I'm really immortal

Li Hongfang's car was in the hotel parking lot, and Liu Changan asked her not to drive and just walk there, because this stretch of road was usually congested and difficult to walk.

Even convenient and flexible means of transportation such as electric cars or bicycles are sometimes difficult to get through. In addition to daily public vehicles, there are also a large number of tourist attractions and students from universities and middle schools, making this section of the road blocked.

Like many areas developed and planned in the 1980s and 1990s, the urban design capacity in this area of ​​Hexi is far below the current development status.

Li Hongfang led the way, and Liu Changan noticed that there was a heart-shaped pendant hanging precariously on the end of the waistband of her shorts.

"Brother Liu, when the Nine Provinces Fenglei Sword Sect was not in decline, was it as rich as any other country?" Li Hongfang asked expectantly.

Although she has not officially joined the Kyushu Fenglei Sword Sect, since Liu Changan has spoken, he will definitely not refuse her application after she transforms into a beautiful girl again.

Unless she gets uglier, she may be rejected.

Therefore, Li Hongfang naturally developed a sense of belonging to the Jiuzhou Fengleijian disciples. Even though the organization is now in decline, looking back on the past can still bring a sense of pride.

"The largest economy in the world at that time was the Song Dynasty, and the second largest economy in the world was the Nine Provinces Fenglei Sword Sect." Liu Changan thought for a while. The original Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect raised many women, and raising women requires a lot of money. , so I made some money.

Li Hongfang was surprised and a little unimaginable.

Li Hongfang was deeply impressed by the wealthy ancient merchants Fan Li and Shen Wansan.

In Fan Li's time, it was impossible to say how wealthy the country was. Fan Li's fame was mainly related to Xi Shi.

Shen Wansan was truly extremely wealthy, but later he became a little arrogant and did not carefully figure out his intentions, and was eventually killed.

When Li Hongfang went to Zhouzhuang, she also visited Shen Wansan's former residence and tomb... Shen Wansan's tomb was underwater. After Li Hongfang investigated it, he gave up some ideas.

Shen Wansan's wealth was comparable to that of the Ming Dynasty, but the economic situation of the Ming Dynasty was still very different from that of the Song Dynasty.

It is really unimaginable that the Song Dynasty was the target of an extremely wealthy country.

When Li Hongfang was collecting Song paintings, he came into contact with some Western historians. They believed that the Song Dynasty at that time was indeed the richest country in the world, with GDP accounting for 20 to 30% of the world's GDP, which was similar to that of the Ugly Kingdom today.

At the same time, they also believed that the per capita GDP in Europe during the same period was only about one-tenth lower than that of the Song Dynasty. The total amount could not be compared, so let's compare the per capita GDP.

It is a fine tradition in Western history circles to add bricks and tiles to one's own history. They say it is only one-tenth lower. Who gives people a greater say? The key is that there is a group of people. Where's the cute licking dog?

The Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect at that time... To make an analogy: in terms of wealth alone, the Song Dynasty at that time was equivalent to the Ugly Kingdom, so which country is the Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect equivalent to now?

It's so scary.

"Actually, it's just a converted wealth figure. It doesn't mean that the Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect has mastered economic activities on a national scale. The most that the Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect has is gold, silver, and many overseas fleets..." Liu Changan thought. After thinking about it, I recalled something.

"A sunken ship was discovered in the waters of Yangjiang in the 1980s, which was the starting point of my country's underwater archeology. Four to five thousand cultural relics of various types were salvaged. The archaeological community believes that they are all very rare or even unique cultural relics and treasures. The whole ship has such There are estimated to be nearly 100,000 cultural relics, and the previous auction prices for these cultural relics of the same level were hundreds of thousands of dollars each... This was the price more than ten years ago."

"I went to take a look at this sunken ship. It was just one of the ships in the Kyushu Fenglei Jianmen Sea Kingdom fleet that carried out ordinary commercial activities. Merchant ships like this departed from the seaport controlled by Jianmen, one after another. , routes all over the South China Sea, the Indian Ocean, and the Persian Gulf.”

