Qian Yiqun stepped into the door, bowed his head and said, "I am a monk from Qionglong Mountain, known as a kind person. He has met the master of the mansion and the master of the guest."

The mansion and the guest were both stunned. But they saw the man wearing a brand new round-edged Taoist robe, three-piece Taoist robe, water socks, cranes, and round soap shoes. A soap-colored belt around his waist was hung with a shiny rattan fish basket. His steps were like the wind, and his hands were raised calmly. He was such a wealthy and idle Taoist, a beautiful and mysterious guest.

Seeing that Qian Yiqun was so young, they had an extraordinary temperament. They stood up and returned the gift. The mansion presented his name and name. It turned out that he was also a famous artist in the painting world, with his name and name Wuquanshan. This guest was even more famous in Jiangdu, with his surname Zheng, his name Yuanxun, his name Chaozong, and his name Huidong. This year, he was given the status of a juren on the Bang Bang, but he had no intention of the next year's spring exam and devoted himself to landscape painting.

Qian Yiqun heard the name of the Mansion Lord on his left ear and went out with his right ear. However, he couldn't help but take a look at Zheng Yuanxun. This Hui Donggong is only 35 or 36 years old this year, and he is just a second-rate figure in the history of painting, with few works he has passed down. However, this person has two things worthy of praise.

One is that this person is extremely filial. In order to support his mother, he spent a lot of money to build the world's famous garden - the Film Garden.

The two are this man, and the powerful general Gao Jie was going to enter Yangzhou during the Southern Ming Dynasty. The officials and the people of Yangcheng did not accept it, and their power was the same as the fire and water. Zheng Yuanxun and Gao Jie had old friends and negotiated, just to fight against the Qing Dynasty. Who knew that those who said the words were heard by mistake. The people in Yangcheng thought that Zheng Yuanxun was Gao Jie's spy. In anger, they chopped Zheng Yuanxun into meat sauce, so they said that they were the ones who sold the city.

Later, Shi Kefa entered Yangzhou and made Zheng Yuanxun clear. Unfortunately, the death was gone, and the army of Zheng's family in Jiangdu completely declined.

Qian Yiqun visited the remains of the cinema in his previous life and knew a lot about Zheng Yuanxun. Naturally, he had no feelings at that time, but now as a native of the Ming Dynasty, he was deeply moved. He stepped forward and bowed deeply, and said, "It turns out that it is Huidong Gong, who has long been admired."

Zheng Yuanxun's painting achievements were not yet achieved, and no one had ever been so serious about him, and he was surprised.

The Master of the Mansion was naturally a little displeased and said to himself: Master, I am a great Jinshi, a pastor, and a senior in the painting world. If you don’t come to worship him, it’s really unreasonable to praise him!

"Did the Taoist priest come to Yangcheng to appreciate the jade flowers?" asked the Master of the Mansion.

Qionghua is also known as the Gathering Eight Immortals, butterfly flowers. The flowers are as big as plates and as white as jade. They are widely distributed, but only the Qionghua in Yangzhou is famous all over the world. This is naturally the contribution of Emperor Yang of Sui. In order to appreciate the Qionghua in Jiangdu, he sent people to dig the Grand Canal, which is also a miserable thing that has been a generation of hardships and has benefited thousands of years.

"Didn't the Qionghua bloom in early spring? It's just winter is coming." Qian Yiqun said curiously.

Zheng Yuanxun smiled friendly in order to say "Long-term" just now, "The ordinary jade flowers bloom in early spring. The jade flowers mentioned by Wuquan Gong are the only beautiful flowers in the world. The flowers bloomed last month, but have not yet bloomed yet. Not only are the people of Yangcheng rushing to witness them, but all the romantic tourists from the south and north of the Yangtze River came to hear the news."

Qian Yiqun said, "I have never heard of this. I just wanted to go to the capital and passed by Guizhou."

"Mr. Wuquan and I were just talking about it, "This flower blooms is auspicious and strange?" Zheng Yuanxun smiled and said, "What do you think of Taoist priest?"

"The Taoist stood far and looked." Qian Yiqun joked.

