The prosperous scenery of Yangzhou has been moved to the mouth of West Lake.

This is a poem written by Qiu Jun, a Grand Secretary of the Ming Dynasty, who was inspired by the prosperity of Hexia Village, Shanyang County, Huai'an Prefecture, when he saw the prosperity of the river. However, the West Lake in the poem is not the West Lake in Hangzhou, but the lake in front of Xiwensi Temple in Shanyang County. It was originally named Guanjia Lake. People think that the name is a bit vulgar, so they are simply called West Lake.

The origin of West Lake is somewhat similar to that of Hexia. There was also a name called Manpu at the bottom of Hexia. The ancients believed that Hexia and Hebei separated the two sides of the river. It was originally called Henan, but the terrain was high in the north and low in the south, so the name of Hexia was.

Manpu and Hexia, one commonly known as the other and the other coexisted for many years, and later the Hexia was left.

The prosperity and prosperity of the river are inseparable from two things, such as the canal transportation and the Huai salt.

The so-called canal transport is waterway transportation. In ancient times, north-south transportation and material exchanges mainly depended on the Grand Canal. During the Ming Dynasty, not to mention anything else, grain alone transported up to five million stones to the north every year. The river was between the West Lake and the Grand Canal, which was a must-pass place for the river channel, and materials from north-south were all distributed here.

The salt produced on the coast of northern Jiangsu was collectively called Huai salt. The output and quality were the best in the Ming Dynasty. The salt transport envoys sent by the imperial court settled in Hexia, and a large number of merchants came here to make a living in the salt industry. In this way, Hexia flourished.

Qiu Jun's poem was written in the early Ming Dynasty. After more than a hundred years of rest and recuperation, the river became more prosperous during the Jiajing period, and the small mountain village of the past became a large market town, where the place flourished and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

However, not everyone can feel the prosperity and stability of the river.

Shen Wen, who was half lying on Hutuo Street in Hexia, couldn't feel one of the bonuses.

The reason is very simple. Shen Wen is an outsider, not a native of Hexia. To be precise, Shen Wen does not belong to this dynasty. He comes from the 21st century.

Shen Wen's original job was Erdao dealer, which is a story in the industry. Erdao dealer is a person who sells cultural relics. He usually walks through the streets and alleys, goes to the countryside, collects some old items and makes money. At the beginning, Shen Wen was with his master because he was flexible and capable, and he became a master in less than three years and gradually became famous.

I heard that someone in Hexia Ancient Town wanted to demolish the ancient house, so I came to Taobao. I didn’t expect that it was too late. In the end, I only found a useless Shen family genealogy. Before I could read it when I returned to the hotel, I was so tired that I fell asleep. When I woke up, I arrived at Hexia in Jiajing for 32 years.

After waking up, I accidentally found that my short hair became longer. I wonder if it was the result of traveling through space. No matter what, it could save a lot of trouble. As for the clothes and origins, Shen Wen also dealt with it.

The Ming Dynasty was a country with great power and people were very knowledgeable. They were just a little curious about Shen Wen's strange costumes. They did not treat him like a monster, nor did they treat him as a heresy. As for the origin, in recent years, many people were forced to be displaced, and the Ming Dynasty's road ban system was not as strict as the early days of the founding of the country. Shen Wen compiled a tragic story, sent a little filial piety, and squeezed out a few tears. The local Baoxu Male only opened one eye and closed the other.

Black eyes, black hair, yellow skin, is a common feature of the descendants of China. If others want to pretend, they can't show it. Shen Wen quickly integrated into this society and gradually adapted to this identity.

It’s useless to cry, it’s better to face it with a smile. Fortunately, my parents are both retired civil servants, and they have medical insurance and pensions. It’s enough to hire a nanny to take care of them. Besides, there are brothers and sisters who can help take care of them.

It’s just that he disappeared, which will probably make the two elders sad.

Shen Wen can't care about so much now. First, he is open-minded, and second, he is because he is hungry.

I didn't have a grain of rice in my stomach for most of the day, and my stomach was so hungry that I was roaring.

Originally, there was a gold ring on her body. In order to save the land security these days, Xu Dai, including food, accommodation, and changing clothes, spent all his money. It is no exaggeration to say that Shen Wen’s pocket is cleaner than his face now.

"Filling soup meat buns, just steamed soup meat buns."

"Come on, roast chicken, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fragrant roast chicken."

"The freshly baked sesame cake is fragrant and crispy, and it smells fragrant with one bite."

Hexia Huzuo Street is the most prosperous street in Hexia. There are many tourists and the business is prosperous. On the not-so-wide stone road, the vendors shouted hard, smelled the tempting fragrance, and when they heard these shouts, Shen Wen couldn't help but touch his stomach that was about to be hungry, and felt even hungry.

If the gold is lost in the world, it will be a pleasure for yourself, Shen Wen fantasized in his heart.

Just when Shen Wen was imagining, a horse suddenly "necked" and screamed, someone screamed, and then heard a young woman screaming "ah". Shen Wen could see clearly that a horse carrying goods was running wildly for some reason. The sedan chair carrying the sedan chair was so scared that it shook violently. The woman in the sedan chair screamed because the sedan chair was unstable.

