Chapter 42: The First Entry into the Western Regions

Western regions!

It sounds far away, but it's not too far from Shuzhou, after all, the two places are bordering.

The Western Regions came to trade with Shuzhou quickly, and the road was built very well.

Liu Xiao Fangla and his entourage were extremely smooth along the way, but they didn't encounter anything.

It took ten days for the two of them to walk to the Shuxi Pass, which was the Western Regions.

And what makes Liu Xiao feel the most amazing is that there are two black bamboo wood, and he and Fang La have a big wooden box each, and this black bamboo wood is conveniently packed in it.

There was no carriage to accompany the group, and the group was very smooth, if it was with a carriage, it might take another ten days to reach Shuxi Pass.

"Brother Fang, what does this black bamboo wood look like? I've never seen what this thing looks like all the time I've been carrying on my back. ”

Ancient times are not as good as modern times, there is no entertainment along the way, they are all in a hurry, and even the wine party is not allowed to drink, so as not to make mistakes.

Along the way, the two chatted more.

"Hahaha, my brother has asked several times along the way." Fang La sat on a fast horse, and the horse galloped, but Fang La's voice did not tremble at all.

"This black bamboo, can not see the light, born in a cave in Zhushan all the year round, is a precious yin wood, not to mention the sun, even if you see the moonlight, it will also hurt the yin of this black bamboo."

Fang La and his entourage left Shuxi Pass, and seeing that they were about to enter the Western Regions, they did not hide Liu Xiao, so they told the ins and outs of this black bamboo wood.

Liu Xiao's face suddenly realized, "My brother didn't expect that there would be such bamboo and wood in the world. ”

"Yes, we also discovered by chance that this black bamboo wood is extremely precious, and this one is worth 10,000 taels of gold, which is the preferred material for royal Confucian scholars."

"Make a pen?" Liu Xiaoqi said, "Isn't it that you can't see the light?" Is it difficult to write in the dark after making a pen? ”

"Hahahaha." Fang Lahaha said with a smile: "Brother doesn't know, this black bamboo wood raw material can't see the light, but after special processing, it can be used to make a pen. ”

Fang La's words changed sharply, and he said softly: "If everyone in the art of war uses this pen to make military aircraft diagrams, it will be more handy." ”

Liu Xiao was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but wonder that there was such a magical thing in this world.

"That's not right." Liu Xiao had an idea, and suddenly asked: "In this case, why don't you sell it directly to the people of your own country, why did you sell it to the Western Regions?" ”

"This." Fang La's face was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately smiled: "Hehe, isn't this a sale to the Western Regions where we can make more money, besides, it's just a matter of selling two." ”

Liu Xiao's face turned like this, and he continued to ask: "By the way, where are we going to the Western Regions?" ”

In fact, Liu Xiao was very strange in his heart, this Fang La was in the territory of the Dynasty, and he didn't mention a word, and he went out of Shuxi Pass, as if he didn't take care of it.

"Hehe, let's go to the Imperial City of the Western Regions, Xia Xincheng!"

Xia Xincheng is the imperial city of the Western Regions, and the two of them rode all the way and arrived here for five days.

Although this city is not as good as the Tianyu Imperial City, it is very characteristic of the Western Regions, and there are blond-haired and blue-eyed people from the Western Regions everywhere, of course, there are also people from the Western Regions who are of the same category as the people of the Tianyu Imperial Dynasty, which were relocated to this place by other countries earlier and left behind.

And the two places are traded, and the faces of the Tianyu people do not look so strange here.

Everyone followed behind Fang La, and after a short time, they came to a shop called "Zhushan Wooden".

"Brother, go, go in!"

Liu Xiao looked up at the shop and asked, "What is this?" ”

Fang La smiled, expecting this, "This is our Zhushan Gang's shop in the Western Regions, and it is also the faΓ§ade of our business." ”

After speaking, he walked in with Liu Xiao.

The shop is full of wooden furniture, and at first glance it looks like an ordinary carpenter's shop.

As soon as the two entered the door, an old man with gray hair came forward.

