Not long after, Zhang Chuntao and the others knew that if they wanted to rent a yard, they would have to be clean, the price was appropriate, and the life was convenient. The poplar alley not far away was a good choice.

Because He Yan was taking the exam, the waiter also provided several time-honored bookstores and shops selling pens, ink, paper and ink, all of which had good reputation and appropriate prices.

Yang Zongbao seemed curious and asked why there were so many small vendors in Qingzhou City. Can anyone set up a stall?

This aroused the waiter's interest. Because there were not many people having dinner in the inn in the morning and getting rewards, he simply sat down and said in detail.

There are various stalls everywhere in Qingzhou City, especially the food, which is even more abundant. Compared to Jingxian, it is probably more than ten times more lively.

What buns, steamed buns, soup wontons, and rolls, Jiamo, are all kinds of things, and are frugal.

The rich ones sit in the restaurant and order a pot of wine, two dishes, a bowl of noodles, and a morning wine until noon.

If you don’t have money, you can spend one or two big money, buy two steamed buns or a roll, and drink two bowls of water to make your stomach round.

Most ordinary families buy them home every now and then.

Qingzhou City is crowded with people, and there are many local tyrants, officials who have retired and returned home, wealthy businessmen, or relatives of nobles in the capital.

There are many officials in the capital, but the seventh and eighth ranks are not as good as dogs, and the fifth and sixth ranks are all over the ground.

In Qingzhou, we probably can't underestimate anyone. Maybe the inconspicuous old man on the roadside, or the aunt who can argue with street vendors for a long time for three or two dollars is a powerful relative or a servant in the family.

It is said that the young master of the former prefect's family has always ignored people by relying on his father's power.

In order to grab the snacks from a snack shop, an inconspicuous old man in line in front of him was pushed down. The old man got up to argue with the young master, but was interrupted by the young master's tyrant.

Someone said he had persuaded him a few words and said that the young master was too arrogant and wasn't he afraid of the elderly coming to cause trouble?

The young master spoke on the spot, saying that his father ranked first in Qingzhou City and he ranked second. Who did the old man blame himself for his lack of eyes? No matter how he whine, he would even beat the person who persuaded him.

Who dares to care about this? The old man was lying there in pain until his family found him and carried him back.

Not long after, the prefect was charged with corruption and abuse of power, and his family was also confiscated, and all the men and women in the family were taken back to the capital to await trial.

Later, news came out. It turned out that the old man who was broken by his leg that day was the father-in-law of a noble man in the capital. He brought his family's daughter and grandson back to visit relatives. He had nothing to do and went out to stroll around. When he saw a dim sum shop, he wanted to buy some to go back for his children to taste, but the disaster came.

I heard that the prefect later learned that his son had caused such a disaster. He was angry and anxious. He personally broke the incompetent young master's leg and then went to the door to apologize for others, so he didn't even go to the door.

Not long after, the whole family was uniformly put into prison and was escorted away.

Since then, who dares to cause trouble? Everyone takes it as a warning! Especially for officials, they ask their children every day to not bully others with power outside.

I am afraid that if I offend any Buddha, I will be dismissed from office at the least, and if I am afraid that the whole family will be destroyed.

After hearing this, Zhang Chuntao took the opportunity to inquire about the current prefect.

The waiter showed a little bit of disgrace. After looking around, there was no one, he whispered.

It is said that this new magistrate had taken office in Qingzhou Prefecture, but at that time it was naturally not a magistrate, but Qingzhou Prefecture. Later, he moved to another place, but now he has returned and has become a magistrate.

As for Lord Li, I had only been in office for a few months, but I couldn't tell anything. I only knew that I was quite low-key and did not make any new official's three frenzys.

Now, I still follow the rules of the previous prefects, but there is no big trouble.

After saying this, the shopkeeper who had been listening to the movement here kept coughing twice. The waiter immediately got up, shook the veil, and asked Zhang Chuntao and others to use it slowly. He went to find the middle-aged man.

Zhang Chuntao knew that he couldn't ask anything anymore, so he smiled and thanked the waiter.

Sure enough, when they finished their breakfast, the middle man had already stepped into the inn and was taken by the waiter to meet someone. Something the waiter had said to the middle man, but the middle man was very attentive and polite, and he didn't look like he looked down on others.

The middle-aged man's surname is Zhao, but he is a talkative person. After hearing the request of the three of them, he laughed and said that he happened to have two yards in his hand, which is suitable, one is in the poplar alley not far away, and the other is farther away. If you have time, it would be better to go and take a look.

The three of them followed Zhao Zhongren and slowly walked towards Yangshu Alley. The Zhongren slowly introduced him on the road.

As I walked along this way, I saw that the stalls on the roadside were placed in order, with some selling vegetables. The middle-aged man introduced that they were grown by farmers outside the city. Some of them could not finish eating at home, and some were grown for generations and sold to people in the city.

There are also people selling food, all kinds of food, and some people sell sugar sellers. They are at a small stall. Some children run to the store and say they want something. The people sell sugar sellers quickly draw one with sugar. Most of them are rabbits, dragons, tigers, etc.

Exquisite craftsmanship, done in one go.

Not to mention that Yang Zongbao had never seen him, he was stunned, even Zhang Chuntao couldn't help but take a look at him twice.

Zhao Zhongren was not in a hurry, and slowed down. He waited for the three of them to see enough before moving forward again.

Not long after, I turned into an alley with less crowds. There were also a few small stalls at the entrance of the alley, all of which were used for daily use, and occasionally someone visited them.

Walking inside and turning another corner, fewer people will appear to be quieter.

Occasionally, a few children ran past the alley. There were several doors on both sides of the alley. Women sat under the trees to do needlework and the elderly leaned against the wall to bask in the sun.

There were a few cats on the wall, leisurely passing by, and from time to time, they looked back at these strangers.

It was almost over and stopped at the door of a small yard. The two doors were painted with black paint, and the wind and sun were mottled. There was an iron general hanging on the door.

Zhao Zhongren untied the key from his waist, opened the lock, pushed the door in, and entered it. It was a small entry into the yard.

The yard is quite clean. Turning around the screen wall, there are three main rooms, and there are three rooms on both sides of the left and right. There are a few small houses here, which should be kitchen and utility rooms.

There are only a few simple furniture in the house. The most rare thing is that there is a well in the yard. Two osmanthus trees are planted, with lush branches and leaves. Although it is not yet the season for flowers to bloom, it is also pleasing to the eye.

Although Zhao Zhongren is talkative, he is not the kind of person who is so hyped. He only said that the owner of the house was also a scholar, but after passing the imperial examination, he naturally bought a big house and moved out.

The house was empty because the juren told him not to rent it to merchants who do business, but only to scholars, so it was empty.

Fortunately, they came early and the house was still empty. I waited for another ten days and half a month, but I was afraid that someone would rush to get the yard.

This place is not far from the most prosperous street. There is a well in the yard, so you don’t need to go to the entrance of the street to fetch water and pick it up. There are also many people selling vegetables and buying daily necessities along the way, which is convenient.
