Chapter 8: Less whiteheads is not a good phenomenon
The bazaars in Xianyang City are always noisy, and as the capital of the Qin State, the livelihood here is already much better than in other places.
At the very least, the common people can still have something to eat, and occasionally they can buy something with so much money left.
How much is a horse at this time? Gu Nan also has no bottom, in the case of inconvenient transportation in ancient times, the price of a horse is equivalent to a modern car. Among them, the price of good and bad horses also varies greatly. With these five dollars in Gu Nan's arms, she doesn't know what kind of money she can buy.
Thinking of this, she regretted a little that she didn't bring out the coachman from Bai Qina, so that she would not be deceived at least.
Still dressed as a man, with the five big coins on his waist, Gu Nan looked around, speaking of which, although he has lived in this place for more than three months, he has really not had a good walk around this city. On weekdays, I practiced martial arts and soldiers in Wu'anjun's mansion all day long, and I almost forgot about the outside scene.
There are many people on the street, and there are hawkers on both sides, and it is a rare downtown during the Warring States period. Gu Nan, who had never been in this Xianyang City, was interested, walked and stopped, looked east and west, walked for half an hour, and was stunned and almost forgot about buying a horse.
Before I knew it, it was already around two o'clock in the afternoon.
"Boss, let's have a cooker." Gu Nan stood in front of a cooking cake stall, handed over a ring coin, grabbed a cooking cake and took a bite. She usually eats very little when she exercises in the morning, and she can't eat anything just after practicing at noon. By this time, I was already hungry.
The pancakes are freshly baked, a little hot, and have a unique taste of charcoal, which is not delicious, but it is very filling for a hungry person.
The money to buy cooking cakes is her monthly money, and to put it bluntly, it should be something like pocket money. The monthly money is not much, but it is enough to eat and drink simply.
"Click, click."
Gu Nan bit the cooking cake and lazily looked at the blue sky that was different from the later generations.
Coincidentally, she lived a good life in this troubled world. At least food and clothing are worry-free.
To be honest, she was still very grateful to Bai Qi's family, not only because they took her in, but also from Bai Qi's attitude, Gu Nan really felt that they regarded her as a family and their own people.
Because only one family will not look at you differently and will not treat you specially. I won't be particularly nice to you, but I will never treat you badly. is to treat you as an ordinary member, but such an environment is something that Gu Nan, an orphan, has never experienced.
In fact, she knew that Bai Qi taught herself to have his own thoughts and desires. She can often see Bai Qi staring at one place in a daze, that look, not like the Warring States God of Killing, but like an ordinary old man, worried about things.
She didn't know what it was, and she wouldn't ask.
She only knew that one day Bai Qi would tell her about it, and she would do her best to complete it without any reason.
Even if it's her reward.
"Click." After the last bite of the cookcake, Gu Nan clapped his hands and prepared to buy a horse.
But suddenly he felt a hand on his waist climb up.
In an instant, she figured out what was going on, and smiled bitterly on her face, it was really karma, she was still stealing others a few months ago, and this time it was her turn to be stolen.
"Smack."
After practicing martial arts for three months, her shooting speed, strength, and reaction have been greatly improved.
Just a thought, already caught the thief's hand.
"Yes, it's really a good reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao..." I was stealing from others a few days ago, and now it's my turn.
Turning his head depressedly, Gu Nan was stunned.
Standing behind her was an unkempt boy, probably eight or nine years old.
This kid has an impressive place, but there is no timidity in his eyes, it is a very different kind of look, calm and stubborn.
Seeing that Gu Nan had already grabbed his hand, he bit his lip: "What do you want, whatever you want." ”
Well, this guy reacts more like an adult than a child.
···
It's really not a cute little ghost.
Gu Nan pursed his lips unhappily and glanced at the boy.
After hesitating for a moment, he took out a dozen coins from his bosom and put them in the little boy's hand, then let go of his hand. Said lightly: "Go buy something to eat yourself." ”
Now, the boy froze.
Silently looking at the coins in his hand, he was speechless.
"There's no more." Gu Nan didn't have much money in his own hands, and the rest was the money to buy horses.
“···” The boy suddenly asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Hmm." After a pause, Gu Nan said, "Gu Nan." ”
"My name is Wei Zhuang, and I will definitely pay you back this money in the future." The boy nodded firmly, and bowed.
"It's up to you." didn't hear the young man's name clearly, waved his hand, and Gu Nan left the stall.
Walking on the street, Gu Nan looked around silently, she knew why three months ago, Bai Qi would give her a bite to eat.
In this troubled world, the wrong people are never these people, let alone those children living on the streets.
But they are the ones who are homeless, they are the ones who are hungry, and they are the only ones who suffer.
······
Forget it, I can't change anything, can I?
Gu Nan shook his head and shook off those unrealistic thoughts. She is not a savior, nor is she a saint, and she does not have such a great heart to save the suffering.
For her, making a little money and being a landlord may be a good life goal.
"Your Excellency just let that child go, aren't you afraid that he will return to his old business and go down the wrong path?"
A voice suddenly came from behind Gu Nan, the voice was not heavy, but it was thick and clear, and it could be heard that this person had enough qi and blood, it should be a man in his twenties and thirties.
Looking back, it was. He was about 20 years old, and he was wearing an official robe. Looks like a career man.
It should be said that it is worthy of Xianyang City, it is so easy to meet this official.
Gu Nan glanced at him and replied lightly: "Oh, then do you have any high opinions?" ”
Wang Jian himself was just wandering in the bazaar, but from a distance he saw a little boy standing behind a "teenager" with a petty theft.
was about to step forward to stop it, but the little boy had already been caught by the "boy".
thought that the boy would take the boy to the government, but who expected that the boy gave the boy a string of copper coins, so he left by himself.
Only then did he step forward and stop the "boy" to ask.
You must know that since the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the laws of the Qin State can be said to be very strict, and if the "juvenile" acts like this, if it is known, it is impossible to be sentenced to the same crime.
The "boy" was stopped by him and turned around.
And the moment the other party turned around, Wang Jian was stupidly stunned.