"Three masters, long time no see!" The old man looked at Liu Xiao and asked, "I don't know who this is?" ”

"Hey, old Zhang Tou, this is my deputy, Brother Liu Xiao, don't look at him young, he is a master of congenital duality."

Hearing Fang La's words, Lao Zhangtou was excited, and hurriedly saluted Liu Xiao and said, "Yo, it turned out to be the third deputy in charge, and Lao Zhangtou is polite." ”

Liu Xiao didn't know what the identity of this old Zhang Tou was, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

"This old Zhang Tou is the shopkeeper of our shop, and he is responsible for the bamboo business of our Zhushan Gang in the Western Regions." Fang La saw that Liu Xiao was slightly cramped and explained: "The same! Lao Zhangtou is also the old housekeeper of our big boss. ”

Only then did Liu Xiao understand that ordinary people are qualified to be in charge of Heizhumu's business, and their identities must be different.

"I see! It turned out to be Senior Zhang. Liu Xiao hurriedly returned the salute.

"Hahahaha, brother, don't see outside, Lao Zhangtou likes others to call him Lao Zhangtou, if you call Zhang senior, he will not be happy."

Hearing Fang La say this, Liu Xiao hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, then I will change my name to Lao Zhangtou." ”

Lao Zhangtou smiled and waved his hand, and said: "It's okay, don't see the two masters, this time the two of you have worked hard, you have to rest here for a few days, and I will take care of the rest." ”

Liu Xiao and Fang La glanced at each other, then took off the wooden box on their backs and handed it to Lao Zhangtou.

Old Zhang Tou was thin and weak, holding two large wooden boxes between his arms, looking very funny, and staggered towards the inner hall.

In less than a moment, he walked out, as if he was a few years younger, and his face was filled with a sense of relief.

"Hehe, two masters, the matter is over, you have to stay here for a few more days, relax and then return."

Although Liu Xiao had many questions about this transaction in his heart, he knew that this was definitely not the time to ask.

He said, "That's my first time in the Western Regions, and I must relax and relax." ”

Before Liu Xiao's words fell, Fang La patted Liu Xiao's shoulder and said seriously: "Brother, my brother has to take you to put it well tonight!" Pine! Put! Pine! ”

Lao Zhangtou looked at the two of them with a "I understand you" expression and smiled.

The summer new city at night is better than that of Jinyang City.

Crowds of people coming and going, merchants and hawkers shouting everywhere.

The shops on the street are brightly lit.

The personalities here are extraordinarily enthusiastic, and when they see Liu Xiao and Fang La dressed, they know that they are tourists or businessmen who come here, and they greet them very warmly.

Let Liu Xiaopo have a sense of liveliness in the night market in the past.

What's more to mention is the beauties here, Rao is Liu Xiao has been in the Red Moon Tower for so long, but when she sees the local beauties in the Western Regions, she will unconsciously have a trace of ripples in her heart.

As the saying goes, My Fair Lady is a man who has to ask for something.

All the way up, Liu Xiao is behind, but the three masters said that they should take themselves to relax and relax all the way.

Liu Xiao herself didn't know what special relaxation there was in this place.

The two of them walked on the main street, and after a short time, Liu Xiao smelled a lot of mixed aromas, which made him feel too familiar.

Fang La turned around and smiled, "Brother, let's be there soon." ”

"Brother Fang, you have been selling Guanzi for so long, you will bring me to the Qinglou in the Western Regions?"

Liu Xiao smelled the smell of those incense powders and knew that he had arrived in the Qinglou.

Fang La was originally lustful, otherwise he would not have come to trouble the Red Moon Tower for the sake of the Organ Tower.

"Hehe, he is worthy of being born in a Qinglou, and his younger brother's nose is sensitive enough." Fang La smiled, pulled Liu Xiao and walked quickly in the direction of the Western Regions Green Building.

After a while, the two of them arrived in front of the green building.

The girl who was soliciting customers at the door saw the two of them coming, and stepped forward to take Fang La's arm as she walked in front.

"Oh, this lord, please inside."

Fang La was familiar with it, hugged the girl's fragrant shoulder with a smile, and walked in.

Liu Xiao had no choice but to follow him.
