Volume 1: The Rise of the Western Regions Chapter 124 Horse Tracks

Zhao Rang found that as long as Hedier mentioned this stranger, what he said began to be boundless......

I thought to myself, the middleman will lead the way, what is the difference between this and praying to God and worshiping Buddha? Can you really make your wishes come true in the world?

Hediye looked at Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong with a look of disbelief, and said:

"It really is! I tried it myself! ”

Zhao Rang asked suspiciously:

"You've seen a middleman this way?"

Hedier nodded like a chick pecking rice:

"Of course! More than once! ”

"So how? There are a lot of us, if it's really good, we will definitely be able to see it! ”

Yuan Mingkong seemed to believe it a little.

Believe it or not, there is no other way at the moment. I can only try some of them first, and the dead horse is regarded as a live horse doctor, what if it becomes a doctor?

"At least two or three times."

Hediye replied.

Yuan Mingkong thought he was verbose, and he couldn't get back to the point, so he asked impatiently:

"Just tell me the last time, where you are, how you saw it, and be specific!"

Hediye was rushed by Yuan Mingkong, but he didn't feel uncomfortable, but recalled seriously:

"It's in the northwest corner outside the palace. There is everything in that area, all of them are the ones who go to the rivers and lakes. Oh yes! There are also a lot of Dawei people! ”

Yuan Mingkong saw that he was about to speak crookedly, his eyes widened, and Hediye immediately pulled it back and continued:

"That time it was a single night when the country fell into the spring cold, and the hail was the size of an egg, so it was smashed down! The grass sprouts that had just sprouted on the horse farm were all stoned to death. I thought I was going to lose all my money, so I thought I'd go to the Inhuman and ask if there was a way to crack it. ”

This is the antecedent, although it still has nothing to do with the specific approach, but it is quite interesting to listen to, Yuan Mingkong did not interrupt.

"When I went to the realm, I wandered around. Drink tea when you are thirsty, eat when you are hungry. In the end, I was really bored, and I went to visit the ready-to-wear store. As soon as a piece of clothing was left alone, I ran into a hunchbacked old man when I went out, stabbed me with a crutch, and asked me to follow him, and I knew that this time was right! ”

Hedier's face was red when he said this.

"And then?"

Zhao Rangzheng was fascinated by what he was listening to, and he suddenly stopped talking! Who can stand this?

Hediye shook his head and said:

"I can't say the back!"

Then he quickly explained:

"It's not that I don't say it! This is the rule he gave, and no one can say it! There's no next time! ”

"It's the same this time, no matter which of us sees it, we can't describe it. Just tell everyone about this matter, and how to solve it! ”

For those who believe, Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong can't help it. Fortunately, Khadier had already said a rough range - the ready-to-wear shop in the northwest corner outside the city of the King of the Night.

Zhao Rang carefully asked Hediye what the name of the teahouse where he drank tea and the restaurant where he ate, and then set off with Yuan Mingkong in the mist before the morning light.

He wanted to call Ye Sanniang together, but Yuan Mingkong asked her to take care of his sister, so Zhao Rang didn't say anything.

Of course, Simon Dazhuang is still asleep...... If no one calls him, unless he wakes up hungry, he will have to sleep at the right time.

Follow the long street at the entrance of the Tsing Yi Ke and go all the way to the east, and you will reach the palace.

This is different from Dawei.

According to the feng shui of Dawei, most of the houses are sitting in the north and facing south, and the imperial city is built in the middle of the town. On the side of the Shan Ye Kingdom, Zhao Rang found that many beautiful houses were built with their backs to the east, even if the houses would conflict with the terrain because of this. This was true of Khadier's house in the Tsing Yi and in the royal palace.

Before walking to the royal city, the east was already a little white. Looking at this situation, Zhao Rang was somewhat able to understand.

With its backdrop to the east, when the sun rises, the palace transforms into silhouettes, bringing out its majesty and mystery. Zhao Rang didn't know if he was right, but he was sure that there must be a reason.

The northwest corner is the side gate of the Palace of the Kings of the Night.

The first lord of the Single Night Country, he was born in a reckless manner. After the founding of the country, in order to prevent future generations from separating themselves from the people and not eating the suffering of the world, they specially opened the door here on the palace wall and built a market. Over the years, it has become extremely lively. From morning to night, people are like flowing water.

However, this kind of thing can only be managed for three generations at most.

The founding monarch of the previous dynasty was afraid that future generations would be too hedonistic, so he specially issued an edict requiring the successor monarch to have a taste of tofu at every meal. But over time, what wasteland is willing to eat tofu at every meal? Before the death of the country, this flavor of tofu is also known as "white bird brain", as the name suggests, it is made with the brains of a hundred rare birds...... These methods and rules are better than not standing, anyway, the further you go, the more unseemly!

In the northwest corner, there is a large teahouse, and the name on the plaque translated by Yuan Mingkong should be called Taihe.

The Western Regions can't be translated one-to-one with the word Dawei, and the word "Taihe" is Yuan Mingkong after understanding its meaning, and picking it out from the Dawei dialect can be considered to correspond.

"Taiheju?"

"Taiheju, Taihelou, Taihewu are all OK."

"Hedier is talking about this teahouse, right?"

