Chapter 2794: 23rd year of Qianlong

I took out a mirror and took a picture. I felt that the braids were too ugly, so Shen Long retired from the guest room and went to the suburbs. He turned into a Taoist priest in a blink of an eye. It would be easy to learn Monkey King's 72 changes, otherwise he had to first. Let the hair grow out, then take out the robe from the space and put it on.
　　 Why do you want to become a Taoist priest? No way, in my Qing Dynasty, the only people who can be upright and do not shave are Taoists. Taoism was not very prosperous in the Qing Dynasty, and I don't know if this was one of the reasons.
　　 Follow the avenue to the next city. On the notice on the city gate, Shen Long knew the current year. It is now the 23rd year of Qianlong. If converted into the AD, it would be 1758.
In this year, Russia occupied East Prussia; Rousseau began to write "Theatrical Theory"; the 32,000 British troops led by Prince Ferdinand of the United Kingdom defeated 47,000 French troops in the Battle of Clifford in the Seven Years’ War. The French army rushed back to the west bank of the Rhine; Austria defeated Prussia in the Battle of Hokzi in the Seven Years' War.
In the same year, Washington resigned from his position in the militia after he was elected to the House of Commons in Virginia; Halley’s comet appeared for the first time in the predicted time, and the Czech astronomer Balic discovered it. The victory of human wisdom is a great victory of science.
　　 At this time, thirty-one years have passed since the death of the great Isaac Newton, eight years have passed since the industrial revolution in Europe began, and this ancient eastern country is still under the ignorance of the Qing Dynasty.
The soldiers at the city gate looked listlessly at the pedestrians entering and exiting. They only got a little more energetic when they charged the entrance fee and extortion. When Shen Long walked into the city gate, these soldiers saw Shen Long’s valuable robe. Not only did he confiscated his admission fee, but he also nodded and greeted with a smiling face.
When he entered the city and found a hotel, the shop Xiaoer hurriedly welcomed him into the elegant room. Shen Long ordered a few signature dishes and pondered while eating. Shen Long had already learned at the gate of the city that he is now in Hangzhou. He is quite familiar with Jiaxing Mansion nearby. He has lived here for a long time in the world of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
　　According to the memory, Xiaojian had just paid homage to his family in Hangzhou, and then he was going north to find Qianlong's revenge, and then Shen Long crossed over.
In this way, Xiao Yanzi has not yet met Ziwei, because in the original work, when Xiao Yanzi and Ziwei worshipped, they informed each other of their ages. Xiao Yanzi said that she only knew that she was born in the year of Renxu. The month is not clear; and Ziwei was also born in Renxu year! The birthday is the second day of August.
　　 The year of Renxu was the seventh year of Emperor Qianlong, 1742 AD. Sixteen years have passed since then. Even if calculated based on the imaginary age, neither Ziwei nor Xiaoyanzi is eighteen. Shen Long estimates that the plot will not really begin until next year.
The painting of Ziwei as a token reads "In the autumn of Xinyou year, misty rain on the shore of Daming Lake, draw this hand scroll, and talk for the rain and lotus appreciation." The signature is "The Baoli painted in October of Xinyou year! Here is me! Dad’s seal! The seal is engraved on the Changchun layman."
　　The year of Xinyou is 1741. Hongli and Xia Yuhe had a few shots on the banks of Daming Lake in October, and then the crape myrtle was born in August. This time is also right.
　　 I guess Xiao Yanzi should be a female snitch now in the capital, right? Hey, it's Xiaojian's younger sister anyway, I can get her back, so that she won't be able to get together with Ziwei and Yongqi in the future.
　　 After eating, Shen Long bought a horse and rode slowly towards the capital. It’s still early, so don’t rush to the capital. Let’s look at the lives of the people in Jiangnan while walking!
Originally, Shen Long was in a relatively relaxed mood, but he couldn't stand it anymore. Jiangnan is a place of wealth and prosperity, and he has also met a lot of suave and expensive sons, but the life of the people in the countryside is too hard. The landlord lost their homes because of the disaster, and they went bankrupt because they planted mulberry and raised silkworms but were squeezed by the silk industry...Similar situations emerged one after another, and people begging along the streets in cities abound.
　　 Hey, this is the so-called Kang-Qian heyday. I don’t know how to bring those literati who brag about the Manchu Qing to this time and let them experience the lives of these people? Shen Long muttered in his heart.
The Manchu Dynasty’s ability to collect taxes was stronger than that of the Ming Dynasty, especially after Qianlong’s father Yongzheng had entered the acres. His annual income was about 30 million taels of silver. However, his income was high and his expenses were also large. In addition to the Baqi’s iron crop position, Qianlong used soldiers for years , The cost is huge; now it has begun to patrol the north and the south, extravagant and wasteful, coupled with layers of corruption among officials, to fill their private pockets, the accumulation of years before has almost been drained.
At the same time, land annexation became more and more serious and people's life became more and more difficult. So in the late Qianlong period, various peasant uprisings broke out one after another. Teaching the Great Uprising, etc.~EbookFREE.me~ From this point of view, the foundation of the peasant uprising is there. Only a tight organization, plus a little spark, can completely ignite this decadent empire.
When I go to the capital to find Xiao Yanzi, then I will find a place to plan an uprising. It is easy to go directly to the Forbidden City to kill Qianlong, but it will be too cheap for him. If you want to do it, do it thoroughly and directly control the Qing Dynasty. Killed, and then let Qianlong die desolately, so enjoyable!
Leaving Jiaxing Mansion all the way to the north, came to Songjiang Mansion. Since the Ming Dynasty, there has been a saying that Songjiang clothing has been used by the world. The handicraft workshops here are extremely prosperous. It is a pity that the days of these operators are too miserable. The big businessmen are all rich. But the enemy country can't enjoy it every day, but they can barely survive.
Going further north, passing through Suzhou Mansion and Nanjing City. These two cities are also famous for being rich, but they are no different from other places. The rich live in luxury and the poor are hungry and cold. "There are frozen bones in the stinky road of Zhumen's wine and meat", Shen Long was sighed.
When he arrived at Jiangning Mansion that day, Shen Long found an inn to rest. In the evening, on a whim, he came out of the window and turned on the roof, planning to find an official to rob the rich and help the poor. Although there are gold and silver jewelry in his space, If you can make these officials unhappy, why not do it?
　　 stepped on the roof to prance all the way, and soon went inside the prefect’s yamen, went to the backyard and searched a pile of gold and silver from the prefect’s house, and Shen Long returned with a full load.
　　 But when I went back, a small courtyard caught Shen Long's attention.
