Chapter 1099: Ginger Flower Wine
Bai Heran got on the carriage to Tongcheng as he wished, and knelt down for Bai Jinghong as soon as he got into the carriage, "Thank you Madame for saving the slave and maid, thank you Madame for taking in the slave and maid." Madam, the slave is useless, and she has not been able to stay in the house and wait for you. But it's really not the slave's fault, you just left the house, and the lord slapped me as soon as he turned around, he said that I was unlucky, and said that I followed you, and nothing good happened in the house. So the master drove the slave and maid back to my aunt, and my aunt asked Zhuyun to throw me out...... Woo, madam, don't drive the slave and maid away, the slave and maid really have nowhere to go! Woo......"
Looking at the little girl who was crying in front of her, Bai Jinghong was helpless. She didn't want to take anyone from the Wei Mansion to Tongcheng, because then she would be a goof, and the secret of her marrying the prefects of both places at the same time would be revealed.
If this had been left in the past, with her temper at that time, she would have been a little girl, and she would have thrown it away.
But now is different from the past, Xu is always thinking that she is going to see Bai Heran, she can't kill anymore, she can't be dyed with blood anymore, otherwise it will be even more difficult to talk when she comes to Bai Heran. So this back and forth, there is really a little more compassion. Besides, she can't bear this little chrysanthemum, although it is not far from Lancheng to Tongcheng, but the carriage also has to go for three days and two nights, how to pass the hour? There is a little chrysanthemum here, at least I can talk to her, and I can tell her about the capital.
At the west gate of Lancheng, Winter Snow watched the carriage gradually move away, and sighed in his heart.
She was the secret guard of the white crane, but now that the master was on the road alone, she stayed with Mo Yu. Although this is also a mission, but now that the master has no one by his side, he is alone in the middle of the enemy, how can she be reassured?
I hope that the master can meet with the Ten Highnesses as soon as possible after arriving in the copper city, and I also hope that the task on their side will end as soon as possible, and she and Mo Yu will return to the master.
Eastern Qin, Tongcheng.
Because of the infinite proximity to Gebu, because the distance between the two countries is only a city gate and a small river, the appearance of the Tongcheng people is very similar to that of the Gebu people, the facial features are more three-dimensional than those of the Central Plains, the eye sockets are also deeper, the nose bridge is more straight, and the skin is not as fair as the Central Plains people. But there are still differences, such as accents, such as the Tongcheng people are slightly shorter than the Gobu people.
It is said that the reason for this difference is mainly due to the regional water source, in short, when the Gobu people walk on the boundary of the copper city, although they are not immediately recognizable, they can still find clues when they look closely, let alone speak.
In today's Tongcheng, not to mention that half of them are Gobu people, it is not too much, and the planned migration in the past six months has made Tongcheng a small Gobu. On the busiest streets, almost all the shops are owned by the Gobu people, and only a few small shops are left that have not been annexed, and they are struggling to survive, but there are few customers, and they can't hold out for long.
In the face of this situation, the people of Tongcheng always have a feeling of surviving in the cracks, even if this is their home, even if this is their country, but as their voice in Tongcheng becomes lighter and lighter, people begin to wonder whether this is still suitable for the life of the Eastern Qin people, and whether they want to continue to live here.
There are also people who think more, they are thinking, if one day the original people of the copper city have left, then what is this copper city? At that time, all the people living here are Gebu people, so is this the territory of Eastern Qin or the territory of Gebu?
In this way, without spending a single soldier, Gebu took away a city in Eastern Qin?
There is a restaurant in Tongcheng, called Guangju Pavilion, which means to gather guests from all over the world, and those who come sit on the guests.
This was originally the largest restaurant in Tongcheng, and it was also the most fragrant food, the most complete dishes, and the most famous restaurant. The restaurant is run by a well-known local gentleman, who made a fortune with only one restaurant, which is very enviable.
But as more and more Gebu people poured into Tongcheng, and as more and more Gebu people entered the shops in Tongcheng, Kang Xuewen, the prefect of Tongcheng, sold the shops in Tongcheng to them again and again, and persuaded the original merchants to transfer their stores and hand them over to the Gebu people to take care of.
At best, it is persuasion, and at worst, it is a threat, because Kang Xuewen said that if he does not sell his shop, then the government will strictly supervise this shop in the future and take care of it.
The people don't fight with the officials, no matter how rich the gentry are, they can't fight the local prefect, not to mention that this prefect has a lot of connections with the first emperor, and now the saint has handed over all the copper city to the Kang prefect to take care of. This Kang Xuewen is almost the same as a soil emperor, who would dare to go head-to-head with such an existence? Isn't that waiting to hit your head and bleed?
As a result, one merchant after another gave up their shops, and they all gave way at a low price, and they lost a lot of money.
Guangju Pavilion is no exception, because it is the largest and most famous restaurant in Tongcheng, and it has been targeted by the Gobu people from the very beginning. The first thing that the Gebu people planned was Guangju Pavilion, and it didn't work for the boss of Guangju Pavilion to do anything left and right.
