Kangxi's thirty-five years have passed in such a hurry.

For those major events that happened frequently, Kangxi and the Qing court also made arrangements one by one.

First of all, after the two dukes from Europe, Fei Doudoro and Henri Louis, were summoned by Kangxi, and went back in a depressed mood. …… After all, Kangxi still did not agree to send someone to them to reconcile the Turk Special Department. According to Kangxi's "Living Notes" in the future, the reason why Kangxi did not agree to the condition that Fei and Doro ceded part of the rights and interests of Alaska and Luzon (Luzon was a Spanish colony at that time, and Louis XIV sent his son to Spain as king, so he could naturally manage there), just because he didn't want to make Russia too stable. After all, after this incident, the Turks and Russia will inevitably be separated, which is naturally a good thing for the Qing court, which has always felt that Russia is a tiger and a wolf. And the fact is indeed as Kangxi and his subordinates expected, without the Qing court to send people to make peace, there is less buffer between Russia and Turgot. In the end, Turghut only sent 10,000 soldiers and horses to help Russia fight, and Russia had to leave more soldiers and horses to guard against this group of strong horseback people who could defect at any time. However, the final result of the two defenses was that a few years later, when the war in Europe was in full swing and the Russian and French coalition forces were winning on land, the Turks, who were afraid of being liquidated in the future, took the lead in uniting the Turks who had been beaten back step by step, stabbed Russia in the back and burned Moscow...... The situation on the battlefield has changed again. However, the Turks also paid the price for their actions, the Turks betrayed them, and at the same time, the embarrassed and angry Russia agreed to the terms of the ceasefire of the Turks, and also betrayed the interests of their allies, the French, in exchange for the return of the army to attack the Turks. After that, it took more than 100,000 people to break through the siege and return to his homeland. And, after helping the Qing Dynasty's Tianshan general Musal to exterminate the rebels, he obtained the permission of the Qing Dynasty to establish a state in the Caucasus, called the Oirat Mongol Khanate. It became a barrier to cut off Russia's eastward route.

In addition to this incident, the performance of the Qing court in response to the pirate attack was not only expected by the Manchurian five, but also disappointed the five.

Under the guidance of the "theory" that "if a dog bites a man, how can a man bite a dog again", and after the British East India Company and the Tokugawa shogunate of Japan sent people to apologize and intercede, the Qing court generously did not blame the two countries, and even the reparation clauses that Fei Laotou and Ma De desperately fought for demanding "warship compensation" from Britain and "opening up of commerce and trade" from Japan were finally lost.

Fortunately, the Qing court had not yet forgiven the pirates. Although there was no large-scale killing, these pirates were still won by Mader to be treated as "slaves in Ningguta with armored people", of course, except for a few people, these "slaves" are real slaves. The Asano family, who were far away in Japan, was also considered to be unlucky, and the Tokugawa shogunate found an excuse to send troops to uproot their power, and sent all their families and more than 3,000 servants to the Qing Dynasty, saying that they were to make amends to the Qing Empire. As a result, a large number of free people were sent to various parts of the Qing Dynasty, and more than 300 strong laborers were added to Ningguta.

However, after these events, in addition to the matter of replacing warships for the Fujian Navy Division, other things, such as matters related to strengthening the northern coastal defense, were no longer mentioned with the passage of time. In the north, in addition to the appearance of a small Qing court sailor with old warships in the Lushunkou area, the Qing court's army stationed in Korea increased by 15,000 men. It is said that this was a proposal from a certain minister of the DPRK and China, saying that if there was any abnormal movement, the Qing Dynasty naval division and the Korean fleet could transport troops through the Tsushima Strait to attack the enemy. Therefore, sending troops into Korea was enough to deter the enemy, and there was no need to spend huge sums of money to build seaports and water divisions. Although this proposal was criticized by many generals in the army, and even Li Guangdi and other insightful ministers, it was finally carried out. This makes many people unable to guess what kind of calculation Kangxi, who is not a military idiot, is making.

……

Thirty-six years of Kangxi.

January.

Beijing is still shrouded in the snow of Yanshan Mountain.

Originally, not many people would be willing to go out and walk in cold and hard weather.

But who called this the thirty-sixth year of Kangxi? This year is the year of Dabi again! The Spring Festival Examination was held in February, so the current city of Beijing is once again crowded with people who did not pass the exam last year and are waiting to try their skills again this year. And under the drive of these fiery movers, Beijing, which should still be in hibernation, also woke up early.

Although the sun is still half-dead in the sky, and the cold wind is still precipitous, the city of Beijing is still lively and lively.

Overpass!

Since last year, Yin Yuheng of Shuntianfu ordered the opening of a market here, gathered many vendors in the vicinity, and also ordered that except for the overpass, no more casual stalls in Beijing should be practiced, and it has immediately become a lively commercial district.

