When Xie Yingzhou arrived in Zhenyang, the sun was already setting, and the early winter in Zhenyang was already cold and windy, a bit colder than Haicheng. This place is located in the northeast of Qinzhen. The overall terrain is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, surrounded by three sides in the north and northeast. There are two rivers flowing through here, namely the Shuanggan River near the northern mountains, and the Baishuang River flowing through the city. This world-famous prosperous city is built on the bend of the Shuanggan River, and there is a large forest and forest behind it. The grassland, with lush water and grass, is the place where the royal family hunts.

Not wanting Cang Chiu to disturb the people near Zhenyang, Xie Yingzhou asked Cang Chiu to find a place where no one was around to land. Cang Chiu turned into a little girl in mid-air and fell freely with Xie Yingzhou.

However, Xie Yingzhou was no longer troubled by such a height. She hugged Cang Chiu and landed steadily in a small forest not far from Lizhenyang City Gate.

"Thank you, Master Cang Chiu." Holding Cang Chiu in her arms with one hand, Xie Yingzhou casually tidied up her bangs that were blown by the wind, and then walked towards Zhenyang. But she practiced aura, and the cold air didn't bother her. The only trouble was that she didn't expect that such a dress clearly revealed that she was a cultivator with a high level of cultivation.

Xie Yingzhou carefully created a spiritual world around her body that is isolated from prying eyes.

From a distance, Xie Yingzhou saw the bustling crowd of people at the gate of Zhenyang City. They were farmers carrying burdens or driving ox carts, and they were queuing up to walk out of Zhenyang City. The endless towering city wall, made of off-white stone bricks, winds towards the distant horizon, majestic and majestic, Xie Yingzhou, a modern person, can't help but be amazed when he sees it.

Xie Yingzhou walked towards the crowd without haste, followed the winding city wall in the distance, and saw that there were two city gates over there, and people kept coming in and out.

Observing silently, Xie Yingzhou saw that most of the people who left the city were people living in villages near the imperial capital. They would bring their own crops into the city to sell during the day, and they would leave Zhenyang when night fell.

And some of the people rushing into the city were mostly foreigners. Xie Yingzhou saw that some of them were well-dressed and looked like students who had entered the city to rush for the exam, and some of them had fluttering dresses and were heroic. They looked like immortal cultivators walking in the rivers and lakes. There are some well-dressed dignitaries who sit on tall horses or on the backs of monsters with strange shapes, their faces full of arrogance.

Xie Yingzhou hugged Cang Chi, mixed in at the end of the team entering the city, and walked towards the city gate.

Before approaching, Xie Yingzhou looked up and saw the three characters "Dongshuimen" written on the top of the city gate.

"Name." When it was Xie Yingzhou's turn, the two soldiers guarding the city asked wearily.

"Wu Ying, from Jiangbei." Xie Yingzhou handed over two prepared guides, one was her own and the other was Cang Qian's.

"What are you doing in town?"

"To make a living, I want to test the six doors." Xie Yingzhou grinned, showing a bright smile.

One of the soldiers who was looking at her leading the way looked up and down Xie Yingzhou's side, probably seeing that she was wearing thin clothes but with a calm demeanor, guessed that she should be a cultivator, and her demeanor was also a bit polite, and said cheerfully, "That's not easy, To test the speed of writing, I was brushed off this level, here you go, go in."

He said and handed Lu Yin back to Xie Yingzhou.

"Thank you." Xie Yingzhou smiled and nodded in thanks, and took Cang Chiu's hand into Zhenyang.

The writing speed test, she naturally knows, she has already inquired before, the police officers of the Sanfa Department are public positions that people of ordinary background can obtain, they are not like the "temporary workers" who can't get on the stage in real history, It is considered to be organized by the imperial court, but it is not as strict as the scientific examination. Although the people who take the examination are required to be literate, this is not considered harsh for the people of Qin Zhenguo today.

The universal education in this world of books has been implemented 10 years ago. The imperial court stipulated that children between the ages of seven and 11 must go to the free school set up by the imperial court to learn calligraphy. After the age of 11, if they want to learn by themselves, they have to pay tuition fees. Afterwards, the imperial court opened up many official positions that ordinary people could also obtain. This made those Qin farmers who wanted their children to help with work at home also willing to let their children go to school to study and practice calligraphy, because compared with the family, there is one less labor force. something more promising.

