Chapter 319: The Great Change of Tokyo Bianliang City (Asking for a Monthly Pass!) )

Wang Lun and his entourage came to the outside of Bianliang City in Tokyo, looking at the ruins that had not been completely repaired from a distance, as well as the traces of being scorched by the fire everywhere, it was not difficult to think of the scene when the capital of the Zhao and Song dynasties of almost 200 years encountered the fire before.

In the minds of Liu Qi and Li Yanxian, the people in Bianliang City, Tokyo, should be slowly licking their wounds like other people who have experienced the baptism of war.

No, after Wang Lun and his entourage entered Bianliang City in Tokyo, Liu Qi and Li Yanxian could no longer see any traces of the war.

The streets are neat, vertical and horizontal, and present a chessboard-like pattern, which breaks the restrictions of the market and opens up a new layout of the street market, making it an international metropolis where the eight wildernesses compete and all countries are connected.

The streets are neatly planned like a chessboard, and it is dominated by four main roads, which run through the whole city.

Among them, the main street is from the south of the Xuande Gate of the Imperial Palace, through the Suzaku Gate of the inner city, directly to the outer city, which is more than ten miles long.

This is the main road that the emperors of the Zhao and Song dynasties worshipped their ancestors, held the southern suburbs and went out of the palace to play, which is now the central axis of Bianliang City in Tokyo - Yujie!

Walking on the royal street, you can see urban casinos everywhere.

Among them, there are more than 50 large and small hook columns.

The inner middle tile, lotus shed, and peony shed are densely covered with nebulae, and the liwazi, yaksha shed, and elephant shed are the largest of them, which can accommodate thousands of people.

The types of tile art include small singing, singing, miscellaneous opera, cane-head puppet, hanging silk puppet, Shangsuo miscellaneous hand play, cane kicking, telling history, scattered music, dancing whirl, children's sumo, shadow play, insects and ants, Zhugong tune, business riddles, symbiotics, talking nonsense, miscellaneous plays, miscellaneous classes, calling fruits, pretending to be gods and ghosts, etc., are innumerable.

There are many medicines, selling hexagrams, drinking old clothes, exploring the Bo, eating, shaving, paper painting, and making songs.

And more than urban casinos are liquor stores.

In this city, there are 72 large main stores, and there are countless smaller "foot shops".

These large stores have a very ornate gatehouse decorated with colored silk at the entrance to attract customers.

On both sides of Jiuqiaomen Street are large stores, and the colorful buildings of each house embroider flags and display them, covering the clouds and the sun.

Not to mention the wide variety of large hotels, even the foot shops that can be found everywhere also have a wealth of goods.

For example, there are two types of cake shops: oil cake shops and hu cake shops.

The main products in the oil cake shop are steamed cakes, sugar cakes, and those that are packaged in boxes or with plates.

There are more kinds of Hu cakes, including door oil, chrysanthemum, wide jia, side thickness, oil disaster, pith cake, new style, and full hemp.

Three or five people sit on a piece of eucalyptus, some roll dough, cut dough, and pinch lace, as if an assembly line operation has been formed.

This is a thousand years younger than in the West.

And the people on this royal street, needless to say, farmers, boatmen, merchants, small craftsmen, officials, scholars, Taoists, foot monks, Jianghu Langzhong, life masters and other 360 lines, all of which are complete.

Slightly different from Tokyo Bianliang City during the Zhao and Song dynasties, there were a large number of people (Hu people of Khitan and other ethnic groups) in Tokyo Bianliang City at this time, as well as many big cannibals and Persians, including some blonde and blue-eyed Westerners, and of course some brown, brown, white and even red-haired Westerners.

It is worth mentioning that there are also quite a few hotels run by foreigners.

The sign of their shop is "Orchid", which is a woman who uses a foreign woman as a waitress to perform singing and dancing part-time.

There is a sense of immediacy that "the prostitute is like a flower, and she is like a laughing spring breeze".

Many people have been introduced to their stores by these foreign women, who are very different from Chinese women, and they have spent a lot of money on them.

These foreigners did not appear all at once.

Because Li Cun vigorously developed maritime trade and had a comprehensive and open attitude towards people from all countries who wanted to come to the Great Qian Dynasty, and would even take the initiative to help them come to the Great Qian Dynasty, so that in the southern regions controlled by Li Cun at the earliest, there were already foreigners from various countries, especially in those coastal port cities, all kinds of foreigners had long been commonplace, and the local people of Daqian had already been surprised by these foreigners who looked strange.

Later, these foreigners slowly moved to Yingtianfu, Nanjing, the capital of the previous Daqian Dynasty.

After Li Cun temporarily moved the capital to Bianliang City, Tokyo, these foreigners followed him to Bianliang City, Tokyo.

These foreigners are chasing Li Cun's footsteps, of course, they are not here to play, they are mainly here to do business and trade.

These foreigners are mainly engaged in luxury business, such as jewelry, spices, and precious items from various countries.

