"Brother Jin, stop the carriage and horses, I'll walk in, right?"

Seeing that he was about to approach the bustling market, Zhao Zheng deliberately asked Hawking to stop the carriage, and the two walked in, so that they could enjoy the market style in the most prosperous part of the western capital.

"That's very good."

Hawking happily praised, and then got off the car together, ordered the imperial slave to wait here, only one or two attendants, and the two walked into the most prosperous market in the Xijing City - Yonghe Fang.

Ban's most famous Banjude roast chicken is located in the core of this Yonghe Fang.

"I see that this market is still quite lively, and it is full of pedestrians...... That Dali and Daxing, is it really more than several times richer than that? ”

The two of them have been playing like this for a long time, but they have never gone to the core area, Zhao Zheng can't help but be a little strange, are Dali and Daxing really as exaggerated as Hawking said?

Of course, no matter how prosperous the ancient commercial district is, it is not worth mentioning compared to the modern commercial square.

But after all, subject to the restrictions of the times, the ancient market that Zhao Zheng understood was probably nothing more than that, right?

"Brother Ba is wrong, I'm afraid it's more than a few times, more than ten times!"

When Zhao Zheng heard this, he suddenly looked at Hawking in disbelief, and his expression was quite disbelieving.

If you want to say that the difference is several times, it doesn't matter, but the difference is more than ten times...... That's an exaggeration!

"Brother Ba, don't believe it, my Huo family has been in business for a hundred years, and its merchants have traveled all over the world and Kyushu, and I still know about the economic and trade affairs of these countries."

Hawking smiled bitterly, he was familiar with the Huo family's firm, and naturally knew since he was a child that when it came to commerce alone, the already poor and weak cadres were far behind other countries.

"Not to mention anything else, just in terms of the size of this city, there are only two major markets in the north and south of this Xijing City, and there is only one Qianyi Fang in Yiwu City, which is more than twice as large as this Yonghe Fang!"

"More than twice as much? That's a tenfold ......."

Zhao Zheng was puzzled, even if there was more than twice as much as Yonghefang, how could it not be more than ten times, right?

"Brother Ba is not in a hurry, Yiwu City is built in imitation of gossip, according to the hexagram is divided into eight major urban areas, and there are eight major markets, this Qianyi Fang is just one of the eight markets, not the largest market, the largest Kunyi Fang is more than three times the ......"

In an instant, Zhao Zheng was silent.

For the first time, from the most intuitive figures, he deeply realized the huge gap between countries like a chasm......

……

'Banjude Roast Chicken'

Zhao Zheng looked up at the gilded plaque hanging high, and the huge characters of the dragon and the phoenix danced, all of which were from the hands of famous artists.

He and Hawking took their entourage and walked all the way, and finally came to the downstairs of the century-old 'Banjude Roast Chicken' as they wished.

"Brother Jin, please."

"Brother Ba, please ......"

The two exchanged politeness, and then Zhao Zheng went first, Hawking followed, the two attendants followed, and the group entered the store.

"Two masters, please come here~"

Xiao Er, who was waiting at the door, was obviously a little clever ghost, and when he saw the temperament of the two of them, he knew that they must be the sons of the family, so he hurriedly and eagerly greeted the two of them, and waited in the elegant seat upstairs.

"The two masters are really blessed people, the last elegant seat is left in our store, and it happened to be met by the master, isn't this the will of heaven for the two masters?"

Xiao Er, who was bowing down, led the way in front of him while laughing respectfully.

"You little two! It's kind of talking, come, take it! Master rewards you! ”

Hawking smiled and pointed at him, then threw a dime of broken silver.

"Thank you, sir, for the reward! Thank you for the reward! ”

Xiao Er was even more happy when he got the reward, and he was about to touch the ground.

"Alright, lead the way."

Zhao Zheng urged, looking at this scene full of guests, he was also in a good mood, after all, it was his own industry.

"Okay~! Two VIPs upstairs~"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and were about to move upstairs, but they suddenly heard a loud shout from outside the door!

"Little two! Get out of here! Sort out the best seats in your house for my son-in-law! ”

When Xiao Er heard this, he was stunned on the spot.

"Ouch! How is this master! Two masters, please wait a moment! The little ones go and go back! ”

After speaking, he confessed his guilt and left in a panic.

Zhao Zheng couldn't help but be interested when he saw this, the two glanced at each other, and urged Hawking to go together.

"Brother Jin, it seems that something interesting is going to happen, you and I should go and join in the fun!"

Hawking didn't want to cause trouble, but when he saw that His Royal Highness was obviously interested, he could only reluctantly accompany him.

