Chapter 40: Da Chang'an Meets Old Acquaintance (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation Votes)

"Fei'er, I have to trap you too!" Geng Xiaofan took off the Chanel diamond ring on his little finger and gently put it on Liu Feier's ring finger.

Hey! It's not too big, it's just right!

"It's beautiful!" Liu Fei'er's eyes widened, she had never seen such a beautiful ring.

"yes, it's beautiful!" Geng Xiaofan was talking about Fei'er's hand, and couldn't help but kiss her green fingers lightly.

"Fei'er, I'm leaving, don't be idle at home, I'll assign you a task, you ...... like this"

"You, you," Liu Fei'er was stunned for a moment, then turned into a smile, "but what you said also makes sense. ”

"If it makes sense, go for it." Geng Xiaofan smiled, and reluctantly let go of Liu Fei'er.

Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and Geng Xiaofan went south along the official road. A few days later, I came to the Weihe crossing, and Chang'an City was already in sight.

Although it was nearly dusk, the ferry port was still busy.

Geng Xiaofan frowned, is Dachang'an so prosperous?

After taking a closer look, he found a problem, there were not many people coming out of Chang'an City, but there were long queues of people going to Chang'an, and most of them were young and middle-aged.

He grabbed a young man who was crossing the river, "Little brother, what are you going to do when you enter the city at this time?" ”

"Go to work!" Xiao Young looked at him carefully, "You're a foreigner!" Princess Yang'a built the princess's mansion and recruited craftsmen, and the remuneration was not bad, hehe! ”

"Oh, that's it!" Geng Xiaofan understood, it seems that the Han Dynasty was popular for "migrant workers" to go to the city to work. That's right, at this time, there is no farm work in the field, and it is not bad to be able to do a temporary short-term job to subsidize some households.

After crossing the ferry, he soon came to the kitchen city gate, and Geng Xiaofan led the horse and began to walk. When he went out this time, his "father-in-law" was full of entanglement, and now he has a lot of money, and he should be able to be "chic and chic" in this legendary metropolis.

Not far from the city, Geng Xiaofan found an inn. After settling down, he decided to take a look around Dachang'an. He had already inquired clearly, and the northwest corner of the city was the east and west cities, not far away.

"Buy horses in the east market, and saddle sheath in the west market." Geng Xiaofan walked around and found a problem. There are no horses sold in the East Market, but they are all handicraft products, while horses, cattle and sheep are all in the West Market, and most of them are merchants from the Western Regions.

"I've been pitted by Mulan again!" Geng Xiaofan whispered to himself, it seems that those ancient poems that have been circulated for thousands of years cannot be fully believed. Merchants from the Western Regions entered the city from Yongmen in the west and went directly to the West Market, and they would no longer go to the East Market. It should be said that the city of mules and horses is reasonable in the west market, and it is true.

When I was tired of shopping, I bought two flax cakes, and a bowl of haggis soup came to the roadside shop, Geng Xiaofan took out fine salt and pepper from his arms, and mixed a bowl of "haggis steamed buns" for himself, and he was comfortable and addicted.

"Geng Gongzi!" Geng Xiaofan had just eaten a full meal when he heard someone calling him behind him.

Looking back, it turned out to be Zhou Da with his buddy Xiaosi.

"Brother Zhou, Little Four, why are you here?" Geng Xiaofan didn't expect that he could meet acquaintances in this "unfamiliar" city!

"Let's buy some goods and get ready to go home for the New Year! Gongzi Geng, why are you here? "Zhou Da and Xiao Si drove a carriage and pulled a cart of miscellaneous goods.

"I'm also going home, passing by here, and walking around Chang'an City by the way. Hey! Geng Xiaofan hurriedly explained, calculating the time, Zhou Da should have just returned from selling horses outside the Saiwai.

"What a coincidence! It's unexpected! Zhou Da couldn't hide his excitement.

"It's also a great blessing in life to meet an old acquaintance in a foreign country, Brother Zhou, why just the two of you and the others?"

"They live in a post station outside the city, and it's not convenient to get in and out of the city, so I only took Xiaosi."

"Far away?"

