Chapter 31 The King of the Wind Wheel
The city with a population of one million can be called huge, and Gu Sheng and Yan Ruyu followed up the city's soil buns, which is actually about the same.
The two of them saw everything fresh, especially Yan Ruyu, who couldn't take her eyes back at all.
"Childe, Childe, look at how little that person is wearing."
"Childe, that person has a bird on his head."
"Childe ......"
Yan Ruyu was chattering all the way, excited like a child going out for the first time.
Gu Sheng also found that the folk customs here are very different from those in Qingyang County, probably due to the influence of maritime trade, and the atmosphere is much more open.
For example, clothing...... Gu Sheng saw many women wearing low-cut skirts, covered with translucent light lezaars, quite open.
However, most people are still ordinary, especially the low-level people, and they can't see wearing this kind of clothes.
In addition, there are many women who dress up in men's clothing.
Gu Sheng felt like he had jumped from Daming to the Tang Dynasty all at once, and the social atmosphere was extremely different.
The spirit of ordinary people is also much better, it can be seen that as long as the people here have strength, they will always be hungry.
Along the way, Yan Ruyu's shouting didn't attract many strange glances, most people were quite tolerant, and they seemed to be used to seeing dirt buns like Yan Ruyu.
This made Gu Sheng have a good impression of this place.
In addition, the air here has a little salty smell, and Gu Sheng feels like a tourist city he has been to before.
When the two arrived and found an inn, they asked for two taels of silver a day to go to the room, and Gu Sheng almost thought that he had encountered a robbery from a black shop.
"That's it." Gu Sheng took a turn, and it was indeed worth the price, which was about the same as the suites of later generations.
After entering, there is a living room, and then there are the left and right wings, and there is a safe in the wings, which is the iron cabinet inlaid in the wall of Qingyunguan.
Unless someone like Gu Sheng, who is armed with a divine weapon, can cut the cabinet open, there is no need to worry about losing anything at all.
Ideal for those who come and go by the sea.
The two swords that I got from Qingyunguan, one was a flying sword, and the other had a scabbard inlaid with precious stones, and the sharpness was about the same as that of the Flying Fish Knife.
More than 300 years of wild ginseng, a branch of the nourishing god tree, and a piece of tungsten gold - I got it from reading a travelogue when I was traveling in a horse-drawn carriage before, and it is said that when I built a weapon, I can add it to increase sharpness and toughness.
Several books, including "The Record of the Three Yuan Law", were stuffed into the cabinet in the same way, and Gu Sheng suddenly found that he really had a lot of good things.
If these things are taken out and sold, they can be sold for at least tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Finally, he stuffed the pile of gold ingots and the tiger whip into it.
Yan Ruyu thought about it for a while, and stuffed the ball containing the woman in Tsing Yi into it, only to see that there were seven or eight small cracks on it.
It's all these days when he is idle and has nothing to do, Gu Sheng occasionally plays a song, and there will be one more crack.
At this rate, it is estimated that it will take a long time to completely crack.
"Childe, go out and walk around again, it's so lively here!" Yan Ruyu pulled Gu Sheng's sleeve, she had just been on the road for seven days, and when this girl saw the prosperity here, she immediately couldn't stay.
"Okay, let's go get something to eat first." Gu Sheng and the two directly asked for wine and food on the first floor of the inn and listened to people chatting, all kinds of things.
For example, a maritime merchant brought a treasure and was bought by a prince who spent thousands of dollars.
For example, the maritime merchants spent a lot of money on the Oiran.
For example, the Sea Gang and the Blue Dragon Gang fought because of the route.
For example, there is a master of using knives from the north, and he picks six martial arts halls in a row.
Listening to these chats, the biggest feeling for Gu Sheng is vitality, as well as wealth and luxury; The rich family is extravagant, and the sons of the family spend a lot of money on the wealth.
In addition, there are also some topics such as sea monsters, ghosts, and youkai, but they all move on to other places after a few words.
After eating, Yan Ruyu was pulled out to hang out, and the two of them turned around a few streets nearby, and saw the pavilions and pavilions in the green building, and the lanterns were hanging high, Yan Ruyu wanted to go in and have a look.
To be honest, Gu Sheng also wanted to go and see it.
It's a pity that Yan Ruyu was stopped when she walked to the door.
After all, this is more than bringing your own drinks, and it belongs to bringing your own meals.
Yan Ruyu, who was angry, muttered vigorously that she would wear men's clothes next time.
At night, the whole city is lit up and more alive than during the day, and it is full of colorful lights, as if it were a festival.