At the same time, he didn't forget to give the two entourages a look, signaling the two of them to be vigilant, and they must protect His Highness!

"What's the situation? Is the rhythm of slapping in the face in Pulp Fiction? ”

Zhao Zheng speculated excitedly, and there was some anticipation in his heart.

Listening to the shout of the person just now, it is obvious that the person who came is not good, and when there is only one elegant seat left, this group of people must be trying to rob their own elegant seat!

Ha ha!

This is obviously the slap in the face in those bad novels!

I didn't expect this kind of vulgar episode to happen to me Zhao Zheng one day?

That's cool, isn't it?

If you want to talk about gentleness, I, Zhao Zheng, am the first gentleman of today's cadres!!

Who can be more awesome than their emperor father?

Pretend to be forced to pretend to be on your master and me, then you have to think you're unlucky haha!

I really hope you don't wait too soon, otherwise it will be too boring......

Thinking like this in his heart, Zhao Zheng had already hurried to the door, only to see that the big man with a loud voice just now was pushing Xiao Er, and he opened his mouth to scold in an unkind tone.

"What? The last room has been decided? Bullshit thing! It's a no-brainer! Do you know who my son-in-law is? Dare to rob my son-in-law's seat?! ”

As he spoke, he kept looking around, as if he wanted to find the guy who dared to grab a seat with their son-in-law!

"Why don't you get out of here? Yes? Which one doesn't have long eyes? Dare to rob my son-in-law's seat?! ”

"What a dog who doesn't know how to count!"

Suddenly, a cold snort came, but the noisy door suddenly fell silent, and everyone followed the reputation, but found that it was a young boy.

"Oh? In front of my son-in-law, I am naturally a dog-like thing! But who are you, dare to report your name! ”

Although this big man acted rudely, it didn't mean that he was a fool, he looked at the temperament of this little boy's dress, coupled with the tone of his voice, he naturally knew that he must be a son of a family, and this tone immediately softened.

Even if he was scolded by a dog, he was not annoyed at all, but found out the other party's origin for his son-in-law.

"Hehe, who am I? It's just a short-sighted thing like you...... Also worthy of knowing the name and surname of this son? ”

Zhao Zheng ridiculed in public without mercy in full view.

"This ......"

Unexpectedly, the harder Zhao Zheng's tone became, the more agitated the big man became, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

"This brother, I don't know my Ruyang Huang family...... Are you qualified to know your last name? ”

At this moment, a handsome boy walked out from behind the big man, gently shaking the folding fan with a playful expression.

And as soon as the 'Ruyang Huang Clan' in his mouth came out, everyone changed color in unison, and even Hawking, who was originally interested and was watching the play, couldn't help but change his complexion!

"Ruyang Huang Clan? What's that? ”

Zhao Zheng raised his eyebrows, and his tone was still ruthless.

"Bold!"

"Brother can't!"

The Huang son's color changed, and Hawking hurriedly spoke up behind him, hoping to calm things down.

"Huh...... Good! I, Huang Liang, want to see what family and what clan it is? Dare to treat me Ruyang Huang as nothing?! ”

Huang Liang folded the folding fan fiercely, slapped it in his palm with a 'snap', squinted his eyes slightly and laughed coldly.

"Oh? Listen up! I am Hejian Ji, surnamed Ji! ”

After saying that, he still didn't feel enjoyable enough, and immediately threw down the next sentence.

"Of course...... You can also call me Baba! ”

……

"During the Shenwu period of the Great Qian, because the remnants of Qi and Yan had not been extinguished for a long time, the Taiji Holy Emperor set up the East Investigation Factory (referred to as the East Factory), which was in charge of privileged supervision and espionage assassination.

The special Governor of the Qincha Dongchang Official School Eunuch (referred to as the Governor of Dongchang) has the privilege of arresting his subjects at will, acting arrogantly, and using torture so fiercely that the government and the opposition will change color when they hear it!

Everywhere Dongchang went, corpses were everywhere, unjust cases were like snow, and the people were full of complaints, especially the children of eunuchs!

However, when it comes to Dongchang, the family is ruined at every turn, the head of the light rut falls to the ground, the important ministers of the court are afraid of catching fire, and the century-old family has no idea how to protect themselves, and no one dares to take its edge, so that the world has been suffering for a long time!

Until the fifth year of Shenwu, suddenly a strange hero Ji Ba was born, not afraid of the children of eunuchs, not afraid of the power of Dongchang, stepped forward, righteous and awe-inspiring, and had nothing to do about it!

All the children of eunuchs are afraid of it, and they are frightened when they hear it!

Therefore, the common people respect him as 'Baba', which causes the children of eunuchs to hear about the tyrant's color! ”