Xie Yingzhou even found out that if a student is from a poor family but is particularly gifted, he can apply for a bursary from the local government.

Grants, even the name is not changed.

Xie Yingzhou had reason to suspect that a time traveler like her had been mixed into the bureaucratic ranks of the Yin family.

However, after many inquiries, it was discovered that the idea was given by the current emperor, Li Jun.

Xie Yingzhou still remembers the feeling of a bolt from the blue when she heard the news. Her cheap father, didn't he also come from the house?This is scary!

As Xie Yingzhou inquired more about the practices of the Yin Dynasty, she found that there were many such operations similar to "bursaries", but some places did not seem to be true. It was as if there was an ancient man who was learning some modern policies. , but some places are specious and confusing, and those policies are not like Li Jun can come up with alone.

To Xie Yingzhou's surprise, Qin Zhen's current crown prince is actually a woman named Yin Mu. It's not because there is no suitable prince, nor is it because of plots such as treason and usurpation, but because Li Jun was 15 years old when she was [-] years old. , according to the normal process, personally announced her as Qin Zhen's next monarch, saying that she was the most like himself and the most suitable candidate for the crown prince.

Although the Yin Dynasty ruled this land for more than 1400 years, there were not all female monarchs, but such a solemn announcement that the successor was a woman still caused an uproar in Qin Zhen at that time, and the current queen mother even forced her to die. Li Jun asked Li Jun to change his heir, but Li Jun, who firmly grasped the government affairs, refused his mother's request, even at the expense of mother and son.

Yin Mu, now 17 years old, the second princess, the younger Yinya for three months, was born to Jun Li's first concubine, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Shu had already passed away after giving birth to Yin Mu, she was a concubine with no sense of existence .

It is far inferior to Zhen Ji, who is favored by Jun Li now, but Zhen Ji's two sons, one 17 years old and the other 16 years old, are not among the candidates for the crown prince.

After becoming the crown prince, Yin Mu lived up to Jun Li's expectations. She followed him on the expedition. Although she was a woman, she fought bravely, with strategies and wisdom, and suppressed many voices of doubt. In the past two years, Everyone also slowly accepted that Qin Zhenguo's next monarch will be a woman.

This world in the book far exceeds all the history Xie Yingzhou knows, but she has gradually adapted to it. It doesn't matter to her whether the monarch is a man or a woman. Her goal is only to grow willows and chase the wind.

Entering Dongshuimen, which is located at the easternmost end of Zhenyang Outer City, Xie Yingzhou saw a straight and spacious avenue in front of her. The width of the street was more than 100 meters, with cars and horses passing through, crowds of people, and many cultivators with demons. , Xie Yingzhou looked at the people coming and going in front of her, couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and said something silently in her heart.

They come, the security.

Entering the outer city of Zhenyang along that wide avenue, Xie Yingzhou immediately felt that the aura in her body was suppressed, and as the aura was suppressed, she also began to feel cold in her body, as Ye Wujian said before, saying In the important place of the imperial city, there will be treasures or magic circles that suppress all kinds of qi in certain places. Whether it is aura or monster qi, devil qi or ghost qi, once here, it will be suppressed below a certain threshold. Inside, because of the large population here, it is also the place where the royal family and important ministers are located. The previous imperial city was almost destroyed due to the battles between high-ranking immortal cultivators and exaggerated spiritual energy disputes. Since then, the rulers They began to intentionally set up many magic circles in the city to suppress the cultivators and monsters.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to release the aura here like when fighting with the Luo sect in the cicada forest. According to Xie Yingzhou's understanding, the imperial city is similar to the area where the camp is forced to close in the game, and here, although it will There are fights, but they are not too exaggerated. It is more peaceful here, but it must be superficial. Although everyone's force is suppressed, there are also various gang struggles, conspiracies, and calculations in Zhenyang.

"There." Cang Chiu tugged at the corner of Xie Yingzhou's clothes, and pointed to a teahouse not far away. It was not time for tea, and there were only two tables of people there. There is a word "tea" written on it.

