Inside Chang 'an City.
The sky had just begun to brighten.
However, the autumn fog was so cold that it was as if the air had frozen. If one went out for a walk, he or she would come back with a head full of water vapor.
They were less than ten feet apart, so they could not see if there was anyone on the other side.
Even so, the sound of people coughing could be heard everywhere in the city. Some of them were teasing birds, and some of them were teasing dogs. They rose and fell one after another.
At this time in the past, everyone would be curled up at home, drinking tea, looking for a good friend to chat about anything under the sun. Or would they be early in the morning? They would head out of the city.
Or perhaps, he had started looking for work early on.
The entrance of the East Market and the entrance of the West Market were the best places to look for work. Because when it was time to open the market, countless businessmen would come. And their target was these businessmen. Whether it was transporting goods or helping people deliver goods, these were the most profitable things.
Or they would help the businessmen to occupy the stalls.
A slightly better stall could be sold for dozens of copper coins. If two businessmen quarreled over it, the price would be higher.
It should be known that except for the shops in the East Market and the West Market, there was only so much space. The government would never sell a piece of land casually. .
They were all smart people. .
Who would do such a stupid thing?
The government could still profit from it, so the higher-ups turned a blind eye to it. This had also become the rule of Chang 'an City.
Although there were fewer peddlers in Chang 'an City now, that was relative. After all, not many people could go to the Xiao Mountain Market. Those who could go anywhere had stalls in the Chang' an City Market.
But at this moment.
A few people from the Ministry of Internal Servants hurried over from the palace. Under everyone's astonished gazes, they posted a brand-new yellow notice on the wall. @!
In this era, yellow meant imperial power.
Something that could be posted on the bulletin board, and it was done by the Ministry of Internal Servants in person, was undoubtedly an imperial edict!
When the people saw that, they could not stay calm. As soon as the Ministry of Internal Servants left, they swarmed over.
Although most of them did not understand this thing, it did not stop them from joining in the fun. After all, this was the imperial list!
It was an imperial edict!
How many imperial edicts could one see in a lifetime?
Furthermore, how could she post it right in front of him?
If word of this got out, it would be a loss of face!
"What the hell is this?"
"Is there anyone with a big mouth? Come and see what's written here?"
"Who would recognize this word? Come and take a look! "
Everyone panicked.
Although they squeezed through the crowd quickly, they were dumbfounded when they surrounded him.
None of them were f * cking literate. What could they do if they surrounded him?
After a while, after a burst of chaos, a scholar was hurriedly invited over. This scholar was wearing the uniform of the Imperial College. When he saw the imperial edict on the board, he was very surprised.
He hurriedly read out the contents of the imperial edict.
The general meaning of the imperial edict was that the matter of the phosphate fertilizer was true, and the wheat sprouts that everyone saw yesterday were watered by the phosphate fertilizer. Furthermore, the Emperor, the Crown Prince, and the young Dukes had all personally participated and seen it.
Also, the sale and purchase of land had been abolished.
When the crowd heard this, they couldn't help but gasp.
This was real!
This phosphate fertilizer!
It was real!
Although the imperial edict was vague, this imperial edict seemed to explain a lot of things. That was, the matter of the phosphate fertilizer was true!
Although many people didn't dare to believe it, the wheat sprouts yesterday were absolutely true. Almost everyone had seen it.
However, if the phosphate fertilizer was real, how long would it take for it to be produced?
What was the price for it?
Who could use it?
The crowd couldn't help but burst into a commotion again.
Everyone wanted to know if this was true.
At the same time.
The Yixin Pastry Shop was blocked by people early on. It wasn't because the snacks here were delicious, nor was it because these people were so rich that they could suddenly afford to eat snacks.
Everyone knew that the shopkeeper of the Yixin Pastry Shop, Zhang Shan, was the father-in-law of the Dean of White Deer College, Zhang Feng. Moreover, he had also bought land yesterday.
Therefore, these people wanted to ask about the phosphate fertilizer. They even wanted to buy some land from Zhang Shan. After all, Zhang Shan was a well-known philanthropist, a great philanthropist.
They didn't dare to go to Zhang Feng's mansion. Not to mention that there was no one there, even if there were people there, they wouldn't dare to go!
The area of the Mansion of the Sixteenth Prince belonged to the entire Chang 'an City. Apart from the imperial palace, it was the only place where the imperial guards patrolled all day. Miscellaneous people were also not allowed to make a scene there.
These could be ignored. After all, although there was something wrong here, people could still enter. The only difference was the guards at the entrance of Zhang Feng's mansion.
Those guards were all retired from the military. Not only were they burly men, but they also exuded a murderous aura. Every time they looked at each other, they would feel goosebumps. Who would dare to go there?
Moreover, this matter was nothing else. Even if they went there, it would be useless!
Therefore, the crowd set their sights on Zhang Shan. They had heard that Old Master Zhang Shan had bought at least five hundred mu of land in the Chang 'an Local Government yesterday!
