(Today's first chapter, brothers, please continue to support, today five chapters are updated.)

Brothers, one place has dropped on the new book list, this is not good, we have to catch up, don't we?

Also, yesterday's chapter is an introduction to the Ming Dynasty military, and as the plot slowly deepens, the system of the entire dynasty must be slowly spoken. Hehe, that is, that chapter is to introduce the system, and the following is the development of the plot, please rest assured, brothers. ）

In the 276th year of the Ming Dynasty, no land, no compensation, no ministers, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies!

However, I still have to say that in terms of safety and prosperity alone, Yanjing is far inferior to Chang'an, Luoyang or Kaifeng, which are shrunk in the rear.

Although Yanjing is surrounded by the vast North China Plain, which is fertile for thousands of miles, it is not as good as the land of fish and rice in the south, and the grain output is far inferior to that of Susongchang and other regions. However, a large number of dignitaries and nobles in Yanjing City enjoy the food, drink and entertainment of the group but are destined to have a large number of needs, so that every year, more than 6 million stone of grain and countless materials have to be transported north through the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, so a proper term has been generated - Caoyun.

There are often floods in the north, and every disaster year, the peasants are hungry and have to escape, and a lot of them want to come to the capital to see if they can beg for a bite to eat. In addition, there are countless high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen in Yanjing City, and when these people have money, they will naturally do one thing like all ancient Chinese - buy land! Among them, even including the emperor, around Yanjing City, there are 800,000 acres of land that belong to the emperor's imperial village, and the white-hot land annexation has led to the displacement of a large number of farmers, so they have been drifted north unwillingly.

This is the Beipiao clan of the Ming Dynasty.

Just like the Beipiao in later generations, although there are also a few stars who rely on [***] to go up, most people can only be satisfied, and the situation of the Beipiao in the Ming Dynasty is not very good. Although some of them rely on helpers in the city and sell themselves as slaves, some small handicrafts and small trades can settle down, but the vast majority of people can't survive, they can't even stay in the city - some idiot TV dramas often have beggars on the street in the Ming Dynasty is rare, at least in Yanjing City, as the foot of the Son of Heaven, the first good place, the capital for the image of the street governance intensity than the later generations of urban management.

The Ming Dynasty has a special almshouse, which is a place specifically responsible for sheltering homeless people and beggars, and a certain amount of food is given every month, and the beggars will be sent to it as soon as they appear.

These people can only make a living outside the capital with some cheap jobs, as small knife hands, digging dung, and even doing some half-hidden secret prostitutes, and over time, some settlements have been formed outside the capital.

Liu Town, the official road, is one such place.

Lian Zining rode on his horse, looking at the dilapidated town in front of him, and couldn't help frowning. Although he knew before he came that this time would definitely not be easy, he didn't expect that Dai Zhangpu would send himself to such a place to be the general flag.

It is more appropriate to say that it is not so much a town as a slum.

In front of him is a loess road four or five meters wide, sewage is flowing sideways, and there is still garbage everywhere on the roadside, and a stench is emitted. On both sides of the loess road, there are houses, large and small, if a hut made of adobe, wooden planks, and some stones is no more than two meters high, it can also be called a house. Occasionally, there are a few of these low houses that are relatively tall, and they are the grain and oil shops, cloth villages, inns and other shops here, even if they are poor, as long as there are people who want to live, they must have these things.

There are quite a few people here, there are many children chasing and playing on the road, farmers carrying hoes, and of course, the most are the caravans driving the carriages - Lian Zining has already inquired on the road just now, and thanks to the deterrence of the buff of this swaggering unicorn suit, he has obtained a lot of information.

This is a traffic artery, to the east to Tianjin Wei, Cangzhou, Jinghai, you have to take this line, every time people come and go. What makes Lian Zining strange is that in the depths of the traffic artery, he still can't get rich, and this official road Liu Zhen is really a little weird.

The pedestrians on the road naturally saw him, and when they saw his unicorn suit, the oblique waist knife, and the horse under his crotch, his face showed a look of fear and numbness, and he naturally made a way.

Lian Zining stretched out his hand to a middle-aged man on the horse: "You, yes, it's you, come here!" ”

He looked a little helpless, since the first time he got off the horse and asked an old man on the side of the road for directions, only to be so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, he had learned this kind of impolite way of asking for directions.

"Master Jun, you, are you called Xiao?" The middle-aged man pointed to himself, and at this time, the people next to him retreated, and suddenly there was an open space next to the middle-aged man.

"That's you." Lian Zining took off his pointed flat eaves helmet (commonly known as a lightning rod helmet). The helmet was made of cast iron and carbon, and was plated with a thick layer of copper, and the spire was inserted with red tassels, which was beautiful and strong, but it was also very heavy, and it made him sweat profusely along the way. The rotten silver armor on the body is a good color, it is stamped with a heavy steel plate, it is extremely strong, but it is also very weighty, the whole body weighs more than forty pounds, and there is a set of unicorn clothes on the outside, a big cloak, which looks bright, but it is a stuffy can inside. He took his helmet and fanned the wind: "This official is the newly appointed official Liu Town's hundred households to guard the general flag, where are the hundred households here?" ”

As soon as he heard that he was the general banner of the hundred households here, the fear on the man's face suddenly increased a little, and he secretly cursed in his heart that there was another guy who had plucked his feathers, and he smiled with his waist: "If you go back to the adult, you can go all the way along this road, it is a big courtyard, blue brick wall, your old man has clear eyes, and you can recognize it at a glance." ”

Lian Zining nodded, clamped his legs, and rushed out as soon as he hit the horse. This body also practiced horseback riding in the early years, and its equestrian skills are quite strong, and along the way I almost found the muscle memory of the past, but the inner sides of my legs also hurt a little.

As soon as Lian Zining left, there was a slight discussion in the crowd.

"Hey, the last one just died, and here is another one who died, let's see how long this one can last?"

"I don't think so, this one looks like a capable person, maybe he can fight with that king, maybe who wins and who loses?"

"I have a fart ability, I see that it is a silver-like wax gun head, the group under Wang Dahu is all murderous without blinking, can you compare with them?"

"That's it, I look like this military master is so young, maybe he is a son and brother with a background, how capable can he be?"

"Who's coming, don't they all have to make money? Hey, these officials are really like locusts, crazy to make money, can't afford to offend Wang Dahu and can't clean up us ordinary people? Just fed one, and another one! This bad luck! ”
