Chapter 26 Migrant Workers in the City

The tall descendant is Wang Ran, that day he said goodbye to everyone, all the way to the east over the mountains and mountains for two days before finding a village, to the village people inquired, only to know that he has arrived in Jianzhou, from Chengdu Mansion is the original farther away.

So ask the villagers for a clear direction, along the official road and walk north for five days, only to arrive at the territory of Chengdu Prefecture, to the outside of the city is already dark, then in the nearby forest to rest for a night, until today Yin is a moment of the city gate opened, only to step on the Wanli Bridge, into the Jinguan City.

Wang Ran, who entered the city, faced the prosperous scene in front of him, and couldn't help but be stunned, only to see that the buildings on the street were all Zhu Yongbi tiles and Danying carved trees, and the scales were arranged in rows, stretching out for a few miles.

While walking and looking, only to find that most of these buildings are not the residences of dignitaries, but all kinds of shops, only to see all kinds of signboards standing in front of these buildings, there are erect a wooden sign on the book "Five Labor and Seven Injuries Conditioning Department", "Cure Wine Injuries True Prescription Collection Incense Pills", "Dali Chinese Pill Doctor Stomach Cold" and other words of the pharmacy, there are hotels with plaques such as "Long Residence Wang Yuan's Waijia", "Zhengdian", "Rest Shop", "Sun Erniang's House", etc., there is a vertical sign next to the door that reads "Zhangjiashu Jinpu", "Guanzhong Neiliansheng", "Li Ji Qitou Shop". The cloth shoes and clothing store, more in the door of the Cai Lou, Huan Men of the wine shop teahouse, a lot of things, countless.

Wang Ran walked around for a while, and saw that most of these shops were still closed, except for one type of shop, that is, a food shop with the word "food" in front of the door.

These shops are not big, most of them are sandwiched in front of the street corners and alleys, and there are usually only four or five tables in the shops, and the furnishings are quite simple, but at this time they are all overcrowded, and all kinds of people come in and out, and it is very lively.

I saw that the pot on the stove in the store was steaming, all kinds of porridge, rice and snacks, meat and vegetarian snacks were placed on the table next to the pot, and the chef next to him kept turning over the case and rolling the noodles, and there was a crackling sound, as well as the loud shouting of the little two in the hall, looking at these noisy fireworks in the world, Wang Ran's stomach rumbled.

Wang Ran then remembered that he hadn't eaten a good meal for a long time, since the accident in the grass house, he either slept in the open every day, or ate some dry cakes to satisfy his hunger, even if he occasionally sat down with Li Shun and Wang Xiaobo to eat, he also tasted like chewing wax because of his heavy thoughts.

At this time, these simple snacks in the food shop make me salivate a little bit, which is really strange.

Seeing that Xiao Er in the restaurant in front of him served two bowls of steaming soup cakes to a table of guests, and then politely instructed that it should be something like being careful of scalding, Wang Ran smiled with relief, maybe it was actually the strong human touch in the small shop that attracted him.

So Wang Ran walked into this food shop, ordered a meal, and after a while, Xiao Er put a bowl of vegetarian soup cakes and a plate of side dishes in front of him, and the steaming heat came to the surface, but Wang Ran's eyes suddenly turned red, Master, Sister Xiaocui, Ran'er misses you so much!

After being stunned for a while, Wang Ran wiped his eyes, and then he feasted.

After eating, I walked out of the small shop, only to see that the pedestrians on the street gradually increased, and most of the shops on the street also unloaded the row of doors and started to open.

Asking the passers-by about the location of the Bomai Division, Wang Ran walked to the north, walked for about two quarters of an hour, found the south gate of Zicheng, and arrived at the Jinshui River through the city gate.

The streets on both sides of the river bank are paved with blue bricks, the streets are neat and elegant, walking on them is so down-to-earth, Wang Ran can't help but think of the bluestone street in Hengqu Town.

The street houses are quite different from the Zhu Pavilion Qinglou in the outer city, all of which are whitewashed tiles, which extend out in a patchwork manner, like a picture scroll unfolding.

Wang Ran gathered his appreciative eyes, fixed his mind, told himself that he still had something to do, and continued to walk north along the riverbank, walking for about half an hour, and finally found his target - "Xichuan Lubo Buying Division".

