After three years of enfeoffment, the waste prince shocked the court boss

Oops, this old man shouldn't judge people by their cover, it's your fault that this old man made a mistake. "

Jia Siyan cupped his hands and said, although he is a great prime minister, he has no airs.

Qi Yong: Although you are apologizing to me, I feel that you are scolding me.

……

"I didn't expect Lingnan to be so rich. Spending money to invite the people to build the city and let the people eat meat. It seems that King An is really good at governing Lingnan."

Jia Siyan thought in his heart.

Can not help but look forward to what to see next.

……

Chapter 42

Jia Siyan continued to walk towards the city.

As far as the eye can see, there are construction sites in full swing.

In some places, the whole picture has been slightly seen, and it can be seen that it is a group of buildings covering a huge area.

Jia Siyan didn't feel any aesthetics about the square buildings that hadn't been roofed yet, but he was inexplicably shocked.

After walking forward for about three or four miles, I suddenly saw another city wall appearing in front of me.

"Strange, why is there another city here?"

Jia Siyan was surprised.

Walking quickly to the gate of the city, there was no one on duty.

I saw a group of strong men struggling to remove the wall bricks.

"What are you waiting for?"

Jia Siyan stopped a strong man passing by and said.

"Tear down the city wall."

The strong man was suddenly grabbed by someone, and said inexplicably.

"Why should this good city wall be demolished?"

Jia Siyan was puzzled.

"Didn't you come from the north? A new one has been built over there, so the old one will naturally have to be demolished."

The strong man took it for granted.

"You mean, this is the original city wall of Lingnan Prefecture? You are expanding the city!"

"if not?"

Seeing Jia Siyan rambling on and on, the strong man simply turned his head and walked away, ignoring him.

"The city gate was at least three or four miles away from here just now, and the city has been expanded to such a large extent!"

Thinking of this, Jia Siyan was extremely shocked.

"Doesn't this mean that the prefectural city in Lingnan is already the largest city in the world other than the capital?"

Looking at the city wall being demolished in front of him, Jia Siyan felt mixed emotions.

"Unexpectedly, King An was able to build such a huge city in this land of Lingnan. I don't know how much effort was put into it."

Jia Siyan said with emotion.

Stepping into the city gate, Jia Siyan saw that the scene in the city was very different from the scene he just passed by.

I saw the constant flow of people and horses, and the sound of hawking along the edge, so lively.

"This level of prosperity is no less than that of the capital city."

"The ground is so smooth, it looks like it's paved with cement."

Stepping on the smooth concrete road, Jia Siyan was shocked by the cleanliness of the ground.

The road leading directly to the city gate is so wide that it can accommodate four carriages passing side by side.

Five lines were drawn on the ground, and the carriage drove straight along the white line without any hindrance.

Pedestrians were walking back and forth on both sides of the road, and they all consciously did not walk in the middle of the road, but left the middle position for the carriage.

"This method is very good, so that the carriage can pass quickly."

Jia Siyan couldn't help praising.

Walking along the road, you will find that the layout of the city is divided into four squares by the roads, and the roads criss-cross and extend in all directions.

And some of the buildings in the city are similar to those in other places in Dagan, with carved beams and painted buildings.

However, the buildings in many areas are similar to the houses in the construction area we just passed by, with square cement plastered surfaces.

"It probably hasn't been remodeled in the future."

Jia Siyan thought.

Before coming here, Jia Siyan knew that there are high-yield sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn in Lingnan.

Along the street, you can see vendors selling baked sweet potatoes and delicacies called popcorn.

Jia Siyan bought one out of curiosity, and he was full of praise for the taste.

"This is the first time for the guest to come to our Lingnan City, do you need to stay at the hotel?"

Passing by an inn, a man dressed as a servant came over to talk to him.

"It's work."

Seeing that it was getting late, Jia Siyan also thought about finding a place to stay first.

The waiter in the shop quickly took the mule and horse led by Jia Siyan and sent it to the backyard to resettle.

Another person came out and led Jia Siyan to the lobby of the inn.

"Youshang Inn, the name is really easy to understand."

Jia Siyan looked up at the inn's plaque and said.

"The guest officer is here today. Our inn has just been renovated recently, and it is an old-style building that has been specially approved by the government.

However, the interior of the room has been remodeled according to the drawings announced by His Highness Wang An, which definitely refreshed the guests. "

The boy introduced enthusiastically.

