! Later, when the copper plate in his pocket became rich, he bought some blue bricks and stone tiles and put them outside the adobe wall. Our house is grand enough to be a scene. As for the winding street alleys, alas! Can you just leave? What's hypocritical? We're not the fat guys in Dongcheng!

At present, there is a house that can shelter from the wind and rain, and it is already on the top, where is the pick. If you have that kung fu, you can run out early to earn some copper plates and come back, and pull a few feet of coarse cloth to make a cotton coat! Seeing that winter is coming, there is not much time left for thieves. The babies of all sizes are still wearing single clothes and snorting all over the yard! Although it's a little silly, it's also pro!

The work of the county government must not go, those dog officials are greedy, and they can be fined half of the ten copper coins! It can't be theorized yet, otherwise a few whips are light, and a serious chain will betray your intention to make trouble and disturb the tolerance. If you are caught and squacked in prison for a few days, you will lose a lot of money.

You can go to Dongcheng, and those old men who are not employees are also willing to give money. But there was no disaster in Dongcheng this autumn, and there was not so much work to recruit people. I had to go out of the south gate to Shimen Town with a flat shoulder and hemp rope, and I heard that there was a big repair of the military village and hired people everywhere.

Shimen Town is located between Youchuan County and Shiquan Military Prefecture, and was formerly under the jurisdiction of Youchuan County. In this autumn, Zhao Zhizhou was hit by a military disaster, so Zhao Zhizhou sent a group of soldiers and horses to be stationed under the slogan of "coordinated garrison, drive bandits and calm the people".

The fold was handed to the pacification envoy Zhang in the Chengdu Mansion. Before three days passed, Shimen Town was assigned to Chengdu Prefecture! If it weren't for the tatters of Youchuan County that were burned by the fire, they would have returned to Chengdu Mansion by the way.

Who made the Chengdu Mansion Yamen soldiers strong and strong, with plenty of money and food. It is much stronger than the Xingzhou Yamen, which is often plagued by soldiers.

Shimen Town is the land route for caravans to go west to Tubo and go south to Chengdu! At this time, it was the time when a large number of caravans returned to Chengdu, watching those merchants make a lot of money, and also brought a large number of livestock, cattle and horses!

The commander of the Shiquan Army, Lord Liu, is red-eyed! The embezzlement of the silver issued by the state has not had time to make up for it, and last month his own sons and daughters only paid half of it, and seeing that the day of this month's salary is coming again, he is not in a hurry to fill the hole.

Set up a card to collect taxes for thousands of years!

The small town of Shimen became the "Shimen Military Fortress". The people in the town can run away, and the rest of the poor light is not afraid of the disasters of these soldiers!

Liu Dutou, the leader of the team, scrupulously abides by his duties and personally sits in the fortress. Count the taxes and bonuses sent by the team leaders every day! When the interest came, he picked up the big gun in front of the table and put it on a few styles, listened to the cheers of his subordinates, bowed his head slightly, and panted and said, "We were also Marshal Yue's soldiers!" ”

Linmen Mountain, Linmen Mountain Township, is a land of sweet mountain dates. A day's walk south will take you to Shimen Town. After resting for the night at Linmen Mountain, the large caravans that were "complete with paperwork and loud banners" would set off early before the second day and hurried to reach the Shimen Military Fortress before sunset.

And those small caravans with little strength will go north in groups, through Yongcun Village in Yuchuan County to Shishui River! After crossing the river, we arrived at Anxian County in Shiquan Military Prefecture, where we returned to the old route. Although I took an extra day of detour, I could still have a lot of copper coins left in my pocket.

Otherwise, the large and small tax cards along the way, the layers of taxation and their own small business are not enough. Small traders and hawkers have their own set of ways to deal with it!

In modern times, this kind of behavior is a serious incident of tax evasion, but in that era when "rule by man" was greater than "rule by law", and everything depended on bureaucrats to govern the localities.

This is also the "wisdom" that those small caravans who are rushing to the long distance come up with in order to reduce the cost or even the risk of losing money! This "wisdom of the small people" also promoted the development of private commerce during the Southern Song Dynasty, which was extremely inconvenient. It's a fig leaf!

The most important thing is to leave a family, run to a foreign land, go all the way over the mountains, endure hunger and fatigue, and face the extortion of bandits and robbers from time to time! The shoes are worn out a few pairs, and if you don't avoid the tax collector who picks up the skin, it's not enough to buy a piece of candy for the baby to eat, so why bother!

Walking along the southwest direction of Youchuan County for half a day, you will see two mountains, one large and one small, which are called immortal mountains by the locals, and these two mountains are very popular with the people of Zhangcun at the foot of the mountain. It's not because there was a story of a "flying immortal" in this mountain, but because of the dense vegetation on this mountain! It is responsible for the needs of the surrounding villages to chop firewood for cooking and heating the fire, so it is also called the Big and Small Firewood Mountain.

This Chai Mountain is also the Fushan of the people who live in Yuchuan County, and when they see that there is no firewood to cook at home for two or three days, they take an ax and hemp rope and call three or five neighbors to go to Chai Mountain to chop firewood. There are those who have fast legs and feet, and they can go back and forth three times a day. The firewood is enough for the family, and the rest can be exchanged for a few copper coins in the Xicheng grass market! If you are not too tired, you can pick and sell in the East Market, where can you earn two more copper coins.

Whether it's an ancient city or a modern city, there is always a place called the "rich area"! There are only two kinds of people who can live here. One is the congenital "reincarnation", and the other is the "acquired effort".

Perhaps it is because of the excessive torture of the demon of money, modern people have also mutated a kind of "camouflage"! They drive luxury cars and wear big brands, carry brand-name bags in and out of major high-end restaurants, and when they lack credit, they find out that the bags are fake, the cars are rented, and the credit cards are overdrawn! After checking that there was no tile in his name, he still owed hundreds of thousands of dollars to the bank.

Just like this, he still shouted, "I don't care about your appearance, I'm only obsessed with the charm of your one-handed Ferrari!" "The moment I finished the love period, I suddenly found that he would also "disguise"!
