Once entering the inner city.
A wide street appeared in front of Zhao Chongyuan and others.
There are many pedestrians on the road, and the cries of vendors are endless.
"Your Majesty, this Youzhou City is really lively. Those who don't know better would think this is the imperial city of our Daqian."
Sitting on the carriage, looking at the bustling Youzhou City.
Wang Lishi sighed repeatedly.
"Yes, when I fled to other places more than ten years ago, Youzhou was still a shabby little county. Not to mention the city walls were already in tatters due to wars every year. Even the roads in the city were in disarray when it rained. It’s mud, let alone leaving, even a car can’t move, how can it be like this now.”
Erwazi also looked emotional.
In the early years, there was war in Youzhou, the people were in dire straits, and bandits were rampant everywhere.
Not to mention outside the city, even in the city it is not necessarily safe.
It's better now.
You have to take off your weapons before entering the city, just to prevent the occurrence of armed fighting.
Moreover, there is a bluestone road all the way down. There is not even a piece of garbage on the road. It is so clean that it can be looked at in a mirror. It is like the sky and the earth.
The guards accompanying him couldn't say anything, but they all looked at the plants and trees in Youzhou City as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.
Not only is the street wide, but green plants are planted in the middle. It just separates into two lanes. One is left and the other is running in the opposite direction. There is no need to worry about the danger of running into each other because of running too fast.
Every 100 meters, connecting passages are set up so that pedestrians can walk to the opposite side.
This consideration is extremely thorough.
"These are all the work of His Highness, Prince Yan."
Wang Lishi has been grinning non-stop since he entered the city.
"That's right, my old uncle and my parents are also blessed by His Highness King Yan."
Erwazi also echoed from the side.
And listening to several people praising their sons, they looked at Youzhou City, which had undergone earth-shaking changes in just eight years.
Inside the carriage, Zhao Chongyuan couldn't stop laughing.
My seed.
My seed!
Just when a few people were curiously looking at the changes in Youzhou City.
A young man trotted over and said enthusiastically: "I saw how many of them were dressed. They have been looking at our Youzhou City curiously since they entered the city. They should be people from our work. It is their first time to come to our Youzhou City." state?"
"I am a local, but later I went to another place. This time I came to Youzhou with our master to do business."
According to what was discussed on the way here, Erwazi immediately stepped forward and answered.
The young man pretended to be surprised and glanced at Erwazi: "Hey local brothers, that's just right. It will be convenient for us to communicate."
Immediately, he pointed at himself and introduced himself: "You can call me Zhang San. I am the tour guide of Youzhou City. I am responsible for guiding foreigners to introduce our Youzhou customs and landforms."
At this point, the young man paused again and continued to explain: "The tour guides may not know about it, but I think you all know about hyacinth."
Sure enough, it was accompanied by the young man's explanation.
Wang Lishi, Zhao Chongyuan and others reacted immediately.
It is true that the word tour guide is a bit unfamiliar to them, but they all know the word hyacinth.
To put it bluntly, Hyacinth is a local from various places. They are responsible for receiving outsiders and introducing local conditions to outsiders to make a living.
Wang Lishi nodded and glanced at Erwazi, who understood immediately and took out a few pieces of silver from his sleeve and handed it to the young man: "Brother, this is the first time for my master to come here. Youzhou has changed so much now. I can't even recognize it.
You take this little money first.
Next, I might have to trouble you to introduce more to our master. "
The young man naturally understood after seeing this scene, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I can't accept this money. His Highness, King Yan, has said that as locals of Youzhou, we have the obligation to introduce Youzhou to all visitors from out of town."
"You don't need any money, how good is it?"
Wang Lishi looked at the young man in front of him in slight surprise.
The young man smiled and said: "That's natural, because our Highness, King Yan, has already paid the money you gave us;
Not only us hyacinths, but also the large and small vendors in Youzhou City, from the government servants to the aunties sweeping the floors in Youzhou City, can all receive monthly wages from the accounting office of Prince Yan's Mansion. "
Listen to what the young man said.
Only then did everyone notice.
The main reason why the streets of Youzhou City are so clean is that people clean them from time to time, and those who clean them are all elderly people.