As soon as this said, Wuquan Duke immediately made Duke Wuquan laugh and said, "This Taoist is so joking, he is such a wonderful Taoist!"

After they finished laughing, there was no barrier between the atmosphere during the meal. Qian Yiqun said: "The Taoist was entrusted by his old friends to send three ladies to Beijing to visit. Therefore, it was not convenient to stay in the inn and travel, so he borrowed the banner of Xuanzhu Gong and wanted the Grand Master of the Central Government to help find a more refreshing and quiet house, and leave for three or five days."

The Master of the Mansion laughed and said, "Since you have been esteeming Huidong Duke for a long time, don't you know that he is the richest man in Yangcheng?"

"Oh?" Qian Yiqun was really surprised.

If nothing unexpected happened, Zheng Yuanxun would be a Jinshi in the 16th year of Chongzhen and served as the head of the Qing Lishu Department of the Ministry of Personnel. Qian Yiqun only thought that he must have not passed the imperial examination now, and did not know if the cinema garden had been repaired, so he did not go to bed directly. After hearing what the prefect of Yangzhou said, he remembered Zheng Yuanxun's family industry.

Salt merchant.

Salt has been a huge profit since ancient times. Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the State, broke the thousand-year-old specialty of the salt court, allowing merchants to sell grain to the three sides, and then converted it into salt turbulence. With salt turbulence, you can sell salt legally, and even if you lose money in selling grain, you can make a lot of money back on salt.

This so-called "salt-care food" was only convenient for food and agriculture in Guanzhong at the beginning, so most of the salt merchants in the early days were from Shaanxi. In the fifth year of Hongzhi, Ye Qi, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, changed the "Kaizhong Fa" to the "color-shaving method" that exchanged silver for reference. In this way, Hui merchants in the two Huaihe Rivers could also participate in this feast. The reason why Ye Shangshu did this was because he was from Huaian, Jiangsu. The benefits of the villagers' party were shown.

In contrast to the "border merchants" of Qin and Jin, Hui merchants in Huai and Huai were called "internal merchants". Zheng's family was originally from Anhui and lived in Yangzhou. They were a son of a well-known and beautiful merchant.

"The Master of the Mansion is also a joke. He is only a well-off family." Zheng Yuanxun said humbly, "If the Taoist priest needs to live temporarily, there is a garden in the southwest of Yangcheng, the north lake of the lotus pond, and the east bank of the Erdao River. Last month, Dong Xuanzai came and lived there. He also wrote a garden name, called "Cinema Garden."

"A blessing in disguise!" Qian Yiqun said in his heart: How did his wings flap here? The movie garden should have been completed in the seventh year of Chongzhen? Moreover, the name of the garden written by Dong Qichang should only appear next year.

Qian Yiqun asked, "Is this movie park completed?"

"That's right." Zheng Yuanxun was quite excited and said, "This is indeed the credit of the dog son."

Qian Yiqun nodded, thinking in his mind why the movie park was completed four years ahead of schedule. Although it was a small matter, it was a place where the history changed. When Zheng Yuanxun talked about his son, Qian Yiqun asked, "Is the son-in-law an expert in civil engineering?"

"That's not." Zheng Yuanxun smiled, "I'm quite curious about this. When he asked for this job that day, I thought he would definitely not be able to do it. Unexpectedly, he not only recruited people and built the garden beautifully, but also saved a lot of money. He asked him, but he was a mysterious secret and refused to say it."

"I'm afraid I've got the help of the gods." Wuquan Gong laughed.

Qian and Zheng laughed. Qian Yiqun said in his heart: Which unlucky god is coming to help someone build a garden. He had another thought in his heart and thought to himself: Could it be the Five Ghosts's transport technique? If you have time, you can visit one or two.

Since the place where he lived was settled, Qian Yiqun was also impatient to be happy to serve the prefect here, so he found an excuse to say goodbye. Zheng Yuanxun also felt that it was almost done, so he said goodbye with him.

