When Yi Feng woke up, he found that his arms were a little numb. Xiao Sumei curled up in front of his chest like a kitten. Her black hair spread out and covered most of her fair and delicate face. Her head was resting on her arm, but her jade hands were tightly hugging her and refused to let go... A smooth and slender legs were placed on her waist, but she was not honestly placed on her waist. Her breasts, which were only covered by her small clothes, were slowly undulating, and a kitten whirring sound was made between her mouth and nose. After shook her head, Yi Feng's mind woke up, remembering that this was Guixiangyuan, and the woman in her arms was her six-room concubine. Last night, he first entered this beautiful girl Xiao Meiniang arranged it to him.

Before last night, Yi Feng and Xiao Sumei met for a few short times, and they didn't even say anything. In my impression, he was a dignified and beautiful woman, with a sense of being a lady of a family, but less of the arrogance of a daughter of everyone, more gentle temperament, a little quiet, reserved, and even a sense of dullness with the world. It was hard to believe that this was the temperament exuded by a girl. But after staying last night, Yi Feng had a deeper understanding of her. Last night was the first time for the two, and it was obviously the first time she was. But what was surprising was that she was

But he was very proactive on the bed, even a little unrestrained and enthusiastic. The rare initiative, familiarity with various postures, and tacit cooperation with Yi Feng even made Yi Feng a little dazed. If he had not obtained detailed information about Xiao Sumei from the Statistics Bureau, he would have thought that this woman was a romantic woman found by Concubine Xiao Li Dai Taozun. But what he knew was that before this year, Xiao Sumei was just an ordinary woman, once a princess, but later became an ordinary woman. She did not leave her home every day, and weaved cloth embroidery at home to subsidize her family income and took care of her grandmother and younger brother.

This is an amazing woman, half of the sea and half of the flames. During the day, she is gentle and quiet. But at night, she is as enthusiastic as a ball of fire, which can melt people away. The dark side of the night fades away. At night, the female leopard became a little wild cat nestled in his arms. At this time, Xiao Sumei in her arms looked so cute that she was extremely loving. Yi Feng suddenly fell in love with this woman. Before coming here last night, he just came with the idea of ​​completing the task and rudely slandering him, but now, he has to admit that this Jiangnan woman really touched him and attracted him.

The morning drum on the Huaihuang Bell and Drum Tower is still beating. However, in Huaihuang, the drum of the time in the city has become more of a sign.

In the streets and streets, the drum sounds until the four drums are quiet. During the five drums, there are those who open as soon as possible and go public again.

The daily drums sound like the capital, the doors are closed, and the curfews are closed at night. The strict restrictions on the Huaihuang outside the border are different. The Huaihuang outside is already filled with commercial activities. There are no Lifangs surrounded by high walls. The walls facing the streets have been replaced by shops covered with signs in Huaihuang. Shops of all sizes are also divided into various markets according to different categories, concentrated in areas according to categories, and some special large markets, as well as some high-end commercial pedestrian streets. In addition to the inner city of Huaihuang, the outer city of Huaihuang and several other large markets have no business hours. They open until the third or even the fourth update every night, while some morning markets start at the fourth update and the fifth update is already open.

In recent days, the Wuzhou army has been triumphant, Yi Shuai has a son, and Huaihuang has become even more lively. As the New Year approaches, many businesses have begun to strengthen publicity and increase business hours in advance. Especially, the army that has just passed by has made a fortune recently, so they are even more enthusiastic, and many shops are open all night. Even on the two main roads of the most prosperous Cross Street, a large night market has been temporarily set up and many stalls have been opened. The merchants who obtained stalls have begun to bring their own products to exhibition, and at the same time, they have begun to invite craftsmen who set lanterns to start building colorful lanterns, preparing for the most lively lantern market after the New Year.

The night of hustle and bustle had just disappeared, and the noise of morning waking began again.

When Yi Feng was still stroking the smooth jade back of the beauty in his arms at the head of the bed, the morning light was just beginning to flash on the city's face, and the sound of iron signs knocking came from the streets and alleys.