After Liu Changan finished speaking, he glanced at the high and low skyscrapers in Hedong. Except now, the status of merchants in the Song Dynasty was probably the highest in all dynasties, and they were relatively less discriminated against.

Ancient sages have long realized that prosperous commerce is a good thing, but there is no need to give businessmen an excessively high social status.

"Oh my god... Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect was once so wealthy." Li Hongfang had an unacceptable contrast. It seems that the current Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect has indeed declined. When she went to investigate Liu Changan, she got a handful of information from that community. The old man learned from his mouth that Liu Changan lived a plain and simple life as an ordinary person.

Now Liu Changan does not seem to have a huge amount of wealth. If he wants to revive the Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect, he still needs to raise a lot of funds.

He probably has to take on the heavy responsibility of raising funds for Jianmen. After all, Liu Changan is like this. The other big guys in the sect may also be content with being ordinary and are not as rich as Li Hongfang.

"The Guangdong Maritime Silk Road Museum was built based on this sunken ship. You can go and take a look and look carefully. The pattern labels on many cultural relics displayed there will remind you of the Kyushu Fenglei Sword Gate." After the museum is completed, , Liu Changan has never been there, so you can go and have a look when you have time.

The idea of ​​​​going to see it is not strong, because there are too many similar situations, nothing unusual. After all, Liu Changan is not very interested in the exhibits unearthed from the tomb of Marquis Haihun displayed in the provincial museum next door.

"I must go and see." Li Hongfang clenched her fists. Tomb robbing was once her profession, but it was also a hobby. This hobby and interest are more or less related to her enthusiasm for learning history and culture. Why wouldn’t you want to go see the cultural exhibitions related to the ancient sects?

"Then you may not have time to see it recently. Let's open the rice noodle shop first."

"Of course, I won't delay business."

"Actually, if you are interested in the history of Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect, you can ask me directly." Liu Changan thought for a while and said.

"Okay." In the past, Li Hongfang didn't dare to chat with Liu Changan when nothing happened. Even if he was interested in Jiuzhou Fenglei Sword Sect, he only looked for information privately and did not dare to ask him directly.

Liu Changan nodded. The reason why he was so proactive was because of Li Hongfang's overly developed brain-filling ability. She could make up the content of sixty episodes of a TV series with just a few things. She especially liked to stigmatize some historical figures. For example, Liu He and Shangguan Dandan gave birth to a daughter or something.

Later she becomes interested in the Kyushu Fenglei Sword Sect. Who knows how many things she will arrange? Especially there are many women in Jiuzhou Fenglei Jianmen.

There are more women, so there are more gossips and rumors, such as secret histories of romance, erotic stories, and boudoir stories.

The rumors he told about the Nine Provinces Fengling Swordsman were of course the most authoritative. If Li Hongfang was still making up rumors, he would expel her from the Sword Gate, rub her into ashes, put them in a jar and bury her under the corner.

Thinking of this, Liu Changan looked at Li Hongfang and smiled gently.

Li Hongfang also smiled. Liu Changan's smile was always so elegant and easy-going. It's no wonder that Miss Su couldn't resist his charm.

After walking for a while, I came to a gray-white three-story independent factory building. According to the information introduced by Li Hongfang, this was once a textile factory and later transformed into a school. The most recent change of use was to a warehouse, which was more than ten years ago. It was something that happened before, and it has been abandoned ever since. Due to unclear property rights and repeated changes in the competent authorities, it was only recently that all relationships were established and it can be transferred and used normally.

"I've asked around. The old people in this area call this Textile School, but it's not a school for training textile technicians, nor is it a school for children of textile factories. It's just because it was originally a factory building of a textile factory." Li Hongfang lowered his voice, "Listen It is said that there have been supernatural incidents whether it was used as a textile factory or when it was used as a school."

"Talk about it." Liu Changan stood in the shade of the tree and looked up at the gray-white wall, which was covered with gray-black mold spots. The surface had been eroded by rain for many years. In some places, the outer layer was broken and torn off, revealing the hard blue wall inside. The body still looks extremely solid and has the most important characteristics of architecture of that era: solidity and durability.