"I see that the old and new architectural styles in your city are intertwined. Could it be that the renovation has not been completed yet?"

Jia Siyan asked out the doubts in his heart.

"The announcement from the government is that all the old areas in the city will be gradually demolished and rebuilt, and replaced with new-style concrete houses.

Except for the distinctive landmark buildings, they are all to be demolished and rebuilt, which is said to be conducive to the rational layout of the city.

Because our inn was designed by a master architect back then, and the architectural style is unique in Lingnan City, it was specially approved to be preserved as a landmark building in Fucheng. "

The boy said proudly.

"Guest officer, the guest room here costs three taels of silver per night. If you need anything, just pull the drawstring of the room, and someone will come to the door."

The boy said.

"So expensive?"

Jia Siyan was taken aback by Xiao Er's offer.

The price of three taels of silver for one night is not so expensive even in the capital.

"The guest officer does not know that our room is completely built according to the latest hotel standards, which is the same standard as the ten-story Lingnan Hotel in the city center that has not yet been built.

Each room has hot water, and guests can take a bath directly in the room.

The room is equipped with a flush toilet, a person-high mirror, and soap.

And we will provide breakfast for the guests here, and it will be delivered directly to the guest room.

Adding all these together, it is definitely worth the money for the guest officer.

The most important thing is that the current Lingnan Prefecture is the only one that meets this standard.

If the guest officer wants to experience this novel experience of staying in an inn, at least he has to wait until the reconstruction of other inns is completed, and it will be at least a month later. "

The boy introduced it.

"Okay, the old man will be extravagant today."

Jia Siyan was also moved by the eloquence of the waiter in this shop, so he simply booked a room.

Walking into the room, I saw that the furnishings in the room were exactly the same as the boy said.

When the toilet in that room was pulled, water would flow out to wash away the dirt.

The lotus-like mechanism on the top of the head flipped the switch and hot water flowed down.

There is also a large mirror inlaid on the wall with a height of one person. It is said that this mirror can be sold for a thousand taels of silver in the capital. Next to the washbasin is a piece of soap, which is said to be a hot commodity in the capital.

"It's really a big deal! The three taels of money are well spent."

Jia Siyan sighed.

At night, just as he was about to rest, the street noises during the day could still be faintly heard.

Jia Siyan pushed open the window, only to see that although the street was full of people, it was still bustling.

The buildings along the street have already lit up lanterns, illuminating the entire street.

"There is no curfew in Lingnan."

……

Chapter 43 This Unlearned Guy Can Lecture

On the second day, Jia Siyan continued to wander around the city after eating the breakfast delivered by the inn.

The purpose of coming here this time is to see how the Lingnan Mansion is governed by King An, so naturally he doesn't want to miss anything.

Walking to the front of a very large building complex, I saw the words "Lingnan Prefecture Teaching Area" engraved on the door.

"Teaching area? Could it be a place for studying? The name is strange."

As soon as I entered the door, there was a five-story building inside. From the outside, the interior was divided into individual rooms.

"The window is inlaid with glass?"

The sunlight shone on the building, and it was reflected in patches of light. From the window, one could faintly see the room full of people sitting in it.

This is Li Su's new teaching area, which is divided into primary school and middle school, and a university was established on the original basis, mainly teaching business, economics, politics, etc.

It can accommodate up to 5000 students at the same time, but it has not been completely completed yet, and only some classrooms have been opened.

There is also an area planned behind the teaching area as a research institute.

He walked around the building and saw that there were people walking around in the so-called teaching area, but no one came to ask him.

"It seems that this teaching area is open, and outsiders are not restricted from entering."

After finding the entrance to the building, Jia Siyan walked into the building along the stairs.

"At the beginning of human beings, nature is good.

Sex is similar, learning is far..."

Jia Siyan, who was standing outside the classroom, heard the sound of children reading in the room.

"What kind of article is this? It's so catchy?"

Jia Siyan kept this article silently in his heart, planning to find someone to ask about it later.

As the prime minister of the current dynasty, his natural literary literacy is not bad. As soon as he listens to it, he knows that this article is easy to understand, and it is very enlightening for children.

"If it can be popularized across the country, it will be of great benefit. I don't know which great Confucian made it."

Going forward again, I came to the door of a classroom.
