Chapter 37: Turn off the lights

The Yan's caravan successfully entered Miaoxiji before the gate was closed, although this Miaoxiji was only a village, but compared to Dongling Village, it was heaven and earth. The area of the village is more than 15 times that of Dongling Village, and the population has reached nearly 6,000. There are inns, taverns, and markets in the village, and on the road, people come and go, and there is a bit of a prosperous scene. At the gate of the village, there were people from the Yan clan caravan who came to greet him, and after checking into the inn, Lin Bin knew that the Yan clan caravan going to Dongling Village was only one of the entire caravansera, and the personnel had expanded more than four times at once, which made him have a clearer understanding of the strength of the Yan family.

After some busyness, Yao Sheng came to Lin Bin and Blue Wolf's room and invited them to go out to dine with Yan Pengyu.

Out of the inn only need to walk dozens of steps, you will come to the largest restaurant Miaoxi Lou Miaoxi Building, the upper and lower three-story wooden buildings, in the low bungalows occupy the vast majority of Miaoxi concentration, it seems to stand out from the crowd. Yan Pengyu asked for a large private room here, from which you can clearly see the Asan Mountains and Miao Creek next to Miao Xiji. It's just that this Miao Creek, in Lin Bin's opinion, can already be called a river, as far as the eye can see, the narrowest water surface is also seven or eight meters wide, this is still in the dry season in winter, if it is in the wet season, he estimates that it must be at least ten meters wide.

"Come, Brother Lin, Brother Cang, try this Miaoxi special product of green plum wine, the sour and light aroma of green plum and the strong and mellow sugar are kneaded together, and the taste is very good. There is plum wine produced in various parts of Tokai County, but I still like the green plum wine of Miaoxiji the most. It's a pity that this green plum wine is not easy to preserve, and it is not convenient to transport, so only when you go to Miaoxi can you enjoy this blessing. Yan Pengyu said with a smile, and Yao Sheng filled the wine glasses in front of Lin Bin and the blue wolf.

Lin Bin picked up the wine glass, the wine in the glass was turquoise, crystal clear, and a faint but pleasant aroma came out of the glass. The aura of heaven and earth in this world is strong, and the fruits produced are inferior to the fruits produced in Kunlun in the sacred mountain in terms of aroma and taste, and the green plum wine in Yan Pengyu's mouth, at least in terms of aroma, has surpassed all the wine that Lin Bin has drunk in his life. Although the villagers of Dongling Village also make wine, the aroma is not strong, and the wine is turbid. As for the taste, at that time, Lin Bin had no intention of paying attention to these things at all.

The blue wolf picked up the wine glass, first saluted Yan Pengyu and Yao Sheng, and then raised his neck, and it was all in his stomach.

Lin Bin also raised his glass to Yan Pengyu and the two, and then took a sip and tasted the green plum wine. Yan Pengyu saw it in his eyes, and he was even more sure that Lin Bin must be from an extraordinary background.

After entering this green plum wine, the fragrance is refreshing, the aftertaste is endless, and what makes Lin Bin even more pleased is that the wine also contains a trace of aura. Although the aura is limited, it is conducive to the absorption of the human body. For Lin Bin, the appetite is long gone, but there are good things, and he doesn't care about opening meat, especially now that there are three big households that devour aura, if he can replenish aura, he will naturally like to see it.

"It seems that Brother Lin is still satisfied with this wine. Yan Pengyu laughed and said, "It's a pity that the annual output of Miaoxiji is only more than two hundred bottles, and it can't be transported long-distance, so you can only enjoy it every time you come to Miaoxiji." ”

"Only more than 200 bottles?" Lin Bin couldn't help but smack his tongue, this output is indeed a little too low.

The restaurant quickly sent the dishes like water, although in terms of taste, it is not the same as the major cuisines of the Celestial Empire, but because many of these ingredients are rich in spiritual energy, and they are naturally raised, they are nutritious to eat.

"Brother Yan, how far is it from Miaoxiji to Xinghai City?" Lin Bin asked casually.

"It will take about ten days to walk, but from here to Xinghai City, the road is relatively quiet, there are six villages and small towns on the road, and it is basically guaranteed that you will not spend the night in the wild continuously. Yan Pengyu said, "However, we can't be careless because of this. ”

"Isn't this Miao Creek open to shipping?" Lin Bin asked, pointing to the river not far downstairs, here, he only saw a very simple dock, and four small ferries were moored, but he didn't see any ships that looked like cargo ships or passenger ships.

"This Miao River is said to be a stream, but it is the third largest river in Donghai County, the water is deep and rapid, and there are many dangerous water beasts inhabiting it. Tokai-gun has only been developed for a short time, and it is close to Asan, so there are no people to clean up this watershed. Ordinary ships simply cannot sail in the river. Yao Sheng replied, "If the Miaoxi waterway can be opened up, in fact, the time to return to Xinghai City by boat from here can be shortened by at least half." ”

"Boating in Miao Creek, at least for the next few decades, everyone just thinks about it. Yan Pengyu waved his hand and said, "The water beasts of the Langjiang River and the Luohua River have not been cleared yet, where is the turn to get Miao Xi." "The Langjiang River and the Luohua River are recorded in the "Chongguo Geographical Record", which is the first and second largest rivers in Donghai County, and the basins of the two major rivers account for about 71% of the land area of the entire Donghai County, and many cities are located.

"If this Miao Creek can be used for shipping, this Miao Creek will probably be several times more prosperous than it is now!" Yao Sheng said with emotion.

"That's true, but if the water beast is not removed, it is necessary to build extremely strong ships, and there must be a large number of guards, and the transportation cost is too high. Yan Pengyu shook his head and sighed, "Hey, by the way, Brother Lin, I heard Brother Cang mention it, you can make a bow?"

"Hey, Brother Lin's bow-making skills, that's the best!" The blue wolf stretched out the thumbs of both hands and smiled, Lin Bin returned and promised to tailor a strong bow for the Canghu, and the six-stone strong bow handed down by the Cang family could naturally belong to him. The blue wolf's heart is very cool.

"In fact, with this hand-made bow-making skill, Brother Lin can live comfortably in Xinghai City. Yan Pengyu filled Lin Bin with wine, "In the future, if Brother Lin has extra strong bows and plans to sell them, don't forget my brother." ”

Lin Bin drank the wine and said happily: "Then it's annoying Brother Yan." Although he is now a little self-preservation, his understanding of this world is still too shallow, and on the path of cultivation, no matter where the resources needed, for ordinary people, it is sky-high.

Yan Pengyu and Yao Sheng both laughed heartily, and the atmosphere on the wine table naturally became more and more enthusiastic. Slowly the sky darkened, and the four corners of the private room were lit with oil lamps, and when I looked out the window, the village was also flickering with lights. Outside the wall, it was pitch black.

"It's a pity that the clouds cover the earth tonight, otherwise, watching the moon here is also a great pleasure of life. Yan Pengyu sighed lightly.

And at this moment, they suddenly heard a rapid bell outside the building, and the four of them couldn't help but be stunned, put down the wine glasses in their hands, and the guys in the store broke in in a panic and said: "A few guests, please turn off the lights quickly, I'm afraid my life will be in danger if it's late." As he spoke, he didn't wait for Yan Pengyu and them to speak, he extinguished the lights in the four corners of the private room, and then left in a hurry.

And not only in this restaurant, Lin Bin noticed that the lights in other parts of the village were also rapidly extinguishing......
