Chapter 37: Returning to Jinzhou, The Great Fire's Transformation
Second Year of Longxing Period, Jinzhou Prefecture.
Unknowingly, a year has passed since Jinzhou was promoted to a prefecture-level city.
The rooster crows, and the sky is bright.
The splendid sunlight sprinkles on the orderly green tiles and red walls, and a gentle breeze blows up the colorful shop flags. People and horses pass by in an endless stream.
Ever since the Xia's Empress upgraded Jinzhou to Jinzhou Prefecture, the favorable conditions provided by the government and the reduced taxes have attracted more merchants to do business here, making Jinzhou Prefecture even more prosperous.
On the street, passers-by look at an open shop and discuss.
"Is Huai Family's small shop open again? Who's the woman inside?"
"I remember, hasn't this pawnshop been closed for a year? No one bought its location in a year. It's so strange."
"Didn't the Pawnshop Young Master die?"
Inside the pawnshop at this moment.
