[Big chapter update switches the main line, ask for red tickets, ask for support, thank you book friends]

"The predicate of the Mandate of Heaven is sexuality, the predicate of recklessness is the Tao, and the predicate of cultivation is teaching. Those who are in the Tao do not need to leave the Tao, but they can leave the Tao. Therefore, a gentleman is cautious of what he does not see, and fearful of what he does not hear. Don't see it, don't show it, so the gentleman is cautious. Joy, anger, sorrow and joy have not yet occurred, which is said to be in the middle; The hair is in the middle of the section, which is called the sum; Those who are in the middle are also the great capital of the world; Those who are harmonious are also the way of the world. To neutralize, heaven is in the ascendancy, and all things are nurtured. ”

The sun had just risen, and he got up early to punch in the courtyard and wash up again, Wang Xingping picked up breakfast and ate while reading in the study.

Seeing that the young master has been immersed in the book since he went home, Xiao Liu also has a little relief in his heart, although he is not much older than the young master, his father and master were killed by barbarians, and they are still grieving, but when they see the family cheering up, there is a hope in their hearts.

"Young Master, what are you reading?"

""The Mean" is all about the truth of being a man."

Wang Xing was at home at home, and it had just passed the New Year, and he had nothing else to do in the past few days except for his mother's morning and dusk provinces, so he spent all his extra time reviewing books.

has long passed the age of enlightenment, "Analects" is at least familiar with memorization, "The Mean" and "Spring and Autumn" have also read some, originally learned in social studies, but in order to adapt to this identity and era as soon as possible, but also to find some fun for the boring life, so I can only read like this.

Entertainment is forbidden during the period of filial piety, and if you want to go out, you have to have a name that you can't say, otherwise although the clan and the neighborhood will not treat themselves as an orphan, it is inevitable to poke the backbone behind them.

But in addition to reading and practicing his fists and feet in the backyard of his home, Wang Xingping really has no other leisure, and all kinds of gadgets made of dog bones that can be bought on the market are disdainful even by the original owner of this body.

According to the old system, filial piety is not allowed to stay at home during the period of filial piety, and he has to build another shed next to his parents' grave to live alone, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty, many rules have long been broken, and no one will say anything if Wang Xingping is only at home 'honest duty'.

However, there is also an advantage, don't worry about someone coming to the door to discuss relatives, with the Wang family's family, although it is not the top in Guiyang Mansion, it is also solid, and it is not a problem to find a lady who is the right official eunuch to be the main room, but during the period of filial piety, the women who often came to the door before will not come to the door rashly.

According to common sense, if this happens, there will be another year or two, although it is not a late marriage, but Wang Xingping's age is also the current season in the marriage market in Guiyang City, and this rare purity will be cherished by the future head of the family.

Not only to sort out the memories of the past, but also to sort out the current situation, as a traveler, if you can't even take advantage of the only advantages, it really can't be said to be a good crossing, not to mention that you have to determine whether there is a deviation between this historical trajectory and the parallel world, there were too many accidents this time.

The memory of the previous master, coupled with the experience of being away a few days ago, can basically determine that it is now the forty-fifth year of Wanli at the end of the Ming Dynasty, that is, in 1617 AD.

Although the exact time is impossible to verify, the famous Wanli Three Great Expeditions must have been in the past tense, at least from the soldiers of Xifeng and Yang Bao'er's clansmen have heard how many times, and the battle of Yang Yinglong, the last of the three major expeditions, has also passed more than ten years.

As for the emperor, I'm afraid that he doesn't have the experience of crossing over, and he will be like the ordinary people around him, and he won't feel that he can live a few more years.

Mingshenzong was born in Jiajing forty-one years, according to the calculation of the day, now he is also fifty-five years old, this age is nothing after modern times, but it is subtle to put it on the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, you must know that since Zhu Yuanzhang, the Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty has lived to be sixty years old and counted on one hand.

After Wanli, the Ming Dynasty was not as good as the next generation, and it gradually showed the atmosphere of decline, but Wang Xingping knew that Mei Kathy's point of view has always attributed the responsibility for various problems in the late Ming Dynasty to Shenzong, whether it is the Great Song Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, it seems that Emperor Shenzong is a controversial figure.

"Okay, what's the matter?"

Reading on weekdays, Wang Xiaoliu never dared to disturb Wang Xingping, and today he interrupted rashly, not because he understood the content of the book.

Wang Xiaoliu replied: "Tomorrow is the birthday of the master of the Wang family, grandma has explained." ”

Wang Xingping patted his head, how could he forget about this, February 29 is Wang Mingde's birthday, and his father goes to pay tribute every year, but this year he forgot about it because of a panic.

