Chapter 41: Visiting the capital
Steward Zhou is familiar with the way, and soon completed Bai Ling's explanation, and replaced the brand of the store with the Shadow Building, although the name of the Shadow Building is not known now, but Steward Zhou believes that one day, the Shadow Building will be famous all over the world.
This is Steward Zhou's self-confidence of following Bai Ling for several months, and Steward Zhou believes that Bai Ling is a god in the sky and will bring them hope to get rid of their previous fate. And now they have slowly rewritten their fate, from a precarious disaster victim to the current master.
Moreover, the ranks of the Shadow Building are constantly expanding, and when they bring back the next group of companions to receive the blessing of the White Spirit, then the strength of their forces will be even stronger.
However, because the ancient road is far away and the traffic is inconvenient, I am afraid it will take a long time for the Shadow House to bring people back.
Bai Ling has been in this world for so long, and he hasn't had a good time, in the past few months, Bai Ling has been cultivating seriously and practicing spells, and now that he has learned something, it's time to go out and have a good time. If you come to the Qing Dynasty and don't go around the capital, it will be really a waste.
In fact, in the real world, Bai Ling has never been to Beijing, and he has never been to the Forbidden City, so it is not bad to take a look at this antique capital now. It's a pity that I can't take a look at the Forbidden City, but at this time there are emperors and concubines, and there are countless treasures, which must be much better than traveling in later generations.
Bai Ling came to the capital city and found that it was really prosperous, too, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, how could it not be prosperous.
Bai Ling came to the streets of the capital and found that everything was sold, and Bai Ling wanted to buy some collections. Came to a porcelain stall, the porcelain at this time was very cheap, but if these porcelains were brought to modern times, it would be valuable, but Bai Ling did not plan to sell porcelain to make money, but was ready to buy two small pieces and enjoy them for himself.
Bai Ling turned to another street and found that a shop was doing very well, many people lined up, very strange, looked at the things they bought, a very delicate wooden box, I don't know what it is.
So Bai Ling asked a woman who looked like a little maid, "Girl, what are you selling here, why are there so many people?" ”
"What don't you know? What is sold here is soap, which is used for bathing, and the whole body is fragrant, and it is very clean, and the ladies and ladies in the capital like it. The little maid replied.
"Oh, it's soap, thank you." Bai Ling left here, but he didn't stop muttering in his heart.
How could something like soap come out now, this is not scientific, could it be that there are other people besides herself. It's not impossible, and adventures aren't unique to her. I just don't know what the other traverser is here for, anyway, she's just here to collect faith points, so she shouldn't have a conflict with the other traverser.
However, the traverser is afraid that it is not so easy to find Bai Ling, after all, Bai Ling has always been very low-key, and even if there is something, he will let his subordinates do it, so the possibility of conflict is very small.
But I don't know what special abilities that traverser has, it seems that I need to improve my strength, otherwise I really meet it when the time comes, and the other party is not friendly, so I also have the power to resist.
However, Bai Ling didn't pay too much attention to it, after all, it is not certain whether there is a traverser, and even if there is, it will not necessarily be an enemy of Bai Ling.
Bai Ling was tired of shopping, came to a restaurant, asked for a private room, ordered a lot of dishes, and began to feast. After eating, Bai Ling was also worried about how the believers would develop their business, after all, a freshly baked killer organization was difficult to convince.
Indeed, as Bai Ling thought, the killer's business is not easy to carry out, although the believers have set up a dark line, letting people know that there is such a killer organization. However, the killer organization is too little of a name for itself to believe that it can complete its mission. And because the strength of the believers is very high, the price of assassination is also very high, which makes people even more reluctant to hire the killers of the Shadow Building.
There was no way, in order to let the Shadow Building take a foothold, Bai Ling let many believers enter the homes of dignitaries and nobles as guards. This can not only play some role at critical times, but also because the strength of believers is not low, being a guard can get a lot of money and be reused by the master's family.
Of course, in the future, you can also serve as an intelligence officer of the Shadow Building, and it is very convenient to pass on information or something.
Because these people all became believers in Bai Ling, the deed of sale Bai Ling was exchanged for them, and the record was eliminated in the government.
Because these people have roots in this world, it is still easy to be recruited as guards. Of course, Bai Ling asked them not to show that they knew martial arts, but they were just better.
A full 200 believers were placed by Bai Ling in the mansions of various dignitaries, not only big officials, big families, but even the prince's mansion had Bai Ling's people.
With this group of undercover intelligence officers, Bai Ling will know what is going on in the families of high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital in the future.
Bai Ling remembered that there was a string of glass bracelets in his space, which was not valuable in modern times, but it was very valuable here, Bai Ling thought that there was not much silver in his space, so he took this string of glass bracelets in the pawnshop and got three hundred taels of silver.
Although it may be possible to sell it at a higher price here, but a glass bracelet for a few yuan can be sold for so much money, Bai Ling is already very satisfied, and he is too lazy to bargain.
Bai Ling came to the gate of the Forbidden City, looking at the guards guarding the door, obviously he couldn't get in, I don't know if there will be a chance to go in and have a look in the future. Bai Ling reluctantly left the gate of the Forbidden City, if she went back to share with her friends that she had been to the Forbidden City, they would definitely not believe it, but unfortunately she didn't bring a camera, if she could take a picture, it would be very collectible.
Seeing that the time was getting late, Bai Ling found another restaurant to eat, this restaurant is much more upscale than the previous one, and the food will be more delicious, Bai Ling is looking forward to it.
Bai Ling didn't want to eat in the hall, so he called a small private room and sat in the private room, while Bai Ling waited for the food to be served. But after a while, Bai Ling heard a noisy sound outside, and listened carefully, it seemed that someone had come to eat because there was no private room, and they quarreled.
It turned out to be a son-in-law and a fox friend who came to eat together, but there was no box, and the son-in-law asked the boss to quickly prepare one for them. As for the previous people in the box, in the eyes of those sons, it was an honor to be able to give them a place. Of course, if you don't agree to let it, of course, you will drive it away.
However, this restaurant seems to have a very good background, and the boss naturally disagrees with the expulsion, so he suggests that Brother Gongzi wait for a while, or eat in the hall.
