(to the apex.)

Entering Moling Lake and getting off the boat, you can enter the city from the East City Gate Dongping Gate, and also enter the city from the Moling Lake Wumiao Water Gate, there is a waterway connected with the Longzangpu in the city.

Lin bound them into the city through the Wumiao Water Gate, and the ship sailed into Longzangpu.

Zhao Hu and Liu Yue'er both came to Jiangning City for the first time, and they were a little dumbfounded by the prosperity of Jiangning in front of them.

"Obediently, I thought that Shanglin was the most prosperous place in the world, but I don't know how many Shanglin Lili were installed in Jiangning City?" Compared with before leaving the post house, Liu Yue'er was more lively as if she had let go of a matter on her mind, and when she opened her eyes and looked at the prosperity and confusion in front of her, she was surprised and surprised.

Zhou Pu, Zhao Hu, and Chen Enze sat on the bow of the boat at will, their feet hanging down, Xiaoman was afraid of falling into the water, far away from the side of the ship, Lin Tie stood with his hands in his hands, looking at this city that was not as prosperous as Yanjing, and had an illusion of being involved in history and being insignificant.

Longzangpu where the boat line is also the famous Qinhuai River after a thousand years, even if the Longzangpu at this time has not been renamed Qinhuai River, there is also the scenery of Qinhuai ** in later generations, the coastal brothel music house restaurant tea shop and ordinary houses are lined up one after another, the shore arcade is biting one by one, far away can not see the end, the water stone street is full of people, the clothes are red and green, and the white water gray wall crimson courtyard reflects each other. It is on the water surface of Longzangpu, the boat series is vertical and horizontal, there are Wupeng light boats, there are painted boats with boats like Yu, there are pointed merchant ships whose sides can be on the water, there are ships that transport grain, there are ships that transport paint, tung oil, and silk cloth, there are passenger ships that only carry into the city, and there are also pleasure boats that purely travel around Longzangpu, which crowd the water surface of more than 20 zhang wide, and it is really a hundred times more prosperous than Shanglindu.

Lin Tie they set off from Kuabu early in the morning, crossed the sky, and it was already afternoon when they entered the city, and some wanderers in Jiangning City began to come out to have fun, and occasionally there were passing painting boats and pleasure boats, and the wisps of silk and bamboo singing were curling in the noise of the city.

Lin Tie got off the boat at the dock in front of the Tianhan Bridge, loaded all the bags and packages into the carriage, Liu Yue'er also got in, Zhao Hu sat in front of the car and drove, Lin Tie also sat in the front of the car, Xiaoman lifted the curtain of the car, pointed out the road to Zhao Hu, Zhou Pu and Chen Size rode horses and each led a horse to follow behind the carriage.

Liu Yue'er was still thinking about where they would stay on the first day in Jiangning with Lin Tie, when she felt that the carriage had stopped, and she was surprised to look to see what was going on, and saw a young woman jumping into the carriage with her hands and feet, and heard Xiaoman greet the woman: "Sister Feng, why are you here?" ”

"Miss guessed you should go into the city, let me wait for you on the street first, she wants to come, but it's inconvenient"

Liu Yue'er saw that this woman had a beautiful face and a servant woman dressed up, and only thought that she was going to sit in the carriage, so she smiled at her. The woman glanced at her and didn't say anything, just sat down at the door of the car, but Liu Yue'er inadvertently saw from her collar that there was a dark red mark at the base of her neck, which was as white as snow jade, like a scar. She only thought that she was dazzled, this woman looked upright and beautiful, how could there be a scar on her neck? You won't abuse your husband's family, will you? She didn't know that the woman at the door of the carriage was Feng Peipei, the famous female horse thief and the fourth lady of Huaishang.

When Su Mei returned to Jiangning, she looked forward to Lin Tie coming over and being dependent, and she asked Feng Peipei to choose a good house for Lin Tie and them a long time ago.

The house is behind the dustpan alley, and there is a family in the middle of Su Mei's apartment in the dustpan alley. The original owner of the house was in ruins when he did business in Jiangning, and he took the house in the city to a pawn shop and hid back in the countryside.

Afraid of leaving the beads and horses' feet, Su Mei did not rush to settle the house, but waited for Lin Jian to enter the city, and asked Feng Peipei to lead them to the pawnshop to pawn the house and buy it. The house has passed its expiration date, and the pawn shop can dispose of it on its own, without worrying that the original owner will run back to redeem the house after living in it.

