Are you addicted to fairy? Just give it a try!

Yundu, the heart of Yun Kingdom. The dream of countless young scholars is an ideal place to display their talents and ambitions.

It is located on the bank of Yunmeng Daze. With Yunmeng Daze, half of the counties in Yun State can reach this city by water transportation through the tributaries extending from Yunmeng Daze.

Convenient transportation has created the prosperity here. The pier is full of merchant ships and passenger ships. The constant chattering sounds made Zhang Wei, who was leaning on the side of the boat, feel like he was watching a real-life version of Riverside Scene during the Qingming Festival.

Three months have passed since the incident in Blackwater Town. He relied on him to solve the problem of the obscene priest and drown alive Cai Xiangu and the heads of the three major families. After his good brother Zhang Xiong spared no effort in running. His reputation as Zhang Wei resounded throughout Luyang County once again.

And this time it’s Xian Ming.

Thanks to this trend, Zhang Hui also recorded his name on this year's list of Gongsheng students. Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, it was eventually resolved.

Zhang Wei took a boat ride after Zhang Hui inspected the eight counties of Luyang and took the official waterway to Yundu City.

"How about it?"

At this time, an old voice came from the cabin, interrupting Zhang Wei's thoughts.

Zhang Wei looked back and saw his third uncle Zhang Huizheng walking over with a tired look on his face.

Obviously, the bumpy water for several days still made him, an old man over 50 years old, feel unable to do what he wanted. But with Zhang Wei watching, nothing big happened.

Seeing his third uncle asking him, Zhang Wei also answered honestly: "Although I haven't been here for several years, nothing has changed in Yundu."

Zhang Hui was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, you kid, you are so angry after not seeing me for a few years. Do you know how many people are living in Yundu now? Let me tell you!"

Zhang Hui stretched out his hand, pinched his index finger, middle finger and thumb together, and said solemnly: "Seven hundred thousand people! There are fully seven hundred thousand people registered! This does not include the farmers in the farms and villages outside the city! Conservative estimates, the entire The population within Yundu is as large as a county!"

Seven hundred thousand people, this number is already considered the limit for a capital city of a feudal dynasty. No wonder Zhang Hui would be so solemn. Not to mention that there are many dignitaries and their families in Yundu City, so the difficulty of governance is not ordinary.

Zhang Wei appropriately showed a shocked expression, which made Zhang Hui nod with satisfaction. Then he started preaching to Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei kept saying yes on the surface, but in his heart he was unconvinced by what his third uncle Zhang Hui said. After all, as someone who has experienced modern society, he has seen and lived in modern metropolises with tens of millions of people. The capital of a feudal dynasty with thousands of people still couldn't catch his eye.

And at this moment, his heart is no longer in this mere Yundu, but next to Yundu, deep in the Yunmeng Daze that stretches thousands of miles, a mysterious place that is shrouded in mist all year round!

Yunshangfang City is right there!

But now is not the time to enter Fang City. He must settle down in Yundu with his third uncle.

At this time, the third uncle Zhang Hui was still preaching.

He was told to keep a low profile after coming to Yundu, and not to come forward no matter what happened, so as not to offend those meritorious disciples.

Zhang Hui was not worried that his nephew would be wronged, but that his nephew would accidentally beat someone to death.

Ever since Zhang Wei dragged the body of a big loach back to make soup for them, Zhang Hui knew that his nephew was not a simple man.

But unfortunately, although his knowledge is broad, it is still limited to the mortal world, and his understanding of the world of immortality is really limited.

As an ordinary person, he could tell that the loach was a monster, but he didn't know its specific strength. He just thought it was a monster that had just transformed.

It is possible for some martial arts masters to deal with monsters of that level. Therefore, Zhang Hui was not sure for a while about what was going on with his nephew.

But no matter what, his nephew's strength is worthy of recognition.

I'm afraid that the family generals and generals accompanying those idiots are not enough to give my nephew a slap in the face. It would be fine if it was just a simple injury. As the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, I am still a bit thin-faced in Yundu.