"It's not far away, it's not close. Outside the Anmen, you have to pass through the city. ”

"Are you done? Why don't I invite you to have a drink, I live in Weiyi Chuansha, not far from here. "Geng Xiaofan has been riding alone all this way, and he is almost bored to death.

"Alright! Little four, let's get drunk with Geng Gongzi tonight and go out of the city tomorrow! ”

"Haha!" Geng Xiaofan was happy, it seems that Zhou Da really wanted to slaughter himself.

The three of them happily returned to the house, and after settling down, they sat down.

"Geng Gongzi remembered his hometown?" After a few glasses of wine, Zhou Da couldn't help but ask curiously. After more than a month of doing business with Geng Xiaofan, he always said that he didn't remember it, but he was going back to his hometown at this time.

"I'm ashamed to say that I seem to have amnesia." Geng Xiaofan made it up blindly and took out the "official note" from his arms, "The lord of Liubao helped me find the household version, and I realized that my original home was helping the wind." He didn't mean to "show off" in front of Zhou Da, he really wanted to understand the life of the Han Dynasty through Zhou Da.

Zhou Da took the "household version", looked at it carefully, and was surprised! "It turned out to be Lord Geng! Gee! ”

"What? Isn't it amazing? Geng Xiaofan pretended not to care.

"You must have encountered some special circumstances, your identity, if you don't go home for so long, your family must be in a hurry!" Zhou Da carefully returned the "household version" to Geng Xiaofan.

"I'm ashamed, I can't remember anyone else at home." Geng Xiaofan still pretended not to care, but he had already determined that his "Han identity" should still have a very high social status.

"By the way, Brother Zhou, you have traveled back and forth to Chang'an many times, what are the interesting places in this Chang'an City?" Geng Xiaofan can be regarded as finding a "guide".

"Chang'an City! There are many interesting places in Chang'an City, but unfortunately not for those of us who can go. Zhou Da took a sip of wine, his eyes full of "longing and yearning".

"Brother Fan, no lord, do you know Changle and Weiyang, there is an Anmen Avenue between the two palaces, where you can play whatever you want!" Xiao Si couldn't help but interject.

"Don't call me any lord, it sounds awkward, you still call me Brother Fan." Geng Xiaofan touched a bowl of wine with Xiao Si, and then asked, "Xiao Si, tell me about this Chang'an City." ”

"Chang'an City is actually quite simple, with three gates in the east, west, north and south. The largest is the south side of the Anmen Gate, and an Anmen Avenue in the Anmen divides Chang'an City into two halves. To the west is Weiyang Palace, and to the east is Changle Palace. To the north of Weiyang Palace is the North Palace, Gui Palace, and to the north of Changle Palace is Mingguang Palace. The east and west cities we went to just now are the northwest corner of Chang'an City, and out of the west Yongmen, it is the Xianyang Ancient Road......"

Xiao Si "knew everything about the layout of Chang'an City" and introduced it to Geng Xiaofan endlessly.

"According to what you said, Chang'an City is full of palaces, where do the common people live?" Geng Xiaofan also roughly understood that these famous palaces have occupied Chang'an City, so to speak, Han Chang'an City is the royal Chang'an City!

"Ordinary people! The princes and nobles had no place to live, let alone the common people. Xiao Si laughed.

"The princes and nobles don't have a mansion in Chang'an City?" This was somewhat unexpected by Geng Xiaofan.

"Yes, not much! Most of their mansions are outside the city. ”

"Oh, that's it!" Geng Xiaofan understood.

"Little four, come and give you a bowl!" Geng Xiaofan has always had a good impression of this little four, the young man usually doesn't talk much, but he is smart and clever, and he is reassuring.

"Brother Fan, I also respect you!" Xiao Si didn't say a word, and also picked up the wine bowl.

After the N patrol, Zhou Da had a sense of wine and patted Geng Xiaofan's shoulder, "Geng, Geng, Brother Xiaofan, I met you as a nobleman!" ”

"What kind of noble man am I." Geng Xiaofan thought that Zhou Da was polite.

"You asked me to go back and forth to Yanmen in Chang'an, and my business journey is more than half of the way. The goods you asked me to bring you, although they are not much, but the price is so high, it will not delay me from transporting other goods. In the past six months, I have earned more than last year! Brethren will have a fat year this year! "Zhou Da's tongue is a little big.
