Four hundred and fortieth chapters just around the corner

Gusu City is one of the most prosperous cities in Wuhou.

Because of its proximity to the Yangtze River, there were frequent exchanges between Gusu and the towns along the Yangtze River. In addition, Wu Hou governed the local land and encouraged industry and commerce. In just a few years, Gusu's economy developed rapidly. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and business and travel continued.

A prosperous scene.

The prosperity of cities and towns means huge benefits, and huge benefits will naturally attract the covetous attention of certain people and forces.

Recently, the number of people in the world of martial arts in Gusu City has suddenly increased.

Places such as wine shops and inns are full of high-rollers who drink wine from large bowls and eat large pieces of meat. They all speak loudly and loudly, making people know that they are not to be trifled with at first sight.

"Damn it, everything is good here in Gusu, and the food and supplies are no worse than those in Yangzhou!"

At a table in the corner of a tavern, several men from all walks of life gathered together to eat and drink. One of them picked up the golden and crispy fried meat on the plate, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it with a look of enjoyment, then picked up a wine glass and poured it into his mouth.

Drinking the rice wine that is a specialty here in Gusu, he sighed with satisfaction and said loudly: "But it's just as bad here!"

"What's wrong?"

The Jianghu man at the same table also ate slowly, his face was red and moist, and after a glass of sweet and delicious rice wine, he was as happy as a god.

"I think the life here in Gusu is so nurturing that I don't even want to leave!"

This statement was true, and it also attracted loud echoes from the tablemates and the men around him.

All industries in Gusu City are prosperous, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation are quite good. Compared with the Yangtze River, Yangzhou, where Jin Wang Yang Guang is the leader, is not bad at all, and is even a little more relaxed.

Jin Wang Yangguang is in charge of Yangzhou, so he must have a group of subordinates around him, as well as imperial guards from Guanzhong in the north. The power of Yangzhou City is in the hands of the northerners, which is not a good thing for local snakes. It will naturally have some influence on the atmosphere in the city.

Influence.

Gusu City does not have such a problem. As one of the prosperous cities under the leadership of Wu Hou, the products on the market are very rich, including local specialty silk and satin, and more specialties from the entire south, which can be seen here.

Fruits from Lingnan, as well as specialties from other parts of the south, can be found in the Suzhou market.

In addition, Wuhou Leihu paid great attention to people's livelihood. In addition to overhauling farmland water conservancy facilities to increase production, he also vigorously encouraged the private sector and the production and construction corps to engage in breeding and animal husbandry, and the results were quite good.

Lei Hu proposed a recyclable breeding method. Based on the natural cycle of heaven, which is modern scientific three-dimensional breeding, and according to the unique geographical environment and weather conditions of the territory, many ecological breeding farms were created, and the territory was easily solved.

Most people have meat-eating problems.

This is rare, not that people in this era cannot afford meat, but that there is not enough meat supply.

At this time, the north was the territory of the Turks, and the relationship between the Sui Dynasty and the Turks was not very good. The two powers were in opposition, and the number of cattle and sheep from the north was always restricted.

Although the Great Sui Dynasty has now entered a period of peaceful development, except for the Marquis of Wu, which has basically solved the problem of food and clothing, the people in other places are still struggling with food and clothing.

According to the resource utilization rate, cultivated land area, and total population of the Sui Dynasty, it is not a problem to provide food and clothing for all the people.

The area of ​​cultivated land and the degree of development of the territory in the Sui Dynasty were much greater than those in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, but the population was only about half of that in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. It was not that difficult to keep everyone fed.

Unfortunately, most of the resources in both the north and the south, such as fields, are owned by aristocratic families. The common people who make up the majority of the population do not have much land and can barely make a living.

It is said that Emperor Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty was really great, and the prosperity of the founding emperor was not just a boast. By the time he was established as the emperor, not only the national power was booming, but the living standards of the people were also greatly improved. This kind of ability is absolutely amazing.

But at the moment, the Jianghu men who are used to traveling all over the country have a very high opinion of Gusu City, because the final level of food and clothing is not far behind the prosperous big cities in the north.

Anyone who is not a fool knows that this situation is quite extraordinary.

Without further ado, let’s return to the chattering men in the tavern. The man who spoke first was dissatisfied: “The food and use here are very good, but there are no gambling houses and brothels. I have been suppressing it for many days and haven’t vented it properly.

Got it!"

Ha ha……

The tavern burst into laughter, but this man's words touched the hearts of many of the gangsters present.

Jianghu men travel around the world, willing to take risks not only to become famous and live a wealthy and prosperous life, but of course there is no need for wine and sex.

Gusu City is also strange. The food, clothing and accommodation are all very exquisite. As long as you have money, you can enjoy the best treatment.

