Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Guest of Honor Xiao Waits for a Tour of the City

After the rescue of Chang Wang was implemented, Xiao Tong's heart suddenly relaxed a lot, and after a little discussion, the two first prepared to visit Bu Tianxuan, after all, he was Xiao Tong's mentor, Xiao Tong naturally did not want to watch the other party continue to suffer poverty in this mortal world.

However, Xiao Tong did not tell Yuan Buyi the true identity of the other party, only said that he was his childhood teacher of Wendao, who taught him to read and write, and now that he lives in this Qiaoyuan City, he can't help anything else, but he left some silver and two days, which is something he did.

Yuan Buyi praised the kindness again and again, and Xiao Tong and the two of them went out of the Julong stagecoach that was beginning to be repaired, and went to the market, they were going to buy some gifts for Bu Tianxuan, since Xiao Tong had been a disciple of Bu Tianxuan, and he came to the door for the first time, but the gift of this meeting was not saved.

This is the first time Xiao Tong has gone shopping since he came to this world, and following Yuan Buyi, the "head snake", he can be regarded as taking a big advantage, not only has he taken a lot of wrongful paths, but he also found that this Yuan Buyi is not only profound, but also a good hand even if he bargains.

The same thing, Yuan Buyi is not only quite elaborate to buy, but also extremely affordable, even if the cunning businessman, by Yuan Buyi such a soft and hard use, want to catch the old indulgence of the flip down, often much cheaper than the other party's original price.

Although this kind of shopping is a bit time-consuming, for Xiao Tong, who focuses on these daily little things for the first time, it is also quite idle fun, but remembering that it has always been Qi Niang and Yun who handle these trivial matters, and they only care about cultivation, which is the use of these things, but now they are separated, even to buy underwear and tooth powder, they have to do it themselves, and when they think of this, they can't help but be gloomy again.

But this is only because of longing and guilt, for the different kind of fun of mingling in the market and experiencing this little thing with his friends, he has no disgust, but suddenly found that this is also a very pleasant thing.

Qiao Yuancheng is very large, comparable to the general prefecture-level cities in the previous life, and the layout of the city is not much different from the previous life, if it is different, it is only that these buildings are quite ancient.

And people look much more beautiful in their clothes than in their previous lives, the warriors are tightly dressed and belted, flying shoulders and rocks, and the clothes are chic, while the literati are wearing robes, jade belts and waists, and an elegant atmosphere.

There is also a strange feeling, that is, big, although there is no accurate reference, but compared to Xiao Tong's perception, he faintly feels that the world here is not only far thousands of times the earth in the previous life, but even the buildings in the city are majestic, as if even an elephant in the previous life can drill into the backyard of ordinary people.

According to Xiao Tong's predecessor from the books, Qiao Yuan County can only be regarded as a remote place in the entire Great Yuan Dynasty, and its scale and population are relatively backward compared to most counties, but Rao is so, Xiao Tong feels that this is already quite prosperous, at least much stronger than the prefecture-level city where Xi originally lived for several years.

However, although the people here are like weaving, but the "cityscape" is extremely orderly, even if it is the most central downtown street, it is also comparable to the "five lanes" of the previous life, and the shuttle passenger vehicles have a special lane, even if it is a general mechanical vehicle, there is also a special road, and all the order is prosperous and not squeezed.

Even if it is a stall sold at zero hour, it is neatly placed in the closet, Xiao Tong suddenly discovered that the entertainment in this other world is no less than the previous life, and the stall that sells all kinds of mystical machinery and simple plates is zero Luo Qibu, Xiao Tong asked Yuan Buyi to know that this thing is used in a kind of thing called Shiping, just like the computer and disk in the previous life, in this world, this kind of thing has been basically popularized.

This feeling is like walking in a huge shopping mall, although there are a lot of people coming and going, but unless the price is polished like Xiao Tong, this is pulled back and forth with the stall owner, and there are those who buy directly on the side and pay the silver directly in a mysterious machine, and then pick up the goods directly, just like the "supermarket" in the former world.

What surprised Xiao Tong even more was that there were martial arts books sold on the "wild stalls" here, although they were all superficial martial arts books, but fortunately, they were cheap, Xiao Tong did not hesitate, and swept one or twenty books.

It's a pity that these readings are all made by some mortals, and the materials are even more crude, without any hint of inspiration, and they can't be accepted into Wen Yuling, but even if they can be accepted, after all, there is Yuan Buyi watching from the side, and he is a mortal martial artist who gathers the Yuan Realm, and he uses the power of the divine soul, which is too shocking.

Even if Yuan Buyi and him are quite close to him, and they have become his subordinates, but after all, the two have been friends for less than three days, so this kind of thing is naturally not easy to show.

However, it can be seen that Yuan Buyi is an honest gentleman, and he is also a person recommended by Qiu Dongyi, a disciple of Guigu, Xiao Tong can still feel that natural sense of closeness from his heart.

This is also the rule that Xiao Tong learned from Yuan Buyi's mouth last night, within the five countries of Xuandao, basically this rule is the same, as long as it is a marquis and above who are pardoned by one side of the jade, they can establish a "private mansion", and this private mansion is actually their own private power.

