After many years of separation, the city of Luoyang is still the same as it was when Xiao Han left.
Now, when I revisit my old place, I can’t help but feel a little emotional!
Speaking of people, they are a strange animal. When they feel a lot, they like to drink a few more drinks!
Needless to say, the consequences of drinking a few too many drinks can be understood just by looking at Cheng Yaojin and Xiao Han lying together, entangled like octopuses!
With a livid face, Xue Pan gritted his teeth and ordered the idiot to step forward and separate Xiao Han and Cheng Yaojin who were hugging each other.
I don't know how much the two of them are in love, but they hugged each other so tightly! Lengzi and Xiaodong broke out in a sweat, and finally separated the two.
Thanks to Lao Cheng's knowledge that Xiao Han didn't like outsiders before he came here, it was only the two brothers who were drinking this time!
If this scene spreads out, Lao Cheng and Xiao Han won't have to be human beings tomorrow.
The dream of chopping off chicken heads and burning yellow paper lasted all night long!
The next day, when the warm sunlight shone along the window paper and onto Xiao Han's face, he woke up leisurely after a night of hangover.
Xiao Han rubbed his eyes and lay on the bed feeling weak. The first thing he did was to make up his mind to quit drinking! Although he had already made this decision a thousand and one times.
"Water, do you want me to die of thirst?"
After worrying about being drunk, Xiao Han finally felt a surge in his throat, as if there was a fire burning in it! He shouted in a hoarse voice, and the sound like nails scratching against the glass almost startled him.
"The water is here, who dares to thirst for you, Lord Marquis!"
Just as Xiao Han's voice asking for water fell, a voice with obvious resentment came from the side. If this sound wasn't Xue Pan, who was it?
His heart trembled suddenly, and the lost memory of last night instantly returned to Xiao Han's mind!
Knowing that he was in the wrong, Xiao Han didn't say anything. He took the tea from Xue Pan's hand with a dry smile, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp!
After all, they are still a couple made by nature.
Although Xue Pan barely slept a wink all night last night to take care of Xiao Han, but now seeing him greedily drinking water, she felt a little distressed in her heart.
"Is there enough water? Do you want me to give you another bowl?" Xue Pan's tone softened a lot as he took the empty tea bowl that Xiao Han drank.
"Hehe, that's enough!" Xiao Han heard the concern in Xue Pan's words, scratched his head, and asked with a smile: "By the way, where is Lao Cheng?"
"He was carried away by his own soldiers..."
When asked by Xiao Han, Xue Pan immediately remembered Cheng Yaojin's embarrassed appearance when he left the inn in the morning, and then he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
I wonder what kind of foolery Lao Cheng made to make the angry Xue Pan laugh so happily!
Xiao Han looked at Xue Pan's look and started laughing.
When a beauty smiles, she is full of charm, but when Xiao Han smiles, especially after a hangover, the slovenly Xiao Han smile is a bit scary...
"Bah, you still have the cheek to smile, you are about the same! Lao Cheng danced with his soldiers in his arms, and you ran out naked! You two brothers are so right!"
After gouging Xiao Han hard, Xue Pan, who had been smiling happily just now, immediately turned serious again. If the door of the inn hadn't been locked last night, it would have been so much fun!
A majestic prince and a great general! He got drunk and acted crazy at night. If he doesn't record it in the history books, it means that the Yan family's eyesight is not good!
"Go Ben? Me!"
Hearing what Xue Pan said, the sweat on Xiao Han's head started to flow down, and he quickly asked: "Then what? Did you catch me and prevent me from going out?"
"Nonsense!" Xue Pan rolled his eyes at Xiao Han, "Xiaodong and Lengzi just held you down! They almost made you run away!"
Xiao Han sweated profusely. He was now in a semi-fragmented state. He still remembered what happened when he was drinking, but he had no memory at all about what happened to Guo Ben!
Fortunately, according to Xue Pan's words, he should have been caught and did not go out to embarrass himself...
Smacking his lips, Xiao Han shook his head and simply didn't think about it. He tried his best to hold on to the bed frame and sat up unsteadily.
"What are you doing up? Why don't you lie down for a while and have a rest." Xue Pan felt a little distressed when he saw Xiao Han getting up.
However, Xiao Han shook his head: "No, there are still people I want to see today."
Xue Pan frowned and asked: "Who is it? So important? Male or female?!"
"Ahem..." Xiao Han almost choked to death on Xue Pan's words. He coughed twice and said, "You know the man too! Oh, I just met him in Hanzhong."
"Hanzhong? Still an acquaintance?"
Xue Pan suddenly became interested, tilted his head and thought for a long time, and told Lao Feng, Yuan Dake, Zhang Bao and others one by one. Unfortunately, Xiao Han just kept shaking his head.
"Who is it?"
Someone quickly became angry and clenched his fists!
When Xiao Han saw this, he quickly confessed: "It's Yang Kailue!"
The name Yang Kailue had obviously been forgotten by Xue Pan for a long time.
After standing there thinking for a long time, I remembered the extremely beautiful lake in Hanzhong and the graceful lotuses standing in half of the lake.
At the beginning of Tongji Canal, there are no lotus flowers here, only boats of various sizes busy on the water.
And it was here that a large flat-bottomed ship had been docked for three or four days.
This ship is so big that its tall masts are almost piercing the sky! Compared with it, the grasshopper boats that are busy unloading cargo and carrying people are really like the grasshoppers next to the carriage.
"Old Dong, do you think Mr. Hou can arrive today?"
After not seeing each other for several years, Yang Kai seemed to be getting richer and richer, with his round belly bulging out of his uniform.
The only thing that hasn't changed is that those little eyes are still bright and bright.
"I don't know!" Standing at the bow of the boat, Lao Dong replied neatly, holding on to the railings that had been polished to an extremely round shape.
This is the first time this big ship has sailed. It feels different to stand on my most proud work in person!
In one word, cool!
From the bow to the stern, it is more than twenty feet long! This length makes it far larger than the five-toothed ship!
Lao Dong believes that except for the dragon boat driven by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, there is no such big ship in the world today!
"Hey, why aren't you here? If he doesn't come one day, the boat will cost another day..."
Different from the old Dong who is purely engaged in technology, Yang Kailue’s ideas are much more pragmatic than him!
Such a big ship is equipped with dozens or hundreds of sailors, and the daily wages and food expenses are a huge amount!
Speaking of wages and meal money, it is only a small part. The key is that until now, Yang Kailue has not seen what the purpose of this ship is!
Pulling goods?
Today's society is basically a model of self-produced and self-sold goods. Where can we find so many things?
Pull people?
That’s even more outrageous. Who doesn’t know that the people of the Tang Dynasty took their local values more seriously than the sky? Some people never left home more than a hundred miles in their lives. If this was a passenger ship, Yang Kailuo would have to pay for all his coffins!
"Hey, if you ask me, after you get the Marquis, this ship should be put away and dismantled as soon as possible! This ship should not have been built in the first place!"
