Chapter 9: The Banquet

As night fell, the street lamps that had just been erected this year on the main streets of Xiangping City were lit one by one by people from the government who were full-time in the government by taking ladders next to each other.

That's right, it's made of a glass cover with a street lamp with a hood and an oil core inside.

The entire Xiangping City suddenly became bright under the night. Instead of staying at home at nightfall, as in the past, people went out with family and friends.

Those who have money are in the major restaurants in Xiangping City to entertain friends and feast. But more people are ordinary people, in the "night market" prescribed by the government, to attract friends and companions, and eat something they like at the many stalls.

Even many female dependents, accompanied by their families, strolled around the major shops in Xiangping City to buy something they liked.

Such a scene made the businessmen and pedestrians who had just come to Xiangping City feel unusually "surprised", but more excited. In this era of war, such a prosperous scene made almost every person from other places who had just come to Xiangping City have an inexplicable good impression and emotion towards Xiangping City.

The many officials and entourage who accompanied the prince to Xiangping City were naturally no exception, and everyone also came out of the official residence that entertained them. Looking at the brightly lit streets and the endless flow of people, I was full of emotion.

See the world! I've really seen the world!

Who would have thought that in Jidu, Xiangping City, which thought it was a wild land, would be like this! It's so prosperous.

Two years ago, I also heard people say how prosperous Xiangping City is, but everyone still thinks it is a false statement. After accompanying the prince this time, since entering Liaodi, everyone's eyes were dazzled along the way, and everything they saw was novel.

Since entering Liaodi and stepping on the cement road in Ling'an County, everyone who accompanied the prince was "shocked". OMG! What kind of material is this made of, so sturdy and neat. Even many people, including the crown prince and the prince, stomped across the concrete pavement.

And when we came to Xiangping City, if we dared to say it, we would be completely "stunned". The walls and streets are made of concrete, and the inside of the city is outrageously clean. And the buildings on both sides of the street, one race and one luxurious.

It is said that thistle is the best city in Yan Kingdom, so what is this Xiangping City? Compared with Xiangping, Xiangping is more like the capital, okay? Especially at night, there is a constant stream of pedestrians and brightly lit shops and shops lining the streets.

By the way, there's also this street lamp. Anyone who has just come to Xiangping City, there is no one who does not stand under the street lamp at night, and is amazed. Many even gathered under the street lamps, pointing at the street lamps above and pointing.

No wonder, now almost all the big merchants of thistle have built their headquarters in Xiangping City, which is not comparable to thistle at all, okay?

In Meixianglou, the largest restaurant in Xiangping City, Shi Yong, who is now the acting governor and lieutenant general of Liaodong County, is entertaining his old friend Wu Yangjing in Jidu.

The commander who escorted the prince and Gongzixi, General Wu Yangjing, and Shi Yong, the captain under the prince, when he was in Jidu, could be regarded as a good friend, and the relationship between the two was quite good.

"Brother Wu, come, come, I haven't seen you for a few years, let's do this cup. It's a dude who picks up the wind and washes the dust for you. ”

Shi Yong warmly entertained Wu Yangjing, and the two of them, General Wu Yangjing, who was sitting opposite, touched the wine glass and poured the wine into their stomachs. Then the two looked at each other and laughed.

Shi Yong picked up the wine jug, poured it into the wine cup in front of Wu Yangjing, and refilled it with wine. Then he filled his own wine cup with wine. Wu Yangjing looked at the little wine cup and his eyes widened.

As a military general, in this era, there are not so many politenesses.

Wu Yangjing "clicked" his mouth and muttered to Shi Yong: "Brother Shi, this wine was only drunk two glasses at the reception banquet, and I didn't drink much." Good stuff! Can you get a small jar for my brother, I haven't seen this sold in Xiangping City! ”

When Shi Yong heard this, he looked at Wu Yangjing with a disdainful expression. You're only drinking two glasses at the reception? Don't look aggrieved and deceive, okay?

I'll sit next to you at the reception! The way you eat and drink makes me, an old friend, very embarrassed, and I'm just afraid to let my colleagues in Liaodi know that you are my friend, okay?

But as Wu Yangjing's friend, Shi Yong's personality is also relatively straightforward.

Shi Yong smiled and said to Wu Yangjing: "Brother Wu, the wine you said is in short supply now!" The price of this wine is now worth gold. But when you're outside, you can't buy it even if you use gold on the street! ”

Hearing Shi Yong say this, Wu Yangjing's face suddenly showed a disappointed expression.

Seeing Wu Yangjing's expression, Shi Yong showed his true character as a "hero" at this time, and laughed: "However, since Brother Wu said it, I will give you a small can!" Don't be too little! ”

"This small jar was sent to me by our little prince during the Chinese New Year last year. Brother Wu, I only sent me four small cans, I gave one can, drank two cans, and left a small can, and I will give it to you. ”

Looking at Shi Yong's painful appearance, Wu Yangjing hurriedly raised the wine cup in front of him, poured it into his mouth, and then praised it: "Brother Shi, comfortable, so comfortable." This is the real wine! ”

Seeing Shi Yong pick up the wine jug again, fill the wine cup in front of him, and said to Shi Yong: "Brother Shi, when you came to Liaodi. I heard that my brother and sister are crying secretly at home, this time, come to your house to see, my mother! You say, "You are doing a much better life than I am in thistle." ”

When Shi Yong heard this, he laughed out loud and said to Wu Yangjing: "Brother Wu, you don't know. When I first came to Liaodi with our family's princes, it was indeed in tatters. To tell you the truth, Xiangping City at that time was indeed far from Jidu. ”

"But can you think of it? The whole Liaodi, since our prince came, it has been like a day, I can't imagine it. It's been seven years since I came to Liaodi, and now Liaodi has become like this. ”

"Don't say you can't think of it, even our people in Liaodi can't think of it! Now I dare to say here, if you talk about the degree of prosperity, the entire Yanguo Xiangping City is said to be the second, and no one dares to say the first, do you believe it? ”

Wu Yangjing nodded, looked at the woolen cloth civilian clothes that Shi Yong was wearing, and carried a two-star Venus on his shoulder, he was so powerful and upright, and he was extraordinary. Looking down at the long-sleeved robe he was wearing, he was somehow aggrieved and extremely unbalanced.

put his head in front of Shi Yong and whispered to Shi Yong: "Brother Shi, let me tell you, now some people in the Jidu court say that you have the phenomenon of self-reliance in Liaodi. I ask you princes to go back to Jidu! This Liao land wants you princes to entrust someone to manage it! ”.