This kind of "private" power, according to the level of the "private lord" title, can be canonized in different numbers and grades, this kind of title is also called "private lord", but compared with the current dynasty "jade book seal" of the title of the degree of dignity is much lower, but according to the law, this kind of title can also be awarded at any time in the Great Yuan Dynasty.

In fact, to put it bluntly, this is the same as the "cadre administrative level" in the previous life, although in the consideration of the ministry, this kind of private officials will generally not be entrusted with important tasks, but at least from the perspective of justice, this kind of title can also enjoy the same qualifications as the "edict" title.

Fang Caiyuan Buyi said that if Xiao Tong was not the "Marquis of the Jade Book", he would not sincerely work hard for him, which is exactly what he meant, after all, if the name is not right, it is not good, if there is no recognition of the dynasty, then this kind of "private power" is guilty of "accumulating troops", which is already a serious crime.

But Xiao Tong has the title of "now the title of Marquis", then all this becomes reasonable and legitimate, and it can be said that he is indirectly recruiting talents for the court, that is to say, as long as Yuan Buyi is recognized by Xiao Tong, he can directly rise to prominence and get a noble title.

According to the official system, the high-grade marquis is only one small order lower than the national duke, and he can canonize two "lower-grade candidates" in his "private mansion", ten earls and fifty viscounts, although Xiao Tong can't imagine what kind of concept this is, but there is no doubt that as long as these more than sixty knighthood subordinates are recruited, how powerful this "private mansion" will be.

However, according to Yuan Buyi, there are not many "high-grade marquises" like him who have personally issued edicts and canonized by the Holy Emperor, even in the entire Great Yuan Dynasty, except for those "Eight Princes" who founded the country and the twenty-three generals who made great contributions to the founding of the "Great Yuan Dynasty", Xiao Tong is still the first in the past ten years.

After Yuan Buyi's explanation, Xiao Tong understood the dignity of his "Jade Book Seal" Marquis, fortunately Xiao Tong has an indifferent temperament and does not like to compete for fame and fortune, otherwise it is not difficult for him to establish a huge "private power" within the Great Yuan Dynasty with only this identity and deliberate management.

However, with this cornerstone, he can be regarded as "justifiable" to make friends with some capable people, even if it is not for his own ambitions, just to protect his family, this is undoubtedly an extremely beneficial thing, maybe Qiu Dongyi, the "senior brother" who is the Dazai of the dynasty, is thinking about this for himself, so he has won such a good lord for himself.

"There's such a big mountain shop here....... ”

The place where Yuan Buyi brought him to is a grocery area located in the east of the city, which is equivalent to a centralized business place for "low-consumption people" in the previous life, so Xiao Tong did not expect that there is a large-scale mountain goods store here, although he walked for a long time yesterday, but he did not expect that there would be such a large-scale mountain goods store in this market place.

"What's so strange about this, the mountain goods in all cities are in this slightly remote place, otherwise this large amount of mountain goods in and out, even if there are Taiwanese wrestlers, only panic is unsightly, and most of the mountain goods come from rural hunters, so naturally they have to stay in a place where there are many villagers!"

Yuan Buyi said a few simple words, but suddenly opened Xiao Tong's mouth, he just went to the city yesterday to look for it, no wonder he only found a few smaller mountain goods stores, seeing that he had a large number of second-order mountain goods to sell, one by one as if he saw a liar, Xiao Tong then reacted, it turned out that he didn't find a place, but people mistakenly thought that he was deliberately cheating.

While the two of them talked, they walked out, Xiao Tong's heart suddenly moved, when he sold mountain goods one day, he always felt that Lu Xun was too shrewd, and he couldn't deal with it, now he might as well go in and take a look to see how the market is here.

He didn't want to regret his money, even if he didn't care about money very much, but after all, this was also a way for him to understand the sincerity of the other party.

"I want to go in and have a look, if Mr. Yuan thinks it smells bad, why don't you wait outside for a while?"

Yuan Buyi glanced at Xiao Tong with a strange expression, a look that seemed to be a smile flashed in his eyes, and he shook his head lightly and said, "Okay, I happen to be familiar with this shopkeeper, if Xiao Hou has no personal affairs, his subordinates are willing to follow." ”

Xiao Tong shook his head and smiled bitterly as he walked forward: "Mr. said that I laughed, I don't have anything to do, it's just that I sold some mountain goods a few days ago, but I sold them a little confused, and I want to go in and find out the price!"

"If that's the case, then Xiao Hou needs to bring his subordinates, although this is not a big deal, but for the person who buys, this is something that is not in people's words, if you want to hear a few words of truth, it will be difficult, there are subordinates, it will be easier to find out. ”

Xiao Tong couldn't help but be embarrassed, he just wanted to go in and find out the price of this mountain goods, but he never thought that there would be such a thing, fortunately there was such a sophisticated figure beside him, otherwise even if he went in, he would only panic and return in vain, maybe he would wonder how no one would pay attention to him.