If Zhang Wei couldn't control his strength and accidentally beat someone to death, that would be great fun!

"There are so many high-ranking officials and nobles in Yundu. Among them, these are the ones that need special attention. Ding Guo Gong and Zhen Guo Gong are the representatives of noble families. All the Dukes of the past dynasties have participated in the military. The reputation in the military is very high, and the relationship between these noble families is very complicated. In addition, the children of noble families behave erratically, so don't conflict with them!

There is also Zhen Yunlong, Minister of the Ministry of Industry. It is said that this person is related to the legendary Yunshang Immortal Sect. Today, the emperor will give him three points of thin noodles. However, this person usually lives in seclusion, so you probably won't be able to run into him.

besides……"

Speaking of this, Zhang Hui's expression was a little awkward, looking unlucky. But he still said to Zhang Wei: "You should also pay attention to the Yang family where Concubine Yang lives! In recent years, the Yang family has been arrogant and domineering, relying on the Holy Emperor's favor for Concubine Yang.

There was even an example in which the Yang family relied on their favor and slapped Princess Hongxia in the street, and the other party sued her to the Jinluan Palace, but nothing happened! Therefore, even those noble families are not willing to provoke these successful villains. "

Zhang Wei raised his eyebrows when he heard this. A concubine named Yang who was favored by the emperor had an arrogant and domineering family at home. This was a bit of a déjà vu, especially in this era, which was still called the "prosperous age".

If the royal family of Yun State was not surnamed Luo instead of Li, Zhang Wei would have suspected that he was holding a copy of Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan in another world.

"Nephew understands." Zhang Wei responded.

Zhang Hui nodded and continued, "Well... Of course, we don't cause trouble, but we are not afraid of it. If someone really troubles you..."

At this point, Zhang Hui lowered his voice, looked around and said, "As long as they are not beaten to death or disabled, it would be great to teach them a lesson."

"Understood."

Zhang Wei felt relieved when he heard this. He looked at Zhang Hui and the two little foxes, one big and one small, smiled silently.

After the boat docked at the pier, the two uncles and nephews got off the boat and sat on the sedan chair that had been prepared by their family, and went straight to Zhang Hui's home in Yundu.

As the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, although Zhang Hui is still not a member of the core power layer of Yundu, he is also one of the top leaders, especially in the Ministry of Personnel, a powerful department.

So Zhang Hui's mansion is still very large, and the location in Yundu is also good. Judging from the neatly laid bluestone tiles, the century-old trees planted on both sides, and the tall gates on both sides of the street, the place where Zhang Hui lives in Yundu is basically Chang'an Street in Zhang Wei's previous life.

In the sedan chair, Zhang Hui introduced Zhang Wei to the owners of the houses on this street.

"This is the home of Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, and this is the Rongguo Mansion. They are of the same lineage as the Ningguo Duke. Unfortunately, the family has declined now, and they live on the old capital of their ancestors."

"Third uncle, is the Rongguo Mansion surnamed Jia? Is there a person born with a jade in his mouth? Or did anyone in his family marry a salt inspector surnamed Lin?" Zhang Wei couldn't help interrupting again.

Zhang Hui looked at his nephew with strange behavior and said, "There are people who are born with jade in their mouths, but there is no salt inspector surnamed Lin in Yunguo."

"Besides, being born with jade in their mouths is just a gimmick created by Rongguo Mansion. It was quite a fuss at the beginning, but after waiting for so long, not even an immortal came to his house to take away the auspicious child born with jade in his mouth. Otherwise, Rongguo Mansion would still be in such a half-dead state? And the Rongguogong line is not surnamed Jia, they are surnamed Zhou!"

"Is that so..." Zhang Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Hui asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you? You looked itchy when I was talking to you just now."

"Nothing, nothing..."

Zhang Wei smiled awkwardly and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He almost thought he had traveled to a hodgepodge world just now. Now it seems that it is just a common feature of feudal dynasties.

Sure enough, there is nothing new under the sun.

"Master, we are here."

At this time, the sedan stopped and the voice of the housekeeper came from outside.