The country was very poor at that time. It would be an unforgivable crime to turn such an important enterprise building as a textile factory into a shoddy project and waste some of the manpower and material resources that the country and people had worked so hard to accumulate.

Of course, times have changed, everyone's minds have changed, and the economic situation is also changing all the time. Why not turn a textile factory into a rice noodle shop?

"The earliest textile factories were basically staffed by female workers... They were all women's places, and it was normal for them to be haunted." Li Hongfang summed it up politically incorrectly, "It is said that the closure of the textile factory was related to the hauntings. For a period of time, they were on duty at night. Among the workers, you can always see a woman weaving with her hair. The cloth she weaves is all made of her hair. It seems like she has endless hair. The workers call her the Weaver Lady..."

Liu Changan couldn't help but look up at the sky. He couldn't see Vega during the day. The air in Junsha was average. There were only a few days every year when he could see the stars at night... A few didn't mean none. So last year, Liu Changan left Baolong Center No. 1 in 452. There is nothing wrong with jumping off the roof of a building and lying on the construction site to watch the Milky Way.

"Once a worker named Xiao Ming was on duty at night and saw Zhi Niang's hair stuck in the loom. He quickly turned off the power and saved Zhi Niang."

"Xiao Ming did not expect Zhi Niang to be a beautiful woman he had never seen before. She was wearing a 65-style khaki green military uniform, with beautiful braids, and a worker's hat with a shining red star on her head."

Liu Changan frowned and looked at Li Hongfang suspiciously.

Li Hongfang was not affected by Liu Changan's "staring" and continued to narrate emotionally: "Zhi Niang was a little shy and said that Xiao Ming was the first man to see her true face, so she decided to repay him. She asked Xiao Ming to go home. Don’t tell anyone and she’ll go find him the next night.”

"Xiao Ming was a little scared. After all, it was said that Zhi Niang was a ghost, but after seeing Zhi Niang's pure and beautiful appearance and big shining eyes, he agreed."

"The red stars and big eyes are both shining. Your adjectives are too limited." Liu Changan felt that Li Hongfang's imagination was suitable for writing novels, but his literary background was obviously insufficient.

Li Hongfang didn't take it seriously and continued, "The next night, Xiao Ming thought about the stories of fairies, carps, vixens, and snails repaying their kindness, and waited excitedly. At twelve o'clock in the evening... the door of his house opened. You guessed it? What's wrong?"

"Did you ask about ghost stories, or do you want me to cooperate with you in cross talk?" Liu Changan definitely didn't guess. He already regretted coming to investigate with her.

"You will definitely not guess... A cow rushed into Xiao Ming's house and killed Xiao Ming with its horns. Because he was the Cowherd and Zhinang was the Weaver Girl. The Cowherd realized that Zhinang would cheat on Xiao Ming after she met him, so he came over to kill him. Xiao Ming was killed." Li Hongfang sighed, "Later, Xiao Ming turned into a resentful ghost and has been wandering here. Every Chinese Valentine's Day, people can often see him staring at the sky with resentment on his face. Any couple who sees Xiao Ming will separate."

"Li Hongfang, is this a supernatural incident that you heard about, or did you make it up?" Liu Changan reached out and grabbed Li Hongfang's neck, but did not break it for the time being.

"Brother Liu... I really heard about it... 90% of it is like this... After analyzing it, I restored the real situation a little bit." Li Hongfang looked forward with a stiff neck and stumbled.

"Where do you begin to reconstruct the story?"

"It starts with Xiao Ming's appearance."

In other words, the real supernatural incident was that there was a weaver ghost in the textile factory, and she made up the rest. Liu Changan let go of Li Hongfang's neck and said coldly: "If you don't find anything supernatural here today, you Just prepare to get your heart-shaped ass kicked.”

Li Hongfang shrank her neck and pressed her butt involuntarily. She didn't wear a combat uniform today, but there was a big hollow heart shape on the back of her underwear. I didn't know if that would work.