I saw that the pair of Zhu Men under the high tile eaves of the Bo Mai Si Ya were closed, and the bluestone Danqi was paved in front of the door, and there were two huge stone lions on both sides of the Danqi, and the end was extraordinary.

But this Bomai Si Ya is not the most magnificent on this Yaqian Street, because next to it is Chengdu's largest official office - Xichuan Road Transit Envoy Si Ya, which is really called a Hongtu Huafu and thousands of weather.

Wang Ran observed for a while, turned his head and saw that there were also many taverns on the other side of Yaqian Street, so he had a plan in his heart, and raised his feet and walked towards the largest of them.

As soon as I entered this hotel called Huajin Building, I immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, "Guest officer, you are early, are you one?" Eat or drink tea? ”

Wang Ran, who received such a warm reception for the first time, couldn't help but be stunned, and said in his heart that the service in this big place was good, and even the one who ran the hall was much more polite than the Qibaolou.

Wang Ran's expression was dazed, and he arched his hand and said: "Hello little second brother, I'm not here to play the sharp, may I ask if your store is still recruiting?" I want to work here. ”

The little second instantly smiled attentively, changed to a disgusted expression and said, "Is it the first time you have entered the city?" Find a job and go to the dental shop, who will take care of you here. ”

Wang Ran was stunned for a moment, tooth shop? Do you have to go through a tooth shop to find a small worker in this restaurant? There are many rules in big places. Wang Ran wanted to ask where there was a tooth shop near this little er, but who knew that this little er had already put on a sneer and went to receive a pair of well-dressed sons next to him, so he had to give up.

After going out of Huajin Building, he asked a famous passer-by about the location of the nearest dental shop, and Wang Ran rushed over, but when he arrived at the door, he saw that the door of the dental shop was closed, so Wang Ran had to look elsewhere.

I walked around for a while, found a total of five tooth shops, but none of them were open, and asked passers-by about it, only to know that today was Tanabata, and in addition to food and clothing in the city, other businesses were closed for the holidays.

Wang Ran scratched his head and sighed, so he had to give up and prepare to come back tomorrow.

Since you can't do the right thing, let's let go of your mind and take a good look around this Jinguan City, and you can also prepare for future actions, so Wang Ran followed the weaving crowd and went to the garden to enjoy the scenery.

Visiting Jinjiang, Maha Pond, Jiangdu Pond, enjoying the West Garden, Zhang Garden, Hejiang Garden, Biji Fang, visiting Qingyang Palace, Wuhou Temple, Haiyun Temple, Wang Ran lingered in this Jinguan City with scenery everywhere for a whole day, it was really dizzying and eye-opening.

Swimming to near dusk, I heard that the night market near Daci Temple was the best in Chengdu, and Wang Ran rushed over non-stop.

After strolling around the market near Daci Temple for a while, and seeing a hotel on the street, Wang Ran wanted to go over to stay overnight, ready to put down his burden and come out to find some food.

"Three hundred dollars a night? That's too expensive, right? Wang Ran looked at the owner of the inn named Tian Sanjia in front of him and exclaimed, profiteer, it must be a profiteer!

"Don't be too expensive, don't look at what day it is, the nearby ten miles and eight towns are coming into the city to make a fuss Tanabata, the hotel rooms are naturally in demand, I only have the last room left for three hundred yuan a night, and it is set in two days, after this village does not have this store, if you want to go to another house, I estimate that even if you pay six hundred yuan, I will not find a room." Mimi, the red-faced boss, explained unhurriedly with his mung bean-sized eyes.

Wang Ran checked the broken silver in his hand, about four yuan, which was enough for two nights, but this was his last money, if the tooth shop was not open tomorrow, what would he eat and sleep in the future. I had to give up the idea of staying in a hotel and turned around and left the hotel.

"The guest officer no longer thinks about it? The gates are closing, and it's too late to get out of the city. If you want to spend the night on the roadside or the riverside, I advise you to dispel this idea, although there is a lively night market outside today, but in the second half of the night there are still officials patrolling the streets, and those who sleep on the street will be arrested. The boss kindly reminded.

Wang Ran was almost moved, but he gritted his teeth and continued to leave, and then went to other places to inquire, maybe there was a cheaper hotel.

Wang Ran went out of Tian San's house, looking for a hotel along the street, but accidentally found a tooth shop that was still open, and was overjoyed, but saw a short and thin middle-aged man walking out of the shop, turned around and locked the door, Wang Ran hurriedly ran forward to stop the man.
