The arrival of a large number of high-quality immigrants surprised Li Jia.

The supply of houses in Panyu City instantly exceeded the demand, especially those wealthy people who were planning to settle down in Lingnan for the time being. They bought land around Panyu on a large scale, raising the land price by 50%, and the people said they couldn't afford it!

Not only the price of land, but also a series of things such as food, slaves, furniture, etc. are all rising in price, and expenses have increased. The people are miserable and helpless. The Xingwang Palace can only hold down the price with tens of thousands of dan of grain.

In addition, Li Jia is happy to see the results. These are just labor pains and will pass in a while.

The most direct benefit is immediately apparent. The number of people who signed up for the Enke exam exceeded any previous session, and the number reached more than 5,000, which was more than ten times the number of the most recent session.

The increase in these consumer groups caused the market's transaction volume to rise sharply. Most merchants made a lot of money, and the court's tax revenue also increased a lot.

"Brother, Lingnan is not as deserted as imagined!"

After a day's work, Xiao Shanwen and his party arrived at Panyu City. A dozen servants carried things unloaded from the ship on their shoulders and piled them up into a hill at the port. This scene has become commonplace in Panyu City these days.

, passers-by can only sigh at the wealth of the family.

Simply at the port, good people had been sent to hire two carriages to take the women's family members, and ten donkey carts were hired to transport the family's property. Then they breathed a sigh of relief.

The spacious streets became a little crowded due to the increase in pedestrians. The cries of vendors, the laughter of children, and the braying of livestock became the symphony of the entire city, and this often represents prosperity.

"Xingwang Mansion is the most important place in Lingnan. It is naturally no less than Yangzhou, and even more prosperous!" Xiao Shanwen added after watching a few big cannibals bargaining in Chinese.

"Oh! This is really great!" Xiao Congwen said happily. "Come on, I have already sent someone to buy the yard!" Looking at the envious eyes of passers-by, Xiao Shanwen hurriedly urged.

The family had settled in, and it was late at night. Xiao Shanwen finally took a breath, looked at his tired brother, and said with a smile: "Go and have a rest! We have to visit someone tomorrow!"

Xiao Congwen burst into mourning instantly.

Sanyuan Palace was built at the southern foot of Yuexiu Mountain, with hills to the west and flat plains to the east. The heights are very clear, and it is only a few miles away from Panyu, so it has always been very popular, especially when the new emperor ascended the throne and restored the Tang Dynasty.

Taoism became even more prosperous.

After all, the great sage ancestor of the Li Tang royal family is Laozi Li Er...

Sanyuan Palace is a famous Taoist temple. It was built in the second year of Daxing reign of Emperor Yuan of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (319). It was originally named Yuegang Palace. It was the place where Bao Gu, the daughter of Nanhai Prefect Bao Liang, practiced Taoism and medicine. Because it is located in the north of the city, later generations also called it Yue Gang Yuan.

"North Temple" is the oldest and largest existing Taoist building in Lingnan.

It was a rare time for Li Jia to leave the palace, so he felt refreshed. Together with dozens of guards, he rode away to the Sanyuan Palace. He saw that the trees on the roadside were already blooming everywhere, red and purple.

The white ones and patches of green are inlaid together, so colorful that Li Jia's mood instantly became better.

A well-maintained dirt road is compacted, and the horses are running smoothly. On both sides of the road, there are villages and fields. Between the crop fields, the smoke is lingering, chickens and dogs can hear each other, and the human fireworks make the landscape more friendly.

, making people feel relaxed and safe.

"Remember, call me Li Langjun while you are away. I am the candidate who is here to take the exam!"

Li Jia pretended to open a paper fan and fanned it. With his white and tender skin, lively eyes, and dozens of horse guards, he looked like a noble prince traveling.

"Nuo——" Tian Zhong and Wu Qing, who were accompanying him, lowered their heads and agreed.

"Is everyone here?" Tian Zhong asked softly, looking at the emperor who was leading the way.

"Our Archery Department has already sent more than a hundred elites to infiltrate among the people!" Wu Qing said in a low voice.

"That's good. The Imperial City Department has also sent people. There are a thousand cavalry stationed a few miles away. They will be there in a moment. This time there will definitely be nothing wrong!"

Having said this, Tian Zhong still felt frightened. If something went wrong, he would have to risk his life.

The group of people tied their horses in a wooden shed at the foot of the mountain, and there was a tea stall next to it.

Li Jia then ordered a few people to watch the horses here, and he and the rest went up the mountain road to worship the gods.

The road is very lively, and there are many people praying to God today. In Taoist temples, people are making money every day. People are in high spirits, admiring the flowers and trees on the roadside, the fields behind them, and climbing mountains. People worshiping God in this spring,

Rather than praying to God, it is better to play.

Li Jia was also in high spirits. He was originally here to have fun. In front of the audience, he saw so many people, all kinds of food stalls and shouting. The Taoist priests didn't care. There were even jugglers and fortune tellers.

Full of market atmosphere.

On the side, there was even a scholar who was setting up a frame under a tree and painting. Obviously, even though he didn't have a camera at this time, he still had a way to capture the beautiful scenery.

The hall was filled with smoke, incense ashes and smoke filled the air, making it very uncomfortable to breathe. Li Jia took one look at the Sanqing Taoist and chose to leave.

"This is boring!" After walking around for a long time, Li Jia got tired and was about to go back. Unexpectedly, there was a lot of excitement at this moment. Li Jia suddenly became interested and walked away in two steps.

"This is a treasure passed down from my family. You have to pay me five hundred dollars!"

"This is because you bumped into me and the jade shattered to the ground. Although you are not exempt from compensation, five hundred guan is too much. This is an ordinary jade, and the maximum is two guan..."

Li Jia squeezed in and realized that it was a game of porcelain, and a dispute broke out between the scholar and the leper.

"Five hundred guan is not less than a penny, or you can meet me as an official..." the leper stretched his neck and said.

"See the official when you see him!" On the side, another young scholar shouted loudly, and Li Jia saw that the leper's eyes were shining with joy, and the situation was not good.

"Erlang!" Xiao Shanwen glared at his younger brother and continued: "Two dollars at most. Although Xiao is a scholar, he will not let you, a leprosy, run amok!"

"Hmph, come with me to see the official. You will know when the time comes!" The leper held on to the scholar and dragged him out.

Xiao Shanwen immediately felt that something was not right. If he went to the government office, he would have to lose 90% of his family property, and he might not be spared! He was unfamiliar with the place, and he had two words for official.

Just as he was about to struggle, several green-skinned men suddenly appeared at the end of the period, with smiles on their lips, and the threat was obvious.

Seeing this, Li Jia was unhappy and signaled Wu Qing to go and help.

"Bah, why is Aye's jade pendant in your hand?" Wu Qing walked in with a few tall guards and slapped the rogue's face a few times, making his cheeks turn red.
