Then I heard Lei Zhenzi talking about it, and went all the way to Prince Xing's Mansion. I was really surprised by the folk customs and customs of Lingnan I saw along the way.
Because this inevitably involves a lot of things, but Lei Zhenzi still has some knowledge and has avoided many trivial matters and only picked up the anecdotes. Although not necessarily all big things, the novelty of those small things is often very different from those in the Central Plains, which naturally arouses the two people to marvel.
For example, the unique architectural style of Lingnan, the magical construction patterns and methods, have given people a lot of inspiration. Of course, there are also the villages seen along the way, and the current development model of towns and villages in various places, which are as if they are the size of small cities.
Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, because Lei Zhenzi said it came smoothly, it is obvious that he can remember it so clearly after seeing the real thing. The two people sighed, but they were unwilling to let go of any details.
Besides, Lingnan has a pleasant climate and abundant fruits all year round, which is naturally even more enviable. Of course, this is not the main problem, but Lei Zhenzi mentioned that the dried fruits and seafood delicacies that emerged in Lingnan have actually replaced many food crops and become some of our daily foods. It is really surprising. People have a lot of imagination.
You must know that since the Later Liang Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, there has been almost no peace in the world, so the food that the world depends on for survival has always been the most troublesome thing and problem for all countries in the world!
Neighboring forces are constantly fighting, and there will always be a period of stalemate in the middle. There are other factors, but the most important issue obviously comes from the supply of materials. As the most important food among supplies, if it can be supplied at any time, it will be the biggest barrier to the power.
So if the fruits and seafood from Lingnan can become a kind of food, then the materials and resources from Lingnan can only be described as terrifying!
When hearing these things, naturally everyone has different thoughts. But if this kind of thing is true, and if you meet a master with enterprising spirit, it is inevitable to go north to the Central Plains!
You must know that although Jingnan is located in a gap, because wars rarely occur, Jingnan has developed extremely well. Not to mention the natural treasures, at least in the three states in Jingnan, they are all about cultivating health and recuperating, and have even developed to the point where the people are peaceful and the warehouses are full of supplies.
Now I suddenly heard that the alien barbaric land that had always been regarded as a barren land full of miasma was actually full of supplies and food. As a descendant of the Gao family, Gao Baoxu was naturally extremely shocked.
You must know that Lingnan has rarely gone to the Central Plains in recent years, so the Gao family's understanding of Lingnan is not as good as that of other forces. Although there are merchants traveling from north to south who have been gathering in Jiangling Mansion for business for a long time, the Gao family has only heard very little about them.
Therefore, what Lei Zhenzi saw and heard along the way, especially when the nearby Lingnan Jingcheng Palace was built, had reached its peak, which naturally opened the eyes of Gao Baoxu and Wei Qi!
When Lei Zhenzi said that the prosperity of Prince Xing's Mansion and the scale of the various strange buildings were far superior to those of other countries in the Central Plains, and even reached the legendary Chang'an City in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the two of them were naturally stunned in disbelief!
During the prosperous Tang Dynasty in Chang'an, the grand occasion of all nations coming to court was a scene that had rarely been seen in hundreds of years. Moreover, Lei Zhenzi's description is smooth and it seems that there is no exaggeration or falsehood at all, which naturally makes people unable to accept it for a while.
What's more, the scale of the city that Lei Zhenzi mentioned seems to be true, and it is obviously not a fabrication out of thin air. Especially when talking about the wonderful features of those buildings, people who understand will naturally become fascinated when they hear it. After all, there is no precedent in the Central Plains, so it seems to be an original creation of Lingnan!
Not only was Wei Qi dazzled, but Gao Baoxu, who was well-informed, was also entranced.
"If I didn't know my brother as a person, I really wouldn't believe what he said!" Wei Qi naturally looked at Lei Zhenzi in surprise. He had known Lei Zhenzi for many years and naturally knew that Lei Zhenzi was not talking nonsense. A man from the Eight Paths: "Brother has never been anywhere else in Jiangling Mansion, so please don't trick me!"
"Brother, what are you talking about? I have been to a few places in the past few years, and now that I have seen this place in Lingnan, I know that in terms of prosperity and excellence in the world today, it is really only the Liu family in Lingnan that has captured the essence of the previous dynasty!" However, Lei Zhenzi did not praise Jingnan at all because of Gao Baoxu's identity. Instead, he kept talking about the benefits of Lingnan!
Although Lei Zhenzi has been doing business abroad all these years, based on Wei Qi's understanding of Lei Zhenzi's character, he is not a person who talks nonsense. That's why I was so surprised and curious when I heard him say this.
You must know that this time Lei Zhenzi came back, he had already met with him many times, saying that he would tell him what he had seen and heard along the way over the years. Wei Qi was happy in his heart. In addition, he had seen Lei Zhenzi's temperament when he was young. Now that the master Gao Baoxu was here, Wei Qi wanted to introduce him.
At this time, when he heard Lei Zhenzi say that the wild land had turned into the best pure land in the world, not only Wei Qi found it difficult to accept it, but even Gao Baoxu would not believe it. So speaking out at this time was to remind Lei Zhenzi, and at the same time, he was also showing his relationship to Gao Baoxu.
But seeing Gao Baoxu seeming to be thinking slightly, he immediately became quiet!
"What Brother Lei said sounds reasonable. But just like what Brother Lei said, I'm afraid everyone in this world has underestimated the Liu family of Lingnan!" Gao Baoxu said quietly with some thought: "Back then, I heard that the founder of the Liu family, Emperor Gaozu, had some reputation in the world. Later, many people did not dare to go to Lingnan because of his reputation!"
"Now that I think about it, it is because of this ancestor's name that the descendants of the Liu family have worked hard for decades to turn Lingnan's business upside down!" Gao Baoxu was naturally a little emotional, because he also liked to stay in Jiangling Mansion. Wandering on the streets, I not only learned a lot about people's sentiments, but also met some people in the world. Now after listening to Lei Zhenzi's words, I naturally felt this way.
"I really don't understand this detail, but when I see the people everywhere in Lingnan, I feel a bit envious and yearning for it!" Lei Zhenzi did not hide his feelings, so looking at Gao Baoxu's expression, I couldn't help but express my feelings.
"Dare I ask Mr. Liu if he is here!" Suddenly, a voice was heard from outside.
Although Gao Baoxu's face was a little surprised, seeing Wei Qi's expression unchanged, he couldn't help but nod slightly towards him.
"Who is outside? Wei is here with Mr. Liu!" Wei Qi naturally understood what Gao Baoxu meant and immediately said outside. He glanced at Lei Zhenzi and signaled him to calm down.
