Chapter 52: Drinking Flower Wine (Seeking Collection, Seeking Reading)
Along the way, Li Xuan was thinking about how to send a message safely.
Although Duanmu Niangniang said that there was no danger in sending a message on this trip, Li Xuan naturally would not fully believe it.
Whether it is dangerous or not, you still have to rely on yourself to judge.
After all, Duanmu Niangniang has been trapped in the cold palace for about a year, and she doesn't know what happened outside.
"Anyway, just bring these eight words and pieces of iron to the poetry and rain of Chunfeng Building, I don't necessarily need to show up, just hide aside and see the situation first." ’
Li Xuan finally thought of a reliable method.
Let's take a look at Shiyu's attitude first, and then decide on the next action.
"Twitter."
Jinhua poked out her little head from Li Xuan's sleeve and looked around.
Li Xuan patted her head and said, "When you enter the city, don't come out, otherwise you will be arrested, and I won't be able to protect you." ”
"Twitter."
Jinhua immediately retracted her head, hiding in Li Xuan's sleeve and shivering, highlighting a timid mouse.
Li Xuan smiled, and then led the horse and walked towards the gate of Guangning Mansion.
The city is much more majestic than other county seats, the city is tall and thick, and there are columns of guards guarding the city gate, checking the people who enter the city one by one.
However, the inventory is not strict, at most casually rummaging through the package, and will not deliberately search the body.
Li Xuan paid the entrance fee for three copper plates, and then he successfully entered the city.
Compared with the desolation of other counties, the capital city of Quang Ninh Province is extremely prosperous.
On both sides of the street, there are hawkers.
All kinds of shops and restaurants are also lined up in the city, and the flags are flying.
From time to time, you can still see the guards patrolling, all of them are fierce, and they are obviously elite.
Quang Ninh Province is divided into the outer city and the inner city, and the outer city is naturally inhabited by ordinary people and a small number of displaced people.
Most of the people living in the inner city were high-ranking officials, wealthy families, wealthy merchants, and county officials and other imperial institutions.
As for the refugees who have fled, they are not eligible to enter the city, and can only live in the temporary refugee shack area outside the city.
Li Xuan took Jinhua for a walk around the city.
Although the people living in this outer city are ordinary people, the conditions are not too bad.
Whether it is a restaurant, a green building, a shop and other basic buildings, there is everything.
Li Xuan inquired and roughly knew that Chunfeng Building was opened in the inner city area, and it was the No. 1 Qinglou in the local area.
Local heroes, romantic talents, dignitaries, if you want to go for recreation, the first choice is Chunfeng Building.
The Qing people in it are all talented, but they are not comparable to the young lady of Goolbin.
This is like the difference between a high-end club and an ordinary footwashing room.
Of course, the consumption of Chunfeng Building is not the consumption of ordinary people.
Even if you open an ordinary seat inside, it costs ten taels of silver.
'The people of Simon Country regard this Chunfeng Building as an intelligence station, and they are also ghosts, not only can they make money and subsidize all kinds of expenses, but also, in this kind of place, the head below is big, and the head above is not good, and all kinds of information will be spit out! Li Xuan thought in his heart.
An hour later.
Li Xuan came to the door of the Chunfeng Building.
This Chunfeng Building is located in the prime area of the inner city, and the decoration is not as flashy as other green buildings, but reveals an elegance.
Outside, there were several luxuriously decorated and valuable carriages.
These horses, judging by their coat color and size, are good horses of the first class, and it is estimated that one of them will be worth hundreds of taels of silver.
Sure enough, those who can come to Chunfeng Lou to consume are all big dogs.
"Guest officer, please inside, your horse can be put aside, and if you need to feed it, you can also put it in the stable."
When a little guy saw Li Xuan, he greeted him warmly.
Li Xuan nodded slightly, and said, "I haven't fed this horse today, help me feed it, do you need to calculate the price separately?" ”
The little guy smiled: "That's not necessary, as long as you consume it in Chunfeng Building, this horse is fed for free." ”
"Hmm." Li Xuan threw the reins to the little guy.
After the little servant took it, he gave the horse to the waiting stable, and then led Li Xuan into the Chunfeng Building.
The layout of the Chunfeng Building is the same as the outside, and the layout is quite elegant.
The entrance is a bright and spacious lobby, and there are ink paintings hanging on the walls, most of which seem to be by famous artists.
Further on, there is a pool of clear water with red petals floating in it, giving off a faint fragrance.
In the center of the pool, there is a round platform about dozens of square meters with a red carpet.
Now.
There are Qingqi people playing classical and elegant music on it.
These Qingqi people are dressed relatively coolly, and through the tulle, you can vaguely see the white greasy inside, which is quite attractive.
However, looking at the area of this round platform, it is obvious that it is not only about playing music, but also about dancing performances.
It's just that it's still daytime, and there are fewer guests, and only some very vegetarian shows are performed.
Behind the round platform is a circular staircase leading to the second floor.
Looking up, you can see that in addition to the main hall on the second floor, there are also private rooms, and you can faintly hear the sound of beauty coming from inside.
The little servant said enthusiastically: "Childe, do you want a private room or a seat in the hall, during the day, the private room is cheaper, only thirty taels of silver, and the small one can also invite a Qingqi person to come over for you to play and cheer up." ”
Li Xuan shook his head: "No need, open a single table for me, and then serve a pot of wine, a few dishes of good dishes, and the price should not exceed twenty taels." ”
The minimum consumption of this Chunfeng Building is ten taels of silver, which only contains wine.
If you want other snacks, you'll have to pay for it.
"Okay, will you sit on the first floor or the second floor?"
"It's on the first floor."
Li Xuan followed the little servant, and soon came to a single table and sat down.
The little guy also gave a plate of broad beans and peanuts very intimately.
Li Xuan looked around and found that there were not too many guests, and there were only five or six people sitting in the lobby.
They are all Jianghu people with long knives and sharp swords at their waists.
It's not surprising that this Chunfeng Lou is like a combination of a bar and a clubhouse, and only in the evening is it officially open.
In broad daylight, who will drink flower wine?
Li Xuan ate peanuts and waited quietly, occasionally stuffing peanuts and broad beans into his sleeve for Jinhua to eat.
Jinhua is indeed easier to feed and eat everything.
According to her, they can digest even soil, but they don't have nutrients.
Just when Li Xuan was eating peanuts.
A few people in the neighboring seats were drinking and talking at the same time.
"Brother Wang, have you heard, Qin Kun, the thunderbolt of the owner of this Black Wind Village, has made an appointment to fight the leader of our Guangning Mansion Knife Catcher Organization, the Fire Dragon Lance Zuo He Daxia, the location is next to the reeds outside the city, the time is three o'clock tomorrow, do you want to join in the fun?"
"This Qin Kun is quite bold, he is wanted by the government, and he dares to take the initiative to show up."
"Official? If the government had done something, it would not have allowed Heifeng Village to be free for so many years, and soldiers and bandits have not been separated since ancient times. ”
"Be cautious, but these two are both famous figures on the innate list, so you can go and observe it."
Li Xuan listened to the conversation of these Jianghu people, and his eyes moved.
Zuohe?
Isn't this the name of the knife catcher I saw in the letter I got before?!
