Chapter 708 Yu Jin's Observation
Zhang Yu asked Yu Jin to walk back and stop at the cities along the way, which naturally had ulterior motives.
Many of his soldiers and horses were also recruited from outside, and their sense of belonging to Jiangdong was not that strong yet.
Yu Jin also looks forward to what kind of Jiangdong this Jiangdong is.
Yu Jin and the others disembarked at the pier, and Zhang Yu reminded him to pay special attention.
First of all, this wharf is very different from the wharf in Jingzhou, it is bigger and busier.
At the same time, Yu Jin also knew that several piers along the road were so busy.
Busy pier, but orderly.
As for the ban, it depends on the status of these workers.
It has to be said that their status is not found elsewhere.
The workers here are active, not lifeless, and their faces are full of joy.
Moreover, the workers work in an orderly manner, and it is obvious that the management level here is also very high.
"Hey, not only are they not afraid of soldiers, but they also respect them."
Yu Jin saw that the workers on the road would give way to their army, and they didn't look unhappy at all.
But Yu Jin also thought that these workers were raised by Zhang Yu, and the army was also raised by Zhang Yu, so they respected them more.
Yu Jin didn't jump to conclusions, but continued to watch.
The army quickly lined up at the pier, and then went to the nearby city.
The army is naturally neat and orderly.
Yu Jin saw that the road here was easy to walk, flat, wide, and relatively clean.
It was inevitable to meet many men, women and children on the road, but instead of avoiding them, they stood on the side of the road and watched the army pass by.
In other places, no matter whose army is, even if the army does not bully them, they will avoid it.
army,
Many armies have the habit of bullying ordinary people.
I have to say that it feels really good to be noticed and respected by the people.
Yu Jin continued to advance, and then entered the city.
After entering the city, similarly, the people here have not changed much. The city here is very prosperous, more prosperous than any city they have ever seen.
Similarly, the people in the city will take the initiative to give way, and then watch them pass.
Yu Jin was a little uneasy. It was more than ten miles from the pier to here, and the people they met were all the same.
The people here can tell from their clothes and facial expressions that they are living well.
It is winter at this time, and the busy farming will last about a month, so the people are more free.
There are a lot of people in the city, they take advantage of their free time to go shopping in the market, some are shopping and some are selling.
This simple thing can tell a lot, not to mention that there are no beggars in the city, but that they have this leisure time, at least it can be seen that they are full to eat and have clothes to wear.
Yu Jin understands that many people, because they don't have enough to eat, go out less, so that they don't get hungry easily.
In addition, there are usually no winter clothes at home, and it is usually for whoever wants to go out to wear them.
But the people here are obviously not like this. Many of them come out of the family, eat well and wear warm clothes.
This is an incredible thing in China at this time.
However, Yu Jin saw it in Jiangdong.
Yu Jin didn't know if this was in one place, or because it was the core of Jiangdong.
Yu Jin buried many questions in his heart, and then slowly explored by himself.
After entering the city, they began to rest.
After marching for so long, according to the plan, Yu Jin and the others can rest here for two days before going to the designated location.
This is a city near the pier. Zhang Yu will set up many points in the city along the Yangtze River to allow the army to quickly assemble and disperse.
For two days, Yu Jin had a lot of freedom.
He had only 10,000 people along the way, so Zhang Yu dispersed his troops along the way, put the boats at the docks, and returned them to the people who used them.
"Go to other places, as long as you come back on time." Yu Jin thought about his plans for tomorrow, and then fell asleep.
Yu Jin woke up very early the next day.
After getting up, he took a few guards, changed into his usual clothes, and left the barracks.
As soon as the gate of the city was opened, Yu Jin galloped out. More than a dozen fast horses galloped wildly. After running for more than 20 miles, Yu Jin and the others slowed down.
Get off the horse and walk slowly, observing the customs here.
On the country road, the people Yu Jin saw were similar to those in the city.
Yu Jin, who didn't believe in evil, ran for dozens of miles and looked at it again, and the situation was still the same.
I ran to several places in a row, and there are many villages here, and they are very peaceful.
What Yu Jin couldn't understand was that after traveling to many places, the most common thing he saw was the wedding ceremony.
This is the slack time for farming, and the common people take advantage of this time to get married so as not to delay the farming season.
Yu Jin and the others had the cheek to attend two weddings.
A lot can be seen from the wedding.
The food and drink at the wedding was not considered good, but the people here were able to set up more than a dozen tables, or three or five tables of banquets, which was quite good.
There are many places where there are banquets, simply hold a wedding and lead the daughter-in-law in.
It is a problem to have enough food at home that night, let alone a wedding.
There was also a dowry at the wedding. The dowry was not worth much, but it could be seen that the people were doing well.
Moreover, Yu Jin's participants were not from wealthy families, but from ordinary families.
Through careful observation, it can be seen that the people around take this for granted, that is to say, most of the people here are like this.
Yu Jin and the others attended the wedding and received a warm reception. They also provided a lot of useful information at the banquet.
What shocked Yu Jin was that this was not the core area of Jiangdong.
This is Danyang County, and the most prosperous and richest are undoubtedly Kuaiji County and Wu County.
"What kind of Jiangdong is this Jiangdong?"
Yu Jin believed it, and believed that Zhang Yu could borrow so much money from the private sector.
Not to mention other things, Yu Jin knew that those who held weddings, as long as they were willing to borrow, the family would definitely have to borrow dozens to hundreds of dollars.
The most important thing is to be willing to borrow.
If most of the Jiangdong people are willing to borrow, what a huge force it is, and how high is Zhang Yu's support.
Yu Jin is unimaginable.
After two days of investigation, Yu Jin did not return until the second night.
When he returned, he could not enter the city, and he joined the army after dawn.
This time, Yu Jin's destination was Kuaiji County, and Zhang Yu had arranged for him to travel such a long distance.
Zhang Yu's purpose is to give Yu Jin an intuitive understanding of Jiangdong, so that he can use it smoothly in the future.
From Zhang Yu’s point of view, the changes in Jiangdong are huge. I have been running Jiangdong for several years, but I haven’t seen him for almost a year. The changes are so huge that even I am surprised, let alone Yu Jin who has never been to Jiangdong.
Zhang Yu and the others have been traveling down the Yangtze River, but the difference is that the size of the fleet is getting smaller and smaller.