The fourth lady sat at the door of the carriage, took out a small brocade bag from her arms and handed it to Lin Bin: "Miss asked me to give this to you."

Lin Lian took it and opened it to take a look, but it was a few pieces of gold, and said to the fourth lady Feng Peipei with a smile: "We brought some silver on our bodies."

The official price of gold and silver is one to ten, but in fact, when trading, a tael of gold with sufficient fineness can only be negotiated to nine taels of silver. The gold presses the hand, don't look at those few pieces of gold, they are almost worth more than three hundred taels of silver. Liu Yue'er leaned against the wall of the carriage, her eyes also looked at the few gold bills in Lin Ju's hand, thinking that this Lin Juren is really powerful, as soon as she arrived in Jiangning City, a rich lady ran over and pasted it upside down, and as soon as she made a move, she gave away such a large sum of money, why did everyone in Shiliang County say that he was a useless sour showman? She had been thinking about Xiaoman's identity yesterday, but at this time she figured it out, it turned out to be the personal maid of the rich lady.

Liu Yue'er's newly widowed person, although she became a widow after ten days of marriage, but the neighbors have regarded her as a woman since then. After listening to it a lot, Liu Yue'er also knew that those young ladies in Shiliang County were afraid that they would not be able to catch their lover's heart when they had a tryst with their lover, and they were afraid that they would lose their virginity and abandon them in the future, so someone asked the maid to satisfy their lover first instead of herself. She thought in her heart that Lin Jian was really a good fate, a rich lady took a fancy to him, and she also sent her personal maid over to warm his bed first.

Liu Yue'er sat against the wall of the carriage, looking at Lin Ju's eyes and looking at the bag of gold bills in his hand, thinking that Lin Juren should always have some ambition and not spend women's money. Lin Lian said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "To buy an ordinary house, you need such gold?" Although he said this, Liu Yue'er did not expect, and re-wrapped the gold coin in his hand and put it in his arms, a little bit of excuse.

Liu Yue'er was slightly stunned when she saw it, wondering if it was the right decision to come over and be a cook for Lin Juren, but it would be more difficult to stay in the Gu family, so she could only sigh silently in her heart.

At this time, Longzangpu turned a corner, and the stone street on the riverside also turned a corner, only to see a magnificent and towering heavy building lying across the river, compared with the bungalows on the side, the high-rise building was almost five or six zhang high, and it was more majestic and magnificent than the city tower on the water gate of Wumiao that they saw when they entered the city.

Where had Liu Yue'er seen such a towering building in Shiliang County, as if she was dazzled by the prosperity of Jiangning, and asked Xiaoman with her mouth half-open: "Which family is that, which palace in Jiangning City?" ”

"Where is the palace?" Lin Lian came back and said with a smile, "Crossing the river is Donghuamen Street, and that building is the mansion where Liang Yuan sings and dances, and wine is like a knife to relieve sorrow." This mansion is the same as your family's business in Shiliang County, a tea hotel, but on a slightly larger scale."

"A little bigger, huh?" Liu Yue'er covered her lips and chuckled, "It's not just a little bigger."

Thousands of years later, the skyscrapers may not be able to surprise the world, but the first of the 36 main stores in Jiangning rises from the ground in the surrounding low-rise bungalow buildings, and the heavy buildings created by "four floors high and five floors connected to each other" appear unusually majestic.

This feudal building is naturally not an ordinary restaurant, this dynasty implemented a monopoly on tea and wine, and the government-run koji workshop made koji, so that the koji was sold in a certain amount to a few hotels to make wine. These hotels with liquor rights are also known as Zhengdian, and there are a total of 36 Zhengdian in Jiangning City, led by the feudal building, and thousands of other small and medium-sized hotels in Jiangning City have to buy wine from these 36 Zhengdian before selling. However, the dignitaries and nobles who can spend thousands of dollars to buy a drunk in the feudal building naturally refuse to drink alcohol, and often have to summon some singing and dancing girls to help the fun, commonly known as "dotting flower cards".

Su Mei became famous in the feudal mansion.

***********************************

Yongxingfang dustpan lane and the feudal building across the water, dustpan lane to the east there is a stone bridge called the state bridge to connect the north and south.

After arriving at the place to identify the house, in order to avoid encountering acquaintances, the fourth lady left first with Xiaoman, who was dressed as a teenager. Lin Lian and the others followed what the four ladies said, and went around to Beixunmen Street on the west side of Dustpan Lane to find the Hu Ji pawn shop that pawned the house.

