"Is this the capital?"

In the exquisite and spacious carriage, Lin Qianwei looked at the bustling wharf and streets of Tongzhou through the curtains, and sighed. This was her first time to arrive in the capital. Just like all those who first came to the capital, she admired the prosperity of the capital. It was not inferior to the giant city in Jiangnan.

In the carriage, Qing'er and Yun Yao's two maids were also shocked and sighed. They turned their heads to look at Jia Huan, their earrings shaking. The two beautiful girls said, "Third Master, girl, this..." People these days have a strong local complex. They basically think that their hometown is the best place.

Jia Huan stroked Lin Qianwei's black hair with a smile, hugged her waist with the flow, and said, "Qing'er, Yun Yao, don't be surprised. We have a lot of time to slowly understand this city, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

In the early morning of October 22, Jia Huan entered the city from Fuchengmen in the brilliant morning glow in the sky and arrived at Jia Mansion on Ningrong Street, Sishifang.

…

…

The news of Jia Huan returning home soon spread. As usual, Jia Huan went to see Mu Jia, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Zhao and others first. Jia Lian, Jia Rong, Jia Qiang and others came to see him. He kept receiving various news.

When Jia Zheng came back in the evening, Jia Huan came to visit Jia Zheng again. At this point, all the etiquette was over. Although Jia Zheng complained in front of Jia Lian that Jia Huan was a humiliating family style, he did not criticize Jia Huan in front of Jia Huan, but instead chatted with Jia Huan about the fact that Wang Ziteng was awarded a title for his military achievements, so he let Jia Huan go back.

After coming out of the east crossing courtyard, the lights in the Jia Mansion were lit. The night was shrouded in the Jia Mansion. The cold wind swept across the treetops. Xiangling and Ruyi each carried a lantern and walked beside Jia Huan. Looking at the stone road, Jia Huan sighed: "If there is an electric light, there is no need to make a lantern."

Xiangling and Ruyi both burst into laughter. Xiangling, who had a gentle and quiet temperament, whispered: "San Master, why did you go to Jiangnan? You sigh more and more?"

Jia Huan smiled gently and said, "That's because reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. If possible, I would like to write a book now and make a dangerous statement in the prosperous era." This time, he took Vivi to travel in Jiangnan, and he saw the real situation of all walks of life. He was very unoptimistic. Various social contradictions are becoming increasingly acute.

This is a necessity for population growth and economic development. This is a process that all dynasties have to go through. However, if the ruling class of the Zhou Dynasty turned a blind eye to this, then the result will be a rise: wouldn’t it be a king, prince, general, and minister?

Xiangling blinked, but she couldn't understand.

Jia Huan smiled and said nothing more. He remembered the chat with Hui merchant leaders Wang Heting and Ma Juntai when he was in Yangzhou. He hoped that Hui merchants could increase their investment in the "manufacturing industry" and drive changes in the textile industry.

In the current social situation, pure financial industry cannot beat industrial capital. In his time and space, the Shanxi Shangpinhao used its blood and tears to reveal this point. At this stage of the First Industrial Revolution, the power of industry was very strong. Otherwise, Britain would not have become an island country with an empire.

Enter the Grand View Garden from the corner gate behind the courtyard east, then walk eastward through Zilingzhou, head north, and head straight to the North Park.

When she returned home, Jia Huan put away all the thoughts in her heart and talked to Sister Bao in the room.

When I came back in the morning, I had seen both wives and concubines. At this time, it was the time for the two to be alone. Amid the chat, the winter night became more and more quiet, and everything outside the window was silent.

At this time, the light of the candle jumped. Baochai got up and cut the lights. Her bright face was like a peony flower with a national fragrance under the candlelight. Her almond eyes were as clear as water. She looked at the table and picked up a pen to write a letter while chatting with her, Jia Huan smiled sweetly.

…

…

The next morning, Jia Huan went to Xiaoxiang Pavilion to see Daiyu. Daiyu was talking in the courtyard with Xiangyun.

