"Huh!!"

Ling'er stuck out her tongue at Xu Chuan before she opened her mouth and whispered: "Originally, yes, it must be a stubborn child, everyone lined up to come in in order, and he walked in directly, and when you saw the woman who didn't have a front desk, she also went up directly with her face, and it wasn't that she couldn't get a good impression." ”

Xu Chuan knew that if she let this girl talk nonsense again, it was estimated that she was thrown out by the crowd here before she saw the city lord, and hurriedly knocked on Ling'er's head and said: "Hurry up and eat, when we are full, we have to find a place to stay for one night, and you better not talk when you see the city lord tomorrow!"

When Xu Chuan and the two went to pay the bill after they were full, they found that they had eaten four gold in this meal, which was almost comparable to the day's expenses of the Zhenguo Mansion, but the dishes here were indeed ingenious, and the wine was also very smooth, which made Xu Chuan feel worth the money.

After the two walked out of the restaurant, they drove the carriage towards the direction of the city lord's mansion again, along the way the two were still looking for an inn to live in at night, but the two of them walked to the front of the city lord's mansion and passed through seven or eight inns, all the inns were all full, even the firewood room was not left, because the tax in the city was very low, people moved the goods from far away places to sell here, and they must not be able to go back that night, they could only rest for one night.

The carriage slowly stopped on the side of the gate of the city lord's mansion, Xu Chuan had an indescribable feeling, if the city lord was disturbed in the middle of the night, then the matter of tomorrow's negotiation was estimated to be in vain, if it was himself, he could still stay in the carriage for a night, but now there is another Ling'er here.

"Who are you!!"

Just as Xu Chuan was thinking about whether to visit the city lord in advance, a group of guards passed by the carriage, and when they saw the two sitting in the carriage in a daze, the guards walked towards the carriage and asked.

Xu Chuan said politely: "Our grandfather and granddaughter have just come to the city, and the inn is full, I really don't know where to go!"

"Oh, so you see that you are not poor people who come in with the carriage, and since you have no place to go, you can go to the restaurant in the city to drink and spend the night, at least it is open all day, and there are few customers there at night, and it is quiet, and you can drink while waiting for the dawn. ”

After hearing the guard's words, Xu Chuan stretched out his hand to pat his head, and said: "Look at my memory, it's not as safe as the restaurant outside, thank you for informing!" After finishing speaking, Xu Chuan drove the carriage back in the direction of the Dionysian Temple again.

After the two returned to the restaurant, Xu Chuan simply ordered two hard dishes and a few pots of wine, found a table by the window and sat down.

The girl in front of the counter was nowhere to be seen, only to see that it was now being watched by the maid who served the food before, Xu Chuan sat down and drank a few sips of wine, Ling'er ran towards the front desk again, Xu Chuan thought that Ling'er wanted something to eat and ignored it.

It didn't take long for Ling'er to walk back to the table with two jugs of wine, and the jugs were placed on the table and said, "Grandpa, we are staying on the street all night, how can we do it if we don't drink something good, let's try this Sanjin wine!!"

"What??three gold??"

Xu Chuan was shocked when he heard Ling'er's words, Sanjin's wine, there is indeed a wine called Sunset Su written on the front desk, and the signboard hanging on it is Sanjin, and he is reluctant to order it, but he didn't expect this girl to order two pots, but all the expenses of this envoy to the city were contracted by His Majesty, so he simply drank it!

"Grandpa, you said that the wine in this shop is really ridiculously expensive, why are so many people coming here to eat and drink during the day, are they really rich?" Ling'er asked her grandfather while drinking.

"Haha!!"

While the two were talking, a middle-aged man who looked like a businessman walked towards the two from the direction of the counter with a pot, and laughed on the way: "Isn't it! Everyone is rich now, and a luxurious life is naturally necessary, this old man, you just came here, right?"

Xu Chuan knew that if he wanted to know about the things here at the moment, the best thing was to ask the local people, and now he could only know the situation here by drinking and chatting, Xu Chuan hurriedly gave up a position and said: "Indeed, come, brother come and sit, let's drink together!!"

The middle-aged man's merchant also sat down unceremoniously and said, "Presumably you are also late for the inn, so you have no place to live, right?" Xu Chuan was also stunned when he heard this, and said, "How do you know?"

"Haha! I've been here a lot lately, and I know that many of us merchants have nowhere to live, so we come here to drink and kill time, and then leave here after the morning has sold the goods. After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he continued to pour wine and drink.

Xu Chuan chatted with the middle-aged man's businessman and learned that the original city at this time has really changed a lot, all the taxes are very low, and provide this absolute condition, anyone who enters here must not make trouble, there is no oppression by the emperor and nobles, and there is no protection fee, as long as you pay taxes normally, you can enter the city to trade.

From the mouth of the merchant, he also learned that the lord of the city here was a peaceful old man, and sometimes he could see it on the street, and when the merchant mentioned the lord of the city, the admiration and gratitude on his face were almost written on his face.

"Hmph, it's not like there's a bastard son, otherwise it should be better here!" Ling'er said coldly again.

After Xu Chuan heard Ling'er's words, he hurriedly kicked Ling'er under the table so that she could make up her mind, and the businessman on the side didn't show any signs of anger after hearing it, but preached to Xu: "The city lord has no heirs, you won't meet a liar outside the city, right?"

"Childless??"

Xu Chuan also began to wonder, the young man who forced into this restaurant before, obviously even the shopkeeper here called him Gongzi, but if the city lord had no heirs, then what kind of person was that young man.

"Yes, the whole city knows that the city lord does not have an heir here, someone pretended to be here before, and then he was directly put in prison, and then no one dared to pretend to be the son of the city lord, it is estimated that you are a liar you met outside the city, you must be careful, there are many black-hearted people outside the city, don't be deceived, but no one dares to go wild when you enter the city!"

"Then who is the owner of this restaurant?" Xu Chuan believed that if the young man before was not the son of the city lord, he must be the son of the owner of this restaurant, so he entered this restaurant so casually.

"It's also the city lord, in order to make it easier for us foreign merchants to have a place to stay, the restaurant specially announced by the city lord is open all day and never closes, and this habit has lasted for a month!" the merchant continued to drink as he spoke.

Xu Chuan and Ling'er glanced at each other and then drank with the merchant, and when the merchant smelled the smell of the wine, he exclaimed, "It's not good!

"Yes, what's the matter?" Ling'er thought that the merchant also thought that the wine was expensive, but the merchant whispered: "It's over, it's over, I won't be able to sell the goods tomorrow!"

Xu Chuan also said curiously: "Why did Your Excellency say this?

"This wine is a fine wine, but the wine is very strong, you will know later, with the old man by his side, there is nothing wrong with making less money for a day, come on, drink!" After saying that, the merchant continued to taste the sunset greedily.
