Ta-ta-ta!
The carriage stopped at the door of the tavern, and the servant knelt on the ground.
Chen Chengye stepped down, smiling in the spring breeze, and greeted Zhou Yi who was opening the door.
"Shopkeeper Sun, long time no see!"
"Long time no see."
Zhou Yi smiled and cupped his hands, and drank a pot of wine from the wine vat with the word "Chen" on it. "Mr. Chen, it's so light. Osmanthus was specially added during the brewing to reduce the spiciness and make it sweet again!"
Chen Jiye After tasting it, he praised it repeatedly and took out a stack of redemption tickets from his sleeve.
"Thank you to the shopkeeper for reminding me a few days ago. Not only did the Chen family not suffer a loss, they also took the opportunity to make a fortune. A small thank you would be disrespectful!"
Zhou Yi waved his hands and declined. "Mr. Chen, don't be polite. Do you think we are short of money?"
"Same."
Chen Jiye smiled and said, "The way the shopkeeper walks, sits, and sleeps, and how much he eats and wears, all indicate his family's origins. Especially the martial arts is so profound, which is rare in the world, but it scared me and Lao Lu."
The reason why the Chen family and Lu Family can inherit this far is only because of their deep family background. What is more important is their diligent practice of martial arts.
Force is the basis for ensuring the wealth of the old wealth. Otherwise, the emerging Aristocratic Clan would have carved it up. No matter how powerful the machine's productivity is, it can't be faster than grabbing it directly.
"Martial arts are passed down in my family, so practice whatever you want."
Zhou Yi said, "I would also like to thank Mr. Chen for sending me the storybook. There are more than two thousand volumes, which is enough to read for a lifetime."
Chen Jiye nodded slightly, obviously understanding Zhou Yi's change of topic, and was too sensible to continue asking about the origin of martial arts.
He had already thoroughly checked the details of Zhou Yi, and found out that he was a Daoist priest White Cloud Temple. He could not find out which Daoist temple it was, so it was probably Daoist Certificate that he bought with incense money.
Another layer of identity is Sun Wu, Beijing Yamen household registration.
Chen Jiye I have never heard of the Aristocratic Clan with the surname Sun. He should be the little Lineage who was lucky enough to inherit the relics of the previous dynasty.
The previous dynasty used force to establish the country, and Emperor Taishi single-handedly suppressed Yunzhou for hundreds of years. After the fall of the Qing Kingdom, the inheritance was scattered everywhere. Including the rapid rise of today's emerging Lineage, they rely not only on Great Ancestor Zhou and machines, but also on the inheritance of Qi, blood and martial arts.
The benevolence, righteousness and morality that the rich people talk about must be ancient. If they can really kill the emerging Lineage with force, they will definitely not be merciful.
These two identities are nothing in the eyes of Chen Jiye. Many branches of the Chen family have also changed their names.
The key is, Sun Wu lives in the former residence of the immortal Ningde Ward!
This is the reason why Chen Jiye came to the tavern. Chen Estate is located in the east of the city Yongchang Ward. He has never come to such a second-rate place because of his identity. However, I heard from a servant in the house that someone was staying in the Immortal's former residence, so I went all the way to the tavern to find out.
Chen Jiye looked at shopkeeper Sun greeting the guests, shook his head slightly and sighed.
"It's a pity that my surname is not Zhou."
We learned from Chen Lineage that his ancestors traced back to the Holy Emperor of Daqian, during which he met Immortal Opportunity several times.
Today's obsession with collecting ancient books is fundamentally derived from the fear of death and the pursuit of immortality.
Over the past few decades, Chen Jiye has collected many classics about the Qian Dynasty. Through connecting clues and guessing, he thought he had discovered the historical truth.
The Holy Emperor of Daqian established his country and ascended the throne, relying on the support of immortals!
This conclusion is contrary to current historical records and is not recognized by historians. After all, Chen Jiye is reading unofficial history.
"The most painful thing in life is not getting what you want."
Chen Jiye's eyes were complicated. "Perhaps the immortal's former residence was just a place where our ancestors climbed over the wall to play and met a Daoist who could tell stories. How can there be any immortals in this world?"
The new era is rolling in with the roar of machines. Chen Jiye no longer believes in the legends of strange things. After all, even Buddhism and Daoism have begun to change.
Believers believe in doctrines, not gods!
Zhou Yi can't guess Chen Jiye's complex emotions, nor can he cast spells to explore people's Spirit Soul, just like a real tavern owner welcoming guests.
"Mr. Zhu is here, please take a seat."
"Two bottles of wine to take away? Wait a moment, sir!"
"Boss Zhang will bring the dishes for a few days, and the cook will be there later."
"..."