Xiangyun smiled and avoided. She was a very smart girl. Although she never lingered her children's love, she still understood some things for the engaged girls. Judging from her posture, Brother Huan and Sister Lin were interested in each other.

Meeting Daiyu was a different situation. Jia Huan informed the details of worshiping Lin Ruhai and his wife in Suzhou, and said: "Sister, I will take you back to Suzhou next Qingming Festival."

Standing by the window in the room, Daiyu was wearing an embroidered pink skirt, with a graceful figure, and chuckled: "Brother Huan, where will you leave next Qingming Festival? You forgot that next year is the third year. The second and fourth sisters are about to get married."

Jia Huan rubbed his eyebrows, yelled, and said, "Ha, sister, I forgot this." In the 14th year of Yongzhi, Jia She and Jia Jing died one after another. Yingchun and Xichun were mourned for three years and were not allowed to get married. It will expire next year.

Daiyu laughed "pu" and held a round fan to cover her mouth. She looked at Bai Jiahuan with a coquettish look, and said with no reason: "Maybe someone is too beautiful, and you have been wandering in Jiangnan for several months and forget all these things."

Jia Huan smiled awkwardly. Lin Meimei didn't like Vivi. She gently held Daiyu's little hand and whispered: "Pin'er, there are some things I will never forget."

He has been working hard to ask the emperor to give him a marriage, how can he forget? Issuing silver coins is the first step.

…

…

Jia Huan replied to Pang Ze last night, asking them to come to Danyunxuan to talk to him on the 24th.

After leaving the east of the city, the official road was full of holes and it was very difficult to walk. The Ministry of Works did not repair it. Jia Huan thought to himself and headed towards Danyunxuan.

He came out of Xiaoxiang Pavilion yesterday and unconsciously walked to the hillside of Damo Temple. After thinking about it, he would go up and visit Qin Keqing. Then, he chatted casually and chatted with Keqing until noon. Time passed too quickly.

As a well-known high-end club in Beijing, Dan Yunxuan has a total of twelve small courtyards. Basically, they are in short supply and need to book in advance. However, there is no problem for Jia Huan to temporarily take a small courtyard to entertain guests.

In a second-floor water pavilion near the lake, Jia Huan and Pang Ze drink with each other, without any silk and bamboo.

Pang Ze was wearing a dark blue shirt from a scholar and said, "Ziyu, your uncle may not be the same as you. You have to think of a solution in advance and tie him to your ship. In addition, can you push him now on the King of Chu?"

Jia Huan raised his glass and had a glass of wine with Pang Ze, and said with a smile: "Shi Yuan, I only heard that I was forced to kick people off the boat, but I didn't hear that I was forcibly tied up on the boat! We can't take all the political interests! Let him go. The King of Chu is not in a hurry, wait a little longer."

Now the advantage of the King of Chu is not as strong as the King of Jin, and there will be no internal division. It will take a lot of effort to kill the King of Chu Party. You can wait a little longer. When the King of Chu's advantages are obvious and he starts to consider dividing the spoils, it is the best opportunity for him to push down the King of Chu. The political game of the Zhou Dynasty did not mean that everyone raised their hands to vote, and the minority obeyed the majority. Instead, the emperor could make a decision with one thought. Emperor Yongzhi was still relatively strong.

As for whether Wang Ziteng can be a demon? Jia Zheng is now a communist of the government and is not afraid of this. He can draw a clear line with the Wang family at any time.

Pang Ze nodded and said, "Then let's wait."

Jia Huan smiled and did not talk to his friends about the autumn examination or spring examination. He was afraid that he would stimulate him. He changed the topic, "Shi Yuan, there is a good show in the palace on the Holy Birthday in November!"

Holy Birthday is the emperor's birthday. Emperor Yongzhi's birthday is in November. It is obvious that King Jin and King Chu want to score points, which is a good opportunity to show off.
