Early the next morning, Qin Su and Shen Yuyun packed up and went out early.

The land of the capital, at the foot of the emperor, as the capital of the 300-year foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, its wealth is unimaginable.The whole capital city is like a square chess game with one side closed, with four orientations in the southeast and northwest. It was surveyed and mapped by the famous Fengshui master Kanyu. It adopts the traditional setting of east expensive and south cheap, north business and west trouble, and the moat running through the middle. Revitalize the entire city.In the dark, it looks like a sleeping potential dragon, immersed in the earth veins, surrounded by elegant dragon aura, gathering purple energy from the world.

Dongcheng is a place where dignitaries, nobles and royal families gather. Most of the residences here are unique to the royal family, and a few are used by the emperor to reward civil servants and generals with outstanding meritorious service.Dazhou was strictly hierarchical and distinct, and the whole Dongcheng highlighted the word "gui". The palaces and mansions inside were either carved beams and painted buildings, or exquisite and elegant, and they always had their own characteristics and luxury.

The "Prince Qin's Mansion" where Qin Su and Shen Yuyun lived temporarily is also located here, and the originally spacious and luxurious palace is not so conspicuous among the mansions on the first street.

Xicheng is the place where the capital city trades and trades with each other, and there is a lot of traffic and flow.

Although the Great Zhou emphasized agriculture and suppressed merchants, compared with the previous dynasty, the overall status of merchants has improved a lot. Not only can they wear the clothes of officials below the eighth rank, but they can also enjoy the jade and silk worn by the nobles.The clause that merchants were not allowed to take the imperial examination for three generations was also abolished by Emperor Qianyuan. This move greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of merchants, and the country's commercial development was in full swing.Therefore, in West Street, there are not only big belly and luxuriously dressed Dazhou merchants, but also merchants from the surrounding small ethnic groups wearing felt hats and ethnic costumes.

After the end of the world, the national economy was depressed, and the people were in danger, so West Street once became a "dead street".But as the world gradually became peaceful, merchants from all over the world began to communicate again, and the West Street gradually became lively. When the crown prince's enthronement ceremony was held, heroes from all walks of life came to watch the ceremony. Come to the capital, ready to do a big job.

The place where Qin Su and Shen Yuyun are going today is the "Hundred Commercial Street", which is known as the most affluent and complete place in the Great Zhou Dynasty.In Baishang Street, there are only things you can't think of, and there is absolutely nothing you can't buy!

Qin Su took Shen Yuyun's hand and walked all the way to Baishang Street.He was accompanied by the young Chuxue, Zhaozhuang Ping'an and more than a dozen supernatural guards behind him.

As soon as you step into West Street, everyone can feel the hustle and bustle inside. This place seems to be another world by itself, which is incompatible with the cleanliness and elegance of East City.

On the wide road, sedan chairs and carriages stop and go, and there are many high-rise buildings along the street. The waiters dressed in various styles are either shouting to attract guests, or welcoming them warmly, with sincere and warm smiles on their faces.Some men and women in short and rough clothes set up small stalls, blocking various alleys, and kept hawking loudly.

After a while, two groups of men in black armor and red silk scarves came from the corner of the street. Qin Su glanced at it curiously, and the stall owner next to him enthusiastically explained to him, "That's the patrol guard in the city. It is said that the team was established after the shift system in Xinqin. In the early days, mutated animals and plants in the capital came out from time to time to disturb the normal life of the people. The prince ordered people to form a patrol team to regularly patrol the streets in the city. In the corner, people dare to go out to do business."

"It turned out to be like this." Qin Su thanked the stall owner and dragged Shen Yuyun to continue walking inside.

With the continuous deepening, the ordinary vendors and small stalls are no longer seen on the street. There are all kinds of double-storey restaurants, gold and silver shops. At first glance, they are specially prepared for people with a certain status. Ethnic clothing accessories also appear in the store.

Shen Yuyun wore a veil on her face, and her bright eyes kept looking around curiously.Qin Su saw that he was curious, so he slowed down on purpose, and asked softly, "Do you still feel familiar? Is this capital much different from what you remember?"

Shen Yuyun shook his head, with a trace of sadness in his eyes, and said with some melancholy, "Many places are different! For example, where, I remember when I was a child, there was a pastry shop, and now it has been converted into a jade shop, and there, it used to be the capital city I don’t know where the cloth village, which is most popular with my brother, has moved to.” Shen Yuyun pointed to a tall building not far away, her voice hard to hide her melancholy.

"And..." Shen Yuyun hesitated to speak, for a long time, the hand holding Qin Su trembled a little, and then said in a low voice, "Husband, didn't you notice?"

"Huh?" Qin Su was puzzled and looked down at him.

