I, Han Gaozu, actually traveled through Song Gaozong?

Chapter 340 Trafficker
In our Song Dynasty, there was an innovative move that had never been done before.

That is the internal plan of the state capital... Before that, we did not care about the outside of building a city, but the inside was mostly the same. The whole city was divided into several small pieces, some for residence and some for trade. Districts, one of them is called 'Li' and the other is called 'City'; both 'Li' and 'City' are surrounded by high walls, with separate gates, and are managed by officials. The whole city has a curfew.

Needless to say, the benefits of the farm system here are that it is easier to manage. The whole city is like a chessboard, divided into grids. In Liu Bang's words, it is the same as managing cattle and horses. The cattle live in the cattle. In the pen, the horses live in the stables, and the people live in the palace.

It is said in "Warring States Policy": "A city of thousands of feet is like a city of thousands of families facing each other", which refers to the mill system here.

The Song Dynasty was different. After the Tang Dynasty, there were years of war, and few monarchs had the money to build city walls specifically in the city. When the Song Dynasty was founded, the city walls were completely removed, so that the neighborhoods could completely face the streets, and no longer The areas are divided so strictly that businesses can be done along the streets and people can live along the streets.

At this point, most cities in the world have turned to the street system that started in the Song Dynasty.

Let’s go back to Bianjing City. It consists of three parts: the outer city, the inner city and the imperial city. The section from the outer city to the inner city is where the imperial army is stationed, goods are transported by water, buildings are built, and national warehouses are located. Most of them are soldiers. The residents and commoners are all lowly people; the section from the inner city to the imperial city is where various ministries, offices, shops, temples and Taoist temples are located, as well as the residences of dignitaries. Yongfengcang, where the Wang family and his son are located, It's in the southeast corner of the outer city.

Although the prosperity is no longer what it used to be, the good habit of not having a curfew has been preserved in Kaifeng... Everyone's life is hard enough. If they are further restricted from making a living, I don't know how many people will go hungry. And when it comes to For a living, Kaifeng really has everything.

Seeing that although Wang De was ugly, he came out of the Qian family's warehouse, people naturally regarded him as a member of the Qian family. People in the Qian family are all nobles and the God of Wealth. This old yaksha As soon as Wang Qi and others came out, they were surrounded by a large group of people.

Yasha was startled, thinking that his whereabouts had been exposed. After seeing clearly that these people were carrying weapons, he thought that they were scoundrels who came to take advantage of them. He was about to speak out and yell at them, but he heard what these gangsters said. , I just lost my temper.

Someone shouted: "Do you want me to have sex with prostitutes? There are prostitutes from the Qinhuai River, Lin'an Prefecture, Jurchens from Dangxiang, and Kunlun slaves, there are all of them!"

It's really hard to do business these days. It's not that Wang De subconsciously favored him, but he shouted the loudest and most enthusiastically... His attitude reminded him of those flower boats on the West Lake in Lin'an, and Compared to the people in Kaifeng Mansion, those girls deserve to die. One by one, they want to turn their nostrils to the sky. When people arrive, it seems that they are not there to have fun, but to be looked down upon!
Wang Yaksha cleared his throat: "I have something to do, let's talk about it later."

After thinking about it, he handed the man another wad of money and said, "Come back and find me in two days. I'll be right there..."

With one finger, he pointed to Yongfengcang behind him.

The Turtle Man bowed in response and became grateful again. He was really happy. It had been a long time since he had encountered such a generous benefactor.

Wang De tossed out a small amount of money for no reason, which made the people surrounding him even more enthusiastic:
"Would you like to listen to the opera outside? I have just written a book called "Qin Hui" that many noble people like to read!"

Wang Yaksha waved his hand: "If you don't want to listen to the show, get away."

Someone else shouted: "Do you want to go fishing?"

Can you sell fish for money?Wang De looked at him doubtfully, and the man whispered:
"Jinmingchi, Qionglinyuan, and the real Zhao Garden outside the West City. With just a few dollars, you can go in and go fishing."

"Let's live like an emperor, don't we?"

The second half of this sentence was spoken close to Wang Yaksha's ears. Even so, he was startled into a cold sweat. He quickly pushed and hit him to drive this rebellious person away.

This group of people does everything, some are from restaurants, some are selling antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and some are even selling their own daughters... Anyway, after listening to it, I can only imagine that there is really nothing these people can't sell.

When Kaifeng was still there, Wang Yaksha was just a soldier on the sidelines, and he only heard about the city. Now Kaifeng is no longer Kaifeng, but other strange things have appeared, which are also called "Kaifeng". He opened up the world.

On the contrary, there was a person who had not intervened, who seemed a bit out of the ordinary among these people. His name was Wang Yaksha, who had only one eye, and he also noticed him.He signaled to Wang Qi and others, and they quickly drove away the group of dealers. In this way, Wang De just saw the whole picture. This boy looked about twelve or thirteen years old, and he was dressed in rags. He didn't look like a A businessman is like a beggar.

"Hey!" Yasha frowned, this was a scary look he specially put on, "Everyone has something for sale, do you have one for sale?"

The little beggar hesitated: "Yes... no!"

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to run away, but Wang De grabbed him by the collar: "Is this a thief who cares about me? It's so abnormal!"

The little beggar hurriedly begged for mercy: "Master, please forgive me! Master, please forgive me!"

"I have something to sell, and I have something to sell!"

Wang De threw him to the ground: "Speak earlier, I know my own judgment! If you are trying to deceive others, I will definitely make you suffer some punches!"

The little beggar was frightened and frightened, so he managed to squeeze out a smile:
"The official noticed that he was from out of town and was not very familiar with Kaifeng."

"How can you tell? Let me tell you, I am a regular customer! I come here seven or eight times a year!"

The little beggar stuck his head over and looked at him from bottom to top:
"There's no need to lie to me, sir. The bunch of money you just threw out is enough to buy an innocent girl!"

After hearing this, Wang De couldn't help but feel pain in his heart, and then heard this man say:

"You can see that you are from the south. Only girls from the south are so valuable."

Wang De saw through him and became a little impatient: "Just tell me what you are selling, where I come from has nothing to do with you!"

"What I sell is cheap."

"Cheap?"

The little beggar was no longer afraid at this time: "Eat, sleep, have fun and do errands, anything that you can do with a tael of silver if you find me, only [-] coppers are enough!"

Wang De stared at him for a while, and was about to scare him again, when he heard Wang Qi say:

"Are you so powerful? We want to take a walk in the city. Do you know the way?"

The little beggar was even more proud: "You show me the place, and I can take you there with my eyes closed!"

Wang Qi nodded towards Duke Wang, pulled the little beggar over, and whispered two words:
"The Royal Palace."
