Chanzhou is the most important city in the northern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Together with Xiongzhou and Datong, it is also known as the Three Great Passes of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Over the years, the power of the Zhou Dynasty has been declining, and the Liao Kingdom in the north has repeatedly invaded the border.
The Zhou army was beaten so hard that they could only huddle in the major cities and defend to the death.
The form of Chanzhou is better than that of Datong and Xiongzhou.
Because the largest river in the north, the Huanglong River, passes around the city and is more effective than any moat.
Therefore, there is a common saying among the people.
Huanglong protects Chanzhou, and An'ding is at the forefront.
Because most of Anding County is located in a large river valley formed by the diversion of the Huanglong River, the alluvial plain is extremely fertile and has convenient water transportation.
As its name suggests, the county is stable, not only safe, but also the richest place in the north.
A gathering of humanities, it is the pearl of the North.
Shen Lin hugged the petite and cute Liu Chu'er, rode a skinny horse, and kicked into the south gate of Anding.
The officers and soldiers guarding the gate were lazily hiding in the shadows to enjoy the cool air.
Shen Lin threw five coins in, and the man waved his hand and let him go.
"Anding County is just across the Huanglong River bend that is more than ten miles wide, and the Liao people are on the opposite side!"
"This defense... ugh!"
Shen Lin, who had learned a bit about the history of this dynasty during this period, sighed.
Liu Chuer raised her head and asked, "Ms. sir, are you worried that the Liao people will come over?"
Shen Lin smiled bitterly and said: "You have also seen that those soldiers at the city gate can fight?"
"If the Liao cavalry charges, I'm afraid these guys will scatter like birds and beasts."
Liu Chuer smiled and squeezed the back of Shen Lin's hand with her little hand to show comfort.
"Ms. sir, you are too worried, aren't you?"
"I heard that the Liao people are not good at water warfare, but we have our navy in Huanglongjiang River!"
"How did they come here? Did they fly here?"
I’m afraid everyone thinks so, right?
It is said that the navy stationed on the Huanglong River by the Great Zhou Dynasty exceeded 30,000 people and had hundreds of warships.
You can protect yourself day and night, but there are always things you miss.
The Huanglong River river defense is thousands of miles long, and the narrowest point is only three miles.
Small sampans and kayaks can be used to smuggle across the country.
If one ship doesn't work, what about ten ships or a hundred ships?
Not too many people, as long as five hundred warriors and cavalry come over, the peace will be broken!
It seems that Ansheng's life may not last long.
You must seize the time to make money.
With money, you can raise a team to protect your family.
In this era, if you raise some private soldiers and do not exceed a certain scale, they will not be held accountable by the government.
Thinking a little too far.
Shen Lin secretly laughed. It was such a hard work to worry about. It was the first time for both of them to enter such a prosperous city.
Shen Lin was better, but he was more curious than surprised.
Liu Chu'er was different, she could hardly turn her eyes around.
"Ah, sir, there are so many shops and vendors. There are so many goods, much bigger than those at Shenjiaji!"
"It's not good to ride a horse, let's dismount and walk!"
Shen Lin took care of himself and got off the horse with her in his arms.
The little girl Xiafei has a pretty face and is quite embarrassed.
"Chu'er, your husband-in-law is rich now. Whatever you want to buy, just open up your spending!"
Liu Chuer was moved and spat out her sweet tongue.
"Ms. sir, it's not easy for us to make some money!"
"Don't spend it indiscriminately!"
Shen Lin waved his hand nonchalantly: "Don't mention it, your husband-in-law is very capable of making money! My own women just have to be pampered!"
"Scoff?" A young fat man next to him said contemptuously while waving his folding fan.
"Where did this country barbarian come from? What nonsense are you bragging about?"
Shen Lin was not angry, but turned around and smiled.
"Brother, looking at your size, you are very experienced!"
The fat man was confused for a moment: "What do you mean?"
Shen Lin also said with disdain: "It's not interesting. Mr. Shen saw such a big toad!"
"Chu'er, let's go quickly to avoid being suffocated by the toad's bad breath!"
"Grrrr!"
Liu Chuer happily followed Shen Lin and ran away.
Two people and one horse made two or three turns before disappearing into the sea of people.
The fat man smacked his lips and then understood.
I was scolded!
"Hey, hey, don't run away. If you have the nerve to challenge Mr. Wu Qi in a duel!"
"You are the toad, and your whole family is a toad!"
Pedestrians on the street were all pointing and laughing.
You stand out like this with your big belly, holding up your belt, jumping around and yelling curses.
Is it any different from a toad that lives every day?
Of course Shen Lin couldn't watch it.
He was persuading Liu Chuer enthusiastically.
"Girl, these candied haws are so good, how many can you get?"
"No, it's too sour!"
"Girl, there's a queue at that pastry shop, the aroma is filling the air, we have to buy some back!"
"Mr., don't want it, okay? It's too sweet!"
"Hey, girl, I'm hungry, sir. That restaurant is nice!"
"Ms. sir, the archway is so high! Let's go home in a while and make spicy noodles for you!"
…
Along the way, the little girl looked at everything strangely, but she endured it.
Don’t want to buy anything!
In fact, Shen Lin was so moved that his daughter-in-law, at such a young age, knew how to be diligent and frugal in running the house and would never spend a penny randomly. Thinking about her ex-girlfriend in another world, she was clamoring to buy, buy, buy all day long.
Cosmetics, bags, food and drink...
As a senior technician, that girl wasted all my money worth over 10,000 yuan a month.
People also disliked Shen Lin for being hopeless and spending all day working with screwdrivers and machinery.
No money, no fun!
Look at Liu Chuer now, after more than a month of supplementation.
The whole person is radiant and beautiful.
My girlfriend in my previous life was not even qualified to carry Liu Chuer’s shoes!
With a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for?
"This is a must-buy! How can our Chu'er miss out on Mingyue Zhai's rouge and gouache?"
Liu Chuer couldn't resist, and felt heartbroken for a long time.
"Ms. sir, you...you are so wasteful!"
"One box is enough, right? You actually bought four boxes of the complete set?"
"It's two taels of silver, enough for us to eat plain noodles for a long time!"
Shen Lin chuckled and said: "Rose, osmanthus, orchid, and cardamom. There are four types of fragrances. My husband, I like to smell them!"
"Don't you think, as a wife, you would like to be tolerated by those who please you?"
Liu Chuer lowered her head and held the gouache box tightly!
She whispered shyly.
"Chu'er...Chu'er is naturally willing!"
The two of them had a bowl of southern rice noodles on the street, which tasted very authentic.
Liu Chuer pointed to the shop across the street and suggested, "Mr., the one selling looms!"
"I...I want to buy one. I heard that weaving at home can also make money to support the family!"
Shen Lin's heart skipped a beat, and many thoughts went through his mind instantly.
The land south of the Yangtze River during the Zhou Dynasty was the source of spinning and weaving.
There are many cotton farmers in the north, but they have become a source of raw materials.
