Chapter 639 The Daily Life of King Gao
The city of Xi'an became lively because of the establishment of the capital of the Western Wei Dynasty.

However, the sudden influx of such a large population into a city has driven the economy, and at the same time, various problems have arisen, resulting in skyrocketing prices and tight resources in Xi'an. Fortunately, the administrative efficiency of the Western Wei Kingdom is still efficient and clean. Empty unoccupied houses were taken out to house officials and officials, and at the same time, wealthy households were called together to encourage them to open inns, restaurants, teahouses, and shops, and to use the power of the people to transport materials into Guanzhong.

At the same time, tens of thousands of mu of land was set aside outside the city, promising tax exemption for one year, and encouraging the common people to grow vegetables and raise livestock to maintain the consumption and operation of the capital.

In the past two months, with the implementation of many policies of the Western Wei Dynasty, the soaring prices in Xi'an have gradually come down, and the supplies in the city have become abundant.

Although the problem has not been resolved immediately, the Western Wei regime's response speed, execution ability and control have been praised by the people.

The sudden influx of such a large population and good management is an opportunity for Xi'an, but if it is not managed well, it will inevitably become a disaster.

Now in the city of Xi'an, there are nearly 20 soldiers, officials, and common people. Among them, the army and officials are all people who have military pay and salary. Without consumption, no one is hired to work, and the people at the bottom of the city have no livelihood, but now they have found work again, and the city has become full of vitality again.

At this time, because the palace of the Western Wei Dynasty was still being repaired, Gao Yihuan's marriage still could not be consummated.

Marrying a princess is a big event, so you can't marry her and let the princess live in a shack, so you have to wait for the Ministry of Industry to complete the renovation of the palace, at least to build a few buildings for the princess.

After Gao Yihuan inquired about the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry, he learned that the wedding date was set for July, which was three months away, so he devoted his mind to the imperial examination and the construction of the capital.

At noon that day, Gao Yihuan dressed up a bit, put on a gray Taoist robe, a square scarf on his head, a leather belt around his waist, and cloud shoes on his feet, dressed as a scholar, and walked out of the mansion.

Outside, Li Yan, Chen Mingxia, Lu Yifang, and Liang Yizhang were already standing outside, all dressed as scholars.

These four people are either Juren, or Jinshi, serious scholars, and when they wear square scarves and Taoist uniforms, their motherly elegance is almost overflowing.

They are not very old, they are in their 30s, which is really suave.

Gao Yihuan came out, squinting his eyes, Chen Mingxia coquettishly closed the folding fan, patted the fan on his hand, and greeted him with a smile, "Your Majesty is wearing clothes, I really don't dare to recognize him, I don't think he is from My good son!"

Gao Yihuan had a smile on his face, but stared at the folding fan in his hand and said: "Well, sir, this fan is not bad!"

The fan that Chen Mingxia was slapping in his hand froze. This fan was imported from the Japanese country, and it was a flagship product of the Japanese people's export earnings. He only had one, and he loved it very much.

"If the king likes it, I will offer it to the king!" Chen Mingxia was a little confused, but he still offered the folding fan with an apologetic smile.

"Haha~" Gao Yihuan laughed, "Then I'll just play for two days, and then return it to my husband."

After finishing speaking, he took the folding fan with one hand, swiped it open with one hand, and fanned coquettishly in front of his chest.

"Let's go!" Gao Yihuan waved his fan and greeted him. He immediately felt as if he had drunk two bowls of ink and became a literati.

Li Yan and Liang Yizhang behind could not help shaking their heads slightly, no matter how they looked at them, they looked like ignorant dudes.

A few people were ashamed to be with him, but they had no choice, Gao Yihuan was the king, they could only follow behind, Li Laiheng and more than a dozen guards also followed, looking around nervously, for fear of any accidents.

A group of people left the area where the government offices gathered, and came to Dongshi. The streets were bustling with people.

A large number of new people have flooded into Xi'an City. They are all from the agricultural production class. They have to obtain food, clothing, housing and transportation from the market, which has greatly promoted the economic development of Xi'an City.

Their appearance has caused prices to rise, which has stimulated the people outside the city. The people used to grow and order vegetables to eat by themselves. Now that the vegetables can be sold, they will grow more vegetables and weave more cloth. Productivity and output of goods.

This principle is like releasing money and increasing liquidity. When appropriate, it can stimulate the economy, but if there is too much money, it will cause inflation.

At this time, a group of people were walking on the street. Li Yan saw a teahouse appearing in all directions, and it was very lively inside, so he said to Gao Yihuan: "My lord, there are mixed people in the teahouse and wine shop, but there are the most news, and you can understand the various ways of the people. How about Come in and sit down."

Gao Yihuan saw that there were people coming and going in the wine shop, and there were quite a few people coming in and out in groups, so he said with a smile: "Then go and have a seat!"

At noon, the taverns and teahouses in the city of Xi'an were extremely lively, because the Western Wei Dynasty was a new regime, and the original social structure was basically destroyed. After the wealth was redistributed, there were not many dignitaries and rich people in the entire vassal state, so the restaurants The teahouses generally take the middle and low-end route, usually two floors, the interior layout is simple, and the dishes are high-quality and cheap.

Gao Yihuan and his party walked into the restaurant, which was full of people, and it was very lively. The bartenders were sweating profusely, carrying plates around to serve food, and their voices were hoarse.

This restaurant has only two floors, the middle is empty, and there is a table for people to tell stories and sing songs. The whole structure is in the shape of the word "Hui".

Now the customers of the restaurant are mainly scholars who come to the imperial examination. The city people have not recovered from the years of war and have no money, so they basically start their own cooking.

Gao Yihuan entered the restaurant and saw that the first floor was full of people, so he walked to the second floor. Just as he walked up the stairs, he saw a candidate standing up from a table upstairs, and shouted in surprise: "Dingsheng Brother?"

Gao Yihuan and his party suddenly froze in their footsteps, and the fans in their hands stopped shaking. Li Laiheng immediately raised his vigilance, but the caller was not them, but a scholar who had just come upstairs.

The fan in Gao Yihuan's hand started to shake again, he didn't know why, anyway, he had the fan in his hand, and he unconsciously wanted to fan it, as if he had an addiction.

At this time, as the fan blew, the group continued to move forward, passing by the table just now, and sat down beside them.

"Brother Pijiang?" The scholar who was stopped turned his head, saw the scholar who called his name, immediately recognized him, and said in surprise, "Brother Pijiang is here too!"

Immediately, he walked over, and the person at the table immediately gave up a seat, and warmly invited him to sit down and drink together.

At this time, not far from them, several people on the other table put down their wine glasses together, and snorted coldly with a bit of hostility and contempt, "Hmph, people from the Fushe actually dare to come to our Western Wei Dynasty!"

As soon as Gao Yihuan sat down, he heard voices from both sides entering his ears. He thought, "It's really interesting between literati. This wine shop can hear many things that you can't usually hear.

"Xiao Er, let me have a plate of melon seeds first, and then I will serve all the hard vegetables in your shop."
