"New things need to be observed, this Suzhou is well governed, such a busy canal, grain ships, salt ships, cloth ships on it, there is no escort on both sides of the strait"

Chu Yi said

"In the whole of Suzhou, the most heavily guarded place is this canal. Young master, you see, the pavilions on both sides of the canal, but all the pavilions above the second floor, are garrisoned by officers and soldiers."

"There is a mansion with a red plaque every 300 meters, and there are 300 elite soldiers in the mansion. The canal stretches for hundreds of miles, and the guards are enough to protect the safety of the canal."

"On weekdays, patrols in the city are also focused on the canals, which is a bustling place after all. If the soldiers are exhausted, it will not be conducive to the people to play and sightsee."

"It's loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and there's a watchtower that keeps you looking around the clock throughout the year. There hasn't been a wrongdoer for so many years."

Gu Ming said

"It's a good arrangement, and the most important thing is the comfort of the people. Suzhou is an old city, those ancient buildings, look pleasing to the eye"

"What our ancestors left behind, we can't lose it. I've heard that some merchants want to make money with these ancient buildings, and some want to keep them for themselves or even change their appearance, right?"

Chu Yi said

"There is such a thing, I have to refuse. How can the matter of cultural inheritance be measured by silver taels, these are things that are shared by everyone"

"No one can take it for themselves, and there are some things that cannot be used as things to make money. At this point, I admire several literati in Suzhou."

"I just rejected those businessmen, and those literati wrote dozens of articles criticizing the businessmen involved, and the rhetoric was very sharp."

The merchants and the literati fought against each other for a few days, and finally shook hands and made peace under the mediation of the government. Literati and businessmen value different things."

"Those of us who have been in the cold for decades are actually a bit biased towards literati in our hearts. As I grew older, I became more and more aware of the phrase "useless is a scholar"

"If there is a rich businessman and a little scholar standing in front of me at the same time, in order to live a better life, I will choose a rich businessman, maybe this rich businessman will only make Weichen's life a little better for a while"

"But it is far away for a little scholar to make my life good, I need hope. I hope that my life will get better soon, people are very realistic"

"Sometimes he makes all kinds of choices for the sake of life, although he is not willing to make a choice from the bottom of his heart. It's not that I look down on businessmen."

"In fact, everyone is the same, Weichen thinks that what matters is what you can bring, what you can bring at what time and within what period. The place in Suzhou is only so big"

"Agriculture has reached its peak, we need businessmen, and we need the flow of businessmen to bring Suzhou to the next level, not the empty talk of scholars."

"If empty talk can make people's lives better, I just talk about it every day. You don't have to run around, just sit in the mansion."

"I don't know if I'm right, because the little scholar's empty talk, if it is implemented many years later, Suzhou may be rich in more years."

"Maybe some people will say why they didn't listen to the little scholar, if they did, Suzhou would have been rich a long time ago. If their ancestors were rich, they would surely be richer."

"When I'm struggling to make a decision, I get drunk. Look up at the moon in the night sky and ask your heart if you have chosen the right one."

"If you feel right and stick to it, a person is destined to not be loved and recognized by everyone. Leave it to the future if everything is wrong."

"Those more metaphysical things are not what I should be thinking about right now. It would be good to seek his own government in his position, benefit one party for one term of office, and serve the people."

"For the sake of the people of the present, as much as possible for the people of the future. There is no now, no future. I'm not a god either, and I can't see what comes out of every choice I make."

"I can only do my best and make the best decision possible. As long as there are people who read the good of Wechen, if all the people read my good, I will succeed."

Gu Ming said

"Metaphysical, long-term, short-term, no one can predict what will happen in the next moment. Thinking too much is often a mediocrity, so it's not worth it, and time is running out."

"If we keep thinking about right and wrong, keep thinking about it, do we have time to wait. How much time will a famine give us to consider right and wrong"

"Being a person and doing things, words and deeds are all a profound knowledge. What we need more now is immediate results, and if there is a problem, we will solve it."

"What kind of general brings out what kind of soldiers, be yourself, there are not so many worries. Boss, come and have a copy."

After Chu Yi finished speaking, he sat on a chair on the side of the road, looking at the passing crowd lightly, old and young, helping the old and the young

"Okay, Childe wait a minute," the boss said, and began to get busy, the first big business of the evening

"Lao Gu, how about this pastry" Chu Yi asked

"I haven't eaten this house, it's so deserted, maybe I only started doing business in the past two days. Young master, there is a good one in front. I go to that restaurant every time, I have to queue up every time, business is very good, it's overcrowded"

Gu Ming said

"Let's eat this one tonight, maybe this one will be overcrowded in the future. Keep trying, try each one, and only then will you know which one tastes better for you."

"All the flavors of the world are only known after tasting them. Just like the story of Buddhism, the little monk went to the garden to pick flowers, and only when he walked through the garden would he know which flower was the most colorful."

