Chapter 41
Xincheng County is more than 40 miles away from Zhengrong Village, and it takes more than half an hour to ride an ox cart, so it was only half an hour when Qianwu and the others arrived.

Surrounded by mountains on all sides, Xincheng County is a geomantic treasure land that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.Flowing through the Hongshui River, it is a tributary of the Xiangjiang River, so the canal was also opened the year before last.It is many times bigger than Ningjiang Town, and it extends in all directions, so the business is even more prosperous.

There are two famous places in Xincheng County.It is the Tongtian Rock on Cuiping Mountain. Its stone peaks are surrounded by a screen, and there is a hole on the top that reaches the sky. There are cave temples that have gone through several dynasties, and there are many calligraphy treasures left by the great Confucians of the previous dynasties. It integrates natural landscapes and cultural landscapes. Known as the No. [-] Grotto in Southwest China.There is also Shanxiang Academy, which has a quiet and elegant environment and has produced many high-ranking officials and scholars. Although it is a county school, it has the same teaching level and qualifications as the prefectural school.

"Wow! Really bustling!"

"It's much, much bigger than the town, it's so lively!" Qianxue and Qianshuang couldn't see enough, and they even stretched their necks to look in.

That's right, it's much better for those who leave the city early, not to mention the long line of people waiting to enter the city, and this is only one of the three city gates, so there are not many people in the city.The noise at the gate of the city has stopped, and the noise in the city has spread far and wide. It is estimated that business will be very easy to do.

"Of course, this is similar to Fucheng." Qian Bao said indifferently.

"A large part of this is due to the Yuan family." Rong Yubo continued to point out, but frowned slightly.

"Oh?" Qian Wu is really not familiar with the county seat, she has never been here and rarely heard of it, she only knows that Mo Fuqing's clan uncle is the county magistrate here.Because there are too many ethnic minorities, it is really necessary to understand the local talents to manage the area, and the native-born aboriginals who do their part are the most suitable.Of course, if the imperial court dared to do this and was not afraid that they would make some small moves, it must be confident that they could deal with him.But what does this have to do with the Yuan family? !

"After the opening of the canal the year before last, almost all the shipping out of the county was done by Yuan's family. The water journey was short and fast, and there were more businesses coming and going, and many of the businesses were still owned by Yuan's family. The scattered merchants heard that There are quite a few people who said they were maliciously suppressed." Although they were suppressed by the Yuan family in Ningjiang Town, they would still ask for information.Especially regarding the Yuan family, the Xue family has made a lot of moves these days. It is estimated that the Yuan family's eyes and ears have reported the news, and they don't know what they will do next. female.

"Oh, this gentleman can't shout loudly. Be careful that the Yuan family will get into trouble if they hear it. They have a branch that has moved to Xincheng County." An old man carrying a burden waited behind their ox cart. Entering the city, looking at their faces, I couldn't help reminding in a low voice.

It seems that this branch of the Yuan family has become a bully not long after moving here, and even the peasants at the bottom have heard of it or have already suffered from it?
"Old man is right." Uncle Yu thanked him with a half bow.

"Old man, what did you bring to the city to exchange money? It's a bit late to enter the city at this time." Qian Wu couldn't help being curious, it would be really late if this point was set up, and she wouldn't be able to see it if it was covered by the burden.

"Hehe, this little doll is so smart! Grandpa's burden is medicinal materials, so you can just send them to Wancao Tang for weighing, so you don't have to come so early." Medicinal materials are old and expensive things. It's a craft, and it's much taller than farming.

"Oh, grandpa is really amazing! Wancaotang is the best." Of course, the collection of medicines is also the strictest.They went to Wancaotang. Wancaotang also has a history of 200 years, and this one in Xincheng County is just its branch. The most powerful thing about it is not how good the doctor's medical skills are, but the largest variety of medicinal materials in it. The most complete pharmacy, even the medicine of the palace is provided by it.

"Haha, it's okay. My family has been selling their medicines for decades, but it's not their exclusive medicine farmers. Their exclusive medicine farmers are amazing. Even in famine years, there is food to eat." The old man yearns for it all.It seems that it is still very good to treat others to plant herbs.

"Let's also go to Wancaotang to buy some herbs." We dropped by along the way.

"Haha, then we are really destined."

"My husband can put the burden on our car so that we won't get tired."

"Ouch, how does this work?"

"It's okay, I'll take a few steps empty-handed."

"Hey, thank you very much. Scholars are gentle and courteous."

It doesn't matter much, uncle, do you remember that there are words called nerds and gentle scums? !
"Sister, we want to go shopping by ourselves." Qianxue held her mouth and looked at Qianwu with wet eyes.

"You are still young, beware of bad guys." Yuan's family is in the county, although they don't know each other.

"Let's go. Let Brother Bao accompany us. It won't delay your business."

Qian Wu felt that she was rejected, the two children were inseparable from her before, but this time she chose Qian Bao, her fragile little heart was twitching in pain.That's all, the integrity of the little baby is more fragile than the heart.

"Then you go, remember to listen to Brother Bao, don't make trouble."

"Okay!" The two little babies promised in unison.

Is it too late to pretend to be good now?Why does Qianwu feel so sad and uneasy?She shook her head helplessly, thinking too much.
