Chapter 209 is scheming

Finally, Wang Bing and the others walked to the gate of Pipi City, feeling very disappointed.

The red-faced Meng lord complained: "What, I thought that the capital of this ancient Shu country was very glorious, but I didn't expect that except for the city wall as high as 10 meters, the others are very ordinary, and the size of this city wall is not as good as the previous Great Zhou Town." ”

The Boundless Scholar accosted, "At least this city wall is piled up with large stones. ”

Pipi City is not big, according to the ancient algorithm is a radius of ten miles, this radius is the meaning of ten miles in length and width, not a modern circle.

Surrounded by stone walls, Pipi City has a permanent population of more than 10,000, nearly 100,000 during major festivals.

After entering the city, the boundless scholar was a little stupid and said: "It's too easy to enter the city, these soldiers at this gate only stand guard and don't collect money and check the way." ”

Wang Bing looked at the boundless scholar a little speechlessly, "Scholar, if you go out and tell those soldiers that you are a spy, make sure you can't get in." ”

The boundless scholar suddenly felt the eyes of the six pairs of children looking at the cane, "... ”

"Hehe, I'm just talking casually, don't look at me, look ahead."

Wang Bing and the seven of them walked on the street, feeling that the commercial atmosphere here was not very strong, but there were many leather shops, teahouses and taverns, and the slave market was very active.

"I'll go, how do you feel Xichuan, it's Xichuan dialect everywhere."

The boundless scholar listened to it all the way, and felt very confused, and he understood some of the words, but most of them couldn't understand it.

Jun Wuhua and Jun Wufan both listened to the cries on the street, heard the complaints of the boundless scholars, and said casually, "I will speak Xichuan dialect at the two times." ”

Wang Bing looked at these items for sale with interest, ceramics, animal prey, animal fur, woven ready-to-wear and shoes, and then it was time to eat.

Suddenly, the belly of the red-faced cute lord "cooed", touching the belly, the red-faced cute lord said:

"Do you have any money? I really want to eat something. ”

Wang Bing: "... ”

This shell money was available a few days ago, but it was all collected by Wang Yuxue and others, and it was still at the price of one gold coin, but now, it seems that it is gone.

Jun Wufan walked up to a middle-aged stall owner who was selling sheepskins, took a piece of made sheepskin, and asked, "How do you sell this sheepskin?" ”

The middle-aged stall owner looked at Wang Bing's seven people, and saw that they were all wearing hunter suits, and he felt confident that his peers had come to ask about the market.

He first stretched out two fingers, and then said, "One shell for two sheepskins." ”

Wang Bing groaned and converted, a modern sheepskin is about fifty or sixty soft sister coins, and this shell money can really be used as a hundred yuan, that is to say, the 66 big Zhou shell coins that he worked hard to open in the Huangzhou Mountains could have been exchanged for 6,600 yuan, and there were also 6 gold and 6 silver coins when exchanged for gold coins, plus the other six people, after 400 big Zhou Bei coins were sold cheaply, and more than 40,000 soft girl coins were exchanged for thousands of yuan, which of course has to be told to other friends.

A few of the boundless scholars saw Wang Bing's calculation in the group, and they were speechless, it turned out that 1 shell money is equal to 1 silver coin, and 1 pengbei is equal to 1 gold coin, I thought that this big Zhou Bei money was useless, but I didn't expect that in the matter of consumption in the secret realm, Wang Yuxue and these people took a big advantage, but they would not be short of money when they entered the secret realm during this period

The boundless scholar was a little whimsical and said, "Why don't we return the money to them." ”

Wang Bing was speechless at first, and then replied: "People will definitely be satisfied with the money, but the money will not be returned." ”

The red-faced Meng lord rubbed his chin, "In other words, Zhou Tianzi's reward is generally 'Ten Friends', that is to say, we gave Wang County four times Zhou Tianzi's standard reward, and it is a loss to think about it." ”

Hongyan Wuxian actually felt very miscalculated, but now was not the time to consider settling the account, so he instructed Jun Wufan and Jun Wuhua to say:

"The two of you are talking to people, we touch some valuable items, and when we are done, we will find a remote place, and take out two wolves to visit the palace, I think this palace should receive us, just enough to have a meal"

“ok！”

Next, Jun Wufan and the two quickly became shopping experts, but unfortunately they only watched and didn't buy it

"This tiger is good, what price?"

"Firewood? No, we don't need to, go, go down the street. ”

"Monkey wine, good, good, boss, what price?"

"Wow, what kind of fruit is this?"

After walking ten streets, Wang Bing's legs trembled.

Soon, Wang Bing and several people carried two wolves on their shoulders and walked to the gate of the palace.

After listening to Jun Wufan's introduction, the leader of the guards suddenly did not dare to slack off, and asked someone to enter the palace to spread the word.

When Turtle Ling learned that seven fellow villagers had come to visit him, he was very happy to invite Wang Bing and the seven of them into a palace.

Don't wonder why a king will invite him to come in and sit when he hears the visit of his fellow countrymen, it is because the population of the ancient Shu country at this time is less than one million people, which is equivalent to a county seat in our reality, the county magistrate has just taken the position, and he has not returned to his hometown for many years, and suddenly a few hometown people come to congratulate, basically they will not refuse.

In a side hall, Emperor Cong Lingling met with Wang Bing's seven people, and specially used Chu Yin to chat with Wang Bing, and when he learned that Wang Bing and the others had not eaten, he was very happy to prepare a banquet for Wang Bing's seven people.

Soon there were nine people sitting under the nine tables, it was Wang Bingqi and Turtle Ling and his wife.

After taking out the roast mutton from the plate and eating it, his face suddenly became a little bitter.

"Why is it a little bitter, and the fishy smell is still so strong?"

When Wang Bing and the others heard this, they ate some of them, and they were indeed a little bitter, and the turtle spirit seemed to notice the expressions of Wang Bing and the others, and said:

"We are short of salt in Shu, and the salt used for these barbecues is still transported from the passage here in Bawu, and they have been treating floods recently, and this salt has been intermittent."

Wang Bing suddenly snorted, "It's funny, it's good to have salt to eat, we just aren't used to eating this kind of salt." ”

When the turtle spirit heard this, he immediately became curious: "So, a few people who have traveled have never eaten this kind of salt?" ”

When Wang Bing heard this, he felt that he was about to be debunked if he asked, "We just brought salt from Chu State, and then picked some on the way." ”

Turtle Ling touched his beard thoughtfully, and said with a smile after a while: "It's me who is too talkative, how do you feel about traveling in this Shu country?" ”

Wang Bing replied: "After we entered the territory of Shu, I heard that you led the people to control the flood, opened up Wushan, and made the water flow from Shu to the Yangtze River. ”

Turtle Ling looked at Queen Julie affectionately, and then said modestly: "It can be completed with the support of the queen, Emperor Wang, Danhe and other ministers, and it is the result of the unity of the people of our Shu Kingdom,"

Wang Bing talked about this, and finally got to the point, so he asked: "The queen is really graceful, but the recent rumors are very unfavorable to the queen, I heard that someone said that you are from the Chu State, this is really ridiculous." ”
