'Wrap 100,000 yuan around your waist and ride a crane down to Yangzhou. This famous poem has been passed down through the ages, look how good it is. Li Chen wants this very much, he has 100,000 yuan, but riding a crane, this is not realistic, it is better to take a boat, but there is no way, he can only ride a horse now, in order to make a good move in advance, he will be on the road first, and he will have to come down quickly in two days, which makes him very tired.

Although he had learned to ride a horse after coming to the Tang Dynasty, he had never ridden so far or for so long, so he felt very tired. Well? I guess I'm tired too, no. It should be said that the soul comes through, this physical fitness is good, although people are a little stupid, but the body is very good. And, obviously, this body used to ride a horse, and it rode well.

Although he had never ridden a horse, he had seen some experiences and knew that the inner thigh would be very painful due to friction, and that those who had never ridden a horse might even bleed. But he didn't have any of these phenomena.

In addition, he used to learn to ride a donkey first and then a horse, and he learned to ride it very quickly. At that time, I thought that I was talented, but combined with the above evidence, it seems that Li Chen should have known it a long time ago, after the soul came, the soul body could not ride a horse, but the body still remembered. This caused him to be physically able to stand it and mentally exhausted.

'Is this Yangzhou?' What a big city. Li Chen took a group of people to Yangzhou, and the first thing that caught his eye was the huge city wall. Strictly speaking, Yangzhou is not bigger than Chang'an, but he has a vague impression of Chang'an, and after he was reborn, he didn't have a chance to visit Chang'an, so he fled. So for him, Yangzhou is very big.

How big is Yangzhou? Li Chen couldn't see it, but according to records, 110 steps in 15 miles from north to south, 30 steps from 7 miles to east and west, Yangzhou in the Tang Dynasty was large, far exceeding the scale of later generations. Li Chen and his party bypassed Zicheng and entered through the west gate of Yangzhou.

It was approaching dusk, and there were many people entering the city, and caravans could be seen rushing into the city. Prior to this, they first passed through the famous Daming Temple, did not have time to see more, passed through the Daming Bridge in front of the Daming Temple, and came to the West Gate of Luoximen, the West Gate of Luocheng. You can see it in the distance, I don't know how long the Yangzhou city wall is. It really shocked Li Chen.

'Anyway, has anyone ever been to Yangzhou? Ah Yong, Xiao Liang? After Li Chen came back to his senses, he asked a few people around him. Ah Yong's face was full of disdain, and before he could recover from the shock, Xiao Liang said, "I've been there. ''Introduce it, or we'll have a dark eye.'' ’

Yangzhou is very big, I just said. Yangzhou has a lot of water and a lot of bridges. 'Is there really a twenty-four bridge?' ''Seriously, there should be.'' Xiao Liang thought carefully and replied, the most convenient way to move in Yangzhou is to take a boat, like a Venice, the city is covered with a dense network of rivers, so the most convenient means of transportation is a boat.

"Since you've been here, lead the way, and find a place to stay." Li Chen took the lead and found a clean Didi store to live under the guidance of Xiaoliang.

When we first came, we saw that it was a sub-city, basically where some of the imperial court buildings were, the palace, and the yamen were all over there, and it was the concentration area of the government office. Which hill, the locals call it Shugang. ’

And here, it belongs to the jurisdiction of Jiangdu County, bounded by the Guanhe River, which is in the middle of Yangzhou, and the other side of the Guanhe River belongs to Jiangyang County. To the south from here is the workshop area. There is also a workshop area in the north, but it is a workshop of the servants and officials belonging to the imperial court. Close to Yacheng. ’

In this direction, there is the West Market, which crosses the Central Street, crosses a bridge, crosses the Guanhe, and is the East Market. A little south of the east market, there is a big market, where the Hu people live and trade. Basically, wealthy people also live nearby. ’

The next day, a little bit of understanding the general direction of Yangzhou to get a group of people, leaving the Didian, this time the target is outside the city of Daming Temple, will introduce these, mainly to let people who have not been here, have a general understanding of Yangzhou, in case they get lost, it is good to find someone to ask, where they live, is Zanxian Fang, in case you can't find the way when the time comes, so that you don't even know where you live.

'It's so lively. On the way, the huge praised that Xufu is quite prosperous, but compared to Yangzhou, it is a rural place.

Although Yangzhou still maintains the Tang Dynasty Delifang system, but because of the active business, the whole system has long been destroyed, and the Huainan Festival envoys have to be in charge of here, and no one has the heart to care about this trivial matter.

Therefore, along the road, you can see the destroyed walls of the shop, and many businesses have blatantly opened their doors on the side of the street. What's more, the three-story building, for example, the mansion where they live, which is rarely seen in the Xu Mansion.

Even, a little too much, not to mention the demolition of the walls of the lane, quite like those street vendors in later generations, have already put things on the street, robbing a third of the road to set up stalls. Seeing this Li Chen, there was a trace of kindness.

(I don't know if Wei Xuan has done a good job.) Looking at the prosperous market in Yangzhou, Li Chen was not happy at all about being forced to leave Xufu, and disappeared, looking forward to a new life in Yangzhou. The active business activities here are the best places for him to show his strength.

Wei Xuan, Steward Wei, Li Chen sent him down to the south of the Yangtze River to buy tea mountains before, this is one thing. The most important thing is that he brought a lot of money, and he had to come to Yangzhou first, he was the one who really hit the outpost, and Li Chen came one step ahead, mainly to confirm the situation and confirm that Wei Xuan had found a place.

What to do in case there isn't. At that time, you can only find a few mansions and shops to settle down first. Find another place.

Came to Rossimen again, it was not early now, only some caravans were left that were slow to move, and in the scolding of the leader, they slowly walked out of the city gate.

While waiting for a while, several people were looking around, Ah Yong and Xiao Liang were okay, they came once. Huge couldn't be idle for a while, until he was stopped by Ah Yong, although the two were the same year, but Dang was trained hard by Ah Yong, and he was a little afraid of Ah Yong.

And Li Chen was looking at the city wall, the buildings on both sides were a little dilapidated, and those three-story buildings were gone here, leaving only a large number of bungalows. Probably because he was afraid that if someone attacked the city, it would be affected, so the city walls of this generation were generally low.

The city walls, on the other hand, are made of rammed earth, with only some corners covered with masonry. When I first entered the city, I saw the magnificent appearance, which was completely reflected by the afterglow of the setting sun shining on the city wall.

After waiting for a while, Li Chen and the others followed the caravan out of the city and went straight to Daming Temple. After a little half a day, they arrived at Daming Temple, which was no different from other temples, first of all, it was a huge archway, and Li Chen was sharp-eyed, and he vaguely saw the people under the archway. That seems to be his goal. (To be continued.) )