When he got outside, Zheng Yuanxun got into a sedan chair and went to Huaiyangke with Qian Yiqun to pick up the ladies. When he arrived at the place, he saw three beautiful women who were as beautiful as flowers and jade, and he couldn't help but think in his heart: Is this Taoist looking at his righteousness, is it also a technique of yin and yang dual cultivation?

After a while, the shopkeeper led a donkey and a deer, which scared Zheng Yuanxun and said to himself: This Taoist riding a deer is a god-like figure. Yes, he came from Suzhou, and the rest were all covered in dust, but he was refreshed and had no dust at all. It turned out that he was a Taoist man!

Therefore, Zheng Yuanxun was even more willing to stay in Qian Yiqun, and he was inevitably thinking about how to ask some secrets for health care and worship his mother.

The group walked through the streets and alleys, attracting the people to stop and watch the business and travelers, all amazement at the world where there were such a majestic big-horned deer, and also surprised that there were monks with such a charm.

After leaving Yangzhou City, I walked all the way and saw that the plaque in the movie garden had been hanging for some time. Qian Yiqun looked slightly and recalled his trip to Yangzhou in his previous life, which made him feel like he was revisiting the old place.

The entire movie garden is surrounded by water in front and back, and Shugang, which is separated by water, winds and undulates, making the mountainous scene. The water is surrounded by willow trees and reeds, which become yellow only because of the solar term. The main entrance of the movie garden is open eastward, and the water is across the south city, with peaches and willows planted like the foot of the shore, and they are called "Little Peach Garden" by the locals.

"The Taoist priest is from Suzhou, do you know what we Yangzhou people mean by Shugang?" Zheng Yuanxun changed his horse and rode alongside Qian Yiqun, and was much cheerful.

Qian Yiqun was about to say that he didn't know, but Yang Ai, who was behind him, had already stepped forward and said, "The ancient sounds of Shu are not divided, and there are two sounds from behind the Six Dynasties. It must be the meaning of Dugang." Yangzhou is flat, and there is only one high ground near Yangcheng. If the ancient sounds are close, the so-called Dugang is indeed a good idea.

Zheng Yuanxun smiled and said, "I don't want a little maid to be so well-informed and knowledgeable. He is a true god."

Qian Yiqun smiled slightly and said, "The Taoist cannot keep slaves."

"Then this is..." Zheng Yuanxun said curiously.

"I am the Taoist priest's servant." Yang Ai said proudly.

"Ha, hehe." Zheng Yuanxun smiled and said to himself: Isn't this all the same?

The Quanzhen precepts prohibit the raising of slaves, but workers can be hired. This is the difference between maids and waiters. Qian Yiqun did not have a scarf and was not considered a Taoist priest of Quanzhen, but he received a certificate from Zhao Jianyuan and brought Yunshui's visit to the Zhenguan. He had a Hunyuan scarf on his head. From the outside, he was a Taoist priest of Quanzhen.

Qian Yiqun originally had no concern for the sect, but since he borrowed other people's clothes, it would be better not to get dirty. Therefore, he kept the precepts very strictly along the way. Whether it is food, or behavior, the Ten Priests of Chu Zhen are used as the criterion.

When everyone entered the gate, they saw a mountain path, surrounded by pine and fir trees, and occasionally they could see plums, apricots, pears, and chestnuts. Unfortunately, the plum blossoms had not bloomed, but the fruit trees had already failed.

At the end of the mountain road, there is an open land. There is a tea-filled shelf on the left, and there are reeds outside the shelf. There is a small water stream on the right, and there is a sparse bamboo and short fence on the other side of the bank, which is a scene of a farmhouse.

After two gates, this was the real garden. Everyone arrived at the Banfu Pavilion. Qian Yiqun turned over and looked at the water view in front of him, and said, "This garden is not big at first sight, but when you walk, you can see the scenery step by step, which is very attractive."

Zheng Yuanxun said: "Indeed, I invited Jicheng from Zhenjiang to build this garden. I originally wanted to imitate a painting of mine, but Jicheng turned into a real scene, which was more popular than my work. He was indeed a talented person." He praised his own garden by praising others. The listener felt that he was humble and he was also addicted to it. (To be continued.