"Go down, I don't know what you're thinking, you don't live here with me, go find a place for yourself. Don't you know it's not easy to live in Yundu?" Zhang Hui walked out of the sedan and complained.

Zhang Wei smiled and said, "I'm the nephew of the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and I'm a tribute student who just entered the Imperial College. If those censors who like to make up stories see me running to your house every day, they may report you for favoritism and corruption. Although we are upright, this is disgusting.

And Uncle San, I have some small treasury in the past few years. I can live comfortably in Yundu!" Zhang Wei patted his purse and said.

Zhang Hui glanced at Zhang Wei and said, "Did you earn the royalties from those disgusting books you wrote?"

"Ahem..."

Zhang Wei almost couldn't breathe in one breath, and was choked by his own saliva.

It's so embarrassing to be caught by parents for writing pornographic novels.

Seeing his nephew's frustrated look, Zhang Hui's cold face showed a smile, and his mood became much better.

At this moment, a team of people carried a luxurious sedan chair in front of the Zhang Mansion, and there were eight sedan bearers alone! It was a real eight-man sedan chair.

You should know that Zhang Hui was a second-rank official, and his sedan chair was only carried by four people.

The person in the sedan seemed to know Zhang Hui and immediately asked him to stop. Then he lifted the side curtain and asked, "Is it Minister Zhang?"

Zhang Hui turned his head and immediately bowed to the person in the sedan and greeted, "Is the Fifth Prince healthy?"

The Fifth Prince was a middle-aged man with a dignified face, but he gave people a gentle and approachable feeling. Seeing that he did not recognize the wrong person, he immediately smiled and asked, "It's quite a coincidence. Did Minister Zhang just return to Beijing after inspecting the east? Eh? This is..."

The Fifth Prince said halfway and looked at Zhang Wei standing next to him.

He was young and handsome, with an upright posture, and very eye-catching.

Zhang Hui smiled and explained, "This is my nephew Zhang Wei, Zhang Zijie, who came to Yundu to study. Zijie, this is the fifth prince."

"Fifth prince."

Zhang Wei made a literary gesture to the fifth prince.

The fifth prince's eyes lit up when he heard this, and asked, "But the Zhang Wei, Zhang Zijie, who managed the river? "Ode to the Goose" was also written by you? That is a famous piece of literature."

"Fifth prince, you are too kind." Zhang Wei smiled without being humble.

The fifth prince smiled and said, "Hahaha, Zijie, you are too modest. I have known you for a long time. Today, I see that you are indeed extraordinary. You are really a hero in your youth! I wonder if you can come to my house to have a chat when you are free?"

Zhang Hui frowned slightly when he heard this. He was about to wink at his nephew when he heard Zhang Wei say: "Thank you for your kindness, but I have just arrived in Kyoto and haven't settled in yet. I have to report to the Imperial College tomorrow, so I really don't have time, so I'm sorry. ”

The fifth prince looked disappointed, but he didn't seem to take it too seriously and said, "That's it, that's fine. Yundu is a great place. I hope you have a good time, Zijie."

The uncle and nephew watched the fifth prince leave, and Zhang Wei looked at Zhang Hui and asked, "Third uncle..."

Zhang Hui said bluntly: "If these princes come to invite you in the future, don't go if you can! If you get involved in this imperial power struggle, even if I fight with my life, I won't be able to save our Zhang family!"

Zhang Wei nodded, but still said: "Well... But Third Uncle, when you are in your position, you can no longer protect yourself wisely."

Zhang Hui's face was suffocated, and then he smiled bitterly and said: "How could I not know? But compared with the ruin of the family, losing his official position and being expelled from Yundu is nothing."

"Zijie, you have to remember one thing. If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood! Compared to my entire Zhang family, my personal political career is nothing."

"My nephew understands!"

…

After a short night's rest at the third uncle's house, Zhang Wei took Zhang Da, who was accompanying him, to Yaxing in Yundu the next day.

As soon as he walked into the dental shop, Zhang Wei's appearance in silk and satin immediately caught the attention of the dentists. He just had to put the label of a big customer on his forehead.

