Chapter 161: Great Wilderness City
Hearing Zhao Xin say this, everyone was stunned.
I couldn't think of that shy young man being of great use to Da Qin at all.
However, among the crowd, Cao Xiong and Li Cunxiao don't need to say it, and Nan Luoying will not suspect that Zhao Xin's words are untargeted.
The getting along along the way from this tour made Nan Luoying feel more and more that Zhao Xin was not only not the faint gentleman rumored outside, but even different from Zhao Xin, who she usually did not have an in-depth understanding.
In particular, when he looks at problems, he always seems to have a unique opinion that she can't understand at once, but when she thinks about it carefully, she feels that it makes sense.
And she could feel that Zhao Xinzhong had a very grand plan for the future.
Then Zhao Xin said that the young man would be of great use to Daqin, and it should be really useful.
She regretted a little that she hadn't been able to help Zhao Xin keep the boy just now.
Zhao Xin didn't care too much, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, as long as he is still in the Great Wilderness City, he will have a chance, and he may not be the person I thought of." ”
Cao Xiong said in a low voice: "Childe, do you want people to stare at him?"
Zhao Xin smiled, shook his head and said, "No need, if you let him have a misunderstanding, it will backfire." ”
As he spoke, he beckoned the Kong brothers and sisters and said, "Jun Kong, Miss Kong, let's go into the city too." ”
The Kong brothers and sisters smiled and nodded in agreement, but they were secretly guessing Zhao Xin's identity in their hearts.
They had already heard that Zhao Xin's position seemed to be on the side of the Great Qin Imperial Court, and he was also surnamed Zhao, so it must be the Great Qin clan.
But the current Emperor of Great Qin doesn't seem to have any heirs, and if he has heirs, he is not so old, which brother of the emperor is it?
Of course, the two of them still couldn't imagine that the person in front of them was actually the Great Qin Emperor.
The group immediately hugged Zhao Xin and went to the city.
Because the Kong brothers and sisters did not have mounts, but when they asked, they could both ride horses, so Nan Luoying asked the guards of the Nan family to evenly divide the mounts with two horses.
Anyway, they have a lot of horses, and they are basically one person and two horses.
The Kong brothers and sisters didn't push too much, after all, everyone was riding horses, and the two of them definitely couldn't walk.
You can only decide to buy a mount after entering the city.
This time, the process of entering the city went smoothly, and no one stopped it, but the gatekeeper was obviously deliberately targeting them, and the entrance tax was usually only a few big dollars.
They actually asked for a consistent amount of money per person.
Zhao Xin and the others didn't bother to bother with him in this kind of place, just glanced at this person, and asked Cao Xiong to take out a gold leaf and throw it over.
The gatekeeper smiled when he got the golden leaf, and looked at the back of Zhao Xin and the others leaving, looking very proud.
However, the soldiers next to him looked at Zhao Xin and the others who didn't look like ordinary people, and said with some worry: "Team rate, these people don't look like ordinary people, let's not do this, right?"
Hearing this, the city gate official glanced at him, "Nonsense, can ordinary people take out gold?"
"That ......"
"Then what, that, this is the Great Wilderness City, the dragon has to be coiled, and the tiger has to lie down. ”
The gatekeeper sneered, and then scolded his soldiers: "Don't be verbose, give me to be careful, because of the treasure of Emperor Yu in the past two days, our great wilderness city is very chaotic, don't give a fork, otherwise Hugh blames the team for being polite." ”
"Wow. ”
The soldiers agreed, not daring to say more.
At the same time, Zhao Xin and the others had already seen the scene in the Great Wilderness City, but he was a little disappointed.
I thought that although this great wilderness city was not a big city, it was also an important town near the Great Wilderness Mountain, and I heard that the dishes in the capital were imitated by wine shops in this great wilderness city, and I thought it was more prosperous.
But after entering the city, I found that it was far from the case.
Although it is better than other places in the state.
But the divide between the rich and the poor here is also more severe, with tall mansions carved and painted on one side and low thatched shacks on the other.
Although there are a lot of merchants in the city, these don't seem to have much to do with the local ordinary people, and most of the people who do business with those merchants seem to be mountain people wearing local costumes.
Moreover, these natives often roared around the city in groups, one by one, with swords and bows.
When the local Qin people saw it, they often avoided it from afar, as if they were afraid of getting into trouble.
Seeing this, Zhao Xin couldn't help frowning slightly.
When I arrived at the pavilion, I found that there were a large number of mountain people dressed in local costumes.
However, not all of these mountain people live in the pavilion, and the only ones who can really live in the pavilion and post stables are the leaders of these natives.
Most of the local people are crowded at the bottom of the eaves under the corridor, horizontally and vertically, and there are people who raise bonfires under the post corridor, drink and sing, and make loud noises, looking at it is very lively.
Nan Luoying and Xiaocui couldn't help but be very curious when they saw this.
And when those natives saw beautiful Qin women like Nan Luoying, Xiaocui and Kong Xuan, their eyes lit up one by one, and they even shouted at them presumptuously.
Nan Luoying and the others' faces couldn't help but change, although they couldn't understand what they were shouting, but they knew by looking at their expressions that it was not a good word.
Seeing this, all the guards of the Nan family pulled out their swords with a "hurry".
Zhao Xin, Li Cunxiao and others also had gloomy faces.
Seeing this, the natives restrained a little, but they didn't have much fear.
Even make some provocative gestures and expressions towards them.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry!"
Seeing that the two sides were tense, a post guard finally hurriedly ran out to dissuade him, "Guest, these mountain and wild natives are very rude, and the guests don't have to worry about them in general, otherwise they are outnumbered, and it is you and you who will suffer." ”
Then he turned around and shouted a few words to those people in the native language, and the local people bared their teeth and laughed, and sat down again.
But there was a lot of disdain in his expression.
Zhao Xin and the others couldn't help frowning when they saw this.
He asked the officer, "What did you tell them?"
The post guard hurriedly laughed and said: "It's nothing, I just told them that the guests are all nobles among our Qin people, and if there is a good one, they will not be able to eat and walk around!"
"You can talk to both sides. ”
Zhao Xin and the others didn't know if what he said was true or not, so they couldn't help but sneer, but they still put away their weapons, after all, they didn't want to really clash with these natives.
However, everyone couldn't help but wonder how suddenly they were so arrogant in this great desolate city.
You must know that today's Great Qin is not like the era after the Song and Yuan dynasties in the later generations of the Chinese world.
It's more like the Han Dynasty.
The alien race has no right to speak in Daqin, just look at the Shanyue people in the south.
And it was still the south, which was the weakest place for the Qin people, and it was still so.
Other places can be imagined.
It was the powerful Hun barbarians in the north, and the southern Hun barbarians close to Daqin had almost become a subsidiary of Daqin.
Only the Northern Hungarians, further north, relied on the geographical space advantage of the vast desert to compete with Great Qin in the distant desert.
This is still because of the gradual decline of Great Qin's national strength, otherwise even the Northern Hungarians would have perished long ago.
In such an era, how could there be natives in the hinterland of Great Qin who dared to be so arrogant.
Not only Zhao Xin and others, but even Kong Xiao's brothers and sisters found it difficult to understand.
As a Qin person, there is a pride in his heart, how can he allow other races to be arrogant on his head.