Pear Blossom White The taste is the best in Beijing. Those who drink good wine will never forget it. Come and drink two pots early in the morning.
Zhou Yi was too busy to entertain guests, like a spinning top, and the solitary fairy spirit in his body became increasingly sparse and he looked more and more like a mortal.
When people are busy, time flies by.
I went back to Kunlun Grotto-Heaven to practice at night, leaving only a phantom in the courtyard. I was busy entertaining guests during the day, and unknowingly the tavern had been open for half a year.
Chen Chengye, Lu Bo and others are the thousand-year-old Aristocratic Clan who are famous in Yunzhou. Because they often come to the tavern to eat, they gradually attract many other Aristocratic Clan children. And because of Pear Blossom White's unique quality, it gradually becomes a gathering place for old wealth.
The rich men all wore similar attire, including square scarves, long gowns, walking sticks, and clattering gold pocket watches.
The fabric is naturally of the highest quality. The Lineage logo is embroidered on an inconspicuous part of the gown. The crutch looks like wood but is actually solid iron, inlaid with jade the size of a pigeon egg.
A gold pocket watch is not a machine product. Anyone who uses mass-produced products will be ostracized and despised. It must be handmade by craftsmen!
Regardless of all the gold and silver treasures all over the body, rich people never talk about money when they get together. It is very vulgar and they must talk about inheritance and ancestors.
For example, if two strangers meet, they must first take stock of their respective ancestors. Your ancestor was a county king three hundred years ago, and my ancestor was a prince five hundred years ago. That means he is a head above you!
As the old money gathers together, adhering to the principle that the old and the new never meet, the emerging Lineage never comes Yu Jian Tavern.
When the two kinds of people meet, they laugh at each other. One says that the little bumpkin is uneducated, and the other says that he is too old to die.
Yu Jian Tavern was also targeted because of this. The servant of Ningde Ward came to check the accounts aggressively and said that someone had reported that he had underpaid commercial taxes.
Zhou Yi took out a gold ingot and easily kneaded it into a standard gold coin in front of the servant.
Using his fingertips instead of a carving knife, he swiped a brush on the surface of the gold coin, and his face was painted on it in a matter of seconds.
Since then.
Ningde Ward's servant never came to the tavern again. Occasionally he would come off duty to drink, and he would change into casual clothes.
Zhou Yi discovered that the old and new Lineage were in the same situation, but the Daoist priest was able to stand between Zhou Xuan and the two. After asking Chen Jiye for the reason, he couldn't help but curse.
"These guys have disgraced our ancestors!"
The Daoist priest White Cloud Temple inherited the inheritance of the Dan Ding Sect and Earthfire Palace and discovered many formulas from the classics. For example, a boring monk discovered that limestone was crushed and then calcined while refining weapons.
In the eyes of immortal cultivators, this formula is not as important as the refining tips of low-grade Mystic Item.
The Daoist priest obtained a large amount of gold and silver wealth through the formula, and then began to tamper with the sages' scriptures on refining weapons and alchemy.
Immortals and gods have not appeared in the world for hundreds of years, and they have tasted the huge benefits of machines and commerce. Daoism tries to explain everything in the world through Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and to explain the rationality of machines. So far, the results are good.
This explanation gives the new Lineage a foothold. After all, the souls of the world have been ruled by Buddhism, Daoism, and the Four Books and Five Classics for countless years.
Lao Cai can reluctantly accept it, comforting himself that what he has learned has not been abandoned by the times!
City Patrol Bureau.
The imperial court established a new department less than fifty years old, responsible for patrolling the city during the day and maintaining public security and stability.
The emergence of a new department must be an urgent need of the situation. If the imperial court decides to establish City Patrol Bureau, the Military Department and the Imperial Government can grind it into dust.
Great Ancestor Zhou successfully promoted the machine, business was unprecedentedly prosperous, and the floating population was increasing.
When there are more people, there will naturally be more cases. The Bingma Division and the Jing Yamen are too busy, so they leave petty thefts, fights and other trivial matters to the City Patrol Bureau to deal with.
City Patrol Bureau cell in the east of the city.
The guard on duty had a hard day's work and fell asleep in his chair.
Bai Shiyu took out a piece of wire from his mouth, poked it in the keyhole, and the door opened with a click.
The prisoner in the cell next to him was stunned. He pointed at the door lock and then at his mouth, indicating that he dared to shout loudly without opening the door.
Bai Shiyu repeated his old trick and helped the prisoner open the cell door.
The prisoner looked happy and was about to take advantage of the darkness to escape when he felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck and passed out.
"You dare to take advantage of Mr. Bai!"
As he spoke, he held the prisoner by the back of his neck and put him on the seat opposite the officer, and used his feet to run away with Qinggong.