After playing for most of the day, Yan Ruyu finally got fresh, and went back to sleep when she returned to the inn.
Gu Sheng first did a body refinery, and felt the strength seeping into the bones of his limbs little by little.
Then I sat on the bed and thought about what I should do.
After all, you can't just rent a yard and read a book every day, right? It's not that it's impossible, it's just that it's too boring after a long time, and the news is too closed.
After all, there is too little news about the Taoist monks, and if he can, he also wants to get acquainted with a few and learn about the trends in the industry.
Gu Sheng thought about it for a long time and gave up the idea of opening a medical center, this was too troublesome and there were too many things.
As for medical skills, it's a trivial matter, just buy a few medical books to read.
Thinking about it, it is best to open a bookstore, you can usually read books, and Yan Ruyu is responsible for sorting out.
The more Gu Sheng thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was good.
……
The next day, Gu Sheng went to the tooth shop to inquire, and the other party checked it a little and said with a smile.
"The son came by coincidence, there happened to be a bookstore to change hands, the old gentleman has been open for 20 years, and now his health is not as good as before, he wants to return to his hometown, this matter is a little urgent, so he entrusted us to help find a suitable home.
The location is in Anyufang, facing the street, not far from the East Market, if the son has a heart, now I will take you to see? However, this bookstore is accompanied by a title deed, and the price is not cheap. ”
"Check it out." Gu Sheng went out for a stroll yesterday, but he knew that there were fourteen roads in Xinning Mansion, which ran through the whole city horizontally and vertically, dividing the city into thirty-six areas, thirty-four squares, and the east and west markets.
Generally speaking, those transported by sea are in the East Market, and those transported by land are all in the West Market.
There are a lot of strange things in the East Market, and there are some bulk commodities that are convenient for shipping.
The West Market is a traditional trade such as cattle and horse dealers, blacksmiths, etc.
All the way to the location of the bookstore, sure enough, it is on the main street, a row of two-story shops on the street, just at one end, and then walk through a square is the East Market.
The area of the bookstore is not small, there are more than 200 square meters downstairs, and there are dense bookshelves.
When Gu Sheng entered, he saw a statue of a god with red hair and fangs, he was now extremely sensitive to this, and asked, "What kind of god is this?" ”
"Listening to Childe's accent is a foreigner? Childe doesn't know that this is the King of the Wind Wheel. "The owner of the bookstore is an old man in his fifties, with gray hair and not very good health.
"Oh? I don't know where this person comes from? I thought that the bookstores generally enshrined Kuixing, Wenqu Xing and the like. Gu Sheng became more and more curious.
"This wind wheel Guangze king, it is said that he was originally a monster on the sea, stepping on the hot wheels, holding the big moon, seeing things and beautiful people, improvised the wind and made a monster, and got involved in the hole. Later, he was surrendered by the Emperor of Heaven and was named the King of Wind Wheel Guangze, in charge of the East China Sea generals, protecting all living beings, and being one of the four protectors of the Daomen! ”
The corners of Gu Sheng's eyes jumped suddenly.
If I remember correctly, that Marshal Wen is also known as one of the four protectors of the Daomen.
It can't be such a coincidence, right?
The power behind Xu Daoren is so big? Or is it in the name of a pretense?
It's the same as the identity of any small factory in later generations to get a top ten domestic brand?
Gu Sheng pressed this matter to the bottom of his heart, upstairs and downstairs took a turn, upstairs and downstairs are more than 200 square meters, downstairs is a bookstore, and the boss lives upstairs.
There is also a small yard of 100 square meters at the back, a kitchen is built, and some flowers and plants are planted.
I asked the price, and the books downstairs totaled two thousand two hundred taels.
Among them, the title deed costs two thousand taels, and as for those books, they are also worth three or four hundred taels.
Gu Sheng was satisfied, he just wanted to open a bookstore, and it didn't matter if he made money or not.
Anyway, the title deed is your own, and even if you lose it, you won't be able to lose anything.
Then he said: "Everything else is fine, you have to send this King of Wind Wheel Guangze away, I want to worship Wenqu Xing here." ”
"It's easy to talk about this, I'll go back and send it to Guangze Temple." The boss had an intention when he saw that things were so fast, and he was also happy in his heart.
Gu Sheng secretly wrote down Guangzeguan, and said to the teeth:
"Help me find a rented single courtyard, the closer the better, the price is easy to say."
Yaxingxiao's eyes narrowed, this is a big customer.