Lin Jian originally only wanted to buy an ordinary house in the city, but although the name of Dustpan Lane is not very good, it is only named because there is a dustpan-shaped pond at the end of the alley, but because the Jiangning officials are mostly concentrated in the east of the city, the dustpan Lane located in the east of the city is mostly rich and noble, and it is not easy for Lin Tie to buy an ordinary house near the Dustpan Lane in the east of the city, relying on the Sumei Residence Baiyuan.

Found the pawn shop, Lin Lian and they first looked at the house under the leadership of the pawn shop guy.

The street gate facing the alley is ordinary, and the first courtyard to enter the gate is very shallow, which is the outer courtyard. The street gate faces east, and on the east side of the outer courtyard there is a row of four upside-down houses with their backs to the alley, one for the porter, one for the living room, and two for the manservant's living room. Passing through the weeping flower gate is the main courtyard, the three rooms in the north are built tall and facing south and sit in the main house, there are three wings on each side, the high courtyard wall in the south is separated from the people in the south, the wings, the main house and the hanging flowers are connected by the corridor, the lotus pot and potted flowers that are high to the waist are placed in the patio, and an osmanthus tree is also planted. Passing through the main house to the back is the backyard, there is a row of south-facing, low back cover rooms, generally used warehouses, miscellaneous rooms, maids, mothers-in-law live.

The whole house has a total of 20 rooms plus the ear room, and no matter where it is placed or what era it is placed in, it will be considered a mansion.

Although Lin Tie and they sold twenty horses to the township camp for three thousand taels of silver, this silver was the lifeblood of Qin Chengzu and them, and they wanted to buy a large number of necessary materials to be transported to Changshan Island to gain a foothold, and most of the silver was left in Shanglin, so they brought two hundred taels of silver out on this trip.

Compared with the maddening and desperate housing prices thousands of years later, wealthy families in this era usually bought land and built houses in the city by themselves, without exploitation by real estate developers, and there was no tax of this or that, so housing prices were relatively cheap. Just like Liu Yue'er hired the Gu family as a cook at a high price of three taels of silver per month, her annual income of thirty-six taels is almost enough to buy a small courtyard in Jiangning City.

Before Lin Jian came, he only wanted to spend seventy or eighty taels of silver to buy a house in Jiangning City where he could settle down, and he didn't think of buying a mansion.

It's no wonder that Su Mei deliberately asked the fourth lady to give him a small bag of gold bills, just because he was afraid that he would not have enough money; The pawnshop of this house asked for three hundred taels of silver.

Changshan Island depends on each other for life and death, and they will have to help each other in the future, Lin Jian doesn't mind spending Su Mei's money, and if he lives close, he can take care of any emergencies in time.

Folding three hundred taels of silver, nearly 400,000 coppers, even in Jiangning City, where the world is rich, is considered a lot of wealth, Lin Lian thought to himself that he tore his face with Du Rong in public at Chaotianyi yesterday and vowed not to stand on the other, just to attract the attention of Du Rong's opponent, and to live in a dilapidated place in Jiangning, it is inevitable that others will be despised by others.

Lin Jian immediately set up a document with the pawnshop, converted the gold bills given by Su Mei into silver and counted them to the pawnshop, and took back the title deed, house deed and the original owner's deed, etc., and just entered Jiangning even if he had a place to stay.

In this way, there is no need to prepare any other house for Liu Yue'er, just let her live in the back cover room in the backyard, and the four horses can also be put into the livestock shed in the backyard.

Lin Jian and the others only brought some simple luggage, and many things had to be added in Jiangning. There is a little advantage to doing business with a pawnshop, the pawnshop is not only willing to take valuables to pawn the loan, the general household objects can be mortgaged, and the accumulated over time is enough for the pawnshop to open another second-hand grocery store. Lin Tie and the others just spent a lot of money to buy a house, and those household items, the pawn shop was also very generous to sell and give away, and prepared a cart for Lin Tie to send to the house.

Lin Tie thought that there were still some things missing, not to mention that Zhao Hu and they had only entered Jiangning for the first time, Lin Tie participated in the township test in Jiangning last time, in fact, he was not very familiar with Jiangning City, he saw a few men gathered there at the mouth of the alley, these are idle men in the city, usually in the streets and alleys, if someone is sent to do something, they can take more than ten or twenty coppers to eat.