But the day before yesterday, Xiao remembered that Wang Xingping remembered to go to the palace a day in advance to visit, Wang Xingping is now in the period of filial piety, such a thing as a birthday banquet, and he is an elder in the clan, so he still has to avoid suspicion.

But Wang Mingde contributed a lot in the previous matter, and he couldn't say it if he didn't go to visit, so he discussed going a day in advance, and he was supposed to make preparations at home, and Wang Mingde would not go out. Wang Xingping is also a junior in the clan, no better than outsiders, so he doesn't need to send a post, just go to pass it on.

Out of the hot filial piety, there is no need to wear decay clothes or exaggerated achievements, it doesn't hurt to be at home, so wearing it to go out, but it is ostentatious.

Changed into a plain linen robe with a round neck, with a thick linen waist rope and a black mesh scarf, plus Juanxiu's face and figure, it also has a unique bearing.

was about to go out, but he heard a delicate voice calling from behind: "Where is my brother going?" ”

When I look back, I am a little adoptive girl.

Yin Shi family, it is common to have one or two maidservants raised since childhood, and they have good temperaments, and most of them can become a room girl before the main family gets married, that is, the young master's room.

Wang Xingping's sister Wang Ruoxi married early, and the adoptive mother of the family came to see her as a younger sister, the father doted on her son, the mother Xiao was generous, and she was also well-behaved and sensible.

Qu'er is only three years younger than Wang Xingping, which is the age of curiosity, and he has to follow when he sees Wang Xingping go out.

Wang Xingping walked back to Qu'er and pinched her little face affectionately, with intimacy in his movements.

"Uncle's birthday tomorrow, my brother is going to buy some gifts today, Qu'er is good at home to serve Grandma, I will come back in the afternoon to bring you delicious food."

Originally, Wang Xingping's temperament was still a child's family, although he was smart, he often provoked this adoptive mother, but after coming back this time, he became really in love, Qu'er's little face was flushed, he pursed his lips and smiled, "um", and went to the back happily.

Wang Xiaoliu went out early, and went to the Li family carriage and horse shop at the entrance of Dafufang Lane behind the street to rent a carriage, although Wang Mingde's house is next door, but if you want to buy, you still have to go to the south of the city.

All the way out of Wangjia Lane, a few neighbors came to see each other, Wang Xingping was the same, compared to the free and easy temperament when he was outside, he was much more restrained, but he was also valued by everyone.

"The young master of the Wang family has been a different person since he came back this time, and he was so polite when he saw him the day before yesterday, I heard that he studied hard at home all day long."

"That's nature, now the west house is relying on this single seedling to support the portal, how can it be done if you don't work hard."

"Who said that an only son will definitely be able to set up a household, the old man He in Chonglifang on West Street is not a son yet, and everything is not in vain for eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling. What kind of extravagance is the He family, but how old is Master He, just this one, can he not follow him? ”

"Speaking of the young master of the Wang family, what are you talking about, what kind of economy are you talking about, it's really a pot that can't be opened."

He Degu is the businessman who helped the Bai Ma Tong Ah Ji brothers sell dirty last time, because of the matter of Bai Ma Tong, the He family ate a lot of hanging, and it was very perfunctory to break some money, this matter was not the Wang family to bite and hold on, He Jiadang would not be beaten by the good students in the official life, it was not a good topic to mention Master He here in the young master of the Wang family.

One of the people who spoke diverted the topic, "Since the brother of the Wang family came back, he has been respectful and respectful when he sees everyone, and he is much more stable, the same surname, if that kid in my family can have half the bearing of someone, I will have to wake up laughing in my dreams." ”

"You are like, I think this next subject is most likely to be like his father, and it is not good to say that he is not a jinshi like Dongfangtou, so it is not certain."

"Eighteen, you are talking nonsense, the township test of Wuwu Branch will be next year, and it has not yet come out of Daxiang, no matter how hard you work, you can't even pass the exam, how to lift people."

"If you can't win the next subject, you will definitely win the next subject, don't believe us, bet."

"Wang Suzi, you should be in the middle of a show before you take a look."

A few neighbors and clansmen who were towards Wang Xingping grabbed Wang Eighteen's sour words and didn't let go, but Wang Xingping's master and servant walked away.

…………

After the big cross all the way to the south, and then through the three archways, here to the right across the Fu River is the Xingui County Ya and garrison barracks, and then to the south of a square, the east is the Fuzhong Changping and the School Administration, the west is the river embankment, the south is the Qianming Temple and the three temples.

Along the riverside, there are a lot of shops, which are not lively, and there are also stalls. Ordinary vegetables, chickens, ducks and other things are transported to the Nanming River by ship in the morning, unloaded and landed in the south towards the Beijing Gate, and transported here for sale. Over time, the scale was formed, and it became today's three archway cities, and most of the fresh food in the city was traded here.

