Chapter 164: It's Hard to Enter the City
Geng Mo is familiar with this routine when he hears it, and it is played on TV all day long.
Let people hide in swill buckets, that thing stinks and dirty, who checks it, so it's easy to get into the city.
But then again, others can't stand it, and he can't stand it.
Is that thing for people?
However, the person who asked for food couldn't be too hungry, and people were kind enough to help him, so he was embarrassed to make more requests, and hurriedly thanked: "Let the uncle bother." ”
"It's not easy to go out, just help if you can, go, eat." The uncle smiled indifferently.
After breakfast, Geng Mo was ready to follow his uncle to the house of his fellow villagers in Swill.
Before leaving, he always felt that he should leave something behind to express his gratitude to his uncle's family.
If it weren't for the uncle's warm hospitality and helping him think of a way to enter the city, it is estimated that his character this time would have failed in high school.
If you can't get it, you have to ask for a month's food here, and it feels sad to think about it.
People are working so hard to help you, you are embarrassed and always feel embarrassed.
But Geng Mo came this time with a strip, and he didn't even know where the system had gotten his clothes, and there was really nothing he could get his hands on.
Hey, wait.
I don't know if I can exchange things here.
Thinking of this, Geng Mo hurriedly calmed down and entered the Hongmeng exchange list, and found that it could really be exchanged, which was definitely a surprise for him.
It's just that the things in here are all high-value items, and they often need tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of Hongmeng points, so it's really not good to give them away as small gifts.
As he was thinking about it, he suddenly noticed that at the end of the exchange list, there was an item to exchange the currently available currency.
In addition to copper coins, there are also silver taels and gold.
And the exchange price is very reasonable, one tael of gold can be exchanged for ten taels of silver, and it takes 200 Hongmeng points, which is equivalent to two thousand yuan, which is exactly in line with the purchasing power at that time.
So Geng Mo exchanged 400 Hongmeng points for twenty taels of silver, planning to keep ten taels for the old man, and ten taels for himself in case of emergency.
After the exchange was completed, Geng Mo secretly put ten taels of silver under the pillow in his sleeping room, and then prepared to follow the old man to find his fellow villager.
As soon as he went out, Linglong ran out and handed a bag of dry food to Geng Mo and said, "This is what I made this morning, take it on the road and eat it." ”
Geng Mo held the dry food that still had residual warmth, and he was very moved in his heart.
The old man looked at Geng Mo, then at his granddaughter with a crimson face, and said with a smile: "Little brother, I will come to the house to sit when I have time in the future, there are no good things at home, and there are two enthusiastic hearts." ”
"Uncle, I will definitely come when I have the chance." Geng Mo hurriedly responded, but he knew in his heart that it was unlikely.
The old man nodded with a smile, turned to his granddaughter and said, "Okay, don't everyone promise to come, don't you be reluctant, go home quickly." ”
"Grandpa!" Linglong was ashamed and ashamed, covered her face and ran back home.
"Hehehe, this kid is still embarrassed." The old man looked kind, stared at Geng Mo and said meaningfully: "What's so embarrassing about the marriage of a man and a woman." ”
How could Geng Mo not understand what the old man meant, but this was destined to be impossible.
But he was afraid of hurting the old man's heart, so he could only pretend to be stupid and said, "Girl, it's normal to be bad." ”
The old man smiled and didn't say anything, but took Geng Mo directly to the fellow countryman.
At this time, the fellow had already put the bucket of swill on the car, and when he saw Geng Mo, he said enthusiastically: "This is Brother Geng who wants to enter the city, hello, hello." ”
The fellow looked less than forty years old, and he had grown a body of tendon flesh after a long time of manual labor.
But strong is strong, people are very honest, in the words of modern people, they are stupid and big.
"Qing Yanzi, I will leave the people to you, you must take care of me." The old man specially admonished.
Qing Yanzi smiled innocently, patted Geng Modi on the shoulder and promised, "Don't worry, I will definitely bring the little brother into the city safely." ”
With his assurance, the old man was completely relieved, and left after greeting Geng Mo a few more words.
After seeing the old man leave, Qing Yanzi turned his head to look at Geng Mo and said, "Little Brother Geng, it's not too early, it's time for us to go." ”
Geng Mo nodded, and he was not familiar with the etiquette of the Qing Dynasty, so he could only hug his fists and say, "Then it will be troublesome Brother Qinglingzi." ”
With that, he made a gesture and prepared to squat in the swill bucket.
This stunned the young man on the side, and hurriedly stopped: "Little Brother Geng, what are you doing here?" ”
"Don't you have to hide inside?" Geng Mo also looked at Qing Yanzi with a cute face.
Qing Yanzi once again showed his trademark smile: "No, when you get to the city gate, you can just pretend to help me push the cart." ”
Geng Mo's old face suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly stayed away from the swill bucket, and muttered vigorously: "It's different from the TV series." ”
Next, the two didn't waste any more time and set off directly.
Qing Yanzi pushed the wheelbarrow in front, and Geng Mo followed behind like a big-tailed wolf.
It's not that he doesn't want to help, he really can't handle it without pushing it.
The two walked a long way to the gate of the city.
Geng Mo knew that as long as he entered that gate, he would be considered to have entered the city, and it was the legendary Shangjing, the real foot of the Son of Heaven.
Just when he was excited, Qing Yanzi reminded in a whisper: "Little brother, help me quickly, don't let the official see the flaws"
Geng Mo nodded hurriedly, and pushed the swill cart with great effort with Qing Yanzi.
In a blink of an eye, the two came to the city gate, and the city gate official glanced at Qing Lingzi and laughed: "Okay, Qing Yanzi, you hired someone after not seeing you for two days?" ”
Qing Yanzi wiped his sweat and said honestly: "Don't make fun of me, how can I have money to recruit people when I pour swill, this is my cousin, I have nothing to do at home, I will take him out to help, and by the way, I will go into the city to see the world." ”
Hearing this, the city gate official got up and came to Geng Mo's side, and after looking at it, he wondered, "Why do I look at this person?" ”
"Official, this is my distant cousin, who only came here in the past two days, so I look at Miansheng." Qing Yanzi hurriedly explained.
"Hey, that sounds fresh." The city gate official turned his head to his subordinates and said, "I only heard that there are people in the city who want to run out, but I haven't heard of anyone who wants to go inside. ”
As soon as Geng Mo heard this, he knew that it was bad, and this city gate official obviously didn't plan to let him go.
Qing Yanzi was also anxious at this time, and begged: "Official, you can do it, when I come out, there is too much swill, and I can't push it alone." ”
"!" The official said with a posture of not entering oil and salt: "You were not alone before, and if you say that you are not allowed, you will not be allowed to do it, and even you will enter in the future." ”