Chu Yi said

"When the young master said this, it suddenly reminded me of the days when I was in a private school, and Mr. Private School always said that he was going to travel far away, read thousands of books, and travel thousands of miles."

"The things in the book and what I have seen with my own eyes can I remember and understand deeply, and the articles without life are boring and boring"

"Now, yes, there are some indiscriminate literati. There is no life, just copy and copy, copy a little here, copy a little there"

"There's nothing of their own, maybe they don't even know what they're writing when they put pen to paper. I don't have life experience, and I write out a pile of things."

"Even the most gorgeous rhetoric is like a mirror, and it can't stand up to polishing. That kind of article, it's very boring to read, and it doesn't have the breath of life."

"Without charm, it's like a person who has no spirit, just an empty shelf. The lyricist of the Northern Song Dynasty Haofang faction said it well"

"The young man doesn't know the taste of sorrow, and he is worried about the new words. What you do reluctantly, you must not be able to do well, and you can only do one thing well from the inside out."

"The people take food as their heaven, and no one shall go a day without food, nor shall he be ignorant for a day. The taste of the pastry, the taste of the food, it tasted good with my heart"

Gu Ming said

"Whoever does not act with the heart, he who has no heart is dead. Thousands of industries, all the same. The Northern Song Dynasty was bullied and annihilated, and the wine clothes would not be like this"

"Young master, I sometimes think about some jungle problems, hunting grounds, and the weak and the strong. But there are always those who fish in troubled waters, those who are indiscriminate, and those who are drunk and dreaming of death."

"Some of these people are obvious, and some are very hidden. If the wine coat is a person, these people are a disease in a person."

"Now young master, I don't know if it's a minor illness or a major illness, whether it's a minor illness or a major illness, it's best to uproot it without aftermath"

"It takes time, it needs to be done quietly. The wine coat is so big that it takes a long time to do something silently."

"And whether it will leak the news is unknown. If there is no leakage, it is unknown what the effect will be if the knife goes down."

"Young Master, I deal with too many things every day, and sometimes I don't go back to everything. It's easy to start doing something like me."

"There are a lot of factors that need to be considered in order to keep the results within expectations. I advise you to be worthy of your heart, and I am also persuading myself, but I have never understood it all."

"The responsibilities on my body are heavy, there are more things to consider, and many decisions are not easy to undergo. To be a man and to do things, very profound knowledge"

"Su Lao is doing a good job, I have time to visit and talk carefully for a few days. If someone leads the way on the right path, it will be easier to walk."

Chu Yi said

"Childe, the pastry you want" The boss walked over with a wooden box "The rest is being made, it will be fine soon, Childe wait a minute"

"Well, don't worry, just put it here, you can get busy" Gu Ming took the food box and said

"Young Master, are you going to eat here or..."

"Let's eat here, the view is broad," Chu Yi said

Gu Ming opened the food box, took out one pastry after another, and put it on the table

"Lao Gu, you can eat it too, taste it. Old Lei, you also eat, what are you doing standing still. Sit down and eat together, I'm angry if I don't eat young master."

Chu Yi said

"Thank you, young master, come..."Lei Ming took a few pieces from the pastries and distributed them to the forbidden army, who sat on the chair and smoked slowly

As casual as he could, Chu Yi ate the pastry with a smile on his face. These forbidden armies are so interesting, like the casualness of sitting on pins and needles

Alas, you still have to adapt, this identity, let them suddenly change, it is indeed a bit difficult for strong people. If you are their friend

They may be a little casual, but as long as they are the emperor, they can't be completely casual. A companion is like a tiger, who is not afraid of a tiger

Identity, it's a bit stereotypical if you care too much, and it's more casual to look at Lao Gu. Su Lao was also very casual before, maybe he was an old man

Will light up some things, like the taste of this pastry. This plate is lighter, that plate is a little sweet, and that plate is a little salty

Chu Yi looked at a figure, and a person hurriedly ran over, ran behind Gu Ming and stopped

"Say, what's the matter," Gu Ming said

"My lord, this..."

The person who came opened his mouth and said, looking at Chu Yi and them, he thought that these people were the private friends of the prefect. What he wants to report, they can't listen to

How did he know that sitting opposite Gu Ming was on the pilgrimage, Chu Yi was in Suzhou for the first time, and only officials with heads and faces in Suzhou had seen him on the narrow bridge

The person who came was the chief butler of Gu Ming's mansion, and he had never seen the emperor. No matter how much he thought about it, he probably wouldn't have thought that the Son of Heaven would sit on a roadside stall and eat cheap pastries

If the big butler's mind is a little brighter, he may figure it out after turning a corner. The emperor's southern tour, the whole of Suzhou knows, and when he arrives tonight, the whole of Suzhou knows

If the prefect does not accompany the emperor and his friends, is it a bit of a death. I don't know what the big butler is going to say, maybe the report overwhelmed his head, so that his head didn't turn around for a while