Fresh fish are sold on the embankment through the South Water Gate, across the Liudong Bridge behind the Water Gate.

From this empty field to the east to the end, is the south of the back street of the city warehouse, is facing the small empty field around the Beijing Gate, there are all kinds of shops selling good goods in Guiyang City, it is reported that the Beijing Gate, at a glance you can see the Jiaxiu Building standing on the top of the Wanao alum stone in the Nanming River, I heard that there are two famous dog meat restaurants in the gate box outside the south gate against the city wall, the taste is really a must in Guiyang.

It's just that I was going to come to buy gifts, but I was attracted by this rushing market.

In the past few days since I came back from outside, although I have also come out to socialize with the government and the clan, this market in the south is still the first time to come back, and I don't feel happy, even the smell of horse manure wafting from the big manger on the edge of Weipo across the Fu River is also very kind.

Chickens, ducks, vegetables and eggs are okay, originally the farmers were ordinary, stocked in the paddy fields, and they could also help catch insects.

It is unthinkable that there are indeed a lot of fish, baskets and barrels are placed on the river to sell, and some of them are also half-submerged in the river water, such a large amount, if it is said to be wild fishing, Wang Xingping will definitely not believe it.

Moreover, the fish is no better than chickens and ducks, and if you can't sell them today, there will be tomorrow, and now there are no light containers suitable for storing water, and the barrels are heavy, even if they are loaded back on the ship, it will be troublesome, not to mention that if they can be basically sold out, why bother to sell so many fish.

Curious, he asked Wang Xiaoliu beside him, "So many fish, are they all caught from the river?" I'm afraid there are no more than seven or eight hundred of them on the market. ”

Wang Xiaoliu didn't care, he only laughed in his heart that Wang Xingping came out less, and finally had something clearer than the young master to show off, and said with a smile: "This place is just for sale on weekdays, the young master wants to eat fish, you don't have to buy it in person, I will say to Na Shi Yutou, and it will be delivered to the house early tomorrow morning." ”

"Fresh food delivery?"

Wang Xiaoliu said 'Huh', and said in his heart that this little master used to be a director outside, but now it seems that he is still a young master who does not eat fireworks in the world. Just listen to my own Lao Tzu said that the fish shop distributes fresh fish to the rich families in the city every day, which has been many years, at least in the Jiajing Dynasty, the Wang family's fish is not sent like this, and the fish money is still settled by season.

Therefore, Wang Xiaoliu didn't talk about distribution, but only answered Wang Xingping's question at the beginning, "They are all raised in cages, and how long will it take to catch them by netting alone." ”

"Cage fish?" Wang Xingping was another surprise.

Wang Xiaoliu misunderstood Wang Xingping's question, and looked like he should have been, "Yes, put the fish fry in a cage and sink into the river, and feed some manure and urine every day." ”

Wang Xingping retched for a while when he heard this, and then heard the driver in front of him laugh.

Wang Xiaoliu reprimanded: "Are you laughing? ”

The coachman said: "Little Lao'er just listened to the little brother, you said something wrong, I am afraid that I will mistake your young master and be laughed at by others." ”

Wang Xingping was curious, "What are you laughing at me?" ”

The coachman turned around and owed, "It's true that the fish was raised in a cage, but whoever takes feces and urine is fed with good egg yolks." ”

Wang Xingping laughed at himself when he heard it, thinking about it, the cost determines the price, if you really want such a good fish, how can it be sold like this, and sure enough, rumors about food hygiene are the easiest to spread.

It's just that as soon as the coachman's chatterbox opened, he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

"Speaking of which, this fry is not locally produced, but mostly picked by the porters over there in Huguang."

"But the earliest business was originally done by Jiangxi people, the Jiangxi Hall opposite the west entrance of Dafufang, where Master Liu relied on this fish fry to start his home, and people called him Liu Laji before the development."

"The caisson also has to be particular, if it is tall, it is not good, it is not good, it is not good, it has to be just out of the water."

…………

The group said as they walked, Wang Xingping was also dazzled, and the degree of development of the commodity economy in the Ming Dynasty made him refreshed.

Not only vegetables, poultry and eggs, but also delicatessen and wine, cloth and dye, gold and silver ornaments, medicinal herbs and mountain goods, and all kinds of toys made of bones that I don't know.

Looking at the freshness, he turned to the east when he moved slightly, and was looking at the south gate tower, but he heard a shout next to him.

"The owner."

[Note: In the middle of Jiajing, there has been a cage fish farming, integrated chicken and duck farming, in the Ming Dynasty missionary mainland travels, in the south of the Yangtze River has been described, and has formed an industrial chain, fish fry breeding, cage sinking, distribution logistics have formed an industrial chain. 】