Under Kang Xuewen's strong intervention, the gentleman still refused to hand over the shop, and even shouted that he wanted to go to Beijing to sue the emperor and accuse Kang Xuewen of colluding with Gebu to loot the Eastern Qin. Unexpectedly, on a rainy night in late autumn, the gentleman died tragically on the streets of Tongcheng.
Guangjulou smoothly fell into the hands of the Gebu people, and it was open without a day of delay. It's just that the chef who cooks the dishes inside has changed people, and he has been replaced by a Gebu person, and even the shopkeeper has been replaced by a Gobu people.
At first, people didn't think much of it, but then they gradually found out that after the shops on the street were taken over by the Gobu people, all the previous guys were all dismissed and replaced by Gobu people. This led to the unemployment of many people in the Eastern Qin Dynasty, and the people of Gebu came to work in the copper city more and more, and then took the silver they earned back to Gebu month by month.
Not only that, but the chef of Gobu cooks out the meals that the Gobu people are accustomed to, and the dim sum shops opened by the Gobu people only sell the dim sum that the Gobu people are accustomed to, and even the clothes that are often worn by the Gobu people are sold in the ready-to-wear shops.
Jun Mulin took Tian Kailang and Luo Xiu to walk on the noisy streets of Tongcheng, watching people coming and going, listening to the voices of Ding Bu, and found that most of the people who came to the ears were Gebu accents, and most of the faces they saw were Gebu faces. He bought Gebu snacks, picked up Gebu mountain goods, and listened to the nursery rhymes sung by the children on the street, and his face became more and more gloomy.
"Gu Technique can actually control Na Kang Xuewen to this?" This was a question to Tian Kailang, "Is the Gu Yi technique omnipotent?" ”
Tian Kailang thought for a while and shook his head, "It can't be said to be omnipotent, at least it can't make people grow wings to fly, but it is indeed very powerful, powerful enough to control anyone to do anything." As long as that person is on the path of Gu art, even a person like you, Your Highness the Tenth, will not be able to get rid of the control of Gu art. If the prefect of this copper city really fell for the Gu technique, then he can't blame him for developing the copper city like this, he can only say that the Gebu people are too bad to come up with such a method. ”
Jun Murin stopped talking, because he thought that Bai Heran had said that his ninth brother was also hit by Gu, and the dignified hall master of the Hades Palace had no ability to resist in the face of Gu poison, and he didn't think that he could escape by himself. But fortunately, he is not afraid now, there is a drop of blood planted for him by Bai Heran, and no Gu master can help him.
Tian Kailang seemed to guess what he was thinking, and said softly with a smile: "Your Highness Ten, don't worry, even if Lin Hansheng is against the princess of Tianci, he has no power to fight back." Therefore, in the Gu technique, there is a god-given princess, so we are not afraid. ”
While talking, the three of them were walking to the door of the Guangju Pavilion, and a welcoming man beckoned to them, greeting them in authentic Gebu dialect: "A few guest officers, it's noon, come in and have some food!" We have a new master who makes roast goose in Guangju Pavilion, and the roasted goose is guaranteed to be authentic and fresh in taste. ”
Roast goose is the special food of Gebu country fresh in the city, Gebu people love to eat goose, almost every city has a shop to do goose dishes, some are mainly braised goose, some are sauce goose, some are stewed goose, fresh in the city is roast goose. Of course, none of the flavors are as delicious as Kyoto's smoked goose, but the technique of smoked goose is in the hands of the restaurant in Kyoto, and you can't eat it anywhere else except in Kyoto.
Xianyu City is the closest to Kyoto, and the roast goose is recognized as the most delicious one in addition to the smoked goose in Kyoto.
Jun Mulin and the three of them are now dressed as Gobu people, and they don't have any identity, they are just ordinary people who come to live in Tongcheng from Gebu, Tian Kailang and Luo Xiu are his two brothers. Such a combination is very common here, because there are many people in the copper city, so it is impossible to know each other, but it is a relationship in a foreign land, and the gebu seems to be relatively close, as long as they meet, they will greet each other warmly.
For example, in this Guangju Building, it is one price for Gebu people to eat, and it is another price for Dongqin people to eat, which is the difference between Ming Huanghuang. But there are still Dongqin people who come in to eat, not for anything else, just to taste the roast goose here.
After listening to the greeting, Jun Mulin and the three of them walked in happily, and the shopkeeper also greeted him warmly, and said while wiping the table: "They are all fellow villagers, no matter which city they live in when they are in Gebu, but now that we are in Dongqin, we are all a family." What do you order? Roast goose must be coming, right? ”
Jun Mulin nodded, and said in an authentic Gebu accent: "I want one roast goose, and you can bring three more of the wine and food you have here." In addition, let's have a small jar of ginger flower wine from Gebu, and I haven't tasted that for a long time. ”
He led his troops to fight in the south, and he had a lot of contacts with the Gobu people, and his accent was already familiar to him.
As soon as Xiao Eryi heard that he wanted ginger flower wine, he smiled happily, "When you go away, you naturally want to drink ginger flower wine, only ginger flower wine has the taste of our song cloth, and these broken drinks in Dongqin are worse than horse urine." By the way, a few masters, do you want ginger flowers in the south or ginger flowers in the north? ”
Jun Murin was stunned......
