Chapter 63: The Turmoil (2nd Watch)
"This is the ...... of the hot spring town," Ali got out of the carriage and looked at the town in front of him. It is obviously a cold winter day that is not suitable for travel, but the town is full of cars and pedestrians. On the streets where countless lights are intertwined, this moment gives people a feeling of dispelling the warmth of the winter cold.
"It really hasn't changed at all here." , Mo glanced at the surrounding scene and said slowly.
Huiyin, who was on the side, looked at Mo and asked, "Have you been here?" ”
"Of course...... Otherwise, how do you think I got to know the 'master's house' here? ”
"The master?" , Huiyin noticed the peculiarity in the ink words, tilted her head, and asked suspiciously: "You mean that the person who invited you here this time is in charge of this town?" ”
Mo's eyes closed slightly, and he said in a somewhat strange tone: "Well, it's not wrong for you to say that." In a sense, the other party can indeed be regarded as the manager of this place. ”
"Interesting...... Now I'm a little curious about the 'acquaintance' who invited you. ”
"Don't worry, you'll be able to see him in person soon. I don't think he will let you down. Ah, it seems that the man who greeted us came. Mo shook his head, and quickly turned his gaze to one place.
Soon, several people dressed in blue walked out of the street, stepped forward, bowed to Mo and said, "Your Highness Mo, we are late to greet you, and I hope you will forgive me." ”
Mo waved his hand, "No, we arrived a lot earlier than the agreed time. Thank you very much for the kind invitation from your host. ”
"Yes!" , These few people dressed in blue hurriedly bowed down, and then pointed to the frame that had been prepared on the side and said: "Your Highness, we have prepared the car, and please move down and rest for a while." ”
Huiyin on the side squinted at these blue-clothed servants, and an inexplicable look flashed in her eyes.
Mo shook his head and motioned for Huiyin and Ali to go up together. When the three of them sat together in the luxuriously decorated car. The servants quickly divided their parts, one driving, one guiding the crow to where the carriage could be kept, and a few walking in front of the carriage to clear the way.
"Your Highness, this way we will pass through the busiest streets of this town. You and the two ladies can enjoy our scenery along the way. The servant who was driving the car turned around and said respectfully
"Hmm." Ink nodded.
Ali, on the other hand, touched the huge white plush that was covered under him, and then looked up at the canopy above his head and the many decorations on the frame. Not only is it a little smacking in my heart, but this is definitely expensive. Even if his own family used to, it is estimated that his father was the only one who could travel on such a frame.
And Hui Yin noticed her movements. also looked at the white plush underneath, and then spoke: "This blanket, looking at the material, is it made of the fur sewing and weaving of the white fox in the snow mountain?" ”
The servant driving in front of him paused, then turned his head and smiled: "Miss is really as wise as a torch." ”
This...... This one...... It's actually ......
After hearing this, Ah Li couldn't help but open his mouth slightly. The fur of the white fox in the snowy mountains, what a rare thing. Ordinary ladies can't find a piece. And now this is so extravagant that it is directly used to cover the entire frame?
Ah Li completely retracted the preface, the blanket under her alone was enough to compare her father's car, not to mention anything else. The difference between the two is incomparable.
Feeling the soft and comfortable touch under him, Ah Li finally couldn't help but whisper: "Your Highness Mo, is that friend of yours from that great family?" ”
"The Great Family?" , Mo tilted his head, "If you have to say it, it can indeed be regarded as a 'great family'." Well, you actually want to ask him if he is a rich man. But it's also true, his wealth is enough to attract the attention of the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that the rich are rivaling the country. ”
Mo's straightforward answer directly made Ah Li blush, and he was completely speechless at all.
And the driver who drove in front also seemed to hear the conversation here, and said, "Your Highness Mo, you have a good reputation. We only have a small amount of money, and we really don't deserve such a reputation. ”
Mo shook his head, no longer dwelling on the question. For him, ordinary wealth in the world is meaningless. As long as he wants, those so-called rare treasures are just a matter of command. As long as he shows such a will, there will naturally be countless people who want to please him to send it in person.
But even if there is really a wealth that rivals the wealth of the country. For him now, these yellow and white things are not much different from the stones on the side of the road.
"Huh? What's going on there? At this time, Ah Li, who was looking around, suddenly spoke up.
And Mo's eyes also followed, and he saw that not far in front of the street, there seemed to be some commotion. A young man was being beaten up by several other strong men. And while fighting, he also cursed some swear words such as, 'mongrel', 'monster', 'cheap' and so on.
Most of the people nearby glanced at it and left indifferently. It seems to have become commonplace.
Of course, such boring trivial things are generally too lazy to pay attention to, and the left and right are just some bullying and brawls and other things. Not to mention this era, even the era of my previous life will inevitably appear. It's just a matter of how much.
But the other person sitting next to him couldn't stand this scene anymore, and stood up directly and scolded loudly: "What are you doing! Don't stop yet! ”
When a strong man who was beating heard this, he didn't raise his head, and scolded directly: "Where are the stinky girls, dare to care about our ......"
But before he could finish shouting, he felt two terrifying eyes fall on him, making him break out in a cold sweat and stop the rest of his words. And at this time, he finally saw the luxurious frame in front of him, and the people on the frame.
Suddenly, his face turned pale. The few people sitting on the frame in front of him are obviously very prominent 'nobles'. It's not something that a flat-headed person like him, who only has a slight status in this town, can offend. And I didn't see who the shouter was just now, so I just scolded him......
Escape! He saw the scene in front of him clearly and came to this conclusion in an instant.
If you offend the 'nobles', no matter whether you are justified or unreasonable, you will definitely not end well! But looking at the other party's appearance now, it should be just an alien 'noble'. Presumably just stay here for a few days and then leave. As long as you hide for a few days, you'll be fine......
However, as soon as his thoughts arose, he declared bankrupt. Because......
"Presumptuous!" , The blue-clothed servant driving the frame immediately shouted angrily after the other party scolded. The other blue-clothed servants who were guarding the frame rushed forward directly, and in three or two strokes, they grabbed the angry man and pushed him to the ground.
And the other accomplices of the man hurriedly dodged, not to mention stepping forward to help, they even directly pushed away the passers-by on the side and fled. Although they were not the ones who collided with the 'nobles', what if they were implicated as accomplices.
In this era, the strictness of class is not a joke, and they dare not bet on the hearts and minds of those noble lords.
"Huh? Ay? What do you do? And Ali was a little stunned when he looked at the scene in front of him. That's not quite right.
…… To be continued......
(ps: Embarrassing, the second watch actually dragged on until 1 o'clock.) Ahem, the preview of the next chapter, hot spring benefits or something...... Is there any? Yes, of course...... No comment! Hahahaha!! )
