Generally speaking, people's understanding of history comes from books, and the history in books comes from official official history, so people's impression of history is stereotyped, serious and heavy.

History should be serious, but that is only for future generations, while people in history themselves are warm.

The people who are living in the Song Dynasty will not have thought that they will become history one day, because they are living in the present and will never want to live in books and paper for future generations to study.

Therefore, the "history" presented to Luo Yongsheng made Luo Yongsheng feel a little unreal.

This is completely different from the ancient times he imagined.

What is imagination?

Luo Yongsheng felt that the Song Dynasty in history, or every feudal dynasty, should live in difficulties, waiting for him, a time traveler who spans thousands of years and comes from the "civilized" society to save him and act as the savior of the people who survived the cruel rule of the feudal dynasty.

The people in ancient times should live a rigid and numb life, like walking corpses all day long, without mood or rituals, so simple that they are like fools and idiots. Modern people always like to have a sense of superiority.

After all, we are still alive. The ancients are dead.

When he arrived in Yangzhou, Luo Yongsheng thought so because he did see too many suffering people along the way who could not survive. When he arrived in Huzhou, he also thought so because Huzhou also had them. Even when he arrived in Hongzhou, the only two wealthy city in Jiangnan, there were still many suffering people, especially after Wang Jun rebelled.

A large number of Sichuan people fled to Hongzhou and were deliberately taken in by Luo Yongsheng. These fled people used the grief they experienced personally to remind Luo Yongsheng that this was a tragic ancient era and had not yet worn the cloak of civilization.

Therefore, Luo Yongsheng has always looked down on the Zhao Song family and these feudal dynasties that have become ancient and become dust.

But now when I arrived in Tokyo and saw the real lives of the people in Tokyo with my own eyes, Luo Yongsheng realized that he was indeed wrong.

What kind of social system and how highly developed capital prosperity is needed to create such a Tokyo, so that the people of Tokyo can live such a life at this moment?

Just a sentence is a sentence filled with too many biases and stereotypes?

The Alum Building covers a vast area and attracts tens of thousands of customers. No matter how big the CBD shopping mall is in later generations, it is just like this. There are 72 main stores in Tokyo.

In other words, this city has 72 CBDs of all sizes!

Of course, this is a bit exaggerated, but it is impossible for a market to be called a main store and to have a privileged market day and night, and it is impossible for it to be just a fly restaurant with two storefront stores. At least it must be a large restaurant like the four-hai Fishermen in Hongzhou. It is a place with storytellers and actors on site.

Being able to afford so many main stores, the quality and level of life of the people in Tokyo can be seen.

A glimpse of the whole leopard can be seen.

Just relying on the sentence "The Northern Song Dynasty is prosperous and the country is prosperous" in history books, we can speculate that this era and the people living in this era are obviously not good.

Nowadays, ladies have started to visit male prostitutes and go shopping in the beehive!

Luo Yongsheng did not look down on women, but the prosperity of a country must be reflected first in the degree of corruption of men. After all, men are always more likely to gain social status and dominance in the economy than women.

Take Luo Yongsheng himself as an example. He can eat, drink and have banquets every day in Hongzhou, and keep talking, accompanying officials like Chen Li, businessmen like Huang Sitong and Hou San to visit brothels, hold a beautiful prostitute in his arms and listen to music and have fun, and can spend dozens of money in these places.

This just shows that Hongzhou is a prosperous and stable city with a safe external environment and a comfortable internal environment.

Without both internal and external environments, how can there be a soil for corruption to breed?

There will never be these places where people can pursue spiritual pleasure when they are in danger, and where soldiers are hanging their heads and iron hooves are knocking on the door.

There will only be killing, adultery, indulgence and destruction.

Therefore, the corrupt environment that men can enjoy can indirectly reflect whether the city they live in is prosperous and stable.

However, when there are places where women are corrupt and weathered in a city, it is not prosperity.

But a high prosperity!

Luo Yongsheng, who traveled from modern times, has only seen so-called clubs with "male accompanies" in front-tier and provincial capital cities, but has never heard of them in any county or general urban areas.

There is currently a so-called hive in Tokyo. In a sense, it has become more prosperous than the modern generalized county towns and urban areas a thousand years later.

What a shocking discovery.

People living in this city, both men and women, have begun to pursue higher levels of enjoyment besides survival.

That is the enjoyment of satisfying desires!

To put it in a more elegant way, it is called pursuing happiness.

After eating, I was worried about the last meal, but those who lived today and looked forward to tomorrow would not pursue such a vague need.

Everyone has the right to pursue happiness, even for modern people, ancient people.

The era they are living in is not history but the present.

So it doesn't need to be serious, nor should it be serious.

If you don’t have the Alum Tower, you will come to Tokyo City; if you don’t have the Tokyo City, you will come to the Song Dynasty.

In addition to opening Luo Yongsheng's eyes, the one-day tour not only opens his eyes, but also has a new understanding of this era or history.

The ancients were living people. The era they jointly created was also an era of flesh and blood, an era that was no different from modern itself. The so-called difference is only the difference between technological productivity, and by no means the difference between human hearts.

Which of the people like Hou San, Huang Sitong, Chen Li, and Zhang Yan is related to the word "Simple"?

Which Tokyo women who are shopping in the beehives have to do with chastity?

Which monk selling meat in the Alum Building has something to do with kind-eyed eyes?

It’s not that Luo Yongsheng is criticizing these people for being ugly, but it just means that these people are real people, living in the world, doing the world’s world, adapting to human nature, and in line with the cycle of reincarnation.

Good and evil are all him, and good and evil make him.

After dinner, Luo Yongsheng fell into deep thought in the inn's wing room. He had to contemplate and seriously sort out his life plan from scratch.

Assuming that one day, I rebelled and captured the city of Bianliang in Tokyo, bringing the so-called new life to the millions of people living in this city, is it called salvation for the people in this city?

Is your institutional theories and ideas that have surpassed one thousand years must be correct?

The people in this city live a very happy and stable life. Where do they need Luo Yongsheng to save them, and how can they be saved?

Even though they are living on the edge of the abyss, they will be welcomed by Wanyan Juzhen's iron hoof and humiliation in more than a hundred years.

But who cares?

"From then on, I regard myself as a real person who lives in the Song Dynasty. My name is Luo Yongsheng, a native of Dingzhou, Hebei, and a person born in the fifth year of Taiping Xingguo."

Lying on the bed, Luo Yongsheng muttered silently.

"I was born in this era, grew up in this era, and in the future I created my own era, that's all."