"Let's go." Knowing that Cang Chi might be hungry, Xie Yingzhou led it and walked over, found a seat at random, ordered a pot of ordinary tea, and two plates of cakes that the children ate by themselves, asking for 50 copper coins.

Xie Yingzhou felt slightly pained. As expected of the imperial capital, prices were much more expensive than Zhao Rang. If it was Zhao Rang, a pot of tea and two plates of pastries would cost 35 Wen at most.

After pouring herself a cup of tea, Xie Yingzhou thought about her next expenses.

The remaining 2365 taels on her body should not be used in daily life, because the talismans and spirit stones on her body are urgently needed to be replenished, and there are not many heavy silver bullets left, so she needs to find a craftsman to customize , although the price of heavy silver is not too high, the customized price is not cheap. Fortunately, Ye Wujian said before that the imperial capital Zhenyang has the best craftsmen in Qinzhen, and it is easy to find a suitable craftsman. It's best to sign a confidentiality clause or something at that time.

When I was in Haicheng, I asked Wu Yuan and his wife about the current price of spirit stones, and the answer I got made Xie Yingzhou speechless. The current price of the lowest-grade spirit stones is three taels of silver each, and you can’t choose attributes. As for high-quality spirit stones, they can reach up to 10 taels of gold. Wu Yuan and his wife said that more and more people practice spirit energy, which also leads to rising prices of spirit stone talismans and other items.

Silently calculating, Xie Yingzhou found that she had burned nearly a thousand taels of silver when she was exploring the Cicada Forest in Zhao Rang, and this did not include her fights with Ghost Sting and Xia Youliang later.

Xie Yingzhou choked for a while.

And at that time, Ye Wujian didn't even say a word. Could it be that she is really a rich woman?

Now Xie Yingzhou doesn't know how many spirit stones and talismans she can buy with the 2000 taels left on her body, but at least she doesn't want to pay for her daily expenses. It is best to earn from work to achieve a balance of payments. As for the spiritual stone talismans needed for the subsequent cultivation of immortality, Xie Yingzhou has to find a way to invest in financial management to make some money.

It's just that as a killer, Xie Yingzhou may be more familiar with killing people and stealing goods, but if she invests in financial management, she will really kill her. Before time travel, she was naturally not interested in things like increasing wealth, and everything was enough. Except for sending money to the nursing home, the rest is just saving the money. At most, the change she left from going to the supermarket will buy one or two scratch cards. This is her only means of managing money.

Besides, in this book world, there may be more than one weird guy who is suspected of learning from modern people. Among these people, there may be Li Jun, who is his cheap father. If she is found out, she is now in the imperial capital of Zhenyang, where 800 people are in the territory, and it is absolutely impossible for her to escape unscathed.

Thinking of this, Xie Yingzhou felt a headache. She decided not to invest in this kind of thing for the time being. She will see if there is any chance after she settles down in Zhenyang. Disaster that kind of old business.

Looking sadly at Cang Long, who had eaten most of the pastries in the wind and clouds, Xie Yingzhou raised her hand and poured a cup of tea for it, "Have a sip of tea."

It's better to eat now and order two less dishes for dinner.

In the past, Ye Wujian easily gave me so many spirit stones and talismans. How much would it cost her?

Xie Yingzhou resisted the urge to pull her hair, and cast her eyes on the nearby table, which had been a bit noisy since she just entered.

The author says:

The map of Zhenyang generally refers to Kaifeng City, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty

Setting of this book:

[1 coin = 1000 text]

[1 tael of gold = 10 taels of silver = 10 copper coins = 10000 copper coins] This is probably the exchange rate at the end of the Ming Dynasty. I am not good at math, so it is convenient to use an integer diagram.

-

Off-topic: A copper plate is about 0.15-0.3 yuan (conversion in different dynasties is different), if 1 tael of gold is converted into the current RMB, it is about 1500-3000 yuan, so Taoyuanju is 7.5-15, really It's cheap, but the per capita income and prices were low in ancient times, so you can't look at it from the current perspective.

In the following text, I will try my best to note some reference sources, but there must be omissions.