"He said it's at the intersection, it's still big, it should be!"

Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong looked around, and there was no second teahouse comparable to Taihe as far as their eyes could see.

On the way here, the two discussed, Yuan Mingkong sat in the teahouse and drank tea, and Zhao asked him to go to the garment shop.

Yuan Mingkong is a prince, and his understanding of the market naturally cannot be compared with Zhao Rang. Compared with these two places, of course, drinking tea is simpler, which is also in line with his temperament.

The only difficulty is that Zhao Rang can't speak the Western Regions. But Hedier had said that there were a lot of powerful people here, and that with a little money, they could hire a translator. Zhao Rang couldn't help but think of Zhang San.

If he's there, it's convenient!

Now that he is here, Zhao Rang also wants to see what the teahouse in the Western Regions is like.

The teahouse in Wangcheng is the same as the teahouse in Dawei Imperial City, it will not be so simple. Few people came for tea. As the saying goes, wine is a matchmaker, and tea is, of course, a matchmaker for "things". The more you drink tea, the more sober you become, and you get twice the result when you talk about things.

Especially in the early morning, Taiheju opens the door with the first rays of morning light. The front door was already crowded with people looking for work, masons, carpenters, Liba, and all sorts of craftsmen. They divided the open space at the entrance of the teahouse cleanly, the mason would never stand with the carpenter, and as for Liba, who had no craftsmanship and could only work hard, was the most looked down upon, and could only stand on the very edge.

At this glance, the bustling doorway suddenly became neat.

"Master!"

In the noise, Zhao Rang seemed to hear someone shouting 'master' in a powerful language, looked up, but didn't find it, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

"Master!"

"It's me!"

"I, Zhang San!"

Zhao Rang noticed that someone was suddenly approaching behind him, and when he immediately turned around, his right hand was already in his pocket.

Before going out, he deliberately tore the lining of his pocket so that he could reach out and hold the knife hidden in his coat.

"Zhang San!"

The one who was close was Zhang San, who Zhao Rang had just remembered.

"Why are you here!"

Zhang San rubbed his hands and said with a smile:

"I'm looking for work! The two masters came to drink tea so early? ”

In Chunhua Building, when he went upstairs to change the box, Zhang San had already left. He knew that he couldn't get involved in the rest of the matter, and he couldn't get involved. The gods fought, the people suffered, and Zhang San was very measured.

"Didn't you get paid to the black street?"

Zhao Rang asked suddenly.

Zhang San smiled, but did not answer.

In fact, Zhao asked them not only not to give Zhang San money to be a black street guide, but even the money for renting a carriage was paid by Zhang San himself. Otherwise, he won't be scolded by his wife when he goes home, and he will come out before dawn today to pick up work in front of the teahouse.

"Let's have a cup of tea together and have an early meal!"

Zhang San hesitated for a moment, but nodded in agreement.

Last night, Archie and Hydier appeared at the same time in Chunhua Building, which really scared him...... But at this moment, seeing that Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong had nothing to do, I felt that these two were really powerful! The mountain is not leaky, and the two people who have to tremble in the city can still retreat with their whole body in the middle of the two people who have to tremble in the royal city.

As soon as he sat down, Zhang San began to play his role as a guide, introducing Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong:

"Second master, the tea here is not worth two catties, it is all sold by the portion. Each type of tea is divided into two types, strong tea leaves, a little more expensive than light tea. ”

The two nodded:

"It's nature."

Seeing that the two understood, Zhang San pointed to a tea jar in the center and continued:

"The most drunk in the Western Regions is brick tea, and brick tea with milk becomes milk tea. The rest of the tea is all transported from Dawei, and the two masters are definitely not rare! ”

Zhao Rang likes to drink milk tea in the north, and he also dislikes that the tea in the north is not good enough, and the milk is not strong enough.

I've been in the Western Regions for so long, and I've drunk the milk tea well. I came to find that stranger today, and I was still beating it crookedly, Zhao Rang immediately said:

"I drink milk tea, I want it to be strong!"

Zhang San first responded, and then asked:

"Master, is it strong tea, or strong milk?"

Zhao Rang didn't think about it, and replied:

"It's all thick!"

Yuan Mingkong ordered a cup of green tea from Dawei, which was the Biluochun he was used to drinking since he was a child.

However, the spring equinox of the biluo here is very fine, there are two taels and one share, six taels and one points, and the best is ten taels and one share.

Even if it is two taels of silver for a piece of tea, it is sky-high, and ordinary people can't afford to drink it at all...... But think about it, this tea is transported from the south of Dawei over the mountains and mountains, and you have to beware of bandits on the way, and you have to beware of the sun and rain that will spoil the tea. These costs, combined with the rent and labor of the tea house, are reasonable.

Zhang San beckoned the guy to order, and he also asked for a milk tea for himself, but the tea was light and milky.

The guy brought a booklet, all of which were poor, and there were as many as forty or fifty kinds of types, which were not much more than the Great Wei Imperial City.

Zhao Rang opened and looked at Yuan Mingkong with great interest, and a shadow suddenly appeared on the booklet.

When I looked up, I saw two strangers standing across the table without saying a word.

Seeing that Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong noticed him, the two of them sat down even more unceremoniously.
