Because Xia Shihuang once considered Chang'an as the capital city, the Ministry of Industry planned the layout of Chang'an City during this period, and began to build the imperial city early, and various central officials also bought houses nearby, so that although Chang'an was not the capital in the end, the city of Chang'an The scale and prosperity are not inferior to Kyoto.

It is also very simple to mention the reason why Xia Shihuang finally chose Kyoto-Bei Mang.

At that time, there were three choices before Xia Shihuang, Jinling, Chang'an, and Kyoto.

At that time, Great Xia was not yet stable, Nanman had bad intentions in the south, Beimang was eager to fight in the north, Chang'an was inconvenient, and it was difficult to take care of both sides. Between Jinling and Kyoto, Xia Shihuang chose Kyoto.

Without him, although Chang'an is good, due to the terrain, the available area for living in Guanzhong is limited, and there is often insufficient rainfall every year, resulting in drought and famine; Therefore, it is difficult to produce good horses in Jinling, which is not conducive to the development of cavalry, and the cavalry in Beimang is the best; finally, the location of Kyoto is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the water transportation is convenient.

But it is generally accepted that the reason why Xia Shihuang finally chose Kyoto was to deter Beimang.

Don't you want to fight?

I am here, as long as you dare to come, don't even think about going back.

It's just that a hero like Xia Shihuang couldn't have imagined that the Great Xia would be so disintegrated in a few hundred years, the emperor existed in name only, and the princes of all walks of life almost had their thoughts written on their faces.

There are more heroes who think that they can also get a piece of the troubled times in the future. They are recruiting talents from the people, accumulating strength, and waiting for an opportunity to become kings on their own.

Bei Mang was very happy to see this, and said: I will not interfere, you continue.

After hundreds of years of baptism, the city wall of Chang'an is light blue, and a group of people entering the city stands under the two-foot-high wall.

This time, Wen Yu was leading the city through the Dijiao Road, and entered the city through the Anhua Gate under the watchful eyes of the guards.

Judging from the clothes of the people queuing up, they have not been affected by the war and famine. All kinds of people and horses and horses are full of goods, and the owners of the goods look forward to it, hoping that this trip can earn huge profits.

After entering the city gate, there is a straight north-south street with a width of more than ten feet, enough to run multiple carriages side by side.

Wen Yu obviously found the difference between Chang'an City and Yanmen City. Every road in Chang'an City is straight and straight. Through the spread of spiritual consciousness, looking down from a high place, the layout of Chang'an City is divided into "Chang'an City" by the spacious and criss-crossing streets. In the shape of "well", there are square markets of different sizes located in it.

It is very similar to the layout of the mortal kingdom in the realm of comprehension, giving Wen Yu a feeling of returning to the realm of comprehension.

On the back of the city gate stood a large board, on which half of the map posted the locations of famous shops in Chang'an City, and the other half of the board were various announcements and anecdotes in the city.

The latest inkblot is not dry yet, the content is that a lot of refugees gathered outside the city, and they all said that a fairy appeared in the world last night.

Looking at the announcement, Wen Yu implicitly stated that the refugees outside the city had some mental problems, so everyone shouldn't believe it, and couldn't help but raise their lips. The county magistrate of Chang'an City is a bit interesting.

Unlike Yanmen City, where there are long hawker stalls at the city gate, Wen Yu can ask Wen Yu which grain shop is better. Wen Yu can only find this time's destination - West Market according to the markings on the map.

From the labels given, it can be clearly seen that the busiest places in Chang'an City are in the east and west cities. The east market sells mostly gold, silver, porcelain and rare antiques, while the west market sells more daily necessities, which are closer to life.

After choosing the right direction, Wen Yu controlled the normal speed to go to the West Market. There are road signs at the entrance of each alley, indicating the name and the buildings ahead. Even without using spiritual power and consciousness, Wen Yu can easily find the location of the West Market.

This time the main purchase was food.

Because of the newcomers, under Xu Laoer's explanation, each family issued some tasks as appropriate, allowing the new refugees to work in exchange for food, which caused a shortage of food that could have been eaten in King An's territory.

In particular, they plan to stay outside Chang'an City for a longer period of time.

Before Wen Yu entered the city, Xu Lao Er and Wei Jin had brought more than 600 people back along the way they came from, retreated to the mountains and forests, and looked for a place to station.

Now there are a large number of people in the team, which is especially obvious on the flat terrain. As long as you look closely on the official road, you can find this group of deserters who are acting strangely and not like deserters.

It is said to be the West Market, but it is actually an enlarged version of the square. There is a gatehouse at the main entrance, and a huge plaque hangs on it, and the inscription "No. [-] City in the World" looks very impressive.

Wen Yu looked up at the handwriting a few times, flamboyant and full of meaning, worthy of being called everyone.

The West Market is surrounded by walls, and inside there are cross-streets. The roads are spacious, pedestrians flock in an endless stream, and hawkers yelling and shouting can be heard endlessly.

Divided into inner and outer parts, the inner market mainly sells valuables, gold and silver jewelry, silk fabrics, and the outer market mainly sells grain, cloth, medicinal materials, spices, etc.In contrast, the outer city is more lively.

Wen Yu didn't bring Xiaobai this time. He was very lethargic after recovering from inducing air into his body recently. As long as he finds him, he can find the place with the best sunlight.

Thinking about Xiaobai's favorite food habits, the first thing Wen Yu looked at after entering was various food stalls.

Steamed buns, meat skewers, yogurt cheese, candied fruit.
Wen Yu weighed his purse and bought one copy of each item. After thinking about it, he bought five more copies each and distributed them to the Xu family's children.

The location of the grain store is very conspicuous, just a few dozen steps away from the entrance of the West Market, and the golden plaque is dazzling in the sun.

Su's Grain Store.

As soon as Wen Yu entered the store, a waiter came up enthusiastically and asked, "Does the girl buy food?"

After Wen Yu nodded, the clerk said more enthusiastically: "Old rice costs 140 Wen per bucket, new rice costs 175 Wen per bucket, beans cost 20 Wen per bucket, and millet costs 19 Wen per bucket."

Hearing the price, Wen Yu's eyes moved slightly, it was even cheaper than Yanmen City.

However, it is also understandable if you think about it. Chang'an City is far away from the border area between King Ning and King Qi, and has never experienced drought and famine. The increase in food prices is not as great as Yanmen City.

But not so low.

The clerk saw a lot of guests coming from south to north, and seeing that Wen Yu's clothes didn't look like locals, he immediately sensed Wen Yu's thoughts, and explained: "The girl is surprised that the price is cheap, this is our young master's decision, he sympathizes with the people's lives It’s bitter, and I specifically asked all Su’s grain stores to lower the price.”

"If you go to other places to buy food, the price will be much more expensive."

The man's words answered Wen Yu's doubts. She said frankly, "I'm really surprised at the low price, but I want to buy a lot. Can your family sell it to me at this price?"

"The girl underestimated our Su's Grain Store. Who in Chang'an City doesn't know that the Su family is the richest in Liangzhou, and they never trade at a loss."

The clerk led Wen Yu to sit down in the store and brought a pot of tea.

"As long as the girl asks, we can sell as much grain as we want, at this price."

Wen Yu nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Su family.

She repeated it in her heart, wondering if they could get in touch with the monks in this world.
