Unlike traveling in the wilderness, where you can occasionally meet a few farmers on the side of the road or in a wheat field,

Slowly approaching the entrance of the city, there are gradually more people nearby,

Many merchants and travelers who also drove the carriages, the guards and soldiers who were in charge of registration and inventory, and the noisy crowd after a long absence, there was a lively atmosphere that was different from the fields and only belonged to the city.

"Huh... It's a big city. ”

In the bustle of the entrance, he drove the carriage into the city, and looked at the houses in surprise at a glance, and on the quite spacious streets, there were people coming and going under the sun.

Although it is not as large as Milan, it is quite a size compared to the small towns they have passed through before.

Continuing the journey of the two men in the carriage, this time they came to a new city.

"Fang Ran, where are we going now?"

Leaving Milan and never passing through such a big place again, Ling tugged at the corner of Fang Ran's clothes with a little girl's bewilderment.

"As a rule, let's go find a place to live first and leave the horses in their care,"

Answering with a chuckle, Fang Ran glanced at the time it was already noon, then lowered his head and winked at Ling:

"Then let's take a stroll around here this afternoon, and we'll go back tomorrow to inquire about the news, how about it?"

"yes, okay."

Listening to the girl's tender voice and crisp consent, the young man raised the reins slightly, and the carriage walked into the city streets.

"Let's go!"

...

It is bordered by the Alps to the north, the economic city of Milan to the west, the water city of Venice to the east, and the capital Rome to the south.

Located in the middle of the Po River Plain, where the long-standing train railway stops,

With a long history and numerous churches, it is one of the most important hubs in Italy.

This is the city that the two of them passed through this time,

- Verona.

It didn't take much time to find an inn that could take care of the horses, so I grabbed a random man on the road and threw him a lira coin.

With Ling in charge of the conversation, Fang Ran quickly found the best hotel in the city.

Then, after smashing a bag of silver coins directly on the counter, he booked the most expensive room here, and got the superintendent nodding and assurances that he would take care of the horses.

As for the carriage, he put it directly into the black box.

"Alright, let's go, Ling."

Although there is no almighty Sharon, but with the power of money to easily and conveniently get everything done,

Fang Ran looked at the delicate girl holding his hand and chuckled.

"Where are you going?"

There was warmth and reassurance from the palm of the hand she was pulling, and Ling raised her big light golden eyes and asked.

"Of course, I'm going to the liveliest place here."

"But do you know the way?"

Hearing such an answer, Ling had some strange doubts, and then she snorted when she saw Fang Ran's mysterious confidence.

"Hmph, don't underestimate the wisdom of future people."

...

Founded in the first century B.C., the city has a history of 2,000 years, and has ruled by names such as Ancient Rome, the House of Scalizzi, and the Republic of Venice.

Bearing the pivotal position of geographical transportation, it is a battleground for soldiers in every era.

The same is true of this era.

But perhaps because of this,

It brought trade, it brought prosperity, it brought more people here...

Vanilla Square.

This public place, which was used for arbitration and political rally by citizens in Roman times, is surrounded by buildings from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance.

Those flashy pattern walls, the stone railing on the roof of the building stands the kind of very European style character sculptures,

It's amazing to think that coming back a hundred years from now will still be like this.

However, this famous spot is still a market, and along the edge of the square, there are various sun-shaded stalls rented by merchants, selling fruits, vegetables and wines that are abundant here.

At the door of the store, large boxes of goods were loaded onto horse-drawn carriages and sent to the station to follow the train to various places.

Although it is far from the modern era, it belongs to the atmosphere and liveliness of such an old era, and it is still permeated in people's greetings.

"Eh, Ling! Look, look! The fountain in the middle is called 'The Lover of Verona', built in the 14th century! ”

The sun was shining, walking in the crowd, Fang Ran pointed to a small fountain in front of him, and his eyes eagerly introduced to Ling,

"14th century? Was it a long time ago? ”

And looking at Fang Ran's energetic appearance, and recording the surrounding crowd scenery from time to time, Ling asked curiously,

She had already discovered that it was the same when she was in Milan, and contrary to her own interest in the future, Fang Ran was always very enthusiastic about these things.

"Well, it's 1916, which is the 20th century, and the 14th century is about 600 years ago."

Hearing Fang Ran's explanation, this time, Ling also looked at the fountain and let out a small exclamation.

"Eh.... A fountain from 600 years ago..."

"Come, Ling, this is for you, let's take a picture."

I took out a small parasol that matched my skirt and started the usual activities of the trip with the camera.

Freeze the scene of the journey again, take the girl's hand again, and look at the various stalls, shops and restaurants nearby,

There is a selection of cheeses, fresh milk, and pasta with a sign painted with tomato sauce.

"Ling, if you have anything you want to eat, let's go buy it."

"Huh? If you want to buy these things, there will definitely be no delicious food that you can conjure. ”

Ling, who had passed through many places on the journey, already knew this, looked up at him and tried to remind,

But I only saw Fang Ran smile happily at himself, raising his eyebrows:

"It's not about the taste but about the fun, and if you go back a hundred years ago, you'll be curious about what the food tasted like at that time."

"So let's go! Don't hesitate! Buy whatever you like! ”

Listening to Fang Ran's righteous words, Ling, who had not yet realized that he had been instilled with a strange view of consumption, finally took his hand ignorantly and walked through the bazaar.

You idiot...

...

Verona's afternoon sun is clear, and even the houses with beige old walls and red brick roofs, those buildings with a long history,

All of them become brightly colored under the clear sky, and the vast scenery from above is a true picture of the picturesque European town.

By the way, speaking of historical buildings...

There is an amphitheater built in ancient Rome, and it is second only to Rome in size.

During the summer months, major operas are staged almost every day.

Before entering the city, he saw the building through the night crow's vision, and after sweeping the shops near the bazaar,

Fang Ran rushed into this 'theater' with Ling.
