Everything Li Jie did today was seen by the blacksmith, but the blacksmith didn't covet the sugar making method. Money was like a floating cloud in his eyes, not worth mentioning.
If he was really the kind of person who regarded wealth as his life, why would he live in seclusion in Niujia Village?
With his ability, as long as he is willing to surrender to any force, money, power, and beauty are all at his fingertips. But he is tired of that kind of life and just wants to live a normal life.
'That's it, that's all, why are you thinking so much? Even if this kid makes a lot of money every day, what does it have to do with me? It's better to go back to sleep, rest, rest.'
'Well? That sense of voyeurism is gone.'
Not long after the blacksmith left, Li Jie's spiritual sense suddenly relaxed. The vague sense of peeping made him feel like a ray on his back. Although he didn't feel any malice in it, he was still a little uncomfortable being watched by others.
So comfortable.
This feeling had started not long after he left the blacksmith's house, so it became clear who the person following him was.
Besides the blacksmith whose identity is unknown and whose purpose is unknown, who else could be there?
Of course, there is another possibility that his spiritual sense is wrong, but this possibility is very slim. After experiencing so many dungeon worlds, Li Jie's spiritual sense has been several times higher than that of ordinary people. Even if his current cultivation level is low, he cannot directly discover what is going on behind the scenes.
However, Li Jie still chose to trust his intuition.
After all, you can never go wrong if you are careful.
Even though he was careful, some things still couldn't avoid his surveillance. All Li Jie could do was to act as clumsy as possible, but according to the current situation, there were some things Li Jie had to do, and it was inevitable that he would discover some things.
Clues.
Fortunately, the development of things was exactly as Li Jie expected. Since he did not choose to show up now, he would not expose these things in the future.
At most, he would be a little curious. Curiosity is normal. It would be abnormal if he was not curious. Li Jie had already thought of an excuse. As long as he couldn't help but ask questions, he would 'fool' him with the words he expected.
The illness comes like a mountain falling, and the illness goes away like a thread spinning.
Under Li Jie's careful care, Mu Nianci's physical condition improved day by day. During this period, Li Jie went to Furong Town again, firstly to grab medicine, and secondly to sell some icing sugar.
No matter how prosperous Furong Town is, it is still just a small town. There is only one candy shop. In order not to attract attention, Li Jie only spent 2 taels of sugar frosting. He planned to wait for Mu Nianci to get better for the rest.
He went to Lin'an to take action again.
Lin'an Mansion, as the seat of the Southern Song Dynasty court (the place where the emperor is located), is not only the political center of the south, but also the economic center and cultural center. It has been nearly a hundred years since Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty decided to defy all opinions and move from Jiankang to Lin'an.
.
The warm breeze makes tourists drunk, and they call Hangzhou Bianzhou!
Just like what is written in the poem, Lin'an Prefecture, as a city, has experienced the governance of five generations of emperors: Gao, Xiao, Guang, Ning, and Li. The city's construction has been changing with each passing day, and commerce and trade has developed. Its prosperity is no less than that of Kaifeng Prefecture in Tokyo, and even slightly exceeds it.
.
Lin'an Prefecture has a permanent population of more than 900,000. If the floating population is included, the population of this prosperous city exceeds one million. At the same time, London only had 20,000 people and Paris only 40,000. It is the largest and most prosperous city in the West.
Venice only has a population of 100,000, and Lin'an Prefecture is also the largest and most prosperous city in the world.
Although Li Jie has not yet gone to see the prosperity of Lin'an Prefecture with his own eyes, the four pictures of the capital (Imperial City Picture, Capital City Picture, West Lake Picture, and Zhejiang Picture) were restored based on the "Xianheng Lin'an Chronicle" compiled in the late Southern Song Dynasty.
, interested book friends can go search it out), and you can vaguely see its prosperity.
If you have a good meal, you are not afraid of being late. He is looking forward to his trip to Lin'an. This is also the charm of the system. He can appreciate different scenery, meet different people, and experience some experiences he has never tried before.
Half a month passed by in a flash. Mu Nianci recovered well and was able to go to the ground. It was estimated that she would be back to her original state in about a week. Li Jie made a decision silently in his heart.
It’s time to put a trip to Lin’an on the agenda!
He went to Lin'an this time not only to earn his first pot of gold, but also to pave the way for the future. However, due to his age, Li Jie did not plan to start his money-making plan immediately in the past two years.
The two-year buffer time is, on the one hand, to strengthen his own strength. For him, there are almost no bottlenecks on the road before becoming a grand master. This period of time is enough for him to barely be able to protect himself.
On the other hand, it is also to make the body grow faster. According to the appearance of a child now, it is okay to buy and sell on a small scale. Once the scale of the business becomes too large, it is really eye-catching and does not fit with his cautious temperament.
Now that Li Jie has come to this era, he will not watch the land of China being massacred by aliens. However, the name of the Small Imperial Court in the Southern Song Dynasty has been abolished. Instead of entering the officialdom and becoming a fake watchmaker, it is better to build a small account and practice again.
.
It all comes with a little bit of money!
If there is no money, where will the food come from? Where will the soldiers come from? Where will the weapons come from?
Turning the tide can't be done with just a little money. Li Jie had already made a plan before entering the dungeon, and making sugar was just his first step.
However, there will definitely be discrepancies between the information found in later generations and historical records. Moreover, this copy is not a traditional historical copy. No matter how big the discrepancy is, he will not be surprised.
Therefore, this trip to Lin'an is imperative. The ideal situation is that he can stay in Lin'an Mansion for a few more days. However, considering Mu Nianci at home, Li Jie still plans to go back and forth on the same day. If the situation does not allow it, at most
Return the next day.
Sure enough, when Li Jie proposed to go out again, Mu Nianci expressed strong opposition.
"No, Guo'er, it was already very risky for you to go out alone last time. I won't agree to anything you say this time. Besides, my mother's health has mostly recovered. Wait two days and I'll be with you.
go."
"Mom, the rice at home is almost exhausted. What's left is not enough for us two to eat for two days."
"Mom, don't object in a hurry. Let's not talk about the food for now. The key point is that your medicine is gone! You can tolerate the food and it will pass, but when you stop the medicine?
"The doctor has told you that you cannot be cured of this disease, and the medicine must not stop it."
When it came to her illness, Mu Nianci couldn't help but hesitate. She really wanted to get better from this illness soon. She was supposed to take care of the child, but now the situation is just the opposite. During the time she was sick, the child had been taking care of her. The key is
The child was still so young, so every time she thought about this, she couldn't help but feel distressed.
Li Jie saw that Mu Nianci was a little moved, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said.
"Moreover, with the experience last time, there will be no problem for my son to go to Furong Town this time. With my skills, ordinary thieves will not be able to please me."
"Besides, the child is following the official path, which is very safe."