Shen Yuyun tried to ignore the surroundings as much as possible to look around secretly, pursed his lips, pressed his body close to Qin Su, and said in a low voice, "We have been walking for so long, and we have seen many merchants and hawkers when we come and go, but it is very strange. What's more, I hardly ever see a brother who goes out, even these rich and nobles who go shopping rarely see one or two brothers."

When Shen Yuyun said this, Qin Su quickly looked around, and where his eyes were, he really didn't see a single brother!

Qin Su's complexion suddenly became a little complicated. He has never noticed this, because even though he has lived here for so long, his subconscious mind still feels that there are only two types of people in this world, men and women, and brother is just Just a special man.Therefore, from the moment he entered the West Street, he saw men and women in his field of vision. He didn't find it strange at all, and he still felt the wealth and prosperity of this West Street in his heart.But Shen Yuyun was different. He had grown up with men, women and brothers in his world view, so he immediately found out that something was wrong.

From the moment he entered the West Street, the eyes of those men and women always gathered around him intentionally or unintentionally. He thought it was Shen Yuyun's outstanding figure that aroused everyone's curiosity, so he didn't take it to heart, instead he was proud of it .Looking at it now, it's not because others think Shen Yuyun is good-looking that they look at him more. It's purely because Shen Yuyun is a brother, so they feel surprised and can't help but look at him!

"When I used to go to the street, there would be many brothers and ladies like me today, wearing veils on their faces, followed by maids, looking around curiously, and then entering their favorite shops to choose clothes and jewelry. But today , I can clearly feel that there are more women, bro..."

Before Shen Yuyun finished speaking, Qin Su was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable, so he hugged Shen Yuyun in his arms and comforted him gently, regardless of the public.

Three years ago, he and Shen Yuyun had guessed that with the continuous awakening of men and women's supernatural powers, if my brother failed to awaken his supernatural powers, his status after the end of the world would be even more humble and lowly, and even as time went by, no With the strengthening of supernatural powers, brother's genes cannot compete with the genes of men and women, and will be at an absolute disadvantage in racial reproduction, and will gradually disappear in the long river of history.

It turned out that in Ningzhou City, because of Qin Su's love for Shen Yuyun, the civil servants and generals in his hands all subtly looked at his elder brother.Therefore, the status of brothers in the new Qin land boundary has not changed much. When traveling, you can still see many brothers working on the land, setting up stalls by themselves, etc.

But here in Dazhou, my brother's status is already at the bottom, and now because he can't awaken his abilities, he must be in a more difficult situation.Women can fight against men because of their abilities. They gradually appear in shopping malls, in the fields, and even in the officialdom in the future, but my brother...they have no bargaining chips. And know.

In just three years, a small market reflects the future pattern of the world.

"Do your best to obey the destiny!" Qin Su looked at the sky with long-distance eyes, and sighed softly.If it was anything else, he might still fight for it, but only in this matter, he had no room to intervene.

Shen Yuyun lowered her eyes, like a pair of broken wings of a butterfly.

"My lord, the Qiongyu residence is just ahead, do you want to go in and have a look?" Tanyue pointed to the tall building not far away, eager to try.He didn't hear the conversation between the two just now, and now he saw the jade shop that was most popular with young ladies in the capital, and it was also Shen Yuyun's favorite jewelry shop, full of excitement.

Shen Yuyun raised her head and was distracted by him.

"Ayun, do you want to take a look?" Seeing his nostalgic eyes, Qin Su held his hand, wanting to go in with him to have a look.

Shen Yuyun looked at the familiar old shop in front of him, and he seemed to think of the days in the Hou's mansion again.It's a bit funny to say that he has stayed in the Hou's mansion for more than ten years, but the memories left to him are either the strict rules or the various scolding and reprimands from his parents.Even though it's only a few years with Qin Su, every day is worth his memory, every moment he is sweet and happy.

"Go in and take a look. Didn't you say you want to go back to the Hou's Mansion with me? The Hou's family has a big business, and the rules are very strict, and they are used to watching the dishes. If you and I don't buy a few expensive accessories to wear, I'm afraid it will be a mess." People will take it lightly." Shen Yuyun's face returned to normal, and said lightly.His tone was brisk, even a little teasing, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Qin Su raised his brows, "I'll listen to you as a husband." The little husband is angry now, he has to be careful to coax him, otherwise he will suffer in the end.

Qin Su and Shen Yuyun brought people into the store, and the store waiter saw the mighty group of people and knew that it was a big business.

The leading man is tall and burly, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, with an unspeakable nobleness all over his body. Although he didn't speak, but wherever he stands, his eyes glance at you, which is a burst of pressure.This is a man who has been in a high position for a long time!The waiter secretly wondered, and compared all the famous and surnamed people in the capital one by one, and found that Qin Su was not one of them, which made him even more surprised.

"Take out your most popular and novel accessories." Tan Yue received Shen Yuyun's signal, and stepped forward slightly, with a hint of arrogance in her tone.