It's a pity that there are no brothels or gambling houses here, which is quite a fly in the ointment.

You know, most of the gangsters like to gamble a little and have fun in the building to vent the excess energy in the body and heart.

Gusu City is also a rare prosperous and beautiful place in the south. It is really strange that it does not have these two kinds of people who can make money quickly.

Of course, there are people in the world who want to be the first to try something new.

The result was quite depressing, and they couldn't find a way out at all.

Who knows that if you want to make a fortune in a certain place, a man who is running around in the world will not be able to get around the local snakes. If you are not good at it, you may get killed.

Therefore, all experienced players in the martial arts industry will always pay respects to the port wherever they go. Whatever business they want to do, they must make it clear to the local snakes to avoid conflicts of interest in the future.

Gusu City is very different. There are no local gangs here, and the power of the city government is very limited. The real authority lies with the garrison and the Nalaoshizi Production and Construction Corps.

It is a bit reluctant for them to deal with the government, let alone the garrison and the Production and Construction Corps, which are powerful institutions.

Especially for the Nalaoshizi Production and Construction Corps, as long as they understand the rules under the rule of Wu Hou, they will know that if they want to do brothel and gambling business in Gusu, they can't do it without the approval of the local Production and Construction Corps chief, even if the garrison general agrees.

What outsiders can't understand is that the Nalaoshizi Production and Construction Corps' control over urban residents has reached an outrageous level.

The people in every block are led by the officers of the Production and Construction Corps and do endless tasks every day, which is incredible to outsiders.

The city is very prosperous. As long as you work hard, you can easily start a small business to support your family. If you are lucky, you can even become rich.

But every day, the people in the neighborhood had to complete the tasks and exercises prescribed by the Production and Construction Corps before they could have their own free time. It was a wonder that such strong restrictions did not cause a backlash.

How did they know that the order of production and life in Gusu collapsed during the war? If Lei Hu hadn't forcibly restrained it with the production and construction corps model, which quickly ended the chaotic situation, then the prosperous scene of Gusu City would be possible.

.

Based on previous experiences, although the lives of the people in the urban areas are getting better and better, none of them resent the constraints of the Production and Construction Corps. Who can say that this is not a kind of protection?

We work and exercise together every day. Not only do we have a harmonious relationship with our neighbors, but whenever something happens to our family, our neighbors will immediately come to our aid.

In this world where masters emerge in endlessly, this is obviously a special protection mode.

Unless you are a lone thief, if you want to do anything against the people in the city, you must carefully consider the consequences of being exposed.

These people from outside the world obviously don't understand these days.

Some forces who were quick-thinking and wanted to open brothels and gambling houses in Gusu City did not act rashly because they were confused and fearful.

Then there was a scene of a group of low-level gangsters in a tavern, drinking and complaining.

It was said that the atmosphere in the tavern was lively, and all the wealthy guests expressed their doubts. They had not long arrived in Gusu City, but many things here left them confused.

"It's really strange to say that the people in the city, no matter old or young, are all full of energy and blood, as if they have practiced external martial arts for many years!"

One of the drinkers said with a puzzled look on his face: "But when I look at them, there are no traces of martial arts training. It's really strange."

"Who says it isn't?"

Another drinker sighed with emotion: "With their physical condition, if they practice external skills, they will get twice the result with half the effort, and they will be able to achieve some success soon!"

"Yes, yes!"

The third drinker laughed and said: "If any master of external martial arts comes here to recruit the disciples, are they afraid that they will not prosper?"

As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy tavern suddenly fell silent.

These words spoke to the hearts of those present in the arena.

They worked tirelessly to come to Wuhou territory. Although they did not expect that the living environment here was quite good, they came here with ambitions in mind.

Not to mention starting a sect, at least opening a martial arts school is a good thing.

Suzhou is prosperous. Even if you can open a martial arts gym, you can live a very comfortable life.

As for those who are more ambitious and want to dominate a city or a place and monopolize the gray and black businesses in this area, they are also quite satisfied with the environment here in Gusu. The physical fitness of the people here is quite good. In the future, when the power develops,

It's okay to absorb some of it.

"Hey, have you noticed?"

At this time, someone suddenly spoke in the tavern, breaking the rare silence: "It's rare to see young people in Gusu City!"

These words reminded the heroes here again that the situation in Gusu City is very different from that in the North and other places in the South.

"Why do you care so much?"

But some drinkers said disapprovingly: "In three days, the Shuilong Gang will set up a flag in the city. Let's go over and watch the fun!"

"That's right. Anyway, there's someone higher up to take care of everything. Let's just go with the flow!"

"{..."