The monks from the temple held an iron sign in one hand and knocked with utensils with the other hand, shouting Buddhist terms such as "Saving all living beings to save suffering and all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas" along the street. At the same time, with their usual voices of chanting Buddha's name, they reported the time loudly and accurately to the courtyards of the alleys. At first, Huaihuang's amazement was entirely based on the big drums and bells on the drum tower in the city. Later, the masters of Mount Wutai came with the monks. These monks soon found a way to intervene in Huaihuang. At the beginning, the monks got up early to chant Buddha's name, and the original intention was to teach people to avoid sleep and not miss the opportunity to chant Buddha's name, and at the same time preached. But gradually, when the monks walked on the street to chant scriptures, they began to report the time. Because many people believed that the monks had the true nature of awakening obsession, and these monks abide by it every day.

Time is accurate. Gradually, the monks did not remember the original intention of the monks. Instead, their function of reporting dawn was accepted and remembered by everyone. Even now, when Huaihuang wakes up every morning, the travelers of the Toutu have become specialists for reporting dawn. The labor of these Toututus is not without reward. Every day, during the day or month, and during the New Year, the people will give them vegetarian meals and vegetarian money. In this way, the Toutus of the Toutu has become a common job. They even spread from Huaihuang City to surrounding towns and forts and villages. The Toutus of the Toutu in Huaihuang City even began to provide diversified services. While they report dawn, they will also report the weather forecast of the day to the soldiers, civilians and merchants in the city. The sunny sky will be clear, and the cloudy sky will be cloudy, and even predict rain, snow, mist, frost, etc.

The monks in Mount Wutai have been quickly infected by the commercial atmosphere here and quickly integrated into it.

Since Yi Feng took control of Huaihuang, this Liancheng outside the Great Wall has also undergone rapid transformation. It quickly changed from the original nest of a large northern green forest force to a military and commercial center on the border outside the Great Wall. Huaihuang Liancheng, dozens of surrounding towns and forts, and Daning, Erlong, Huai'an and other towns in the Great Wall have built the largest commercial trading market on the northern border. Huaihuang City is even dominated by its central position in this circle. It has become the most prosperous city and market outside the Great Wall.

Every morning, it was only 4 o'clock in the morning, outside the west gate of Huaihuang City, there were countless caravans, leading cattle, horses, camels, and queuing up to wait for the salt warehouse to open under the city gate. These salt vendors were just the individual tourists in the prosperous salt industry in Huaihuang. The real big salt merchants took the grain directly to the designated town fort in Huaihuang to deliver the grain, and then took the receipt to Huaihuang to open the salt and then led the salt back to Yancheng to transport the salt south. The big salt merchants transported at least 1,000 stones of dam salt at one time, and even organized the transportation of more than 10,000 stones of salt at a time. Those who came to Huaihuang City salt warehouse to get salt were almost all scattered wholesale, ranging from a dozen or twenty stones to a few hundred stones. They did not use grain to exchange salt, but the price of salt was much more expensive than using grain to exchange salt.

The salt vendors were waiting outside the city for the salt warehouse to open the warehouse to sell salt. Every morning, many convoys rushed from outside the city, carrying trucks of cargo and transporting them into the increasingly prosperous city outside the border.

Huaihuang City and its surrounding areas have a large number of garrisons and military families. There are also many workshops, warehouses and shops, and there are more migrant workers. This is a city with a population of more than 300,000, and even if it is located in the Central Plains, it is quite amazing. In this city with a huge population, they need to consume a large amount of various materials every day. In addition to grain and cloth, Huaihuang also consumes a lot of coal every day. Huaihuang is outside the frontier and lacks wood and charcoal, especially in winter. Heating and cooking and the fuel needed by various workshops in the city all have to rely on charcoal. Every morning, the earliest ones to enter the city were the charcoal yards outside the city.

The carriages transporting coal into the city in the warehouse. These carriages transporting coal into the city are all transported by four-wheeled carriages, and they are specially laid from the chariot yard to the carriage tracks in the city. Through these tracks, four horses can pull six four-wheeled carriages. The four-wheeled carriages manufactured by Huaihuang have improved the wooden and iron sliding bearings of the axles of the traditional two-wheeled carriages to ball rolling steel bearings. The steel on the wheels and shock absorbers and carriage tracks are installed, so that each four-wheeled carriage carriage carrying coal can load a weight of two tons, which is about twenty-four stones at this time. Four horses pull six cars at a time, and one trip is nearly one hundred and fifty stones.

