Ancient Divine Emperor - Chapter 302
Hong Yu was melancholy and silent. He quietly listened to Jiang lishuo and Mo Ningxiang talking. The three walked together on the street, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Da! Da! Da!
Just then, a group of soldiers, about a hundred people, formed a neat team and ran and patrolled the streets.
They are all wearing armor, carrying long knives and powerful crossbows. They are all tall styles like iron towers. During running, they sing loud military songs. Their voice is like a torrent, but they give people a great sense of security. At least in this way, there will be no hooligans, rogues and criminals in the market.
Even many people who chased each other and rushed to see the “big star” Luo Tianxian calmed down and stopped saluting when they met these soldiers.
There are also people in the streets who wear small officials’ clothes to sweep the floor. They are “urban management”. They are usually responsible for maintaining public security in the market and cleaning the whole city. Even “Street offices” are established in each street, which are under the jurisdiction of the “urban management” department and are responsible for assisting the imperial court and the government. These people are also paid by the imperial court. It is precisely because of the existence of these people that the whole market can be kept clean and orderly at any time.
“This is a weapons street, but there are also many clothing stores, silk and satin shops, and even places to sell wild animal fur. This street is more than ten miles long.” walking, Mo Ningxiang introduced it to Hong Yu: “There is a restaurant and tea shop Street over there, and there are places where literati go to sell some four treasures of study and things used by scholars. Brothels are on the other side, along both sides of the river. Yingyingyanyan is very busy, especially these days, the world’s No. 1″ Star ” , when the top flower leaders arrive here, they will certainly attract countless people to drive the brothel business. Would you like to see it? It’s newly built, but it’s much more prosperous than the capital. There’s a casino next to the brothel. ”
“Those are not what I like.” Hong Yu waved his hand: “However, the father can’t help but gamble and charge prostitutes, but it’s also a wonderful chess. There is a contradiction between light and darkness in the world. It’s reasonable to exist. Some things you can’t prohibit will backfire. It’s better to take them to the table and put them under the sun, but they can be clean. At least, it’s more reassuring than sneaking business, which can also reduce unstable factors.”
“Yes, at least one tenth of the national taxes are paid by these casinos and brothels. Although the imperial court does not prohibit prostitution gambling, it will never advocate it. If you want to run these businesses, you have to pay sky high taxes every month every year, otherwise it will be illegal business and will be banned. Of course, this is invisible, which gives these industries some restrictions “Jiang lishuo nodded “This is the prosperous situation. Enlightened monarch, look at these people, their faces are full of smiles, and the family is happy. Look at these children, too. They are very happy and innocent. Although we leave que Dongtian, which is a blessed land left by the God of martial arts, we form a chain of our own. In a small foreign country, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Dongtian, who live in a paradise of peach blossoms In ordinary days, I don’t worry about food and drink, but compared with Dahong Chao, it’s too backward. ”
“In this situation, I don’t know how long it will last. Is it a meteor that shines in a flash, or will it last forever?” Hong Yu was worried. He was most afraid of prosperity and decline. At that time, wealth and tranquility will no longer exist, and the world will be in chaos again.
“Today, there is a good quench body pill auction. The reserve price of a pill is 1000 yuan. The top 100 bosses can have the honor to see the pill master open the furnace and refine the pill and see the process of Dan success with their own eyes. Our shop is absolutely innocent.” Banners and signboards were hung outside the door of several auction houses, and several guys shouted at the roadside, holding stacks of paper in their hands. They handed one to everyone: “everyone, don’t miss passing by.”
With their cries, many carriages stopped in the square at the gate of the auction house, and some squires and local tyrants in gorgeous costumes got out of the car and entered, scrambling to be the first.
Quenching the body can not only strengthen the human body, but also expand the Qi and blood. It is a great thing in the eyes of some casual martial arts practitioners. Maybe it is nothing in the eyes of some rich families and royal families. It has been popularized for a long time, but many rich families in Counties and counties still can’t ask for it.
Now the situation of the war against barbarians is becoming more and more clear. The imperial court is ambitious and wants to completely develop the border. All kinds of experts and figures have gathered one after another. Among them, there are some powerful alchemists who are skilled in alchemy and know how to open the furnace to make money. They are also happy to make their success. Many local gentry and local tyrants who come to the border from local places come to the border and compete with each other Buy.
In the Dahong Dynasty, the most powerful people are the descendants of 72 martial gods, who have the blood of ancient martial gods, that is, the descendants of those martial gods in the cave, such as Lique cave. The next is the sage family handed down from the middle ages, people from hundreds of families, with a long history, who have the blood of medieval saints, such as Confucianism, Legalism, Xuanjia, yin-yang family, peasant family, military family and yin-yang family The Yang family, the political strategists, the Taoists… These aristocratic families, after thousands of years, have all appeared saints. In a prominent period, they can even manipulate the rise and fall of the dynasty, abolish the son of heaven, and even look up to the imperial court under their breath, even respectfully, for fear that they will unite to control the state artifact and subvert the rule. They and the three thousand Xuanmen who mess with the ancient times There are also countless relationships between fairies and Taoism.
The second is that there was or is now a family that was introduced to Huawai and became a person of Huawai immortal. Now that person is proud in Huawai Xuanmen, it will naturally lead to the prosperity of the family. No one dares to provoke, occupy one side of the bottom, and there are a lot of talents. Although there is no origin of those medieval aristocratic families, it also has great influence. This is a second-class rich family.
Finally, there are the noble families of the imperial court, such as the aristocratic families of the twelve princes, the iron blood Hou Li family, the Dragon crane Hou long family, the moving mountain Hou Yan Family… And the families of the three princes, generals and cabinet ministers, who have prominent power in the imperial court. Their old families are all over the whole dynasty. Relying on emperor Hong Wutian, although they can’t compare with the hundreds of middle ancient families, they also try to suppress the second-class giants for a while.
Before the Hongwu Dynasty, only a hundred medieval families, or 72 Dongtian, and those who turned to the outside world could enjoy the quenching pill. Now this pill can be purchased by even the lowest local gentry, and even have the opportunity to see the whole process of refining pills with their own eyes.
In Dahong, martial arts experts who are proficient in alchemy and weapon refining are collectively referred to as alchemists. They are often handed down from generation to generation. Their sect views are deep-rooted. They would rather lose their unique knowledge than open a furnace to refine alchemy and tools in front of outsiders. But now, Emperor Hongwu deposed hundreds of schools and respected martial arts alone. All alchemists had to be suppressed, and their identity could not be recognized at all. Even the “Fang Xiandao”, which originated in ancient times and is known as the double greatest way of refining utensils and pills, was recruited by Emperor Hongwu and reorganized into the divine Engineering Institute to carry out various research and develop various novel pills and instruments.
Even, the court ordered that the alchemy trade union and the tool refining trade union be formed, and various classics be taken out for the interested martial artists to learn and figure out. When they have achieved their studies, they can even enter these two trade unions for assessment, or become an alchemy master or a tool refiner. There are many grades, and the best of them can choose to enter the divine engineering academy to become a great craftsman and a virtuous craftsman, Even a holy craftsman
Hong Yu calmed down and thought carefully about the changes in the world over the years. All this is like a dream and unreal. Many ideas that have never appeared have been put forward, and institutions that have never appeared or even no one dares to think have been established. All these are contributed by Emperor Hong Wu
Emperor Hong Wu, he suddenly appeared without warning. He changed the whole world.
Even if one day, when the heaven comes and Emperor Hongwu disappears, what he has done will be remembered by history and all the people who enjoy it today.