In particular, the concentration of jugglers has given Beijingers one more place to watch the excitement. Therefore, the flyover market was once hot, and there were so many people at the end of the year that even Shuntianfu had to send soldiers to maintain order. Due to the increase in people, the concentration of vendors, and the rapid increase in taxes in the Tianqiao area, this made many Qing court officials who were still critical of Yuheng's move feel that they have tightened their mouths. And Yu Heng also got an "outstanding" evaluation in last year's official assessment, and was also summoned by Kangxi to the Qianqing Palace to praise him in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and he raised his eyebrows.

However, with the further expansion of the market, there are naturally many not so good derivatives in the Tianqiao area! For example: city tyrants, ruffians and the like.

……

"That's right, Lao Tzu is a ruffian! What's wrong? Shopkeeper Wang, thirty taels of silver a month is too much? Don't forget that your restaurant is located on a flyover, which is a golden land! …… Do you know what a ruffian is? Tell you, ruffians are 'scraping the ground'! You don't say you earn a thousand taels a year, right? Lao Tzu only charged you more than 300 taels, and you grabbed the sky and the earth? …… Don't you want to do your business? That's okay, anyway, I don't lack this little money, it's a big deal, let's break up......" Tao Li held up a big belly, holding two gold-plated iron galls in his hands, and led a group of subordinates to carry out "peaceful" persecution of a restaurant shopkeeper Wang who had been open for less than two months!

"You, you bastards!" The newly opened restaurant is called "Yubo Building", the owner was a leather craftsman, and the ancestors of the three generations finally accumulated some silver to open such a restaurant. As a result, the restaurant has not been open for two months, and several gangs of ruffians have come to collect money. Originally, it would have passed if it was dealt with casually, but these ruffians have a bigger appetite than the others, and this Tao Li is even more incredible, as soon as he opens his mouth, it is thirty taels a month, plus the money that the previous few ruffian gangs want to go, his restaurant does not earn enough money in a year, how can he do it? As a result, in a fit of anger, the former king cobbler was scolded.

"You bastards, you drink human blood...... Lao Tzu has no money! ……”

"No money? Yes...... If you don't pay for it, you can make some blood accounting, and we'll continue to count it next month! Tao Li turned the iron gall in his hand and glanced at his subordinates, and immediately, two thugs with big waists and round shoulders rushed towards the king's shopkeeper. A few juniors wanted to come over and stop them, but they were immediately beaten down by random punches. As for the diners in the restaurant, they ran out as early as when the incident started.

"If you are surnamed Wang, do you dare not give Tao Ye's face? You're asking for yourself......" A thug with two violent teeth smirked at the shopkeeper Wang, and the other thug grabbed the tall and thin shopkeeper Wang, lifted it up and walked to the door of the restaurant, and threw it out!

"Bang Bang

"Giggle......

"What are you doing? My Chicken ...... Catch it, damn it, who is so lacking in virtue? …… Hurry, what are you looking for? Whoever helps Lao Tzu catch a chicken, Lao Tzu will be rewarded with ten taels of silver! ”

Outside the gate of Yubo Building is a street, and the shopkeeper Wang, who was thrown out of the restaurant, happened to hit a four-wheeled carriage that was still a strange business in Beijing, and knocked several chicken coops on the carriage into the air. As a result, several chickens in a chicken coop took advantage of the opening of the chicken coop to escape, and jumped around the street.

"Catch the chicken!"

There will be brave men under the great reward. People didn't have time to think about how those chickens that were fluttering in the streets could be worth so much money, but ten taels of silver to catch a chicken, even if it was a fraudster, was enough to try.

……

"Hey, why did you hit our car?" Under the busy work of everyone, several chickens that had not yet moved their muscles were quickly arrested and returned to the cage. And after cleaning up, a strong man who escorted the car walked up to the shopkeeper of the king who had managed to get up, grabbed his placket and asked angrily.

"I ...... I didn't mean to! "The chicken coop is made of strips, and it is not hard, so the king's shopkeeper did not fall hard. However, the chagrin of his mood is needless to say.

"Didn't mean to? Didn't you mean it? You'll lose the money we pay for the chickens! The strong man shouted.

"What? You...... You're a bully! The king's shopkeeper shouted.

"Bullying? Damn, the first time Lao Tzu came to the capital, you hurt Lao Tzu and almost couldn't make a difference, and blamed me for bullying people? The strong man shook the body of the shopkeeper and looked like he had suffered a loss.

"That's not right!" Just as the strong man was yelling at the shopkeeper Wang, a guy who was counting the chicken coop next to him suddenly let out a scream.

"What's wrong?"

"The number of chickens is wrong! …… One less! ”

"What? So what are you still doing? Look for it......" The strong man was shocked, and he didn't want any money, so he shook off the king's shopkeeper and looked in all directions.

……

"Yo, isn't this the Sixth Master of the Sea? …… When did the people of the Niu Co Lu clan start selling chickens? As soon as the wind and cold words began, Tao Li walked out of the Yubo Building with iron gall, and beside him, the toothy thug was carrying a chicken!
