"Don't be idle here, I haven't eaten at noon, I'll invite you brothers to eat and drink in the Eight Immortals~"

It was still Zhao Wenyuan who spoke, or it was better to say that it was better to be alone, and there was never a shortage of money in the purse.

"Okay, Zhao Dalang is arrogant!"

"Otherwise, it has to be a little uncle, we people really can't compare~"

The rest of the people echoed one after another, and Yuan Wenshao was naturally no exception, and it would be a big fool if others didn't go to treat.

Got up and shouted into the courtyard, "Peace, prepare my horses!" ”

"Okay, Childe~"

That's right, it is necessary to prepare horses, and several people are from the sons of nobles, and they usually ride horses when they go out, and they are all brave and rarely take carriages.

The "big black" that Yuan Wenshao rode was bought from the northwest by his grandmother at a high price, and the shoulder height was about 1.7 meters.

Riding a horse and walking slowly on the street, after all, it is in the city of Bianjing, although it is not forbidden to ride a horse, but there is nothing important and can not gallop wantonly, several people are small Karami in the noble circle, and naturally do not dare to openly disobey the regulations of Kaifeng Mansion.

Although it fused the memories of the original body, this was also the first time he went out to hang out, and Yuan Wenshao, who was sitting on a horse, looked around, looking at everything and being more curious.

The shouting of merchants on both sides is endless, and it is really a prosperous scene.

"Steamed buns, hot steamed buns!"

"This son, there is a fine silk today, do you want to choose two horses for the female dependents of the family?"

"A few ......"

The development of Cao Yun in this dynasty is quite developed, and there is an endless stream of merchant ships to be sent. Merchants from outside Kyoto are the most convenient way to enter Kyoto by water, so a large number of shops have sprung up along the banks of the river.

Bianjing probably has a population of more than one million, and rural towns (also known as "grass towns") have gradually developed. In these towns, commerce is thriving and the market is extremely developed, with more than 6,000 shops of all kinds in the city

According to the record of "Tokyo Menghualu", Bianliang City, Tokyo in the Northern Song Dynasty, "outside the Donghua Gate, the market is the most prosperous, where the food, the new flowers and fruits, fish, shrimp, turtles, crabs, quails, rabbits, preserved meat, gold and jade treasures, clothing, nothing more than the wonder of the world."

If its taste is ten, the guest will want one or twenty flavors to drink, and he will have it at will. When he was old, fruit melons, vegetables and vegetables were newly listed, and eggplant gourds (a kind of gourd, edible when tender) and the like, each pair of new ones could be straight thirty or fifty thousand, and the pavilion disputes were taken at a high price.

It was lively and lively along the way, and several people soon arrived at the place where they were eating, turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the reins, and walked inside with figure-eight steps.

Eight Immortal Building is a three-storey building built on the street, just looking at the outside is very extraordinary, the decoration of this into the inside is more luxurious, it is enough to be called "bead curtain embroidered forehead, lamp candle shine" all kinds of beautiful things treasure shame, four sides of the railing color painting eaves.

Although there are many restaurants in Bianjing City, in terms of business scale, it can be divided into three categories: the main store, the foot shop and the auction hotel, of which there are 72 main stores, and the Eight Immortal Buildings that several people come to can also be ranked in the forefront in the main store.

Like this kind of small second in a big restaurant, not everyone can be it, they all have to be very eye-catching, and they have a good memory, and some big people who often come to consume, you can recognize them at a glance.

So when he saw the people coming in, he hurriedly greeted him, and quickly nodded and bowed.

"A few sons, the private rooms upstairs have been reserved for you, is it still the same as before?"

"Hmm!" Zhao Wenyuan nodded, his momentum was dead.

Don't look a little silly in front of your friends, but you are also the heir to the dignified Earl's Court, and the entourage next to you began to give a reward.

The first floor of the restaurant is a special noisy individual guest area, Yuan Wenshao and a few people hurriedly walked upstairs, and did not stay on the second floor, and came directly to the private room on the third floor.

There is a cave here, open the window to see the Bianhe River in front, while eating and chatting while watching the boats come and go, this is also a unique flavor.

The service of the big restaurant is different, Yuan Wenshao and a few people just sat down, a beautiful maid came over, and they all held copper cups in their hands, which was specially used to clean the hands of distinguished guests.

"Childe, please!"

"Hmm!"

Yuan Wenshao put his hand in, his expression was very natural, these days he has become accustomed to being served, and his food, clothing, housing and transportation are all taken care of, and now he is probably not allowed to dress himself.

But after wiping my hands, I always feel that there is something missing, but when the pretty maid on the side takes out the pancreas, this is the reaction, there is no soap yet, of course, this matter is not in a hurry now.

Because outside the soil must first settle inside, you have to settle the affairs in the family, and you are studying your own plan to make money, after all, there is a private house given by your grandmother before her death, and now there is no shortage of money to use.

After the dishes were served, as the singers played, played and sang, Yuan Wenshao began to beckon a few good brothers to drink and eat, you have a cup and then I have a cup, the atmosphere is simply not too harmonious.

"Brothers, cheers!"

"Yes, if you don't get drunk today, you will leave all those troubles behind, and if anyone instigates us, we will look down on him!"

This wine was drunk for an hour, thanks to the low degree of wine in ancient times, otherwise it is estimated that everyone would have fallen down in shock.

"Brother Shao, Second Brother Xu, and Brother Yuan, in a few days, I will also enter the door in the shade, from the eight-grade ceremony."

"Brother Chang, this is a good thing, why do you still see your sad face?"

"Alas~" Zhang Jingchang even though he had something to say, but when he got to this side and swallowed it back, he could only shake his head helplessly.

Zhang Wenyuan was the youngest among the people, so the amount of alcohol was relatively poor, and after a while, he hugged his friend with blurred eyes.

Then he slammed his chest, and said drunkly: "Brother Chang, if you have any grievances, just tell your brother, don't always hold everything in your heart!" ”

"I..." Zhang Jingchang could only continue to shake his head, pick up the wine glass and drink it all.

Some words are not suitable for saying, this little eight-rank official, that is all the mother does not know how many times she begged the eldest lady to get it.

He was sad to see as a son, but this road is really not what he wants~

"Brother Chang'er, you are confused, even if you didn't show talent last year, but your age is not still young, you don't have to rush to take the road of Menyin~"

Yuan Wenshao saw that he was going to continue, so he hurriedly interrupted: "Okay, Pengju, let's continue to eat and drink!" ”

If there is a way, who doesn't want to be an official in a serious way, Zhang Jingchang has no right to choose, even if he is from the British government.

This dynasty stipulates that the shadow supplement people will be tested, requiring the shadow supplement people to not only be familiar with the Confucian scriptures, but also to learn the national legal provisions.

This makes it difficult for the children of bureaucrats to become officials. Moreover, the promotion of officials is slower than that of those with background, and the official is "examined" once a year, that is, the official's morality, ability, and service are comprehensively examined once a year.

For example, from the nine-rank general Shilang to the nine-grade political Lang, those with a background only need to take the "three exams", and those without a background need to take the "four exams".

Moreover, the promotion channels of the Enyin officials will also be restricted, and the supplementary officials of this dynasty are not allowed to serve as Taiwan officials, two-system officials, economic banquet officials, historians, and diplomats, so that the opportunity to rise to the top of the Enyin officials is extremely rare, and it can be said that there is no one at all.

"Alas~" Yuan Wenshao sighed.

I'm afraid of comparison, and now I still feel that my (original) life is okay, at least at home, although I am not favored, but I am much better than this friend.