"It's a good idea to have something to support when you are old and to earn something when you are young."
Zhao Chongyuan sighed in admiration.
Some elderly people in Daqian will basically face a miserable old age if they did not accumulate a certain amount of money in their early years.
Now Zhao Ding does this.
It not only solves the pension problem of these elderly people, but also solves the problem of idle people in society like Hyacinth, allowing them to make money, and naturally cause less trouble.
It's simply killing multiple birds with one stone.
"That's natural."
The young man smiled proudly.
In fact, he didn't say a word.
That is, the main source of their wages is these passing merchants who come to their Youzhou.
The more you steal from these businessmen.
The more Youzhou City earns.
When the dividends are distributed at the end of the year, the more wages they will receive.
Of course, there is a prerequisite for this.
That is, they have something in Youzhou that they don’t have in other places.
If you want it, you must come to Youzhou to purchase it.
Otherwise it would be a waste.
Those merchants from other places have long since disappeared.
While Zhao Chongyuan and others were not paying attention, the young man turned around and took a few steps to the aunt sweeping the floor on the roadside and whispered: "Initial trust has been established. I have gained the other party's favor. I will inform you that everything will proceed according to the original plan."
"clear."
The sweeping lady nodded immediately and continued to pretend to sweep the floor while walking quietly towards the city.
After doing all this, the young man returned to Wang Lishi and others, with a warm smile on his face again, and said: "You guys, please come with me, and I will guide you next. As for what you don't understand, , just ask me, His Highness King Yan said that this is your first time here, so we must leave you with a good impression of our Youzhou City."
"Good work."
After listening to the young man's words, Wang Lishi suddenly became very fond of this young man.
Zhao Chongyuan also sat in the carriage and watched everything with satisfaction.
However, after a few people had walked a few steps, an old man stepped forward with his hands behind his back and looked at them kindly: "It's the first time for these guests to come. It's inconvenient for the carriage to move around here. Why don't we place the carriage here?" In the parking lot."
"PARKING LOT?"
Wang Lishi looked at the young man in front of him with some curiosity.
The young man pointed to an open space not far from them and explained: "A few distinguished guests, don't know. In order to facilitate the management of our carriages in Youzhou City, His Highness King Yan has specially set up a parking lot. This uncle is responsible for managing the parking lot." Yes, as long as the distinguished guests hand over the carriage to him, he will help them guard the carriage and it will never be lost. Don't worry, even if it is lost, Prince Yan's Mansion will pay for it.
Moreover, you all came to Youzhou to buy things. As for the goods you bought, our people from Zhao's Trading Company will help you move them to the carriage.
I will never let you use more effort. "
As he spoke, the young man pointed to the tall, muscular, bare-chested men under the shade of the shop in the distance.
And just when the young man pointed at them, the tall, muscular, bare-chested men also looked at Wang Lishi and Zhao Chongyuan, showing kind smiles.
Looking at this scene, Zhao Chongyuan and others became more and more satisfied.
This is really thoughtful.
The old man on the side also grinned, showing a few remaining old yellow teeth, and said with a smile: "Please don't worry, if the carriage is parked in the parking lot, the horse will definitely be hungry.
I am here, old man, specifically responsible for feeding your horses.
The feed for the horses in our parking lot is all high-quality forage transported from Mobei, with coarse salt added. The horses will be strong after eating it, so that they will also be strong when they pull goods for you later! "
"Sir, His Highness Prince Yan is quite thoughtful in his design."
Listening to the words of the young man and the old man, Wang Lishi's old face suddenly smiled like a chrysanthemum.
Hyacinth leads the way for free.
There is no charge to park the carriage in the parking lot, and there are dedicated people to help move the goods.
This is really thoughtful.
"It's okay, it's okay."
Zhao Chongyuan said rather reservedly.
But the old face smiled even happier than Wang Lishi.
Wang Lishi nodded and signaled Erwazi to lead the carriage to the parking lot according to the old man's instructions.
Just when a few people had set up the carriage and were about to leave.
The old man rubbed his hands, looked at a few people with a smile, and said, "The parking fee is eighty yuan a day."