Nowadays, bulk materials such as grain, coal, etc. that are transported to Huaihuang City are basically first placed in the warehouse city outside the city, and then transported through two commuter tracks outside the city. Every morning, carriages carry various goods to the city, unload the goods and then return through another out-of-city track, and every day they are busy from early morning to midday.

Just like blood transfusion, the grain, cloth, coal, cattle and sheep from the border were imported into Huaihuang one by one.

Xiao Sumei's long eyelashes trembled a few times, her big eyes opened, just in time to meet Yi Feng's smile looking at her.

"You're awake."

A hint of panic flashed across her eyes, and even a blush appeared on her face, but she just nodded and let go of her hand.

"If you like it, you can sleep for a while. You are very fragrant and soft, and it feels so comfortable to hug you." Yi Feng said with a smile.

"Yeah." After hearing Yi Feng's words, she actually hugged Yi Feng again, and then squeezed her into his chest, clumping her tighter and wrapped her even harder. After a while, the slight sound of the kitten snoring came from. Yi Feng couldn't help but smile, unexpectedly. After a while, seeing that she was sleeping peacefully, Yi Feng slowly pulled out his hand, got up, and covered her with a blanket. He did not ask the maid outside to put on his clothes, comb his hair, and put on his crown, and turned his head out of the room.

"Sumei is still sleeping. Don't disturb her first, wait for her to wake up by herself." Yi Feng shouted to several maids who came up, "Tell her later that I have left in advance and see her if I have time."

When we arrived at the yard outside, the tall osmanthus tree actually bloomed a little yellow flowers, emitting a charming osmanthus fragrance. A young man was sitting under the tree holding a book to read. He quickly turned around when he heard the footsteps and saw Yi Feng coming out, with a complicated look on his face.

Yi Feng looked at the boy a few times. He was tall and even a little literary. His face was a little pale, which was somewhat similar to Xiao Sumei. He knew that this should be Xiao Xun, the younger brother Xiao Xun whom Xiao Sumei was brought with him. He was not unfamiliar with the name Xiao Xun. When the Statistics Bureau investigated Xiao Sumei's information, he also sent Xiao Xun's information together. When he first saw this name, Yi Feng was a little surprised. After all, Xiao Xun was a tyrant in the late Sui Dynasty and early Tang Dynasty, and once occupied Jianghan.

The old land of Houliang had an army of 400,000 to 500,000. However, such a person was not very famous in the history of the late Sui Dynasty and early Tang Dynasty. Because he rose up very quickly, but was destroyed very quickly. Hundreds of thousands of troops were finally destroyed by Li Jing in a battle and finally beheaded Chang'an. It only made Li Jing famous, and he was just a supporting role. If it were a few months earlier, Yi Feng would definitely be surprised or even excited to see him, but Yi Feng is no longer so excited about these historical figures now.

At this time, Xiao Xian was three years younger than him and was just a young man with a twentieth crown. He even looked at him with a look of fear.

"You are Sumei's younger brother Xiao Xian, right? I am Yi Feng, you can also call me brother-in-law."

The boy hesitated for a while, but finally didn't say anything, neither calling Yi Feng nor brother-in-law.

"Is it a habit of living in Huaihuang? Do you have any ideas and plans for yourself in the future?" Yi Feng asked.

Xiao Xian used to sell books and read a lot of books, but when he talked about his future plans, he was very confused. Yi Feng saw him like this and smiled, "I think you like reading books very much. You have sold books before, so why not do this. You go to the printing shop for internship for half a year, take a look everywhere, and when you get familiar with it, I will transfer you to the business newspaper and newspaper. Maybe you can be a reporter or even an editor." Yi Feng did not arrange a manager or official position for him just because he had just become his brother-in-law.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Xian was very happy when he heard this arrangement and nodded excitedly, "Thank you brother-in-law."

"Okay, I'll have to meet a few more guests later. If you want something in the future, you can ask your sister to tell me, or you can come to Baihutai to find me directly." After that, Yi Feng left Xiao Xian with his own business card and left. He did have several guests to meet today, including two of them, one general and one general who is no less famous in history than Xiao Xian, a hero in troubled times.
