Chapter 819
White funeral drape can be seen everywhere in Fengri City. Some families even lit joss sticks for the emperor who just passed away, and put them at their door. However, there is no tablet. The royal rules are very strict, and ordinary people cannot privately worship the royal family tablet. Just burn some joss sticks and talk about your feelings.
The military situation in the south is gradually cooling down. The two battles between Baitouxia and Sangbiqiu really broke the backbone of the barbarians. The remaining Huzhuyuan had no possibility of setting up a royal court anymore, and it was even impossible for them to defend Huzhuyuan. If they didn't run faster and wait for Zuo Yuliang to continue to march south, they would be hard to escape.
Therefore, the only remaining main force of the barbarians needs to be broken up into pieces, returning to the form of scattered tribes, drilling into the mountains or wandering in the plains, anyway, they cannot be fixed in one place, otherwise they will die if they are mopped up by the army.
Of course, the reaction of the barbarians had long been guessed by the Jing army. Whether it was Zuo Yuliang or Wen Ming, even Shen Hao, who was half-filled with water, knew that the big battle in the south was over, and all that was left was to clean up the battle. It counts as much as it can be wiped out, and it will not continue to consume with the barbarians. At most, the troops should be completely withdrawn by March next year, and the deployment of the normal garrison will be completed.
In this situation, the most direct feeling in Jingjiu Dynasty is that the closed shops on the street are gradually reopening. Some of them are still the same shops and people from the past, but some of them failed to survive the "winter" and were forced to resell the shops and replace them with other businesses.
With more shops, there will be more people on the street. Whether it's shopping or selling things, the crowds are brought by the shops in this way.
The shops reopened, those who sell goods, those who sell goods, those who run sports cars, and those who run inns. The chain-like reactions directly brought the cities to life.
The strategy of tightening money and food is still there, but it has been reduced to the lowest level. It has not been cancelled, because Zuo Yuliang is still sweeping towards Huzhuyuan, and the main forces of the four major front armies are still withdrawing to Wuhu in batches, and have not returned. After arriving in the pass, the daily demand for luggage is still very large, so I dare not relax.
But as far as the current battle situation is concerned, the reserves in the official warehouse should be able to handle it. So street vendors can set up stalls, restaurants are allowed to open, and even wine can be sold. However, if you want to open up and drink, you still can't. Although you can buy alcohol, they are limited. How many catties of wine a shop can sell every day is approved by the local government. If you dare to sell more, you will be sent to prison. The same goes for buyers.
So there is an additional job in the market to help people sell wine, that is, wait at the door of the wine shop early in the morning, buy your own share, but wait by the side of the wine shop if you don’t want to drink it, and wait for it. Someone asks to sell it to others at a high price. This kind of private transaction office turned a blind eye to it, and couldn't manage it.
It should be said that restaurants and inns are open, but Hualou is not among them. On the one hand, the flower building involves the nature of restaurants and inns at the same time, and at the same time, it is laughable that selling dances belongs to the entertainment field. Now that the funeral of the former emperor is still there, and it coincides with the shortage of money and food, they simply put the flower building in place and still do not let it go. move.
I don't know how many merchants involved in the flower building business have lost their hair, but there is nothing they can do.
If the flower building is not in operation, the sisters in it can only live on a meager amount of money. It's not a big deal for those top cards or popular singers, after all, I have saved a lot, and it's not a big problem if I don't open for a year or two. But those singers in the middle and lower reaches are in a hurry. They don't have much money, and their expenses are not small. If they don't take advantage of the time to earn as much as possible, what will they do in the future?
Of course, Hualou is still far away from ordinary people, especially those high-end Hualou, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are selling gold. How can ordinary people have the money to go to such occasions? Even if you want to play with women, it's not bad to visit the most common earthen kiln.
So people don't care about the misery in Hualou.
Outside a vacant house in the west part of Fengri City, every few days, a man dressed in smart clothes would pass by, and would sit down and rest on the stone steps at the door. There are too many people like this in the West City, and no one will pay attention. Every time, only a few beggars who squatted on the street corner all the year round would look at this side intentionally or unintentionally.
People are like this, they always like to take the people and things that appear in daily life as usual without thinking about them, and they always feel that the abruptness is the thing worth noting, ignoring the mystery hidden under the "ordinary" appearance.
A piece of information about this vacant house and the news about the strangers who appeared near this house were quickly reported through a hidden channel, and then they would be sorted and screened centrally and then sent to some people who were responsible for probing and tracking. for further confirmation.
In the end, the systematic intelligence context was collected into the same dossier.
And the name of this dossier is "Follow-up on the Follow-up of Moon Shadow Building".
"So Zhang Yinxiong has completely put down his guard?" Shen Hao put down the follow-up dossier and handed it back to Wang Jian, and took a sip of the tea on the table while smiling. The tea was a little hot. He drank it. Blow it before.
It's almost December, and the temperature in Fengri City is already a bit freezing, but because of the air conditioner this year, not only Shen Hao in the office will not feel cold, but many people who have air conditioners will also live a peaceful life. I felt a very different winter in the past.
At least with the air conditioner in the room, there is no need to burn a brazier, and it is much more comfortable to sit in the room without the smoke.
Wang Jian also had a cup of hot tea in his hand, and when Shen Hao asked him, he smiled and said, "Yes, my lord, Zhang Yinxiong was very cautious at the beginning, but he found that the magic circles he set up on the door and in the room had not responded, so he was relieved." Come. Later, I went to Miss Lianxiang's yard, and I was completely relieved.
On the 23rd day, he had an unusual contact with others for the first time after he came into our field of vision. It was just at the door of a tea house next to the teleportation circle. The time was very short, but our people still found it. Then as he followed, people spent time looking for Miss Lianxiang to identify him. As expected, Zhang Yinxiong began to get in touch with the rest of the senior management of Yueying Building.
But he lost it when he followed him to Xinliang City, and in the end he only knew that the man had gone east by boat. According to the fourth part's analysis, that person may have gone to the east in the direction of Ruoshui. "
"Weak water? You mean that person went towards the city of death?" Shen Hao did not see the final analysis of the fourth part on the dossier. It should be that there is no empirical evidence so it was not included in the dossier.
"Yes."
"But now the eastern waterway border is strictly controlled, can he go back?"
Wang Jian said with a chuckle: "My lord, you can go back. As long as you know the way, it's really easy to cross the yamen and the army to check. The most convenient way is to hide on the cargo ship of the Tianyi Chamber of Commerce, or create a false identity for yourself." , and then go ashore and follow the convoy as a cover into the city."
"Fleet? Hehe, isn't that a self-inflicted trap? Keep an eye on it, maybe this time we will be able to touch the roots of Yueying Building in Wushi City."
