Chapter 106: Yunhua City in the Past and Present
"Get off the horse, get off the horse, remember, horseback riding is not allowed in Yunhua City, and those who violate the rules will be fined at the least, and hehe, think for yourself." Next to the gate of the north gate of Yunhua City, a strong man wearing armor and holding a weapon shouted loudly, but this strong man is a commander in the Yun family's army, named Zhang Yuanfang, a sixth-order martial artist the day after tomorrow, and he is not far from the seventh order the day after tomorrow.
Outside the city gate, everyone who heard the sound dismounted one after another, leading the horse into Yunhua City, not daring to violate the rules at all.
At the beginning, the Yun clan did not have a congenital seat, there were warriors who violated the regulations and galloped in Yunhua City, and even knocked a pedestrian into a serious injury, Yun Jiajun didn't say a word, and went up to shoot the warrior to death with arrows, after which few people dared to ride horses in Yunhua City, not to mention that now the Yun clan has a congenital seat, not to be born, who dares to have such a mind in their hearts.
In fact, the medium and large cities in the territory of the Great Li Empire have similar regulations, but the regulations of Yunhua City are the most severe, even if the Yun clan itself is not allowed to gallop in Yunhua City if there is nothing important.
The woman in white and her party came to the vicinity of the city gate, and after hearing the sound, they also dismounted, ready to lead the horse into Yunhua City, but the woman in white did not lead the horse, and her own guards led the horse for her.
Before entering Yunhua City, just looking at the gate of Yunhua City, you can know how prosperous Yunhua City is, there are people coming and going, such a scene is more common if it is in the state city or the transportation hub, but Yunhua County is a couple, it is very strange to have such a scene, and among the pedestrians who come and go, warriors account for a large proportion.
After about half a pillar of incense, the woman in white and her party finally stepped into Yunhua City, but the woman in white remembered one more thing: the city of Yunhua County actually had no entrance fee!
It is normal to enter a city and pay an entrance fee, mainly for outsiders, and will not charge entry fees for local residents entering and leaving the city, and the collection of entry fees is very different, with more fees for caravans and fewer ordinary pedestrians.
In the city where there are more pedestrians, the entrance fee collected can account for a large proportion of the financial revenue of the place, but all the cities in Yunhua County do not charge entry fees, Chenyang City is the same, and Yunhua City is the same, which makes the woman in white feel very strange.
During her trip to Yunhua County, the woman in white felt that there were too many strange things, as if Yunhua County was a different world.
Walking into Yunhua City, the noisy sound came to my face.
"Yakiniku, delicious pancakes."
"Rock sugar gourd! Rock sugar gourd! ”
Just by the sound of this one after another, you can feel the prosperity of Yunhua City, according to the prosperity of Yunhua City, I am afraid that only Zezhou City can surpass Yunhua City in Zezhou, if Yunhua City is not in this remote place, the prosperity of Yunhua City will even exceed Zezhou City.
The woman in white was a little surprised by the prosperity of Yunhua City, but the various noisy sounds that came to her face made her frown, obviously she didn't like this kind of scene, but looking at the surrounding scene, the woman in white opened her mouth slightly, but she couldn't say a word.
The woman in white thought back to the other large cities she had visited, and then compared them with the Yunhua City in front of her, and immediately two words popped up in her mind: neat, clean.
The street surface of Yunhua City is not a dirt road compacted by pedestrians, nor a stone paved road with stones, but a strange pavement (cement road), anyway, the woman in white has not seen this kind of pavement anywhere else, and it is very smooth.
The wide pavement is divided into several parts by wide yellow and white lines, the most spacious area in the middle is the area for horse-drawn carriages, ox carts, etc., the left and right sides are pedestrian passages, and on the left and right sides of the pedestrian passage are hawkers' stalls, and the hawkers' stalls are also planned, all of which are clustered one by one, rather than placed randomly.
The spacious street is divided into three parts, forming three functions, neat and clean, without the slightest sense of clutter.
Not only the woman in white, but also the guards of the woman in white and even all the people who came to Yunhua City for the first time were all surprised by the scene in front of them.
Whether it is a small county town, a medium-sized county town, a large state town, or a huge capital city, they cannot get rid of the common problems of this era, which is simply dirty and messy.
The areas where the dignitaries live in the city are okay, they definitely don't want the areas they live in to be dirty and messy, so they will hire some people to clean them frequently, but those ordinary residential areas and even slums, it is really unbearable, sewage flows, feces and urine everywhere, as if it is a garbage dump.
However, when it comes to Yunhua County, Chenyang City, the "gate" of Yunhua County, is much cleaner, and Yunhua City, the core of Yunhua County, is unexpectedly clean and tidy, similar to the residential area of the dignitaries in the state city, but there are definitely not as many pedestrians there as here.
Five years ago, the long-term population of Yunhua City was about 23,000 people, which was relatively small for a county, and in the Dali Empire, the population of a county town ranged from 20,000 to 30,000 and 40,000 to 50,000.
At the beginning, the ancestors of the Yun clan had great ambitions in their hearts when they established Yunhua City, so the scale of Yunhua City was very large, and it was the largest one in the county, which could accommodate more than 50,000 people at most.
Now Yunhua City has a long-term population of nearly 40,000, but the floating population of Yunhua City is more than 15,000, among these floating population, the proportion of warriors, rich people, literati and ink writers is very high, and Yunhua City can attract so many outsiders, the most important thing is the Yun's auction house and Yun's restaurant, Yun's study (specializing in selling books) and other buildings in Yunhua City, because of the existence of such buildings, not only in Zezhou, but also in other parts of the Dali Empire and even outside the Dali Empire.
"Auction houses" are not uncommon in the Dali Empire, basically there are traces of auction houses in the state city and even the imperial capital, but the most famous auction house in the Dali Empire, in addition to the Shen auction house in the imperial capital, is the Yun auction house in Yunhua City.
The Shen family has a big business, and the various auction items that can be collected by the Yun family are naturally far from comparable, but the Yun family auction house has its own characteristics, and the Yun family auction house often auctions all kinds of good weapons, and even once there was a weapon of the god weapon level, which was auctioned at a high price.
Weapons are the second life of a warrior, a good warrior will definitely increase the strength of a warrior, and cross-level battles are trivial, so Yun's auction attracted a large number of warriors to Yunhua City.
There are so many martial artists in Yunhua City, and other industries serving martial artists have increased rapidly, resulting in Yunhua City becoming more and more prosperous, and the prosperous Yunhua City has attracted more people, which is a virtuous circle.
What's more important is that Yunyi recruits many talents from outsiders who can take charge of themselves.
Yunhua City, which was once an uneducated person, has completely passed, and in the Dali Empire, not counting those ordinary people who make a living from farming, how many people still don't know the existence of Yunhua City?