Lin Jian had long paid attention to these people at the mouth of the alley, and at this time he walked to the street, beckoned and called a thin-faced young man with a few patches on his clothes but cleanly washed: "We don't have the manpower to go to the East Market to buy things, how much do you need for you to help us walk?" ”

"See what you're buying?"

"Are you literate?"

"Recognize a few."

"Then you wait a while," Lin Jian went into the house and wrote a list and handed it to him, "Look at it, how much extra money do you have to charge for buying all these things and sending them over?" ”

"There are a lot of things, I'm going to buy them today and send them back, I'm just afraid that I won't be able to run, and I'm going to call another person to go with me, a total of forty yuan," the young man glanced at Lin Lian, and was a little worried that he would shout high, "These things are going to be bought, we have to run to several places, and you are in a hurry to use them here."

"Okay, you go and buy things for me first, and I'll pay you the money when I come back." Lin Jian handed a small silver ingot weighing five taels to the young man.

I couldn't see Zhao Hu and Chen Enze, Zhou Pu took a big package that I didn't know what was wrapped and walked to his own room, Liu Yue'er saw Lin Lian standing in front of the Weeping Flower Hall so rashly handed over a small silver ingot to a stranger to buy something, and when the idle young man walked out of the front yard, he couldn't help but come over and remind Lin Lian: "Why aren't you worried that he won't come back after taking the silver?" He may not be able to earn that much silver in half a year. These gangsters, there are also in Shiliang County, usually earn some money for running feet, sometimes they are brave enough to steal and rob, they are no different from bandits, and they are more gangs, we just came to Jiangning, he just turned around and said that we didn't give him money, and we can't do anything to him? ”

"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious, because the other party is a stranger who meets for the first time, so naturally you can't be suspicious casually." Lin Jian said seriously.

Liu Yue'er was speechless, thinking that Lin Juren was really a nerd, seeing that his face was a little impatient, she thought to herself what the rich lady had taken a fancy to him, and even gave him money and a maid to play with? She retreated and ran to the hood in the backyard, saw Zhao Hu and Chen Enze packing up their horses there, and said to him: "Brother Zhao, is your master reading too much?" She now knows that Zhao Hu is no longer in the Shanglin Township camp, and has already served as a domestic servant for Lin Lian.

Zhao Hu asked her what happened? Liu Yue'er told Zhao Hu what happened just now, and complained: "Why don't you understand the mind of a guard at all? Even if someone sticks money to him, he can't stand being deceived by others. ”

Zhao Hu laughed, and couldn't explain anything to her, so he just touched his head and said, "I don't know either." ”

Liu Yue'er was Gu Wuchen's wife, and Liu Yue'er herself didn't want to come with Lin Tie, but she knew that staying in the Gu family would be even more sad, and it didn't take long to be a good widow, so she didn't want to be a concubine for Gu Wuchen. Although Gu Wuchen was only over forty years old, he suffered a lot during the exile army and looked a little old.

In the front yard, Zhou Pu hid a crossbow, a hard bow, and the Mo knife he forced back from Wu Qi in the bedroom. Although the retinue of officials and lords' children can carry talisman weapons to walk, crossbows, hard bows, and mid-length weapons such as Mo knives are forbidden weapons, and they are not used in ordinary times, so they must be hidden first.

He heard Lin Yue talking in the hall, walked out with a smile, and asked Lin Yue, "Do you want me to go out and follow behind?" ”

"No, we are not familiar with life and death, walking in the crowd will be particularly obvious, it is not easy to hide, it is better to wait for him to be greedy for silver," Lin Jian said with a smile, but he was looking forward to others taking the silver and not coming back, and asked Zhou Pu again, "Among those idlers at the mouth of the alley, who do you think is like Du Rong sent?" ”

"The man who sat in the corner of the wall with a flat shoulder and looked at him would not be an ordinary idle man, and the young man with a new robe but two patches was also very suspicious, and others couldn't see it, and if someone asked the crow to come and see, the three generations of ancestors could see it." Zhou Pu said, "Why don't you find one of those two to help you run your feet?" ”

"Most of them won't lose my money," Lin Jian said with a smile, even if Zhou Pu's eyesight is not as good as Wu Qi's, decades of experience, it will not be much worse, "If the silver is greedy for others, we can also grab those two people and say that they are in a gang"
