Chapter 105: Seeing and Hearing in the County

Mo Chen walked along the road to Wei County, his figure was fluctuating along the way, and his speed was extremely fast.

I saw that Mo Chen's feet on the ground were walking alternately at an extremely fast frequency, and they seemed to be spinning as fast as a wheel. And between the steps, the distance between the two feet is also very far, just three or two steps between the nearly ten zhang distance.

From a distance, Mo Chen's whole person seemed to be flying close to the ground, and in a trance, his body could travel a very long distance.

Moving forward at full speed at such a speed, it didn't take much time for Mo Chen to complete the journey from Lianqu Village to Wei County, which ordinary people might take a day or two to cross.

It wasn't until he saw the low city wall of Wei County that Mo Chen stopped his rapid figure and walked forward slowly.

Following the road, crossing the city gate, and entering the county seat, Mo Chen asked someone at random and inquired about it, and learned the specific location of the place he was going.

While walking through the unfamiliar county town, Mo Chen looked at the environment around him.

The bluestone and brick-paved streets fill the gaps with mud and sand, and the road feels fairly smooth when you walk up.

Wooden rice barrels and noodle barrels are placed at the door, neat rice bags and noodle bags are placed on the shelves, and there are huge rice storage boxes and noodle storage boxes in the house, which looks crowded and cramped.

The classification of various colors of fabrics is obvious, neatly placed, and there are long cloths of various colors hanging down in the house and hanging straight down, these fabrics used to display the cloth surface set off the whole house colorful, this is a cloth shop that can gather crowds at any time, cloth village.

There are also a variety of other shops with different operations and decorations. For example, pawnshops with high counters and fences, grocery stores with various miscellaneous items, money banks, rouge shops, restaurants, teahouses, restaurants, and other shops are lined up on both sides of the street.

Although the products are different, these shops have one thing in common, that is, whether you look at the plaques or the frame of the house, you can see some traces of the years on them, and these shops should be old stores that have been open for a long time.

Pedestrians come and go on the street, and from time to time people walk into the shops on both sides, and after some picking, bargaining, they are satisfied with picking up the goods they have chosen.

It seems that Wei County is an ordinary county town that is not much different from other county seats, but Mo Chen keenly noticed some dissonances.

Along the way, passing through various shops, Mo Chen didn't even see any shops selling foreign goods.

You must know that in this era, unless you live in a remote corner of the deep mountains and old forests, it is difficult to see any foreign things.

And the reason why foreign gadgets are so popular. Not only because all along, under the high-pressure rule of the Qing court, the common people have been very depressed. Therefore, as soon as the Qing government was unable to prohibit and did not dare to prohibit these strange things bought and sold by foreign merchants, this unique thing suddenly opened the eyes of the people and captured their curiosity, and it was natural that this kind of thing became popular.

It's also because these foreign gadgets are very convenient and easy to use. For example, a businessman buys a mechanical watch that can be used to keep time accurately, which is very useful for businessmen who have business opportunities when time is a business opportunity. Most merchants who need to travel long distances are equipped with watches, binoculars, etc.

For example, the pencil bought by the reader to make writing more convenient is not only lightweight, but can be carried around, without carrying a heavy inkstone and ink, grinding for half a day before each writing, and half a day to dry the words after writing. Scholars who need to write a lot often carry a few pencils with them, and older ones have glasses.

For example, the matches used by ordinary people are cheap, and they can be wiped directly, and they can be lit directly with an open flame, without using flint and steel, and they have to wait for the sparks to float for half a day before the dry firewood can be ignited. There are also kerosene lamps that replace traditional candles and are used for lighting at night.

There are also most working workers, if they are sick, they like to buy Western medicine that is directly prepared in advance, and they can take whatever medicine is sick and have a quick effect. Of course, Western medicine is also very marketable.

Where most of the people in the world are useful, foreign goods are useful, and of course, foreign goods have risen.

Although these things were brought about by the foreign powers that are now bullying the Qing government and oppressing the common people, it is undeniable that they are very easy to use, so the acceptance of the people is also very high.

For such a county with a large population, not seeing any such thing appear, it still made Mo Chen feel a little weird in his heart.

It's just that Mo Chen is not a businessman, and when he sees this situation, he feels that he has seized a business opportunity, or wants to explore the reason behind it, and take a look to see if the foreign goods here can't be sold at all, so no one sells them.

After all, there are more strange things in this world, and Mo Chen just feels that this situation is a little unusual, and he has no intention of delving into it.

Moving all the way, Mo Chen soon arrived at his destination.

It's a big yard with the gate wide open, and people are constantly coming in and out.

Stepping into the courtyard door, Mo Chen took the entire courtyard into his eyes at a glance.

Although the courtyard occupies a large area, there is only one entrance. At the back are five rooms connected side by side, with no left and right side rooms, and in front of the house is a large open space.

On the left and right sides of the clearing, a large number of log piles of different heights were deeply embedded in the ground. The stake is thigh-thick, and only one foot can stand on the top plane. As soon as he saw these wooden stakes, Mo Chen knew that they must be used to practice plum blossom stakes.

At this time, there are people on the wooden stakes on the left and right sides, stepping on them, turning around, and moving flexibly. There were also people in the open space next to the wooden stake, who were waving their fists and practicing over and over again, accompanied by the shouting and shouting in their mouths.

Because there were constantly people coming in and out of the courtyard, Mo Chen's entry did not attract anyone's attention.

Seeing this, Mo Chen followed the people who walked in front of him and came directly to the middle room.

As soon as he entered the house and saw the situation inside the house, Mo Chen became nervous and his expression became solemn.

The room is arranged like a classroom, with an aisle in the middle, and rows of forward-facing chairs on the left and right, and people from outside consciously sit down in order after entering.

There is also a row of seats at the top facing these people. There were five people sitting on the seat at this time, and it was these five people who didn't look young that made Mo Chen's expression tense.

Because Mo Chen could see at a glance that these five people were all imposing, and their muscles and bones were extremely strong, far beyond ordinary people.

This turned out to be a Grandmaster Master of the Five Transformation Levels!
