Chapter Seventy-Six: Vientiane Pavilion (1)
Before they really entered, more than a dozen young idlers came out of Jubao Street and stopped in front of everyone.
Fortunately, they still seem to know the severity, and they are still some distance away from everyone, obviously they don't want to collide with Chen Fusheng and his party.
Shen Zui grew up in the capital, so he naturally knew the doorway, turned his head, and whispered to everyone: "Most of these people rely on Jubao Street to make a living, and they make some extra money by threading needles and threads for customers and shops, which is somewhat useful, but it is inevitable that there will be suspicions of raising prices to trap people, let me scare them first." ”
After saying this, Shen Zui turned his head, changed his stern look, and said: "I also grew up in this capital, I know what you want to do, the guide naturally needs it, but if you want to raise prices and treat us as wronged bosses, don't blame me for sending you to the City Patrol Division for a good education." ”
After hearing these words, these people naturally understood that the other party was a knowledgeable and backstage character, not a fat sheep that could be slaughtered at will, and a few people showed some disappointment on their faces.
"We don't need that many people, just four or five. Shen Zui smiled coldly, and named a few people from them, and naturally none of those who looked different were selected, and the others who were not selected, although it was a pity, they were too disappointed, and there were many people who came here, so there was no need to fight.
In this case, Chen Fusheng naturally did not come forward, and left it to Shen Zui to deal with, seeing that he had finished dealing with it, Chen Fusheng walked out from behind and asked casually: "Among you, who can first introduce the situation in this Jubao Street?"
A man who looked like a leader stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, although there are thousands of merchants in this Jubao Street, the most famous ones are three, corresponding to the four sides of my Daqi, each of which is composed of several large business groups. ”
Speaking of this, one of Chen Fusheng's group asked curiously: "Since it corresponds to the Quartet, why are there only three families?"
The leader smiled slightly, and explained: "You sons must also know that although this northern frontier is vast, it is sparse, and naturally there are no exquisite and expensive goods, most of the things they can provide are some furs and horses, all of which are large transactions, and they are not suitable. ”
Everyone nodded, and understood, in addition to these reasons, many of these horses and animal tendons were controlled goods, and in addition to the imperial court, ordinary merchants could not do this kind of business.
Someone started it, and everyone also asked, Cui Dongbi was born in medicine and was quite interested in the herbs of those overseas Fanbang, Ye Xin practiced martial arts, and asked where all kinds of weapons were.
Chen Fusheng looked at it interestingly, stretched out his hand to greet the eldest of them, and asked, "I don't need anything in particular, but I'm very interested in those strange things, do you know where these things are the most?"
When the middle-aged man who looked cautious and honest heard this, his eyes lit up and said, "Then you have to go to the Vientiane Pavilion to have a look, this is a gathering place for overseas goods, I don't know how many things are confusing." ”
Chen Fusheng shook his head secretly, the other party misunderstood what he meant, what he wanted to see was those things that were special in nature, and the other party felt that overseas things were novel enough for the scholar in front of him.
However, Chen Fusheng also roughly saw that the other party had a frosty face, and there were some traces of long-term life at sea on his body, maybe it had something to do with that Vientiane Pavilion.
"It's not bad to look at the overseas scenery," Chen Fusheng thought for a while and designated the other party.
At this time, everyone was basically divided, each guide accounted for three or four people, Shen drunk came to this treasure street I don't know how many times, unlike others to see the hunting heart, after seeing the selection of everyone, there was no one next to Chen Fusheng, thought about it, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go with Brother Chen." ”
The crowd began to walk forward under the guidance of their respective guides, and it was not long before they disappeared into the sea of people.
"Let's go too. Chen Fusheng laughed softly, he had already asked clearly as soon as he arrived, this Vientiane Pavilion was the most distant of the three, so everyone didn't plan to go with him, after all, all the way over, they would go, and if they went straight here, they would miss the shops along the way, and it would be a waste of foot strength.
Chen Fusheng naturally knew that in addition to the three major merchants, there must be a lot of things worth seeing next to him, but this is the first time he has come, he naturally has to choose the largest one.
After all, to be able to do this, the goods themselves have a layer of protection. It saves a lot of effort.
Walking in the crowd for a while, stopping from time to time to look at one or two stores with different architectural styles, and discussing with Shen Zui, although he has not yet started anything, just from this experience, Chen Fusheng already feels that this trip is worthwhile.
Walking and stopping, you will slowly reach the Vientiane Gate.
It seems that the merchants behind this also know how to follow the local customs, this Vientiane Pavilion is a vast five-story attic, and this momentum alone has suppressed most of the merchants next to it.
The Vientiane Pavilion family has a big business, and there is an endless flow of people coming in and out, so it is naturally impossible for someone to greet the two, but just the two columns of teenagers who greeted guests in front of the door made Chen Fusheng's eyes shine.
The two young men were both fifteen or sixteen years old, with extraordinary appearance, and did not have the temperament of a servant.
The first column is all black-haired and black-eyed, the standard Daqi blood, and the opposite one is called colorful, the skin color, hair color and even the color of the eyes are all Chen Fusheng has never seen, and there are many people with colored eyes on the road when he came, but there are definitely not as good as these teenagers to see
"I've seen it several times, but every time I see it, I wonder how this overseas person is so different from us people in Daqi that there are so many colors. ”
Walking into the door, Shen Zui whispered to Chen Fusheng and sighed.
Chen Fusheng replied with a smile and did not answer, but at this time, he remembered some speculations in the idle books he had seen from the Heavenly Desire Venerable.
Some predecessors said that in those barbarian places, the operation mode of heaven and earth vitality is completely different from that of this side of heaven and earth, which is divided into four categories: feng shui, fire and earth, and hair color and skin color are the accumulation and enrichment of these elements in people.
Some masters speculate that these Xiyi people are mixed with the blood of ancient demon beasts or alien races, and these colors are the true reflection of their alien bloodlines.
Some people think that both of these have some truth but do not explain all the problems, and in fact this is also a long-standing hot topic in the spiritual world.
But these words are inconvenient to say with Shen drunk.
