Kaiyuan Merry

123. Chongyi Square

() Xiulan's father is a member of the "Jinshi Group". Xiulan is 15 years old this year, and she has followed her father to send several posters for Xinke Jinshi.

Xiulan never tires of sending the list post, because when it is sent to the Xinke Jinshi, people will generously reward it, which is a lot of income for her.

Generally, among the more than 20 Jinshi, some of them are scholars who came to Chang'an from other places to take the exam. Many of them live directly in the restaurant in Pingkangfang. However, there are fifteen Jinzhaoyuan, which is like the "Beijing Office" of later generations.

Those who have relatively high energy can live in Jinzuoyuan for free, otherwise they have to pay for their own money to live in a hotel, or some people take the imperial examination and lose their wealth.

Ordinary restaurants in Pingkangfang are at least three-star in later generations, and top brothels like Mudanfang and Rose Square can naturally be regarded as five-star. This analogy shows that the imperial examination is really not that kind of muddy legs The poor can get their hands on it.

The so-called "poor people" are no longer the real poor class, but those who have the opportunity to study, and those who can change their destiny by reading.

Of course, you can choose not to live in Pingkangfang, but that means losing the chance to gain fame and attention.

It is only because the famous performers in Pingkangfang can make "monthly comments" on the scholars they are optimistic about, which is very helpful for the scholars to expand their reputation.

Unless you have the talent of Wang Wei, you can freely write a poem, and it will attract countless geisha spontaneously chasing after you, or you have long been rich and powerful, otherwise you have to accept such rules.

The incomplete imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty were in the final analysis a kind of gambling, and gambling required capital. Many people only saw the scenery of those new scholars, but did not know the suffering behind some of them.

Xiulan thought that this time she would follow her father to send the posters to Pingkangfang, but a group of people passed by Pingkangfang, which made her very curious.

Xiulan was dressed as a servant, with an ordinary appearance, sallow and thin face, she looked like a teenager, she asked her father in a low voice: "Father, where are we going to deliver the post?"

The middle-aged man didn't make a fool of himself: "I went to Chongyifang. The poster we sent this time belonged to that great man."

Xiulan became more and more curious: "Which big shot?"

"Wang Wei, the third in the list, the second in the list." The middle-aged man's tone seemed quite respectful.

In fact, the middle-aged man has even sent the list of champions. Logically speaking, he should have seen the world and would not be excited about a third place in the list. There is also the name of chivalry, which makes many low-level people have a good impression of Wang Weiting.

This is the role of publicity and hype. Many people have never even met Wang Wei, but because of the rumors in the market, they firmly believe that Wang Wei is a very chivalrous person. Sometimes as long as they control public opinion, they can easily Brainwash people.

When Xiulan heard the word "Wang Wei", her heart skipped a beat. Even though she had never seen Wang Wei before, she was very familiar with this name.

The information she knew about Wang Wei was not all obtained from rumors in the market. As a native of Chang'an, although Xiulan's family could only be regarded as on the verge of food and clothing, there was a neighbor who was prosperous because of business. The neighbor's daughter had a good relationship with Xiulan in her early years.

After spending a lot of money to enter the women's college in Nawubenfang, the relationship between the girl and Xiulan gradually became estranged, but she often showed off her sense of superiority in front of Xiulan, how to show her superiority?Of course, it is to brag about which family members he has a good relationship with, or to know some gossip that is only circulated in the upper class.

This girl has boasted many times that she knows Wang Wei very well, and enjoys the attention of ordinary people who are not in touch with this level when she tells the rumors about Wang Wei. In fact, she has never met Wang Wei herself. Wei, it's all heard in women's colleges.

Speaking of which, although the women's college that is close to Taixue and Guozixue has become more and more impetuous, it has become more and more popular with small businessmen or rich peasants. In the feudal era when this class has solidified, a The path for the family to rise is too narrow.

But this women's college, in the eyes of those small businessmen or rich peasants who have no political status, is a fairly good way. Of course, they know the nature of this college. To put it bluntly, the women in these colleges are It's just a prostitute who doesn't have a low status, and her ultimate goal is to marry a rich man as a concubine.

Those oirans who are famous in Chang'an and famous far and wide, don't they end up in the same way?

Maybe if the ancestors burn high incense, they will meet a slut who doesn't care about it, and insist on marrying him as a regular wife. Those fathers who are small businessmen or rich peasants will definitely cry with joy.