Shen Wen's eyes suddenly lit up: With the woman's scream, a piece of silver flew out of the sedan chair and fell to Shen Wen's feet with a "pop".

This is too effective. I just prayed that although the sky did not lose gold, silver flew out of the sedan chair.

Shen Wen had quick eyes and quickly got the money with one hand. As soon as he got it, the bead curtain of the sedan chair suddenly opened, and a moving pretty face appeared in front of Shen Wen. Just as the two of them looked at each other, Shen Wen felt that his heartbeat seemed to stop.

Her face is like pear blossoms and rain, her eyebrows are like willow leaves, her cherry mouth is beautiful, especially her beautiful big eyes, which seem to be a pool of spring water, wearing a pink cross-necked Confucian dress and combing Su Yang's most popular peony bun, her face is beautiful, her temperament is elegant and fresh, so beautiful that she is like a fairy walking down from the scroll.

This is an era without plastic surgery, and he is definitely a first-class beauty.

However, Shen Wen suddenly discovered that the beautiful woman's eyes fell on the piece of silver in her hand...

"Hey, why did you carry the sedan chair? I scared the lady, can you afford to take responsibility?"

"Miss, Miss, are you okay?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the little one doesn't know why that beast suddenly went crazy."

After running away, the maid followed him scolded the sedan chair and asked his lady if there was anything wrong. The sedan chair was afraid to argue, so he had to whisper a mistake.

The river is very prosperous, but most of the streets are stone roads about five feet wide. You can barely walk with two carriages, and there are some crowds of people coming and going. If you don’t pay attention, a collision will occur.

"I'm fine, Qing'er" A voice like a yellow oriole came from the sedan chair: "Stop the sedan chair."

The sedan chairmen responded and carefully put down the sedan chair. Qing'er quickly stepped forward and helped the lady in the sedan chair out.

When Shen Wen saw that the situation was wrong, he turned around with the money and wanted to run away. Unexpectedly, the girl had noticed Shen Wen's every move, and immediately said, "Please stay, please stay."

He was stupid if he didn't leave. Now he wanted to fill his stomach with this piece of silver. Shen Wen walked away quickly, but after just two steps, he still pretended to be confused and turned his head and said, "Miss, did you call me just now?"

There was no way, there was a sedan chairman with a big and strong face in front of him, and if he didn't turn his head, he would probably have to fist.

Beautiful girl, I feel shocked when I look at her face. Now when I see her tall figure, I feel that the beauty in front of me is simply beautiful.

The height of the people of the Ming Dynasty was not high, Shen Wen was estimated to be about 163, and the beauty in front of him was at least 168, taller than ordinary men, and half a head shorter than Shen Wen. Standing among the crowd, he looked outstanding.

The girl in pink could see clearly. The disciple in front of her was staring at her and talking, but the hand holding the silver put the silver into her sleeve without hesitation.

Damn, this money was the money for my aunt to go to Wenlou to buy soup dumplings.

"Young Master, the sedan chairman was frightened just now, and the little woman accidentally lost a piece of silver. I wonder if he had seen it." The girl in pink dress smiled like a flower and said with a voice like a yellow oriole.

The beautiful voice is more beautiful, the words are gentle, the smile is like a flower, and the girl with great lethality to men. The girl in pink dress believes that as long as she is not a sarcastic heart, she will choose to return the money to herself.

But he underestimated Shen Wen's face too much, or she didn't expect that food would be tempting to people when people were hungry. Shen Wen was just a little soft-hearted and soon said firmly: "I didn't see it."

If you don’t get the money to eat, you will probably be the first person to die of starvation through time.

Beauties and food, Shen Wen must choose beauties in normal times, but now he is about to faint from hunger, so he naturally puts the food in front, that is, he will keep it for money first.

If a person starves to death, it will be useless to win the favor of a beautiful woman. Besides, now that I am so down and out, the chances of others taking a fancy to me... are extremely low.

The girl in pink skirt twitched her pretty face, biting her red lips lightly and said, "Young Master, the piece of silver in your sleeve belongs to the little girl. Please give it back to me."

No, can you afford a maid, a sedan chair, and still care about this small piece of silver?

Shen Wen was a little helpless, his eyes turned, and soon raised his head and chest out, and said with the smile he thought was the most handsome: "Miss, I'll take the liberty to ask, is the young student handsome? Well, or, am I elegant and handsome? "

Qing'er, who was beside her, couldn't help laughing. The girl in pink dress made Shen Wen feel a little amused and crying. She thought it was the first time she had seen such a shameless person, but in full view of everyone, she reluctantly said: "Young Master is handsome."

"That's all right," Shen Wen said seriously: "You said, how could I be greedy for your money like a handsome person? Miss, you are not... haven't woken up."

The girl in pink skirt was furious. Unexpectedly, she underestimated the thickness of Shen Wen's face again. Before she could speak, the sedan chair with a fleshy face held Shen Wen's collar in one hand and said fiercely: "Bold, you rascal, how dare you take the money from my lady?"

I wanted to scare Shen Wen and ask him to pay back the money back obediently, but Shen Wen suddenly shouted like a pig: "Come, come, someone is robbing the money in broad daylight."

There were many people around him, but Shen Wen's yell attracted more people all of a sudden. Two arresters brought by a captain came over. The head of the captain asked with a serious look on his face: "What happened?"
