Chapter 185: Cunning Guests, Come to Fight (9)
From the poor fish out of the city all the way to the south, the ink demon went all the way to the south, and soon came to the junction with Chen Guo.
As a result of this great victory, Chen Guo has included Pingcui Kingdom in the territory, and the original city boundary does not exist. The little demon was mixed in with some of the poor people who were constantly on the move, waiting in line to enter the original border city of the Chen Kingdom, Mocheng.
At this time, the hukou system was not too strict, and each city welcomed strong laborers into its jurisdiction. After all, so many people have to eat, and years of conquest have consumed five or six out of ten laborers.
What's more, this Mocheng was originally a border city garrisoned, and the young and middle-aged people in it had already been conscripted into the army, and now they suddenly wanted to change it to a hinterland, and the county guard of this city could think of a way to encourage early marriage on the one hand, and to settle the displaced people on the other hand.
The appearance of the ink demon is now fifteen or sixteen years old. In this era of continuous warfare, he can already be regarded as half an adult.
The guards at the city gate saw that she was dressed in rags, obviously with no oil and water to fish, and then looked at her face and looked like a standard yellow-skinned outcast, so they did not let her into the city without difficulty.
The architecture of Mocheng is not as casual as that of Poor Fish, and Chen is an old vassal state. Counting up the generations, the Zhou royal family is a blood family. Now it is also dominating the countries, even if it is a small border city, although the area is not weak and the poor fish are large, but its layout and construction are much more neat than the Pingcui country.
Along the main street of Mocheng, Mo Xiaoyou walked all the way, Mocheng was not her destination, she just wanted to stay here for a short time and recuperate.
Although the further south she went, the less likely she was to be caught by Situ, she still decided to change her face to increase her security and accumulate political capital along the way.
She didn't think that as the lord of the Yan Country, she would easily hire an unknown person. Even if the climate is very open to debaters at this time, it is obviously not easy for an unknown person to ask for a meeting with the head of a country.
At least, she didn't even have a referral. In this era, if you want to create your own fame, you can either rely on bravery, or by resourcefulness, or by birth.
Wang Mo does not have a famous teacher, at least it has nothing to do with the famous Kong, Mo, and Lao. As for bravery...... Mo Xiaoyou pinched Wang Mo's arm like dry firewood, if you exercise now, can you grow two taels of meat when you arrive in Chu State?
Resourcefulness...... Well, she needs a platform......
While thinking, Mo Xiaoyou approached the wine shop with ventilation on all sides, and when the boss stepped forward, he ordered a pot of wine, a bowl of noodles, and a plate of pickles below.
The meal, which seemed to her to be very shabby, aroused the suspicious and envious eyes of the other people at the same table: "This little boy is out alone? ”
The round-faced man sitting across from him raised his head from his wooden bowl, his eyes staring straight at the face of the ink demon, as if she had flowers on her face.
"Exactly."
With a kind smile, Mo Xiaoyou's face was ignorant, as if he was really a teenager who went out alone for the first time.
"But you came from Pingcui to avoid trouble? Where do you need to live? ”
This time, it was not the round-faced man on the other side who asked the question, but a man with a very lively look sitting on the left hand side of the ink demon, although his clothes were quite neat, but the sleeves that had been worn short revealed the fact that he was not wealthy.
After Mo Xiaoyou nodded, he shook his head again: "This big brother, although I came here to avoid trouble, I don't plan to stay here for a long time. Accommodation is needed, but is there a place for people to rent for a few nights? “
"How many nights is rented...... Then you can come to my house. How about a cloth coin a night? “
The man's eyes flashed with fine light, but the round-faced man was happy at this time, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth: "Wei San, you don't have to be so eager to pit people, right?" Still in this court, and not afraid of being slapped in the face? ”