"This guest officer, what are your orders?"

At this time, a fast-moving Yaman came up one step ahead of others.

Zhang Weiyan said concisely and concisely: "Buy a house."

Yaren smiled and led Zhang Wei to the counter. He took a brochure from the counter lady and said, "Look, sir, these are all the houses for sale in Nancheng. All of them are..."

Zhang Wei interrupted: "I don't want the Southern District."

Yaren: "Huh?"

A look of disappointment visible to the naked eye appeared on his face.

The layout of Yundu City is due to its proximity to Yunmeng Daze. For example, Dongcheng District, which is close to Yunmeng Daze, is mainly engaged in commercial transit. The people living here are basically traders from all over the world, as well as stevedores and fishermen who make a living on the docks.

The environment and public security are poor. This is the consensus of the people in Yundu, but the corresponding housing prices are also cheap.

The southern district has always been a gathering place for dignitaries due to its good lighting and high terrain. But the housing prices there are also the highest. It is conservatively estimated that housing prices are dozens of times more expensive than those in other urban areas.

But there is no way, Ya Ren has no status, especially for a person like Zhang Wei, if this Ya Ren dares to be like the intermediary in urban novels, he will sneer at him and lower his attitude. Without him taking action, the tooth manager at the Yaxing next to him would have to beat him up and throw him out.

So Yaren quickly put away the disappointment on his face, and continued to diligently take out another booklet, opened it and showed it to Zhang Wei.

"Look, sir, this is the best courtyard in the East District. It has three entrances and three exits. It's in a good location. It's far away from the fishing shops and piers, and it's also clean..."

Zhang Wei asked: "Is there a river next to it?"

"Uh... Sir, if you want a house near the river, I have one here too." Yaren turned another page and said: "This house is not bad. It also has a courtyard with three entrances and three exits, and the backyard is next to it. A river is convenient for cleaning up any kind of garbage.”

Zhang Wei frowned and said, "Is there a clean river?"

"Yes, yes!"

Yaren was in a hurry again, and after more than a dozen selections, Zhang Wei finally settled on a mansion on the edge of the East District. Then let Yaren take him there.

I wandered around the yard, maybe because it wasn’t too long before the previous family moved out, so the yard still had a bit of popularity and didn’t look deserted.

There is an old tree in the yard and a stone well.

However, Zhang Wei used the opportunity-seeking technique to see that the tree and the well were just ordinary trees and wells. There are no signs of demonization or Sadako's kind.

The most important thing to Zhang Wei is the river behind the yard.

The speed of the water is not bad, even faster than the small river in Qingyun Xiaozhu. Once the water wheel and generator are installed, Zhang Wei's cultivation in the later stage of Qi refining can basically be guaranteed.

Zhang Wei asked: "How much?"

Yaren smiled and held out five fingers.

"Fifty taels."

"Fifty taels, grab the money!" Before Zhang Wei could say anything, Zhang Da shouted immediately.

Fifty taels of silver, the second master of his family had spent less than fifty taels on building Qingyun Xiaozhu. This was because he had to build a house in the mountains and forests outside the city.

How dare you ask for fifty taels for the house in front of you, which is less than two-thirds the size of Qingyun Xiaozhu? Still in the East District, what else is it but a money grab?

"You don't know something about this guest. It's not easy to live in Yundu."

Yaren said with a bitter face: "Everything in Yundu is very expensive. Now most people still rent a house, and some even just build a shed. If you encounter a local snake, you have to pay tribute every month to ensure it." I have a shelter from the wind and rain.”

"I'm just a fan, and this housing price is simply out of my control."

Zhang Da wanted to say something else, but Zhang Wei said: "Okay, Zhang Da pays."

Zhang Wei, who had seen the chaos in the real estate industry in his previous life, was not surprised. On the contrary, he felt that the price was already very cheap.

After all, when he traveled back in time, how many people worked hard for a year and only earned a toilet in the magic city.

“Wealth, friends, Dharma, and land… land in the secular world is so expensive, how much would land in the immortal world cost?” Zhang Wei sighed.