"Okay, dear guest, please wait for a moment!" The waiter hurriedly agreed, and hurried upstairs.When passing by Shen Yuyun, he unconsciously took a look.

"Strange..." Xiao Er muttered to himself.As the most famous jade shop in Dazhou, he welcomes customers every day, and he has seen many big scenes and big figures. It stands to reason that he knows all the famous people in the capital, but these people who came today are unfamiliar. Having said that, they all have outstanding temperaments, and they are not simple characters at first glance!

"Where are you muttering? You don't entertain the guests when they come!" Shopkeeper Jin threw a gold ingot on the waiter's head, and slowly walked over holding his big belly.

"Oh, shopkeeper, you have wronged me. There are a group of distinguished guests here. I hurried upstairs to get some good things!" Tucking it into his arms, he didn't care about the rolling eyes of shopkeeper Jin.

"However, I really don't know any of the people downstairs. I have been in the capital for so many years, and there are very few noble people who don't know me."

Shopkeeper Jin glanced down from the attic, smacked his lips and squinted his eyes, and said, "What's so strange about this, so many foreigners who came to attend the Prince's Succession Hall in the capital recently, these people must be from other places too, Didn’t the people from Xinqin arrive yesterday? These people may be the heroes of Xinqin!”

"You take down the newly made jade wares in the shop, and I'll serve them myself." Shopkeeper Jin ordered, and walked down the stairs on his own.

"The bracelet in the young master's hand was newly released last month. It is carved from high-quality Yujiang warm jade. The surface of the bracelet is covered with flowing fireflies. The front is hollowed out and carved with seven stars accompanying the moon. It is radiant under the sun with sparks Swaying, at night, the stars inside the bracelet and the crescent moon complement each other, with firefly brilliance. Fujiang Nuanyu has always been used to nourish people. Wearing this bracelet, it will be warm in winter and cool in summer, which is of great benefit to free and weak brothers. And ——" The treasurer Jin stared at the two people who behaved intimately and deliberately elongated his voice, "This bracelet is the masterpiece of the famous jade master Yu Jizi. It was specially designed by him to commemorate his wife who passed away early. The star on it The moon carvings imply a deep meaning, entrusting his infinite affection for his wife."

As soon as the shopkeeper Jin appeared, he attracted the attention of Shen Yuyun and Qin Su, and he was even more interested when he talked. After his introduction, Qin Su thoughtfully picked up the bracelet in front of Shen Yuyun, and after looking it over, Gently put it on Shen Yuyun, and said softly, "May I be like a star king like a moon, and the night and night stream be bright and clean."

Shen Yuyun's ears were hot, and she touched her reddened cheeks, quickly retracted her hands into her sleeves, and gave Qin Su a coquettish look.In broad daylight, there are so many people watching, it's getting more and more dishonest!

"Your honored guest and Mr. Lang are husband and wife with deep love, and they envy others!" The shopkeeper Jin watched the interaction between the two, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.After the apocalypse, this is the first couple he has seen so lovingly. Their eyes and movements are full of affection and love.

"The shopkeeper made fun of me." Qin Su said indifferently.

The treasurer Jin was not angry because of Qin Su's estrangement, but smiled more heartily, looking at Qin Su with a pair of small eyes smiling, and clasped his fists together, "I, Jin, is the owner of Qiongyu House in the capital. I don't know if your Excellency is—— "

"Tourists from other places are not enough." Qin Su cupped his fists in return, neither polite nor friendly, "If the shopkeeper doesn't mind calling me Brother Qin, that's fine."

"Brother Qin, you are welcome. These are the treasures of the store, and they will not be taken out easily. You and Mr. Xiaolang have a look, do you still like it?" The waiter came down with a few sandalwood incense boxes, and the shopkeeper Jin greeted , "This is an exquisite jade buckle with nine hidden rings. It has been incensed under the seat of the Buddha in the Great Buddha Temple for three years. The jade buckle is stained with immortal energy, bursting with sandalwood, which has the effect of attracting good luck and avoiding evil."

Shen Yuyun nodded slightly, looked at the jade buckle in the hands of the shopkeeper Jin with some curiosity, and thought secretly: Husband is usually simple, and his hair is tied up with ribbons casually. Participating in the succession ceremony from time to time will not look too shabby.

"The shopkeeper has such a good thing, why didn't he recommend it to me in the past?" A chuckle broke the silence in the hall.The visitor was dressed in a peony rich brocade jacket, and a red skirt with flowing clouds underneath. He was flirtatious, and his arrogance could not be concealed between his eyebrows and eyes.

When Shen Yuyun heard someone's voice, her body trembled almost imperceptibly.Qin Su knew something was wrong, and he pointed his eyes, and asked secretly, "Who is this?"

"Uncle" Shen Yuyun gently wrote these three characters in the palm of his hand.