In this era of strict and distinct hierarchy, no one would be ashamed to be next to the rich and powerful. Most of the people at the bottom have always laughed at the poor but not at the prostitutes.

For example, everyone in the future knows that the Vanity Fair in the entertainment industry is very dark and dirty, but if an ordinary girl is given the opportunity to become a big star and marry into a wealthy family as a wealthy wife, who would care about some small unspoken rules?

A woman's body is naturally a kind of capital, and a smart woman can always sell it for a good price.

Xiulan hates that girl who always shows off in front of her, but she also yearns for that women's college, but her family doesn't have that much money, so she has no chance to receive education so far, if she didn't follow her father to send her I read the posters a few times, but I am afraid that I don’t know a single character.

Thinking of that annoying guy who can casually recite a few crooked poems, Xiulan felt sour in her heart. Obviously when she was a child, that guy was just a stupid kid who followed her ass...

Xiulan calmed down these chaotic emotions, and began to look forward to this trip to post the list, and she didn't know who the famous Wang Wei was.

Xiulan asked her father curiously again: "I have never been to Chongyifang once, and I don't know what this workshop looks like, dad, do you know?"

The middle-aged man shook his head, but guessed: "Chongyifang is not very famous, it should be a relatively common place, definitely not as good as Fuxingfang, Xiudefang, Changlefang, Sixteen Kingsfang which are next to the imperial palace. That’s where the princes and nobles live.”

These workshops mentioned by middle-aged men are probably like the gathering places of luxury houses such as Beverly Hills in later generations. When these places are mentioned, ordinary people will naturally feel awe and yearning.

Princess Yuzhen's almost fairyland Yuzhen Temple is in Fuxingfang, while the mansion of Wei Zhi's family is in Changlefang. Wang Han, the son of the famous Wang family in Taiyuan, also has real estate in the sixteenth king's house. That's where the princes live.

Among them, the Wei family's mansion in Changlefang is well-known among many ordinary people. As long as you go in and get a layer of gold plating, you will definitely be able to marry a good family when you come out. As for Zhencao?That's a big deal, and only men with unique tastes like that kind of so-called pure young girls.

The group finally entered Chongyifang after being inspected by the Fangdings. Xiulan couldn't help but whispered to her father: "The Fangdings just now seem to be different from those in other Fangdings. It's scary, and they didn't accept them. money……"

The middle-aged man also wiped off his cold sweat. He suddenly discovered that this Chongyi Workshop was really not an ordinary workshop. The fangding, especially the kind of slum-like slums of the later generations, the fangding are like blue-skinned hooligans, just think about the virtues of some urban management in the later generations.

There may be only one reason why these "Fang Ding" don't charge money, that is, they look down on these small money. Middle-aged men can even feel the disdain in the bones of those Fang Ding. It is obvious that these Fang Ding hang out with the nobles. He was so tall that he didn't take little people like them seriously.

The lively group of people became quiet after this incident, because they suddenly realized that they seemed to be a bit out of place with Chongyifang...

This Chongyi Square...is too quiet, and the streets are spacious and clean, not as chaotic as other squares.

Most of the squares are relatively retro houses, covering a large area, far apart from each other, with lush trees in the middle, the whole Chongyi Square is like a quiet garden, which can make people live very comfortably.

"Father, why do I feel that this Chongyi Square is no worse than the legendary ones? Living in such a workshop must be very comfortable."

Xiulan's eyes were full of longing, and her tone was full of envy, but she knew in her heart that maybe she would only have this chance to enter Chongyifang this time in her life.

The middle-aged man didn't say much. It was the first time he knew that Chongyifang looked like this. He suddenly understood that the rumors he heard from the past were very unreliable. Maybe those who spread the rumors, and He was at a similar level, so he didn't know that some very low-key and inconspicuous workshops were the places where the real rich and powerful children lived.

Of course, there must be more than one real estate for the children of the rich and powerful. Maybe Chongyifang is a place specially for the children of the rich and powerful to recuperate. Prepare for a test.

A group of people couldn't let go of their hands and feet because of this rare deserted and quiet atmosphere. Even the people who celebrated those new scholars stopped beating drums and gongs, because they always felt that doing so would destroy this exciting atmosphere. Tranquil atmosphere.