In addition, they have strong financial resources and good business talents, and they are also involved in all kinds of profitable businesses, such as food, entertainment, horses, and so on......

In addition to their abundant financial resources and good business skills, these foreigners were able to make a fortune in the Daqian Dynasty because of the preferential policies given to them by the Daqian Imperial Court.

The imperial court stipulated that only 20 percent of the customs duties and 5 percent of the transaction tax would be levied on foreign businessmen who abided by the laws of the Great Qian, and it was strictly forbidden for local governments to raise taxes without permission.

Although this tax is slightly higher than that of local Chinese merchants, it is already very generous compared to other regions of this period.

The key point is that the Daqian Dynasty not only had an excellent business atmosphere and gave merchants from all over the world fair trade opportunities, but also vigorously protected the property of merchants.

The key point is that as long as these foreigners are willing to join the nationality of the Daqian Dynasty, they can enjoy exactly the same treatment as the merchants of the Daqian Dynasty.

Of course, it is not so easy to join the nationality of the Daqian Dynasty, because it requires living in the Daqian Dynasty for three years and being able to speak Chinese fluently.

In addition, Li Cun vigorously developed maritime trade.

In addition, under the condition that Li Cun fully promoted the research and development of sea ships, the sea ships of the Daqian Dynasty were safer and could sail farther away.

This undoubtedly caused more merchants and elites from various countries to run to the Great Qian Dynasty.

Moreover, many foreigners saw that the Daqian Dynasty was so prosperous, so advanced, and so civilized, far from being comparable to the country in which they originally lived, and then sharpened their heads and joined the Daqian Dynasty.

As the current capital of the Daqian Dynasty, Tokyo Bianliang City undoubtedly has the largest number of foreigners, and they have begun to integrate into the life of the Daqian Dynasty.

Liu Qi was born in Jiangmen, is the son of Liu Zhongwu, the envoy of the Luchuan Army, he is handsome, good at archery, and his voice is like a bell.

When Liu Qi was still very young, he followed his father Liu Zhongwu out to fight, once the water tank at the gate of the camp was full of water, Liu Qi shot an arrow into the water tank, pulled out the arrow and lost the water in the tank gushing out, Liu Qi then shot an arrow just plugged the original arrow hole, people were impressed by his superb archery skills.

At that time, Liu Qi was already famous in the Western Army, and his reputation was not below Yao Pingzhong, the "little captain" at that time.

But the problem is that Liu Zhongwu at that time was the commander of the Shaanxi Sixth Route Army who succeeded Liu Fa, and Zhao Ji, who inherited the tradition of the old Zhao family and did not believe in military generals, was very uneasy about Liu Zhongwu.

In order to solve Zhao Ji's suspicions, Zhao Ji adopted Gao Qiu's recommendation, and specially awarded Liu Zhongwu's favorite son Liu Qi as the only waiter, and transferred Liu Qi to Zhao Ji's nose as a hostage.

It was not until Liu Zhongwu died three years ago, and the commander of the Western Army had changed from Liu Zhongwu to a teacher, that Liu Qi was able to return to the northwest and return to the Deshun Army.

Because of this hostage experience, Liu Qi lived in Bianliang City, Tokyo for six years, so that Liu Qi was familiar with everything in Bianliang City, Tokyo.

In the former Liu Qi's view, Tokyo Bianliang City is the most prosperous place in the world, and there is no one, and there is no possibility of improvement.

And yet—

Until today, Liu Qi knows that he was wrong.

Although the exterior of the current Tokyo Bianliang Castle has not changed much from the original, no, it should be said that it is more dilapidated than the original, but its interior has far surpassed the past.

All nations are coming! The power of the country is at its peak! Unprecedented prosperity!

If Liu Qi is forced to find a place that can be compared with the current Bianliang City in Tokyo, then there is only one place that can be compared with it, and that is Chang'an City at its peak.

That, the center of the world during the Tang Dynasty!

And Li Yanxian, who is not familiar with Bianliang City in Tokyo, and can also say that he has not seen Bianliang City in Tokyo during the prosperous period, has a completely different feeling, or he is concerned about a completely different point.

In the entire Bianjing City, there will be a military patrol shop every 300 steps, in which five soldiers will be stationed, and at the same time, a lookout post will be built on the high ground, and hundreds of soldiers can be stationed in the rooms below.

Li Yanxian knew that these cadres and soldiers were not there to maintain public order, but to fight fires.

Because Li Yanxian saw that there were a lot of fire-fighting tools stored in each military patrol shop.

And then ...... Gone!

Yes!

Li Yanxian looked at the past, and could no longer see any soldiers and horses of the cadre army.

In the capital city that had just been captured for more than a year, which originally belonged to the Zhao and Song dynasties, only some firefighting soldiers were set up on the surface, but there were no soldiers and horses to deter the people.

This shows that the Daqian Dynasty has completely occupied the city of Bianliang in Tokyo and even in the entire Gyeonggi region.

