Because Yang Zhaofei knew that if religion knew that it could exchange money for merit and gold texts, he believed that all religious institutions would definitely scrape up the money of the entire force, and even scrape off the gold leaf of the god statue and melt it into gold to exchange it for the merit gold book!

Don't say that religious people would do this, even those non-religious people who understand the value of the Golden Book of Merit will definitely give everything they have in exchange for the Golden Book of Merit! Because this Golden Book of Merit is a stabilizer that can stabilize people's souls and even more so make people's merits stable!

You must know that a cultivator whose soul is stable means that his cultivation is stable, and his merits are stable, so he will not lose his merits and protection because of all kinds of strange things.

Ordinary people don't know that when they feel that they are unlucky, it is actually the invasion of all kinds of evil intentions, and the merit protection can save you from the harm of these evil intentions, so as to smooth sailing, which can be said to be both a lucky enhancer and a talisman to ward off evil spirits. Therefore, the Golden Book of Merit is correct no matter how much it raises its status!

Therefore, if he knew that Zhang Zhongjun had the idea of continuing to copy scriptures for money, Yang Zhaofei would definitely laugh out loud. But if he knew that Zhang Zhongjun was only going to write eight books, he would definitely cry tears and snot and saliva together.

I feel that I have memorized the content required for the talent test, and now I am working hard to lift people to try, so Zhang Zhongjun, who is ready to take it easy, naturally went to the street to hang out after having three gold leaves.

Although I have memories of wandering around in Zijin County in my mind, I don't have the reality of feeling it in person like now.

After experiencing it personally, Zhang Zhongjun couldn't help but sigh, although the customs and customs here are similar to those in the imperial world, the difference is also huge.

There are all kinds of other things, no different from the appearance of the imperial world, such as cloth shops, green buildings, grocery stores, etc., and people's clothing, words and deeds are almost the same.

The big difference is related to food, such as restaurants, where the tables are twice as big as those in the Imperial World, and the rice bowl directly becomes a rice bowl, and the dish for the dishes is the size of a basin.

The farmers who went to the city to sell vegetables, chickens, ducks and geese in the countryside were even more basket-by-cage into the city, and the guests were also bought cage-by-cage.

Zhang Zhongjun once saw that after the peasants bargained with the guests, a cage of 10 chickens was sold, and only 400 copper plates were sold! That is, 40 yuan for a chicken. Coarse grain costs 7 yuan, pork is only 25 yuan a catty, and a chicken that is so fat and at least four or five pounds is only 40 yuan? This price is too cheap.

But before this thought came to mind, he heard the bargaining sound of the cloth shop, and listened to the three-zhang long burlap that actually cost at least 2 yuan or more, and Zhang Zhongjun didn't know what to say.

Zhang Zhongjun felt the customs of the county all the way, in addition to feeling the huge difference in the price of food and other goods, he also felt the large population of this county. It's just that, on the whole, Zijin County, which belongs to the remote mountainous area, is actually crowded with people everywhere, and I dare not say that it is crowded, but I can't walk quickly.

And a rough estimate, this county town is built for some reason, with a population of at least five or six hundred thousand people, with a huge construction of fifty or sixty square kilometers!

As soon as this estimate came out, Zhang Zhongjun couldn't help but be stunned.

Damn, you've been neglecting the population of this world all along!

In the imperial world, a county can have 100,000 households, and those are all upper counties, which belong to the counties that the central government and the county focus on. Moreover, these 100,000 households are still the entire county, including the entire population of the towns and villages below. If you just count the population of the county, there are 30,000 or 50,000 people who are already a super prosperous county.

But here, this Zijin County, a county town that stands tall in the mountains and far away from the prosperous area, not only is the area of the county seat vast and vast, which can be compared with the rich counties of the imperial world, but also the population can be compared with several important cities in the empire.

There are 500,000 or 600,000 people living in the county alone! How many people live in the entire county? And how many people are in one prefecture, and how many people does Fengwutang, which controls the land of three prefectures, control how many populations!

When I think about it like this, I can't help but get goosebumps.

It seems that his perception of these gangs and the government is still at the point of self-righteousness, not to mention anything else, just controlling such a large number of people, there is no turmoil, which is a big problem.

Although the world is full of vitality, food crops and livestock are bumper harvests, making it easy to feed oneself, and the rapid increase in population is understandable.

What's more, the Great Chen Dynasty lasted for 500 years, and the countless turmoil during this period was a turf grabber between gangs, rarely affecting civilians, let alone cities.

Because there is no war, food can be easily obtained, and the city is still so stable, it is no wonder that the population of the city is so large.

But when there are many people, there must be many problems, especially after a vote of young people gather together, but these days, except for the artificial massacre of the villages in Huiyuan Mansion by the idle men of Heyuan Mansion, nothing else has happened at all.

Zhang Zhongjun was very puzzled about this before, Heyuan Mansion had killed five or six thousand strong men, and it had caused the same number of casualties to Huiyuan Mansion, but in Zijin County, he didn't hear any rumors.

There wasn't even a single person who discussed where the nearly 1,000 strong men recruited by Zijin County had gone. It's as if they've disappeared and they're gone.

Now look at the density of this population, but we can also understand that there are five or six hundred thousand people in a single county seat, dozens of towns in the county, at least millions of people, among which there are nearly 1,000 strong men, and they are all annoying idlers.

Zhang Zhongjun couldn't help but smile bitterly, if it weren't for the fact that he was forced to be recruited as an idler, after such a thing, he was still in Longwo Town as a young master, and he would definitely not care about where the idlers in the town went!

Ants are ants, and they can't make the slightest sound when they are wiped out, but if a show disappears, I don't know how many years it will be passed on, and how many stories will be derived from it.

So I don't go to the gang, but participate in the imperial examination, that's right, so I don't want to disappear and no one pays attention!

Zhang Zhongjun was glad for his decision, and after adjusting his mood, he walked towards the gold and silver store while watching the lively scene on the street.

Entering the gold store, Xiao Er and the shopkeeper hurriedly put down their business and came to greet Zhang Zhongjun.
