Chapter 29 Folk customs open up, looking for business opportunities!
Another day off.
The outer city of Tianjing, Xingyefang!
Xingyefang is one of the [-] square cities in the divine capital. It is located in the west of the outer six cities of Tianjing City. It is a famous commercial square city.
The Fangshi system divides the city of Tianjing into many independent blocks that can be locked. These independent blocks are like chess pieces, spread out densely and conveniently for management.
In Xingyefang, fish and dragons are mixed together, and most of them are places for entertainment. Even in broad daylight, there are many coolly dressed young ladies holding handkerchiefs and giggling at the business travelers.
Those who are a bit bold will smile more cheerfully and proactively when they see such a handsome and extraordinary gentleman as Xu Yan.
Some were waving handkerchiefs, some were throwing handkerchiefs, and a more daring one walked up to Xu Yan gracefully. While he was dumbfounded, he stuffed a piece of silver into his hand, and touched his face again.
"Am I being teased?"
Xu Yan looked at the money in his hand, then touched his own face that was touched, but didn't react for a while.
It's not that he doesn't know that after he has achieved success in martial arts and Taoism, not only his appearance has become more handsome, but his temperament has also become more profound and mysterious, which can be described as "beautiful as a demon".
But walking on the street like this, it was the first time in the past and present life that someone stuffed money and touched his face directly!
I am not clean!
Inexplicably, such an absurd idea appeared in Xu Yan's mind, and then he looked around with a little scalp numbness, and saw many women in cool clothes looking at him like a wolf, with eyes showing Look eager to try.
Obviously, in the eyes of these shy women, it is worth the money if they can satisfy their desires with a little money.
Xu Yan: "..."
He took a step back silently, and threw the silver at the feet of the woman in front.
Inexplicably, these women seemed to have forgotten what they were doing just now, and they all left happily.
This is not Taoism.
It's a pure use of mental power, just like hypnosis and ecstasy!
However, even so, Xu Yan felt a great deal of difficulty.
[-]% of the power, even half of it has not been exerted.
The only advantage is that without the use of mana and out of body, it will not cause the golden dragon of luck to bite back.
"I work hard on the common people. It's really open to the people."
After thinking about it for a long time, Xu Yan can only use four words to describe it: "folk customs and openness".
Because through his observations after traveling for half a year, he had to admit that it didn't matter much to the ordinary people, especially the upper-class nobles, when it comes to men and women.
There is no so-called "three cardinal guides and five permanent principles", nor is there any emphasis on "men dominate outside and women dominate inside", and there is no such thing as "the harem should not interfere in politics".
Compared with the Sui and Tang dynasties in history, its style is even worse than that.
This thing sounds a bit unbelievable.
But thinking that this world has not been poisoned by Confucianism, even scholars cannot occupy the mainstream.
It is not incomprehensible that the folk customs of men and women are open.
After all, in the history of Blue Star in Xu Yan's previous life, and in the Qin and Han Dynasties before Dong Zhongshu proposed to "abolish a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism", the status of women was really not comparable to that of women in later dynasties.
Figured this out.
Xu Yan couldn't help laughing, the blood in his body surged, and a heroic masculinity that belonged to warriors flourished.
Although there is no change in appearance, the temperament on the body is completely different, as if a different person, no longer the feeling of "beautiful as a demon" before.
Such a temperament, although it is still uncommon, will not attract the fascination of passing women.
Xu Yan's visit to Xingyefang this time is not because he is bored, just to go shopping and see young ladies.
It was after listening to Xiao Lin's narration of the Son of Heaven's Xunshou Ceremony, that his interest suddenly arose.
He is not interested in the Tianzi Xunshou Ceremony and the Tianjiao competition of all races.
Because he is a kind-hearted person who is afraid of trouble, he doesn't like to rush others, and he doesn't like to fight.
However, after listening to Xiao Lin's narration about the Son of Heaven's Xunshou Ceremony, he became very interested in Tianjing City at this time.
According to Xiao Lin's narration, during the celebration of Emperor Dagan's Xunshou birthday, small countries from all over the world came to court, and foreign races from all over the world came to congratulate him.
Such a lively scene is rare in ten years.
If you miss this opportunity, you may have to wait for the next ten years.
In particular, on the occasion of the Son of Heaven's birthday, there are also a large number of overseas and foreign caravans with envoys from various overseas small countries and foreign races. They take advantage of this rare opportunity to come here with local specialties and treasures for currency trade.
If you have the heart, you will definitely be able to buy a lot of good things that are rarely seen on weekdays.
After hearing this, Xu Yan felt that it made a lot of sense.
In addition, the money in his hand has already been spent, and he needs to find a way to make money, so he thought of visiting the market in the outer city commercial area of Tianjing City during the celebration of the Son of Heaven's Xunshou, to see what is being sold. Can make a little money.
That's right, it's small money!
literal meaning.
Xu Yan never thought about setting up a firm, making it bigger and stronger, making money every day, and so on.
Because the Daqian Dynasty was not a troubled time.
This world is not a world where money can settle everything.
In this world, power, family background, and force are the root of everything.
Unscrupulously showing one's own financial resources, but without the strength to protect it, will suffer a big loss sooner or later.
Moreover.
If you really want to open a commercial firm to become bigger and stronger, do you want to compete with the God of Fortune Pavilion supported by the Nine Heavens Court, or do you want to compete with the Dagan Commercial Firm supported by the Dagan court?
In addition, there are various powerful families, powerful immortals, Fengdu ghost market, court predators and so on.
Once being targeted by these people, even if Xu Yan has the combat power of a martial artist, he still can't bear it.
So, after much deliberation, Xu Yan decided to keep a low profile and do some small business to earn a little money, as long as it can meet his current cultivation needs.
"However, having said that, I am so handsome, why doesn't a rich woman take a fancy to me?"
"If I really want to marry a rich woman and go home, I don't have to work so hard and struggle."
Xu Yan sighed in his heart, and made up his mind that after the Son of Heaven's birthday celebration was over, he would go to expand his social circle, maybe he would be spotted by some rich woman, so he didn't have to work so hard.
As he thought like this, the man walked aimlessly in Xingyefang, constantly looking at the various shops in the market and the products on the roadside stalls, thinking about his own way to make money.
However, he did not wait for him to find a business opportunity.
A domineering martial arts will like the scorching sun appeared in Xingyefang, not far from him.
Qi and blood are like wolf smoke, spirit is like a great sun, and Huang Huang suppresses evil spirits!
Xu Yan's spirit was shaken, and when he heard the commotion, he flew straight up, climbed onto the eaves of the restaurant on the side of the street, and looked in the direction of the rising martial arts will.