Moreover, looking at the people in Bianliang City, Tokyo, it seems that they are very happy to be ruled by the Daqian Dynasty.

"In another three or five years, I'm afraid that the world will no longer know that there is a Song Yin!"

At this moment, Li Yanxian really regretted that he led people to prevent Li Cun from completing the unification!

From all indications, Li Cun really looks like a good emperor, not like the small court of the Western Song Dynasty, Li Cun is a bully, lustful and greedy bandit.

Of course, whether Li Cun is what he imagined in his heart, a saint of the ages who can end the chaos and lead the Han people to prosperity and strength, has to be observed by himself before he can finally determine.

Li Cun didn't let Liu Qi and Li Yanxian wait too long, so he summoned them to meet him.

When the two of them walked into the vertical arch hall under the leadership of the chamberlain, Li Cun was reviewing the chapters.

Seeing that Liu Qi and Li Yanxian were coming, Li Cun did not put on a fight, nor did he give Liu Qi and Li Yanxian a dismount to beat Liu Qi and Li Yanxian, but said without being angry and arrogant: "You two wait a minute, I have an urgent matter here that needs to be dealt with immediately." ”

After speaking, Li Cun lowered his head and continued to review the chapter.

Li Cun's casualness is like that of his own trusted ministers.

This made Liu Qi and Li Yanxian a little unsure of what to do, and there was a trace of irrepressible expectation in the depths of their hearts......

About Li Cun, Liu Qi and Li Yanxian have heard too much, too much.

Like Li Cun, he is a contemporary god of war, who has conquered all battles in his life and has never been defeated.

For such words, some people must have scoffed, thinking that the people of the Great Qian Dynasty were complimenting Li Cun, but Liu Qi and Li Yanxian, who were familiar with the Qianjun, would not have such thoughts.

There are many things that distinguish the cadre army from the Song army.

-- For example, the military discipline of the cadres, the establishment of the cadres, the weapons of the cadres, the fighting will of the officers and men of the cadres, and the sense of honor of the officers and men of the cadres are all different from those of the Song army.

Some generals of the Song Army have summed up that if you throw a cadre into a group of Song soldiers, you will definitely be able to find him out at a glance, and if you throw a Song army soldier into a group of cadres and soldiers, he will soon transform into a cadre soldier.

These are certainly not what Han Shizhong and Wu Jue, the generals who threw themselves from the Song army to the cadre army, can do.

The only person who can do this is Li Cun, the founder of the cadre army.

It is not difficult to see from the cadres brought out by Li Cun that Li Cun is certainly the most outstanding military strategist of our time.

To be honest, whether it is Liu Qi or Li Yanxian, they have all fantasized about fighting with Li Cun, the contemporary god of war.

It's a pity that although Li Cun is not yet thirty years old, Li Cun no longer personally commands the army to fight after he became the emperor.

And this is what Liu Qi and Li Yanxian, the generals of the Song army who were constrained by the emperors and civil officials of the Zhao and Song dynasties, like Li Cun the most.

Li Cun has always fully believed in the generals under his command, and often said that "the general will not be subject to the orders of foreign kings", so whoever Li Cun sends to fight will never easily interfere with who fights, and if any general has any problems or loses the battle, Li Cun will usually give them one or two more opportunities to atone for their crimes.

Such humane management really made those Song generals who had to wait for the emperor to promulgate the formation map when they went to war.

Of course, although Liu Qi and Li Yanxian are not people who like gossip, what they hear the most is Li Cun's romantic affairs.

One person monopolized all the royal daughters and clan daughters of the Great Liao Empire and the Zhao Song Dynasty, as well as the royal daughters of the Li Dynasty, the royal daughters and goddesses of the Champa Dynasty, and many royal daughters and clan daughters of the Jin Kingdom.

In addition, there is a story that Li Cun had to tell with the four famous prostitutes, Li Cun cuckolded Zhao Mingcheng and stole the first talented girl Li Qingzhao.

And so on and so forth......

In short, the most important thing in Li Cun is to have an affair with all kinds of beauties.

So much so that even if Liu Qi and Li Yanxian don't care about Li Cun's private life, they are also familiar with Li Cun's romantic affairs, and then they will inevitably feel that Li Cun is that kind of lewd person.

Now, after a close look at Li Cun for a long time, Liu Qi and Li Yanxian really can't see what kind of lewd person Li Cun is, on the contrary, looking at Li Cun a little bit like a peach skimming like a knife there and intently reviewing the chapters, they believe that Li Cun is the invincible God of War who has never been defeated, and the holy monarch who understands that the generals fully give the generals the opportunity to give the generals the opportunity to display their talents and make the generals all happy and surrender.

After about a tea time, Li put down the pen in his hand, and then handed the approved piece to the chamberlain, and asked the chamberlain to bring it to General Lü.

At this time, Li Cuncai looked at Liu Qi and Li Yanxian: "You two have finally come to join me......
